It is expected that during the present season some alterations will be made in the building owned and oceupied by the Cosmos Club that will make the club quarters more commodious and the building better adapted for its present uses. The one-story addition on the south side will be built up to the height of the main building, and the same use will be made of the space on the east side. The main entrance will then be at the extreme casternend of th building and the present entrance will b closed. Projections will be added on the H street front and the additional room obtained in the upper floor will be utilized for club chambers, THE ERECTION OF FLAT BUILDINGS. Apartment houses or flats designed for those who aro nuable to pay large rents are not | numerous in this city.

Some drummers were diverting themselves in a smoking car by repeating episodes of so-called “cheek.” All but one had related an instance; when he was called upon he drearily said. “I don't remember anything worth telling— in fact, my wife has completely dazed my mem- ory of matters of that kind by a fine sample of her own stock. You see when I got back from my latest trip I went home at something after 9 o'clock in the evening. “Well, there was my house lighted up from top story to basement; carriages were leaving the door, and affairs seemed to be going inside ona grand scale. I let myself into the basement with a latch key and walked into the dining room.

The Tangle Over the Gold Question Not Yet Unraveled. THE NEW YORE BANKERS THINK THE SECRE- TARY OF THE TREASURY SHOULD COME DOWER TO & BUSIXESS PROPOSITION — wR. CLEVE- LAED'S DECLARATION INSPIRES CONFIDENCE. Special Dispatch to The Evening Star. New Yorx, April 29.—Wall street bas been in » tangle all the week over the gold question, and bankers do not yet see daylight. Secretary Carlisle has come in for more than his share of abuse, but he has skilifally shifted the blame on Assistant Treasurer Jordan, | who has been too enthusiastic in his efforts to get the New York banks to come to terms. Three distinct propositions were made tothe government to surrender gold coin for legal tenders, but in each case the government has suggested an amendment, which the banks could not accept. The only relief to the situation has been the assurance of President Cleveland that the par- ity of gold and silver will be maintained, irre- spective of encroachments on the legal tender reserve. This frank announce- ment has satisfied foreign _ bankers, prospect of gold going to a premium has dis- appeared. Even the Canadian banks, which were the first to send specie out of the country by express, have taken a calmer view of the situation, and no longer drop the hint that | their branch houses over the border are short of ready cash, thus necessitating a transfer of gold from this center. In the meantime many out-of-town instita- | tions, including the Boston banks, came to the astistance of Secretary Carlisle, and by sur- rendering a part of their stock of gold, kept the legal tender reserve above the $100.000,000 mark. ‘The patriotism of these banks has been praised by the government officials, but it is more than probable thatthe shifting of such large credit balances from the New York banks will bring about @ more un- settled condition of affairs and that the remedy applied in increasing the treasury’s gold reserve is worse than the disease. FEELING O¥ THE NEW YORK BANKS. ‘The New Yori banks are not jealous of the desire of their out-of-town correspondents to heip the government, but they do not relish the transfer of balances, as such action might tend to disturb the money market. Some of our expert financiers also concend that the present financial policy of the government has been shaped to favor the wes: aud southwest and that the presidents of the New York banks have been treated hike lot of school children, ‘That there not been more friction between the banks and the subordina‘e representative of the goverment who has been intrusted with the recent nezouations, is simply due to the courtesy of the bank — presidents, who contend tha: when Secretary Carlisle is | to conciude e wil be no Compromise that will tevenis oF the couni: ready « businese-like bar- lidiculty in reaching nure to the business in banks have made : to yield uncon- ditionally a meiallic reserve, and while that a bond issue will be they ure periectly willing w accept w tiavie gation which Jean be used in settling clearing house | balances and counted 1m’ calculating their Ali acknowledge that Mr. Carlisle cousciendous and nonest, as well as self-reliant. ba: be has shown ‘such an in- | dependent spirit tha. be will have to meet the bankers half way before they will listen There ix no doubt that contlicts of jon on the questions of currency and ~ coin will ‘continue to enist between vazious sections of the country, and the south is very much prejudiced against what it pleaves to term Wail sreet dictation, but as the New Yors banks hold twice as much | gold all the principal cities outside oi tie metropolis put together, it is to New York the Secretary of the ‘Lreasury will have to come for relief unless he concludes to market a iot of bonds abroad. Atal events the New York bans do not care to be patted on the back, und preter that such treatment should be applied to their neighbors, even if they be accused of a iack of patriotism. REDEEMING FEATURE OF THE WEEK. The great redeeming feature of the week, which has to a large extent restored confidence, has been the sharp break in foreign exchange. There was an extravagant speculation in sterling ten days ago, and a number of specuiators cleared the market of ail the bankers sixty-day bills in sight, on the supposition that gold would be at a premium | before June 1. The unmistakable language | used by President Cieveiand 1m bis prociam:- tion relative co the payment of gold for tre: ury notes demonstrated that these fears were grocndless, and there hus been a corre- sponding scramble to dispose of the exchange bought on speculation. Some of the principal | importers were also imbued with the idea that | the country was going to the dogs, and so bought sigh: sterling and cables at the top prices of the year. Now that this demand bas been sausiied it is very*difticult to gold shipments, and knock the price of sterling down to the gold importing pomt by veiling bonds abroad, now that London bas started in to buy our ce curities in earnest. ‘The most sensational event of the week in | | Green Bay, Winona and St. Paul railroad, with the stock market was the a pe cent drop in Toledo, Ann Arbor and North Michigan with her own health-giving ingre- dients—made with a skill that man can never acquire.

The bears jumped to the conclusion at one time that the road was going into the hands of a receiver, but several capitalists stepped forward and signified their illingness to protect the floating debt of about $600,000. ‘The coupons due next Mon- day on the 63 will be promptly paid, but the ley family will have to sacrifice a snug fortune to extricate the road out of its present dilemma. President Samuel Sloan of the Lacka- wanna was extremely anxions to let the pub- lic know that he was in no way interested in the stock or securities of the Ann Arbor road, and came out with a statement in the middle of the week that he had never owned a share of the stock in his life, and that the connection he had with the enterprise was in his official capacity as a director of the depth of 100 feet. After the mountains are passed it divides into four branches, the longest of which measures more than forty miles, while all four of 120 miles. inde- pendent of the smaller ditches by which water Was distributed over the soil. Except in Tare instances these smaller ditches have been filled’ and in that of the desert are ob- scured by the sand storms that prevail, but the larger one is perfectly distinct and measures sixty-four feet in width with an average depth of twelve feet. Through this way the water for the support of the citios between the Salt and Gila rivers was conveyed, and 1,600 square miles of country, now destitute of ‘all vegeta- tion except the Sabuara and an occasional de, was irrigated by it. This canal reached to within a short distance of the Gila river, and the water was taken from the River Salt for the apparent reason that at this point the north bank of the Gila was 80 high that they were unable to reach the cur- rent with a canal, and they evidently knew of Ro way to raise the water to the level of the surrounding country. This part of the desert is covered with ruins, and must have been at oue time the residence of a teeming popula- tion. ——_+e-+_____ A Narrow Escape.

The bull leaders have recently been keeping in the background, and the stock market has been turned over to the tender mercies of the room traders and bear operators. Mr. James R.

I alluded to you us an ‘individualist.’ I'm a ‘collectiv- ist,” you know.” ———+e+____ On the Hest Terms. From the Chicaco Tribune. “I notice you didn’t speak to Mr. Dullpate, Miss Quickstep. Aren't you on good terms him?” On the very best possible terms. I am not acquainted wiih him.” Mr. 8. V. White has been in better trim to face any depression in values, because he marketed his Manhattan stock when the first note of alarm was sounded. He has since been trading principally in sugar, while occasionally he has accepted a commission order. The wings of several of the boldest room traders were clipped during the past week by the rapid drop in the low-priced specialties, including Ann Arbor and Hockiug coal and iron, and the floor of the exchange is really now without a prominent leader. Mr. W. E. Connor is expected back from Flor ida next week, and bis return will be gratifying to those who pinned th faith to his vice on Monon, which has fallen almost as rapidly as anything elee on the list. Some startling disclosures have yet to be made in tue recent Tennessee coal and iron deal, and Mr. De Bardeleben is reported to be again in trouble, with 25,000 shares of stock to sell on which the margin is exhausted at 16. The Cammack party have been persistent sellers of general electric and Chicago, Bur- lington and Quincy, the latter on the report that the March earnings will make a deplorable exhibit. Whisky trust was unfavorably af- fected by the resignation of Directors Corning and French and the anuouncement that the trust intended to be its own distributor to save commissions.

Nortuern Vacifie bas, however, been feverish and it is doubtful whether Mr. Viilard will be able to float # collateral trust loan, now that he has been deserted by Mr. Brayton Ives and a number of reputable banking houses in this city. ‘The Pittsburg, Cincinnati, Chicago and St. Louis new loan of $3,000,000 was a great suc- cess and was over-subscribed last Wednesday. ‘The Pennsylvania is in the market for 2,000,- 0u to buy rome dock property in this city and will obtain the money from Drexel & Co.
