It Is understood that the Government bond syndicate yesterday paid over to tlje Treasury the balance of the gold remaining to be paid on account nnd the Secretaiy has certified for the last of the bonds to be Issued. The syndicate has now completed its payment for the whole Issue of bonds. It Is evident from thl?> that tlte Secretary has modified the contract with the syndicate requiring the Importation of one half tho. gold to be paid for the bonds. In accepting the payment of about one half foreign subscription In domestic gold and di recting Treasury officials to receive this, and certify for the bonds as against It, It is ^obvious that the syn dicate Is released from Its obllgatftfn' to -import gold against these bonds. The surplus gold reserve of the Troas ury will be $107,41(1,000 within twenty four hours. This will nettle the opera tion of the syndicate so far as pay ment for Its bonds Is concerned but It may be that the syndicate will Import niore gold later. Treasury officials will not discuss this nor can any Informa tion be obtained from the members of the syndicate. Not Modified. Washington June 25 ?

It was gen o tally expected by tlioqp Interested in the famous case that the petition -would bo granted. There w^ts an Imposing ar ray-of legal talent in. Judge Showalter's -onri. room when the decision was ren dered. Mr. Bijour, of New York, was present on behalf of the reorganlxatlon committee, (?reenim-t, .^lorrls and other members of the lighting minority were absent, and Kduifi Walker, their chief counsel, was unable to be present. The court paid particular attention to the objection (tf tlie tJreenhut stockholders and creditors, that the court originally I had no jurisdiction to appoint a re* (?elver. He pointed out that in the i original Olnistend hill the defendant I corpora t (on consented to the appoint ^inent of a receiver. Tho ' corporation became a trust deed after the judge I tnent of oustef* had been rendered in the qui warranto proceedings by Jt?dge Gibbons for annulment of the charter, and the stockholders became bcneticla rles. The Olmstcad bill showed not only jurisdiction, but a good and valid ?attse of action In equity. The juris diction of the Federal court did not de pend on the failure or Inadequacy of legal or statutory remedies in the ex pediency of affairs, or the report made by the receiver.

A rlsp of more than a quarter in a sin gle ^onr is the more significant because iu'spite of recent advances the prices of 'commodities, as a whole, average a frac* lIon oTl per cent, lower than a year ago. Two influences of tremendous power eon: tribute to the rise, encouraging crop news and confident replenishing of stocks which have been for more twin two vonrs depleted to the utmost. hen bus iness payments have been so long, $10, (>00000,000 yearly less than before, It Ih not strange that increase should beat the rate of $11,000,000,000 a year when faith in the future Inspires general re plenishment of stocks.

The rush for supplies in Iron and steel resembles a "bear panic in i ho stock market." Because prices hre mounting tfvervbodv hurries to buy so that they mount higher.

It is undeniable- that works in operation are crowded with and others which have been Idle for years are preparing to resume. At the i?me time the most potent cause for the upward p^art in prices, the general belief that n oombinatlon of eoke pro ducers would raise the price to $l.oO after July 1. is apparently removed by war among the producers, and a fall to $1.25 in contracts for the last half of 1JA.d'vancos Vrt-nttnue in cotton goods. and are sustained by unusunl / doipand and scarcity nt a time \flien theinills are generally anxious to clear off old stocks.

In making the announcement tlTe Secretary said: "At. /the close of the financial year Ills Royal Highness, tho Duke of Cambridge, will relinquish the position of ehlef-in-contmand of the British forces, which he has held so long. Ho has devoted Ida whole life to the service and lias Identified himself with the army. It Is hardly possible that any one engaged in the civil administration of the army can make ,thls announce ment without feelings of emotion. We ean look hack W.lth admiration and grat itude upon his long career, which has been distinguished by constant Real, had marked by marvelous improvements In the army. His resignation has Imposed upon the Government a serious task. The Duke of Cambridge cannot be suc ceeded by any other otlieor who combines sueh large and varied powers amLablU Hes." f I ! The Government, he said, woirM ac* .cept and proceed la the premises Atpon the prlnolplfcs of the Duke of Devon shire's scheme of on army commission embodying a plan whereby the Secretary of State for War would be advised by a deliberative council composed o;f exper ienced officers. (Or I os of Hoar, Hear.) Mr. Balfour said' the House must all feel that the sevorouoo of -tlifc Duke of (Cambridge's connection with the army was an event which must move the country, for the moment, hut they must exclude this feeling from their con sideration of practical questions which could not he long deferred. It was cer tain. however, that they Avould never find any mail who would Inspire greater affection In the army or vdho would he intimated l?v any higher botibc of nubile dutv. as well as. his duty to the Queen and' to Parliament . Mr. Campboll-Ban nerman farther said that the appoint ment of comtnander-ln-chlef of the army woulij he maintained, but bis func tions would" be greatly modified* lie would he subject to the ordinary rules affecting staff officers and his office would he tenable for a period of ten yoars, which term would he capable, of exten sion If desirable. The commander-ln ehlef would be the principal military advisor of the Secretary of State for War, whose council would consist ot 'five, general officers. lt n . ... Mr Broderlck was not satisfied with j this auswefr and moved tha; the salary of the Secretary of State for AA .a r bo reduced 100 ponnds to cover, what he alleges, 'war a deficit in the ?rmy store*. iMr Ca m pbel 1 -Ba nnerm a h contended that "the estimate for small arms was amnio to render possible the mobilization of throe army corps of 110,000 men with sufficient ammunition. A .T. Balfour, the Conservative leader in t lie House, 1?*M that the vot*. asked for would not provide a proper supply ? Jos "ohaiuberlain, tlio Liberal Union ist leader, said that the suppl^on hand was a long way behind what the Jap anese army had in the field. Geo. l>.t Goshen, formerly chancellor of the ex chequer, said he concluded after listen ing to the debate that using tlio word reserve in its ordinary (pcnsc Great Bri tain had no reserve at nil. . The division was then taken and tho government was defeated by a vote or 1.12 to 12ft. , . ,# ' During the debate on the war ontl mates the Hon.

Mr. Gampbell-Bannornva? siUd that the estimate. comprehended pnottgh to meet the current needs. The result surprised both sides. After tho Houao had sgaln ca.med down to biislnoas the lobbies were crowded with members discussing the situation. i The consensus of 6pinio?- among tho Liberals was that the government ought not? to take the extreme step of dissolv ing Parliament on its defeat in such a minor matttfr. ? , ? ? In conversation Mr. Campbell-Banner man said tlie government must find an other Secretary of State for War. A Conservative, replying to charges that it was a trick division, denied that there was any ntrategem. He added that the government's defeat was tho legitimate complement of a series of In cidents connected with war office mis /"sevend Liberals. including Sir Charles Tilth*. voted against the government, in an interview Sir Charles said he hoped the government would not tako its defeat seriously. It might g<ot out of the difficulty by putting back a vote for the Secretary of \\ ar s salary.. Doubtless when this was proposed the House would agree to it. Mr. Campbell-Banncrman Immediate ly held that the committee report pro gress on the estlmntes, which was agreed to Mr..

Tho 4<oltl Hi-nt rvc, Thv Treasury gohl reserve, as tho result of the Uelmont, Morgan syndi eate paying In $1,000,000 of gold, be came today in.tact tvgalu for 111? flrot time Rince December 14, 1894. It stands now at Sl00.s30.aft6. There Is rdlll ow ing from the syndicate S6.000.000 111 gold. Under the agreement catered Into February Sth, 1S95, the syndicate paid $65,000,000 In gold for S63.400.000 in four per cent. United States bonds. The price paid averngM $lo4.4'.i1ti per St 00.. The bonds were yesterday quoted at 133 1-2 bid. In addition to the bond purchase the syndicate agreed to pro tect tho gold reserve and lit doing so have It is said supplied foreign ex change at a loss, materially cult lag down their apparent margin of profit from the entire bond transaction. Now that the gold reserve ttt intact a ques tion that cornea up to vex tho Treas ury Is tlie issue of gold certiilcates against gold deposited. Under the law while the gohl is under the $100,000,000 limit gold certificates cannot be Is sued against gohl deposited but when it exceeds that limit the law directs the Secretary of tho Treasury to Issuct such certiilcates on the deposit ot Koldy'i'he Treasury it Is understood will discourage the issue of such cer tificates but will not of course refuse to do so If demanded. The cause of the disinclination to Issue gold certificate!* at this time is that the margin of ??free gold" is and necessarily will be, small for some time to come and any such action now looking to the Is sue of gold certiilcates might have to be revoked within a few days and would have to be rescinded should ?the gold reserve again fall below, sioo.ooo.ooo. II ft n t y Action, The cm ls$r Alert left Panama for Callao last Saturday, the announce* ment having been delayed until today through "an overslKht" as It is ex plained at the Navy Department. It la also aald that the Alert's mission la to relieve the armored coast defence v>*sel Monteray, which has been at Callno since May 20t!i, and permit that vessel to work her way north. Naval ofllccrs generally are mysterious as to the apparent haste Indicated by tho Alert's sudden departure when It Is remembered that her commander Capt. Ide, was detached by cahlcgrapi last week on account of Admiral Aleade's charges against him and tho ship is now in charge ofl.it. John H. C. Coflln. her executive officer. Com* inander Franklin Uanford is under orders to leave New York by merchant steamer of July 1st and assume com* mend of the Alert. If the vessel had waltvd at Panama for him a few days unti| Joined it, the Government would have suved hits mileage of 1, 600 rLjles and there would have been no demy ln?Mft assuming the duty. It is genJWfly believed that Amorlcan Interests In Peru (that country having recently passed through a revolution), are Injuriously affected. Some time ago Minister MacKenzie reported to the State Department that one of the greatest mining" and other great es tablishments In the country owned by Americans had been torced to sus pend operations because the Govern ment failed to protect their property, and this with similar reports was the Immediate cause of*'- the Monteray's cruise, so fur from elir own coast, which sho'fvas designed never to leave. The erulsefj Itange- has been at Guay aquil!, 760 \mlles from Callao, and could Jolrv the other ships If It Is net> canary to make a display of forco.
