NEW YOIIK , July 13. [ Special Telegram to Tin : Br.n. ] Tlio saino easy condition was reported by hank onicers this morning as was found yesterday. Money was fairly abundant nnd call loans wcro renewed at 8. Currency is said to bo flowing in with tolera ble freedom from the country , and , best of nil , London started the market with some strength , which sot prices generally on a higher level than at yesterday's closo. After a gradual decline , better prices again ob tained. Western paper coming duo Is being paid off , and the demand from the country for accommodation is exceedingly light. 1 Helped the Market. Stocks opened strong , and yesterday's purchasers , In many Instances , took profits. After tlvj market sold down a little. There was some talk nb'bUt gold imports nnd that helped the market. Tliero was some foreign buying of General-Electric. It closed yes terday at 02 Jff. opened today at 01 f , and declined to CU 1-8. Vandcrbllt stocks ucro in motion hut have apparently overcome the effects nf the attack of the last two days. Now York Central , which closed yesterday nt Oiljf. sold up to 100vf and back to 100 , where It settled. Foreign bankers said this morning that no importations of gold had been ordered ; that figures ottered in Ixnulou are well enough , but holders gave no encouragement to would- be buyers. Still several houses wcro watch ing exchange quotations closely , and when the market Justifies it. importations may bo looked lor. It is only the difference between the bullion value of metal sovereigns that hinders gold Importations at present. There was a break in Colorado Coal and Iron of 10 per/cunt / , from ! iO to i > 0. The slump wan duo to a report that the ilirctors would declare a dividend on preferred stock in scrip instead of cash. This was duo to the fact that collections wcro slow and to the uncer tainty regarding the silver situation. C. P. Iluntington says : " 1 have Just tele graphed San Francisco and the regular divi dend will bo declared on the capital stock of the Central Pacific from the oftlco o ( the company within a few hours. The company lias more than earned the dividend and it will bo promptly paid. " Moro Hopeful I'cellngft , This afternoon the hopeful feeling among the bankers became oven more pronounced. Frederick D. Tappon , president of the Gallatin National bam : , said that ono of the most necessary things was the resumption of the former relations between the sub- treasury nnd the Clearing House. No Clear ing lIoUHO certificates were issued today ami none retired. Mr. Tappcn said money would bo easy right along nnd within a week or ten days there would bo a superabundance of currency , particularly notes of small de nominations. Some of the banks would iirobably bo asking that their Clearing louse balances might bo paid in loan cer tificates rather than currency. It was- possible there might bo more loan certifi cates Issued to some small banks , but if the present conditions continue the certificates will bo steadily reduced and by the cud of three months possibly all will bo canceled. Some amusement wab caused by the alleged utterance of some Chicago-bank olllccrs , as reported in tno morning papers , rcllcctingon the Now York bunks. A prominent bank president of this city expressed thn opinion of many bank presidents on the subject when ho said : ' 'That is merely some wind off lake Michigan. It would be much uioro to the purpose if the Chicago banks paid their debts to the New York banks and talked afterward. There are very few banks in Chicago that did not borrow every dollar they could from the Now Yorn banks during the recent stringency , and they could not have continued business if wo had not sup plied them with currency on these loans. " Surprised nt tlio Denver Munlfesto. Another western utterance that caused some amusement among bank onicers hero was the reference In the Denver resolutions , to Now York banks. "I air. surprised % ai those statements , " said a national bank president , "because wo have extended every possible accommodation to Colorado banks , especially to the banks of Denver , and there fore 1 can hardly believe that the best poc- plo of that city endorse the sentiments con tained in the resolutions.

( Now York Herald Cable Special to Tun Bur. . ] At five minutes to 3 this afternoon the olcctrlu bc'ta ringing all over the house announced to the members ot the Kclehstag the tiuio had come when the first vote would bo taken slneo the dis solution on t 'o military bill. As the clerk called out tlio names and the members answered yes or no , It was soon evident the division would bo close. Caprivi , his hands clasped together in front of him , a favorite attitude , upright , motionless , earnest- looking , sat listening to every vote. Ahl- wardtnnd Llobcrmnnn , the famous socialists , absented themselves. When Bismarck's turn cnmc ho gave a sort of unwilling aye. All eyes were watching him and involuntarily a hundred tongues repeated "ayo" in the tone in which ho said It , . At twenty minutes past 3 Caprivi hastily dispatched a tele gram to the kaiser , saying the llrst clause of the bill had carried by cloven votes , 1S ! > to 178. One member who would have voted against the bill arrived too late. Thus , after the desperate efforts made by the government , In despite of concessions made and the treachery of the Poles , the government has only managed to scrape to gether a majority of ton in n house of IIU7 members.

BEHMN , July 13. The first clause of the army bill was passed today by eleven ma jority. This is considered to amount to the passage of the whole bill. ' Count von Hompcsch , clerical , made the llrst speech iigainst the army bill. Ho made an elaborate defense of the clerical party's attitude toward the measure. The clerical party , ho said , had never been a confes sional or church party , although it had un dertaken , as its noblest duty , the protection of llomnn Catholicism in Germany. This , however , had not been its solo duty. The clericals had striven to maintain the federal character of civil liberties and to further the moral and material interest of the classes. These have been the party's ideals. The charge has been made that the party had swung to the left , -had abandoned many of its conservative traditions and had driven from Its ranks those who declined to accept its now tendencies. All these charges were unfounded ; in/act the party was still in' the best sense conservative ; its desire was still to fortify popular obedience to the authority of church and state. * Chancellor von Caprivi replied that ho was Highly pleased with Count von Hom- pesch's dclinition of attitude of the clericals , but , before modifying his previous opinion of them , ho must await their action toward the authorities of the central government and the states. Meantime their policy was binding them to the democrats. They were always hostile to the government. Dr. I..lebur , clerical leader , said the chan cellor might call the clericals democrats if ho pleased but the fact was that in Bavaria and Wurtcmburg they wcro true royalists , although opposed to the excessive develop ment of the imperial idea. The clerical party felt the necessity of opposing the nrmy bill because convinced that the people were unable to bear the contemplated increase of military burdens. Chancellor von Caprivi remarked that Dr. Lieber's assurances as to the royalistic senti ments of the clericals in Bavaria were very gratifying and it was to bo hoped that in the future Dr. Weber would remain faithful to his declaration on tills point. The chancel lor also referred again briefly to the swing to the left caused by Dr. Liober in his party. Count von Moltke , free co nscrvativc , saii that the present bill alonecould secure for Germany an honarablo pcaoj after the next European war. Dr. Licber rose before the debate closed to protest against the chancellor's last insinua tion that ho'was a democrat. Nobody , said Dr. Liober , had over had any reason to doubt his loyalty to the king. In the vote that followed the members declared themselves thus : For the bill , 18 Poles. 13 radical-unionists , 10 anti-Somites. fi'J national liberals , 27 free conservatives , 158 conservatives,2tlcrlcalsand , 8independents ; total , 1U8.
