tiou Il will facilitate very much ii small holders

An attempt IL being made to call meeting Of our
bank officers n order to give official expression TO
their opinions on the subject Of the Government
finances and what should be the future action of tao
Treasury Department. We know that such an ex-
preston would have great weight at Washington,
and that it is desired by the Committee Of Ways and
Means. The letter Of Mr.. GalIatin to Mr.. Hooper,
published few days since, is generally supposed IN
Washington 10 represent the opinion Of our banks
generally, which it certainly dOcs not. Such q
meeting il the members could agree with fair ap-
proach to unsnimity upon the proper course to 10
pursued by the Secretary vi the Treasury In raising
funds for the prosecution Of the war would be very
useful, Gs giving Dir. Chase the sentiment Of the
great money of tie country upon the questions
ofcurency and loans.
The telegraph to-day states that Mr.. Chsse ba
banded bis nine hundred million loan bill TO the
Chairman of the Ways and Means, and that be does
not recommend any further issue Of legal tender
notes. The street rumors, however, are to the con-
trary effect. One rumor circulating in bank parlors
is that when Congress getstogelhersgain MIR. Chase
will ask for authority to issue two hundred and nifty
millions Of legal tenders beyond his present authorl-
IT, and another rumor IL that he will propose TO the
banks 10 place to bis credit, TO be drawn for as
wanted, tho proceeds Of one hundred millions of
ssven-tbirlies at par, these notes 10 be distributed
|
vsstnent part of the plan is to make a simalta.
neous issue of legal tender notes sufficiently large to
facilitate the payment of the seeretarys drafts. We
yet both these rumos from bank Sources but do not
know upon what authority they are based.
The letter we published yesterday upon the subject
Of tho finances was written by prominent fnsncier
Of this city, and no: Californian as printed.
