4 FINANCIAL PUZZLE,


The recent conversion Of fifty millions of
par cent long bonds had a most singular fnan-
cisl consequence. Tie transaction merely
changed one form Of government indebted
ness to another The national debt was not
increased OF diminished by dollar. Yet
look ct the effect that was produced. Before
the conversion was made, Government secrd-
tics taken altogether were worth 20 cents
in American gold, and greenbacks were
worth GO cents, gold being quoted at 145:-
700 millions Fed bonds worth III 20 81 100 00o010
SSD millions legal tenders At Gc.--..: sl7,50o,n0
Gold vnlno OF whole .817, 500 900
The changing Of the Legal Tenders INTO
5-20s knocked down the value OF bonds three
per cent, and currency two per cent here
Is the present gold value OF the Government
obligations:
go millions bonds II & cta. 500 900
100 rrlllions legal ie1dc1s At 6...... 4Gs COO
Present cold saine.. 1,sH SOD 600
Actual depreciation. IS, ,000, 900
Here there is depreciation Of feighty-two
millions In gold, In the selling value Of the
Government securities and Legal Tenders.
We have seen no satisfactory solution OF the
cause Of this depreciation. Why sbould the
mere changing Of fifty millions oi interest
bearing Legal Tcnders into gold interest
bonds have the effect of reducing the selling
value Of The Government oblicatious BY
cighty-two millions Of dollarsl Who can e1-
