Sterling exchange was quoted in New
York yesterday at 1OS4G 1922.

discount and sold by the Banks here at par
We heard of but little doing in incur
rent money, and no change in rates. Bank
Of Tennessee was inactive at Asa 4Sc buy
ing and soc selling. There were no large
lots bought or sold at these rates. Planters
Bank was firm at S3c buying and SAC sell

Nashville Corporation checks were dull

Tennessee bonds sold in New York on
the 3lst ulf as follows S37, 900 new at Coo,
$4,000 at 62sc, and $4,000 at Csc. These
figures show a decline of Be on the previous
days sales.
The Washington correspondent of the
Cincinnati Gazette telegraphs that paper on
the lst inst as follows:
Prominent bankers had consultation with
Mr.. McCullOeh and the Comptroller of the Cur
rency, and agreed upon the following BILL framed
By JnO. w. Ellis and Thos B. Page, Of Cincin-
natl. which meets thehearty concurrence of all
parties named
BE it enacted, etc, That for the purposes of
redeemlng and returning any compound interest
notes outstanding and held bg National Banks,
the Secretary of the Treasury is authorized TO
issue Temporary loan certificates in the manner
designated by section Of the act approved July
=, 1907 bearing interest at the rate Of not eK
ceeding four per cent. per annum, principal and
interest payable in lawful money. on demand.
and said certificates of temporary loan may con-
stitute and be held by any National Bank hold
ing or owning the same as part OF and not eX-
ceedl2g the reserve provided for in sections Il
and y Of the act entitled an act to provide q
national currency. etc, approved June 3, 1864,
provided that the amount issued shall not eX
ceed 100, 900 900 dollars"
The Secretary Of the Treasury says the bill will
relieve him Of all anxiety on account of com
pound interest notes. and will provide for them
IN such way as not to derange the business and
finances Of the country.
Senators Fessenden and Sherman, Of the
Finance Committee, support the measure. and it
will be considered by the committee on Tuesday
next. As this prevents contraction TO the
amount Of compound notes funded, and is
strongly urged by the Secretary, il is taken by
many as an indication that the Secretary is be
ginning to feel he has gone too far in his former
views upon contraction.
Money is working somewhat easier in
New York Our mail advices to the even
ing of the 3lst nit. report that the few
parties buying stocks for an advance argue
that there is to be an accumulation of
money at low rates, and that it will stimu-
late new advance in prices.
The following will show the fluctuations
in the New York gold market during the
past month:
