THE NEW FINANCIAL SCHEME.
Secretary Boutwelrs Funding Bill and
3 the Proposed New Loan-Foreign OBJ
jections-Opposition of the National
Banks-Proposed Gold Notes.

Confirming the important financial intelli-
gence given in special telegram TO The NEWS
on Friday last, the Northern papers publish the
following dispatch:
Secretary Boutwell, has prepared, and intended
tohaye presented in the Senate yesterday, bill
TO fund the public debt, substantially ON the
plan proposed in his annual report, but the con-
sideration OF executive business prevented the
senator entrusted with it from submitting 1t In
omen session. 1t will be laid in the meantime BE-
fore the Finance Committee OF that body lor con-
sideratiQn during the recess. ,,..
The bA proposes first, q new loan not exceeding
twelve hundred millions OF dollars, principal and
interest eble in coin; second fXes the interest,"
at Az per cent, to be paid Semi-annualy, anu
that the same shall be paid TO european nolaeIs
third that the bonds, principal and interest," snall
>be exempt from taxation; fourth thae the Donds
known as fve-twenty bonds, snail pe received IN
exchange for the new bonds.
The reason that the amount OF the proposed
loan Is limited TO $1,000 100000, Is based on the
belief OF the treasury that 1t will reduce the
bonded debt by purchase OF bonds during the
present fiscal year 20 fourteen hundred ana nlty
millions ofdollars. The Secretary deems 1t pru-
dent to leave outstanding two hundred and ifty
million Of fve-twenty bonus. since TINS loan
was proposed by the department 1t has been eI
freely canvasSed, and mas peen received WIN

hos nrepared a bill to be introduced in Janaary,
nroydng for the issue OF gold notes or gold certi-
dcates by the Treasury OF all denominations ~
the exteil: OF $50 100000. 1t is cnimed that this

Boyce's Charley Balls colt Pee Dee. This race
was the most exciting OF the day, but was marred
By Pee Dee boiling the track within six hundred

friends claim that he would have won had Pee
Dee not belted.
THIRD-NlLE AND REPEAT.
Il. W. Richardson's John Eooper's colt against
ming both heats with ease.
This ended the regular races OF the day. Then

Sundown being vanquished. AS ] have already
stated, the track was heavy, and the best time
made was 212.

hoping that tomorrow will be bright day. There
will be six races, and there is much enthusiasm
on the subject.
