the market in due time The bill therefore, nearly
as might be, accommodated the views Of the Senate
the House. and the Secretary OF the Treasury, ana
all were much better satisfied than they expected to
be. The House conferees had objected to the en-
poyment OF agents, and that part OF the Senate bill
had been abandoned by the Senate, but with the
agreement that the Secretary might use sum not
exceeding one.halt Of one per cent for the purpose
OF engraving, printing, issuing, aoVertsing anu us
The House conferees had agreed to this with the
assurance that there would be no attempt to exer-
else a power not given them to appoint special
agents, but that the bonds would go on the market
generally, and that those who exercise any agency
in the matter OF putting the bonds on the market
will receive their commission In other words the
business would be open to everybody, and there
would be special agents. Another point OF difference
was as TO the section allowing interest on deposits
OF gold in the Treasury, and It had been agreed 70

new national banks to use these new bonds as the
bssis of their circulation.
Mr.. Garfield inquired whether the option as to the
three kinds of bonds was to be exercised by the
banks themselves or by the Treasury Department.
Mr.. Schenck expressed his belief that the bonds
deposited by the banks would be just such
as the Secretary should think proper to issue in
bonds would Se therefore OF mixed kinds. The Sec
retary would not issue the IS alone, nor the ANS
alone, nor the 5s alone. There was good reason TO
expect that the Secretary was right in his conclu-
sion that persons for the sake Of getting IS would
be very glad to take some 4s and that he could thus
whether hSh to banks or To individuals.
Mr.. Garfield inquired whether it would be in the
power OF the Secretary TO say tnat new banks SnOuO
deposit only per cent. bonds?
Mr.. Schenck-No, sir; nothing OF the kind.
Mr.. Judd opposed the report OF the conference
committee. II per cent. bonds were to be issued
free from all manner Of tax, and II half OF pei
cent. to be paid for commission he did not see
that the country would save much by the operation
But his great objection to 1t the unfairness Of
discriminating against the new banks to be organized
under the Currency bill just passed by compelling
them to use the new issues of bonds 1t continued
for all purposes the monopoly OF the existing banks
lie hoped the report would be recommitted witt
the view of expunging that section.
Mr.. Wilson (Oho) expressed similar views.
Mr.. Cox opposed the report: First Because it di'
not provide for a uniform rate OF interest. Second
Because It was job for agents at an expense o
seven and half millions, which would eat up th
saving in interest Third. Because it would max

The Spanish Question-An Hopes of Peace
Gone.
LONDON, July 12.-The Telegraph says further
statements made by the English Minister last
evening in Parliament discourage all hopes of
peace. Even were Prussia to reply as France
apparently desires, the fact would afford no
assurance.

CHERBoURG, July 12.-The Vigil de Cherbourg
says all the steamers now in that harbor
keep their fires banked, not only to embark
provisions to any threatened point, but to be
ready for more active service.
The Spaniards Take Interest in the Quarrel
The Spaniards do not apparently manifest the
least concern in the situation. Paris journals
note the contradictory report of the attitude of
Italy and of France on the Prussian question.
Some of the reports say Italy is favorable to
France, others that she leans towards Prussia.
1t is believed that if war is declared the Cham
bers will vote the entire budget Paris journals
also contain report of the arming of Prussia.
Prussia will establish an entrenched camp of
25 600 men at Larrach, within a few miles of
of Basle, on the French border

The Array Bill
The House has disagreed to the Senate amend
ments TO the Army Appropriation bill, which
consists of the bill fo~ reorganization of the
army and for fixing the pay thereof, and insists
upon the bill which originally passed the House.
They have asked for a conference committee.
The probability is that the bill reorganizing the
army will fail on accosnt of the disagreement of
the two houses.
The Tax BiII-Incomes.
The conference committee on the Tax bill has
finished that part of it that relates to the reduc
ton of taxation and is now upon the tariff Sec

continuing the income tax two years and no
longer. The tax on incomes of corporations is
to be continued but one year, while the tax on
the incomes of individuals is to last two years.
