loan seem to be coming into the Treasury
Department fully in accord with the ex-
pectations of its success which prevail, and
1T is probable that the amount received up
to the present time will foot up at least ten
millions. The Merchants Bank, Of Bos-
ton, to-day subscribed for five hundred
thousand dollars of the new loan. In re-
spouse to the inquiry whether banks may
substitute their six per cents. for the new
five per cent. bonds without the risk OF
hereafter being required to put in for por-
ton thereof four and four and a half per
action on the part Of banks, so far as he

have any change made in the manner Of the
subscriptions, but that they should remain
undiSturbed until the end of the ten years
required for the maturing of the new bonds.
