Paying Out silver,
New York Tribune, Oct. sO.l


The silver payments at the Sub.
Treasury continue to excite the mer-
riment of Wall Street, and indeed of
the whole business community. Six
hundred dollars were paid out yes
terday, nearly all having drafts avail
ing themselves of their privilege of
drawing So in silver. Mr.. Floyd, of
the Assay Office, however, said yes
terday that the office had received
instructions from Washington to
make its bullion fund available so
far as practicable in carrying out the
project of the Treasury Department
for silver resumption. This bullion
fund includes about 100000 in sill
yer. The Government, he said, can
at any time obtain possession of 500
600 ounces of fine silver, which will
make 1892, 900 in coin. The officers
of the Philadelpi4 mint have been
instructed to use two-thirds of its
entire capacity In the coinage OF sill
yer, until otherwise ordered. Un-
der this arrangements the mint can
turn out from 100000 to S1,5OOOOO
per month. Mr.. Floyd thought that
with this system the exchange of sill
yer for greenbacks would be practi-
cable within thirty days, as only a
comparatively small number of
greenbacks would be presented for
such exchange. Silver would be in
request in many parts of the country,
however, as soon as it ceased to bear
a premium. At least 100000 in siI-
yer would then go to Texas, where it
was wanted to move the cotton crop.
Many large orders for silver, az soon
it is at par with greenbscks, had
been received by bankers in this CT
ty, not only from Texas, but from
large manufacturers in other parts of
the West, who want it for the pay
ment of their employees; and also
from the prOprietors Of several lead.
ing New York hotels, who desire il
for similar object. Mr.. FLOYD said
that there was now a small demand
for silver form South America. AS
soon as that is supplied he thought
that the price would fall. 1t would
not pay, he said, to ship silver to |
Europe, and there is an immense |
amount of silver coin in Germany. q |

World.

4 feature of the murder law of the
State of Milne has recently come to
light IN the course of a discussion
which has not heretofore been gener-
ally known. 1t seems that by the
law of 1869 the Governor and COun-
Gil are empowered to review capital
cases in the State, snd that immedi-
ately before the expiration of the
year OF the criminals sentence the
Governor submits to the Council all
the evidence. If the Council after
examination decide that the execu-
tiOn must go on the Governor issues
the warrant for execution; If they
vote for communication, that course is
followed. II is said that since the
passage of the law IN every case,
with q single exception, the council
has voted to commute the punish
Insnt of murderers condemned to ex-
ocution and that the Governor has
acquiesced in their decision. Thus
the death nenalty has been practical

At last we are to have from one OF

portraits of distinguished officers and
maps of the various scenes of opera
tions. Referring to the forthcoming
work the New York World says
"This ia 4 careful and deliberate &C
count from the pen Of General Jo-
seph Z. j Johnston, of the Confederate
army, OF the events which preceded
his removal from the command of the
southern forces operating against
General Sherman in Tennessee and
and northern Georgia. Military men
have long been aware of the decis-
i've effect of that removal in favor
of General Sherman and of the I'm
ion cause. 1t was the personal act OF
jefferson Davis, resolved upon and
carried out by him i'll defiance of the
counsel and in contempt of the re-
monstrances of the 8blest soldiers of
the southern army and as General
Johnston can have no motive now
for Withholding the whole truth in
regard to the matter, the story he has
TO Tell will have real value for the
political as we'll as for the military
