A FORGED TELEoRAM.
Much indignation is expressed by the
Secretary OF War and AdIutant General

telegram purporting to be signed by the
A6jutant General and addressed 10 Gen,
Emory, saying: "You will follow out the
instructions as in the former dispatches:
all turbulent persons must DO put under
arrest This order must DO implicitly
complied with"
The forged dispatch was also telegraph.
ed North, last night, to several persons.
The Secretary Of War has determined 10
discover the lorger and has taken mea.
aures to that end. The actual telegram
sent to General Emory merely acknowl-
edges the receipt Of his yesterdays dis
patch.
THE NATIONAL BANK RRDEAIrIoN AGENCY
gives notice that in consequence Of the
exhaustion OF the five per cent bonds and
failure OF NA,iJLa. Banks to make prompt
and general response to tho request ior
an additional deposit OF five per cent OF
their circulation, 1t has become necessary
to stop the redemption OF National Bank
notes for short time. Remittances Of
National Bank notes which are now in
transit will be counted and paid for, but
those remitted after this date will be held
until notice is given Of resumption or re.
dempuons. Meanwhile the whole force
OF the agency will be employed on the
assortment OF the notes already redeemed,
In order 10 enable it 10 make calls upon
banks 10 reimburse the Treasury for their
redemption. 1t is hoped redemptions
will be resumed within two or three
weeks. The cessation OF redemptiops
need not prevent compliance with the
call Tor the additional five per cent de-
posit. The larger amount oflegal tenders
deposited under the call, the sooner the
agency will be enabled 10 resume redemp.
tions.
There seems to be some misunderstood.
ing as to the operation Of the additional
call. Deposits made under the call will be
treated simply as an advance from the
banks to reimburse the Treasury Tor their
notes redeemed, but not yet assorted. As
last as the notes shall be assorted their
amount will be charged against the addi.
tional deposit, and no request for reim-
bursement will be made upon the banks
making deposit until itshall be exhausted.
