Latest News from Washington.
Compromise Financial Measure.


WASHINGTON, March 21.-The Committee
on Finance held special meeting to-day, at
which compromise fna1cial measure was
agreed upon, to be reported to the Senate
next Monday.
In its main features the bill will fix the
amount Of greenback circulation at $685.. :
O0o,0O0, thus lcgaliziDg the reissue of that
portion of the S44,00O.G00 legaI.tender re.
serve which is now outstanding, and making
it a part Of the permanent circulation. The
amount that has been rd8aued, and which is
now outstanding is something over S26, ,0O0,-
600.
The bill will also authorize free banking
on the national banking system, but will
contain requirement that legal.tepder notes
shall be retired from circulation proper
tionately as national bank-notes are issued.
This latter provision is regarded as a
measure of contraction, but the pre-
ceding authorization for keeping in
circulation the S26,0e0,000 legal.tenders
that have been received from the re-
serve is considered substantial victory for
the advocates Of an increased volume of cur
rency, who, it is understood, will claim in
the Senate that the principal having been
thus admitted as regards portion of the
100000 reserve, the whole of said re.
serve should be accordingly placed in circu-
lation.
