THE NEW FINANCIAL PROGRAMME.
WASHINGTON, April 30-The new financial
programme develops slowly, and there is real
ly not much prospect of any compromise that
the intiationists will accept. The Finance
Committee Of the Senate held a meeting to-
day and discussed the House Free Banking
bill, and decided that it was best to abolish the
reserves for cirouIations, but the Committee
are far from perfeeting a bill that the initiation
lists, who present a united front in the Senate,
will accept.
