THE RESUMPTION OF SPECIE PAYMENrs-PhEs-
IDENT GRANTS VIEWS AS STATED By HIM
sELF-HIs FORTHCOMING MESSAGE TO con-
GREss.
In the course OF o long conversation with MIN TO-
day during which the President detained many cali
crs that ho might deliberately express his judgment on
the finances. he said that the recently reported inter-
view with him that subject was mainly accurate.
81 was not presented said he In effect ''but
was not fully reported" He said the published re-
port OF the Interview fair In this, that did not
dctract from nor obteratc the points which were IN
his mind at the time. These points, briefly stated,
are:-
Flrst-The President believes we can commence
specie payments now and he desires TO put himself on
record as entertaining that opinion before ne goes OUT
OF Office He Is decidedly convinced that the currency
can be brought to q specie basis within month.
Second He does not believe there will be much do
mand for gold under his proposition, because the
holder OF greenback could get government gold
bond for 1t, paying tour per cent interest.
TAird-He urges issue OF not more than
slOO OOO 900 OF such bonds to fund greenbacks the
bonds TO be valid as bank reserves deposits and
curly for circulation.
fourn-He has new figures to show an increasing
believes everything Will come out right pretty soon
tor the project" He goes far TO express his COLI
victon that gold will bo at point not above TWO
per cent premium and that II will speedily emerge
from its hiding places
Ffth-The President instances the fact that the i'm
ports OF specie Tor the six months ending January
we're nearly 81, ,000 900 more than the exports
iSirM-He intends to send to Congress an explicit
message upon this whole subject He would have
written 1t to-day but for great press Of other bus-
ness II docs not seem probable now that 1t Will
reach Congress before Saturday He WILL wrtc It TO-
night or tomorrow, but the counting the electoral
votes will occupy tomorrow and perhaps Friday In
Congress.
The President, as II adopting by inspiration the
suggestion at the close Of the HERALDs editorial ar
tcle Of last Monday. is bending his whole mine upon
the financial question He has collected great many
Aaures aud statistics and in the conversation to-day
he showed deep interest In everything relating to
the business and commercial relations OF the country
