WAsHINGToN, May 16.-The Secretary OF the
Treasury contemplates publishing, within few
days an official explanation of his financial policy
far rs II relates to the:execution Of the Resump
tion act Of January IA. 1875. In it he will show
that he intends to adopt no aggressive meas
ures, and that the course he will pursue
instead Of Gripping the industries of the
country or embarrassing its finances, will pro-
mote the interests Of both. His purpose Is simply to
execute, both in its letter and spirit the act proyd
ing for the redemption of legaltender notes on the
1st Of January, 1879. The method adopted viii be
that authorized and provided by the law. In ac-
cordance with the provisions of this act the vol
ume Of outstanding legal-tender notes Is now
being gradually reduced simultaneously with the
issue of new national bank notes; but at the close
of business to-day in the Treasury Department the
amount of greenbacks still outstanding was $751;
49l iOi in excess of the three hundred millions
the minimum contemplated by the act 10
be kept in circulation until January, 1879
To prepare for the redemption of this
$500 600 600 Of legal-tender notes in coin at the
time fixed, the Secretary contemplates the sale
Of 500, 100000 worth Of United States bonds at
par in coin, the proceeds Of which he will hold as
special redemption fund The sale of lj,000,0 900 Of
4la per cent bonds negotiated by the Secretary Of
the Treasury with the Syndicate last week, was the
first of a series of sales by which it is proposed 10
obtain this fund.
