w
tary Of the Treasury has directed the
Treasurer 10 resume the issue OF oge
and two dollar notes under certain lin
itations. Hereafter the Treasury will
send notes Of these denominations TO
the sab Treasures aud National Banks
upon requisition, aud will pay them
out a. the cash room Of the Treasury
in sums not exceeding ten dollars at
sub-Treasurers will pay these notes
out under like limitations. Much Of
the inconvenience that has been expert
enced Ia bu,lacss clrC.cs by the sus-
pending issues of small notes. has re-
suited from the fact that they were
boarded to q large extent with the eA-
pectstion that they would command
a premium. Last week the L. 5. Dis
bursting officer made loud complaint be-
cause the Treasury would not issue one
and two dollar bills to be- used in pay
ing his warrants. aud yet this very
officer admitted he had locked up III his
safe over ten thousand dollars in these
denomations. Treasury officials believe
if in orders suspending the issue Of
dollar aud two dollar notes had not
been announced in newspapers no IN
convenience would have resulted to
business from temporary suspension.
The Treasury does not, however, hold
any unusual amount Of these bills.
