WASHINGTON NOTES

Comptroller Knox, in his annual re-
port, advocates the immediate retirement of
tho greenback circulation. According to the
showing made by the Director of the Mint, the
coin now in the United States aggregates more
than 5000, 100000. This, with the issues Of the
national banks, The Comptroller regards as
sufficient for the needs Of the country.
Col. John Hay, of Cleveland, has as
sumed the duties of Assistant Secretary Of
State, vice Seward, resigned.
The war between Postmaster General
Key and the lottery dealers is to be settled by
the Supreme Court An agreed case is to be
sent to that tribunal Immediately.
Small notes are very scarce, and the
refusal Of the banks to circulate silver creates
demard for small gold coins. The Philadel-
phia mint has accordingly been directed to en-
ter upon the coming Of small gold pieces.
