Reissue OF Fractional Currency to
be altempfed

Washington, Aug, 23,-Several members
of congress have within the past month or
six weeks been asking information at the trea-
sury department in regard to the fractional
currency formerly in USE, as compared with
the fractional silver which has taken lis
place. This information is asked with a view
to awakening an effort to secure legislation
authorizing the reissue of old fractional or
postal currency. There has been of late a
somewhat general demand over the country
FOR fractional notes, The principal reason
urged in behalf of reissue is that the notes
were transmitted through the mails without
difficulty. Silver 10 not and postage stamps
do not make An acceptable substitute for the
fractional currency in that particular. The
postal currency was much more popular
than the coin is. This is shown by
the treasury accounts. Fractional cur
rency, when it was aHost, only came
into the treasury for redemption when il was
mutiatsd. With fractional silver il differ
eat. None of it has been coined since 1878,
but it will be remembered that before the
passage of the act for It's redemption last
year, the market was glutted with small sil-
yer. 1t was at a discount in some localities
The act providing for its redemption went
into effect at the beginning Of the fiscal year
1879. AT that time there was but So, 900, 900
of the coin in the treasury, now there are
$4,000 900. The principal difficulty that
will DO found in the way of the attempt to
reissue fractional currency will come from
the silver men. There cannot be both frac-
tionsl currency and fractional silver. The
former would drive the latter out of circula-
ton. As the silver men do not brook any in.
reference with their tsvorite medium Of cir
culation, they may be safely put down as in
arms against reissue of fractional cur
