FRACTIONAL CURRENCY.
Organized Effort to Introduce It Into Cir
culation in Place of Small Silver.

Organized Effort to Introduce It Into Cir
culation in Place of Small Silver.
Especial Telegram to the Globe.l
WASHINGTON, Aug. 15.-At the next session
Of Congress an effort will probably be made to
pass a bill authorizing the reissue of the old
fractional or postal currency. The treasury
department is daily in receipt of inquiries
from Conqressmen In regard to the matter, the
purpose being to awaken interest in the SUBJ
ject. There has been of late somewhat gen.
eral demand over the country for fractional
notes. The principal reason urged in behalf
of the reissue is that notes were transmitted
through the mails without difficulty. Silver
is not, and postage stamps do not make an ac-
ceptable sustltute for fractional currency. In
that Particular, paper currency was much
more popular than coin, as is shown by treas
ury accounts. Fractional currency. when it
was ahoat, only came into the treasury for re-.
uemptlon when it was mutilated.
With fractional silver it is different. None
OF 1t has been coined since 1878, but it will be
remembered that before the passage of the act
for its redemption last year the market was
glutted with small silver. 1t was at discount
In some localities. The act providing for it's
redemption went into effect at the commence.
ment of the fiscal year 1879. At that time
there was but S9, COO of coin in the treas
ury. Now there Is $4,000, COO. The principal
difficulty that will be found in the way of an
attempt to reissue fractional currency
will come from the silver men. there
cannot be both fractional currency and
fractional silver. The former would drive
the latter ont Of circulation; as
the silver men do not brook sny
interference with their favorite medium Of
circulation, they may be safely put down as in
arms against reissue of fractional currency.
An effort was made some time ago by certain
business men on the Pacific slope and in the
South TO introduce one cent pieces into circula-
tion. Coins were shipped to leading firms in
business and every effort was made to familiar.
ize the people with them. Letters received =
the treasury department show that but little
success attended the effort. The people re-
garded five cent pieces as small enough and did
not care to handle pennies. The large demand
for one cent bronze piec q which kept the mint
at Pniiadiphia busy come time ago, has fallen
of and there is NO difficulty now in promptly
filling orders.

On the 26th of July the Oshkosh Mort h,uestcg.n
gave an account of Patrick Murtry Of the town
of Nekimi, who up to the 2lst of that month
had been without food for AZ days, and with.
out drop of water for 10 days. Since that
time, as before. his death was hourly expected
but most remarkable to relate he lived in the
same condition until Thursday last. Auenst
on which day he expired. The circumstances
attending the case have been published. He
was afflicted with softening of the brain, and
paralysis of the nerves which supply action to
the muscles OF the throat so that it was i'm.
possible for him to swallow either food or
water. 1t was precisely sixty.two days that he
lived without food, and thirty-four days with
out even drop of water. Along towards the
last he lay insensible, and slow breathing was
the only evidence Of life left in the body.

KFLLY STEALS MARCH ON THE REGULARS.
Especial Telegram to the Globe.l
New YORK, Aug. 15.-John Kelly has stolen
q march on the regular Democracy. His State
committee has issued call for State conven.
tion. to meet September g. to nominate q
State ticket. If the regular Democracy will
not endorse his nomination, Tammany will
claim that the rival faction party does not
want harmony, and Is willing to perpetuate
strife, and imperil the Democratic cause in
the national contest. lf the regulars should
happen to be satisfied with Keily's ticket it
will be tail feather in his cap, and would do
much to restore his political prestige. In
either event Kelly exp-ots to make valuable
capisal for Temmany Hall. The regular DEM
ocrsts are very much disgusted at this trick of
kelly's, which was unexpected 1t had been
hoped that through the mediation of the
national committee differences would 50 far be
harmonized that only one convention would
be held. but now two conventions are assured,
and unless by some miracle they agree on the
same ticket, the chances of harmonizing the
party in this city are very slight, and then the
Tammanyites will probably continue with the
Arthur-Kelly compact in force and are ex-
pected, as usual, when there Is a fact .onal
fight. to be ready to sacrifice the State and
national tickets to improve their chances of
getting their local of1o 8. The prospects, of
reconciliation have not been very brilliant, but
they are not as encouraging now as they were
