SECRETARY WINDOW AND THE TIGHT MONEY
MARKET.-There appears to be no ground for
supposing that Secretary Wind0m will at this
time offer to redeem the bonds embodied in the
1O5th call without rebate of interest Promi-
nent Treasury officials maintain that statements
to that effect are without the slightest fOun-
datiOn. They contend. moreover, that such
action would not relieve the stringency
of the money market, inasmuch as
the outlay from the Treasury would be
ulatOrs, and the market left in equally as bad
condition as before the redemption occurred
Further than this there lis said to be no prece-
dent for such long anticipation of interest. 1t
is believed by some prominent financial experts
however, that the Secretary will soon make
additional payments from the Treasury. but in
what manner he will proceeded cannot now be
predicted with any degree of certainty.

Belcher silver mines in Pinol county. Arizona.
