TIE NATIONAL BANK QUESTION.

No npcIstoN REACHED AS TO TIE RIGHT OF THE
NATIONAL BANKS TO REDEPosr THEIR BONDS.
WAsHISGroN March 10.-A large number of let.
ters and kilograms has been received by Treasury
officials to-day from persons directly and indirectly
interested in the pending National bank question.
They all contain inquiries TO the probable nature
of the decision to be rendered by the Secretary and
especially request prompt notification when the
decision is reached. Those of the authors
of such communications who have been
answered have invariably been informed
that it is impossible at present to say what
the decision will be that the subject is under
the exclusive consideration of Secretary Window,
and that until his decision is announced no infOrma
tion can be lad. Immediately after reading the
letters of ex-Unted States Treasurers Spinner and
New bearing upon the subject, which were pub
lished in TIE TRIBUNE this morning, Secretary
Window obtained official copies OF them, with
view to completing his information as to the prac-
tice of the Department in similar cases Other let
tiers of like character, but not differing materially
from those already published were those discovered
to-day and also furnished to the Secretary: =,
The following ia tho text OF Section OF the act
approved june 90 1874. from which the regulations
of the Department relative TO the retirement OF cir
culation and withdrawal OF bonds were derived
SECTION That any association organized under this
act or any OF the acts OF which this an amendment de-
string TO withdraw it's circulating notes. In whole or in
treasurer Of the United States in sums
Of 3i''' not les. than $4,000. take up the
bonds which said association has on deposit with the
Treasurer for security OF such circulating nOes
which bonds shall be assigned to the bans In the
speted in the nineteenth section OF the National Bank
act and outstanding notes OF said assOcaton u an
amount equal TO ega-tender notes deposited shall
he redeemed at the Treasury OF the United states aud
destroyed as provided by law, provided that the
amount VI the bonds deposit for circulation shall not
be reduced teOw $4,000.
At D. m. to-day Secretary Window said it had
been decided to consider the question further at the
Cabinet meeting Tomorrow, and that IL Is very
prolab bic his decision will be rendered Immediately
thereafter.

LIVERPOOL MERCHANTS INTERESTED.



deputation of the Liverpool Incorporated
Chamber OF Commerce yesterday held conference with
Lord harrington Secretary of State for India, aud pre-
sented memorial urging the Government 10 appoint
Commissioners to represent England and especially
India at the Monetary Conference
Lord Harrington said the Government arc considering
the matter but that he not prepared at present TO
make definite pledge. He pointed out that there was
some difficulty owing to the terms 10 which the invita-
tlon OF France and the United States couched As
originally wOrded 1t seemed to commit the Governments
accepting It to the adoption OF bmetalism and an ad
mesl0n that the maintenance OF gold STANDARD is I'M
pohtc The Government could not participate 10 any
conference which assumed their willingness TO abandon
the gol9 standard. Negotiations have consequently
taken place with view TO modifying the Invitation IN
order TO permit England TO accept IL consistently with
these reserves. England and India would willingly
adopt any safe aud prudent which might help
to rehanitate the value Of silver. 49,
Tue depntation appeared quite satisfied with LORD
HartingtOn's assurances
BlsMARCK's OPINION UNCHANGED.
In the German Reichstag to-day, Herr 5chOlz secre
tary OF State for the Imperial Treasury declared that
the Federal Governments resolved not to deviate
from the basis laid down coinage reform The sus
pension Of sales Of silver did not indicate tendency
toward bimetalllsm. He said Prince Bismarck was
phacay In favor OF the manten OF the status quo
Tue reform OF could only bo effected with his
full concurrence. The Monetary Conference AZ Paris
was not TO be an experiment by which one side would
gain and the other lose, but o united agreement Tor
avertug the dangers OF the future.
