How the RefundiDg is 10 be
Done,

/ Washington, 24.-The decision finally
reached by President Garfield against
the proposed issuance of call for an ex-
ira session of Congress, appears TO give
almost universal satisfaction to republi-
cans, both in and out of Congress, and
the more closely the financial situation
and the laws relative to refunding sre. ex-
smined, the more clearly it is seen that
there is really no need of an extra ses-
sion for re unding purposes. 1t is sseer-
tanned that under certain nesrly-forgottsR
laws e. acted in 1924, the treasury de-
partmens has power to borrow $50, OO0,-
900 on certificates of deposit, at any rate
Of interest not exceeding per cent, and
it is confidently believed that this full
amount can be thus obtained as tempo
rary loan at 3 or 81 per cent. and the
money applied Immediately to the re-
demptinn of maturing bonds, leaving
it to the future 10 determine whether it
shall be repaid to the extent ofover 500,
100000 by sales Of 4 per cents now
authorized, or the use of available cash
in the treasury, which, together with the
prospective surplus revenues, msy be ap-
piled 10 the redemption of maturing
bonds, under the authority granted by
Congress atthe last session. 1t is there
fore believed that $500, 000, 900 OF the out
standing bonds will be taken 10 manner
proftsble to government without Issuing
any portion Of the long term per cents,
and without sny additional legislation.

five per cent. entrance for all horseg out

ten per cent. for others. From present
indications there will be a number OF
entries, and should il be made post
stake there Is little question Of at least
three eastern horses coming here to run.
