sOmeihing About the Three Per Cent
Bonds and Notes.

WASHINGTON, February 22.-The size
and shape Of the new bond and Treasury
note has been planned at the Department.
1t will be larger than the old seven.thlties
or the fves, TO obviate q difficulty expert
enced with them. These bonds were 80
much like the greenbaCks in dimensions
that an abuse grew up, especially In the
Gaze OF the seven.thirtios. Many who
owned them cut of the coupons all at
once and then passed the bond as currency.
OF course 1t was worthless, and to defeat
the sw indie the Department was compel.
ed 10 order the entire bond 10 be sent to
the Treasury 10 have the coupon cut of,
and then returned. The iours on the other
hand, were 60 large that they arc unwiOldy
To handle and heavy to transport, being
about IS by "a inches. The new three per
cent will obviate both OF these difficulties
according TO the plan drawn. Fears have
been expressed that the circulation OF the
notes OF denominations less than 500
would temporarily initiate the currency.
The size hit upon will forbid this, 1t is be.
lleved at the Department. They will he
either registered or coupon as the pur.
chaser may elect. In either case they will
he 81 inches long or about an inch more
than the greenbaCk. The registered note
will be inches wide including the Dor.
der. The coupon certificate will be the
same length from right 10 left, but will be
10 inches from top 10 bottom. The fact
that every time a aregisterea bond changed
hands II would have TO be changed as 10
registry in order to transfer the interest
with It, will prohibit its circulation, 80
Tint the only danger was felt TO be, from
the coupon notes, but their size, s by 10
inches, 1t is thought, will debar II also.
The coupon bonds will be even larger,
having ten more years 10 run, and will be
ST by about Is inches. II Ia believed that
these pecuiarities will prevent initiation
even II the low interest should encourage
their use As money. .titlg.

THE MINING INDUSTRY.

President Gibson, before recent
bankers convention in New York speaking
of the varied moneyed interests of this
country, informed his hearers that no other
legitimate industry could show such large
and we'll sustained profis as mining dur
ing the past thirty years, in spite of the
fact that mining. az science, had not been
much more than experimental. This state
ment will bear the test of critical inquiry.
1t is not An idle boast delivered by a
nonentity to clap.trap an audience with a
speculative snare, but it is the thoughtful
and prudent uttersnce of prominent and
we'll known banker of New York, based on
carefully selected and thoroughly reliab' e
statistics. True, there have been many
ventures foisted upon the public that were
comparatively worthless; but in the main
mining industries have been productive of
enormous realization Tor the money in
vested.
