Synopsis of tho vctn.
The following is a synopsis Of Hayes S
veto While recognizing the Importance
of adopting some measure for re-
funding before adjournment Of the present
Congress, he believed it would be wise
for tlie secretary to oifer..34 per cent bond.
He objects to the present bill on account
Of the 5th section, which would tend to
destroy the national banking system, and
which IS not an essential part of refunding
measure. He complains Of the RADICAL
change which takes from banks
the right to deposit any of tie
bonds Of the United States to secure
circulation, thus dcprivins the bill! holder
0; the best security which banks are able
to give by insisting on the deposit OF bonds
of the least value of any issue by the
government. In referring to bank taxation
he believed that the bill would practically
prohibit the organization Of new banks and
encourage monopoly Of the national bank
ing system. Section five would undoubted-
ly imperil this system.

ing their studies at the college. Among
his friends in this city Mr.. Malone is
known as quiet. retiring young man who
