Attempts to Drive the Trade Dollar out
Of Circulation.

New YORK. June 30.
Printed cards were hung up in various
places on the west side of the city, Thursday,
stating that trade dollars will not be re-
ceived after July 1, and announcing that
they were now worth about eighty-fve
cents. Holders of the boycotted dollars
were excited and nervous, and those who
had large amounts of them expressed
the opinion that the Government was a
downright fraud'' because it would not re-
ceive their coins for dues. 1t should, these
people thought, pay one hundred cents for
every one Of the dollars issued. Those per-
sons who had small amounts laughed over
the matter, saying that they would be able
to get rid Of the dollars without loss. Some
OF the brokers would pay ninety cents for
them, but the others would not give more
than eighty-tive cents. The committee
OF five appointed at the meeting of
farm-produce merchants to devise
means to drive the Objectionable dollar out
OF circulation was much pleased. Many
merchants who were not willing to sign tile
agreement to refuse the coin at its nominal
value after July 1 would not take them
yesterday except at. a discount. The cigar
makers employed by F. & A. Frey, of Cort-
landt street, informed their employers that
they would not accept the obnoxious coins
III payment of wages hereafter. The excite
ment over the matter was increased during
the day by the appearance of a placard which
read as follows:
DO not be deceived. Demand good money
1Or your labor and goods. Trade dollars will
not be received after July l, 1883. The Gov
eminent will not receive them for dues, but
WI only nj buy them at the price Of silver, now
about s9H cents.
Copies of this We're exhibited in bar
rooms, were posted on dead walls, and seen
IN all places where they could attract at
tentiOn.
Various opinions were expressed by prod
uce merchants as to what the Government
should do in regard to the redemption Of
the trade dollar. Some were of the opinion
that it should be redeemed at par, as its cir
culatlon had been cOuntenanced by the Ma
tlonal authorities. Others believed that the
Government should not be held responsible
Tor the losses of holders, and that the dol
lars should be melted into bars, ard the
silver sold for what it was worth. Accord
ing to the report of the Director of the Mint,
ule total issue of trade-dollars is SS35, $685. 1860.
CHICAGO, June 30.
The Chicago banks are following the lead
OF the New York ones and using every
means possible to throw the trade dollar ont
OF circulation. 1t is received for cighty-fiye
cents, or bullion value, although in fact it
worth about lightweight cents, there beng
more silver III it than in the standard dollar.
Street-car companies and theaters are max
ing the same discount.
