BANKS GETTING BACH THEIR COLD
Ever since the conference between
nitcd states Treasurer Jordan and the
bank presidents last july, the result Of
which was the transfer OF SO, 900, 600 gold
from tpc banks to the treasury vaults,
god has been steadily flowing into the
treasury one OF the most noticeable Of
tue effects OF the transfer was the marked
dimlnution in silver payments for duties
at tho custom-housc, the proportion now
being 3 per cent. instead OF 3d. as was the
case while the transfer was made at the
time the matter was arranged. The prcsi-
dents treated the exchange as a loan of
gold, and Treasurer Jordan informed
Them that II the result should cause Il flow
vi gold into the treasury he would return
the full amount daring the fall. This has /
ROW been done, the banks having within /.
tine past few days made q can upon the /
treasury for the return OF the gold /
ABOUT SS,p0O,00O OF the whole loan has .
been returned. Several of the bank .
presidents are inclined TO the opinion chat .
the treasurer has concluded to return the
gold prior to the assembling OF congress
