BONDS AND MONEY.

Effect of the Recent Bond Calls on the Cir
culation of National Banks.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Oct "A great deal of discus
sion 10 being INDUCED in just at this time about
the effect of the unusual bond calls at the Treas
ury Department Opinions differ as to how they
will bear upon the general circulation of money
During the past week have made It point to
CLEAN some opinions from the leading financiers
here, and they go in the direction of depression
for national banks, but more money for the Dor
Eowing masses.
COL Jesse Sarvis, one Of the most forcible
financial writers in the city, and thorough
Democrat, gave the gist of what all said when
ne made this statement:
1.-THE bond calls during September alone ag-
gregated $30000000 Of this amount $l1 $780,
600 were held by national banks to redeem cir
culation. The bonds, of course, are deposited
in the Treasury vaults. 1t is held that these
bonds, redeemed by the government, must be
replaced by other bonds This the
banks cannot afford to do. be-
cause available bonds are away above
par; they have too high premium to recon-
mend their purchase The consequence will be
the government will return to the banks $40, 900
out of every 100000 deposited (you know
800 600 of each $1,000 900 bonds deposited receives
eirculationy and the banks will contract their
capital stocks to that amount except in the few
instances where the proportion of the calls
strikes the banks hard that their capital stocks
are reduced below the minimum, which is
$4,000. A Baltimore bank had nearly a million
OF its bonds called. People are interested most
in the phase of the question presented in this in
terrogatory: Where will this money for re-
deemed bonds go tol Will it be kept in the
banks as circulating mediuml Well. $50, 600
of every 100000 are already in the
hands of the people in the form of
the national bank notes issued. The natural
conclusion is that when the capital stock of
bank is reduced the interest of stockholders is
proporsionately reduced. Therefore the crcu-
lating medium Of the banks is being reduced,
just at this time, very rapidly, but think they
will not be reduced so fas. after the elections
. The people demand the reduction of the public
debt and it has good effect upon all classes, ex-
eept national bankers, to make heavy calls for
bonds on the eve of an election. OF course the
money will not be destroyed. It will be to loan.
but not by the banks There will be more per-
manent investment hereafter, unless Congress
authorizes the issuance OF new bond, designed
especially for national. bank security. 1 pre-
sumo discounts at the banks will be a little
higher, on account of the contraction of the
capital stocks OF banks, and that the exchange
credits will not be as large as heretofore"

Scope of the Forthcoming Report of the Ma
tional Labor Bureau.
WASHINGTON, Oct 2-The second annual re-
port of the Bureau Of Labor, now in course of
preparation, will be a much more comprehen-
sive document than the report laid before Con-
gress last winter. A thorough examination has
been made of the relations Of convict labor to
free labor, and every penitentiary jail and
work-house in the United States, where the in
mates are employed in industrial pursuits, has
been visited by the agents of the bureau. Their
reports will be carefully tabulated, and, taking
these tables as basis, it is believed that the
extent to which the independent laborer or me-
chanic is affected by the prison workers
can be shown with sufficient exactness
to serve guide for future legislation on the
subject The report will, Also include statistics
touching labor strikes in this country. The in
quiries of the bureau on this subject cover
period of time ranging from January, 1881, down
to July of the present year, and it is believed
that information has been collected touching ev-
cry strike of consequence that has occurred in
the United States within that period. From the
data collected. deductions of general character
will be made, with view to the establishment
of certain rules that may aid in forecasting the
probable result OF future strikes and in demon
strating the effects Of such concerted movements
upon the laboring and employing classes and the
industries affected. The full report will, prob
ably. be completed about the beginning of the
coming year

COMmIrTEE ON STREETS.

Layout of the Old Town Farm Into Streets-A Suggestion That the Prin- cipaI Street Take the Name of Key. holds i'm Honor of the Town Agent. Tue Committee on Streets held a meeting last evening, Alderman Bradley presiding. The first petition considered was for con- crete walk on the east side oe Lloyd street, between Grand avenue and Clay street. S. L. Blatchley appeared and advocated the laying of the walk. He was informed by the street being public one, as all the con- dirions attending the opening of the same had not been complied with.
 MT. Blatchley said that he had agreed to curb the street on both sides, but had only curbed one side because there had been no call for it. When there were any houses built on that side they were ready to curb, but did not want to do it this year as they had all they wanted to do in the way of improve ments.
 It was voted to recommend that the walk be laid before September 1, 1886, and that the west side be curbed before August 1, 1887.
 The next petition considered was the relay of the walk on the west side of Auburn street, between Oak and Mulberry streets Voted to recommend that the matter be in definitely postponed.
 Petitions laid over rom the last meeting were taken from the table and disposed of as follows:
 Concrete sidewalk on Elm street between No1 ton and Mott streets. Voted to recom- mend, the work to be done by August 1st, 1886.
 Grading of Thompson street from Shelton to DIxwell avenues. Voted to recommend
 Crosswalk on Blatchley avenue over Chap el street. Voted to recommend.
 Ccosswalk across Ferry street from tha east side of Bailey street. Voted to recommend.
 Relay of sidewalk on Congress avenue where needed from Ward to Kossuth stree g. Voted to recommend.
 The matter of the layout of streets across the old town farm was then taken up. A map of the proposed layout as prepared by City Engineer Hill was exhibited to the committee. The layout as proposed pro- three thousand feet long, running through the center Of the farm from Sherman ave nue to the proposed boulevard. It is sug- gested that this street be named Reynolds street in honoi of the present town agent. The cross Streets are simply extensions O. the following streets: Mott street, from Elm street to Derby avenue; Brownell street, from Elm to Chapel street; Hobart street, from Elm to Chapel street. The plan as proposed was agreed to, and it was then vot- ed to recommend that the town be granted permission to make the layout shown up- on the map, provided the streets are graded and curbed within two years and without ex- pense to the city.

 Mrs. Ellen F. Wheeler, who resides in Ansonia, has been confirmed invalid for a long time and for the past nine months she has not been able to stand or walk without the aid of two crutches. Last Wednesday she was put into an easy carriage, braced up with pillows and taken to New Haven to see Dr. Henion, the magnetic physician at 109 at the doctors office her daughter went in and asked Dr. Henion if he would not go out to the carriage and see her mother. He did so and after exam ming Mrs. Wheeler in the carriage the doc tor told her he could make her walk. Mrs. Wheeler accordingly carried into the doctors oI' ce and after one magnetic treat ment O. about fifteen minutes Mrs. Wheeler walked out into the doctors reception room without any assistance and after sitting tor some time and answering the questions of those who were present she arose from her chair and walked out to the carriage and re- turned to Ansonia.
