It is strange that the use Of points for pur
poses Of punctuation should be such com
paratively modern invention. OF the four
generally-used points only the period u dates
earlier than the Fifteenth century. The
colon q is said to have been 1rst introduced
about 1885, tho comma y some thirty Ave
years later, and the selnicolon u about 1910.
It is difficult to understand how the literary
world dispensed for SO many centuries with
the useful points, and their lack must have
added to the toll Of the deciphsrer OF written
documents When we remember what curl
Gus diversions Of meaning may be caused by
the mispiacing Of comma, we marvel how
early authors contrived to escape strange
misreadings of their works, in which no
points guided the students.-LondoA Stand

TIE MONETARY SITUATIO

The near approach to the new year, at about
which date tax lists upon personal property are
generally made up, unquestionably is eAerting
some influence toward the retarding Of offerings
to the Treasury Of Government bonds AS the
bonds are free from all taxes Of every Kind and

bc loath to part with them at this particular time,
when barring few days interest they are
practically guaranteed market at the same
pprice after January l. IL seems TO us unnecessary
10 look further for reason why the offerings OF
bonds last week fell below 100000. The

Of the Secretary's notice OF call for January 10.

THE TREASURY WEEKLY STATEMENT IN
SHOWING LARGE CASH LOSSES RE-
FLEETS THE OPERATIONS OF
TWO PRECEDING WEEKS.

TWO PRECEDING WEEKS.
Sunday, Dec 22-p. m
The United States Treasurer last week received
from customs S3.6s1 ,734. from internal revenue
S245llG0. and from miscellaneous sources $i03.-
3lO total from all. $G,536,144 against $7,53l,-
s34 for the preceding week. The Treasury bond
purchases for the week amounted only to $780,
sOO-4 per cents, S6s3, 100, and 4 IL per cents
s146.7OO. Yet the weekly Treasury statement
shows loss to cash in vaults OF 5,091, ,6S5 and
a reduction in it's deposits in National banks of
So. ,s32, making total reduction in the cash
balance Of S7.45i,517. AS the bond purchases OF
last week were small, yesterdays statement
probably reflects very nearly the actual cash held
at the close Of business on Friday Since Novem-
Der 80. when the Secretary gave notice of his
intention to reduce the Governments deposits in
National banks. the gross of those deposits has
been reduced $500, ,00O and the net cash in the
Treasury vaults has been reduced nearly So ,000,-
600. The Treasury surplus over liabilities for
trust funds has been reduced from SOL ,S35,39l
down to SS1 ,43G, ,023. so that the actual surplus
of the Treasury now can hardly exceed $29.-
600, 900. Adding to the sum Of the reduction Of
net cash in the Treasury vaults since November
30 the three weeks silver coinage, amounting to
over Sl,s00,000, we have the sum of Sc, 100000
as the amount which the Treasury in the period
has paid out in excess of its receipts.
BY yesterdays statement the principal changes
of net cash in vaults were made up as follows
the loss to the gold balance of $l,175,O72 by an
issue Of $1,s70,27O certificates less an accumu-
lation of S7O419s bullion; the loss of S2,35l.-
4s3 to the legal-tender balance by a loss of
551,4S3 notes. less a reduction of 5000, 900 in
the amount of outstanding certificates, and the
loss of 81 ,840,3O3 to the silver balance by an
issue of S2s00,63j certificates, less an accumula-
ton of 81 ,04l,332. The liability for the re-
dempton of surrendered National bank notes was
increased S236,l57 by the operations of the
week.
