DUMPING" ON VALUES.
SINISTER MOTIVES GOVERN.
THE TREASURY ONLY PARTIALLY REFLECTS
THE LOSS OF CASH AND REDUCTION
OF SURPLUS
Sunday, Nov. 10-p. m.

Sunday, Nov 10-p. m.
The United States Treasurer last week received
from customs s3,756,170 from internal revenue
s9555.OjO and from miscellaneous sources
sj41.257: total from all s6,s53,3SG, against
s7O4siS6 for the preceding week. The Treas
urys weekly statement of yesterday reflects the
payment for little, If any, Of the 623, 900 bonds
purchased during the week. nor the SH3,OOO
purchased November ., which were presented to
the Sub-Trcasury only on Wednesday OF last
week Yet the amount of net cash in Treasury
vaults was reduced $3.50, 800 but OF this sum
$685. was by the cancellation OF National
bank notes in process Of redemption in excess
Of the receipts of such notes during the week.
The other changes in vault balances were made up
as follows: gain to the net gold Of s535,SS4.
by reduction in the amount OF outstanding Ger
tifcatcs Of s668327, less loss Of bullion Of
Sl32,443; q loss TO the legal-tender balance OF
906,6G5, by a loss Of notes Of 81 1896, $685. less
the retirement OF certificates to the amount Of
100000 The net change in silver n loss
OF only 1852, 600 made by loss in bullion and
coin of s4s,372, less reduction in the amount
Of outstanding certificates OF si7620. These
figures would indicate that the whole weekly coin
age Of standard dollars, 5000 900, had passed
into general circulation The deposits in Ma
tional banks were reduced 81 ,0S6,938 making q
net reduction in the cash balance of s., 040, AL
The liability for the redemption Of surrendered
National bank notes was reduced s308420, so the
net available balance, over trust funds, by the
figures of the statement was reduced 81, 1872, 49,
during the week. But as before stated, some
thing like $4,000, 600 Of bonds have been paid
for by Sub-Treasuries, and this not being re-
dccted by yesterdays statement reduces the cash
actually held in the vaults so much below the
figures Of the statement
Subjoined are the results Of yesterdays state.
