CHICAGO. July a--Thcre Is a faint ray Of
hope OF a change in the situation Of affairs
between the Grand Army commanders and

thing Of success. The depart
lnent commanders have not in the least re-
ceded from their positions. On the con-

i'm receipt Of circulars sent by De-
partment Commanders Barto OF Minnc-
sota and Smith Of Iowa, Travis OF Indiana,
and Brown OF Michigan, all request
ing comrades to remain away unless tho

commanders in their official papers give
any encouragement that the one-cent fare
will be obtained. But it is known that
some negotiations are pending, which, il
successful. will result In satisfactory terms
over roads in the Western departments
Officers OF roads In Illinois are said to be
inclined to make the rate ii assured
OF a large attendance from long dis

that all roads are afraid to take the initia-

The Secretary of the Treasury Does Nut
Apprehend stringcncy In tho Money
Market.
New York, July Ca special to the
Times from Washington says: Secretary
OF the Treasury Window il not
troubled by the published reports
that tie reserve in the New York
banks is getting dangerously low, and that
there are indications OF stringency in
the money market which may call for some
action by the Treasury Department The
Secretary said that he could see no evt-
dence Of money being light. from the fact
that while the department offered to buy
bonds at liberal figure the offers were not
numerous. Said he:
III money was in demand bonds would not
he held back as they now are. The price we
have establ shed IS . liberal one. and on the
bonds the holders are getting only 2 per cent,
while on the 4hs the interest Is only
trfe over III, yet there Is no
great alacrity shown BY the holders
OF these bonds to sell them TO the
Government and convert them into cash. II is
true that the people who hold bonds are not
the people who want money, but what can
do! We dare not 60 to work and offer price
far in excess Of their value so as to induce the
people to sell their bonds TO the Government.
the price which we are now paying being all
that they are WORTH
Mr.. Window picked up the daily report
made by the Treasurer OF the United States
showing the disposition of the public funds.
and, after glancing at the figures con-
tinued:
The surplus now amounts in round figures
to s5a0O0.0Oa, which. according to this re.
port, t450Ol.O0l. including the current balance,
Is in the hands OF the banks and $I4,OOoOO)
Is in.the Treasury Tho money in the banks
is about the same a. when Mr.. Fairchld was
Secretary OF the Treasury. It has been re-
duced somewhat, but not very much, as !
wanted to be conservative, and did rot care
to do any thing which might disturb trade. 1t
IS true this amount might be increased, but
do not believe In the plan, and should not care
to increase the amount without the action OF
Congress. So You see the great bulk OF the
surplus is in the banks, to be used by the peo-
pie, and the Treasury could not do very much
more unless authorized by Congress"
II see no indications OF stringent money
market, and the reports which reach me do
not show that II Is generally feared. Since
have been in the Treasury Department I can
safely say that have not received a half-dozen
appeals for money or requests that the depart
ment would libcrate money. Ihave not heard
that the New York banks were losing their
money, and the general impression conveyed
TO me has been that money was plentiful
