tary Foster was at his desk at the
treasury department. He repeated
his opinlon,expressed some days ago,
that he did not think there would
be surplus In the treasury next

ture next September There are
outstanding about sos, 100000 OF A
per cents, nearly half of which are
held by national banks to secure
circulation. II is the secretary's
idea 10 follow the plan adopted by
Secretary Window in 1881, when
the and 8 per cent bonds matnred
These bonds were not redeemed
when they matured, but Secretary
Window made a contract with the
holders to pay 81 aud 8 per cent
interest at the pleasure OF the gov.
ernment. Secretary Foster thinks
that similar agreement with hold,
ers OF the a. per cent bonds can
be- made, aud the Interest put at
2 per cent. The subject viii be
considered ia all ils details.
