Secretary Foster Talks.

Secretary Foster does not believe in
mystifyiug the people as to the fiuan'
cial condition of the Government,
which is more than could have been
truthfully said of some Of his prede'
cessors. He does not entirely agree
with the recent statement made by
Director of the Mint Leech showing
that the Government has now on hand
in available cash, that is cash that can
be used to make any necessary pay.
ments, S25S, 900, 900. lie says on this
very interesting subject; 81 guess be
(Mr. Leech) is about right in the
main, although l think it is a matter
hat may we'll be discussed. l should
have stated it differently if | had been
writing it. 1 should have said that
some Of the S25S, 000,0 900 of avilable
cash might be regarded as trust funds
might be, l say. 1t would be correct
10 say that about seventy millions is
unquestionably available cash-that
is, about S2S, 000 900 in the banks,
S21, goo, 900 of subsidiary coin, S4,-
O00, 900 10 trade dollar bullion, S12,.
000, 900 Of current cash and So, 900, 900
in silver against which no certificates
have been issued.
"As to the 500, 000, 900 of gold
reserve: 1t is held against the $3.50,
100000 greenbacks to make the credit
of the Government impreguable, for
no one would be able to get together
enough greenbscks to take all the
gold out of the treasury, and therefore
they do not take any. But these notes
are legal tender and the Government
can and would use this gold reserve il
it were needed. 1t should, therefore,
appear in the debt statement as availa.
BILE cash. Now as to the redemption
of the Al per cent. bonds. l am
thinking of trying to substitute 2 per
cent. for them, as Mr.. Window pro-
posed. If it can be done there will be
two advantages in il over the redemp.
ton. To be able to float 2 per cent
bonds will demonstrate the extraordi.
nary soundness of the government
credit, and the money that would bt
required to redeem the Al may b.
used for the purchase of As at a saving
of 2 per cent.
II talk about these matters freely
because l believe it to be a good thing
to have them discussed we'll, and vel
understood before they are tried.
am getting a good many letters from
bankers and others; some of them ar
silly, but many contain valuable opin
ions. Some newspapers criticise every
thing in a partisan spirit, but tina
makes no difference. / believe it ]
