WASHINGTON, d. G.. July 22.-Secretary
Carlisle, after an interview with Acting
Mint. Director Preston this morning, au-
thorized the United Press to state that he
fully approves the policy pursued IN his
absence by Acting Director Preston IN
purchasing silver, and that the same pol
lev will govern purchases in the lmme-
date future. THIS statement Will set ae
rest the rumors that Secretary Carlisle
would on his return reverse the policy or
the Treasury in purchasing silver. Mr..
Preston was intrusted by Secretary Car
Isle with entire discretion IN purchasing
silver when he left on his vacation.
This morning, with the approval on Sec
Rotary Carlisle, he refused to purchase
100, 900 ounces of silver ut 10 cents. the
London price being about 6s11 cents per
ounce.

Local" purchases which may bring the
total I'D TO 2,000.000 ounces. IL ID not ex.
pected that tho total of 400, 900 ounces OF
silver will be purchased this month. bue
this does not worry Treasury officials, as

SUSPENDED NATIONAL BANKS.
The General Government Loses Nothing
by Their Failure.
ny telegraph to tho Dlspatch.


WASHINGTON. d. c., July 22.-Since the
1st of January nearly two hundred na-
tional banks have closed their doors,
against less than fifty during the Same pc
rod last year. OF the failures this year
Ave have been United States repositories,
as follows: The First National Bank OF
Little Rock. Ark; the Gate City National
Bank Of Atlanta, GA; the Peoples Ma
tional Bank OF Denver, Col; the Ger
man National Bank of Denver. Coli; tne
Kentucky National Bank of Louisville.
XIV. This latter bank, which closed its
doors today, had. by the last report re;
cdlved here, $4,000 worth OF United
States funds.
The government, however. will not lose
ANYTHING by these failures. as each ma
tional bank that ia q government deposit
tory has to deposit United States bonds to
the amount of the government money it
il allowed 70 carry. These bonds, IN case
of the failure of the bank, are sold for the
account of the government, and as I nlted
