THE Cabinet has decided TO decline
the offers Of the New York bankers to
supply gold to the Treasury. The
Treasury must be independent If il

them from necessity. such necessity
does not exist. There is no necessity,
no crisis at all, at present It is true the
previous administration drained the
Treasury. The surplus Of 500. OOO,-
VVV has been squandered and
the gold reserve encroached upon
but change demanded by the
people has restored the credit by de-
creasing the danger threatened by the
