II is probable that never before has
the Treasury Department been so Hood
cd with resolutions calling for informa-
tion as II has been during this eXtraordi-
nary session. due, Of course, TO the pend
ing debate on the hnahcial question.
The latest reply TO query OF the senate
came In response to resolution direct
ing the Secretary to acquaint the senate
when and in what amounts government
bonds have bees purchased since lS9,
the rate and the aggregate amount OF
promium paid on such purchases; whether
any such purchases have been imadc with
out the notice required BY law, ana What
amount OF public moneys. by years mas

that during The fourteen years covered by

that there were no bonds purchased from

there were outstanding bonds which had
become rcleemable at the pleasure ot the
government and the surplus revenues
were applied To their redemption at par
Vher. have been no purchases since 1891
In regard to the implied violation OF law
the Secretary SAYS there is no law re-
ouiring the department to give public no
tice Of the purchase by the government
of its bonds: hut that there have been
no such purchases since 1879 except In pur.
suance of public notice. The amount OF
