a commission to consider an adequate plan
of currency, and some for the free coinage

Inc national bank note bill introduced in
the Senate today by Senator VOORHEES,.
chairman of the finance committee. reads
follows:
De IL enacted, etc, That upon any de-
post already or hereafter made of any
United States bonds bearing interest,". in
the manner required by law, any national
banking association which has made or
snan hereafter make. the same snail be ell
titied TO receive from the controller Of the
currency circulating notes of different de-
mountainous IN blank, registered and coua-
tersigned as provided by law, not exceed
ing IN the whole amount in circulating notes
thus issued the par vaIue of the bon5s de-
posted; provided that at no time shall the
total amount OF such notes ISSUED to any
s s. ASSOCIATION exceed the amount at such
tiine actually paid in as it's capital stock ="
accompanying the bill was the following
letter from Secretary Carlisle:
TREASURY DEPARTMENT,
OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY,
WASHINGTON. ID. G., August IN. ls.I3.
Hon. d. W. VOORHEES,.
Ny dear sir-Your favor Of the 10th in
slant, inclosing form of a bill to provide
for the issuing of circulating notes to ma
tioual banks and asking the views of the
Secretary OF the Treasury as to the advisa-
bility of its passage is received. The enact
ment OF such law as. proposed would en-
able the national banks to issue and put in
circulation at once, on bonds already de-
posted with the treasurer of the United
States, about s19.oooo00 in currency. In
addition to the amount now authorized;
and this, in my opinion. would afford d very
considerable measure of RELIEF to the coun-
try under existing circum stances. / there
fore recommend the passage of the bill
Respectfully yours,
J. G. CARLISLE. Secretary"
An Administration Measure.
1t is the intention of Senator voorhees, to
have the financial committee report this
bill at the meeting called for tomorrow
and push it's immediate consideration. With
the Endorsement of Secretary Carlisle II
may be regarded as an administration
measure, and will probably receive the APP
prevail of the Senate. In the House IL may
have a harder struggle, but Ii is believed
that ii will finally be passed by that boay.
Senator Voorhees, has said to an intimate
friend that he does not regard vote on
the repeal of the Sherman law as a test
of any mans views on the use OF silver as
a money metal. He considers that this law
has been a curse to the business interests
of the country. and has also been an i'm
pediment to the fair use OF silver as money,
and therefore wants the Sherman law
speedily out of the way. He will vote for
the unconditional repeal OF the law IL he
thinks that action proper when the vote is
taken. He further SAIL that there would
be no delay in the Senate.
