they had elected 81 majority, but il
seems that it is a mistake. With An.

is too small for working purposes.
Since the last days of January the
Treasury balance has increased in
round figures $50, 600, 600, the assets
to-day standing at 1871, 600, 900. This
increase practically represents the
money received from the bond issue,
all of which, with the exception Of
about 50, 500, 900, is now in hand. The
principal and premium of this bond
issue aggregated $4,000, 600, and 6g
ures obtained at the Treasury show
that the net gold in the Treasury
gained by the issue is about 81, 100000,
On February 1st the gold in the Treas
ury stood at $64, 600, 900, and to day it
is $1O5, 600, 600. Since those dates the
currency balance has increased from
$18, 900, 900 to $37, 600, 900, and this is
reported by the increase in legal ten.
der notes, which we're paid into the
Treasury in exchange for gold, which
was withdrawn to pay for bonds. The
figures show that since January 2a
the United States notes in the Trea81r!
increased from ST., 900, 900 to $56,0~'
900, a gain of SO, 900, 900, and United
States Treasury notes from $2,5y0,M
to 50, 500, 900, a gain of $7,3OO,O0O, dur
ing the same time the liability Of The
Government in the matter OF goIdca
tifcates decreased S. 500, 600 Or IRON
ST., 600, 900 to ST., 500. 900. Official h5
ures completed at the Treasury Depart
ment also show that for the first seven
and a half months of the present h''1
year the expenditures of the Govern
ment have exceeded the gross recePs
by $48, 500, 900, or at the rate OF aOo1'
