BOND ISSUE USELESS.
Constitutional Lawyers Say Proceeds Csn
not BE Used to Meet Expenses.

Constitutional Lawyers Say Proceeds Jan
not BE Used to Meet Expenses.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 14.-Secretary Car
isles reported purpose OF issuing bonus
nv virtue of the general authority granted
to the secretary of the treasury unaer 'he
act of 1875 has aroused the interest OF
some of the leading constitutional law
yers of the house as to the Legality OF such
action. Judge Culberson OF Texas, chair-
man of the judiciary committee OF the
house. and most, if not all, OF MS col
leages on that committee say that while
the secretary has the general night TO
issue bonds he cannot use the proceeds
derived from their sale except for the
single purpose of redeeming outstanding
treasury notes. This, of course. would
preclude the possibility of using the pro-
ceeds OF a bond issue for meeting current
expenses and would render a resort to
bonds almost nugatory.
Judge Culberson has made an extensive
study of the bond subject. and in giving
his views today, he referred to report he
had made to congress on July 6, 1892. as
covering the reported purpose of Mr.. Car
Isle to issue bonds. 4 feature of that re-
mort is it's reference TO the emphatic
language of Mr., Bayard, now minister to
Great Britain, concerning the reserve
fund of slOo. 100000. The expression was
used by MI Bayard when a member of
the senate, and while the act of 1882 was
under consideration. Mr., Bayard said:
1T cannot be too emphatically stated
and repeated that gold was bought with
bonds of TIE United States with one
purpose only. 1t was to procure and
maintain resumption, and if it be used
for anything else it is Il perversion of the
funds and a breach of trust
Judge Culberson and Messrs. Bynum,
Boatner and other congressional lawyers
agree in the opinions of Mr.. Bayard that
the money realized in the sale of bonds
cannot be used for any other than redemp-
ton purposes without violating sacred
