bids for sJ0I00O.0O0 five per cent ten year
bonds. interest TO be paid in coin, which
is interpreted to mean gold. The only
material changes made in the present
call from that issued Jan. IA last. are the
omission Of the upset or minimum price
which could be accepted. and notice Of
proposals for the present issue must be
sealed. II is confidently expected at the
treasury department that the amount
will be realized considerably in excess Of
that received on the February issue
This expectation is based on the fact
that there are exceptionally large
amounts Of money now lying idle and
seeking investment In the money cen
tiers of the country. and upon the fur
ther fact that the January issue is now
quoted at slls.JO. From the last issue
there was realized s5S .6G0.9l763, and Of
this amount s52 .sJ0.3642i was in gold
s5.sl0,i2O in gold certificates. and
s.S3.:g ia other money. which sub-treas
uiers were compelled to take in making
change. While these amounts were ac-
tusliy paid into the treasury in gold or
its equivalent. very considerable
amount OF gold was withdrawn from
sub treasurer for the express purpose Of
using il again in paying for the bonds.
The exact amount thus Withdrawn can
not be ascertained. but the best knowl-
enge obtaInable is that il spproximates
tl5l0O.OOO. With view Of more ex
acs estimate Of the amounts which may
be withdrawn between now and the set
tlemsnt Of all accounts under the call
the sub treasures will. from this date
keep record Of all deposits legal tenders
made in exchange FOR gold and the names
OF the firm or persons making them.
