eral, are set forth in the testimony OF

Concerning the coinage OF silver seigniorage.
Representative Oates asked: Il want TO ask
you IL there Is any objec lion to the proposition
about coming the seigniorage and issuing GER
ticates against that."
Secretary Carlisle-well the effect of that
would be that the secretary OF the treasury
would issue silver certificates calling for dol
lars. suppose that when there were no dol
lars behind them, aud IL they came In Tor re
demption, as they might the secretary OF the
treasury would be compelled to use gold or
whatever else he had 10 redeem them.
Mr. Boatner-Could you not coin the silver
and use that.
Secretary carlisle--Yes in about two years.
1t would take about that time.
w. A. Stone, of PENNSYLVANIA Have you not
got enough silver TO redeem II.
Secretary Carlisle-No, sir. certificates are
about " ,000,0o) or s6,pmOOl
Mr. Stoner-what would b the objection Ia
issuing certificates on account Of the scignior-
ages
Secretary Carlisle i was going TO state that
II we should issue cert hcates with nothing be-
hind them but bullion think they would be
greatly discred.ted In the public mind
Mr. Stone-And In order TO keep Up the credit
you would have to redeem them in goldr
Secretary Carlisle-They would have to be
redeemed In something
Mr.. Stone-lf you redeemed II in silver II
would he discrediied and you would have To re-
deem Il In gold.
Secretary Carlisle-They would call for sll
YER dollars aud there are no silver dollars to re-
deem them.
In answer to question as to how
fast the coinage seigniorage could be
minted, Mr. Carlisle said: "lf all
other coinage was suspended at the
mints, | estimate that we could coin
about 1000, 900 silver dollars per month
or s4s, 900, 900 "A year"
