A dispatch from Washington to
| Louisville parties, says: Secretary
Carlisle, It is said, has definite offer
from a syndicate of Ohio capitalists to
become the president, general counsel
ana solicitor-general of corporation
winch Is to establish chain of nation
al loan associations over the country,
with headquarters in Washington and
the Ohio National bank of this city as
the center. The offer was made some
days ago, and the salary of 1926, 900
per annum was made him with the
time until February l., 1894, given
him to consider the matter. The
proposition was made few DAYS ago

From well informed sources it ia
ascertained that there is a strong prob.
ability that, if congress fails to come
to his relief within the next fifteen

reserve intact.
The bonds. if issued, will be sold

how long they will run, at what price
they will be sold, and how placed on
the market, etc. have not yet been
considered.
This proposed plan of the secretary,
1t is said, is the result of careful con-
sideration, and, of course, met with
the approval of the president. The
small amount of the proposed issue,
1t Is understood, has been determined
upon simply to tide the treasury over
its needs until congress can take up
the whole financial question and dis

Should congress within the next fif-
teen days, by resolution or otherwise,
meet the present treasury needs, Sec
rotary Carlisle will refrain from act.

should it fail to act in that time,

believed will be made.
Secretary Carlisle, it is said, would,
personally, favor The coinage of the
silver seigniorage if the law permitted
him TO toll it off and coin it; but the
seigiorage obtainable from the coming

would come in so slowly, that it
would not be nearly sufficient to meet
the present emergency.
