It is stated az the Treasury Depart

ing Monday Il may be next Monday be-
fore Secretary Carhsle's report IS made

Ex-Speaker Crisp commented upon the
Presidents message after hearing IL read
to-day, as follows:
Il heard with some surprise and great
regret that part Of the message relating
10 our finances. That relief Is needed
no one doubts. That it can be found IN
the direction indicated In the massage I
do not believe. The President makes as
strong an argument as can be made in
favor OF the single gold standard. but /
DO not think he fairly states the case
He assumes through his message that
our obligations are payable In gold, There
Is no law on the statute books Justify
ing this assumption. All bonds, Treasu-
ry-notes. and other obligations OF the
United States are payable In coin--that
is. gold and silver. Of the present stand
