Getting Embarrassing.

Boston Jan. 27.-The Herald says:
"Gold and legal tenders are here made
articles of merchandise, and tbs money
in use is silver, silver notes and nation
al bank bills, with a few certificates of
legal tender deposits. AS these certi-
fcates are in $4,000. pieces. and the
secretary of the treasury refuses to
authorize $4,000 pieces, it becomes m
barrassing in paying odd balances to
cut them up in some way. The clerk
of the clearing house does this virtu-
ally by depositing treasury $4,000 GER
ti6cates with some bank and drawing
non-interest checks against them. The
clearing house association has the
remedy for this difficulty in its own
hands. By a rule of its own making
silver certificates and national bank
notes are never rendered in paying
balances. If silver certificates were
rendered, they would have to be accept
ed. Why, then, should not the rule be
repeale I, and payment of balances in
lawful money be allowed? The banks
surely should not discriminate against
their own notes, and especially banks
which urge retirement of legal tender
notes in favor of bank notes. 1t may
be said that the banks deserve what
they are experiencing at clearing. 1t
does not seem quite the thing that
national banks should improvise sub
stitutes for money when they haye their
own notes in sufficient amounts for use.
1t looks as if the banks would have to
cease discriminating against silver and
bank bills, or else take out more clear
house lean certificates.

The Chinese government, following
the necessary custom of seml.barbar-
GUS, poverty-stricken countries, has
just made a contract with a private
corporation, the Deutsche Bank. by
which Chinese bonds to the amount of
$4,000 are to be floated. The Deutsche
Bank buys the bonds at sou and issues
them at 90. That is, the poor, unstable,
tricky Chinese nation has to pay a COM
mission of 81 per cent. Last Febru-
airy the United States government, de-
waiting from the custom of rich and
free and civilized nations, made a con-
tract with a private syndicate by
which $62, 100000 was floated. The
private syndicate paid 1O4R for the
bonds and sold them at 119. That is,
the rich, stable and honest American
nation that never defaulted and never
threatened default on a dollar prin-
cipal or interest, had to pay a COM
mission of 14H per cent. The United
States had to pay than two and a
half times as big a premium to float its
loan as China did.-N. Y. World.

Another Gold-Bug Scheme to
Aid the Bankers Only.

Denver Jan. ga special to the
Times from Washington says:
A bill, which is on the program to
put through both houses of congress in
short order, provides for the coinage of
$10O,OO0.OO0 of the silver bullion stored
in the minis into subsidiary pieces. 1t
is said that there is always a demand
for small coins In the spring, and
many banks, purchasing same for their
customers. refuse to take pieces which
are at all abraded. To take advantage
of this demand and thus reduce the
bulk of silver in store is regarded as
desirable. The government would de-
rive an extra profit from this as the
seignorage on the token coins is about
five cents more on the dollar than on
standard dollars. Asst is now, there
are S53,O00,000 in seignorage available
