ACTUAL MONEY SUPPLY.

To the Editor Of the San Francisco Calt-SIR:
In the financial department of the Bulletin
yesterday July 3O) find under the heading
OF money Supply" great array of treasury
statistics, which are wholly unreliable as
published, and yet they appear without q
word OF comment or explanation, although
the financial editor has recently admitted
editorially that including the various certifi-
Gates in these treasury statements as so much
money apart from the coin and greenbacks
they represent is a sheer duplication or doub-
ling of the figures, and is therefore false
quantity, and to that extent the result OBJ
tanned is absolutely untrue and unreliable.
The figures given by the Bulletin are here
with repor Ted which were introduced as "ihe
United States treasury statement of the stock
of coined and issued money in the country on
the LIST of July, 1897" as follows:

generating. He adds that IL the two
peoples would blend. the result would be
one of the strongest races in Europe, as
each has qualities which the other needs

has ingenuity, but he lacks persistence,

NEW YORK, Oct ga dispatch to

cial reports from all points today give
accounts of many victories of Dictator
Barrios' arms, and now it begins to
look as if the tide of war had turned
strongly against the rebels The gov

on Sunday, with complete triumph for
government arms. The fighting began
at half past II o'clock in the morning
and continued until late in the even
ing.
Washington, Oct. 6-United States
Consul Pringle, at Guatemala has ca
bled the state department that the
government forces have recaptured
from the insurgents the town of Cues
altenango. This town was captured
by the insurgents about two weeks
ago. 1t lies about forty miles inland
and is the capital of the province of
that name. The department has gone
as far as it deems expedient towa Sds
the protection of American interests in
Guatemala by having the United
States ship Alert sent there, although
it is not expected that she can be of
much service, as most of the revolu-

Another meeting to discuss flour
rates will be held this morning in the
office of Traffic Manager J. T. Clark
of the Omaha road, the call having
been issued a day or two ago by Chair
man Midgley. Although the executives
of the interested lines say they are I'M
able to predict what action will be tax
en-, it is almost sure thing that the
. talked-of advance from 221a to 25 cents
will be inaugurated to be effective as
soon as may be.
1t was stated yesterday that the in
crease had been placed so as to be eff
fective from Michigan and Lake Su-
perior points as soon as favorable &C
ton was taken by the Western lines,
and it is the belief that the sentiment
will be unanimous in favor of the 20
cent rate from Minneapolis to Buffalo.
Chairman Midgley will be at the
meeting and the different executives
will reach here this morning.
