MAY ISSUE GOLD CERTIFICATES.
Secretary Gage Considering Increase
of Currency Secured by Reserve.


NEW YORK. Oct. There has been
some talk in banking circles of the posi-
bility of the treasury department issuing
gold certificates. now that gold is plling up
in the vaults and currency decreasing.
This discussion is chiefly due 10 the dis
patch received in Wall street TO the effect
that there has recently been some Informal
discussion in the treasury department OF
the desirability Of this course. Continue
ing. the dispatch says that Secretary Gage
is confronted by a decision made by Sec
rotary Carlisle when the treasury gold fell
below 800 0o0.ooo. that. the reserve having
once fallen below the amount mentioned,
gold certificates could not be issued against
it even If the reserve went above Slo0,ooo,-
600. unless the issue was specifically au-
thorized by congress.
President Cannon. of the Chase National
bank. saw nothing that made the issue Of
gold certificates needfui. but thought IL was
entirely within the province of Secretary
Gage
Vice President Hepburn. Of the National
City bank. said:
II believe that legally the issue of gold
certificates Is entirely within the option Of
Secretary Gage. There Is no question that
the treasury needs currency. IL the pres
ent conditions continue and there are a
few gold imports. as. In my opinion, there
the treasury will have to settle its balances
in gold. The situation regarding the cur
rency might be relieved by the issuing OF
gold certificates. as county banks, which
have not facilities for holding their reserve
in gold, could hold the certificates for that
purpose. and put into circulation the cur
rency which they now hold. This. IL seems
to me, would relieve the situation as to
the currency"
Cashier huffman, of the sub-treasury.
thought 1t altogether likely that the sub
ject may be discussed He said further
that there seemed to be an erroneous idea
IN some quarters that there was now an
inconvenient shortage of currency. This.
he said, was not the case. and he added
that any action Of the treasury officials
which might convey that impression was,
In his opinion. taken because they desired
such a shortage and were shaping their
course at present with a view TO the need
OF a large amount of currency during Oc-
tober to meet the government payments
OF interest and pensions.
