WILL ISSUE GOLD NOTES.
An Expedient to Tide Over the FL
nancial Stringency in India.

CALCUTTA, Jan. 14-Presdent James
Westland, finance minister of the coun-
Gil. introduced a bin today. providing for
the issuance of currency notes In India
against gold. Mr.. Arthur. the secretary
OF state In London. In behalf OF banks
and chambers of commerce, Endorsed the
measure The financial minister said the
India money market was experiencing
period of extreme stringency. The local
resources. he added We're unable TO sup
ply the demand. The scarcity. he ex-
planned, was due TO banks RENTING their
capital home and keeping as little as pos
sihle In India This policy was adopted
before the legislation CT 1S93 and was not
In consequence of that legislation But
while they were advancing towards the
attainment of a led rupee the success
initiated against the transfer of sterling
capital to Indian in exchange. Banks
must operate upon commercial principles
and no blame was attached to them.
BOMBAY, Jan. 1.-THE commercial
situation has assumed a more favorable
aspect with the prospect that the strin-
gency in money will gradually relax and
accommodation become available. The
stringency is largely due to the locking
up OF the capital in silver, under the idea
mat the minis will be reopened 1t is
also due. in part. to the exodus of mer-
chants because of the famine. Although
the bank rate is II per cent. loans are
only obtainable at from Is to is per cent
There Is balance In the treasury Of
about ten crores of rupees, while the cur
rency notes in circulation represent ga.
crores. against which there is a reserve
Of IA crores.
