MUCH MONEY IN CIRCULATION.
State Paying Interest and Financial
Institutions Paying Dividends.

A great deal OF money was turned
aloose In Richmond yesterday, and many
thousands of people within the city are
richer thereby. In the first place. the
State Treasurer began to pay off the in
terest on the century bonds. The aggre-
gate amount which he will turn over TO
the people is $4,000.
The bulk of the money hoated, however,
comes from the banks and other hnan-
cial institutions. All OF the building and
loan associations and all Of the banks, to-
gether with many of the railroads, are
paying their semi-annual dividends, and

them, wrote their checks for their divi-
dends Thursday and mailed them that
