THREE STEPS TAKEN.

The three steps taken within the past year, to keep down the cash in the treasury and return it to the people for use, have been the purchase of 4 and , per cent bonds last autumn, the pay ment of differences between par value and present worth in the process of re- funding the old bonds into new per cents, which were extended by Secre- tary Foster in 1891. When the condi- ton of the money market was most serious in New York and the west last autumn Secretary Gage offered, on No vember 15. to buy $25, ,OO0 900 in and , per cent bonds. The principal of the bonds received under this offer was $l9, 300, $50, and the amount paid by the treasury was $21 I'll ,S67. The operations under the refunding law up to August f. 1900, called for the payment of diff ferences between par value and present worth of S32, ,OOO,O 900.
 The amount of the old per cents outstanding when Secretary Gage made his recent call for their redemption was $25. .364,500. The sum of $6S57,6 of these bonds was redeemed up to Satur- day, August 4, but it is probable that nearly all will be received before Au- gust IS, when interest ceases under the recent call, or soon after this date. These three steps, therefore, re- duced the money in the treasury with in year about SO,OOO, 900, in addition to the effect produced by increasing the deposits of public money in the national banks. The treasury still has a cash balance of about $50 GOO exclusive of the gold reserves, but $95 OOO, 900 is in the custody of the banks for loans to the people during the crop moving sea
