HURRY ORDERS
Engraving Bank Notes In An
ticipation of Passage OF
Bill.

Washington, D. O., March 12.-The
Bureau OF Engraving and Printing is
now working day force and q night
force printing national bank notes to
have them ready when the pending cur
renoy bill is passed in the senate.
If any one doubts the close oonneo-
tion that exists between President Mo-
Kinley and the banks it would be dis
PEELED at once if they should Welt the
National Bureau OF Engraving and
Printing and see the government forces
all at work printing national bank notes
for national banks in anticipation of the
passage of law that will entltle them
TO additional circulation.
There is no authority for the presi-
dent to prlnt national bank notes for
banks except they have security depos-
tied for them For the notes that are
now being printed no security whatever
is deposited. The banks have already
the amount Of notes they are entitled to
under the law, which allows them ninety
per cent OF the face value of the bonds
deposited, but the bill which is expect
ed to become law shortly provides that
they may issue circulation to the full
face value of the bonds, and in sntlcpa-
tion OF the passage OF this law the gov
ernment Is now printing, before the law
is yet passed. the extra ten per cent of
circulating notes that the bank will be
allowed to add to their circulation when
the law is passed.
In this connection it will be remem-
bered that in 1892 there was clsmorng
for more government bonds and arrange
ments were made with the administra-
tlon to raid the treasury for gold Aud
force bond Issue, and that ex-Presl-
dent Harrison before the close OF lis
administration and before bill WAS
even introduced IN congress to author
ize the issue of such bonds, had the
plates engraved and made ready for
their prompt issue, and it Is we'll known
that had Harrison been elected instead
Of Cleveland the bond issues that took
place under the administration OF the
latter would have taken place it the tor
mer had been elected.

bate on the report continued through
out the day, Mr.. Overstreet of Indiana
opening and Mr.. Brosius Of Pennsyl-
vania closing in support Of the measure,
while Mr.. Little of Arkansas closed in
opposition with a severe arraignment OF

ington special to The Times says: When
the Republicans assembled in caucus
Senator Davis was among the first to
speak. He said that he would not be
bound by any caucus. He said that he
understood that the meeting was
for a conference and not caucus.
He said that the electoral vote Of
the State Of Minnesota depended
upon the Porto Rican matter and that
he did not propose to trade that away
lightly. To make this expression he
was compelled to interrupt Senator
Hanna, who was making a statement
for the Republicans. 1t was the real
SensatiOn Of the caucus. -

and critically ill when Ladysmith was
relieved. A private dispatch received
here by prominent South African
states that he has rallied and is likely
to recover. DR.. Jameson was anxious
to have a military command in the
campaign, but as the leader of the raid
he was excluded from the service for
political reasons and was not welcomed
when he arrived at Ladysmith a few
days before the investment of the town.
His opportunity came. When the gar
rison was fever stricken he reverted to
medical practice and did 10 mems

Kruger, who has implicit confidence in

years old, he fought as a youth in the

state secretary Of the Free State and

LONDON, March 15.-A few hours
should bring important dispatches from
Lord Roberts. No word has come from
Bloemfontein, although sharp fighting
is believed to have occurred since the
commander-in-chief was last heard Of
London confidently expects the occupa-
tion of the Orange Free State capital
has occurred as previously forecasted.
In the meanwhile attention turns to
Mafeking. That hamlet of the plains
can scarcely hold out much longer. The
news of Colonel Plumer's approach has
given substance to the rumors Of its re-
lief, but those best informed are inclined
to think the relief is more likely to be-
come accomplished by Colonel Peak
mans column from Kimberley.
Private advices have set forth that
Colonel Plumer had almost given up
hope of accomplishing anything more
than harrassing the Beers, though since
they were written, it is possible that the
diminished numbers of the investing
force may have rendered Plumer's task
more feasible.

thing is quiet in Natal. while from

total collapse of the insurgspt colonists
is imminent. ~ ~
