GAGE SENDS HIS ANSWER.
SAYS HE is ONLY FOLLOWING
A PRECEDENT OF YEARS.
National City Bank Selected for the
Reason That It Alone Could
Meet Bend Deposit.

Washington. January 10-Secretary
Gage today sent to congress his replies
to the resolutions recently introduced
in the senate by Mr.. Allen, of Nebraska.
and in the house by AIr. Sulzer, of New
York. The text OF his reply. which Is
an exhaustive exposition Of the man
agement OF that branch OF the treasury
finances under his administration relat-
Ing TO national repositories, contains
about 1000 words, which is supplemented
by special reports from department Of
nclals relative to special inquiries in the
resolutions. including copies OF over 1000
letters on the subject under considera-
ton.
In summing up his reply to the inqui-
ries, the secretary says:
l. That tho reason for utilizing national
banks as repositories Tor public moneys as au-
thorized by law, when the receipts OF the
treasury were exceeding expenditures, has been
to avoid the disturbance to business which
the withdrawal Of large sums OF money from
active circulation 10 the treasury vaults must
inevitably cause. The policy thus pursued by
me has been the established policy Of the gov
ernment for many years. and a departure from
IL under similar conditions would Cerldlhly
cause disastrous results
. The reason for directing the Internal rev
enue receipts into depository banks az TINS
time IS that the revenues are now largely eA-
and seem likely to do so for an indefinite time
This condition woald be menace to the bust
nose world II assurance were not given that
this surnlus would be diverted from the treas
ury vaults to public repositories. where'w nile
secure 10 the government, II would remain
available to business uses.
a The reason for selecting the National city
hank as such distributing agent was that at
the time the order issued II was one OF
but two banks which had offered bonds sur
1cient to cover the amount or the dalIy deposit.
Ito bond deposit was Sd, OOO. 600 ani that OF
the Hanover National bank Sl9IOoO Inc
National city bank was therefore the one most
naturally chosen. OF the siXty-eight batlks
applying for a share of the deposits, the Ma
tionaI city bank. the Hanover National bank
and three others. applicants for over SSOo'oo
each are the only ones out OF the slNty
constituting group one. which have not been
s,,.rliad the full amount for which they had
offered security. .
The secretary says his principle OF
ac,ion has been to so manage the re-
co,p,s and expendftures as to produce
tba least disturbance I'm that part OF
the money supply which must be at
tbo service of commercial and Industrial
nee and submits tables 10 show this
oouIIihrium was maintained. Since juno
1909 the receipts of the treasury have
amounted to eleven hundred million. by
tho aid of depositories, the amount IN
the treasury at the close OF any quar-
terlv period during that time never rose
more than 500, 500 600 above the average
for the whole period.

I was carried back to the memories Of
dear old Bill Nye. for we had stood
upon that same spot some years be-
fore, and q guide told US that We could
see seven States from that point Of
view; namely, Tennessee, Virginia,
Kentucky, North Carolina, South Car
olina, Georgia and Alabama.

quired. ~e>. 1@5 ..=sc

North Carolina" Nye asked. r.
"Oh, we know by the direction and
the conformation of the mountains
there" the man replied. =
'Well. know that's not North Car
olina," Nye declared, with some We
hemence. "And you know it, too, II
you would stop to think. Here Is a
map Of the United States, and you can
see that North Carolina is pink. Be-
sides, I know it is pink. I live in that
State considerably, and I have helped
to paint it red, but of course I go away
sometimes, and it fades a little, leaving
1t pink. No, sir; you can't stun me.
The place you are pointing at a color

Nye said those things so seriously
that the man was almost dazed. He
gave Nye puzzled look, and then went
on pointing out other sister States In

The boy had been taking piano les-

went to the musical college, hunted up
his teacher and complained that
though her son had received three les
sons, he could not play a. single tune.
The instructor politely explained that
it was necessary to first teach scales,
then exercises. and after these were
mastered, his mothers wish could be
gratified. The fond parent was not
satisfied, but she concluded to try it a
little longer. At the end of another
