tary Vanderlip said: ~ ~
THE refunding has been s6ceessfql
from every standpoint. Holders ,of til
old bonds, IS, As and SIS of 1903. 1907
and 1904, respectively have voluntarily
offered for exchange into rs appreXi
matcly $439 100000 out of $S39,000, 900,
leaving outstanding of the part of the
interest bearing public debt less than
one half the amount subject to the law.
The net saving to the government of
interest by these transactions of $10.
7O0, 600 has been accomplished by the
payment now of the sum of $42.200.0O0,
which is really an anticipation of $751;
OOO,O which have had to be paid with
in the next eight years, in case the old
bonds were permitted to run to ma
turity.
THE 4 per cents. of 1907 have been
exchanged in greater amount than any
other class, their total up to and in
the per cents. of 1908, sos, 900, 900 We're
exchanged and of the per cents. of
1904. $40. 100000.
THE secretary of the treasury still
has authority under the law to resume
refunding should he deem it proper to
do so.
1T may well be doubted whether the
treasury within the next eight years
during which the bonds subject to re-
fundment were to mature, could have
discharged that total indebtedness Of
$500 900 600 The present sinking fund
requirements are substantially S50000.-
600 a year and the retirement of the
public debt can be more easily accom-
plished at the rate of S5O,0OO0OO for
each of the next eight years than if the
secretary of the treasury had been con-
fronted with the problem of dispoSing
of an average of 500. 100000 year. The
banks of the country have exchanged
s261 $3.50. 900 of the old bonds for the new
ones. while individual holders have eX-
changed s16S,111 900.
From March IA to date 395 new
banks have been organized of which
$50 were with a capital stock less than
$50. 900 and lis with a capital stock
over that amount. The aggregate capt.
tai of the former class was Sl.312, 900
and of the latter. S12 $50, 900. a total adj

men were housed and cared for most
Hospitality. The party was controlled
as military formation and carried
TIE national flag at the head of the
column, which latter, says Ensign Nc
Cauley, elected considerable cnthuSi-
assn and show of patriotism on the part
of the resident and tourist Americans.
The party was given free access to
many famous sights and places in
Rome. The American rector. Monsignor
SchmitZ. was untiring in his efforts to
place all possible privileges in the way
of the visitors. AS a fitting climax
to their stay in the city, the men OBJ
tanned an audience of the Pope which
Ensign McCauley described as follows:
The forenoon of Friday, Dec. :. was
the time set for the audience with the
Pope. We marched through the Vati-
can into st. Peters and were assigned
a place Immediately fronting and on
the right of the altar. with an unim-
peded view of the service and ceremo-
MOS. l have no idea of the number of
the audience but it is sufficient to say
that the whole of st. Peters was
crowded which means many thou
So nds. Not every one who came was
admitted. for each was required to
have the usual ticket.
The Pope was carried in state, ac-
compa MED by the noble and papal
guards. and a retinue of household
chamberlains. priests of the church
and choristers. The acclamations,
greetings and applause We're tremen-
dOus and several times during the pro-
ceSsion our men gave three cheers and

gave the benediction.
After q short service the Pope's
chair was placed for the presentation
of the few who We're allowed the honor
of approaching him and the American
officers were called up Immediately fol-
lowing the bishops. l thanked the Pope
for his great kindness of the American
sailors and he replied by extending to
us cordial welcome and by express
ing his pleasure and interest in every
way. He made some greeting or show
of kindness to each officer in turn

In diplomatic quarters the accept

an unconditional acceptance, although
it is such a concurrence in the general
