MAY STOP BOND PURCHASES.
Secretary Shaw Win Recommend 1t at
TO-day's Cabinet Meeting.


WASHINGTON, March l3.-In all proba-
bility Secretary Shaw will within a few
days officially announces that the purchase
Of bonds by the Treasury will DO discon-
tinued. The question will be taken up
at the meeting OF the Cabinet Tomorrow
for definite settlement, and Mr.. Shaw will
recommend that the purchases cease, for
the present at least. The Secretary does
not altogether repudiate the bond purchase
policy Of his predecessor Mr.. Gage. by whose
order the purchases were begun just about
a year ago. He believes that under pres
ent conditions, however, II is hardly worth
the Governments while TO buy bonds,
and that in some respects the policy IL
actually unwise. The amount of the bonds
offered for Government purchase has fallen
of considerably within the last two or three
months, until The daily average is very
low.
There were indications some time ago
hat some Of the National banks were re-
ducing their circulation, with the specific
purpose OF selling the withdrawn bonds.
Secretary Shaw has no doubt that this
condition, which has continued, is due to
the high price of bonds caused by the roy
ernment's presence in the market as a
buyer. Several days g 1t became known
that the Secretary won hereafter decline
to favor as Government repositories those
banks which have reduced their circulation
with tho apparent purpose Of selling bonds
During the last eleven months the Treas
ury has expended upward OF SIS 900. 600
in bond purchases.
Wall Street rumors that the Secretary
of the Treasury may without notice sus-
pend the purchase OF Government bonds
resulted in the turning into the United
states Sub-Treasury yesterday of bonds
20 the par value OF $780, 500, for the pur-
case OF which there was disbursed S52s,-
23s. With tho single exception of one block
Of 81 ,oO0, 900 par value OF the a. Of 1907,
the offering ~ Of Government bonds have
been very light for some time past.
