The Secretary's Position.

His position as regards increasing circu-
lation is perhaps best expressed in letter
which ne recently wrote a bank that had
been already buying bonds and which he
has consented to make public
The letter is follows:
MY Dear Sir: Your letter of the Sth is
received. l find it well-nigh impossible to
convey the purport of my request even to
the banks of whom l have made the re-
quest. much less to the public.
First. In case Of imminent danger or
actual disaster l will be compelled to use
government deposits to buy increased cir
CuiatiO
Second I desire to have from fifteen to
fifty millions additional circulation printed
preparatory, so that it can be issued in four
days instead of forty.
Third. l will be glad to have the banks
holding deposits arrange if they can to bor-
row the bonds
Fourth l desire to send no bank into
the market to buy bonds at the present
time.
Fifth. l do not care to have the cur
rcncy issued unless conditions make it we'll
nigh imperative.
Il am making no demand upon any bank
The amount of their circulation must be
determined by their directors but mas
much as the public holds the Secretary of
the Treasury some what responsible for ex-
iSting conditions l deem myself justified
in using the public funds now held by
various banks on deposit as | think best for
the public good, and in case of trouble
may think best to use these to buy in
creased circulation, the banks now holding
such funds having preference"

% RELEASE S4,000,000

Secretary Shaw has made arrangements
to release about $4,000 600 of the treasury
holdings. He has had 4 list prepared of
those national banks throughout the cOun-
try which held free or unpledged bonds at
the date of their last report and has made
inquiry for others. After making allow
ance for changed conditions since last re-
port he expects this will release at least
S4,GJ1OO0. He has sent notice to all such
that If they Will send these bonds to the
treasurer of the United States in sums #
$4,000 or more they will be designated as
temporary depositaries and the face va;ue
Of the bonds will be deposited with them to
the credit of the treasurer of the United
States. He has pursued this course in
preference to designating depositaries in
the ordinary way, which compels them 20
buy bonds IN the market at a large pre-
MUM. thus paying out more for the bonds
than they get from the government. The
customs receipts are extremely heavy at
this particular season of the year. and the
cash balance of the treasurer has been
gradually increasing
Evening star., 1902-09-13
No Occasion for Uneasiness.

The Secretary sees in present conditions
no occasion for alarm. He calls attention
to the fact that there is no evidence of a
currency famine, present or prospective
elsewhere than in New York, and even
there the rate is not high for commercial
paper, and for commercial paper he has
the greater solicitude He is well satisfied
with his efforts to increase circula ton,
which he decided upon in the early summer,
when present conditions Were plainly visi-
BILE, and has the presses busy preparing to
meet an emergency, which he does not ex-
pect, but which he thinks Il is wise TO pro-
vide against.
Thus far he has made requests only of
such banks as hold large deposits and have
very limited circulation and he is not ask
ing these TO increase to the maximum nor
to increase at all for the present.
He does not desire to force the banks into
the market to buy bonds at a rate higher
than the government is willing to pay. He
does desire TO make the best possible use
of the free bonds now held by the banks
incidentally, he likes to encourage banks
TO hold free bonds during the dull months
believing it is much better to hold bonds
that will yield 112 per cent even than to
make call loans at per cent. He is there
fore giving the banks that hold these free
bonds an opportunity to use them to most
excellent advantage This method if pur-
sued by the banks would give slight ele-
ment of elasticity to our otherwise inelastic
currency

To Anticipate Interest.

He hes also decided to anticipate the Dc
tober interest. amounting to about s4,20o,-
600 and with this in view orders have been
issued to the various subtreasuries to cash
such coupons as may be presented to them
for payment, and the treasurer of the

checks for interest on the registered bonds.

TALLY as follows up to the present time:
Tflamook City has been saved from i'm

counties are On fire. but the damage yet is
small. Superintendent Ormsby of the Cas-

not yet entered the reserve. Sixty people

and rendered homeless and a fine timber
belt destroyed Bridges and fences were

Lumber Company and the town of Palmer,
situated twenty miles east of Bridal Veil, in
this county, have been destroyed. The
