SAYS TREASURY is NOT
MAKING EXPERIMENTS
Mr.. Shaw Explains Plan to
Relieve Stringency.
WILL STAND BY THE BANKS
Daily Collections of Internal Revenue
and Miscellaneous Receipts
Deposited in Banks.

Mr.. Shaw, Secretary of the Treasury,
Immediately upon his return from his
Western speech making trip, yesterday
morning. issued the following statement,
in which he defined in detail his position
on the financial situation and the lines
he will follow in attempting to relieve
the existing money stringency. The
statement follows:
Money once covered into the Treasury
land this of course includes the sub
treasuries) cannot thereafter be de-
posted in banks. All customs receipts
subtreasuries. The only fund, there
fore, available for deposit in banks is
internal revenue and miscellaneous re-
ceipts before they have been actually
covered into the Treasury. These
amount to about half million per day.
and since the stringency arose to their
fullest extent have been steadfastly re-
turned to circulation. This policy will
be continued for thirty or sixty days il
needed, and longer il necessary.
NATIONAL Dduk NlICuldClOQ.
I'm the meantime national bank cir
culatioI has been increased about ST.
600 900, largely induced by the distribu-
tion of deposits. and the further in
crease to the amount of sS,OOO,OOO is as
sured.
iAll rumors of experiments have been
unauthorized by the Treasury Depart
ment 1t is to be hoped that the public
will place no credence in vagaries start
ed by irresponsible and untrrste,l men
of the street. 1t is also hoped that the
country will understand that the Treas
ury Department, to the extent of its.
ability. will stand by the banks, East
and West. North and South, and it is
hoped that the banks will stand by
every business and every interest that
is worth protecting.
Will Try No Experiments.
1.-THE only way to get money out of
the Treasury into circulation, after 1t
has been actually covered in. is by the
payment of legal obligations of the Gov
ernment. These may be anticipated. The
department did anticipate the October
interest. 1t now offers to anticipate
all interest maturing between October l
and the end of the fiscal year, il pre-
sented within sixty days. at a rebate
OF two-tenths of per cent p, month,
which is at the rate of "a per cent per
annum
"In ether words these obligations will
be prepaid at such rate as to allow
the Government to profit thereby at "a
per cent per annum. The amount matur
ing before June 30, 1903, is in round fig
ures s20.650, 900. The profit to the Gov
ernment II this offer shall be accepted
will re in round figures s220,00O.
There will be no experiments tried,
and no policy adopted until after mature
deliberation and no feelers will be sent
out. Anything to the contrary should
be discred!ted.'
