BANKING AND CURRENCY.
Two Important Financial Measures Z.
he Considered.

The banking and currency committee of
the House will begin at an early date the
consideration of two important financial
bills. The first will be the bill introduced
by MIR. Overstreet of Indiana, making it
mandatory upon the Secretary of the Treas
ury to exchange gold for silver. This bill
is being urged as a necessary rounding out
OF the goid-standard law now on the statute
books. The prospects for favorable re-
port from the committee are good
The other bill Is a measure broadly de-
scribed as making more elastic the national
bank currency. 1t has not been formulated
yet, but will probably be a composite bill,
including the main features Of a number of
pending bills upon the same subject.
