no ExTEND RELIEF.
1t Is learned tonight from a source
close to the Secretary of the Treasury
that Secretary Shay IL seriously consld-
yering taking stops for the relief OF the
money stringency, which as yet IS more
threatened than real, though Its coming
is believed to be assured. Mr.. shaw IS
keeping Iii close touch with Now YORK LORI,
sflnanciers, and those who are familiar
with his methods do not doubt that ne
Is planning relief. 1t Is believed that
tho relief measure will be In the form OF
Increased deposits In national banks, or
the purchase .of bonds. He has not mere,
tofore approved this method, but bonds
( have steadily declined recently until they
arc now at O. figure which may DC re-
garded as reas enable.
Tho Secretary Of the Treasury mas an
nounced thatAli will pay the Panama li
Canal Company s4o,oooo00 cash whel inc
fran ~ Il ,ntified. and that he will also
pay cash Colomhia's bonus OF $lO,'Voo '.Ss.
This would VERY greatly deplete inc
Treasury reserve, which Is at present
only about s7s,ooo,oo0. But there IS no
