oct. 10. 1905. IL had attained a maximum
Of $7iS. 425, s23. No other government has
ever held so much of the precious metal.
There is an increased demand for more
paper currency Of the denominations OF

The treasury has partially supplied the
needs by redeeming and retiring notes OF

cal year was about SOL. H0.0C0. exclusive Of
