The letter is as follows:

Surprise in New York.
NEW YORK, Sept. 7.-Secretary Shaw's
letter on the use of public money for
speculative purposes created q great deal
of surprise In banking circles In this city,

diverted to this center. Special interest

ing depository banks from lending govern

Woolery says it will be month or
six weeks before work will begin,

He also informed US that he would
