Will Accept Other Than Gov

For Deposits
IN CIRCULATION
Secretary Of tho Treasury Will Place
$1s,ooo,opo With the 3 . to Re-
Iieve the strinsency-Banks Must
Retire the Now Issue in 1so7-G0id
Imports.

New York, Oct. 23.--Secretary Shaw,
who is In the city, authorized the ar
nouncement of the Inauguration OF
form of elastic currency based on ad-
ditional bank note circulation which will
have to be called In at the rate OF
S3,0OO,000 al month before August 10
next. He also said that after today
government deposits to facilitate
gold importations would be discontin-
ued.
Mr.. Shaws action in regard to bank
note circulation will stimulate 1t to the
extent Of s1S,00o,000. He will accom-
plish this by accepting approved secur-
tiles other than government bonds 10
this amount for deposits already made,
the bonds released to be used immedi-
ately as basis of circulation without
withdrawal from the treasury.
He does not object to the assignment
of the bonds to banks other than those
now holding them, but to insure their
use they must remain in the treasury
and in addition the bank taking out tns
circulation must agree to retire the
same between the 18th day OF March
and the 10th day Of August, 1907.
The banks will be required when
taking out their circulation, to make
application for its retirement, and the
order or per cent of retirement from
month to month will be determined by
the treasury department.
In this way the millions of addition
al circulation oan be issued immediate-
Nv and gradually retired during the
spring and summer months. In this
way also Secretary Shaw. expects to
demonstrate. in limited form, the BEN
efits Of an elastic currency.
Concerning the announcement that
deposits to facilitate gold importations
will be discontinued, Mr.. Shaw said
that inportations had exceeded his ex-
pectations. that he believed for the
present America had quite its share
and that he had no disposition to dis
turb conditions In Europe by contin-
uation of that method of relief.
This action undoubtedly will be re-
ceived by England with relief. in view
OF the fact that the Bank Of England
had to raise its interest rate last week
to Offset the effects of the treasury or
der.
Tho secretary delayed his announces
ment until several hours after the mar
ket closed, but the belief that he would
lend assistance had considerable eff
feet on trade. There were gains of
from 8 to points in all of the leading
stocks. The short interest contributes
greatly to the sharp advances.
