TO ISSUE PANAMA BONDS
AS A MEANS OF AFFORDING RE-
LIEF TO SITUATION
PLAN HAS HEARTY APPROVAL
Being the Outcome of Several White
House Conferences

Washington. Nov. Secretary
| COrtelyOu tonight made the impor-
| tant announcement, that as a means
of affording relief to the financial
situation, the treasury would issue
$50, 100000 of Panama bonds and
100000 certificates of indebted
ness, or so much thereof as may be
necessary. The certificates will run
for one year and bear per cent in
tereSt.
The secretary's action in coming to
the relief of the financial situation
meets with President Roosevelt's
hearty approval, and the plan is the
outcome of the several White House
conferences which have been held
within the past few days, when the
financial situation was under con-.
Asideration.
Secretary Cortelyou says that the
Panama bonds will afford most sub
stantial relief, as the law provides
that they may be used as a basis for
additional national bank Calculations.
He also states that the proceeds from
the sale of certificates can be made
directly available atHpOints where the
need is most urgent, and especially
for the movement of the crops,
which, he says, If properly aeceler-
ated will give the greatest relief, and
result in the most immediate finan-
cial returns"

Timely City Ordinance.

1t having come to pass that some
persons failing TO understand that
the Clearing House Certificates are
really and truly good fr their face
value, and being DESTROYS of having
currency instead, and there being a
few people who were taking advant-
age of such persons by discounting
the certificates, thereby specializing
on those who have not the knowledge
to protect themselves against such
practice, the City Council wisely met
today and passed an ordinance that
will protect them from being i'm
posed upon in this manner, by attach
ing a severe penalty TO the individual
taking such advantage, and conduct
ing such business.
This timely action upon the part Of
the City Council no doubt, will be
heartily endorsed by every mer-
chant and business man in the city,
as ii will furnish substantial protec-
ton against the INSCRIPTIONS specu-
lation in and abuse of the plan they
themselves sought and obtained by
generous response of our local banks
1t will also protect the ignorant and
unwary among us from being made
the victims of such practice. The
ordinance appears in another column.

CONDITIONS IMPROVED
SENSATIONAL LOSSES ARE FAST
DISAPPEARING
THE SCARCITY OF CURRENCY
Is Being Overcome, and Less Use of
Clearing House Certificates

New York, Nov. 17.-Another
.eyentful week in the financial world
Aosed on Saturday, with conditions
i1New York greatly improved. Even
with the arrival of less than half of
the sgold which has been engaged
abroad. the figures of the bank state
mentA no longer show the sensational
losses Of the previous two weeks. On
the contrary, they dropped back to
changes as insignificant in amount as
during the dullest weeks of a mid
summer, free from any disturbance.
The losses shown by the average
system of $364,1OO in specie and
s771, 500 in legal tender notes were
only a fraction of the sum of about
$4,000, 900 surrendered to the treas
ury to maintain its cash balance
Gold engagements made on Friday,
which amounted of themselves to
about 100000, brought up the
total engaged thus far for America to
about 100000, and of this
amount it is estimated that S33,191,-
600 has already been laid down in
New York or the other American
points for which it was destined The
premium on currency has practically
the effect of premium on gold, and
promotes gold imports under condi-
tons of foreign exchange. where they
would not occur if currency and bank
credits were at par. In this respect,
the necessities of the situation have
made the premium effective in pro-
noting the importation of gold, but
ine premium declined during the
week and it is believed by leading
bankers that it will disappear within
'hefnext week or ten days if nothing
ulasuaf occurs. Reports from inter
10y points indicate that the scarity of
farrency is being overcome, and that
come eases there is less use of
soaring house certificates.
