having lately moved to the city OF
Alexandria, we see several of the
newspapers have made the mistake
of sa wing he wasfrom Rapides parish.
Mr.. Lee has been eminently successful
as a business man in Grant parish,
and, if he will bring to bear his acu-
men on the affairs Of the New Or

ought to be strong factor in help

The Monetary stringency.

The Monetary Stringency.
The decision of Secretary of the
Treasury Cortelyou not to issue
more than $25, 0OO,O 900 of the 3 per
cent Treasury certificates when an
issue of 800, 900, 900 had been pro-
posed, and his explanation that
this decision was the result of
conviction that the necessity for
the full issue had passed, is con-
sidered to have been tantamount
to an official announcement that
the Crucial stage of the financial
stringency has passed and that full
currency payments by the banks
everywhere will now shortly be re-
sumed. 1t is also significant in
this connection that the premium
on currency heretofore paid in
New York has ceased and good
sound securities are coming more
and more in request by investors,
showing that boarded money is
again seeking employment in the
ordinary channels.
1t is understood--in fact, it has
been announced-that the 1875, 000,-
600 of 3 per cent certificates have
all been allotted to national banks
that have promised to use them as
basis of new circulation. With
out doubt also the great bulk of
the new Panama bonds will be
used to secure additional circula-
ton.
As soon as the masses of the peo-
pie fully realize the significance of
the practical abandonment by the
Treasury ofthe issue Of certificates,
they will realize that the panicky
stage of the money market has
passed aud they will begin to put
their money back in circulation
either through investments or by
depositing it in bank. This re.
