NO MORE DOLLARS
SENT OUT FREE
Fund Available for Expressing
Silver Coins Used Up, and
the Practice Will Stop.

WASHINGTON, y. c., March Co.
Secretary Cortelyou has issued gen.
eral circular announcing that the
amount appropriated by Congress for
the transportation of silver coin for
the year 1905 having become exhaust
ed mo more standard silver dollars
will be sent to applicants free of
charge for transportation from the
Offices of the Treasurer or the several
Assistant Trcasurers of the United
states. The policy of shipping to
banks silver coin free of express
charges was adopted about twenty
five years ago when 1t was deemed de-
srable to stimulate the general CIR
culation of silver. and this policy has
been continued to the present time
with the exception of the first three
months in 1908, when there was no
appropriation available for the free
distribution of silver coin. During
the last several years, however, the
subject of permanently disseminating
this appropriation, especially as to
standard silver dollars, has been under
frequent discussion in Congress and
the opinion Is expressed that the gov
eminent. no longer having any inter-
est in extending the general use OF
silver coin, the present Congress may
decide not to make any further APP
preparation for that purpose. Two
years ago the sum appropriated was
divided and specific amount named
for the shipment of standard dollars
and another amount for subsidiary sill
YER. Shipments of subsidiary silver
will continue to be made as usual, as
the appropriation for that purpose Is
not yet exhausted. The shipments Of
standard dollars during the last sew
eral years has averaged about $4,000
900 and during the crop moving pc
Rod tho shipments havo averaged as
much as $1,5oo,o00 a month. Tho to-
tai cost to the government of the free
transportation OF silver coin. includ-
ing subsidiary for the year 1907 was
s163.o51, or at tho rate OF s2.40 per
$1,000. The largest demands for sill
yer are said to come from the South
and some sections OF tho West, where
1t largely takes the place. in general
circulation. Of paper money OF small

NAVY DEFICIENCY
BILL, S2,000,000

WASHINGTON, D. c. March 2e.-
Secretary Of the Navy Metcalf to-day
made statement to the subcommittee
on deficiencies Of tho House Committee
on Appropriations in support of his
recent request for a 100000 defcien-
cy appropriation to be made at once
in order that work on the battleships
now building might not be interrupted.
He enlarged upon his recent commu-
nication to the committee, showing that
the department is already indebted
to the extent of 100000 to contractors,
and contending that serious results
would follow IL the money was
not appropriated. The deficiency
is due to the fact that the last
naval appropriation bill carried s2.-
100000 less than was called for by the
departments estimates.
The subcommittee voted to report
favorably to the full committee to-
morrow the 100000 deficiency esti-
mate.

Privileges and Elections. and by the
Senate later.
Mr. Rayncr presented the creden-
tials Of his colleague and asked that
he be sworn In.
Mr.. Burrows, of Michigan, chairman
OF the Committee on Privileges and
Elections, objected to the admission of
the law requires that two Tuesdays
shall intervene between the time no.
tice of a vacancy in the Senate is
given and an election. AS the late
Senator Whyte died at O'Clock on
Tuesday and his successor was chosen
on the following Tuesday. Mr.. Burrows
claimed that the law had not been COM
piled with. and suggested that he be
not allowed to take his seat.
Senator Raynor made an earnest APP
peal for the reception OF his colleague
He claimed that the statute had been
complied with; that to deny his COL
league his seat would make necessary
an extra session OF the Legislature
of Maryland at cost of $4,000. and
that even II the contention of the
chairman Of the Committee on Prlvi-
be correct. Senator-elect Smith should
be sworn in and his case considered by
the proper committee.
Many speeches were made. and when
a vote was finally taken thirty-four
Senator'S favored swearing in the SEN
ator-elect, about twelve OF them being
Republicans, and twentynine favored
excluding him.
This temporary conclusion of the
case gives Mr.. Smith his seat, but does
not finally dispose OF the question of
his right to retain 1t. The Committee
on Privileges and Elections will now
take the matter up for consideration.
