HUGE CASH SHIFT
DUE At TREASURY
Uncle Sam Will Receive and
Pay Out Many Millions
in Week.
BY FREDERICK GARDNER,


The Treasury will be on both the
receiving and paying ends of many
millions of dollars this week.
The regular midmonth quarterly
ernment always have been auspicious
occasions for the money market.
For the last two years they have
acquired added significance through
huge refunding issues and offerings
of new securities to meet the Govern
ment deficit.
The forthcoming mid-June opera
tions-the final quarterly transactions
for this fiscal year-will bring another
turnover of cash on a grand scale.
But for the second quarterly date in
succession the Treasury is expected
to pass an opportunity 10 raise new
cash by security offerings.
Spending Still Heavy.
The Treasury counts on its current
working balance" in excess of ST.
OOo, 900 900. together with anticipated
revenues of about $500 100000 and the
new money it has been raising by
weekly offerings and baby bond
sales, to tide it over the last month
in its fiscal year.
Income tax payers are due to dig
down for about $500, 100000 on their
second installments. Customs and
other sources of revenue are figured
on for about 5000 100000 more.
Federal spending is still hitting a
fast clip. So the Treasury perforce
follows the Broadway gold diggers'
song and sends the dollars rolling
along as fast as they come in.
Aside from ordinary and emergency
expenditures. it is slated to pay out
about s145 100000 in interest and
probably well in excess of 100000
900 on called Liberty bonds. Its
financing is expected to be restricted
to offerings in exchange of June 10
maturities. outside the weekly routine.
Money Market Glutted.
All this means a big turnover of
funds and much passing of checks
among the banks But such trans
actions cause hardly a ripple in the
money market, oversupplied with
stsgnant capital and weighed down
by a towering structure of excess re-
serves in the hands of member banks
of the Federal Reserve System.
Mid-June operations may awaken
some wistful memories for Treasury
veterans. They note $479,OO0,OOO is
due in war debt installments. But
only little Finland is expected to step
up to the counter. Just beyond June
is is the fourth anniversary of the
war debt moratorium proposed by
President Hoover, in the midst of the
European financial crisis of 1881.

HAM|L TOMS DEATH
RUMORS REVIVED
Evidence to Confirm Report
Claimed by Chicago
Ally.

copyright, 1885. by the Associated Presso
ST. PAUL, January 26.-Evidence
to confirm rumors of John Hamilton'S S
death was claimed here today, an
authoritative source disclosed.
John Dillingers chief lieutenant
succumbed to bullet wounds last April
26 at Chicago, the informant an
nounced. The information was fur
niShed by a former member OF the
gang and corroborated by a letter
penned by Dillinger himself, he added.
The evidence was said to have come
from a former henchman of the out
laws whose identity was unrevealed
beyond q hint that he was prisoner
in the Ohio Penitentiary. The letter
was written to Hamilton's girl friend,
Patricia Cherrington, by Dillinger be-
fore he himself was slain last July
Hamilton incurred his mortal
wounds last April %, the source made
known, when he and Dillinger were
fired upon by Patrolman Fred
McArdle and Deputy Sheriff Norman
Dieter near st. Paul as they were
fleeing from the trap set by Govern
ment agents at the Little Bohemia
in Wisconsin. Bleeding profusely.
Hamilton was rushed to Chicago and
kept alive by two physicians until
April 26.
A search for his grave in one of
Chicago's suburbs has been started,
the informant related.
Published reports of Hamilton's
demise recently started a hunt for
his burial plot in Minnesota on the
theory he had been secretly inferred
there, but efforts to locate the body
were fruitleSS.

LONDON. January 26.-British
motorists will bring their automobiles
out of Winter Information about
Easter to find there will be no more
driving without speed limits.
A new law limiting speeds to so
miles an hour in built-up areas is
scheduled to become effective March
18, although officials said today the
task of providing required warning
signs is proving so large that the
date may be changed to nearer
Easter.
The last speed limit general
throughout Britain held motorists to
20 miles an hour. 1t was repealed as
impractical in June, 1880. Since then
speed laws have been enforced only
in parks and several communities.
There will be no motor cycle cops

traps will be used. Policemen will

HAMILTON STILL SOUGHT.
DiIlinger Aide Remains on List of
FugitiveS.

John Hamilton, lieutenant of the

list of fugitiveS wanted by the division
of investigation of the Department
of Justice until it is established be-
yond a doubt that he is dead, it was
said by J. Edgar Hoover, director of
the division, last night.
Hoover said his agents have heard
reports from several underworld
sources that Hamilton was killed in
a gun battle with police at South
st. Paul last April, but no conf1rma-
ton of the rumors has been obtained.
Homer Van Meter, another Dill
linger gangster, later slain by police,
was with Hamilton in the st. Paul
fray, the director said. Hamilton was
in the back seat of a car which Van
Meter was driving. The pair had
escaped a short time previously from
a Federal squad at the Little Bohemia
Inn in Wisconsin
Hoover remarked, however, that
nothing has been heard of Hamilton
since last April.
