HBtt Tfiey Were Changed Front Tl'r3e to Time and Wiint Ciiine of the Chances. VTASEiUfGTOX, Aug. 15. The Secretary cf the Trefcstiry awl other olScials jf t-st department are constantly recelHing letters of Inquiry as to this, thor the other subject pertaining' to -our monetary ryslem, and tftir money, and In order to a-swrr such inquiries, arid at tfie same time diffuse other useful knowledj-e re lative; to our financial system, the Secre tary of the Treasury has prepared and had published a pamphlet setting forth a -Ride collection of valuable Information. It !s his hope that this pamphlet will be come -widely circulated, as, being a pliln statement of facts regarding our curren cy, It Is not only a iiseful -vrork, but a pood campaign document for the Republi can parts. The following: extracts are made: TIic Standard of Value. "In providing for the coinage of the precious metals Congress established, by tn rt April 2, 1792. the standard of value, cor.s'stlmr of certain gold and sliver coins, at a ratio of 35 to 1 that is to say. the alue of an ounce of fine gold was in ef fect declared to be equal to the value of 15 ounces of line silver. A list of coins authorised by the act of April 2, 1712, w.th their weights and .fineness, will be fpund in another place. Both gold and si'ier coins were declared to be standards. "The ratio of 15 to 1 was adopted in pursuance of Investigations conducted bv Alexander Hamilton, Secretary of tni Treasury, who, in his report tipon tne subject, said that 15 to 1 was a near ap proximation to the commercial value of the two metals. It wa soon discovered, however that gold at the ratio of 15 to 1 was undervalued, and silver became practically the only metallic money avail able for use in the United States. In 1S34 the ratio was changed to 16.002 to 1 and in 3837 it was changed to 15.9SS to 1. That Is the present ratio and is commonly called 16 to 1. By this change sliver was t-nCervalued and gold came Into "use in its place. 'By the act of February 12, 3S73. the coinage of the standard silver dollar was d.scontlnued, and the cold dollar of 5.8 grains of standard gold, S00 fine, was de clared to be the unit of value. The sub sequent restoration of the coinage of sll vcr dollars under the act of February 2S. 3S78, was on Government account and did net restore the silver dollar to Its former X'.zce as. a standard of value. "But while Congress provided for the so-called double or bimetallic standard, s-xh double standard has never been ef fective ir, this country. From 1792 to 1S34 silver was the metal by which all values were measured, and since 1834 gold has been, and still Is, the sole actual standard. Meaning? of lO to 1. "The pharse 16 to 1,' as applied to coin age, means that the mint value of 16 ounces of silver shall be equal to the mint lalue of 1 ounce of gold, that is, tat 16 ounces of sliver shall be colnablo into as many standard silver dollars as 1 ounce of gold is colnabie into standard gold dollars. 'Standard bullion contains 900 parts of pure gold or pure silver and 109 parts of copper alloy. "The coining value of an ounce of pure ro!d is $20.37183, and the coining value of an ounce of standard gold is $18.10465. "The coining value In standard silver dollars pf an ounce of pure silver is SI 2929, and the ooinlng value of an ounce of standard sliver is 51.1C36. What Is Selgnlorngre. "This term, as used in the United States, means the profit arising from the coinage of bullion. The Government does rot purchase "gold buttlon, but coins it on private account. There is no protlt from the coinage of gold bullion, the face Aalue of gold coins being the same as their bullion value, but at the present rallo ot 16 to 1 the face value of the Elher dollar is greater than Its bullion value; therefore when silver bullion is purchased and coined Into dollars there is a profit arising from such coinage, the amount of which depends upon the price paid for the bullion. For example, there are 3714 grains or pure silver Tn a dollar and there are 8o grains of pure fllver In a fine ounce. The coinage valfce cf a fine ounce is therefore 5L292S. If the f ne ounce can bo purchased for 70 cents, the profit of its coinage (the seigni orage), is $0.5929, and the profit on the S71H grains of pure silver- In the single Collar Is 50.45o6 , which is the difference between the actual cost of the bullion in the dollar and the nominal value of the coin "Tho silver purchased by the Govern ment is carried on Ine uooss of the Treasurj' at its actual cost, ahd the eelgnloragfi la declared on the coinage of each month and paid into the Treasury. Coin&cc of Gold. "In the United States there is free and "unlimited coinage of gold; tnal is, stand ara gold bullion may be deposited at the mints In any amount, to be coined for the benefit of the depositor, without charge for coinage; but when other than standard bullion is received lor coinage a charge is made for parting, or for re fining, or for copper, -alior. as the case may be. Rehinlnsr is the elimination from the bullion of all base metals. Parting is J tne separation of any silver which may bo contained in the bullion. The charges for these operations vary according to the actual expenses. "When copper is added for alloy, a charge of 2 cents per ounc is made for the amount actually allied. The depositor receives in gold coin the full value of the gold in his bullion, less such charges as are Indicated nb?e "The mints may lawfully reruso to re ceive gold bullion of less value than Jib, cr when it is too base for coinage; but n. practice deposits of gold bullion are ac cepted without regard to amounts, and rejected only when too base for coinage. Colnnpre of Silver. "Under existing law In the United States subsidiary silver and standard sil ver dollars arc coined only on Govern ment account. They are coined from bul lion purchased by the Government, and the profits of s.uch colnsge belong to the Government. There ls at present no au th rlty for the purchase of bullion for the co nsge of standard silver dollars, but, if r.ecessarv, sufficient bullion may be pur chased to maintain the stock of subsidiary- silver. "The Government ! still coining stand ard silver dollars from the bullion pur chased under the act of July 14. 3BS0 The amount of bullion on hand November 1 3S when the purchasing clause of that act was repealed was 3w,C39,S3S.CT fine ounces, costing .$125,738 2S the coining - alue of which was $181,914 981. Between Jsovember 1 1SSB. And July 1, 19C5, there : were coined from fhts bul'loa S.lG5.6Co standard sll er do'lars, of which $54,833,083 re; n. sent the cost of the bullion coined, 1 ire held in the Treasury for the re- Irrr in of Treasury- notes of 1SS0. while ft.

Tltrce Per Cent Loan of 10OS-TLO1S. "In 1ESS the war with Spain involved the Government in expenditures which could not be met by the revenues then being received under existing law. Congress ac cordingly enacted what was known as the war revenue act of XB9S, which was ap proved by the President, June 13. 18SS. Be sides providing for Increase of revenues, it authorized an Issue of bonds. "The total amount of bonds Issued un- J der this act was 1355,792,640. "The 3 per cent bobds are payable in coin, and while It is not specified In their terms that they are payable in. coin of the standard value of July 34. 1870. then ars In effect payable In stfch coin. Up to this time the Government had never Is sued any bonds payable, by their terms, either principal or Interest, In gold coin or in silver coin. "During the recent session of Congress, however, ther6 was enacted a bill, popu larly known as the financial bill. Under this act the Government, for the first time In Its history, has issued bonds pay able specifically In United States gold coin." Change In "Washlnston Postofllcen.
