The 12,000,000.000 now being burned represent nearly the entire war-time Issue of government bonds, the "7-30 ' variety, Including those Issued for the national bonded debt up to the year 1898,' when several new war issues were made. A large portion of the bonds now being used for beating pur poses in the bureau of engraving and printing, were originally used in lieu of actual currency, the Union soldiers being paid off In these bonds after the war. They were dubbed seven thirties because they paid 7.3 per cent Interest, the highest ratio ever paid by the United States government. When It was decided that this Im men se issue of bonds should be de stroyed, the committee In charge of the work at first ordered that they be macerated. The bonds were so large however, that the macerator refused to work and an effort was therefore made to cut them up Into small pieces But the paper on which they were printed was too tough to allow of this operation and therefore burning was the only method of destruction . left. e e' ikdowkhI' rion Ori low cut Oxfords and all f Summer THE TOGGERY AL ANDREWS and burned in the. furnaces of the same burldlng where they were first printed.
