In rl-.-f, that aa noon aa the revenue of the government equal th" expenditures a, new nysitem be adopted by -irh tne t'r.lted Stales note -hlch are. redeemed n gold nhall be ?i aside n a aeparate fund and not reissued except for gold. Th process would break the so-tMJlni "endless oiiam" by which the rol tia ban on former occasions pumped out of the trea-wry. The green hacks .ire upon their face redeemable In sold upon presentation, while the declar ation of eo-nrress that the policy of the government to maintain all of Its cur. rency at pur 1th gold tit is been looked upon as indirectly at least bringing fhf notes l-wut-U undt-r Uia so- alltd Sherman act within that category. The law as it now s-ramls tvqulre-s that greenbacks, when redeemed In gold, shall be resu-d by the gov-rnment In- current business trnnsactlons. and this of course makes it prootloaH.le to u-"-e them eu-ain for draw. ng r- .-e gold out of xhe treasury; thus they become what s popularly known as the e-ndleos chain for the constant withdrawal of gold. Should the presl ilenfs recommendation tie adot-ltnl, those notis which are rwl-i-med In gold would not be reissued, and thus the opportunity for continued withdrawals of gold would soon cease. The criticism which s made . ... . . i ! by tt-.ose desiring to criticise this prop osition Is that t would result In a con. traction of t'"- i-urranry, because those notes thus redeemed and retained In the treasury woukl not again go Into circu lation, and thus the circulating medium of the country be practically reduced to that extent. Ths objection Is met, how. ever, by a further recommendation by tho president that the national hanks be permitted to lsnue currency up to the par value of the 'bonds deposited as se curity for their or'ulntlon Instead of 90 per cent cf their Pace value as at pres ent; also that the government tax upon natlmnl bank circulation be reduced to one-lmlf of one per cent. Instead of one per cent ns at presnt. It s belleveo that thK f adopted, -would lead the na. tlomil banks to increase their currency to a greater extent than the reduction In currency which might come from the - retention of the I'nlted States notes re. ' deemed In gold. The mitjonal banks at present utilise as a basis for their cur rency less than one-hulf of the govern, ment bonds out-iunding. It would thus. In cose of nn Increased demand for cur. I rency. be practicable for them to Inert ise ,er, mleruiJ- ...eamou.., o. uieircur- rency. i p to tnis time tney nave utuinexi only a small proportion of the bonds available for that purpose, because of ihe fact that there s not sufficient profit In the Issuance of their notes to warrant ! such action, nnd If the president's reeom. memlatlons are carred out, and .hey are permitted to issue note up 'o the par value of the bonds, nnd the tax upon thi-ir currency is reduced, it !s believ-d j Wait it will cerralnly add to the curre--y of tho country more than any reduction which would follow the ref-mon n the treusury of the I'nlted States notes re- ! deemed in geld. The president also rec. ommends that the banks themselves be I reeiulred to redeem their own no'es in gold. Thus, by th- graduil nirement of those obligations of the government upon which gold cai constantly be de manded and making the ob11galon of Ihe hfinks payable by those banks in gold, j Chicago. Deo.

This aiternoon In the foundation Is laid for the gradual ; view of hundreds of men In Green's bis transfer to the banks of the burden of i billiard haJl near the board of trade, supplying the gold demanded by thtjM.
