Secretary Gage in presenting hia urrency reform bill to the House i iiuiittoe on banking and currency lid : 'The objects I h ive in tho series of iirovisions offered by me are four in luinls'r: First To conimitj.the country hornughly to the gold standard and remove so far as possible all douMs ind fears on that point, and thus strengthen the credit of the United States both at home and atroad. "HiHimd To strengthen the treas' iry in relation to its demand liabil ities, in which are include! green- lacks, treasury notes and the Inci- lental obligation to limit) tain on a parity through their interchangeabil- ty with gold, so far as may be neces sary, the present large volume of sil- r cirtilicates and silver dollars. "Third To do this in such a way as not to contract the volume of em ulation in the hands of the people. Fourth To lake the initial steps toward a system of banknote issues without a conditional deposit of pub lic bunds as security thereof. "If we prosper as a people the rev enue of the government ought to be somewhat in advance ol its expendi tures, and the public debt of the United Htates gradually reduced and dually extinguishes!. Looking at the question widely, from my Jls'st point of knowledge and exps'rienco, I k-el that if these things could lie secured the condition of the government in its relation to the currency would le much safer and stronger than now, and that through the operation of the national banknote currency, the com mercial and industrial interests of tho United States would lie greatly tdvancetl." After this initial statement it was leeined advisable to read the secre tary's bill in sletail and sliscuss its re lief by sections. Mr. (lage sa d the only purjtose of the bond section was to refund out standing bond for low-interest bond payable in gold. This would not re duco the gross amount of the debt, but it would makea siviug on in er est which the secretary calculates! at $10,000,000 annually. Mr. (fage said he excludes! from his refunding plan the tsMids issued iu lsite, although in his resMmniendatiiins lo congress ths ;i' Ixinds wire erroneously includes). The bill would exclude all the homl issues! unds r the Cleveland adminis tration. Mr. (lage explained in ds'tail the plan of issuing national banknotes for Unites! Htabs notes, trifvsury notej- and silver cirtithtttes, and the covering of the latts-r ilcmand notes for refunding Isitids. He said the purjMtse if this was to in-cumulate I.'OO.IH'O.OOS) of the demand obligat ions, placing them aside where they would relieve to ime extent thesle mandsupsin the treasury. Mr. Hrossius aske how the parity of the metals could t maintainesl if the demand obligations were with stiawn from circulation and a.vtini i latesi in the treasury. Mr. Uagesaid there would lie am ple demand notes outstanding (e yond the 200 ihhi,ihh. Mr. llnssiu asserted that the banks would Is1 called upon to maintain the parity, and that if tlx y were unable ts ds o, the country would at one be fors-ed to a silvi'r bais. Mr. Uage smilingly remarks! that he ilid not see the si union in Hist light, lie anprehs'iidtsl no such emer gency. Mr. Unge intimated, in response to iiniiiiries of Mr. Triusv that there wer? !l:in,nsM,0(in of demand oblig.t (ions outstanding.
