A corrtspondent of the (ilobe Dcmocrat discussing legislation ( ti the currency question this winter srys: Concerning liimncial legislation, it is is'licved that It. ere will be no dill) culty in passing a bill for the re demption of groebaeks in gold, and their retention, unless gold is pre. senlisl in exchange. The president's recommendations in the past two congresses have been specific on the necessity of breaking tho endless chain in this manner. They will lie repeated. Currency legislation will probably lie attempted in the direction of an increase of the national bank circula tion from !I0 per cent to loo per cent of the par value of bonds deposited. There is a disposition to attach a sSBciai tax lo the 10 x r cent in crease thus allowed, w hich shall be heavy enough to discourage the use of the additional circulation except in emergency, when there may be a profit Hulllcient to make the payment of the; inrnascd government tax yield aSHfe return to the banks. This is the Oerinan policy. The financiers of the senate would like to go further than this, but they are afraid of getting lowt in academic discussion or silver filibustering. They would ls glad to provide for gold Ian ds, and to afford Imt ks the opportunity of issuing additional cir culation on state and city securities of iKKiuost'onahlc value. At pnwe.it it Is agreed thai the step, to tj taken for rodneming greenbacks in gold, and thereby practically retiring them, will Ist Input the United Sbtfes legally on the gold standard. Oilier plans to simplify the currency by alsilishing some of the forms of paK'r money are suggested, (hie of these is to retire treasury notes by coining Ihe bullion which they re present, and issuing silver dollars or certificates in their stead. Another scheme is to make the smallest de nomination of paper money a bill of J III), to force gold and silver into cir culation, in order to teach the people that gold is the more valuable metal through actual experience iu its everyday handling. Senator Aldrich has several of these projects in mind, but he is deter mined to secure results rather than to provoke financial discussions which will waste the tinge of the session, -ifnator Aldrich will Is-chairman of the committee on finance, audit is the disposition of then-publicans to trust him in Whatever he may re commend for their immediate con sideration and adoption in the way of financial mow-iircs. This forecast til probable action by the senate n lierts the opinions of leading republican sonators, who hae conferred and exchanged views freely during Ihe past few days.
