CURRENT TOPICS.
Resolutions have been intro
duced in congress calling upon
the secretary of the treasury for
information in regard to deposits
of public funds in banks and also
as to the relations between the
national treasury and certain
banks. The inquiry is an en
tirely proper one. It has been
alleged that Secretary Gage has
favored one or more banks in the
matter of deposits and that the
relations of the treasury with
these institutions are not strictly
in conformity with the law. It
is the duty of congress to give
attention to these allegations and
to ascertain the facts and it is
not to be doubted that the secre
tary of the treasury will be found
most willing to furnish all the
information asked for. Under
the law of 1864 the secretary of
the treasury is authorized to de
posit receipts from internal re
venue in banks that are govern
ment depositories and which fur
nish government bonds to secure
such deposits. Pursuant to this
authority and in order to give
relief to the money market,
Secretary (Jage ordered the inter
lial revenue to be deposited in
banks complying with the law
and he designated one New York
bank, which has long been a
government depository, as a s >rt
of fiscal agent of the government
to distribute the deposits to
other banks.
This gave that
institution the handling of a very
large amount of public money
and was held by some to be a
discrimination in its favor for
which there is no warrant in law.
In a recent interview Secretary
Gage said in defense of his
course: “There came a panic
in Wall street on the 18th of
December and stocks suffered an
awful depreciation. There were
fears that the depression would
spread over the whole country
and the treasury was looked to
to put money in circulation and
relieve the stringency. There
was only one way for us to do it
and that was to deposit money
in the banks, so we gave notice
that deposits in banks would be
increased and that those deposi
tories putting up more bonds as
securities would receive the de
posits.
Sixty-six banks re
sponded and put up additional
bond securities.’’ Of these the
National Citv bank ofNew York
put up $400,000,000 in bonds
and having thus given the
largest security was deemed by
the treasure officials to be the
proper institution for gathering
and ^distributing the funds de
rived from internal revenue.
