Suggestion that Additional Currency i

Washin.nton, October ,'H.?Trens- '['u
ury olllcials arc agreeably surprised
ul the iiiitiilier of banks throughout eai
(lie country which have already itidi- '
caled their purpose to comply with At
the sui^eslion of Comptroller of the 1
Currency Widtfeley that additional f(,l
circulation be taken out. Although ma
I lie suggestion was made only yester- ]
day afternoon, a large number of tio
telegrams were received at the department
as early as !) o'clock this mornin.tr
asking for additional circulation, W.
varying in amount from .a few thous- ]
and dollars lo two millions.
Sol Wexler, vice president of the
Whitney Central National Hank, of " "
New Orleans, who, with other prominont
New Orleans hankers, has had a jay
number of conferences wilh Secretary
(.'orlelyon in a.t effort to devise a S"J
plan by which col Ion exporters could xor
gel prompt cash returns for cotton Sci
shipments, today said:
"The .present situation can be relieved
in hut two ways: First, by the
restoration ol confidence and the return
of money which has -been withdrawn
1 roin banks in the east during
the recent panic.
"Second, by the rapid export of
our cotton, wheat, -provisions and other
products to create a balance of
trade in our favor and make importation
of gold in large quantities possible.
"The prompt and wise action of ^
Secretary ('orlelyon, aided by Mr.
Morgan and other prominent New
\ ork hankers, has gone very far toward
restoring* confiileiice.. :i i.J. mone.v
is again Ibeing r^J,-posited jn the
'ou.if inst illut ?iiVt of I lie country,
' 'v sou I hern situation is more
dill^-itt| ?r solution, owiiej to ilie nee-I
J'essary delay in transmission of ex -
change hills |o Kurope, and the time j ,
required for the puivlia-e ;1.id ship , *
inent of gold lo llii-x Count IV.
"The Southern hanks are doing }
ill. 'ir. pari by largely increasing their it'll
j eiienl.i|ion with I lie assistance of the fo
| eompl roller and the Secretary of ilici
| Treasury, which enable them to for-I
(ward ilieir foreign exchange by mail]
jin Xw \ ork without requiring cur-'j
1 re.ie\ tor llie entire amount. New
! N"it< can. in turn, as soon as these
?i'l> reach the other side, import
-"Id and then transmit currency in
i quantities IItroiighoul the agricul- *
jlural sections of tho country.
J "Some efl'ort is being made by
I la rue cotton houses lo have their
^ foreign correspondenls deposit funds
in foreign hanks subject to' cable
I ralister against advice of doeuments
j deposited in southern banks with cotton
bills of lading attached to come
forward immediately, but. in my opinion
this transaction will not be made
on an extensive scale. However willing
lac Secretary of the Treasurv mav
be to a>si>t the exports of agricultural
products ami the importation of
gold, I do ,u>t believe thai there is
anyi liing that he can do thai is practical
and within t lie law until such
time as treasury balances have been
increased to an extent to enable him
i" make large deposits of (ioveruinc'it
funds in export points such as NewOrleans,
(ialvcslon and Charleston,
so as to enable banks in these ecu- t
Ires to await the arrival of their hills j
in Kuropc and the hriuyi.it;- of yob I
auaiust them.
"New York call assist Hies(. soiitliern
banks by crediting their accounts
daily upon recepits of telegraphic information
of the amount of checks j
"ii foreign ba.iks forwarded, thereby! a,
enabling the Southern banks to cheek j
atrainsl such balances in payment of I T}
colled ions and weekly remittance ac- W
counts to interior banks throughout I ??
the country, such transactions requiring
no currency under existing condi- T t
lions and merely -bridging over tlicij^
three or four days time required while I
the foreign exchange is in transit in ! * '
this country. There can .be no per-j T)
manenl cure il'or the constantly recur-1 m,
rin.y scarcity of currency at this season
of the year until there has been
a decided reform of our currency systern,
either by Die bill proposed by the a
currency commission of (lie Amencan
Hanks' Association, or 'by the A
establishment. under proper safeguards
against politics and partisanship
of a central reserve bank."
