The President of an eastern bank bad
an interview with . Secretary .11N:dwell
relative to the exchange of bonds for
banking purposes, under the new Fund
ing bill. Ile stated %that he held nearly
one million of 'ills, and that Reading the
conversion of their capital etockinto new
bonds, they would lose the interest on
the same, to nay nothing of the loss in
market value by throwing so large an
amount of bonds into the market at the
time the exchange is required by the bill
le to be made.
The Secretary replied that he did not
see any great hardship in the case stated,
as a bank could easily make a loan for a
few days to purchase the new. bonds., and
then sell their old ones if necessary. As
to the market being flooded with bonds,
there were only two hundred and twenty.
live millions required to be exchanged lb
one year, and as this was a rate consider
ably less than one million per day, he
thought there was no danger but what
the investment would cover that amount
in that time. The Secretary saw no rea
son to fear a financial panic from. the
proposed change in the securities of the
banks, and could not, therefore accept
the suggestion that the clause relating to
the same in the fending bill should be
changed.
—Toe strikers on the government
canal at Keokuk have returned, hut aro
again out,of employment, the rapid rise
In the riverhaving swept away the em- 1 ,
bankment, flooded the works and buried
the engines, machinery and materials Is
the yards. immanse Ices will be caused
to the contractora and overone thousand '
men kept out of employment for weeks,
perhaps months.
—Soyeral deaths are rpported on the
frontier during the groat snow storm
lasting from the 11th to the 16th. 1 one
cage a house was burned, and a woman
and three children escaping with only a
quilt to protect them, soon died In the
avow. Two brothers want to a stable a
few rods from the house, to milk cows,
and quickly from to death.
