C. , Iy20.1 Two of the most diftlcult problems which Secretary Foster hns had to settle slnco ho assumed ofllco have been in connection with the refunding of the bonds which fall duo this autumn and the colnairo of silver. The secretary realized , when called upon to make his plans , that ho had to steer batwoan the devil nnd the deep sea and that no matter how carefully ho might navlgnto , his courio would certainly bring down on him an end less amount of criticism , but In order thnt ho might have the views of some of the best financiers of the country , ho sent out n num ber of lettets to bankers In the different states nnd nskcd for their views on the ques tion of refunding the maturing bonds nt a lower rate of Interest nnd also for their opin ions as to the silver coinage continuance , the last silver net hnvlng given him nutnorlty to use his own discretion in the matter of con tinuing the coinage of silver bullion nftcr July 1. Contrary to the usual customs of the gen tlemen to whom the secretary wrote , they promptly responded nnd , very much to his surprise , the replies wore unanimous in favor of extending the bonds , nnd with the excep tion of n few eastern bankers , there was also nn nlmost unanimous endorsement of tno con tinued coinngo of silver. The general tenor of the loplies to the latter question was , that inasmuch as there exists an Impression throughout the country that tno volume of the currency was too small , it could do no harm to continue the existing coinage rates. Secretary Foster nt the same tltno con sulted a number of senators who take the greatest Interest in financial affairs nnd they , without exception , coincided with the views of the bankers to tlio effect that the bonds should be continued nnd thnt silver coinngo should not bo stopped. Secretary Foster therefore had the endorsement of the best financial minds of the country before adopt ing His policy , and since it wns announced that the bonds would bo extended and that silver coinage would continue , ho hns con stantly received assurances thnt In both of these matters hn has pleased the public , nnd the barking of the democratic press has in consequence no terrors for him. IMPORTANT DECISION UENUERED. 'Assistant Secretary Chandler has rendered nn important decision in the matter of a right of u mortgagee to lands entered , mort gaged and subsequently sold by the entry- man , which will probably set a precedent in n number ot ether cases.

Mr. Turland alleges that ho was nt thnt tlmo ono of the directors of the bank nnd also a stockholder and depositor therein , but hail not borrowed a dollar for years ; that In Doco'iibor last there was n notorious strin gency In the money market nnd the b.inks of Philadelphia and Now York adopted n sys- tern ot Issuing loans to each other through ho clearing house association ; that is to sa\ by dcnosltlnir in the clearing notiso associa tion certain bank assets other than cash. Any bonk could wocuro temporary loans In cash through the ck-anng house , thus en abling such banks to command suillciout currency for immollato wants without a sacrifice of their assets , thcso loans being iiaid oft nnd renewed as emorgcnov required by banks in a healthy condition through u period of several months from December , Continuing , Mr. Turland alleges that Fran cis W. Kennedy represented to him that the Spring Garden Nn'lonal bank was liTn sound nnd healthy condition , nnd swore to the fnct that nil of its loans were well secured ; that the business was nourishing mid prolltable , and that it WAS onrninir more than (1 ( per cent ; had declared a dividend on a capital stock of $ T5J)00 ( ) , which was unimpaired , and also that the bank hnd n surplus fund of $1110,000 ; that Kennedy so represented to Mr. Turland that owing to the tringeney of the money market the bank was a borrower of cash temporarily Irom the clearing house until their assets ma- tuted ; that the loans would bo repaid In thu course of business , and that in view of this fact it would bo wise for the bank to strengthen the loans by n deposit of special paper ; that for this purpose Turland made the uoto by Kennedy's request with the un derstanding that the paper was to bo pro tected at maturity by the Spring Garden National bank and returned to Mr. Tur land. The defendant stated further that under the representations of Kennedy ho was Induced to executed notes for many thousonds of del lars. among them the note In suit.
