To the Citizens of Sandersville.—The

Secretary Cortelyou
is Confident.
Washington, Nov. 18.—Secre
tary Cortelyou is not disposed to
discuss for publication his action
■if yesterday. lie is confident,
however, that it was wise and Hil
ly just ified by conditions. The
i-nie at par of treasury certilicates
hearing 8 per cent interest is ex
pected in bring to light particu
larly all of the currency that has
been withdrawn from the. banka
by small depositors during the
last three weeks. The issue, it is
believed, will prove exceptionally
attractive to small a9 well as large
investors and the treasury officials
are confident that the demand for
them will be unprecedented.
Secretary Cortelyou lias decided
to provide for the registration of
tho new treasury certificates and
when registered to receive them
as security for circulation oY’ de
posits. The Secretary’s statement
issued last night, provides no
method of paying for the certifi
cates purchased by depository
banks except by the return of
actual currency, nor has it devel
oped whether the Secretary intends
to require currency from banks in
which lie will make deposits of
certificates or accept savings bank
bonds as lias long been the prac
t ico. The net result, it is pointed
out, would be practically the same
in either event, for it the curren
cy was required it would be al
most immediately redeposited.
The issue of additional circula
tion to banks which have applied
for it since November 1, now
amounts approximately to $2-1,-
000,000 anil from inclination re
ceived at the treasury department
it is expected that the New N ork
city banks alone will increase this
amount by $20,000,000 within the
next two weeks. By December 1
it. is thought the whole amount of
additional circulation issued dur
ing November will have reached
$50,000,000.
if they are supplied with the necessary
equipments for the purpose, their effi
ciency will he increased.
Owing to contracts and obligations
under which the City is at present la
boring. we can ill afford at this lime to
pay out this sum of money, and I
m ike an appeal to the citizens of Han-
dersville (or voluntary contribution*
for the reel and ladders, Every citizen
should and doubtless does feel a pride
in our splendid fire company, who with
out reward endanger their lives and
undergo discomforts in the protection
of our property, and shouhl depm it a
pleasure and privilege to contribute
liberally towards giving them the nec
essary equipment.
Fire Chief, W. R. Beach aud Assis
tant Chief, L. M. Mitchell, and a com
mittee of firemen, to he appointed by
them, have the rpatter in hand and a
subscription list is also open at the of
fice of the City Clerk. It ia hoped
that citizens will advise the committee
or the City Clerk of their subscriptions
at an early (late, so that this reel and
ladders can be bought at once.
Respectfully yours,
A. W. EVANS, Mayor.
