The requirements of the sinking-fund for the past fiscal year, including a balance of $16,305,873.47 from the preceding year, have been
fully met. It is estimated that the requirement for the present fiscal
year will be $44,422,956.25, of which there has been api)lied during the
first four months ofthe year, the sum of $31,196,350.
There seems to have been confusion in some minds, of the sums
paid to meet the lawful needs of the sinking-fund, and those paid for
the reduction of public debt by direct payment and redemption thereof.
To my report of last year was appended a table (Table L) of all the
moneys paid for bonds for the sinking-fund; and a table (Table I)
showing the condition, of that fund from the beginning of it in May,.
1869, down to June 30, 1881. It was stated in my report that there
was a balance then due the fund of $16,305,873.47; It has been said
that this was erroneous. The report of my predecessor, Mr. Secretary
Morrill, made in 1876, was relied upon as so showing. He said that
the terms of the sinking-fund act required that the public debt should
be reduced by the close of the fiscal year in 1876 b}^ the sum of
$433,848,215.87; that the public debt had, however, been reduced at
that time by the sum of $656,992,226.14, or over two hundred and
twenty-three millions more than those terms required. He did not say,
nor did he mean to say, that the reduction he announced was achieved
through the operations of the sinking-fund. What he said, and meant
REPORT OF T H E SECRETARY OP T H E TREASURY.
V
to say, was that, though the sinking-fund had not been filled to the
amount contemplated by the act of Congress which provided for it,
and so the letter of the law had not been observed, yet that, by other
modes, the public debt had been reduced by more than the sum which
the sinking-fund act contemplated, and so the spirit and intent of the
law had been met and the faith of the Government with its creditors
kept. And so, after his time, though the sinking-fund has been a
creditor, the public debt has been decreased by more than a strict
adherence to the sinking-fund act would have brought about. My predecessor, Mr. Secretary Sherman, reported in 1877 a deficiency in the
sinking-fund, but a reduction of public debt near two hundred and
twenty-one millions more than the sinking-fund act, literally carried
out, would have effected.
Compared with the previous fiscal year, the receipts for 1882 have,
in the following items increased $44,578,081.99: In customs revenue,
$22,251,054.23; in internal revenue, $11,233,209.94; in sales of public
lands, $2,551,277.20; in direct tax, $158,624.80; in tax on circulation
and deposits of national banks, $840,678.73; in proceeds of sales of
Government property, $52,785.85; in repayment of interest by Pacific
Eailway Companies, $29,720.57; in consular fees, $8,922.98; in customhouse fees, $7,538.35; in custQms emolument fees, $155,083.98; in
marine-hospital tax, $22,155.89; in Indian trust funds, interest and
premium, $5,753,308.29; in deposits by individuals for surveying public
lands, $248,160.81; in registers^ and receivers' fees, $243,295.29; in fees
on letters-patent, $141,788.72; in profits on coinage, $648,208.12; and
in sales of ordnance material and small stores, $232,268.24. There was
a decrease of $1,835,124.28, as follows: In revenues of the District of
Columbia, $301,022.82; in sinking-fund for Pacific Eailway Companies,
$8,909.12; in customs fines, penalties, and forfeitures, $44,789.19; in
steamboat fees, $27,664.91; in sales of Indian lands, and interest
on deferred payments, $1,078,316.30; and in miscellaneous items,
$374,421.94; making a net increase in the receipts from all sources
of $42,742,957.7L
The expenditures show a decrease over the previous year of
$20,343,982.30, as follows: In the m v y Department, $654,625.40; in
interest on the public debt, $11,431,534.39 ; and in civil and miscellaneous, $8,257,822.51. There was an increase of $17,612,534.28, as follows : In the War Department, $3,104,033.64; for Indians, $3,222,586.31;
and in pensions, $11,285,914,33—making a net decrease in the expenditures of $2,731,448,02.

REPORT OF THE SECRETARY OF THE TREASURV.
IX
amount of bonds available for exchange, as contemplated in legislation
then pending, was still further reduced by the call issued July 10,
1882, for $16,000,000, to mature September 13, 1882.
By the eleventh section ofthe act approved July 12,1882, entitled ^ An
^
a»ct to enable national banking associations to extend their corporate
existence, and for other purposes,'' the Secretary was authorized to receive at the Treasury, bonds of the United States bearing three and
S half per cent, interest, and to issue in exchange therefor regisL
tered bonds of the United States bearing interest at the rate of three
per cent, per annum.
These bonds were to be redeemable at the pleasure of the United
States, after all bonds bearing a higher rate of interest, and which
were thus redeemable, had been redeemed or called. There is also
the important provision that the last of the bonds issued under the
act, and the substitutes for them, should be the first called for payment,
and that this order of payment should be followed until all should have
been paid. Thereby the bonds first issued, and the substitutes for them,
made on the assignment and transfer of them, were made more desirable, as likely to have a longer time to run. This gave rise to the query,
how the order of issue of the '' threes" to the holders of the '' three and
a halfs'' should be determined. A method was devised by the Department which gave the precedence to diligence in offer of surrender of the
three and a halfs; and which determined hy lot, giving the same chance
of priority to all having part in it, who of the equally diligent should
have the first privilege in issue. I t is believed that justice was done
to all. The provision that the substituted bonds should have the same
rank with the originals, in the order of call for payment, was at first
thought to preclude the holder from a division of one bonci of larger
denomination into two or more bonds of smaller denomination. To
have maintained this, would have inconvenienced the transfer and
division of securities among several alike interested in ^ large bond.
But as it was impracticable to divide one bond into two or more and
give to the latter the number of the former, and so preserve the right
to be deferred in calls for payment, it has been determined to yield to
a wish for a division, upon the holder waiving that right in exjpress
term§ in the instrument of assignment. This puts ux)on the Eegister's
Office more labor and the greater exercise of care, but, being a convenience to the holder of the bond, they will be cheerfully undertaken.
On the day following the approval of the act, the Secretary issued a
circular announcing the readiness of the Departmen t to effect the
exchange thus provided for; August 1, 1882, being named as the.date
REPORT OF T H E SECRETARY OF TIIE
TREASURy.
upon which said exchange would begin. Under the provisions of tho
act the,exchanges of the three and a half per cent, continued bonds
began on the date named and continued until September 20, upon
which date they were temporarily suspended, in order to allow the
preparation of the schedules and checks for the dividend due ISTovember 1 on the three and. a half per cent, bonds which had not been
exchanged, as well as upon the new three per cent, bonds which had
been issued.
From the beginning of the exchanges until the suspension three and'
a half per cent, continued bonds were received for exchange into
three per cent, bonds as follows:
Act of March 3, 1863, continued at three and a half per
cent
$13, 231, 650
Five per cent, funded loan of 1881, continued at three and
a half per cent
246,138, 850
Total
259, 370, 500
and three per cent, bonds were duly issued therefor.
The interest on the surrendered bonds was adjusted to August 1^
1882, and the three per cent, bonds issued in exchange therefor
carried interest from that date.
The exchanges were resumed ISTovember 1, since which time there
have been received $21,024,250 in three and a half per cent, continued
bondSjJbr which a like amount of three per cent, bonds have been
issued ; making a total issue to December 1, 1882, of $280,394,750. .
The reduction in the annual interest charge by xeason of these exchanges is $1,401,973.75.
The Department knows no reason why it should not continue t a
afford every facility for these exchanges so long as three and a half
per cent, bonds remain outstanding and uncalled.
The following table shows the changes in the interest-bearing debt
during the year:

were in the sub-treasury at New York about $19,000,000, and in the
vaults of the assistant treasurer at San Francisco nearly $14,000,000,
and in the mint at that place nearly $27,000,000, making nearly
$41,000,000 in San Francisco. This large accumulation at San Francisco is useless; the call for silver dollars for use as money there islittle. The reason for the accumulation there is this: The mints this
side the mountains could not do the needed coinage of gold, and coin
also the minimum amount of silver dollars required by the law. After
XII
REPORT OF THE SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY.
the silver dollars had been coined there, there was not good policy
In bringing them away, for there was no unsatisfied call for them on
this coast, and the expense of carriage is great, never less than one
per cent. Besides that, the vaults on this side are inconveniently taxed
in the storage of what is here. Indeed, the storage capacity of the
mints and other vault-room of the Government is everywhere severely
taxed. There were on hand in the sub-treasury on November 1, 1882,
$26,884,337.62 of fractional silver coin. In all, there were 2,400 tons
of silver coin stored in the public vaults. If the coinage of standard
silver dollars is kept up, and the demand for them for circulation is as
•dormant as now, it will be a serious question where the Treasury Department will find, in public receptacles, storage-room therefor.
Another reason for the coinage at San Francisco is, that allthe bullion for the monthly coinage required by law could not be bought on
this side of the mountains at the market rate as required by the law,
and that portion bought on the Pacific side Avas coined there because
it would cost so much, to bring it to this side for coinage, even if there
had been mint facilities therefor.
The amount of silver certificates outstanding November 1, 1881, was
about $66,000,000, and the amount outstanding November 1,1882, about
;$65,500,000. The Treasury holds nearly all the standard silver dollars
<ioined during the year ended November 1,1882. The aimount of silver
certificates outstanding has lessened during the same time. Judging
from past experience, we need not expect an increased demand for silver
dollars.
^
Inasmuch as by recent legislation the Secretary is required to issue
gold certificates, it is to be looked for that the place of the silver certificates AA^il be to a great extent supplied by gold certificates, as the
latter are furnished in convenient denominations; and it is just to supi)ose t h a t a certificate payable in a coin worth but eighty-eight per cent, of
its nominal value will be displaced by one worth fully its nominal value.
Is the idea vain that the continued coinage of silver dollars is not
now required for circulation of them, or as a basis for the issue of such
certificates, and that the policy of the Government, so far as it was
meant to increase the price of silver, has not been successful
As was stated in the report of last year, the act requiring the issue
of silver certificates^ making them receivable for customs and all public
dues, was a part of the policy of Congress to maintain the standard of
the silver dollar at or near that of the gold dollar.
The objections then urged to the issue of silver certificates, viz., that
they form an inexpedient addition to the paper currency; that they
REPORT OF THE SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY.
xm
are made a legahtender for the purposes named for more than their
real value; that there is no promise on the part ofthe Government topay the difference between their actual and nominal value; and t h e
embarrassments which arise from the endeavor to maintain several
standards of value, still have their force. .
There is just now a seemingly greater demand for silver dollars. I t
is only in seeming. The process is this: Gold is deposited in New Yorkc
For that, by arrangement, silver dollars are taken from the mint at
New Orleans. They are not put into circulation. They are deposited
at once in the sub-treasury there, and silver certificates taken to meet
immediate pressing needs for currency. As gold certificates are now
going into business hands in New Orleans, the process above stated'
will probably cease, as it is not looked for that silver certificates will
be sought rather than the gold certificates. That process keeps thesilver dollars out ofthe Treasury but a short time, and does not p u t
them into general circulation.
I refer for a more full discussion of this subject to my report of last
year, and repeat my recommendation that the provision for the coinage of a fixed amount of standard silver dollars each month be repealed and the Department be authorized to coin only so much as will
be necessary to supply the demand.
The recommendation is renewed for the repeal of the act requiring
the issue of silver certificates, and for a law authorizing measures for
their early retirement from circulation.
The international monetary conference met in April last, on the day
to which it had adjourned, and adjourned again sine die. I t is not
understood that it effected any important practical result.

REPORT OF THE SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY.
CONVERSION OF REFUNDING CERTIFICATES.
At the date of the last repprt refunding certificates issued under
the act of February 26, 1879, remained outstanding to the amount of
$589,050.
There have been presented during the year for conversion into four
per cent, bonds, certificates amounting to $17v4,300, leaving still unconverted $423,750.
In the language of the act, these certificates are ^ convertible at
^
any time, with accrued interest, into the four per cent, bonds described in the refunding act." Prior to May 1,1882, it had been the
practice of the Department to convert the principal only of the certificates into four per cent, bonds, paying the interest accrued on the
certificates in lawful money.
A holder of refunding certificates having made a demand upon the
Department to have the interest accrued on his certificates, as well as
the principal thereof, converted into four per cent, bonds, the question
was referred to the Department of Justice for examination. In the
opinion of the Attorney-General which was furnished this Department, the claim thus made was held to be justified by the language
of the act, and on conversions effected since May 1, four per cent,
bonds have been issued in satisfaction of the interest accrued on the
certificates, in lieu of the payment of lawful money, in all cases where
such interest amounted to a sum sufficient to entitle the holder to a
bond.
Up to November 1, 1882, $5,500 in four per cent, bonds have been
issued in this manner, making an increase to that extent of the amount
of such bonds outstanding, but not increasing the total debt.
CONTINUED TRUST-FUND BONDS.
I t was stated in the last report that $451,350 in bonds of the five
per cent, funded loan, held by the Secretary of the Treasury as a part
of the sinking-fund for the Pacific Eailroads, had been continued at
three and a half per cent., and that $52,000 in bonds of the same
loan, held in trust for the South Carolina school-fund, had also been
continued in preference to allowing the bonds to be redeemed and investing the proceeds in other bonds.
For the same reason the three and a half per cent, bonds have now
been exchanged into three per cent, bonds of the act of July 12, 1882.

R E P O R T OF T H E SECRETARY OF T H E
TREASURY.
The coinage of gold was nearly $11,000,000 more than that of any
previous year in the history of the mints. About one-half of this was
in eagles, one-third in half-eagles, and the rest in double-eagles.
The purchase of silver for coinage during the year was 23,627,229.37
ounces of standard silver, at a cost of $24,136,942.20, an average of
$1.02.15 per ounce standard. The average London price for silver was
51|f pence per ounce of British standard fineness, equivalent to $1.02.26
per ounce United States standard, and the average New York price
was $1.02,419 per ounce standard.
During the year, about $29,000 of punched and mutilated silver coins
A^ere purchased and melted for recoinage.
The silver coinage consisted of $27,772,075 in standard dollars, and.
$11,313.75 in fractional coin, a total of $27,783,388.75.
The profits on the silver coinage amount to $3,440,887.15, of which
$3,438,829.41 were from the coinage of the dollar, and $2,057.74 from
fractional coin.
When the financial report of this Department was made last year^
public queries were started Avhether the profits on coinage were truly
given. To satisfy myself and please a proper public scrutiny, I called
a fitting official person from the assistant treasurer's office at New
York, and charged him with a thorough investigation of the matter.
What he did appears in his i?eport appended hereto (Appendix, page
53). I think it is complete and satisfactory, and puts at rest any
doubt that the accounts have been accurately kept and truly reported o
.
During the year the mints distributed 15,747,463 standard silver
dollars, leaving in their vaults 35,365,072, from the coinage of this and
, former years.
Of the minor or base-metal coins, 46,865,725 pieces were struck, in
value $644,757,75. Of this, 4,400,775 pieces, in value $220,038.75, werefive-cent nickel coins, for. which the demand was large during the year.
The rest of it was principally of one-cent pieces.
' Besides the coinage, $37,505,120 worth of gold and $8,129,202 worth
of silver was made into bars.
Up to October 1, under the act of May 26, 1882, $6,588,000.06 in fine
gold bars fit for export were changed for gold coin at the New York
assay office, thus saving the expense of coinage.
The coin circulation of the country on July 1,1881, is estimated, from
the statistics of coinage and net imports of coin, to have been—

THE NATIONAL BANKS.
The affairs of the national banks during the current year are treated
of more fully in the report of the Comptroller of the Currency than
space Avill permit herein. It gives an abstract of their resources and
liabilities for each year since the national-bank system went inta
operation, together with statistical information for a series of years ^
drawn from official sources, of the affairs of private bankers, savingsbanks, and banking associations organized under State laws.
The number of national banks organized during the year is 171^
Avhich is the greatest number organized during any year since 1872.
The number of banks in operation is 2,269; more than at any previotFS
date. They are located in every State and organized Territory of the
Union. The returns made by them show* that on October 3d of the
present year they had as aggregate capital $483,104,213; as surplus,
$131,977,450; as individual deposits, $1,122,472,682; had made loans
in amount, $1,238,286,524; and held in specie, $102,857,778.
The number of banks whose corporate existence either has expired,
or would have expired if no action had been taken by their stockholders, is eighty-six. The stockholders of fifty-four of them, which
have been placed in voluntary liquida^tion or whose charters haA^e expired by limitation, have organized new banks in the same localit'os.
XI
XVIII
REPORT OF THE SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY
The stockholders of thirty banks have extended their existence under
the act passed at the last session of Congress. That act Avas well
adapted to the purpose intended.
The corporate existence of 305 other banks will expire before February 25, 1883. Nearly all of these have given notice of an intention
to seek an extended period of existence, under that act.
The report also tells the total amount of coin and currency in the
country, and the distribution of them in the Treasury, in the banks,
aind among the people. Since the day of resumption—the 1st day of
January, 1879—there has been anincrease, in gold coin of $288,795,330;
in silver coin of 105,750,532; and in national-bank notes of $38,936,073;
in aU, of $443,481,935.
The aggregate circulation of thenatlonal banks had steadily increased
for a series of years. The action of existing banks, in making deposit for the ultimate redemption of their circulating notes, lessened
for the year the amount of those notes for Avhich those banks are liable
by the sum of $5,478,854.
The national banks hold $220,000,000 of United States bonds which
are payable at the pleasure of the Government. .This is more than
one-half of the whole amount outstanding of this class of bonds. If
the public debt is to be paid as rapidly as it has been of late, it is
likely that all of these bonds will be paid during the next three
years. Whenever they are called for payment, the banks holding
them, to keep up the circulation of their notes, must either deposit
lawful inoney in the Treasury amounting ih the aggregate to at least
$200,000,000, or iDurchase and deposit there other United States bonds.
The cheapest of those bonds are at a high premium in the market.
It is estimated that the profit from the deposit of those bonds and
the taking and issuing the circulating notes furnished thereon, when
the lawful rate of interest is as high as six per cent., is not more
than three-fifths of one per cent. I t is supposed that this is not enough
to lead the banks to buy them largely, for the purpose of securing circulation.
" Is there not reason for forethought whether, with this embarrassment,
the bank circulation Avill not be so largely retired as to trouble the business community'?
Ways are suggested of forestalling a troublesome contraction of the
circulation—one, a reduction or abolition of the tax on circulation;
another, an increase of the rate of issue to ninety per cent, of the
current market value of the bonds; another, that the four and four

O
and a half per cent, bonds be refunded into three per cents upon terms
satisfactory to the holders, thus bringing into market a class of bonds
purchasable at a loAver rate; and another, that the Treasury Department be empowered to take, as a basis of circulation, the three-sixtyffve bonds of the District of Columbia.
The Comptroller giA^es statistics of the taxation of the national
banks, and again, recommends a repeal of the t^x upon capital and
deposits, in which recommendation the Secretary concurs. The capital invested in national banks is $462,341,601. The taxes assessed
upon them by the United States and the States for the year 1881 were
$17,189,080, being at the rate of 3.7 per cent. The amount assessed
by the United States is near one-half of the whole. A repeal of the
laws providing for it would still leave those banks liable to an assessment by the States of over eight millions of dollars per annum.
The Comptroller of the Currency has completed his annual tables,
showing the amounts of United States bonds held by the national banks,
State banks, savings-banks, and private bankers on the 1st of November, 1882. The national banks held on November 1, 1882, as security
for circulation and for public deposits and other purposes, $396,528,400
of interest-bearing bounds of the United States. This is nearly thirty
millions less than the amount held on November 1,1881, and about seven
millions less than for the corresponding date in 1880.
Banking associations other than national hold these bonds as folloAvs: State banks in twenty-one States, $8,739,172; trust companies in
five States, $16,934,812; savings-banks in fifteen States, $237,786,442—
total, $263,460,426.
There has been during the past year a decrease of about two millions
in the amount held by State banks and trust companies, and an increase
of nearly twenty-seven millions in the amounts held by savings banks.
The amounts held in geographical divisions by these associations
in 1882 were as follows: Eastern States, $42,667,248; Middle States,
$197,135,239; Southern States, $268,350; Western States, $3,369,414;
Pacific States, $20,020,175—total, $263,460,426.
These returns have been compiled from reports made to the officers
of the different States, which have been forwarded by them to the
Comptroller.
The interest-bearing funded debt of the United States was on November 1, $1,418,080,200. The total amount of bonds held by the
national banks. State banks, and savings-banks at the nearest corresponding date that could be ascertained was $659,988,826, which amount
is not greatly less than one-half of the whole interest-bearing debt.
XX
REPORT OF THE SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY.
Similar facts haA^'e also been compiled from the returns made by State
banks, savings-banks, and priA^ate bankers to the Treasury Department
for the purpose of taxation, showing that the banks and bankers of the
'country, exclusiA^e of the national banks, held an average ainount of
United States bonds during the six months ending May 31,1882, as follows: SaAdngs-banks, $242,028,782; State banks and trust comi)anies,
$23,211,430; private bankers, $14,870,745—total, $280,110,957.
The amount of bonds given in the returns to the Commissioner of
Internal Eevenue, which is the amount invested in United States bonds^
and may include the premium as well as principal of the bonds, is
$16,650,000 more than the amount obtained from the returns to State
officers. The difference is comparatively small, and the amounts obtained from the one source serve to corroborate the general accuracy
of the returns obtained from the other.
At the last session of Congress legislation Avas had to stop the OA^ercertification by national banks of c^hecks, in form draAvn upon them,
(See chapter 290 of 1882, section 13.) That act is an amendment of
section 5208 of the United States Eevised Statutes, which made it
penal to certify such a check unless the drawer then had on deposit with
the drawee money to the amount of it. Section 13, above cited, makes
it penal to resort to any device, or to receive any fictitious o|)ligation,
whereby to CA^ade the provisions of section 5208, above cited. Since the
passage of section 13, instead of the formal certification of checks, some
national banks have made a formal acceptance thereof. They claim that
this does not break the law, and plant upon section 5136 of United States
Eevised Statutes, wherein that section allows the making of contracts
and the use of powers incidental and necessary to the business of banking; and upon section 5209, United States EcAdsed Statutes, Avhich
makes it penal for a bank officer to accept without authority, whence,
it is claimed, the implication is, that with authority from t h e b a n k
directors it is lawful; and upon the absence from section 13 of an
express prohibition of making an acceptance. The question remains,
however, is the making of the acceptance a resort to a device, or the
receiving of a'fictitious obligation, in order to evade the provisions of
section 5208 * For it is understood at this Department that these
?
acceptances are not always made upon an amount of money actuall}^ on
deposit with the acceptor equal to that of the check. Judging that
Congress was earnestly trying to stop a practice which it deemed
fraught with evil, I believed it well to concur with the Comptroller of
the Currency in submitting the matter to th6 Department of Justice,
for the official opinion ofthe Attorney-General, whether a national bank
REPORT OF THE SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY.
XXI
might lawfully make such acceptances; and, as the amount of them is
supposed to be large, whether, if the bank might lawfully make them,
it should be held, in so doing, within the bounds of section 5200, Eevised
Statutes United States, to the one-tenth of its paid-up capital; and, if
it might be so held, whether that limit applied to the gross amount of
the acceptances or to a single acceptance'? (See section 5202, United
States EcAised Statutes.) The Department of Justice has made reply to
the communication of this Department. The opinion of the AttorneyGeneral is that to write the word "accepted'' across a check is to the
same effect as to write the word "good" there; and that, though one
m a y b e called a "certification" and the other an "acceptance," they
mean the same thing, and are like acts; that when the draAver has not
with the drawee the funds with which the check may be at once paid,
the writing of one word, just as much as the writing of the other, is
for the same forbidden purpose—to produce the same forbidden result;
that, inasmuch as the liability is the same whether the check be marked
Avith the one word or the other, either mark, if incurring that liability^
would seem to be sufficient to bring the case within the prohibition
[referred to. It remains to be seen whether the banks which have
indulged in this practice will cease therefrom on knowledge of this
opinion, or whether the Comptroller of the Currency, or the law officers
of the Government, must enforce the pains and penalties incurred by
violation of the law.
^
PUBLIC MONEYS.
The monetary transactions of the Government have been conducted
through the offices of the United States Treasurer, nine assistant
treasurers, and one hundred and thirty-five national-bank depositaries.
The gross receipts of the Government, amounting during the fiscal
year, as shown by warrants, to $524,470,974.28, were deposited as follows :
In independent-treasury offices
,
$382, 680,906 77
In national-bank depositaries
: . . 141, 790,067 51
The quarterly examinations of independent-treasury offices, required
by law, have been made, and those offices have, besides, been subjected to special examinations by officers of this Department. As far
a;S known, there has been no loss to the Government from public officers
engaged either in the receipt, the safe-keeping, or the disbursement of
the public moneys. I have seen some instances of misdealing with
them, but as yet without ultimate public loss.

CUSTOMS.
The revenue from customs for the last fiscal year was $220,410,730.25^
an increase of $22,251,054.23 OA^er that of the preceding year; an
increase in the value of dutiable imports of $73,887,486, and in that of
free goods of $8,087,460. There was collected at the port of New
Tork the sum of $152,773,962.32; at aU other ports, $68,300,698.03.
The sum of $49,198,312 Avas collected on sugar, melado, and molasses^.
$29,253,016 on wool and its manufactures; $24,175,547 on iron and

I also ask the attention of Congress to, the classification of sugar, as I
know not whether it will be treated of, or, if it is, how it will be treated
of in any other document brought to the attention of Congress; and
the subject is one of practical importance.
The Dutch standard of color is no longer a practical test of the saccharine strength of imported sugars, or of their A-alue for refining. The
Supreme Court, in a recent decision, has interpreted the existing law
to be, that customs officers may not look beyond the apparent color,, and
must classify the invoices thereby, though satisfied that the color is artificial and made to get a lower rate of duty. That standard was adopted,,
doubtless, belicAang that color shoAved value. The intention Avas to>
put upon sugar, duties in effect ad valorem. As it has come about, however, the grades of sugar highest in value, when thus artificially colored,,
come in at the lowest rate of duty. The purpose of Congress in adopting the Dutch standard is measurably defeated. Provision should be
made for just classification. This may be done by putting on an ad
valorem duty, by a specific duty, or by authorizing some standard other
than that of apparent color. Now, domestic producers do not get the

incidental protection meant to be given them. Importers, too, are
subject to embarrassment in fixing the rate of duty on their goods, and
otherwise.
The importance of a ncAv tribunal for the trial of customs cases, or of
the transfer of them to an existing tribunal, is again presented to Congress. The bill now pending givesJiMisdiction over them to the Court
of Claims. . It seems to this Department that this is a method economical
and speedy, and hence good for the disposal of these cases. I t Avould
relieve the Department of business Avhich it is not fully organized to
entertain and properly act upon.
The recommendation of last year is repeated, that the Secretary be
authorized to refer to the Court of Claims, in his discretion, any disputed
claims against the Government involving important questions of law
or fact. This would giA^e to claimants and to the Government a proper
judicial trial and judgment, and Avard off* the requests for re-examinations which are now urged upon every change of principal officers of
Departments.
I t is also recommended that there be authorized the appointraent of
three additional general appraisers. The necessity for this addition
has long been felt, the interests of the GoA^ernment having suffered in
some sections for the lack of a proper tribunal to determine disputes.

REPORT OF THE SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY.
\
REDUCTION OF TAXATION.
The Treasury Department was created by act of Congress, chapter
xii, of the year 1789. By the second section it was made the duty
of the Secretary " to digest and prepare plans for the improvement
of the reveaue." The word improvement meant enlargement. The
need was for more rcA^enue, and the lack was of subjects from which
it might be taken. In that sense that duty is now without care. The
times have changed. What now perplexes the Secretary is not wherefrom he may get revenue and enough for the pressing needs of the
Government, but whereby he shall turn back into the flow of business
the more than enough for those needs that has been dravfn from the
people.
There are now in theTreasury unused assets to a large amount, and
the daily receipts into the Treasury from customs and internal-revenue
taxation are about a million and a quarter.
It is plain from this, and the staitement with which this report begins of the estimated expenditures for the next fiscal year, that the
receipts fro^ revenue are, and are likely to be, in excess of the needs
of the Government.
From the inequality between daily large receipts aud comparatively
small daily disbursements there comes an evil effect upon the business
of the country. The collections by GoA^ernment are taken out of the
money market in sums and at dates which have little or no agreement
with the natural movement of money, and are returned to it with the
wsame inadaptation to commercial or financial requirements. Occasionally the large disbursements of the Government have created a
plethora of money; more frequently its large and continued withdrawals
of money have caused such a scarcity oi floating capital as to check
the proper movement of legitimate business. It is not only that the
amount in the Treasury is so much kept from the use of community;
the fact becomes an incentive and an aid to men who for their own ends
conspire to keep from that use other large sums. We have believed
that the laws of the States against primogeniture, the entail of estates, and the accumulation of personal property, stood in the way of
heaping up wealth in single hands, and gathering in single hands the
powder over others that great wealth gives. But so it is, that to-day
there are men so rich that by conspiring together, they can at will put
and hold hand on near as much money as Government can^ay hand to,
save by the use of its credit. The power thus had is used from time
fco time. It results, that violent and sudden contractions and expansions

affliet the business community, and the Government is an unwilling
aider and abettor therein. I t has come about that the Treasury Department is looked to as a great, if not a chief cause of recurring stringencies, and the Treasury is called to for relief. Every Secretary of
the Treasury for years past, has had it brought clearly to his mind, and
' official expedients have been used to remedy the evil. Little of lasting A-alue has been accomplished thereby.
There is no adAdsable and lawful mode of disbursing an existing excess
of assets but that of the payment of the public debt. That debt is
substantially of two principal classes—that paj^able at the pleasure of
the Government, that payable at a fixed date in the future. The
former is also of two kinds—that bearing interest at three and a half
per cent., and that at three per cent. The latter may not be called in
for payment while any of the former is outstanding and uncalled. So
is the law of its creation. Of the former there are outstanding and uncalled over seventy millions. The interpretation put by the Department
upon the various laws out of which that debt has arisen, requires that a
call for it for payment must fix for the maturity and for the cessation
of interest a date three months off'. This,somewhat hampers the Department in so making calls as to keep up a timely succession. For caUs ^
a t three months off there must either be the funds in hand therefor at
the time when the call is made, or there must be a reliance upon the
probable prospective receipts. To wait before making a call until the
funds are in fact in hand would be to increase the evil of which I am speaking. To call in reliance upon receipts to come needs caution, lest by
changes in business currents or business prosperity they may be Ies- •
sened, and thus embarrassment ensue; so that, practically, the Department cannot with prudence work in this matter up to Avhat may turn out
to be its full ability. Whether the three per cent, bonds will require the
same length of call-time has not yet been determined. Nor is a call alAvays effectual in bringing in the debt for payment. The monthly statements of the public debt show that of matured obligations on which
interest has-ceased there are outstanding over elcA^en millions and a half,
some of it from the year 1837. Doubtless some of this has been lost
or destroyed, and will never be brought for payment. But bonds which
are in late calls come in slowly. Thus, of the calls preceding the last,
all of AYhich haA^e been some days payable at option of holders without rebate of interest, and Avhicli were, in all, for $55,000,000, there
. is outstanding $35,000,000 and OA^er.
Bonds ofthe other principal class are of several kinds, all payable at
a future date, and all are now at a high premium in the market. If it
XXVI
REPORT OF THE SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY.
were good policy for the Department to buy these at their premium, it
could by so doing easily free the Treasury from its excess of assets.
Yarious causes put these premiums, at a height almost unexampled. It is true that capitalists may buy them now, and they will, if
the present state of things continues, by the time they fall due and
payable, and are paid to them at their face, haA^e realized some interest upon the purchase price. A t the present premium on most if not
on all of them that will be short of three per cent. Calculations show
that at these premiums a purchase will not have yielded at the end of
their term three per cent, on the money paid for them. The Government by the purchase of them might in effect take an equal profit.
But it can save to itself three and a half per cent, by calling bonds of
that class. Hence, I do not perceive how a Secretary could justify himself to the country at large, in paying the GoA^ernment debt at rulings
premiums, when there is no requirement of law to be ansAvered, and no
convenience or pressing need of the Government to be met; unless
there is a great emergency, and general financial disaster is threatened,,
which only extreme measures of Governmental interference can turn
aside. I t is true that this Department has heretofore, and as late as
March 30, 1881, purchased bonds and paid for them the face A-alue
and a premium thereon.. The purchases on.that day were over fiA^e
millions and a quarter of dollars, and the premium paid near fif ty-fi A^e
thousand dollars. But the purchase was for the sinking-fund, and the
law of that fund required a purchase, and there were no Government
bonds redeemable at pleasure to the payment of which an excess of
assets might be applied. In former years there were large and continued purchases of bonds at a premium, but they went hand in hand
with sales of gold at a greater premium, and the Government made a.
profit by the transaction, and then, too, was for a time the requirement
ofthe sinking-fund, and there Avereno bonds paymentof which might be
made in invitum.
The anticipation of payment of called bonds Avithout a rebate of tbe
interest up to the day named in the call rests upon a different basis.
A prepa^^ment of interest upon the public debt is sanctioned by express
provision of laAv. (See resolution No. 25, of March, 1864, and U. S.
Eev. Stats., 3699.) A reference to the debates in Congress when that
resolution was under discussion, shows that the motiA^e forthe adoption of it was, that the Treasury Department might at any time break
a tightness in the money market by putting out money idle in its vaults.
The power thus given has pf late been used for that purpose. Thoiigb
this does give a gain to the holders of the bonds, it puts no loss upoB
REPORT OF THE SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY. XXVII
the Government. The Treasury uses for the prepayment, money t h a t
it needs not for use in other ways, and which yields no interest, and
which it must at last use for paying just what it pays in advance, and
to no more than the amonnt that it must at last pay. In paying a high
premium, however, it pays what it is not bound ever to pay, and it is.
not a certain event that it will ever make itself whole again, and to>
the extent of some part of the premium, it extinguishes no debt.
It is doubtless good policy to extinguish the long bonds of the Government, rather than those payable at its pleasure; for the time is a t
hand when, with the present rate of receipts and the present rate of
payment of the public debt, all the bonds subject to optional time of
payment Avill have been called in. Then, if there be a surplus in t h e
Treasury, there will be no outlet for it °save by purchase at large premium of long bonds, or the disbursement of it through appropriations,
for purposes beyond the ordinary and economical needs of the Government. It is, therefore, for Congress to consider the proprietj^^ of empowering this Department to buy the long bonds at a high premium. I f
it shall deem it politic to make general purchases of bonds at such premium for extinguishment, it should by laAv give to this Department
express authority so to do, and thus adopt that policy.
There have been other suggestions of modes of freeing the Treasury^
of an excess of assets. The national-bank act, section 35, (U. S. Eevised Statutes, sec. 5133,) provides for the designation of national
banks as depositaries of public moneys, security being taken in a corresponding deposit of United States bonds. All moneys received for
customs must be paid into the Treasury, and no part of them can b e
placed in national bank depositaries. It is seen that if they, or a^y
part of them, were deposited with national-bank depositaries, they
would soon find their way back into the currents of business in loansand discounts, as do now the receipts from internal-revenue taxation.
There are in the Treasury over fifty millions of dollars, being the
five per cent, fund for the redemption of nation al-bank notes, and t h e
fund for the redemption of notes of national banks that have failedo.
These funds haA^e not been treated by the Department, as " public
moneys" within the intent of thfe sections aboA^e cited, and have been
kept in the Treasury. If Congress should give an interpretation to^the words "public moneys" which would take in these funds, and they
be put on deposit with the publib depositaries, the same results Avould
follow as are above suggested as to customs receipts.
I t is argued by those who contend for larger use of the banks as depositaries that all other civilized countries have an advantage over
XXVIII
REPORT OF THE SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY.
t h e United States in the relations between their treasuries and the
money market; that their governments keep their accounts with the
strongest banks in the country, and in this naturalway of transacting
business they do not deprive their trade of the natural and necessary
serA^ices of floating capital; that it is only in the United States that
the GoA^ernment, chiefly by law and partly for Avant of the use of existing discretionary powers, deliberately disturbs the natural currents of
mone}^, inflicting upon trade a prolonged or spasmodic stringency by
ilocking up its receipts, or stimulating speculation by a sudden outpouring of its hoard; that all business is taxed by this system of legal
^caprice, and that it is probably no exaggeration to say that our Treasury statutes cause discounts in New (York City to average two per cent,
^higher than under the more natural system of employing the ordinary
•business agencies for the Government's collections and disbursements.
I do not yield to this reasoning to the fall extent that it is sought
t o push it. It may be well to giA^e the Department the power to make
larger deposits in the public depositaries. I conceive that the receipts
from customs, now to great extent pledged by law to the payment of the
•bonded creditor, should be - held in the Treasury; for in another course
there are disadvantages that might come to both Government and people,
vand which would, if they came, outweigh all advantages to either. I t
is safe to say that the country is never so sure of a continued course
of prosperity as that prudent forecast will not take heed .of possible
financial disturbance and disaster. If such should come, in such magnitud^ie as that the national-bank depositaries should be involved in
^common with all, it would be of the greatest good that the GoA^ernment had in its own hands the means to meet the daily calls upon it.
I t has chanced that, singly, national-bank depositaries have failed to
meet the drafts of the Government upon them, to its embarrassment.
^Greatly more so Avould it be if all or many should so fail together,
^nd together should have in keeping, in main, the assets of the Government. The policy of the Department has been to keep for the redemption of the United States notes a reserve of about forty per cent, of the
:;amount of them outstanding, and, besides that, to hold inoney enough
to meet all other obligations payable on demand. I t is a part of that
policy that the Treasury should itself hold that reserA^e. "You must
be ready for the evil day, and, being ready for the CAdl day, the evil
day almost never comes; not being ready for the evil day, it is certain to
•come." For these reasons I would not seek a release of the Treasury
from this complication, in these modes.
The radical cure for the evil is in the reduction of taxation, so that

no more will be taken from the people than enough to carry on the
Government with economy; to meet all its obligations that must be
met from year to year; to pay off' with reasonable celerity the part of
the debt which it may pay at pleasure, and to provide through the
sinking-fund for the payment of that which will become payable by
and by. The evil comes from the likelihood of the GoA^ernment holding from time to time a large surplus to be poured out in volume a t
uncertain and unforeseen times, and at times often inopportune for
the business of the country. There could not be that surplus, surely
not so great a one, if the subjects of taxation were lessened and the
rates made smaller upon those retained.
The figures are given aboA'-e which show an estimated surplus of
public moneys for the fiscal year ending June 30,1883, upon the basis,
of existing laws and including the sinking-fund, of $75,577,043.75.
Unless some disturbing cause comes in, not now foreseen, that sur^
plus will increase from year to year as the interest on the pubhc debt
decreases. For without such cause the revenues from all sources will;
not be diminished if the laws productive thereof remain unchanged.
As so great an annual surplus is the direct result of the existing revenue
laws, what will be the financial condition of the country if these laws
remain unchanged and taxation be not reduced?
In connection herewith, should be borne in mind the increasing expenditure fpr pensions, as likely to aff'ect in some degree the increase
ofsuri)lus.
The Commissioner of Pensions has furnished to this Department aib
estimate based upon facts on his records which gives these figures:

Of the number pending, 197,623 are entitled to "arrears," and the

would not fall below $200,000,000.
The remaining 72,055 were filed subsequent to June 30, 1880, and
pension, when allowed, would commence from date of filing.
Last year he estimated that the average value on the 1st day of
January, 1884, of each claim allowed out of the class in which are the
197,623 above, would be $1,350, and he then reckoned that about fivesixths of that class would be found valid claims and would be allowed..

The amount of the funded debt redeemable a t a n y time before September 1, 1891, which will remain unpaid on the 30th of June, 1883,
is about $300,000,000, and upon the foregoing estimates for the
fiscal year ending June 30, 1883, the whole funded debt now redeema.ble could be paid before June 30, 1886. This would leave as the surplus for more than five years the amount of $600,000,000, undisposed
of in the Treasury, unless, yielding to the temptatiooi of seeming
wealth, expenditures be largely increased. The amount of the loan
redeemable in 1891 is only $250,000,000, and, as has been stated, no
other loan becomes redeemable until 1907, so that the surplus under
the conditions supposed will rapidly increase until that date. The
amount of the loan of 1907, as already appears, is less than $740,000,000,
so that, were it all redeemable, the whole public debt could be paid
from a surplus as great as estimated early in the fiscal year ending
J u n e 30, 1894.
I t has not often occurred in public financial history that embarrassment has arisen through superabundance of revenues. The condition
of the country in that respect, while it illustrates its almost boundless
resources, and establishes its credit beyond a question, presents difficulties of grave character.
The accumulation in the Treasury of a large surplus, which must occur
unless immediate measures are enacted for a reduction of the revenues,
is not to be placidly contemplated, and the question confronts us, in
A^hat manner may it best be prevented'?
The suggestion that the Government m^ij go into the market and
ptirchase its bonds not yet redeemable at the market rates is noted
in another place. As a temporary expedient, or for a relatively small
amount, this policy might be adopted. But were it established by law
as a permanent policy, the long bonds, now at a high premium, would
REPORT OF THE SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY.
XXXI
be so enhanced in price as to render the purchase of bonds impracticable within reasonable bounds.
A greater use of the national banks as depositaries is treated of
elsewhere herein. If that should be made, it would be but a return to
the channels of business of moneys taken from them without need,
and with the charge upon the people of the cost of collecting.
I respectfully refer to, my last report for my views upon this subJect. They have not materially changed. Now, as then, it is recom
mended to retain a t a x on spirits, tobacco, and fermented liquors, as
legitimate subjects of needful taxation. They are, in the main, the
means of indulgence, and shauld come before necessaries as subjects of
taxation. The tax from spirits for the last year was $69,873,408.18;
that from tobacco, $47,391,988.91; that from fermented liquors,
$16,153,920.42. The increase over the year 1881 was, on spirits,
$2,719,433.30; on tobacco, $4^536,997.60; on fermented liquors,
$2,453,679.21. The total receipts from the taxation of these articles
was for the last year about one hundred and thirty-three millions of
dollars. The estimated expenditures for this fiscal year are near three
hundred millions. The retention of this tax will still leave a large sum
to be raised from, other sources, so that there is not a pressing need of
a reduction here. Should it, however, be deemed expedient to reduce
the rate of duties on either of these articles, to obviate the inducement
to fraud, or to render such duties more equal, objection is not so
strongly urged against a moderate modification as against a total
repeal of all taxes thereon. Propositions haA^e recently been made to
abolish the whole system of internal revenue, but neither public sentiment nor political action indicates a desire on the part of tax-paying
citizens to strike out this class of taxes. All the other subjects of internal
revenue may be released from taxation, unless bank circulation be retained. It is a franchise, a privilege to furnish that, and it is of profit
to the banks and of expense to the Government, and hence is a preferable subject of taxation. The amount derived from it was $3,190,981.98
the last year, yet as the banks are liable to assessment by the States,
and thus to bear a share of public burdens, it is advisable to strike off'
the Federal taxation on their circulation.

June 30, 1882, besides those from spirits, fermented
liquors, and tobacco, is

Deduct this amount from our surplus revenues, and we have still a
surplus of about $98,000,000.
To complete an eff'ectual reduction of taxation, it must be made on
some principal source of revenue, and such an one is the duties on
imports collected under the tariff laws, and an additional obAdousmethod of aA^oiding a surplus in the Treasury is a reduction of t h e
revenues from those.
The subject of the repeal of the tax on circulation and deposits of
national banks, and those upon adhesive stamps, and those derived
from banks and bankers, has been much discussed in Congress. Tt
Avill be seen, however, that the repeal of <3all these taxes would relieve
but a portion of the difficultj^
The revenues from customs for the current year are estimated at
$235,000,000, and under existing laws, and without a disturbing cause
now unforeseen, we may expect t h a t they will not diminish in futureyears. It seems, therefore, that a reduction should be made in the
revenue from the customs.
In reading the testimony before the Tariff' Commission it is to be observed that with scarcely an exception the representative of every industry,while conceding that a general reduction of the tariff is proper
and necessary, has claimed that its peculiar product can submit to no
reduction of the protection now afforded.
While the views of the manufacturers are to be weighed, it is manifest that they will never be able to agree upon a reduction of the tariff"'
duties.
All agree that a revision of the tariff* is necessary. The action of
Congress in creating a Commission for that purpose renders discussion on that point unnecessary. The action of that commission in
detail is not yet known to this Department. WhatCA^er may be its^
recommendations, they Avill no doubt receive respectful consideration.
The Secretary of the Treasury, however, cannot feel that he is relieved of responsibility because of that Commission. He deems it
proper, therefore, to make some recommendations upon the subject.
The whole amount of revenue from customs for the fiscal year
ended June 30, 1882, has already been stated at something more than
$220,000,000. The classes of merchandise paying the largest amount
of duties from customs are thefollowing, i n t h e order named: Sugar
and molasses, wool and manufactures from it, iron and steel and the
manufactures from them, manufactures of silk, manufactures of cotton,
amounting to about one hundred and thirt^^-seven and a half millions.
A substantial reduction upon each of the class of articles named is
REPORT OF THE SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY.
XXXIII
recommended. And it is belicA'cd that the time has arrived when a
reduction of duties on nearly all the articles in our tariff is demanded
and is feasible.
In addition to this, a careful revision of the tariff should be made
with a view to placing upon the free list many articles now paying a
duty.
It appears that the largest amount derived from any class of products, under the customs tariff, is that from sugar.
Sugar is a necessary of life for all classes in this country. The
average duty on it is equal to two and a half cents per pound, and
to nearly fifty-three and a half per cent, ad valorem. The amount
of cane-s^gar produced in this country is estimated at eleven per cent,
of the whole quantity consumed, and it is apparent that nearly the
whol'fe amount of revenue from this source is paid by the consumer, the
competition by home production not being sufficient seriously to affect
the price. The progress of industry in the production of sugar from
sorghum and the beet is not forgotten. I t is entitled to consideration.
I t is believed, however, that a substantial reduction of the duty upon
sugar may be made Avithout injustice to the producers of it in this
country.
Upon wool and iron and steel, and their manufactures, a large re^
duction must be made to materially lessen the revenues derived from
them, as the amount of imports Avill increase as the duties are lessened.
I t will probabl^^ be found that in general the reduction can chiefly
be made on the raw material or coarser manufactures, rather than
those upon which a greater amount of labor has been bestowed. The
duties on manufactures of silk, it is believed, may be reduced without
^injustice to manufacturers in this country.
..
. .
The cotton tariff' is found to be comi)lex and inconsistent, and it is
no doubt true that in most of the coarser classes of cotton fabrics our
manufacturers can compete with the world without protection.
Wines and spirits, which afford the largest amount of duty next to
the five classes enumerated, being articles of luxury, may well bear
any rate of duty deemed necessary for the revenue.
Without going further into details, the Secretary earnestly recom
mends a careful revision of the tariff^ Avith a view to substantial reductions.
The accomplishment of this is recommended to the present Congress,
which ha:.s been fully aware of the approaching financial situation, as
it is now presented, and has fully discussed the subject in some of its
bearings,

REPORT OF THE SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY.
XXXT
There has been an increase in the principal crops of the country in
1882 over those of 1881. Over 75 per cent, ofthe exports of domestic
merchandise is in products of agriculture.
I t is reasonable to expect
.an increase in the exports of merchandise and an increase in the baL
ance of trade in our favor. This expectation appears also to be justified by the fact that the exports of breadstuff's for the first four months
of the current fiscal year at the principal ports, exceeded such exports
for the corresponding months of the preceding fiscal year by $4,570,084,
The exports of petroleum for the fiscal year just closed exceeded those
for the preceding fiscal year by $10,917,097.
IMPORTS OF MERCHANDISE.
The imports of merchandise for the last fiscal year exceeded those
of the preceding year by $81,974,946:

During the fiscal year ended June 30,1882, the exports of specie were
$49,417,479, and the imports $42,472,390—a diff'erence of $6,945,089.
In the preceding fiscal year there was an excess of imports over exports of $91,168,650. This change came, probably, from the falling
off in exports of merchandise for the year.
The report of the Bureau of Statistics shows, in detail, the state of
the foreign commerce of the United States.
COMMERCE AND NAVIGATION.
The tonnage of vessels owned in the United States at the close of
the fiscal year 1882, by the records of the Register of the Treasury,
was 4,165,933 tons. Of this, 1,292,294 tons Avere in 2,185 vessels registered for the foreign trade, and 2,873,639 in 22,183 vessels enrolled and
licensed for the coasting trade and fisheries. There was a decrease of
43,292 tons in vessels iu the foreign trade, and an increase of 151,491
tons in those in the domestic trade. The increase in the tonnage of
this class of vessels for the fiscal year ended June 30,1881, was but
6,924 tons.

The number of documented vessels of all classes built during the
past fiscal year exceeds that of the fiscal year ended in 1881 by 263.
The undocumented vessels built during the past year, such as canalboats and barges, may fairly be presumed to have been much larger.
Tke total tonnage of vessels entered from foreign countries was
15,630,541 tons during 1881, and 14,656,499 tons during the year
ended June 30, 1882—a decrease of 974,042 tons. The American tonnage entered in the foreign trade was increased 49,141 tons, and the
foreign tonnabge was decreased 1,023,183 tons. This tonnage is com^puted from the number of entries of vessels, and not on the number
of vessels, and is limited to the seaboard ports.
Of the merchandise brought in at seaboard, lake, and riA^er ports
during the fiscal year 1882, $130,266,826 Avere imported in American
vessels, and $571,517,802 in foreign. Of the exports of merchandise,
$96,962,919 were shipped in American, and $641,460,967 in foreign vessels. Of the combined imports and exports of merchandise, 16 per
eent. only was conveyed in American vessels.
EXPORTS AND IMPORTS AND QUARANTINE OF NEAT-CATTLE.
Legislation on these subjects has tAvo objects: First. The extinctioB
and prevention in the United States of the disease known as pleuropneumonia, or lung plague. Second. Theincrease of our commerce in
neat-cattle with other nations, especially Great Britain.
The disease did not begin in this country, the first cases having been
traced to foreign origin. It is found on the Atlantic coast in scA^eral
places from IsTew York to Baltimore, but has not been felt in l^ew Bngiand
for many years. I t is a contagious disease, of mahgnant type, hkely to
spread through herds, and from herd to herd. Mindful that the number
of neat-cattle in the United States in 1880 was about 36,000,000, which,
at $25 per head, would be valued at $900,000,000, and that there has
probably been increase rather than decrease, it is seen that this is a
matter of moment. The spread of the disease on the Atlantic coast
REPORT OF THE SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY, XXXVII
alone would make serious loss, though it is more readily controlled
where cattle are penned or housed. The starting and spread of it in
the great open cattle ranches of the West would be calamitous. Its
contagious character, and the difficulty of treating it in large herds
roaming at will, make it formidable. Should it get a firm hold there, it
would badly hinder the raising and sale of cattle, which is a means of
wealth and prosperity to many of our people.
To prevent it being brought from abroad, the Department, in July,
1879, established regulations subjecting all imported cattle to a quarantine of ninety days. As there was no appropriation therefor until
the last session of Congress, importers were obliged to quarantine their
cattle at their own expense; and as the Dominion of Canada, under like
provisionsfor quarantining imported.cattle,made liberal provision therefor, most of the cattle imported into the United States were brought
from abroad first into Canadian ports.
Using an appropriation ofthe last session, this Department, through
the Treasury Cattle-Commission, has taken active measures for establishing for imported cattle quarantine stations and shelter at Portland,
(Me.,) Boston, Kew York, Philadelphia, and Baltimore. The design is
to furnish buildings with sufficient land, so arranged that the cattle
in quarantine may be isolated, not only from cattle already in the country, but each importation from others, and be kept constantly under the
inspection of Government officers. I t i s expected that these arrange
ments will be completed at the ports named within a few weeks.
The second object in view is to promote the trade in neat-cattle with
foreign nations, especially with Great Britain.
The number of live cattle exported, chiefly to Great Britain, in the
year ended June 30, 1881, was 185,707, valued at $14,304,103. For the
year ended June 30, 1882, the number was 108,110, a decrease of 77,597,
and in value of $6,503,876. The decrease was, hoAvever, no greater in
proportion than that generally in the exportation of articles of food.
By an order of the Privy Council of Great Britain of February, 1879,
all cattle imported from the United States must be slaughtered at the
port of arrival within ten days. This order, deemed necessary to prevent infection, will, no doubt, be rescinded, whenever the United States
shall adopt measures rendering it reasonably certain that importations
of cattle from this country will not introduce the disease from which
the people of Great Britain haA^e heretofore suff'ered loss.
This order causes great loss on cattle exported to Great Britain from
this country, as only animals fit for beef can UOAV be exported, and the
shrinkage in them on immediate slaughter, after the waste of a sea
voyage, Avithout recuperation, is estimated at not less than ten per centi
XXXVIII
R E P O R T O F T H E SECRETARY OF T H E TREASURY.
There is a great demand in England for stock cattle, to be fed
and fattened on English soil, which we could readily supply, were i t
not for the order referred to. Under a recent appropriation, this Department, through the Cattle Commission, is arranging with the various
railroad companies for the transportation of cattle from the Westem
States to the seaboard so as to save them from contagion on the route^
When these arrangements are perfected and found efficient, we may
fairly ask of Great Britian that the order for immediate slaughter of
American cattle imported into that country be rescinded.
The report of tEe Commission speaks in detail on this subject.
REVENUE MARINE.
There are now thirty-seven vessels in the Eevenue-Marine Service,
thirty-two of which are steamers, andfiA^esail-vessels. They are manned
by 199 officers and 774 men.

aAvay the officers and crew of the naval relief and exploring steamer;^
Rodgers, burned at that place. The Corwin made a second cruise toour most northern waters, to protect the seal-fisheries and other Government interests in Alaska. She ascertained the fate of Master Putnam, of the U. S. Navy, who was carried to sea upon an ice floe and
perished. She cruised two hundred miles to the eastward of the signal
station, at Point Barrow, finding no open violations of law. Coming,
back by the Aleutian Islands and Sitka, her commander. Lieutenant
Healy, in November, quelled an outbreak of the Indians upon the mainland north of the latter place.
The revenue-steamer McLane, at Galveston, Tex., co-operated witli
the Marine-Hospital SerAdce in confining and alleviating the yellow-fever
epidemic, carrying physicians, nurses, medicines, and supplies.
The revenue-cutters have also co-operated with the Life-Saving Service and the Light-House Establishment.
The expense of maintaining the Revenue Marine for the fiscal year
ended 30th of June last Avas $846,423.34.
REPORT OF THE SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY. XXXIX
The new vessel for duty on the southern coast, authorized by Congress in 1880, has been completed and placed on duty, and named
"Walter Forward." The appropriation of $75,000, made at the last
session, has, under the authority of the law, been applied to the rebuilding of the revenue-steamer ^' Commodore Perry.''
The recommendation made last year, of a new vessel for the southern coast, to replace one worn-out and not adapted for the service, is
rencAved. The amount of $75,000, necessary for this purpose, has been
included in the estimates.
The recommendation of the last annual report and of those of several
of my predecessors in office, that Congress provide for the establishment
a retired list and the extension of the pension laws to the Eevenue
Marine, is rencAved.
LIFE-SAVING- SERVICE.
The operations of this useful service have been continued with success.
There were at the close of the fiscal year 190 stations in commission.
The whole number of disasters to documented vessels, reported by the
distriat officers to have occurred within the field of station operations,
is 286. The number of persons on board of these vessels was 2,268,
Of this number, 2,256 were saved, and 12 only lost. There were
succored at the stations 450 shipwrecked persons, 1,344 days' relief in
the aggregate being afforded them. The estimated value of property
involved in these disasters was $4,757,892, of which $3,099,537 was
saved and $1,658,355 lost. The number of vessels totally lost was 67.
There have also been fifty-six instances of disaster to smaller craft,
a s sail-boats, row-boats, &c., on which were 126 persons, all of whom
were saved. The property involved in these disasters was $7,850, of
which $6,450 was saved and $1,400 lost. The aggregate is this:

held upon each case, to haA^e been beyond human aid. The loss of life is
XL
REPORT OF THE SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY.
smaller than that of any preceding year, with one exception, although
there were forty-tAvo more disasters than in any 3^ear before since the
organization of the service. When the number of disasters is considered, and it is remembered that the life-saving stations are located, by
selection, at the most fatal points of our dangerous coast, the small loss
of life and property is remarkable, and speaks well for the efficiency of
the serAdce. I t is claimed that the loss of life from marine disaster,
upon our coasts, since the general extension of the service thereon, in
1876, has been reduced nearly 75 per cent.; that while in 1876, and
before that, one person out of twentj^-nine on board wrecked vessels
was lost, there has been a constant decrease, until the loss is but one
out of every onehundred and thirteen; and this result is almost entirely
attributable to the Life-Saving Service.
The service has never been in so good condition as at present. The
legislation of the last session of Congress has supplied its main wants,
and established the conditions for high utility, in its prime object of
saving life and its secondary ones of protecting commerce and aiding
the collection of the revenue. This legislation has already had a
marked eff'ect upon the status of the establishment, and particularly
upon its morale. The provision for the ampler pay of the employes,
and for aid to those among them Avho may be disabled in the line
of duty, or, in case of .fatality, to their widows and orphans, makes
them feel that their services are appreciated, and insures cheerful zeal
and fidelity in doing duty. I t enables the Department to obtain, in
instances, better men than before. The crews are now of good capacity
and character. I t is a rule, in forming the crews, that regard be had for
qualification, to the exclusion of political or other considerations.
Faithful adherence to this rule is a condition of the success of this
service.
Owing to the late date atwhich the. appropriations passed Congress,
not much has been done in establishing the new stations authorized by
the act referred to. One has been built at Peaked Hill Bar, Cape Cod;
and one at Muskeget Island, on the coast of Massachusetts, is nearing
completion. Three are in process of construction on the coast of North
Carolina. Sites have been selected for others, and in some instances
the titles secured.
THE LIGHT-HOUSE ESTABLISHMENT.
During the fiscal year tbe Light-House Establishment has put into
operation eighteen new light-stations, eighty new river lights, ^ve new
fog-signals operated by steam or hot air, three new automatic whistling.buoys, one new bell-buoy, and ninety-three new buoys of the ordinary
REPORT OF THE SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY.
XM
kind. I t has discontinued two lights which are now no longer needed,
and has changed the characteristics of ten others, that they may be
more useful than heretofore.
The new light-house on Stannard's Rock, Lake Superior, Avas Mghted
on the 4th of July. This work, Avhich was specially difficult, is fuUy
described in the Appendix to the Annual Report of the Light-House
Board.
The board refrained from making recommendation as to lighted
buo;^'S until the results of the experime^nts made in foreign waters were
ascertained. These buoys have now proved to be such valuable and
comparatively inexpensive aids to navigation that they have been
adopted into several of the light-house systems of Europe. The board
bas recently had occasion to place a lighted buoy to mark a wreck ih
qne of the channels leading into the port of New York, which could be
successfully marked in no other manner.
The work of changing the burners of the lights in the several lighthouse districts, so as to substitute mineral oil for lard oil as an illuminant, is now so far completed that on the 1st of January next mineral
oil Avill be used in all except the light-houses of the first order.
The appropriation made for erecting electric lights at Hell Gate will
enable the board to transfer its experiments with the electric light from
the laboratory to a light-house, where it can have a working test.
Attention is called to the board's annual report for further details
with regard to the Light-House SerAdce.
COAST AND GEODETIC SURVEY.
The operations of the Coast and Geodetic Survey, both in the field
and in the office, have been steadily advanced.
Topographic and hydrographic surveys have been carried on on the
Atlantic, Gulf, and Pacific coasts. Aid has been given to the State
surveys in i)rogress in nine interior States.
Data and material have been accumulated for additional volumes of
the Atlantic Coast Pilot, and for new editions of the Coast Pilots of
Galifornia, Oregon, Washington Territory, and of Alaska. New charts
and new editions of old charts have been published. The annual publication of tide-tables has been continued.
In the estimates for the prosecution of the surA^ey is an item for the
eonstruction of a steam-vessel specially adapted to the survey pf the
coasts and navigable passages of the Territory of Alaska. The growing importance of that country and the needs of its commerce and
eavigation recommend this proposition to the favorable action of Congress.

REPORT OF T H E SRCRETARY OF T H E
TREASURY.
THE MARINE-HOSPITAL SERVICE.
During the year 36,184 patients received 333,475 days relief in hospital. Transportation to their ow^n homes.was furnished to scA^en incurable patients. Fifteen seamen have been furnished treatment at
the Government .Hospital for the Insane; 306 seamen were examined
physically as preliminary to shipping; 2,090 pilots were examined for
color-blindness; and 3,278 seamen Avere vaccinated, because of the
prevalence of small-pox. The receipts Avere $408,215.69, and the gross
expenditures $468,120.16. These expenditures include $54,192.20,
on account of extraordinary alterations and repairs to hospital buildings. Less this amount, $413,928.14 was the net expense of the service. On July 1, there Avas an unexpended balance of $177,869.85^
$50,000 of which will be required for additional repairs then under
contract, and $15,000 more for contemplated alterations. The hospitals
generally.are in good condition. The recommendation heretofore made
for the establishmeut of a " snug harbor" for those sailors and boatmeii
permanently disabled, and that for the physical examination of all seamen before shipping are rencAved. Of the 2,090 pilots examined for colorblindness, sixty-three Avere rejected as being color-blind, while of the remaining 306, tAventy-four were rejected for various disabilities. There
is now no complaint against the examination for color-blindness, and it
is believed that the Department would haA^e no difficulty in carrying out
the law for the general physical examination of all seamen. One hundred and fifty-four deaths are reported of passengers on voyages from
foreign ports to this country. Report thereof is the beginning of
statistics on the hygiene of merchant vessels, to meet the intention of
Congress in providing for the inspection of those vessels, to show
the relative mortality in classes of them. To complete them, the reports should be kept up for years.
An epidemic of small-pox broke out on the Upper. Missouri riven^
where there was no local sanitary law, and the Department, being
called upon, made use of the customs force to suppress the disease.
In my judgment, the hospital-tax should not be reduced until seamen
request it, or until Congiess shall make annual appropriations for the
support of the service. When the tax Avas but 20 cents per month, the
Department Avas obliged to deny relief to many suffering seamen ; now
relief is denied to few, if any, who are entitled to receiA^e it. The entire number of applicants rejected the last year Avas 979. These
were mostly in the larger cities, and were generally longshoremen
and fishermen, in many cases persons who were not sailors. The
number of persons rejected who had everbeen sailors was small. The

yearly receipts below the expenditures. There is, however, an accumulation of funds to the credit of this service of near three-quarters ef a
million dollars. This will for some years meet any deficiency. Before
it is wholly used the service may become self-sustaining by the inxcrease in the number of vessels to be inspected and the fees collected
therefrom. The fees have increased for several years about $6,000

IMMIGRATION.
The execution of the act to regulate immigration approved August 3,
1882, has disclosed certain defects in the statute which seem to require
legislative remedy.
While the act gives the Secretary of the Treasury supervision of the
^business of immigration to this country, it enables him to exercise this
supervision only through commissioners appointed by the Governors of
.States in Avhich lie the ports at which immigrants land. He is further
t o supervise the business only under the stipulations of contracts entered into with such commissioners. Most of the collectors of customs
have informed the Department that the amount of immigration at their
respective ports is not such as to warrant the appointment of commissioners. At two of the ports at which immigrants needing relief
are likely to arrive, namely, Baltimore and New Orleans, no commis-

sioners have been appointed by State authority, and hence the law iS'

commissioners have been appointed, and the statute is in operation
more or less successfully.
In collecting the tax of fifty cents levied by the act on every
alien passenger, not a citizen of theUnited States, arriving by a sail or
steam-vessel from a foreign port, it is found that many of the passengers are tourists, many intending a temporary sojourn in this^
country, and many are minors. Under the construction put by this
Department on.this provision of the statute, it has restricted the collection of this tax to alien passengers seeking a permanent residence in
this countrj^, including in that class minors contemplating a lasting home
here. Under this rule the sum collected at most of the ports has exceeded the demands for immigrant relief. At NewYork it has steadily
fallen behind these demands in an amount betAveen four and five thousand dollars per month. If the relief of immigrants is to be secured,
some provision is needed for a deficit of this character, inasmuch
as the particular sums collected can be expended only at the portswhere the immigrants arriA^e; and the disposition of the excess at some
ports should also be provided for.
It is respectfully suggested that the laAv is peculiarly framed, in this r
that while its execution is charged upon this Department, yet this
Department must act through subordinates doing the practical work.
They are to be appointed by State authority, and that authority may
fail to appoint, and they may or may not be paid a proper remuneration if appointed; and the rules and regulations which this Department
by direction of the statute is to establish are virtually restricted by t h e
terms of the contracts into which it may be able to enter with the State
boards or commissioners. The law is, therefore, in its essential features
one of uncertain operation. The thorough execution of it needs t h e
existence of an administrative bureau, with its proper body of officials.
But there is no provision in the act for such bureau, no provision for
administrative officers other than as above stated, and no provision
for the direct control of the business by this Department.
Under the proAnsions of section 4 of the act, it is provided that all
foreign convicts, except those convicted of political offences, shall, upon
arrival, be sent back to the nations where they belong and whence
they came. This pro Adsion may give rise to comphcations with foreign
countries growing out of demands for the return of convicts. First:
if the treaty stipulations with a foreign country require the direct return
of a convict belonging to that country to its accredited agents, this law
X:LVI
REPORT OF THE SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY.
might conflict with the treaty in requiring a return of the couAdct
Iby the master of the vessel in which the convict was a passenger, instead of a delivery of the convict to the agents of his country. Secondly: the law is itself ambiguous in its directions, as the country to
which the convict belongs may not be that whence he came. The Department has endeavored to remove this difficulty by adopting in its
regulations promulgated on the 7th of August last the provisions for
the return of convicts embodied in section 5 of the '' Act supplement^:^ry to the acts in relation to immigration," approved March 3, 1875.
But the recent statute should be so amended as, on its face, to be free
ifrom ambiguity.
NATIONAL BOARD OF. HEALTH.
The report of the National Board of Health for the fiscal year ended
J u n e 30, 1882, shows an expenditure of $98,523.07.
This expenditure has been made chiefly in aid of State and local
boards of health and of local quarantine stations, in preventing the
ooming in of yellow fever and small-pox from foreign ports and the
spread of them by river and railroad.
The act of June 2, 1879, under which some of the operations of the
board are conducted, will expire by limitation on the 2d of June, 1883.
If it be deemed advisable to continue the work on which the board is
•engaged, additional legislation will be necessary, and appropriations,
based upon the past experiences of the board, amounting to $150,000,
will be required, and $100,000 for use in case of epidemics.
The details of the work of the board, the results achieved, and the
appropriations required for its continuance are shoAvn in the annual
report of the board, which is transmitted.
APPROPRIATION FOR PREVENTING T H E SPREAD OF EPIDEMIC DISEASES.
One hundred thousand dollars were appropriated by Congress at its
last session, to be used, in the discretion of the President, for preventing the spread of epidemic diseases. The expenditure was by him
•committed to this Department, because it had ready the serAdces of
trained members of the Marine-Hospital Service, of the Revenue-Ma.riue Service, and the Customs Service.
The Governor of Texas applied for aid in checking the spread of yel-.
low fever in that State. The Surgeon-General of the Marine-Hospital
Service was charged Avith the duty of rendering it. The trust was fulmied Avith judgment and zeal, and the spread of the fever checked*
REPORT OF THE SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY. XLVII
The system of cordons formed by him and his official coadjutors was
well conceived and useful. The result of their operations shoAVS that
ihe management of such matters may well be confided to them.
ALASKA.
Early attention should be given to the establishment of civil government for Alaska Territory. The importance of that land is not, I
fear, fully recognized. It is rich in timber and in the supplies which
the ocean gives; and with the present rapid cutting down of the forest
on lands nearer niarket, and the ruthlessly wasteful modes of taking
fish on coasts and in rivers nearer at hand, it will too soon become the
resource of the country for those products of nature. Moreover, the
extent and richness of useful mineral deposit and of precious metals
there are not yet fully known, though the indications are that they are
great. Were civil government established, immigration and permanent settlement would be encouraged and the way made ready for the
profitable use of the natural advantages which that region proffers.
There is no lawful authority in that Territory to dispense justice and act
upon conflicting claims, unless that assumed by customs officers may be
called such. There should be there, as elsewhere, the ready protection
of law, administered by officers and in ways, themselves lawful; and
then material and social development would go forAvard. The Treasury
Department should not be charged with the responsibility of administering the affairs of that Territory, except in so far as they come within
its legitimate functions; certainly not without some well-defined rule
of action.
The Alaska Commercial Company has taken during the past year
nearly the maximum number of seal-skins permitted uuder its lease,
paid the tax due thereon, as well as the rent of the islands, and otherwise performed its duties under its lease.
DISTINCTIVE P A P E R .
There have been received and duly accounted for since the last report 10,371,950 sheets of silk-threaded distinctive-fibre paper for the
printing of United States notes, national-bank notes, gold and sih-er
certificates, registered bonds, checks, and other obligations of the
Government. The use of this paper continues to give satisfaction,
and it is believed furnishes an important defence against attempts at
counterfeiting.
During the same period there have been received 19,748,000 sheets
of the distinctive paper adopted for the printing of internal-revenue
and customs stamps.
XLVIII REPORT OF THE SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY.
The United States legal-tender notes, national currency and
miscellaneous securities, received by this office during the fiscal year
, ended June 30, 1882, for final count and destruction, amounted to
$169,665,573.75 J, and United States legal tender notes, national currency^
United States bonds, and other obligations mutilated in process of
printing, and unissued notes, received for destruction, amounted to
$40,841,164, making an aggregate of securities counted, cancelled,
and destroyed, of Avhich details A\dll be found in the tables accompanying this report, of $210,506,737.75J.
BUREAU OF ENGRAVING AND PRINTING.
The work of this bureau steadily increases. The aggregate deliveries for the year are over twenty per cent, greater, the expenditures
for it less than twelve per cent, greater, and the force of employes about
ten per cent, greater than the year before. All the engraving, platepriuting, and work incidental thereto required by the Treasury De^
partment is now done in this bureau under the direct supervision of
the officers of the Government.
^
The matter of the use of steam-power presses for printing was OB
July 10,1882, referred to a special committee, who still have it incharge.
OAving to a pressure of work on the three per cent, bonds and on th@
new form of circulating notes for national banks which availed themselves of the act of August 12, 1882, the labors of the committee were
necessarily broken in upon, and they have not yet finished the task.
set them to do,
PUBLIC BUILDINGS,
Congress at its last session authorized the erection of thirty-sevem
neAV buildings for public use, including four marine hospitals; the puBchase of ohe hospital-building; the extension and remodelling of the
custom-house at Buffalo, and that of the court-house and post-office at
Des Moines, Iowa. This contemplated an aggregate final cost of
$6,293,000; of which $3,258,000 were at once appropriated. Sites have
been selected for nine of these buildings, and a site for the building at
Jackson, Miss., for which appropriation was made at the previous session. Steps have been taken for the selection of others, where jurisdiction over the land has been ceded by respective States, Where
this has not been done the Department awaits the action of Legislatures.
REPORT OP THE SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY.
XLIX
I call attention tQ a recommendation in the report of the Supervising
Architect, that the authority for purchasing land at Pensacola be not
limited to the extension of that now owned by the United States, and
that the Government may acquire a new site, if found advisable.
Of the buildings in progress under former authorizations, five have
been finished during the year, and on twenty work is in progress.
There has been expended during the year on the public buildings
under control of the Department, $2,349,249,65 for construction,
$160,618.03 for repairs, and $137,137.06 for heating apparatus, elevators, vaults, safes, and locks.
^
DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA.
The net expenditures on account of the District of Columbia for the ,
fiscal year 1882 were $3,330,543.87. The revenues deposited in the
Treasury for the same period were $1,715,176.41.
Since December 1, 1881, the bonded indebtedness was reduced by
operation of the sinking-fund $250,350, and the annual interest charge
upon the District debt was reduced $13,795.05. Since the office of the
commissioners of the sinking-fund of the District of Columbia was abolished and their duties and powers were transferred to the Treasurer qf
the United States by the act of Congress of June 11, 1878, the funded
debt has been reduced in the principal sum $1,189,250, and the annual
interest charge thereon has been reduced $69,587.67.
The several reports of the heads of offices and bureaus are hercAvith
respectfully transmitted.
The Department is pleased to report that as yet there is no deficiency
in the appropriations placed by Congress at its disposal,

*In the amount hbre stated as the outstanding jDrincipal of the publicjlebt are included the. certificates of deposit outstanding on the 30th of June, issued under act of dune 8, 1872, for which a like
amount in United States notes was on special deposit in the Treasury for their redemption, and added
to the cash balance iu the Treasury, These certificates, as a matter of accouuts, are treated as a part
of the public debt, but, being offset by notes held on deposit for their redemption, should properly be
deducted from the principal of the public debt iu making comparison with former years.

* I t will be noticed that there is a difference in the amounts represented by these two statements as
tbe priucipal of tbe debt July 1, 1869, and July 1, 1870. Tbis differeuce is explained thus: l u the principal ofthe debt as shown by the monthly debt-statements of these dates, the^bonds p.urchased for the
sinking-fund aud paid for from money in ibhe Treasury, were iucluded as a part ofthe outstanding debt
aud were also treated iu the cash as a cash-item, or asset, for the reason that at that time there was no
authority or law for deductiug thera from the outstandiug debt. Congress, by the sixth section of the
act of July 14, 1870, directed that these bonds should be canceled and destroyed and deducted from the
amouut of each class ofthe outstanding debt to which they respectively belonged,, aud such deductions
were accordingly made on the books of the department and iu the table of the debt in the annual report.

APPENDIX.-
REPORT ON THE SILVER-PROFIT FUND.
^m\r YoRiv, A^yril 28, 1882.
S I R : 1 have the honor to .report that, pursuant to your instructions
of the 7th instant, I have made an examination of the '^ silver profitfund account/^ of the several 'coinage mints, and herewith present
statements of that accouut; also statements of the '' silver-bullion'^ and
*^silver-coinage" accounts for the fiscal years5 1879, 1880, and 1881. The
accompanying statements are numbered froni 1 to 13, inclusive. .As
will be seen by these accounts, the total amount placed to the credit of
the silver-profit fund during the period' covered by this investigation
was $10,081,49(3.31, which has been disposed of as follows, viz :
Beposited in the Treasury of the United States $9, 776,020 24
.Expenses of distribntion and allowances for wastage
by operati\'e officers
305,476 07
10,081,496 31
The amount as given in a report lately published was $10,181,496.31^
showing a difference of $100,000, which is accounted for as follows, vis :
On July 1, 1878, the sil ver-profit fnnd of the San Francisco Mint
showed a credit balance of $137,182.25, but the records of the Treasury
Department show that $100,000 of this balanee had been deposited by
order of the Secretary of the Treasury, on June 28, 1878, with the
Treasurer of the United States at Washington, D. C. Noticeof this
transaction did not reach San Francisco until the third quarter of 1878,
and in the absence of'Such notice, the^Superintendent of the Mint had
no authority to take credit for said deposit. Hence his balance of
$137,182.25 was a nominal balance, the actual amount being $37,182.25.
In order that the whole transaction may be shown in the consolidated
statement of the silver-profit fund, the nominal balance has been
brought forward as on hand at San Francisco July 1,1878, and the deposit of $ 100,000 made June 26, 1878, has been deducted to show the
actual balance on hand, viz, $37,182.25. The warrant by which the
$100,000. was covered into the Treasury having been taken up in the
statement as a credit, a corresponding deduction has been made upon
the credit side of the account. In other words, a counter entry of
$100,000 has been made, which reduces the total to $10,081,496.25, this
being the correct amount of the profit at the four coinage mints from
June 30, 1878, to July 1, 1881.
The difiiculty of calculating the profits on the coinage of silver in
any other way than by taking the average cost of the bullion for a given
period is shown by the following facts, viz:
The act of February 28, 1878, authorizing the coinage of the standard silver dollar, directed the Secretary of the Treasury to'purchase
silver bullion at the market price, not less than $2,000,000—nor more
53

than $4,000,000—worth per month, aud cause the same to be coined as
fast as purchased into silver dollars, and that any gain or seigniorage
arising from this coinage should be accounted for and paid into the
Treasury as provided by the law relating to the subsidiary coinage.
(Section 3528 Eevised Statutes.)
Silver for this purpose is obtained by weekly purchases made by a
Commission, consisting of the Assistant Secretary ofthe Treasury, the
Treasurer of the United States, and the Director of the Mint, of lots of
not less than 10,000 ounces, offers being made by telegraph every Thursdayl The silver so purchased is delivered to the mint designated, the
Superintendent receiving and paying for the same, charging himself
with the amount receivecl in standard ounces. In addition tq this, the
Superintendents of the Mints have authority from, the Secretary to purchase lots of less than 10,000 ounces when offered at prices fixed from
day to day or from week to week by the Director. Silver is also obtained for this puri:)ose by the purchase, by the Superintendents, of the
silver contained in deposits of gold bullion, by the return of surplns silver bullion by the operative officers, by the remelting of coins, by the
paj^ment of the Government charges on deposits of silver bullion for
bars, in bullion, and, finally, from the sweepings of the fioors of the deposit-melting rooms and the scrapings ofthe crucibles.
The law allows depositors to deposit silver bullion in the niint to be
made into bars. The charges iinposed for the operations are collected
in bullion, thereby adding to the stock of silver which can be used in
the coinage of the silver dollars.
^
The sources from which silver to be used in coiriage may be obtained
may be summarized as follows:
Purchases by the Silver Commission.
Purcliases by Superintendents (less than 10,000 ounces).
XDurchases of the silver contained in deposits of gold bullion;
Payment of mint charges in silver bullion.
Surplus bullion returned by operative officers.
Silver bullion recovered from deposit-melting room.
Coins deposited by the Assistant Treasurer for recoinage.
The difference between thecostof the silver thus obtained aud the
^ face value of the coins which it will make, is the profit to the Government which the law authorizes to be credited to a fund called ^' Silver, 13rofit fund." These profits can be used by law for the following imrposes viz:
^
For expenses of distributing silver dollars, for payment of silver
wasted in coinage and the preparation of ingots, and for payment of
loss on sweeps sold.
From ,the variety bf sonrces aud the different prices at which this
bullion is obtained, it will be seen that the material of which a single
dollar is composed ina}^ have been acquired at several different rates.
I t is impossible to follow a single deposit of bullioh through the ,various manipulations it undergoes from the time it is received at the mint
until its coinage, and accurately determine the profit on that particular
deposit, as no one deposit is separately manipulated, it having been
found by experience to be more economical to mix new bullion with
that which has been previously melted than to treat it separately.
Section 3506 of the Kevised Statutes provides that the amount re. maining in the silver-profit fund, after paying the wastage and expenses
. of distributing the coins, s h a l l b e from time to time covered into the
Treasury. The wording of the last clause is: '' The balance to the
REPORT OF. THE SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY.
.55
credit of this fund shall be from time to time, and at least twice a year,
paid into the Treasury of the United States. "
.
The regulations governing the mint service, approved by the Secretary of the Treasury, provide that ^ all profits, gains, and charges, to^
gether with the funds arising from the sale of by-products and old m'ate-.
rials, must be covered quarterly into the Treasury ofthe United States,
and no portion th.ereof used for the payment of salaries or ordinary expenses." The practice has been to cover into the Treasury profits on
the coinage of silver at such times and in such amounts as best suited
the general business of the mints and the Department. The accounts
show the amounts covered into the Treasury by transfers from the
^^silver profit-fund account" to the ^'bullion-fund account," and the
coin does not leave the vaults of the mint.
When a sufficient amount of profits have accumulated at any mint,
in the judgment of the Director, he addresses a letter to the Secretary
of the Treasury requesting that such amount be deposited and transferred to the Superintendent's bullion fund, and the Seeretary directs
the Treasurer to make a deposit in the name of the Superintendent and
issue at the same time a transfer order charging it to his bullion fund.
It has never been held by the Director of the Mint that the exact
balance at the close of the fiscal year should be at that time covered
into the Treasury. This, in,the judgment of the Director, would notcbe
practicable, for the reason that the expenses of distributing the coins
are being incurred daily, and it is necessary to keep a portion of the
profits on hand to pay this expense, as well as to pay the loss o,n the
silver in sweeps sold, and the operative officers' silver wastage. The
Sui^erintendent is charged with the profits, whether in the silver-profit
account or after transfer to the bullion fund.
The bullion accounts of the mints, which are very elaborate and
voluminous reports, do not reach the office of the Director for some
two months after the close of the qnarter for which they are rendered,
and it is thought desirable to examine the accounts and check the payments from the silver-profit fund in order to verify the balance of silver
profits on hand before ordering the full amount to be covered into the
Treasury. Should an amount be covered into the Treasury by error, it
cannot be withdrawn except by an act of Congress.
^ Prior to the 1st of January, 1881, the profits on the coinage of. silver
'
were declared on the silver purchased, in accordance with the regulations of 1874, approved by the Secretary of the Treasury, page' 13,
which reads: ' ' I t is directed, therefore, that on all silver purchased or
parted, a profit shall be credited at the end of each quarter, equal to
the difference between the rate of purchase and iswsue." In accordance
with these regulations the silver bullion purchased was charged to the
Superintendent at its cost. He was also charged with the difference
between the cost of the bullion and%ie face value of the standard silver
dollars it would make. This regulation had for its object the keeping
of the accounts at one unit of value. During the thre.e fiscal years
1879, 1880, and 1881, there were coined at the Philadelphia mint $21,081.75 subsidiary silver coin, and the additional profit arising from the
difference in weight between two half dollars and a standard dollar was
credited to the silver-profit fund as an aidditional profit.
IsTo subsidiary silver was coined at any other coinage mint during the
three fiscal years under consideration.
From the facts ascertained during this, examination at the Bureau
of the Mint and at the mint in Philadelphia, where I witnessed the
actual workings of the operative officers, I am of opinion that itisim
56

possible to divert an}'of the funds belonging to the silver-profit fund
account from their proper channel,, except through collusion between the
Superintendent and the several Officers of each mint, for the following
reasons, viz: First. The Superintendent of each mint is charged with
the silver bullion pnrchased for coinage by weiglit in standard ounces,
as determined from the fineness reported by the assayer, and he must
account for the numlyer of ounces delivered to him. Second. This bullion he delivers by iveight to the melter and refiner to be made into
ingots, and receives back hy iveight the ingots to be made into coin,
which ingots are in turn delivered to the coiner, the coiner returning
coin and bullion in clippings, &c. Third. Eeceipts for iceight in
standard ounces pass for all tliese transactions. These receipts accompany the bullion accounts as vouchers, and there is no way that the
Superintendent can obtain a credit for any of this bullion, except in
the manner Stated. He must account for the numher of ounces of bullion
delivered to him, by making it into com, by.the icastage of the operative officers ill their business and the amount sold insioeeps.
On the 30th of June ofeach year since the organization ofthe office
of Director of the Mint, the coin and bullion iu the Superintendents'
. possession havebeen weighed by representatives of the Departmenb. for
the pnrpose of ascertaining whethep^the officers had in their possession
the balances called for by their books and accounts; and these accounts
have been certified and allow^ed by the First Auditor and the First
Comptroller, and the bullion and coin actually iveighed by examiners
designated by the Director for that purpose. From the facts ascertained by the examination of this account for the
l)eriod under consideration, I am of the opinion that the silver-profit
fund has been properly accounted for.
I was greatly assisted in making up these accounts by Mr. Thomas
Eathbone, of the Second Auditor's Office. On my return, I made an
examination of the books and accounts of the Philadelphia mint, and
found them to agree in every particular with the accounts of that instition, as xirepared by Mr. Eaithbone and myself froip the quarterly accounts on file in the Department.
Very respectfully,
WILLIAM SHEEEE.

REPORT OF THE SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY.
NOTES A P P E R T A I N I N G TO CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF SILVER-PROFIT FUND.
* The total amount given in the report heretofore xiublished is
The total as per the above statement is
Showing a difference of
.-
$10,181, 496 31
10, 081,496 31
,
100, 000 00
Which is accounted for as follows :
On July 1, 1878, the silver profit fund account of San Francisco Mint showed a balance of $137,182. 25
on hand, but the records ofthe Treasury Department prove that $100,000 of this balance was deposited
by order ofthe Secretary of the Treasury, on June 26, 1878. Notice of this deposit did not reach San
Francisco until the third quarter, 1878, and in the absence of such notice the Superintendent of the
Mint had no authority to take credit for such deposit. Hence his balance of $137,182.25 was a nominal
balance, the actual amount being $37,182,25.
. In order that the Avhole transaction may ax)pear in this ^^consolidated statement,.'^ the nominal balance of $137,182. 25 has been Ijrought foi-Avard as on hand at San Francisco, July 1, 1878, and the deposit
of $100,000 made on June 26, 1878, has been deducted from said balance, so as to show the actual balance on band, namely, $37,182.25. The warrant by Avhich the $100,000 Avas coA^ered into the Treasury
liaA^ing been,taken up as a ciedit in this stateraent, a similar deduction has been made on the credit
eide of the aecount. In other Avords, a counter entry of $100,000 has been made, which reduces tbe
total to $10,081,'496.31, that bein.g tbe correct amount of the transactions at the four coinage mints on
account of the " silver ^profit-fund,'' from July 1, 1878, to June 30, 1881.
tThis ba;lance has been dei:)Osited in the Treasury and covered in, as per warrants on file in the Register's office, as follows:

REDUCTION OF TAXATION.
The receipts from internal-revenue taxation have year by year increased, from $113,000,000 in the fiscal year 1879, to $124,000,000 in 1880,
to $135,000,000 in 1881, and to $146,500,000 (in round figures) in the fis'* Thie appendix here referred to is omitted from this volume for want of space, but it will be found

REPORT ON THE FINANCES.
cal year last ended.' . There will probably be some diminution in the receipts for the present fiscal year as compared with last year, but it is
not likely that the collections of internal rcA^enue for the current year
will fall below $145,000,000 should the taxes now imposed be retained.
I t is au old and sound maxim that no more revenue should be raised
than is necessary for an economical administration of the goA^ernment
and a gradual reduction of the public debt. Although taxation may be
so wisely adjusted as not to operate asa'severe burden upon the people,
when the amount collected is beyond the actual needs of the governnient there is presented a constant temptation to extravagance in appropriations. Another consideration attending the existing overflowing
condition of the public Treasury cannot have failed to attract your
notice. If the present raDte of paying the principal of the public debt be
continued, all the bonds subject to call will be paid Avithin three years;
after which time the government will be compelled, in order to dispose
of its surplus revenue, to buy in open market the 4J per cent, bonds
which fall due in 1891, or the 4 per cent, bonds Avhich fall due in 1907.
Should the government thus become an active purchaser of these bonds
before maturity it seems clear that they would advance in i^rice t6 25
or 30 per cent, premium, to pay Avhich would certainly be regarded as
a waste ofthe people's money. It seems to me judicious that the principal ofthe public debt should be extinguished, as was originally contemplated, only at the rate necessary to meet the requirements of the
sinking fund, viz, to the extent ofabout $55,000,000 per annum. Therefore, i t becomes obvious that a reduction of from scA^enty to eighty millions in the annual reveuues\)f the country could be safely entered upon,
and in my judgment such a reduction is urgently called for. I resxiectfully offer some suggestions for your consideration in this regard.
Sound policy would seem to require that in remitting taxation the
relief should fall as far as possible upon those articles Avhich are necessaries of life, and upon those interests which are of pressing importance to the country. The great bulk of internal-revenue taxation is derived from distilled spirits (ajbout nine-tenths of which are used as a
beverage), malt liquors, tobacco, and cigars. These afe not articles of
necessary consumption, but are articles of luxury, the taxes upon which
are really paid by the consumers, and no one need consume them. I am
strongly of the opinion that, so long as the principle of deriving part
of the revenue of the government from interual taxation is retained,
these articles, and the dealers therein, are proper subjects for taxation.
There is no demand on the part of consumers of these products for the
remission of the taxes imposed upon them; there is no public sentiment calling tor their repeal; on the contrary, the general current of
public opinion seems to be in favor of their retention.
The other objects of inteirnal-revenue taxation, with the amounts
realized therefrom during the past fiscal year, are as follows:
Friction matches
Patent medicines, i^erfumery, &c
Bank cliecks

Saving-s-bank deposits

REVENUE.
•As suggested in my report for 1880, these taxes should, in my opinion,
be repealed. The tax on friction matches is more or less felt in every
household. The tax on savings-bank deposits is a tax on thrift. The
tax on patent medicines, perfumeries, and cosmetics is vexatious, being
levied upon innumerable articles. The taxes on bank capital, bank deposits, and bank checks are not needed for purposes of revenue, and
can therefore be dispensed with, and the latter tax is largely amenable
to the objection made to the tax on deposits in saAnngs banks—that it
is an impost laid upon the practice of economy, which it should be the
design of all good governments to encourage.
The repeal of these taxes would greatly simplify the iiiternal-revenue
system.^ Then, if to the eighteen and three-quarter millions of reduction thus proposed Congress should add a reduction in the charges for
special taxes to dealers in articles taxed for internal revenuesubstantially
as proposed in the bill now pending before the Senate, a still further
diminution of taxation would be attained, and the superAdsion OA^er
dealers in taxable articles, which experience has shown to be necessary
in order to fully and fairly collect the taxes from all alike, would still be
preserved. '
Eeducing all these special taxes 40 per cent., the remissions under
this head would be as follows, on the basis of last year's collections :

The act of March 1, 1879, reduced the tax on tobacco from 24 cents
per pound to 16 cents per pound, but did not reduce the tax on cigars
and cigarettes. A corresponding reduction on cigars would be to $4
per thousand, and on cigarettes to $1.20 per thousand. This, I think,
should be done, and would amount to a reduction of taxes of $6,746,000.
This would make a total reduction of internal-revenue taxes (including the taxes on national banks) as follows:
Matches, medicines, perfumery, and banks
Special taxes
Cigars and cigarettes

REPORT ON THE FINANCES. "
possible to foresee the effect which a reduction of the rate of duties on
many of the great lines of imxiortation would have upon the receipts
from customs. It is contended that a reduction of duty upon many articles Avould so increase the importation of thern as to yield an actual
increase of reveuue. The demand of the hour i.s for legislation that will
reduce the receipts of the government I venture to suggest whether
"it is not desirable to consider the practicability of taking the duty off*
sugar. About 2,200,000,000 pounds of sugar are annually consumed in
the United States, 10 per cent, of which is produced in this country.
Upon the 2,000,000,001) pounds imported, the government realizes a
irevenue of $49,000,000. Sugar is one of the necessaries of life; it is
consumed in e^very household. Should this duty be removed, there
Avould be not only a certain and large reduction of revenue, but the
benefit of that reduction would iramediately inure to the people. The
best refined sugar, which now sells at 10 cents a pound retail, could be
sold at scA^en cents if the duty were removed, and the total reduction
would amount to A^ery nearly one dollar per capita per annum of the
entire population of the country.
The'objection to this measure would be the abolition of the protection
now afforded to the sugar interests of Louisiana and other States. This
difficulty might be met by giving a bounty of, say, two and one-half
cents per pound upon all home-produced sugar. The cultivation of
sugar in this country is not a rapidly-growing industry; there is no prospect that the production of cane sugar will ever bear a greater proportion to the consumption than at present. If the area of the lands suitable for the growth of sugar-cane was large, and the industry was one
which would dcA^elop rapidly under the encouragement of protective
legislation, so that the constantly growing demand for sugar would be
overtaken and supplied by a home product, the question would be A^ery
difierent; but such is not the case. Sugar-cane is a tropical plant, and,
its cultivation in the United States is confined to a small portion of
Louisiana, Florida, and Texas,^and where groAvn it is subject to the hazards of frosts and floods, so that a maxiinum crop is not produced oftener
than eveiy other year, as will be seen from the following figures, which
show the quantities of sugar and molasses produced for the years named:

The quantity of sugar imported during the fiscal year 1861 Avas
511,000,000 pounds, while the quantity imported during the fiscal year
1882 was 1,900,000,000 pounds. It is thus seen that while the home
product has not increased in tvventy-one years, the importations have
increased almost fourfold.
I apprehend if sugar were not produced in this country Congress
'would not hesitate to remove the dut}' from imported sug^r as the best
means of reducing taxation. The present law gives to the sugar planters
of this'country, indirectly, about $4,000,000 or $5,000,000 per annum.
My proposition would be to give them this amount directly and let the
whole people have the benetit of the reduction of taxation of, say,
$49,000,000, which would in this way be eff'ected.

The principle of paying a bounty for the encouragement and development of Ameriqan industry is not new; it was adopted in the case of

our fisheries as early as 1813, and was continued for more than fifty
years. Millions of dollars have been paid out during this period to
American fishermen for fish caught and exported, and we are still giving to this industry the bonus of allowing them to withdraw salt free
of duty and of requiring from them no tonnage dues. As a matter of
principle, a bounty to our sugar interests would, in my opinion, be no
more objectionable than similar encouragement to our fisheries.
These reductions, if made, would amount to $77,531,888.
Detailed information is subjoined of the aniount of internal revenue
collected during the past year, and forthe first four months of the present fiscal year; of the sources whence that revenue was derived; of the
States and districts in which the collectious weremade during thepast

ACCOUNTABILITY l^OU THE PUBLIC FUNDS.
TJie entire amount thus collected was promptly COA-ered into the
Treasury Avithout loss. During the past six fiscal years the sum of
$748,834,071.02 has been collected from internal-revenue taxation and
paid iuto the Treasury without any loss by defalcation.
COST OF COLLECTION.
The cost of collection for the past fiscal year, distributed among the
different items of appropriation, was approximately as follows : :;

about $27,087,300, or about 3.6 per cent, on the amount collected.' This
sum has been disbursed without loss to the government.

REPORT. ON T H E
FINANCES.
BONDS APPROVED AND AMOUNTS RECOVERED THEREON.
The following tables Avill be interesting as showing the number of
bonds received an(J approved by collectors of internal revenue during
the past six years, in connection with the manufacture of spirits, malt
liquors, tobacco, and cigars, the warehousing^ of distilled spirits, and
the exportation of taxable articles. I t will be seen that 139,641 bonds
have been executed, aggregating the penal sum of $701,726,043.20 ; the
sum of $25,955.74 has been collected from sureties, and $97,336.09 recoA^ered on distilled spirits on judgments not yet collected.
This exhibit reflects great credit upon the officers receiving and approving the bonds, and upon the taxpayers who executed them, the
amount recovered from sureties being infinitesimal as compared with
the detailed collections of taxes:

ACCOUNTABILITY FOR STAMPS RECEIVED.
A committee was appointed on the 7th June last at my request to
count the stamps on hand in the A^aults of this office, and to verify the
account of stamps received and issued. The committee consisted of
Mr. T. L. De Land, Office of the Secretary of the Treasury; Mr. S. C.
Clarke, First Comptroller's Office, and Mr. Y. N. Stiles, Fifth Auditor's
Office. The committee was furnished with a statement showing the
transactions in stamps from October 4,1877 (the date of the transfer of the
stock of stamps to this Bureau by the New York Bank Kote Companies,
and the commencement of printing of stamps by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing), to June 10, 1882 (the date of the commencement of
work by the committee). The total number of stamps received during the
period Avas 2,544,344,342; value, $711,180,978.63; issued, 2,381,155,648;
value, $668,974,384.46; leaving the balance on hand June 10, 1882,
163,188,694 stamps; A-alue, $42,206,594.17. The balance of stamps was
counted under the direction of the committee and found to be correct to
a stamp, and the value agreed to a cent with the balance shown by the
books of this office. This immense quantity of stamps has been received, counted, and issued without an error resulting in the loss of a
stamp.
A detailed statement showing the number and value of the stamps
receiA^ed and issued during the six years, and of the balauce remaining
on hand, is given at page 92 of this report.
GENERAL CONDITION OF THE SERVICE.
The condition of the service is all that can be desired. The reports
of the inspecting officers shoAv that an admirable esprit de corps actuates
every officer in the performance of his duties.
I desire to extend my thanks to the officers of internal re Avenue
throughout the country for their zeal and energy in bringing about this
result. The thanks of this office are also due to the United States marshals for their hearty co-operation with the internal-revenue officers in
enforcing the laAVS.
D I S T I L L E D SPIRITS IN BOND.
Some months ago many of the leading sweet-mash distillers made an
arrangement for a reduction of the producing capacity of their distilleries, and for limiting the manufacture of their line of distilled spirits
to the demands of the trade. They haA^e recentl}^ been followed by a
large nnmber of sour-mash distillers with a somewhat similar arrangement. The effect will be to cut down the production of all classes of
distilled spirits to the demands of the trade.
On the 30th dayof June,1882, the spirits remaining in warehouses reached
the highest point, namely, 89,962,645 gallons. Since that time there has
been a gradual reduction in the amount remaining in wa.rehouses, and
on the 1st day of FoA^ember, 1882, the amount was 84,628,331 gallons.
This large stock mainly consists of fine grades of whisky, the tax upon
which, will fall due from month to month until the last withdrawal,
which must be made NoA^ember 6, 1885.
If the future demand for this class of goods is to be judged of by the
withdrawals of similar goods tax-paid during the past few years, the
stock now on hand is equal to six years' consumption. To postpone the
payment of the tax on this stock until its withdrawal is required b y t h e
80
REPORT ON THE FINANCES.
demands of trade, a movement has been set on foot for its exportation
and reimportation, and storage in customs bonded warehouses. This is
entirely practicable, under exisiting laws, and it becomes a question
whether it would not be better to afford by legislation the relief sought
to be obtained by this indirect means. An extension of the bonded
period for a reasonable time need not impair the security of the government for its taxes, and would in no manner tend to reduce the income
of the gOA^ernment from this source of revenue which has up to this
period resulted from the natural laws of trade and the demand for distilled spirits for consumption. By this means the expenses of transportation both ways and custom-house charges abroad would be saA'^ed.
THE ENFORCEMENT OF THE LAAV"S.
It affords me great pleasure to report that the supremacy of the laws
of the United States for the collection of its inte^rnal revenues has been
established in all parts of the country. Frauds in the manufacture and
saleof whisky and tobacco in the districts where they liaA^e hitherto
most prevailed have beconie the exception rather than the rule; There
is no longer organized resistance to the authority of the gOA^ernment^
the people render obedience to the laws, and the taxes are collected
without unnecessary friction and with but little litigation. To maintain
this favorable condition of things and to prevent the recurrence of
frauds it will be necessary to continue the system of careful policing
Avhich has brought about this result.
I have to record Avith extreme regret, as signalizing: the closing hours
of the long struggle maintained against the enforcement of the internalrevenue laAVS, the murder of .Deputy Collector James M. Davis, near
McMinnville, Tenn., in March last. Captain Davis was one of the
bravest and most efficient officers engaged in the suppression of illicit
distilling. Whilst on his w^j from court he Avas waylaid on the public ,
highway in broad daylight by ten or more assassins, concealed behind
an ambush of logs and bushes specially constructed for the purpose, and
was deliberately murdered under circumstances of peculiar atrocity whilst
bravely defending himself to the last. The place Avhere this crime was
committed is in the midst of a well-settled country. There is circumstantial CAadence that the assassination was plotted in a place of public
resort not far from the scene of the murder. Citizens rode by Avhilst
Davis's body was still warm and before his slayers were fairly out of
sight, yet, though liberal rewards have been, offered for the detection
and arrest of the criminals, no evidence has yet been obtained upon
which an arrest could be based.
PENSIONS TO AAaDOAVS AND ORPHANS OF OFFICERS K I L L E D .
The successful close of the struggle to establish and maintain the
internal-revenue laws of the Unitecl States is in my opinion a fitting
occasion to renew the recommendation in my last report for the granting of pensions to persons disabled while eugaged in enforcing said
laws, and to the Avidows and orphans of officers killed in the discharge
of their duty. The service in which these officers were engaged was particularly hazardous. No alternative being left except to meet force with
force, they were armed by the government with breech-loading carbines
to protect themselves against the assaults of those who resisted its authority. In this struggle thirty-one officers and employes haA^e been

officers and the widows and orphans of those Avho have been slain have
a just claim upon the bounty of the goA^ernment,and I earnestly recommend early legislation upon the subject.

TERB'I OF OFFICE OF COLLECTORS.
, I have the honor to again recommend that a laAv be passed fixing the
term of office for collectors of internal revenue at four years, and I further recommend that sa:id law shall provide that collectors of internal
revenue shall not be subject to removal except for such causes as are
designated in said law. I am satisfied that the incorporation into
the civil service ofthe principle of a fixed term and removal for cause
only, would result in a marked improvement in the public service, and
would meet what I seems to me a just and growing deinand of public
opinion.
' ,
FIXED SALARIES FOR UNITED STATES MARSHALS AND DISTRICT ATTORNEY'S.
I respectfully call attention to the remarks under this head in my last
annual report, and again recommend legislation in accordance AN^ith the
recommendation therein contained.
REDEMPTION OF STAMPS.
I rencAv the recommendation made in my last two reports that that
^portion.of section 17 of the act of March 1, 1879, which prohibits the
redemption of stamps unless the same are presented within three years
after their purchase from the government or a government agent fo^^
the sale of stamps, be repealed.
COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENIJE.
'

LEGISLATION CONCERNING MANUFACTURE OF .VINEGAR.
I also renew the recommendation made in previous reports for the
passage of a law prohibiting the manufacture of vinegar by the alcoholic A^aporizing process provided for in section 5 of the act of March
I, 1879, or subjecting A'-inegar factories using the A^aporizing process to
the supervision of a gOA'ernment storekeeper, and to a certain extent
to other safeguards, as now required in the case of distillers of spirits.
Further experience onlj^ confirms th6 opinion Avhich I haA'-e heretofore
expressed of the necessity for the indicated legislation for the protection of the reA-enue from dangerous frauds. Should it be deemed best'
to continue the present system, under suitable safeguards, it might, be
well to make such additional provisions as will xiermit the manufacturer to fully avail himself of the right to condense alcoholic vapor without the waste of material incident to the present process. The compensation of store-keeper, if proAdded, should be reimbursed to the government by the manufacturer.
EXAMINATION OF C^LUCOSE AND METHYLATED SPIRITS.
At the request of the Committee of Ways and Means of the House
of Eepresentatives I am having an examination made of a number of
samples of glucose, both dry and sirup, for the purpose of testing its
saccharine qualities and health fulness.
> Tests are also being made of methjdated spirits to determine AA^hether
alcohol mixed with wood naphtha can be restored to its original purity.
These experiments are being made by the Academy of Sciences, and reports are IIOAV expected, when they will be transmitted for the information of the committee.
MISCELLANEOUS EXPENSES.
The act of Congress approved March 3,1881, making provision for the
legislative, executive, and judicial expenses for the year ending June
30,1882, required the Commissioner of Internal Eevenue to make a detailed statement of all miscellaneous expenditures in the Bureau of Internal Eevenue, for which appropriation was made in that act. In accordance with the aforesaid requirement, I submit the following detailed
statement of miscellaneous expenses incurred:
Express OD public money to depositories
Stationery for internal-revenue officers
Internal-Revenue Record for.internal-revenue officers
Telegraphing
,
Compeusation of United States attorneys in internal-revenue cases, under

The number of cigarettes exported in 1882 exceeds the number exported
in 1881 by 70 per centJ
In this conuection I call attention to the following paragraph which
appeared in my rex)orts for 1880 and 1881, and renew the recommenda-.
tion contained therein:
It, however, appears t h a t in striking out a portion of section 3385 Revised Statutes,
and substituting fbr the portion stricken out the amendatory i)rovisions of the new
law, the language of t h a t part of section 3385 relied upon as authorizing the exportation of tobacco, snuff, and cigars by railroad cars and other land conversances was,
through inadvertence, not restored. I see no good reasons why the exportation of
these articles under section3385, as amended, should be confined to vessels, and I would
therefore recommend that as early as possible in the next session of Congress the law
be amended so as to clearly provide for the exportation of tobacco, snuff, and cigars by
railroad or other land conveyances.

The large increase since 1878 over the general average of the last t e
years in the quantity of manufactured tobacco and numbers of cigar^
and cigarettes on which taxes have been collected is, in my opinion, t'
be attributed to two causes :
'...
First. The improved condition of the times, whereby all are enkblec[|
to purchase tobacco or cigars who desire to do so.
Second. The supervision exercised over the entire industry and t h
ncreased vigilance of the various ofQcers of the service in detecting an<
^reporting all cases of fraud, and holding every man to a strict compl
ance with the law.

The aggregate amount paid for special-tax stamps by manufacturers
and dealers in tobacco during the last ten years was $20^410,605.25, being an average annual payment of $2,041,060,52.

The quantity of spirits, 89,962,645 gallons, actually remaining in ware-^
house June 30, 1882, is the quantity as shown by the original gauge of
each package.
The quantity of spirits withdrawn froin distillery waiiehouses for
exportation during the year was 8,092,725 gallons.
DISTILLED SPIRITS ALLOWED FOR LOSS BY LEAKAGE OR EVAPORATION IN WAREHOUSES.
The quantity of spirits, 1,231,336 gallons, reported in the preceding
table as lost by leakage or evaporation in warehouse is that portion of
the actual leakage in warehouse from packages withdrawn during the
year which has been allowed in accordance with the provisions of section 17 of the act of May 28, 1880. It is noted that in most cases the
quantity allowed by the law has covered the entire loss, so that the
above quantity is believed to indicate almost the entire loss in warehouse on the spirits withdrawn during the year, except in cases of casualty, and may be safely u^ed as a factor in computing probable losses
on spirits in distillery warehouses.
The leakage allowed during June, 1880, was 75,834 gallons, and the
quantity allowed during the year ended June 30,1881, was 811,466 galIons, making the total allowances to July 1, 1882, 2,118,636 gallons.
In the consideration of a bill to amend the laws relating to the entry
of distilled spirits in distillery warehouses and special bonded warehouses, and the withdrawal of the same therefrom (H. R. 5656, Forty-
COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE.
109
seventh Congress, first session), the question arose as to whether the
allowances for leakage authorized by section 17 of the act of May 28,
1880, were adequate or excessive.
In order to assist in determining the question, a large number of
gangers' reports of withdrawals of spirits from warehouse was examined. The examination showed that under ordinary conditions the
quantity lost was oftener less than the maximum allowance than more
than the maximum allowance. The average losses in cold warehouses
were found to be uniformly less than the maximum allowances. In
heated warehouses, however, the average loss was sometimes found to
be greater. Upon examination of gangers' reports, selected at random,
^covering spirits withdrawn from cold warehouses, it was found that the
^a,verage actual loss as to 164 packages withdrawn within sixty days
after deposit in warehouse, i. e., during the first period named in the
law, was .96 of the maximum allowed by the law^ the loss as to 146
packages withdrawn during "the second I'leriod was .37 of the maximum
allowance; as to 71 packages withdrawn during the third period, the
loss was .53 of the maximum; as to 96 packages withdrawn during the
fourth period, the.loss was .69 of the maximum; as to 131 packagCvS
withdrawn during the fifth peiiod, tbe loss was .78 of the maximum;
as to 128 packages withdrawn during the sixth ])eriod, the loss was .75
of the maximum; as to 99 packages withdrawn during the seventh
period, the loss was .71 of the maximum; as to 94 packages withdrawn
during the eighth period, the loss was .60 of the maximum; as to 179
packages withdrawn during the ninth period, the loss Avas .65 of the
maximum; as to 167 packages withdrawn during the tenth period, the
loss was .68 of the maximum; as to 144packages withdrawn during the
eleventh period, the loss was .61 of the maximum; as to .85 xiackages
withdrawn during the twelfth period, the loss was .66 of the maximum ;
as to 192 packages withdrawn during the thirteenth period, the loss
Avas .70 of the maximum; and as to 421 packages withdrawn during
the fourteenth and last period, the average loss w^as .76 of the maximum.
"
^
Yery few Avithdraw ais. of spirits less than ten months old Avere found
to have been made from heated Avarehouses, and the average losses as
to these few cases did not vary materially from those occurring in cold
Avarehouses. As to 207 packages withdrawn from heated warehouses
during the sixth period named in the law (elcA'cn and twelve months),
the average loss was .87 of the maximum; as to 217 packages Avithdrawn during the scA^enth peiiod, the aA-erage loss was .94 of the maximum; as to 92 packages withdraAAni during the eighth period, the average loss was .86 of the maximum; as to 23 packages withdraAvn during
the ninth period, the average loss Avas 1.00 of the maximum; as to 179
packages Avithdrawn during the tenth period, the aA-erage loss was .80
of fhe maximum; as to 92 packages withdraAvn during the eleventh
period, the average loss Avas .87 of the maximum; as to 43 packages
withdrawn during the twelfth period, the average loss was .81 of the
maximum; as to 43 packages withdraAvn during the thirteenth period,
the average loss Avas .90 of the maximum; and as to 379 packages withdrawn during the fourteenth period, the average loss -was .91 of the
maximum allowed by laAv.

In connection with the foregoing statement I have to renew the recommeindation made in niy previous reports (1880, 1881), that section 3244,
Rev. Stat., be /SO amended as to include distilling worms belonging to
stills manufactured for export, which, like stills, are subject to a tax
of $20 each. Also, that an appropriation be made for the payment of
drawback on articles exported under said section 3244, Eev. Stat. While
a number of claims covering stills have been allowed by this office
during the past three years, and by the authority conferred by section
3244, yet the claimants in such cases have been unable to recover the
amount of drawback so awarded them by this office, in consequence of
the failure of Congress to make the necessary appropriation. While the
125

amounts due these claimants are not large, the promise made by the
law to this class of tax-payers should, nevertheless, be recleemed, and
I urgently call attention to this matter, in order tha^t the payment of
these claims may be provided for,

The foregoing table shows that a decrease has occurred in the assessments of the following taxes as compared with the year ended June 30,
1881, viz:
On circulation of banks and others.
On fermented liquors removed from brewery unstamped, and on tobacco, snufif, and cigar^removed from manufactory in like manner.
COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE.
129
On legacies and successions, and on incomes and dividends.
The reduction in the ainount assessed on circulation, which has.been
principally the ten per (^eiitum tax, on notes issued by manufacturing
establishments and used for circulation, shows how nearly this kind ofcurrency has been supplanted b.y the legal money ofthe country. The small
amount of only $1,921.81 was assessed last year against $10,788.02 in the
previous fiscal year. It may be also stated that nearly all such notes on
which the tax was assessed have already been withdrawn from circulation.
The reduction of taxes assessed on fermented liquors and tobacco,
snuff, and cigars, removed from the place of manufacture unstamped, indicates a better observance of the law and regulations governing the
taxation of these articles.
The reduction ofthe tax assessed on legacies and siicicessions and on
income and dividends is owing to the increased lapse of time sinc^ the
repeal of the laws subjecting these objects to internal revenue taxation
and to the fact that those taxes have been almost entirely collected.
The most remarkable increase exhibited in the above table is that of
taxes assessed on the capital and deposits of banks, bankers, and savings
institutions. The amount thus assessed was $5,222,012.40 against
$3,955,183.20 of the year previous, showing an increase of $1,266,829.20.
As stated in my last annualreport, it had become known that several
banks in the larger cities tiad, by misinterpretation of the law, understated
in former reports the aniount of their capital and deposits subject to
tax. Investigations of these cases led to the discovery that such taxes,
amounting to $722,705, were due the United States.
Following up this discovery a circular letter Wds addressed in October,
1881, to each collector, requiring him to request from all banks in his
district a re-examination of their former returns and to report as to their
liability to additional taxation.
This request having been generally complied with, and voluntary additional returns made by the banks, assessments amminting to $460,676.79
were made last year on this account. This amount, added to that previously ascertained, gives a sum of $1,183,381.79 so far assessed as tax
due from previous years. In addition thereto, an ainount of $25,546.22
was recovered in compromise which was not assessed. The total tax so
far recovered by the government is therefore $1,205,928.01.
Several cases have not yet been fully investigated and determinedupon; it is therefore likely that some further and perhaps very heavy
assessments will result therefrom.
Deducting, however, the above $460,676,79 assessed as back taxes
from the total aniount assessed on capital and deposits last fiscal year,
it still leaves the large amount of $4,761,335.61 assessed against the
banking business of last fiscal year, showing an increase over the previous one of $806,152.41. Explanation of this fact is found in-the enormous growth of the wealth of the country,- the total average capital and
deposits emplo3^ed and held by banks and bankers other than national
banks last 3^ear being $1,955,190,686, an increase of $256,100,308 over
the previous year.
In explanation of the increase of tax assessed on deficiencies in the
production of distilled spirits and on excess of materials used in such
production, it may be stated that most of these assessments cover the
unusually large production of distilled spirits in the year ended June 30,
1881. This also may be said in regard to the increased amount assessed
on distilled spirits fraudulently removed or seized. A great number of
distillers, who formerly carried on an illicit business, have recently

submitted to the law, have been regularly registered, and their shortcomings are now ascertained and assessed.
.Of the amount reported as assessments of penalties, the larger proportion consisted of 100 per centum penalties assessed against banks
under a decision of the "tlnited States circuit court for the southern
district of JSTew York (German Savings Bank t\ Joseph Archbold, collector), for erroneous returns made. This decision having been reversed
by the United States Supreme Court, the larger part' of these assessinents have been or will be abated.

. The capital of the 2,239 national banks in operation on July 1, 1882,
as will be seen by a table in the Appendix,^ was $477,184,390, iiot including surplus, which fund at that date amounted to more than 131 mill
ions of dollars; Avhile the average capital of all the State banks, private
bankers, and savings-banks, for the six months ending May 31, 1882, '
was but $234,929,976. The latter amount is less than t.wo-fifchs of tlie

EXTENSION OF T H E CORPOEATE iEXISTENCE OF NATIONAL BANKS.
Section 11 of the national-bank, act of February 25, 1863, })rovides
that—
Every association formed pursuant to the provisions of this act may make 'aud use
a comnion seal, and shall have- succession by the name desiguated in the articles of
associatiou, and for the period liniited thereiu, not, however,.exceeding tweuty y e a r s '
from the passage of this acfc.
Ninety-eight national banks organized under this act were entitled,
under their organization papers, to continue for nineteen years only,
and the corporate existence of 307 other banks will expire on or before
the close of business on February 24, next.
The Comptroller recommended in his last report:—
That au act be passed during the present sessiou, autboriziug any natioual bank,
with the approval of the Comptroller, at any time within tvvo years prior to the date
o f t h e expiration of its corporate existence, t o . extend its period of succession for
twenty years, by amending its articles of associatiou. The bill may provide t h a t
such amendments must be authorized by the votes of shareholders owning notless
than two-thirds of. the capital of the associatiou, the amendment to be eertiiied to
the Comptroller of the Currencj^ by the president or cashier, verified by the seal of
t h e association", and nofc to be valid until the Comptroller's approval thereof shall
have been obtained, and he shall have given to the association a certificate a thorizing it to continue its busiuess uiider such extension. Resjponsibility l(4r the extension of the corporate existence of the banks will thus, in a measure, rest wiih the
Comptroller; aud he can require such an examination of their aifairs to be made prior to
granting the extension, as may seem to him proper, in order to ascertain if the capital
stock, is intact, and all the assets ofthe bauk in a satisfiicfcbry conditLon. * * . *

REPORT ON T H E FINANCES. *
"
'
If, for any reason, the legislation herein proposed shall not be favorably considered
by.Congress, the bauks can still, under the present laws, renew their existence if they
so desire; and in the abseuce of prohibitory legislation many of them undoubtedly
will, on the expiration of their present chart.ers, organize new associations, Avith nearly
tbe same stockholders as before, and will then apply for and obtain from the Comptroller certificates authorizing them to continue busiuess for twenty years from the
respective dates of their new organization certificates. Such a course of proeedu're
will be perfectly legal, and, indeed,.under the existing laws, the Comptroller has no
discretionary poA^er in the matter, but must necessarily sanction the organization, or
reorganization, ot* such associatious as shall.have conformed in all respects.to the
legal requirements.
The passage, however, of a geueral act directly authorizing an extension ofthe corporate existence of associations whose charters are about to expire would, in many
instances, reliove the banks from embarrassment. As the law now stands, if the
shareholders of an association are all agreed, the process of reorganization is simple;
but if any of the shareholders object to such reorganization, they are entitled to a complete liquidation ot the bank's atfairs, and to aj^.?ro rata distribution of all its assets,
including its surplus fuud. In many instances executors and administrators of estates
hold national-bank stock iurtrust; and while they might prefer to retain their iuterests in the association which issued the stock, tbey would perhaps have no authority
to subscribe for stock in the new orgauizations. While, therefore, fche legislation
asked for is not absoluu^ly essential, yet its passage at an early day would be a great
convtinience to many, of the national banks, and especially so to the class last referred to.
Some doubts having been expressed in reference to the right of the
shareholders of national banks whose corporate existence had expired
to organize new associations with the same names as those which had
just expired, the opinion of the Attorney-General was requested on this
point, and on the 23d of February, 1882, an opinion was given, in which
he said:
The present national banking laws do not forbid the stockholders of an expiring
corporation from organizing a new banking aissociation, uor from assuming the name
of the old corporation, with the ai^proval of the Comptroller of the Currency, and, in
the absence of any prohibition to t h a t effect, no legal obstacle to the formation of- a
new association by such stockholders, aud the adoption of the name of the old association, would, in my ox>inion, exist.
He also said:
-
I do not know of anything to prevent a national bankiug associatiou, upon the expiration of the period limited for its duration, from being converted into a Sfcate bank
under the laws of the State, provided ifc has liquidated its affairs agreeably to the laws
of Congress; nor after ifc has thus become a Sfcate bank, to prevent such bank from
being converted back into a national bauking association under section 5154 of the
Revised Statutes, aud adopting fche name of the expired corporation, vs^ith tlie approval of the Comptroller of tlie Curreucy. To enable a State bauk so to reconvert
itself into, a nationalbanking association, authority from the State is not necessary.*"
In conf(irniity with tliis opinion, iiftj^ banks have been organized to
succeed other, institutions whose corporate existence has expired and
which had previously given notice of liquidation. These banks have
in most cases been organized with the same title as that of the banks
which had been placed in liquidation and by the same stockholders.
Soon after the assembling of the present Congress a bill was introduced forthe extension of the corporate existence of national banks,
embodying the recommendations of the Comptroller. I t was subsequently reported to the House from the committee with important amendments, and, after continued discussion, passed on May 30,1882, by a vote
ot 125 to 67.t The bill was amended in the Senate in many particulars,
and passed that body on June 22, 1882, by a vote of 34 to 14^ aud was
siibsequeatly passed in the House July 10, upon the report of the con-

ference committee, yeas 110, nays 79, not voting 101,* and received the
approval of the President on July 12, 1882.
The act provides for the extension of the corporate existence of all •
hational banks for twenty years by amending their articles of association, which amendment shall be authorized by the consent in writing of shareholders owning not less than two-thirds of the capital
stock of 4;he association. It provides that the Comptroller, upon receipt
ofthe application of the bank aiid the amendment certiiS^ed by the association, shall cause a special examination to be madfe to determine its
condition, and authorizes him to grant his certificate for the proposed
extension, if the condition of the association is found to be satisfactory.
It provides that any shareholder not assenting to the amendment of the
articles of association may give notice in writing to the directors, within
thirty days of the date of the certiticate of approval of the Comptroller,
that he desires to withdraw from said association, in which case he is
entitled in accordance with the method provided in. the act to receive
from said association the yalue of the shares; that in the organization
of any association intended to replace any existing banking association
and retaining the name thereof, holders of stock in the expiring association shail be entitled to preference inthe allotment of the shares of
the liew bank in proportion to the number of shares held by them respectively in the expiring association ; that the circulating notes of the
association extending its period of succession, which were issued to it
IDrevious to such extension, shall be retired by redemption at the Treasnry; that at the end of three years from the date of such extension
lawful money shall be deposited by the banlc with the Treasurer for the
redemption of the circulation then outstanding; that any gain that
may arise from the'failure to present such circulating notes for redemption shall enure to the benetit of the United States; that new notes shall
be issued to the banks thus extending, bearing such devices as shall
make them readily distinguishable from those previously issued and that
national banks whose corporate existence has expired or shall hereafter
expire, which do not avail themselves of the privilege of extension, shall
give notice of liquidation and deposit lawful raoney for the retirement
of their circulating, notes as required by law. .It also provides for the
extension of the franchise of expiring associations for the sole purpose
of liquidation until their aftairs are tinally closed. Thr other provisions of the act in reference to national bank's are general in their character and do not exclusively apply to banks whose corporate existence
is extended by its provisions.
Immediately upon the passage of this act appropriate blanks were
prepared for the use of those banks whose corporate existence was
about to expire, and new circulating notes w^ere subsequently issued to
such institutions as conformed to the law. The note ofthe denomination of tive dollars has for its vignette the portrait of the late President
Garfield. The faces of the notes of other denominations are similar to
those previously issued, bnt all the new^ notes have, as a distinctive
feature, the charter number engraved six difierent times in the border^
so that the name of the bank issuing the note may be ascertained from
fragments thereof. The charter number of each bank is also, printed
conspicuously in the center of the reverse Or back of each note. The
brown and green colors of the back of the new notes are said to be a
protection against the arts of the photographer and counterfeiter, and

are printed upon the neAv distinctive paper AA-hich has given general
satisfaction.
Under the act of July 12, 1882, 30 banks have already extended their
corporate existence, and nearly all of the banks which were organized
under the act of February 25, 1863, have already given notice of their
intention^ to take advantage of the act. The total number of banks
whose corporate existence either has expired, or w^oiild have expired if
no action had been taken by their stockholders, is 86, having a capital
of $18,877,50.0, and surplus of $6,994,854, and circulation of $12,840,010.
Of these 50 were placed in liquidation by their stockholders previous
to the date of the exiDiration of their corporate existence, and all but
two befare the passage of the act of July 12, 1882. The stockholders
of 45 of these liquidating banks organized new associations with the
same name; those of four organized new associations with difierent
nameis, and those of one did not perfect any new organization. The
corporate existence of six of the S6 banks first mentioned expired*
without having been previously put into liquidation. The united stockholders of three of these banks perfected new organizations vwith the
same name, and in the case of two others a portion of the stockholders
organized new associations with difierent names, while those of one took
no action. The stockholders of the remaining 30 of the 86 banks mentioned, which are all of the. banks whose corporate existence has expired since the passage of the act of July 12,1882, have extended under
this act.
The number of national banks yet in operation at the date of this report, organized under the act of February 25,1863, is 307, and their corporate existence will expire on the following dates :

Section 8 of theact of June 3, 1864, provides that each associationShall have power to adopt a corporate seal, and shall have succession by the name
designated in its organization certificate, ior the period of twenty years from its organization, unless sooner dissolved accordiug to the provisions of its articles of association, or by the act of its shareholders owning two-thirds of its stock, or unless the
franchise s h a l l b e forfeited by a violation of this act.
Under the previous act, banking associations were entitled to succession for twenty.years from the date of the passage of the law • but under
the act of 1864, each association was entitled to an existence of twenty
years from the~ date of its organization certificate. The Merchants' National Bank of Boston was^ the first association to organize under the
act of June 3, 1864, and its organization was followed by the conversion
of 28 other banks in the city of Boston and 22 in the city of Philadelphia during the same year, and by the conversion of 38 banks in the
city of ISTew York during the year 1865.
The provisions of the act of July 12, 1882, relating to the extension of
the corporate existence of national banking associations, have proxed to
be well adapted to the purpose for which they were intended. They are
simple in form and appear to be readily understood by the banks.
* These banks were, however, revived for purpose of liquidation by Jiectiou 7 o f t h e
act of Jaily 12, 1882.

One advantage in extending the corporate existence of associations
under this law, over the only method possible previous to its passage,
is in the retention of the surplus fund.
Thus, in the case of the fifty-four banks which have been liquidated,
either under sections 5220 and 5221, or.under section 7 of the act of
July 12, 1882, by their stockholders, in order to organize new associa-'.
tions, the surplus was reduced from $5,540,067 to $2,559,252.
The aggregate surplus of the thirty banks extending their existence
under the act of July 12, 1882, has slightly increased.

which is four hundred and thirt^^-three millions in excess of the amount
held on January 1, 1879, and one hundred and eighty-six millions in
excess of the amount held two years ago—on November 1, 1880. The
gain in gold coin since the resumption of specie payments has been two
hundred and eighty-eight millions, and in gold and silver coin three
hundred and ninety-four millions. The increase in national bank notes
has been nearl}^ thirty-nine millions.
.
o
No change has been made in the amount of legal-tender notes outstanding. I t remains at $346,681,016, which was the amount outstanding at the date of the passage of the act of May 31, 1878, which prohibited any further reduction of the volume of these notes.
The act of January 14, 1875, required the Secretary of the Treasury
on and after January 1, 1879, to redeem in coin these notes, on their
presentation at the office of the Assistant Treasurer in the city of New
York, in sums of not less than fifty dollars. In order that he miglit always
be prepared to do this, he was ''authorized to use any surplus revenue
from time to time, in the Treasury not otherwise appropriated, and toissue, sell, and dispose of, at not less than par, in coin,''any of the five,
four and a half, and four per cent, bonds authorized by the act of July
14, 1870. This act is still in force, and gives the Secretary unlimited
power with which to provide for the redemption in coin of the legal-tender notes. He is thus enabled, so long as the credit of the government
continues good, to check, by the sale of United States bonds, any exportation of coin which might endanger the redemption of IJnited States
legal-tender notes.
These notes were issued at a time when the expenditiiries of the
government were in excess of its revenue. Its receipts now so largely
exceed its expenditures that more than 148 millions of the public debt
was paid during the past year. The only reason that can be advanced
iov the increase of these issues, would be that t h e j may be substituted
for other forms of public debt, and the only method by which they can
now be disbursed is in payment of United States bonds, at a time when
the bonds are being paid from the surplus revenue at a rate unprecedented in the history of nations. It is evident that whatever difierence
of opinion may have heretofore existed upon the subject, so long as the
revenue shall continue to supply more money than is needed for expenditures, there can be no sufficient reason for the authorization by Congress of an increase of these notes.
. The act of July 12, 1882, has again inaugurated the policy of issuing
gold certificates. These substitutes for coin are hereafter to be issued
against deposits of coin in the Treasury, and, together with certificates
for silver deposited in like manner, are authorized to be included in the
reserves of the banks, and to be used as clearing-house certificates in
the citios where clearing-houses are established. They will not increase
the amount of the currency in the country, but, by saving the cost of
transporting specie from pne point to another, will render the stock of
specie more available for use by the banks and the people.
TheComptroller, in his report for 1881, in elaborate tables giving the
receipts of banks upon two difierent days, showed that the propol'tion
of money required for the transaction of business throughout the whole
country was about five per cent, of the total receipts, the remaining
ninety-five per cent, being in checks and drafts. There has been during the current year an increase of 171 in the riumber of national banks
in operation, and during the three preceding years the increase was 314.
During the curi:ent year 36 additional State banks and 353 private bankers have commenced business. The rapid increase in these places of

deposit brings into use a larger number ofthe small.checks of depositors, and largely diminishes the .use of the circulating medium. These
depositories, and the amount of capital employed in banking, notwithstanding the excessive taxation imposed upon this business, nearly
keep pace with the advance in the population and wealth of the country 'y but the increase in the receipts and payment of banks and bankers, made by checks and drafts, shows the absurdity of the theory that
the money requiied for business purposes, should bear a fixed proportion to the population or to the wealth of the country.
The same causes which have operated to bring about a rapid reduction of the public debt have also tended to increase the circulating medium. The large imports of coin, in excess of exports, together with
the products of the mines, have filled the channels of circulation-. The
circulation during the past year has undoubtedly been much larger than
at any period since the organization of the government. The per capita
of circulation is larger, and it is probable that its proportion to wealth
is greater than at any previous time.* It is undoubtedly large enough
to supply the legitimate demands of business; and it is probable that
the addition to the coin of the country, since the resumption of specie
payments, has been in advance of such demands. There has been no
complaint of scarcity of money which cannot probably be traced to
those engaged in speculative business, and however great the aggregate of the circulating medium may become, complaints of scarcity will
always be heard from those who desire a rise in prices.
No other nation economises theuse of its circulating medium, as does
this,, and it is probable that but a slight annual increase in the amount
ofnational bank notes outstanding will hereafter be required, provided
that the exports of coin are not greatly in excess of imports, and the
receipts from our increasing revenue, in excess of the requisite reserve,
are kejit in circulation and not hoarded in the Treasury.
The interest-bearing bonded debt of the United States has beeu
rapidly reduced since 1869, at which time the funding of the miscellaneous obligations of the government had been successfully accomplished. The reduction of this debt during the twelve years ending
June 30, 1881, hus been more than six hundred and forty-eight millions
($648,403,668) and the amount of interest paid morethan one thousand
two hundred and seventy millions ($1,270,596,784); the average annual
payment of the principal being $54,033,639, and of interest, $105,883,065.
The annual average reduction in the interest-bearing debt during the
last three years, ending November 1, has been $126,295,816. The reduction during the past year was $148,648,550.
The successful refunding of the hve and six per cents as they matured,
at first into four and four and one-half per cents, and subsequently into
three aiid one-half per cents, and during the last year into three per
cents, together with the rapid reduction of the debt, has had the efiect
of renewing the discussion as to the permanency of the national banking
system, and its*ability uiider existing laws to supply the additional circulation which may be hereafter annually required. The banks hold 40
millions of three and one-half per cents, and nearly 180 millions of three
per cents as security for their circulation. If the debt should hereafter
continue to be reduced at the same rate as during the last year, all of
these bonds will be called for payment in less than three years, and it
will be necessary for the banks holding such called bonds, either to deposit lawful money for the purpose of retiring two hundred millions of
their circulation, or to purchase four or four and one-half per cents, or

,Many plans have beem suggested fbr the purpose of supplying the
deficiency in bank circulation, which it is probable will arise as these
bonds are paid.
The systems of banking in operation previous to the establishment
of the national banking system, and particularly those known as the
'' charter'' and '' safety-fund" systems, have been brought forward for
discussion, and opinions have been expressed that under the general
restrictions of the national banking system, or with increased limitations, it would be advisable for Congress to authorize the issue of circulating notes based upon the capital,.the assets, and the individual liability of stockholders, without requiring, as heretofore, the actual deposit
of securities in the Treasury for such issues. It has been suggested if
the circulation issued be considerably less than the actual capital paid
up, and if the bill holder be entitled to a first lien upon all the assets of
the bank, and to the amount which maybe collected upon the individual
liability of the shareholder, that the people would be abundantly secure
from any loss upon the circulation ^o issued by the banks. As supplementary to this proposition, it has also been suggested that the banks
be required to hold not less than the minimum amount of bonds now
provided by law, which is estimated not to exceed 100 millions of dollars, and that in addition they be required to deposit ten per cent, upon
their capital in coin with the Treasurer as a safety fund, and that they
shall continue to receive each other's notes in payment of obligations
due them.
It is not probable that the stockholders of those banks which do
' not desire to issue circulation, would be willing to continue business
upon the condition that they should contrib'ite so large an amount to a
fund intended to insure the public against the issues of,fraudulent or
badlyTUianaged institutions. It is suggested, however, that the proposition would be improved if banks desiring to issue circulation be required to contribute to such a fund a percentage upon the circulation
issued, instead of a percentage upon capital. If this fund, amounting
to, say, 30 millions, be held in United States three per cent, bonds instead
of coin, and the losses from the circulation of insolvent banks be small,
the interest, in the course of a few years, if retained as proposed, would
amount to a considerable sum. The large fund oh deposit in the Treasury for the purpose of redeeming the notes of ntational banks retiring circulation now amounts to more than 38 millions. If it should be thought
expedient to invest a considerable portion of this fund in three per cents^
thus releasing it from the Treasury, the income might also be added to the
safety fund. The gain resulting from the failure on the part of the public, to present for redemption national bank notes which are being retired
by aCn act of the present Congress, accrues to the benefit of the government, and it is estimated will amount to not less than from three to five
millions during each, twenty years. This gain might also properly be
included in the proposed safety fund, and in the course, of a few years
these funds, by reinvestment, would increase to so large an amount,
that the securities required t o ' b e deposited by the banks could be
largely diminished.
The foregoing propositions have no precedents in any form of general
legislation heretofore known in this country. Circulation authorized
upon similar plans has heretofore been issued to banks which have been
specially chartered, and not to banks organized under a general law.
Nearly every State in theUnion has had its experience in authoriziug

the issue of bauk notes, based exclusively upon the capital and assets
of the banks issuing the same; and many States have required the accumulation of a safety fund for the protection of the public from unsecured and uncurrent bank notes. In most cases circulation was
iiuthorized to be issued by such banks equal to the capital; sometimes
the amount issued was less; sometimes it largely exceeded the capital.
The Suffolk system in the New England States, which was perhaps
as good a system as could be desired to protect a bank circulation not
secured by bonds, by a prompt and vigorous redemption of the notes,
kept them in a healthy state, but the annual losses upon bank circulation, even in the New England States, up to the time of the organization of the national banking system, were by no means inconsiderable.
Notwithstanding the restrictions then existing, banks of circulation were
organized with but little capital paid in, and notes, either worthless or
irredeemable, were placed in circulation atpoints remote from the places
of issue. In New York under the safety fund system, and jirevious
thereto, losses to the bill holders frequently occurred, and in other States,
almost without exception, such losses were large, and have usually been
estimated to have been, in the aggreg^ate, not less than five per cent,
annually of the whole amount outstanding. It is true that there are
in England, Ireland, and Scotland 119 private and joint-stock banks,
with many branches, which are authorized, to issue circulation based
upon 'their capital, but their authorized circulation is only about 100
millions of dollars. Thirty-five banks, with numerous branches in the
Dominion of Canada, are also authorized to issue circulation in a similar
manner, but the total circulation of these banks does not exceed 35
millions. Most of these are banks which have been in existence for
many years, and were organized under speciajl charters, and the liability
of the shareholders in many cases, particularly in G-reat Britain, is
unlimited.
= ,
No State or nation has ever authorized the organization of banks
under a general banking law, with the right to issue circulating notes
proportionate to capital, except under a restriction requiring the deposit with the government of securities as the basis for the issue of such
notes. Banks in this and in other countries, which have been authorized
to issue circulating notes without security, have been those organized
under special charters, and in granting such charters the nieans and
character pf the applicants and proposed stockholders are subject to
investigation by committees and legislators. Propositions for the issue
of circulation without the fullest security cannot be too carefully considered. The security of the national-bank note under the present system is perfect. In twenty years not a single bank note has failed to
be redeemed at its face value. Banks organized under a general law,
located so often at great distances from commercial centers, render a
security for circulation of uniform and positive value an absolute necessity. It is evident that the authorizing of more than three thousand
banks, under a general or free banking law, to issue circulation without
security, located in a country having such extensive territory as our
own, would result disastrously.
Under the present banking system it is difficult in all cases to prevent the organization of banks with deficient capital, but if such banks
are organized, at least no injury can hapiien from the issue of their circulating notes. The failure to pay the capital is almost certain soon
to be ascertained, when such associations can be summarily closed, or
required to make good the deficiency. If under the proposed system,
banks should be organized with deficient capital and receive circulOi.10 F

tion, an irreparable injury would be accomplished before the worthless character of the assets could be ascertained. It would be practically impossible for any government officer to prevent unprincipled
jQen from organizing and controlling such associations for the purpose
of benefiting themselves at the expense of the holders of their circulating notes.
There are in this country more than a thousand State banks and trust
companies, and nearly thirty-four hundred private bankers. The temptation would be strong, on the part of these corporations and individuals, to organize banks of circulation, if circulation could be obtained
without depositing bonds as security therefor. The value of the different
notes issued would depend upon the management of the bank and character and standing of the different stockholders. Many notes w^ould be
at a discount in exchange for coin, and the failure of one bank to pay
its notes, would throw discredit upon the whole volume of bank circulation and the system under which such banks ^vrre organized. If the
issue of circulation were confined to a few banks, organized by men of
character, integrity, and means, such associations would be characterized as a monopoly. Even if corporations are organized upon the condition that all should contribute a percentage of the circulation to a
safety fund for the protection of the aggregate circulation, there is
danger that the issues of fraudulent or badly-managed banks Vould
soon: consume the safety fund, and it is evident that the circulation
would be paid, if at all, at the expense of the depositor, who would be,
in some cases, stripped of the dividends Avhich under existing laws are
distributed to unfortunate creditors.
Under tlie national banking system, it is provided that the circulation issued shall first be paid from the proceeds of the bonds deposited
to secure the same. The proceeds of the remaining assets are distrib-„
uted pro rata among the creditors. Eighty-seven national banks, in all
having an aggregate capital of $19,262,600, have failed during the last
twenty years, and since the organization of the system. The amount
of circulation to which these banks were entitled under existing laws,
namely, ninety per cent, upon capital, is $17,336,340, which is a less
amount in the aggregate than the amount of dividends which will have
been paid to the creditors of these insolvent institutions. Forty-four
of these banks, having a capital of $10,094,000, would each have paid
in full their,circulation, if ninety per cent, had been issued upon their
capital, from the i)roceeds of their assets, and would also have paid
small dividends to their depositors. The remaining forty-three insolvent banks, having a capital of $9,168,600, would in the aggregate
have paid, it is estimated, seventy-five per cent, only, from the avails of
their assets upon the circulation authorized; entailing a loss upon the
bill-holders of over $2,000,000, and leaving no assets whatever for the
benefit of the depositors, whose claims are $9,043,605, and upon which
dividends will be paid averaging, it is estimated, sixty-eight per cent.
While these forty-three banks would in the aggregate have paid seventyfive per cent, to the bill-holders, about one-half of this number would
have paid on the average from the avails of their assets not exceedingfifty per cent, ofthe amount of their circulating notes.
The losses which the holders of the notes of insolvent banks would
have experienced underthe national banking system, if securities had
not been required to have been deposited, would have been small in comparison with the whole circulation. But the fact that such losses would
have occurred in so many banks, and that, too, at the expense of the depositors under a system with so many safeguards and restrictions, is

an argument from experience against any proposition to issue notes for
©irculation under any general system, without requiring suffident security, which cannot easily be answered.
if the public debt is to be paid hereafter as rapidly as during the past
three years, all of the interest-bearing bonds will soon be surrendered
and canceled, and there is danger that the bank circulation willbe so rapidly retired as to cause a contraction of the currency which will afiect the
price of commodities and create embarrassments in business; but there
is now no such pressing necessity for a speedy payment of the public
debt as there is for the reduction of the redundant revenue. I t is believed that Congress will soon provide for so large a reduction ofthe
revenue that a sufficient amount of bonds w^ill remain for the security of
the bank circulation.
The national banks held, on November 1, bonds for circulation, not
payable at the pleasure of the government, as follows:

These bonds, including the Pacific sixes, amount to nearly 1,054
millions, and are abundantly sufficient as a basis for banking during
the next twenty years. In fact, one-fourth of this debt, exclusive of the
142 millions held by the banks, is sufficient to supply a basis for the bank
notes now outstanding. The law provides that any bank may reduce
the amount of its bonds held as security for circulation, to an amount
not less than $50,000, and, by an act of the present Congress, banks
having a capital of $150,000 or less can reduce their bonds to a minimum of one-fourth of their capital. The aggregate amount of bank circulation outstanding has not been reduced for a series of years, as may
be seen from the following table, which gives the total amount of the
national bank circulation outstanding on the 1st of June and 1st of November of each year since 1873:

which includes the notes of the insolvent banks, of those in voluntary
liquidati(^i, and of those which have deposited lawful money for the purpose of reducing their circulation.
The circulation of the banks in operation during the present year
has, however, by the payment of the bonds held as security and the
voiuntary retirement of bank notes, been reduced from $320,200,069 to
$314,721,215, as will be seen from the table below, which gives, by geographical divisions, the amount of notes outstanding of the banks in

The reduction from January 1 to July 1 of the present year was still
greater, and amounted to more than 16 millions, but the amount has
again increased, as is usual in the fall season of the year. Banks, during
theyear, have been frequently called upon to surrender their bonds to
the Secretary for payment. In such cases the three and the three and
one-half per cents have usually been substituted or the circulation surrendered. The amount of four and four and one-half per cents held as
security for bank notes have, however, during the year increased more
than 14 millons.
The banks hold, as has been seen, 220 millions of dollars of United
States bonds which are subject to the call of the government, and these
bbnds can be replaced only by other bonds bearing a high premium,
and payable after a fixed date. If these latter bonds are not substituted
for the former, the cifculation of the banks will be reduced about 200
millions.
The profit upon circulation upon the four and four and a half per cent,
bonds, where the rate of interest is six per cent., is not much in excess
of three-fifths of one per cent., and where the rates of interest are above
eight per cent, the profits are nominal, and are not sufficient to induce
the banks to purchase large amounts as security for circulation. Where
the profits are so small there is a serious objection to the investment of
COMPTROLLER OF T.HE CURRENCY.
149'
SO large an amountof capital in premium, which, in the case of four per
cent, bonds, amounts to one-fifth ofthe face value ofthe bonds.
If the whole public debt were reduced to a uniform rate pf three pec
cent., the present high premium, upon bonds would almost entirely disappear, and the volume of circulation would respond more readily to
the demands of business. The temptation to sell such bonds for the
purpose of realizing the premium would no longer remain. A proposition for refunding all the bonds, not payable at the pleasure ofthe
government, into three per cents, was suggested during the last session of Congress. The proposition is that inducements be ofiered to the
holders of the four and four and one-half per cent, bonds to surrender
them to the government, receiving in payment therefor three per cent,
bonds having the same dates of maturity as the bonds which are to be
surrendered. The new three per cent, bonds issued would themselves
bear a small premium, and it is believed that the holders of four per
cents, would consent to such an exchange if accompanied by an offer
of not more than fifteen per cent. j)remium. The amount of the premium upon this class of bonds, saj^ 700 millions, now outstanding at
fifteen per cent, would be 105 millions of dollars, and this premium
could be paid, as the bonds.are surrendered for exchange, from the
surplus revenue of the government,, thus in efiect reducing the debt of
the government .105 millions by a prepayment of .interest which must
be paid at a greater rate each yjcar until their,maturity.^.
,The benefits of .this plan both to the .holder.ancl to tbe/go vernment
are apparent. The holders would.,receive, in the shape of ^fifteen per
cent, premium upon the bonds, a portion of their interestin advance,
which would be available for loans.at rates;greatly exceeding the borrowing power of the 'government,,which is.now less than three per.cent.
The.gpvernment would be enabled by this use of its surplus to save a
portion of the interest which otherwise it would be compelled to pay
hereafter.
The market price of the four per cent, twenty-five-year bonds is now
119.20, which indicates a market estimate of a borrowing rate of interest
of 2.92 per cent, per annum to the goyernment. At.this rate the
present value of one per cent, of interest upon each $100 bond annually
for twenty-five years, relinquished by the holder, is $17.70. If the holder
accepts fifteen dollars as-an equivalent for these twenty-five annual
payments, instead of $17.70—a reduction of $2.70 from the. market
estimate of the value—the government will practically purchase from
the holder of the bond at a four and one-half per cent, rate of interest
instead of at 2.92 per cent. In.other words, the xiresent value of the
twenty-five one dollar annual i)ayments relinquished by the holder, when
computed at the rate of 2.92 per cent, per annum, is worth $17.70; but,
computed at the rate of four and one-half per cent, is worth only $15, a
premium which, it is believed, the holders would be willing to accept;
and if the government be able to invest its surplus revenue at a. rate so
favorable to itself as four and one-half per. cent., there would seem to be
good reason for Congress to provide the necessary legislation for authorizing an arrangement which can also be shown to be of advantage to the
holders of the four per cent, bonds.
One alternative would be to reduce the tax upon circulation to onehalf of one per cent, per annum, and another to amend section 12 ofthe
act of July 12, 1882, so as to authorize the banks, to receive circulation
at the rate of ninety per cent, upon the average current market value of
the bonds forthe six mouths preyious. If the bonds shall decline in
the market, additional bonds may be required to be deposited, or the

interest may be retained by the Treasurer upon notice from the Comptroller to make up the deficiency. Such an amendment has frequently
been suggested, and, in fact, the original national bank act authorized
the issue of circulating notes to the amount of 90 per centum of the
current market value of United States six per cent, bonds deposited,
provided that such 90 per centum was not in excess of the amount of
the bonds at their par value, or in excess of the paid-in capital stock.
That law also provided for the deposit of additional bonds or money upon
their depreciation, or the suspension of payment of interest upon the
bonds held, so long as the depreciation should continue.
It is submitted that the issue of circulation upon four and four ajnd
a half i^er cents at ninet}^ per cent, uxion their current market value,
under a restriction similar to that last mentioned, is eqiiall^^ safe with
the issue of ninety per cent, upon the three per cents now outstanding
at x)ar; or that a reduction of the tax upon circulation to one-half of
one i^ev eent., or to an amount sufficient to reimburse the Treasury for
the whole exxiense of the issue of bank circulation and all expenses incident thereto, is not unreasonable in view of the fact of the large reduction upon the income derived from United States bonds, amounting
to more than two x^er cent, since this tax was imposed.
Either of these plans is feasible and would prevent a sudden contraction of the currency, by bringing into possession of the banks a sufficient
amount of bonds to supply the circulation which is needed, and is certainly greatly to be xireferred to the x^ropositions for a large increase in
legal-tender notes—if such issues were practicable—or to the issue of
bank circulation without a deposit of bond security under restrictions
however stringent.
If, however, it shall be the xiolicy of the government to accumulate
the revenue instead of largely reducing it, thus rendering it necessary
to continue the rapid reduction of the debt even if it is to be purchased
at the x'>rice fixed byT:he holders, it is of the greatest imxiortance that
the basis uxion which the bank currency is issued should be enlarged so
as to include some other form of security besides government credit.
The national banking system has been in operation nearly twenty
years, and may be said to have not yet attained its majority. It is part
of the machinery of the government. Its advantages have been well
tested in good and in evil times, and during the searching and acrimonious discussions of the last ten years, the final result of which has been
the legislation of the present Congress authorizing the extension of the
period of succession of each one of these institutions for twenty years
from the date ofthe exx3iration of its corporate existence. The Comptroller, while he believes it is for the best interests of the government
to continue the national banking system, subject to such improvements
as shall hereafter be authorized by Congress, is after all of oxiinion that
it would be better that the circulation should diminish in volume, than
that the issue should be increased at the risk of placing in the hands
of the poorer classes uncurrent and irredeemable circulation, or of giving to associations organized by unscrupulous men an oxiportunity to
use an excellent systeni of banking for bad purposes.
The national banking system was established with a yiew to uj}root other and evil systems, and nothing but the heroic legislation
of taxing bad issues of circulation out of existence, which was xiassed
in the interests of the government during a great war, could have accomplished this purpose. By increasing the rate of issue ux)ou the
bonds ifiedged by the banks as security for their circulation, or by
reducing the tax upon bank notes, or by a proper refunding ofthe debt,

and reducing the revenue derived in many instances from unjust and
burdensome taxation, the system may continue for twenty-five years,
or until the maturity of the four per cents; but it is far better that the
right to issue notes should be gradually discontinued than that so good
a systeni should be used to bring again ux3on the country the very evils
which were experienced at the time of its organization, twenty years ago.
DISTRIBUTION OF COIN AND P A P E R CURRENCY.
In the reports of the" Comptroller for the three years xu'eceding 1882,
tables have been given showing the amount of coin and currency, and
its distributipn in the Treasury, in the banks, and in the hands of the
Xieople on January 1, 1879, the date of the resumption of specie payments, and on November 1' of that and each succeeding year. These
tables are again presented, the amounts on November 1, 1882, having
been added.
From November 1, 1881, to Novemberl, 1882, the xiroduction of gold
by the mines of the United States is estimated at $43,359,021, and the
amount of gold exported from the country, in excess of the amount imported, has been $36,122,536. The difference, $7,236,485, is the increase
during the year. The Director of the Mint estimates that $2,700,000 of
this amount has been used in the arts, leaving $4,536,485 as ttie increase
in the stock of gold remaining in the country and available for circulation. The total excess of imports of gold,over exxiorts, from the date
of resumption to November 1,1882, has been $161,311,578, and the total
gold product of the mines of the United States for the same period is
•estiinated to have been $147,509,021. This is the first year since 1879
•during which th(3 exportation of gold has exceeded the importation.
During the last two months (September and October, 1882) the imports
have, however, slightly exceeded the exports.
The amount of standard silver dollars coined during theyear has been
$27,657,175, and the total aniount coined up to November 1, 1882, since
the passage of the law of February 28, 1878, authorizing their coinage,
has been $128,329,880.
The following table shows the amount of coin and currency in the
country on January 1, 1879, and on November 1 of thej^ears 1879,1880,
1881, and 1882:

The gold in the Treasury, including bullion in the xirocess of coinage,,
has decreased during the year $19,346,436, and in the banks $15,103,846.
The paper currency ifi the Treasury has increased $3,449,418, and in the
banks $17,557,650. The increase of gold outside of the Treasury and
the banks has been $38,986,757, and the decrease of paxier currency,,
exclusive of silver certificates, $18,617,671. In the foregoing tables

form a portion of the silver coin in the Treasury. The silver certificates
in the hands of the xieople and the banks, at dates corresxionding with
those given in the preceding tables, were as follows:

It will be seen that the amount of these certificates in. circulation has
increased only $6,781,680 during the past year, and if this whole increase
were held outside of the banks, it would not offset the decrease of
$18,617,671 in other forms of paper currency in the hands of the people,
for which coin has been substituted.
As before stated, the total amount of standard silver dollars coined
up to November 1, 1882, was $128,329,880, of which, as shown in
one of the foregoing tables, $92,414,977 was then in the Treasury, although an amount equal to $65,620,450 was represented by certificates
in the hands of the peoxile and the banks, leaving $26,794,527 belonging
to the Treasury. Ofthe $128,329,880 coined, $35,914,903 was therefore
circulating outside of the Treasury in the form of coin, and $65,620,450 in
the form of certificates. The remainder of the silver, $83,994,455, consisted of subsidiar;y coin, trade dollars, and bullion, of which $30,761,935
was in the Treasury, and $53,232,520 was in use in place of the.paper
fractional currency for which it iwas.substituted,.as against $55,955,398
similarly.employed on Noyepiber 1^ 1881.. The. increase of gold and silver coin and paper currency, outside of the Treasury, since the date of
resumption is thus estimated to have been $289,964,414, and the increase
during the year ending November 1, $18,336,612; or, if the amount of
silver certificates in circulation be added, the total increase sinceresumption would be $355,172,504, and during the past year, $25,118,292.
ILLEGAL CERTIFICATION OF CHECKS.
The xiractice of certifying checks had been in use for more than thirty
years, previous t o t h e organization of thenatlonal banking system, anil
at least twenty years previous to the establishmentof the clearing house.
I n the beginning, this certification was not considered as legally binding the bank to pay the check. For many years it had little signification other than as giving clerical information, and the amount of the
check, when certified, was not charged .to the account of the drawer
until it was afterwards presented for payment. Subsequently, after the
year 1854, when the clearing house was organized, it became the custom
to present checks, and also bills receivable or acceptances on the day of
. maturity at the bank where they were made xiayable for certification.
The bills and checks which were certified, were then returned to the
bank messenger who had xiresented them, and on the following morning
were transmitted to the clearing house with other exchanges.
The certification consisted ofthe signature.of the paying teller, Avritten
across the face of the xiaper inside of a stamp bearing the date of the
certification and the title of the bank. This form of certification was
regarded;as a legal obligation of the bank, and :the amount of the check
was charged to the account of the drawer at the date of the^ certification.
If the maker or acceptor of notes or bills was in good standing at. the
bank ^t which it was made xiayable, such bills were not unfrequently
certified, even if the fuU amount Avas not to the credit of the account to
154
REPORT ON THE FINANCES
which it was subsequently charged. Bills or checks are usually presented for certification during the first business hours of the day, and
the deposits of merchants and brokers are not usually made until the
later hours of the day. The officers of the bank, who know the usual
habits of their dealers in making their deposits, as well as their responsibility, do not hesitate to assume the payment of checks or drafts
which they feel assured will be x^'ovided for before the exchanges of
the clearing house are received. If these certifications were confined to
mercantile and commercial transactions, little objection would have
been raised to the practice, and it is not probable that there would have
been any legislation xirohibiting it. I t would certainly seem to be advisable to leave to the discretion of a bank the right to accexit bills
drawn by correspondents at a distance, or by merchants at hom.e, whose
standing is beyond question, and whose deficiency in the account is
kuown to arise from delay in receiving remittances or inaking deposits.
A refusal to certify or pay under such circumstances would be likely to
subject the bank to the loss of the accounts of its most valuable dealers.
Such legitimate certifications in mercantile or commercial transactions
are for comxiaratively small amounts, and would not attract attention
as a large item in the abstracts of the condition of the banks in the city
of New York, to which this xnactice is chiefly confined.
The large use of these instruments by which the banks in efiect
guarantee the contracts of stock-brokers with their customers has
grown to be a great abuse during thepast few years, and cannot be defended upon any correct xirinciple^of banking. This business is chiefiy
done by nine or ten national banks, although other banks, organized
under State laws as well as national, certify similar checks for considerable amounts.
Section 5208 of the Eevised Statutes makes it—
Unlawful for any officer, clerk or agent of any national banking association to certify any check drawn nx3on the association, unless the person or company drawiijg the check has on deposit with the association, at the time such 'check is certified,
an amonnt of money equal to the amount specified in such check.
There are many methods of evading this laAv. If certification is
required iu excess of the amount on deposit a demand note is made,
and the amount thereof is entered to the credit of the broker desiring
the accommodation; or his check upon another bank is received without certification, and a temxiorary credit entered upon his account, and
these temporaiy credits are canceled at the close of business when the
acccount has been made good. Brokers asking for such over-certifications keexi large balances to their credit, on which the bank pays no
interest. Certification is made without charge, the bank receiving its
eompensation in the large deposits A hich stand to thecredit of the
V
broker. The banks justify the practice uxion the ground that it is of
great convenience to the community, and that stock transactions, xoarticulaiiy, could not be carried on without some such arrangement. They
insist that for manj^ years only trifling losses ha-A^e arisen from the
Xiractice—very much less than the losses incurred by them in ordinary
discounts.
Section 13 of the act of July 12, 1882, proAades :
That any officer, clerk, or agent of any national-banking association who shall
willfully violate the xirovisions of an act entitled "An act in reference to certifying
checks by national banks," axDX^i'OA^ed March third, eighteen himdred and sixty-nine,
being section fifty-two hundred and eight of the Revised Statutes ofthe United States,
or who shall resort to any device, or receive any fictitious obligation, direct or collateral, in order to CA^ade the x'>roAnsions thereof, or who shall certify cliecks before the
COMPTROLLER OF THE CURRENCY.
155
amount thereof shall have been regularly entered to the credit of the dealer upon the
books of the banking association, shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor, and shall,
on conviction thereof in any circuit ur district court of the United States, be fined not
raore than five thousand dollars, or shall be imx)risoned not more than five years, or
both, in the discretion of the court.
Previous to the xiassage of this act those national banks which are
accustomed to make large advances to brokers for stock transactions
certified checks for large amounts under evasions of the law, or such
arrangements or agreements as AA^ere deemed by them not to be in conflict with section 5208 of the EcAnsed Statutes. The latter act seems to
have been xiassed for the purpose of preventing the evasions of the preA'ious law to which reference has been made. The language of the
section is: ^' Or who shall resort to any dcA^ce or receive any fictitious
obligation, direct or collateral, in order to evade the x:)rovisions thereof"
Since the xiassage of this act the banks have accepted checks which.
haA^e been drawn upon them instead of certifying them, and have assumed that such accexitance is not in violation of law. In some cases
these accex^tances are made payable through the clearing house, the
effect of which form of acceptance is that such checks are payable uxion
the following day; in other cases the acceptance is made without any
condition as to the mode of its xiayment. The banks claim that they
have xiower to accept checks under the third and scA^enth paragraphs of
section 5136 of the Eevised Statutes. The former authorizes national
banks "- to make contracts," and thelatter xiroA^des forthe ''exercise of
all such incidental powers as shall be necessary to carry on the business
of banking." It is also claimed that section 5209 of the EcA'-ised Statutes, which xirovides that it shall be a misdemeanor for an officer of a
bank to make acceptances without xiroper authority, by implication authorizes accexitances to be made with the authority of the directors, and
that the act of July 12, 1882, does not, in plain terms, xirohibit such acceptance. ^Tlie Comptroller being in doubt in reference to the x^oper
construction of the section, prepared a letter containing the following
questions, Avhich, at his request, Avas submitted by the Secretary to the
Attorney-General for his opinion :
Has a national bank the legal right to accept checks drawn n-pon it, unless the
drawer has the amonnt stated in the check actuaUy on deposit in the bank?
If a national bank has the power to make snch an acceptance, would such acceptance at a time when the money A\'as not on deposit to the credit of the drawer be a
liability to it for money borrowed, and as such be reqnired to bo limited to one-tenth
of the paid-in capital of the bank, as xirovided by section 5200 United States Revised
statutes?
If a national bank has tlie power to accept such checks equal iu amount in anyone
case to one-tenth of its capital, Avould the accexitance of any number of checks to an
amonnt exceeding, in the aggregate, the amount of its paid-in capital be in violation
of section 5202 United States Revised Statutes ?
The Adolation of section 5208, Eevised Statutes, subjected a national
bank to the axipointment of a receiver. The law was not mandatory, and
the appointment was left to the judgment and discretion of the Comptroller. The xiroper groundfor the appointment of a receiver is insolvency,
and it may be questioned Avhether the responsibility for taking a bank
from the control of its owners should be exercised in other cases than
insolvency until the question of violation of law shall have been brought
before the courts for determination. No appointments of receivers have
CA^er been made since the organization of the national banking system,
except in cases of insolvency, altnough two large banks which had
Xireviously been found to be insolvent, were placed in charge of a receiver for illegal certification of checks.
156
REPORT ON T H E X'INANCES.
The passage of the act of March 3, 1869 (section 5208, Eevised Statutes), and the examinations which followed, had the efiect to check and
diminish the xiractice of certification. The practice has, however,
greatly increased during the last three years, and the returns of the
banks for October 3, the date of their last statement, discloses the fact
that the amount of certificates or acceptances made on that day was
nearly one-third greater than for a corresponding date in the year xirevious ; and that the amount of acceptances for stock-brokers of nine
national banks on that day was more than nine times the aggregate capital stock of those banks, as may be seen from the following table, which
exhibits the amount of caxiital and certified checks or acceptances outstanding of all the national banks of New York City for corresponding
,dates from 1875 to 1882 inclusiA^e, and like information iu reference to
nine national banks for the same dates.

The penalty for the Aaolation of section 13 of the act of July 12,
1882, is a fine of not more than $5,000, or imprisonment for not more
than fiveyears, or both, upon conviction thereof in any circuit or district
court of the United States; and the penalty for the violation of other
laAVS relating to the national banks where the xienalty is not specified
is the forfeiture of the rights, privileges, and franchises of an association,
to be determined and adjudged by a proper circuit, district, or Territorial court of the United States.
The Attorney-General, in answer to the questions submitted to him,
has returned an oxiinion, in AA-hich he says:
These provisions together [section .5208 Revised Statutes, and section 13 ofthe act
of July 12, 1882] prohibit the certification of a check drawn upon a national bank,
where, at the time of certification, the drawer has not on deposit with the bank, and
regularly entered to his credit on its books, an amount of money equal to the amount
of the ciieck.
:What, then, is certification of a check? It is an act on the part of the bank upon
which the check is drawn, implying (as is obseiwed by the Supreme Cpurt in the case of
Merchants' Bank v. StateBank, 10 Wall., 604). ' ' T h a t the check is drawn upon sufficient
funds in the hands of the drawee^ that they have been set ax^art for its satisfaction,
and t h a t they shall be so applied whencA^er the check is presented for payment. It is
an undertaking that the check is good then and shall continue good, and this agreement is as binding o n t h e bank as its notes of circulation, a certificate of deiDOsit payable to the order of the depositor, or any other obligation it can assume."
No particular form is reqnired for tlie certification. Ordinarily this is doue by
simply writing the word ''good" upou the face of the check, adding thereto the signature or initials of the certifying officer. But any language employed by such officer,
importing that the check is goiod and will be paid, would seem to be sufficient. (See
2 Daniel on Neg. Inst., Sec. 1606.)
COMPTROLLER OF THE CURRENCY.
157
A check being an order for the xiayment of money addressed to a bank or banker, '
it is always presumed to be drawn against funds on deposit therewith. I t is not,
when considered with reference to its purpose, x^resentable for acceptance, but only for
payment—that is to say, payment is the only acceptance which in contemplation of
law enters into the engagement of the parties. Hence, if the payee or holder of the
<3heck presents it with the view of having it certified, instead of paid, he does so at
the peril of discharging t h e drawer. (First Nat. Bank v. Leach, .^>2 N. Y., 353.)
In Security Bank v. National Bank, (67 N. Y., 462), the court says: " T h e manifest
•object of a certification is to indicate the assent of the certifying hank to the request
of the draiver of the check that the drawer ivillpay to the holder the sum mentioned; and
this is what an accex')tor does by his acceptance of a bill." Whether such assent is
indicated by writing the word "good^' or the word "accepted" upon the check can
make no difierence as between the holder of the check and the bank, the obligation
iissumed by t h e latter is precisely the same in either case; and thus the legal effect of
marking a check "accex)ted" being the same as marking it "good," the employment
of the former expression may, equally with t h a t of the other, well be deemed to imX^ort a certification thereof. Agreeably to this view, the acceptance o f a check, other
than for immediate pajnnent, is not.legally distinguishable from its certification. In
fact and efiect'the words are equivalents; they are for the same forbidden xiurpose to
"produce the same forbidden results.
The aim of the statute, in xirohibiting the certificationof checks by national banks
where the amount thereof is not On deposit to the credit of the drawer, is obviously
tox'>i'Ovide a guard against the risks and evils attending such pledging of their credit
without adequate security. The mischief sought to be avoided is the incurring of
liahilities by these banks on checks drawn upon, them without safficient funds; and
inasmuch as the liability is the same whether the check be marked by the bank
•"accepted" or simply "good," either of these modes of incurring it would seem to be
sufficient to bring the case within the prohibition referred to. Each may properly be
regarded as constituting a certification, according, to the meaning and intent of the
statute. To construe otherwise would be to allow a " d e v i c e " to "evade the provision" of the law, and such, too, as by express terms is prohibited and punished.
In answer to the first question I accordinglj^ rej)ly that in my opinion a national
bank cannot legally accej>t checks drawn upon it, where the drawer has not on deposit
therewith the amount stated in the check.
To do so renders the bank subject to certain proceedings on the part of the Comptroller of the Currency (under section 5234, R. S.), and the officer by Avhom the acceptance
is made becomes liable to the penalties provided in the act of July 12, 1882.
The case x)resented in the second question is not, in my opinion, coveredby the provisions of section 5200 Revised Statutes.
The restriction then applies only to liabilities "for money borrowed." The acceptance of a check, where the drawer has no funds on deposit, would be a loan of the
credit ofthe bank, rather than a loan of money, and, if otherwise unobjectionable, it
could not properly be regarded as within the terms of the restriction adverted to.
The third question x^resents the same case in connection with section 5202, Revised
Statutes, which declares that " no association shall at any time be indebted or in any
way liable to an amount exceeding the amount of its capital stock actually x^aid in
a.nd remaining undiminished by losses or otherwise," except on account of demands of
the nature therein described. Liabilities incurred by the acceptance of checks, the
•drawers thereof having at the time no funds on deposit with the bank, do not appear
to fall within any of tlae exceptions enumerated ; and assuming such acceptance to be
lawful, I am of tlie opinion t h a t the limit imposed by section 5202 extends to liabilities
thus incurred, and that the acceptance of checks by a bank, without the existence of
funds on deposit thercAvith, to an amount exceeding in the aggregate the amouut of
its paid-in cax)ital, would be a violation of t h a t section.
Under this oxiinion of the Attorney-Gen eral it will be the duty of
the Comptroller to bring such eAddence as he can obtain by frequent
examinations to the attention of the proper officers, in order that such
violation may be determined by the courts, and the penalty enforced as
provided by the statute.
THE AMOUNT OF THE INTEREST-BEARING- FUNDED DEBT OF THE
UNITED STATES, AND THE AMOUNT HELD BY THE NATIONAL BANKS.
The report for 1881 contained tables exhibiting a classification of the

the national banks for a series of years. These tables are again presented, and now exhibit also the amount of the outstanding bonds of
the government, and the amount held by the banks on Noveniber 1st
of the present year.
The most important ox')erations of the Secretary of the Treasury, during the years which followed the close of the war, were the funding of
large amounts of temporary obligations then outstanding of the government chiefiy into six per cent, bonds.
The six per cent, bonds were gradually reduced during the year 1869,
and the seven years following, by payment and refunding, intofiA^eper
cents. The six x)6r cents, together with the five per cents, were subsequently rapidly replaced by four and a half and four per cents, which
were authorized to be issued by the act of July 14, 1870. In the year
1881 all of the unredeemed five and six per cent, bonds, amounting to
$579,560,050, Avere continued, payable at the pleasure of the government, with interest at three and one-half per cent., by agreement with
the holders, and since that time $164,833,200 of these three and onehalf per cent, bonds have been paid, and during the present year
$259,370,500 have been replaced by three per cents, under the a@t of
June 12, 1882.
The following table exhibits the classification of the unmatured interest-bearing bonded debt of the United States* on August 31, 1865^
Avhen the public debt reached its maximum, and on the 1st day of July

The operations ofthe Treasury Department for a series of years haA^e
largely reduced the amount of interest receivable by the national banks
on the bonds held by them. During the present year, ending November 1, the three and one-half ^er cents bave been reduced more than
t V hundred millions ($200,769,200), and $179,685,550 of three per cents

Sixteen years ago the banks had on dexiosit as security for circulation, 327 millions in United States bonds, of which amount 241 millions
bore interest at six per cent, and 86 millions at five xier cent. These

bonds have now entirely disappeared from the list of secuiities held by
the national banks. The aA-erage rate of interest now paid by the
United States on the bonds deposited as security for circulating notes
is about 3.5 per cent, upon their par value ^ but is equal to about 3.26
per cent, only of the current market value of the bonds. The banks
now hold 33 millions of four aud one-halfs; nearly 105 millions of fours;
40 millions of three and one-half per cents converted from five and six
per cents, and 179 millions of three per cents, which have been refunded
from three and one-half per cents, during the present year. This will
be seen from the following table, which exhibits the amount and classes

The interest-bearing funded debt of the United States was, on November 1 last, $1,418,080,200. The total amount of bonds held by all the banks
and bankers in the country as given above was $675,168,457, which is
not greatly less than one-half of the interest-bearing debt. The aniounts
for the banks other than national have been obtained from the semiannual reports made by them to the Gommissioner of Internal Eevenue,
for purposes of taxation. The table given below has also been compiled
from these rexiorts, and shows, by geograxihical divisions, the aA-erage

The amounts of United States bonds held, as shown by the tables
compiled from returns made by State banks, trust companies, and sav-.
ings banks to State officers, in twenty-one States and Territories were,
in 1882, $16,650,531 less than the average amount shown by the table*
compiled from the rexiorts made to the Commissioner of Internal Eevenue, which were received from similar institutions.
The first-named table shows the actual amounts held at A^arious dates
in 1882, while the last gives the average amount held for the six mouths
ending May 30, 1882. Although obtained from different sources and
based on data that are not equally complete, the amounts obtained from
the one source serA^e to corroborate those obtained from the other.
NATIONAL BANK F A I L U R E S .
Three national banks have been xilaced in thehands of receivers during theyear ending ISToA^ember 1,1882, namely: The Mechanics' National
Bank of Newark, N. J., on November 2, 1881; the Pacific National
Bank of Boston, Mass., on May 22, 1882, and the First National Bank
of Buffalo, N. Y., on April 22,1882. The suspension of the first-named
two banks was mentioned in the report of the Comptroller for the year
ending November 1, 1881, and the causes Avhich led to both these fail
ures Avere then fully discussed. The directors of the Pacific National
Bank of Boston undertook to make good the impairment of its capital stock in the manner authorized by section 5205 of the Eevised Statutes, but, as they failed to do so within thetime fixed by law, a receiver
was appointed to take charge of its affairs. The failure of the First
National Bank of Buffalo was the result of the misappropriation of its
funds by its president. Its condition was discovered by the bank examiner when making his annual examination, and a receiver was appointed as before stated.
The affairs of ten national banks have been finally closed within the
year. These banks, with the total dividend paid by each to their creditor s^ are as follows:

case no more than is necessary to carry on the suits. In each of these
instances, if litigation results faA'orably to the banks, some additional
dividends may be paid.

Col., 20 per cent.; the First NationalBank of Mansfield, Ohio, and Miners',
National Bank of Georgetown, CoL, 10 per cent., and to the remaining
banks, dividends less than 5 per cent.
The affairs of the Cook County and Scandinavian National Banks of
Chicago, and of the National Bank of the Stateof Missouri of Saint
Louis also, cannot be closed until pending litigation is brought to a conclusion. Thelatter bank has already paid to its creditors 100per cent,
of the principal of their claims, and more than 50 per cent, of interest
accrued up to December 1, 1882. It is expected that a considerable
portion, though not the whole, of the remaining interest will hereafter
be paid.
^
The First NationalBank of New Orleans has been closed during the
year. The payment of a final dividend had been necessarily postponed
onaccountof delay experienced in adjusting accounts due to and from
the government, but which haveMuring the year been finally settledby
an axipropriation by Congress resulting in a recovery by the bank of
$94,000. The three following banks have paid their creditors the full
amount of their claims, princix')al and interest, and their affairs are still
in the hands of receivers appointed by the Comptroller, who are administrating the remaining assets in the interest of the stockholders :

Since the commencement of the national banking system 87 banks
have been xilaced in the hands of receivers, and 420 banks have voluntarily closed their business by the votes of shareholders owning
tAvo-thirds of their stock, under the provisions of sections 5220 and
5221 of the EcA^sed Statutes of the United States. Of the banks so
Xilaced in A^oluntary liquidation by their stockholders, 7 failed to pay
their depositors, and in these cases receivers were appointed by the
Comptroller to wind up their affairs. Of the 87 banks placed in the
hands of receivers, 51 have been finally closed, leaAing 36 still in process of settlement. The loss to creditors of national banks which have
been xilaced in the hands of receiA^ers during the nearly twenty years
that haA^e elapsed since the passage ofthe act of February 25, 1863, as
near as can be estimated, including dividends which will probably be
hereafter paid, has been about $7,000,000. The average annual loss has
been, therefore, about $400,000 in the business of corporations having
an average capital of about $450,000,000, and which have been responsible for the safe keeping of deposits in their hands aA^eraging constantly
over $800,000,000, or about one-twentieth of one x^er cent, of annual
loss to depositors. The time required for liquidating the affairs of insolvent banks depends chiefly upon the amount of litigation which may
arise, as in any case it is impossible to tell in adv^ance what questions it
may become necessaryto refer to the courts for decision. In many of
these cases no conclusion can be reached until the matter has been"
brought before the courts of last resort. The dockets of the supreme
courts in most of the States, and that of the Supreme Court of the
United States, are crowded, and when an axixieal is made to these tribunals, years often elaxise before the case can be reached. Owing, however, to the decisions already made, the forms of procedure, underthe
laws governing national banks, are better understood, andin collecting
assets, in allowing off'sets, and enforcing the liabilities of stockholders,
there is now no inducement to protract litigation, either on the part of
the ordinary debtors of the bank or of the stockholders who become
such debtors when assessed.under their liability, as provided in section
5151 of the Eevised Statutes. In all cases of failure of national banks

there are many clainis presented to the receivers which, for A^arious rea:sons, do not apxiear to be xiroperly liabilities of the association, and, itis
necessary, in order to x>i'otect the interests of the genuine creditors,
that sucli claims should be rejected until their merits havebeen properly
investigated by a court of competent jurisdiction.
The liability of directors for negligent discharge of their duties, or
for malfeasance, is not yet clearly defined by any authoritative decision,
but such decisions as there are bearing upon this matter xioint to a complete remedy against them also. The total amount paid to creditors of
insolvent national banks amounts to $20,945,090; upon proved claims
amounting to $29,586,558. The dividends so far paid thus equal about
70 per cent, of the proved claims. The amount paid during the year
Avas $2,283,392.
Assessments amounting to $8,101,750 haA^e been made uxion the stockholders of insol A^erit national banks for the purxiose of enforcing their iiidiAidual liability under section 5151 of the Eevised Statutes, of Avliich about
$3,200,000 have been collected and $534,080.70 during the past year.

The attention of Congress has xireviously been called to section 5200
of the Eevised Statutes, which places restrictions uxion loans, and to the
difficulty of enforcing its x^i^OA^isions. In cities where large amounts of
Xiroduce are received and stored, it is represented that it is impossible
for the banks to transact this class of business, if restricted to loans for
an amount not exceeding in any instance one-tenth of their caxiital. I t
is true that the limitation does not apply to loans upon produce in transit,
Avhere the drafts are draAvn on existing values; but if produce is stored,
instead of being shipped, large loans cannot be made except in Adolation
of law. In such case the Comptroller has no means of enforcing the law,
except by bringing a suit for forfeiture of charter, and this course might
result in great embarrassment to business, as AA^CII as loss to many innocent stockholders of the banks. It is CAndent that the laAv should be so
amended as to exclude from the limitatioii mentioned legitimate loans
upon produce or warehouse receipts, and some other classes of collateral security, as well as loans uxion IJnited States bonds.

clearing-house holding and owning such certificate; and section 5193
Xirovides that the Secretary of the Treasury may receive United States
notes on deposit, without interest, from any national banking association, in sums not less than ten thousand dollars, and issue certificates

The act of Congress of February 19, 1873, section 333 of the United
States Eevised Statutes, requires the Comptroller to obtain from authentic sources, and report to Congress, statements, exhibiting under
appropriate heads, the resources and liabilities of such banks and saA^ings banks as are organized under the hiAvs of the scA-eral States and
Territories. In comxiliance with this act, he has presented annuall}' in
the apxiendices to his rexiorts, the resources and liabilities of these corporations, so far as it has been xiossible to obtain them. Through the
courtesy of State officers, returns of State banks, savings banks, and
trust and loan companies liaA^e, during the past year, been receiA^ed from
twenty-three States. Many of the States and Territories, including
Illinois, Kansas, Nebraska, Dakota, Oregon, Yirginia, and Tennessee
do not require x)eriodical returns of the condition of the different classes
of banks organized under their laws.
From these returns, the following abstract has been compiled, showing the resources and liabilities of State banks and trust companies for

of the savings banks the prox)ortion, nearly, of 55 to 45 ; to those of the
State banks and trust companies the proportion of 73 to 27; and to the

banks in the year 1882 is 1,294,859, which is equal to 32.3 accouuts to
each one hundred of the entire population. The average amount of
each account is $332.26, and if the total deposits Avere divided among
the entire poxmlation, the average sum of $107.27 could be given to each
individual.
The deposits of the saA-ings banks in the State of New York were
$387,832,893, while the population is 5,082,871, showing that an equal
distribution of the savings-banks deposits among the entire population
of the State Avould give $76,30 to each individual. Tables sliowing the
aggregate resources and liabilities of Statebanks, trust companies, and
savings banks in each State, from which returns haA-e been received

During prcAaous years there have been many changes in the classes
of United States bonds held by the national banks as security for their
circulation, owing to the payment or refunding or extension of the different issues of five and six per cent, bonds bearing interest at four and
one-half, four, three and one-half, and three per cent. During the present year 259 millions of three and one-half xier cent, bonds, held by
the banks, which Avere extended from five or six per cent, bonds in the
year 1881, haA^e been changed into three per cent, bonds. The amount
of United States bonds held by the Treasurer as security for the circulating notes of the national banks on the first day of November, 1882,
is exhibited in the following table:

During the year 1871, and previous thereto, a large xiortion of the
bonds bore interest at the rate of six xier cent., and until the year 1877
all of the bonds bore interest at either five or six per-cent. The five
or six per cent, bonds, in the year 1881, entirely disappeared from the
list of these securities, with the exception of three and a half million
of Pacific sixes.
At the xiresent time more than eleven per cent, of the amount, pledged
for circulation, consists of bonds bearing interest at three and a half per
cent, only, and nearly fifty per cent, of them bear interest at three per
cent., and the remainder, with the exception of three and one-half
millions of Pacifies, bear interest at the rate of four and four and a
half per cent.

COUNTERFEIT AND UNSIGNED NATl^ONAL-BANK NOTES.
Section 5 of the act of June 30, 1876, provides—
That all United States officers, cliarged with the receipt or (Xisbursement of public
mbneys, and all officers of national banks, shall stamp or write in plain Xetters the word
"counterfeit," *'altered" or "worthless," upon all fraudulent notes iss ued in the form
of, and intended to circulate as money, which shall be x^i'esented at their place of
business, and if such officers shall wrongfully stamp any genuine note of the United
States, or of the national banks, they shall, upon presentation, redeem, such notes at
the face value thereof.
This section inakes it the duty, not onty of every^f&cer of the United
States charged Avith the receipt or disbursenient of public moneys, but
also of all officers of the national banks, to stamp every fraudulent note
which shall be presented at their counters, in such a manner as shall
thereafter prevent its circulation.
There is no doubt that there has been great neglect on the part of
national bank officers to comxily with this law. The number of counterfeit national bank notes which have been issued is very small in proxiortion to the nuniber issued xirevious to the establishment of the national banking systeni, but the nuinber in circulation has largely
increased during the last few years, probably OAving to the fact that the
bank notes which are x)resented at the counters of the banks, and Avhich
are known to be fraudulent, are not immediately stamped ''counterfeit,"
^'altered," or>'Avorthless," as required by law. If a genuine note is
wrongfully stamped, the officer thus stamxiing it can immediately obtain a genuine note in exchange by forwarding the same to the Treasurer for redemption, so that there is no risk whatever on the x)art of
the officers of natibnal banks, even if they should wrongfully stamp a
genuine note.
Section 5172 of the Kevised Statutes x^i'ovides that national bank
notes shall exxiress upon their face the promise of the association issuing the same to pay on demand, attested hy the signatures of the xiresident or vice-x)resident and cashier, and si ction 5182 of the Eevised
Statutes x:)rovides, cthat after any association receiving circulating notes
has caused its xiromise to pay such notes on demand to he signed by the
Xiresident or Ance-xiresident and cashier thereof, in such manner as to
make them obligatory promissory notes, payable on demand at its place
of business, such association may issue and circulate the same as money.
There can be no doubt as to the meaning and intention of these sections. The laAV requires that national bank notes shall be signed by the
president or vice-xiresident and cashier, before they are placed in circulation, and every bank issuing notes, not thus signed by these officers,
subjects itself to a forfeiture of its charter. Notwithstanding this plain
Xirovision of law, various banks haA^e issued their notes with xirinted
signatures, and in some cases with lithograxihic signatures, Avhich are so
badly executed as to excite suspicion as to the genuineness of the notes.
The written signature of the officers of the bank afe necessary as an
additional xirecaiition against counterfeiting. The signature of atjeast
one baiik-officer is necessary as a check between this, office and the
issuing bank, for if the question of an overissue of notes should arise,
the signature of such officer would, AAathout question, (letermine the
genuineness of the note.
A.bill is now pending in Congress, imposing a fine of twenty dollars
for every circulating note issued by auy national bank Avithout the
written signature thereon of at least one of its officers.
Nationaibank notes, Avith new designs, are now being raxiidlv issued

to banks whose corporate existence has been extended, and to other
national banks which are being organized, and it is important that
. these new notes should not be issued unless signed by the officers in
.accordance with law. The Comptroller respectfully repeats his pre^
Aaous recommendations for the xiassage o f t h e act referred to, which
act should also impose a xienalty uxion any engraA^er or lithographer
who shall print the signature of bank officers upon such notes.
^ TAXATION.
In xireAHOus reports the rexieal of the law imxiosing a tax upon bank
capital and deposits, and of the two cent stamp tax on checks, has been
recommended as a measure of justice to the banks, and as a benefit to the
people, and to the manufacturing and commercial interests of the country. During the last session of Congress a bill including a provision
for repealing these taxes was passed by the House by a A^ote of 127 to 79.
The debate in the Senate, as well as some votes on preliminary questions, showed that if a vote upon the bill had been reached it would
have becorae a laAv. The force of the reasons heretofore urged for the
repeal of these taxes is as great as ever. The revenue still continues in
excess of the amount required for thk exxienses of the gOA^ernment, including interest on the public debt Avhich is being rapidly reduced; and
the taxes imposed upon banking' capital by the government. State, and
municipal authorities are larger than during any previous year. The
Comptroller presents, herewith, a table Avhich gives, for the year 1881,
the amount of the banking capital invested in nationalbanks, and the
amount and rates of United States and State taxes paid by the nationa.!
banks in CA^eiy State and xirincipal city in the Union.

i t will be seen that the xier centage of State taxation during the year
1881 varies from 1.3 per cent, in the Southern States to 1.9 per cent, in
the Middle and Western States, and that tlie aA-erage percentage
throughout the United States remains the same as it Avas during the
year 1880, bnt has increased one-tenth of one per cent, as compared with
that paid during the year 1879. Tbe total of United States and State
taxes paid by national banks to capital is 3.7 per cent, during the year
1881, haAing increased one-tenth of one per cent, over those paid in
1880, and one-half of one per cent, over those paid during the year 1879.
. The rates of United States taxation are the same in all sections of
the country. The inequabty in tlie* percentages of United States taxes
to caxiital arises from the fact that while the United States tax is imXiosed on the three iteins of capital, deposits, and circnlation, the percentages given in tbe tables are those of the total tax derived from
these three sources to capital only. Where the deposits are large
in proportion to capital, the proportion of the United States tax, as
measured by caxiital, appears greater. The first table given.beloAv
shows the xiercentages to capital of taxation xiaid by the banks in the
princixial cities of the country. Particular attention is called to.the
inequality in State taxation shown by it. The second table gives the
States in'AYhich the taxes, United States and State, are most excessive.

The Imiform rates of United States taxes are annually one xier cent,
uxion their notes in circulation; one-half of one per cent, uxion their dexiosits, and the same rate upon the average amount of their capital, in
excess of that invested by them .in United States bonds. These taxes
are paid semi-annually by the hational banks to the Treasurer of the
United States, and subject the government to no expense for their collection.
The Avhole cost of the national banking s^^stem to the government,
from the date of its establishment in 1863, has been $5,366,90S; on the
other hand, the government has, in about twenty years, collected taxes
upon the capital, circulation, and deposits of national banks at the rates
heretofore specified, amounting, as may be seen by the following table,
to $118,005,706.25:

The tax imposed upon banks other than national is collected by the
Gommissioner of Internal Eevenue. The rates upon capital and deposits are the same as in the case of the national banks. A tax of
ten per cent, is imposed, under section 3412 of the EcAdsed Statutes,
on the use, in payments, of notes issued by any banks other than
national. This tax has the ettect of preventing the issue of circulating
notes by State banks. The table below giA^es the taxes collected annually
by the Commissioner of Internai Eevenue during the years from 1864 to

This table shows that the percentages to capital of taxes have never
been less than three per cent, annually, and that during the last four
, years given there has been an increase in the rate from 3.1 per cent, to
3.7 per cent. It is probable that the rates of State taxation paid by
banks, other than national, do not A^aiy much from the rate of those
paid, by the national banks, although in many of the States, the laws
relative to the assessment of taxes ux)on bank capital have, heretofore',
somewhat discriminated against national banks. The repeal of the law
imposing the government taxes Avill still leave the l^anks subject to a
burden of taxation by the different States much greater than that imposed by them upon any other kind of capital, and this repeal is again
urgently recommended. The reduction of the annual rate of the tax
on circulation to one-half of one xier cent, is also recommended for reasons
giA^en in another portion of this'report.

I
DECISIONS RELATIVE TO STATE TAXATION OF NATIONAL BANK SHARESl
In the last annual rexiort of the Comptroller of the Currency reference was made to the decision of the United States circuit court of the
northern district of the Staite of ISTew York, in the case of the National
Albany Exchange Bank vs. Charles A. Hills etal.) suxiervisors of Albany
County,^]S'ew York, namely, that the law of the State of ^ e w York under
which taxes had been assessed for fourteen years upon bank shares was
void and invalid, for the reason that this act did not permit the owners of
national bank shares to reduce the assessment by the aniount of tlieir
4iebts, while owners of other moneyed cax3ital xiossessed that privilege.
The circuit court rendered a judgment in° favor of Stanley, the assignee and rexiresentative of the stockholders of the National Albany
Exchange Bank, for taxes preAdously exacted and paid. The supervisors appealed to the Supreme Court of theUnited States. The decision
of the latter court was rendered Axiril 3,1882, and reversed the decision
ol the circuit court in the case of all except one of the stockholders
represented by Stanley.
The court said:
The question here to be decided arises uuder two statutes of the Stateof New York
in regard to taxation. -The first of these is the act of 1850, relating to the assessment
and collectiou of taxes in the city of Albany. The sixth section of the act requires
the board of assessors to prepare an assessment roll, in which there shall be set opposite the name of each tax-payer (1) all his real estate liable t a taxation, aud its value;
(2) the full value of- all his personal property, after deducting the just debts owing by
him. Section 9 of the act is as follows: ' ' I f any person shall at any time before tho
assessors shall have completed their assessments make affidavit t h a t the value of his
real estate does not exceed a certain sum, to be specified in such affidavit, or t h a t the
value of the personal estate owned by him, after deducting his just debts and his
property invested in the stock of any corporation or association liable to be taxed
therefor, does not exceed a certain sum, to be specified iu the affidavit, it shall be the
duty of the board of assesors to value such real or personal estate, or both, as the
case may be, at the sum specified iu such affidavit, and no more."
In 1866 the State enacted a law concerning the taxation of bank shares, wJ.iich was
evidently intended to meet the requiremeuts of the act of Congress in relation to
State taxation of the shares of national banks, and the provision of this statute
relates only to taxing stockholders in banks, and to the capital investedin iudividual
banks. The first section of this act reads as follows, an.d it contains uo other provisions for deductions as the basis of taxation, except Avhat is found in this section :
*'No t a x shall hereafter be assessed upon the capital of any bank or banking association organized under the authority of this State or of the Uuited States, but the.
stockholders in such banks und bankiug associations shall l3e assessed and taxed on
t h e value of their shares of stock therein," &c.
In the case of Peoxile v. Dolan (36 N. Y., 59) the question Avas whether, taking the''
two statutes together, an owner of shares of stock was entitled to deduct f r o m t h e
assessed value ot his shares the just debts due him. * * * . The court of appeals
decided t h a t no such deduction should be made uuder the law of 1866. Iii the case>
of W^illiains v V^^eaA^er, Williams had made the affidavit required by section 9 of the
act of 1850, and demanded a deduction of the assessors, which they refused. The
case Avas takeii to the cpurt ctf appeals, which reaffirmed the principles held in
tfie case of People v. Dolau. The Williams case coming to the Uuited States Snpreme
Court by writ of error, it was held t h a t while we are bound to accept t h e decision of
the highest court of the State in construction of its own statute, the act of 1866 as
thus construed was in t h a t particular iu conflict with t h e act of Congress, because it
did t a x shares of the national banks at a higher rate than other moneyed capital in
t h e State. * ^ * Accepting, therefore, as we must, the act of 1866, as construed by t h e
court of appeals of New York, as not authorizing any deduction for debts by a shareholder of a uational bauk, is it for t h a t reason absolutely void? * * " It would
seem t h a t if the act remains a valid ^rule of assessment for shares of State banks and
for individual bankers, it should also remaiu the rule for shareholders ofnational banks
who have no debts to deduct. ^ •• ^
* ^-
None of the stockholders except Williains made the afiddavit required
by the act of 18'50, shoAying they had debts to deduct, and therefore in
184
REPORT ON THE FINANCES.
their case the judgment of the circuit court was rcA^ersed, and in that of
Williams affirmed.
This decision seems to cut off all remedy for taxes already paid by
stockholders of Albany national banks wlio neglected to make the afifidaAdt required under the act of 1850.
In People v. WeaA^er the Supreme Court xiointed out that the method'
to pursue in cases where the taxation by State authority of shares of
national banks was greater than that of other monied capital in the
same State, was by enjoining the collection of the excessive taxation. In the case of iiational Albany Exchange Bank v. Hills, the
bank brought, on behalf of its stockholders, a suit to enjoin the collection for faxes assessed but unpaid forthe year 1879, and the circuit
court ofthe northern district of New York granted a xierpetual injunction. The Suxireme Oourt decided that the injunction was xiroperly
granted as to one stockholder, who made affidavit and deniand on account of deduction of his debts, but not as to tbe others, who had made
no such affidavit or demand, but in the case of the latter the loAver court
was directed to permit them to bring their action in an amended form,
on the gronnd tbat they refrained from niaking affidavit and deniand,
because they knew it would have no effect.
In the case of German National Bank of Chicago v. Kimball, appealed
to the United States Suxireme Court from circuit court for the northern district of Illinois, it was decided tbat no one can be permitted to
go into a court of equity to enjoin the collection of a tax, until he has
shown himself entitled to the aid ofthe court by paying so much of the
tax assessed against him as it can be jilainly seen he ought to xiay, nor
should he be permitted, because his tax is in excess of Avhat is just and
lawful, to screen hiniselt from paying any tax at all, until the xirecise
amount which he ought to pay, is ascertained by a court of equity.
In the* case" of Eyansyille National Bank v^ Britton, referred to
last year, as decided in the United States circuit court for the district
of Indiana, the Snpreme Court affirms the decree of the lowei-court,
perpetually enjoining the collector as to those shareholders who at the
time of the assessment proA^ed that they owed debts which should rightfully be deducted, and dismissing the bill as to other shareholders.
All of these decisions appear to have grown out of matters xiending
when the decision of the United States Supreme Court in tbe case of
People.-y. Weaver A\^as rendered. I t is xirobable that in most States the
legislatures Avill so modify their laws taxing bank shares as hereafter
to conform with the princixiles laid doAvn in that decision 5 but these
supplementary decisions are valuable in that they xioint out a mode
of action in all cases where discrimination in any form is made in
assessing or collecting taxes on national bank shares. The xiJirty aggrieved must clearly state the amount of the excessive taxation, pay
what is justly due, and enjoin the collection of the remainder. In stating the amount believed to be unjustly demanded, strict regard must be
had to the forms required by the State laws in force in the place where
. the bank in located. While the Supreme Court of the United States is
extremely careful not unnecessarily to interfere Avith the effect of State
legislation in the taxation of national bank shares, it uxiholds the rights
of indiAdduals under Federal laws when actions based on equitable
grounds are brought in a proper manner.
In New York City it is claimed that under the act now in force in the
State, taxing national and other bank shares, which permits the deduction of debts, there is still great discrimination in the valuation of bank
shares as comxiared AA^tli the A^aluation of other xiersonal xiroxierty and
real estate.

' Of the losses exhibited by the foregoing tables, $2,025,502 was on
account of premiums on United States bonds charged off*. The high
premiums upon the United States bonds not subject to redemption
at the option ofthe government, compel tbose organizing newnational
banks to invest a portion of their capital in a premium account. As
the premium may entirely disappear at the maturity of tbe bonds it has
been a requirement of this office that a portion of such premium account
shall be charged to nndivided proiits each half 3 ear before the declaration
of a dividend until the whole account shall have disappeared. It is, of
course, possible that many of these amounts charged off*, either on account
of premiums or on account of technical bad dfebts, may eventually be
realized by the bank. The bank may close and withdraw and sell its
bonds while tbey yet command a premium. Debts, though technically
bad on account of interest remaining due and unpaid over six months,
may nevertheless be afterwards paid. These recovered losses are
included in the profits of each half year. Banks holding 4 per cent,
bonds have been instructed to charge off each year one-twentieth part
of the premium paid thereon, and counted as an asset; those holding 4J_
per cent, bonds have been instructed to siinilarly charge off'one-tenth
of the. premium, and those holding Pacific Eailroad sixes to charge off*
one-fifteenth. The charges in each case were to be made previous to
the semi-annual declaration of a dividend, and at no time is the amount
of premium counted as an asset to exceed the current market premium
<in the bonds held.

Practically the law requires that the surplus fund of eacb bank shall
at all times equal an amount equal to one-tenth of its total net earnings
«ince it commenced business. Many ofthe banks accumulate the fund
much faster than this, and some pass dividends for the purpose of doing
so. Some do not stop at the twenty per cent, limit named in section 5199,
-but continue to increase tbeir surplus until the latter is often greater
than the capital stock. As the fund is very rarely diminished except
for such extraordinary losses as cannot be met out of current profits,
it, together with the capital, constitutes the working fund of the bank
by the use of which dividends are earned. Bearing this in mind, it will
be seen that the returns made to stockholders of national banks for
their investment are not excessive.
In an excellent paper on the national banks of the United States,
read before the Banker's Institute of London, England, May 17, 1882,
by Mr. Eobert AY. Barnett, an associate of the Institute^ and published
190
REPORT ON T H E FINANCES.
in the journal of the Institute for July, 1882, the following comment is
made:
''Dividends paid by the banks have, on the whole, been satisfactory;
although, taking into consideration the value of capital in the United
States and the general rates of interest prevailing, the average rate of
dividends must be pronounced inoderate."
UNITED STATES L E G A L - T E N D E R NOTES AND NATIONAL BANK CIR,j
CULATION.
The acts of February 25, 1862, July 11, 1862, and March 3,1863, each
authorized the issue of 150 niillions of dollars of legal-tender notes, making an aggregate of 450 millions of dollars.
On January 30, 1864, the aniount of such notes outstanding was
$449,338,902, which was the highest amount outstanding at any one
time. The act of June 30, 1864, provided that the total ainount of
Unitecl States notes issued, or to be issued, should not exceed 400 millions of dollars, and sucb additional sum, not exceeding 50 millions, as
might be temporarily required for the redemption of temiiorary loans.
By the act of June 20,1874, the maximum amount was fixed at 382 millions. Section 3, act of Januar}^ 14, 1875, authorized an increase of the
circulation of national banks in accordance with existing law, without
respect to the limit previously existing, and required the Secretary of
the Treasury to retire legal-tender notes to an'amount equahto eighty
per cent, of the national-bank notes thereafter issued, until the amount
of such legal-tender notes outstanding should be 300 millions, ahd no
more. Under the operation of this act, $35,318,984 of legal-tender notes
werp retired, leaving the amount in circulation on May 31, 1878, the
date of the repeal ofthe act, $346,681,016, which is the amount now outstanding.

In the following table are given the amount and kinds of the outstanding currency of the United States and of the national banks on January 1 of each year, from 1866 to 1882, and on November 1, 1882, to

tween that time and, January 26, 1882, the date of the foregoing table,
of 328,234,895 francs, or $65,646,979, and since January 30,1879, an increase of 561,345,845 francs, or $112,269,169.

It will be seen that the Imperial Bank of Germany bas in circulation
no notes of a less denomination than seven dollars and a half (ten
thalers), and issues none of less than twenty-five dollars, (one hundred
marks); and that the Bank of France issues but little over a million
and a quarter of a less denomination than ten dollars. The Bank of
England issues no notes of less than £5, or twenty-five dollars, and the
Irisli and Scotch banks none of less than £ 1 , or five dollars.
REDEMPTION.
Since'the passage of the act of June 20,1874, section 3 of which requires the banks at all times to keep on deposit in the Treasury 5 per
centum of their circulation as a redemption fund, that fund as a rule
has been maintained, and circulating notes of the banks have been
promptly redeemed at the Treasury, without expense to the governnient.
The following table exhibits the amount of national-bank,notes received for reciemption monthly by the Oomptroller of the Ciirrency for
the year ending October 31,1882, and the amount received for the same
period at the redeniption agency of the Treasury, together with the
total amount received since the passage of the act of June 20, 1874:

OF
HE DIRECTOR OF THE MliNT.
TREASURY D E P A R T M E N T ,
B U R E A U OF T H E M I N T ,
October 12, 1882.
S I R : I have the honor to submit my fourth, the tenth annual report
of the Director of the Mint since tbe organization of tbis Bureau, showing the operations of tbe mints and assay offices of the United States
during tbe fiscal year ended June 30, 1882.
'
The receipts of foreign coiu and bulhon declined, and at the close of
the year had almost entirely ceased, yet a large amouut of bullion was
deposited for parting and refining, and the mint^ were fully occupied
in coining the silver purchased for that purpose, and the large amount.
of gold previously received from foreign countries as well as that produced during the year by the mines of the United States.
The import of gold continued to exceed its export during the first
half of the fiscal year, at the close of which tbe excess amounted to
$30,100,230. In tbe latter piart ofthe year tbe niovement was reversed
and the excess of the exports over the gold iraports was $28,311,047,
reducing the net gain during the whole of the fiscal year to $1,789,183.
D E P O S I T S A N D PURCHASES.
Tbe deposits of bulUon and coin, exclusive of redeposits, were, of gold,
$66,756,652.95, and of silver, including purchases, $33,720,491.42, making a totalof $100,477,144.37; of which $17,993^086.03 of gold and
$1,787,385.67 of silver were again cleposited, making the total amount
received and operated upon during the year at all the mints and assay
offices $124,749,738.98 of gold au.d $35^507,877.09 of silver, a total of
$160,257,616.07.
The deposits of domestic production were, gold, $31,298,511.97, and
silver, $30,956,588.18, a total of $62,255,100.15; of foreign coin and bullion, gold, $33,0S8,617.82, andof silver, $2,287,463.17; of United States
coin, gold, $599,356.80, ofsilver, $127,572.40, a. total of ^726,921).20, and
of jewelry, plate, &c., gold, $1,770,166.36; silver, $348,867.67.
COINAGE.
The gold coinage of the mints during both the fiscal and calendar
year was greater than that of any previous year in their history; being
for the latter nearly eleven millions greater than tbe gold coinage-of
the fiscal year 1881, and nearly twenty-seven millions in excess of the
heavy coinage in 1851 of $62,614,492.50.

REPORT ON T H E
FINANCES.
. At the commencement of the fiscal year the coinage mints and JSTew
York assay office held of uncoined gold bullion $86,548,696.96, and at the
close of the year there remained $53,700,225.57, the amount on hand
having been reduced $32,848,471.39. With this and $66,756,652.95 gold
deposited during the year there were coined 11,266,003 pieces of gold
of the value'of $89,413,447.50, the balance having been paid to depositors
in fine bars and accounted for in the Avastage of the operative officers
and tbe loss on sale of sweeps. About five-sixths ($65,000,000) of the
total gold coinage was in eagles and half eagles. The coinage of double
eagles being $14,563,920; of eagles, $44,369,410, and of balf eagles,
$30,473,955.
. The gold coinage of tlie Philadelphia Mint was nearly all in eagles
and half eagles, the value of the former being $36,700,050 and of tbe
latter $22,971,725.
At the San Francisco Mint little over half of the coinage was in
eagles and half eagles, the denominations coined being, double eagles,
$14,200,000; eagles, $7,400,000; half eagles, $7,250,000. Coinageatthe
San Francisco Mint of a portion of the bullion belonging to the Uuited
States into denominations of $20 has been permitted because of the
greater demand for large coins on the Pacific coast, where the large exchanges and settlements are ^generally efi'ected bythe Actual use of gold,
and less paper is employed forthe purpose than in other portions of the
country.
"
The silver coinage amounted to $27,783,388.75, of wbich $27,772,075
were silver dollars and $11,313.75 were proof silver coins of other denominations.
The total number of pieces struck during tbe year, and their A-alue, were

The stock of 5-cent nickel coins in the Treasury baving become depleted, and there being a demand for such coin, tbe Secretary of the
Treasury, on the 12th day of November, 1881, directed thatthe coinage
of 5-cent nickels be resumed, and tbat the copper and nickel cents
issued under acts in force prior to the passage of the Coinage Act of
1873, beld in the custody of the superintendent of tbe mint at Philadelphia for the Treasurer of the United States, sbould be recoined into

5-cent nickel pieces, of Avhich 4,400,775 pieces, of a A'-alue of $220,038.75,
were^struck during the year. Tbis recoinage has occasioned no loss,
but on the contrary has resulted in a large profit.
BARS.
Gold bars were mf nufactured during t h e year to t h e A-alue of
$37,505,120.04. A t the New York Assay Office, fine bars,of the value
of $12,147,674.90 were prepared for depositors, and bars of standard fineness of the value of $23,739,978.18 AA^ere made for shipment to
the Pbiladelphia Mint for coinage. Fine sih-er bars of the value of
$7,769,898.15 were manufactured for depositors, principally at the JN'ew
York Assay Office.
^
The totah A-alue of fine, standard, and unparted silver bars manufactured at all the mints and assay offices was $8,129,202.94^ and the
total value of both gold and silver bars $45,634,322.98.
BARS E X C H A N G E D
FOR
COIN.
The act, approved on the 26th of May last, authorizing the receipt of
United States gold coin in exchange for gold bars has been found, as
was anticipated, advantageous to the goA^ernment. Under its provisions,
during the month of June, gold bulUon to the valueof $2,697,166.15, in
the form of fine bars suitable for export, was exchanged at the ISTew
York'Assay Office for gold coin, saving to the goA^ernment the expense
of its coinage, as well as of transporting it to Philadelphia and ofthe
resulting coin back to'BewYork. During the months of July, August,
and Septeniber there was a further exchange of gold bullion for coih
to the amount of $3,890,833.91, a total of $6,588,000.06 since the passage
of the law and uj) to October 1.
PARTING
AND
REFINING.
The deposits of bullion for parting and refining were about one million of gross ounces more tban in the, previous year, resulting chiefly
from increased receipts for that purpose at tbe New York Assay Ofiice.

In the weekly purchases it has been the purpose to obtain not less
than $2,000,000 worth of silver bullion for each month.
Where tbis has not been the case, it Avas either on account of the failure
of sellers of silver to deliver their bullion promptly during the month in
which it was purchased, or from the fact that sufficient silver Avas not
ofiered at rates not exceeding tbe market price. Tbe table of purchases
during tbe year sbows, however, a montbly delivery aud coinage averaging OA^er $2,000,000 Avorth of silver bullion, and a compliance with tbe
. provisions of tbe law as far as practicable.
The average price paid during the yearfor silver bulhon was $1.02.15
per ounce standard.. The average London quotation for silver bullion
df Britisb standard was 51^f pence per ounce,'equivalent at the par of
exchange to $1.13.623 per ounce fine, or $1.02.26 per ounce standard.
The New Yoiii.i$elling price of silver during the year Avas $1.13.799 per
ounce fine, or $1.02.419 per ounce standard. No ofiers of silver were

accepted or purch^es made at rates in excess of the\ equivalent of the
London price on the date of purchase.
The difficulties heretofore experienced in supplying the New Oiieans
Mint with silver at market rates haA^e been overcome, and purchases of
silver bullion are now made for delivery at that inint at rates little, if
any, in excess of the price paid for delivery at the Philadelphia Mint.
It was tberefore deemed expedient to keep the New Orleans Mint well
supplied with sih-er bullion and employed in the coinage of silver dollars. This enabled the Philadelphia Mint to meet the requirements of
the Treasury and of the public for gold and minor coins, and relieved
it from the necessity of increasing its sih-er coinage Avhen the high prices
.asked for silver bullion at San Francisco prcAT^ented the mint at that
place from obtaining a supply.
The Secretary of the Treasury, on the 30th of January, 1882, authorized the superintendents of the coinage mints to purchase mutilated and
uncurrent sih-er coin when delivered in sums of $3 and upwards and
to pay, Avithout preyious melt or assay, at the rate of $1 per ounce of
silver of standard fineness contained, the coins so purchased to be used
in the coinage of the standard sih-er dollars. The mutilated and uncurrent silver coin presented in sums of $3 and upward, from the 1st of
February to June 30, 1882, have amounted, as nearly as can be ascertained, to about $29,000.
The ^ssayers in charge of the United States mint at Denver and of
the assay offices at Helena, Charlotte, Boise, and Saint Louis were authorized, under date of February 7, 1882, to purchase the silver taken
for assay of silver bullion deposited for unparted bars and to pay for
the same in coin at the rate of $1 per ounce of standard silver, and the
bullion thus purchased to be transmitted by them, with other bullion,
to the coinage mints, to be used in the coinage of the standard silver
dollars.
The profits on the silver bullion coined during the year and credited
to the silver profit fund amounted to $3,440,887.15. Of this sum
$3,438,829.41 were profits oh the coinage of standard silver dollars, and
the remainder, $2,057.74, were profits on the fractional silver coined.
Fractional silver coins ofthe nominal value of $11,313.75 were struck
at the Philadelphia Mint by.the superintendent's orders, to enable him
to supply numismatists and others desiring to keep up complete collections of the coinage.
Of the profits on the coinage of sih-er $2,554,729.33 were deposited
in the Treasury during the year, together with $1,101,645.43 standing
to the credit of that account at tbe commencement of the year; $64,026.11
were paid for transportation, and $15,055.99 for wastage and loss on sale
of sweeps, leaAang a balance to the credit of the silver profit fund in
. the niints, on June 30, 1882, of $807,075.72, which sum has since been
deposited in the Treasury.
DISTRIBUTION.
The following statement exhibits the balance on hand June 30>, 1881,

;
The total value of the precious metals wasted during the year at the
four coinage mints ahd the New York Assay Office was only $36,658.93 ;
while bullion of the value of $16,685.28 was returned by the melter and
refiner of the mint at San Francisco in excess of the amount with
which he was charged, and by the melter and refiner at the New York
Assay Office of the value of $21,729.15, making a total gain of $38,414.43,
or a net excess over and aboA^e the entire amount of bulhon wasted of

the value of the gold and silver contained in sweepings, as determined
by assay, ahd the price received for the sweeps, which are'sold because
the mints, with their inadequate facilities for working such material,
cannot extract gold and silver of sufficient value, less expenses, to equal
the sum which smelters will pay for them.
REFINERY
EARNINGS AND E X P E N D I T U R E S .
The charges collected during the year for parting and refining bullion, which by law are appropriated for the payment of the expenses of
those operations, amounted to $278,882, of which the sum of $264,609.56
was paid out for expenses.

The net excess of the earnings of the refineries OA^er the expenses
froni the first of July, 1876, to June 30,1882, remaining in the Treasury
of theUnited States, amounted on the first day of July last to $153,311.80.
This is a very satisfactory exhibit, especially in view of the fact that
tbe rates charged for parting and refining at some of the mints had been
reduced and Avere less than in previous years, and shows that the refineries have been more than self-supporting.
The charges for parting and refining collected during the year at each
institution were sufficient to defray the expenditures of those operations,
except at Carson and New Orleans. The slight deficiencies at those
mints were occasioned in part by the paynients of bills accruing in former years, and will not, it is believed, necessitate an. increase in the
rates of charges.

ANNUAL- ASSAY.
The annual assay to test the weight and fineness of the coiiis struck
at the mints during the calendar year 1881 was made at the Philadelphia Mint on the second Wednesday of February last, as required by
' law. Assays Avere made and the weights tested of the reserved coins
' from deliveries in each month throughout the year, and the results were
reported by the committee on weighing '^ that all the coins weighed are
within the limits of exactness required by law, and that, in fact, very
few A^ary from the standard by one-half the tolerance"; and by the committee on assaying that they had taken the gold and silver coins reserA^ed-from the several niints '' and li^ive assayed the same in mass, and
' also the individual coins,'' and that—

while there appears a very great perfection of workmanship. An analysis of the copper alloy present shows that it is substantially in accordance with t h e law and regulations.
Whereupon it was resolved by the commission—
That the assay commission having examined and tested the reserved coins of the
several mints for the year 1881, and it appearing t h a t these coins are within t h e tolerance prescribed by law, the trial is considered and reported as satisfactory.
ESTIMATION OF THE YALUES OF FOREIGN COINS.
The estimation of the Director of the Mint and the proclamation of
the Secretary of the Treasury, on the 1st day of January, 1882, of the
values of standard coins in circulation of the various nations of the
world will be found in the appendix.
The valuation of foreign coins estimated in the circular of January 1,
1882, was based upon the average price of silver bullion for the last three
months of 1881 to December 29.
The average price was 51.886 pence per ounce British standard, and
the equivalent price 113.74 cents per fine ounce.
Upon this basis the following changes were made in the values of silver coins from those estimated by the circular of January 1,1881: The
Austrian florin, from 40.7 cents to 40.6 cents; the Japan yen, from 88.8
<ients to 88.7 cents. The -^gourde" of Hayti was estimated to be AVorth
96.5 cents.
EXAMINATIONS AND ANNUAL SETTLEMENTS.
An account was taken at each of the mints and at the New York Assay Office at the close of the fiscal year of the coin, bullion, and other
moneys belonging to those institutions in the hands of the superintendent, and delivered to him by the operatiA^e officers.
The annual examinations of the operative officers were superintended
by the Director or a representative of the Bureau, and were found satisfactory, the wastage in no case exceeding the legal limits.
The gold bullion operated upon in the melter and refiner's departments in the mints and New York Assay Office amounted to 14,618,071
standard ounces, on which the legal allowance for wastage was 14,618
standard ounces, and the actuaf wastage 835.27 standard ounces. Of
silver bullion 54,540,070 ounces of standard fineness were operated upon,
on which the legal limit of wastage was 81,810 ounces, and the actual
wastage 7,996 ounces.
In the coiner's departments, 10,616,313 ounces of gold of standard
fineness were operated uiion, on which the legal limit of wastage was
5,308 ounces, and the actual wastage 470 ounces. Of silver bullion
47,293,782 ounces were operated upon, upon which the legal limit of
Avastage was 47,293 ounces, and the actual wastage 4,279 ounces.
The total wastage at allthe institutions during the year was 1,305.27
ounces of gold, of the value of $24,306.30, and 12,275 ounces of silver, of
the value $12,352.63.
Besides the annual settlements, special examinations were had at the
San Francisco and New Orleans Mints to ascertain the facts in respect
to charges afi'ecting their management, and the result of the examinations, Avith the evidence, were submitted to the Secretary of the Treasury.
A special settlement also was made at the close of the calendar year
at the New York Assay Office, haAdng been rendered necessary by reason of the resignation of the superintendent, Thomas C. Acton, and the
appointment of Pierre C. Yan Wyck as his successor.

REPORT ON THE FINANCES.
REVIEW OF THE MINT SERVICE.
-Besides the current office work of this Bureau in supervising the
operations of the mints and assay offices, tbeir contracts, purchases,
and expenditures, in examining their monthly and quarterly accounts,
and their daily, Aveekly, and nionthly reports, their business transactions, coinage,'&c., much time was given to the procuring and compiling of statistical information concerning the production of the precious
metals in theUnited States and the preparation o f a special report
thereon.
At the laboratory of the Bureau 166 deliveries of gold coins and 168
silA^er coins Avere tested by assays of the coins forwarded from the
mints for that purpose, and assays Avere made of. ores received at this
office from various portions of the country, the receipts for which,
amounting to $261, w^ere deposited in the Treasury.
The business of the mints and assay offices has been conducted with
fidelity and skill, and to tbe general satisfaction of the public. While
less gold bullion was received and handled than in the preceding year,
the work of the coinage niints and the New York Assay Office in parting, refining, and coining bullion was greater. The receipts of bullion
from the public and deliveries to and from the operatiA^e officers involved
transactions and accounts, accompanied by vouchers, Avhich receiA^ed
careful examination in the Mint Bureau as well as in the accounting
offices of the Treasury Department.
P H I L A D E L P H I A MINT.
At this mint, besides striking a large number of silver coins and an
unprecedented coinage of gold, there was a continuous demand for
minor coins, of .which, during the year, 4,400,775 five-cent pieces and
42,461,475 one-cent pieces were coined. The total number of pieces
coined at the mint in 1882 was 66,236,475, being 11,500,000 more than
in the preceding year.
The demand for small coins, as has been noticed in other countries,
increases with business activity, and is a favorable indication of tbe
frequency of actual exchanges and of a prosperous condition of the
country.
A greater amount of gold and silver was operated upon by the melter
and refiner and by the coiner than in any prcAdous year.
The heav}^ coinage of gold and of minor coins at the Philadelphia
Mint has continued to require large expenditures, and to defray a considerable portion of the expense of the silver coinage has necessitated
the use of tbe appropriation contained in the act for the coinage of the
standard silver dollar. It is believed, however, tbat as the gold coinage
will be diminished, tbe efficient superintendent of that mint will, have
efi'ected, and at the close of the year will be able to show a considerable
reduction in the expenses of the mint.
SAN FRANCISCO MINT.
This mint at its annual settlement made a favorable exhibit of its
condition and operations, and appeared in all its departments to be in
excellent order. The coiner had a small wastage. The melter and refiner's settlement was quite satisfactory aud creditable to him. He returned an excess of $16,685.28 in gold and $1,560.43 in silver above tbe
amount cbarged to him.
The work of this mint in coinage was about the same as in the previous
year, 13,900,000 pieces haAing been struck in 1882, and 14,234,000 in 1881.
Although the value of the gold coinage in 1882 was less, the number of
DIRECTOR
OF THE MINT.
211
pieces executed Avas 334,000 greater than in 1881, while the silver coinage^,
which was wholly of silver dollars, was $460,000 less.
Some official changes occurred during the year. At the commencement Mr. E. F. White superseded F. X. Cicott as coiner, and the suiier^
intendency of the mint, which for over four years had been under the
able and careful management of Mr. H. L. Dodge, was at the close of theyear surrendered to Mr. E. F. Burton, who, although previously appointed
and commissioned, preferred not to enter upon duty until after the annual settlement and with the commencement of a new fiscal year.
CARSON MINT.
The difficulty in procuring silver for coinage was less than that experienced in former years, and coinage operations, which had been pre«
viously suspended, were resumed in the month of October and continued during the remainder of the ,year.
The refinery was kept open during the Avbole year for tbe purchase
of silver and reception of deposits for parting and refining.
The work performed at the Carson Mint, as to the value of the deposits, number of pieces, and value of the coinage, was nearly double
that of the preceding year.
The annual settlement made at the close of the fiscal ye^ir Avas satis-^factory.
NEAV ORLEANS MINT.
Less silA^er was purchased for.coinage at the New Orleans Mint thmia
in the preceding year, and although there was a greater coinage of gold^
the number of pieces and value of the silver coinage was about a milb
ion and a half dollars less than the previous year.
At the cominencement of the year the coiner, Mr. J. W. Helffrich, resigned. Mr. B. F. Butler, his assistant, was designated by the Secretary as acting coiner, and had charge of that department of the min4
until appointment of Mr. F. K. Jones, February 10, 1882, who, as soon
as confirmed, was placed in charge.
NEW YORK ASSAY OFFICE.
Mr. Thonias C. Acton, the superintendent of the New York Assay
Office, whose administration of its afi'airs for over twelve-years had beeii
characterized by a most faithful, efficient, and economical management^
having been tendered a more responsible official position, resigned the
superintendency and delivered the office at the close of the calendar year
to bis successor, Mr. Pierre C. Yan Wyck. During the year deposits
amounting to $35,994,087 in gold and $7,168,260 in silver were receiA^ed>
The silver deposits were nearly $2,000,000 in excess pf those of the preceding year, while the gold deposits were upwards of $63,000,000 less im
amount, owing to a decrease in imports of foreign bullion and coin.
Bars were manufactured to the value of, gold, $35,887,653.08, and silver, $7,092,393.25, being about $64,000,000 less of gold bars and about
$2,000,000 more of silver bars.than were made in the previous year.
DENVER MINT, AND ASSAY OFFICES AT CHARLOTTE, HELENA, BOISEj,
AND SAINT LOUIS.
The value of the gold and sih-er bullion deposited at these institutions, and of the unparted bars manufactured, was much greater than
in the preceding year.
212
REPORT ON T H E
FINANCES.
The charges collected for melting, assaying, and stamping.bars Avere
$1,694.07, and for assays of ores, $2,138. The total earnings of all the
institutions were $4,955.72, some $700 less than in the previous year.
The increased value of the deposits and of the bars manufactured
arose from a greater amount of bullion being received and bars manufactured at the Denver Mint and Helena Assay Office, the deposits of
gold at the former having increased from $235,137.15 to $458,847.07;
silver, from $3,805.77 to $7,053.02; and the A-alue of bars manufactured
from $238,942.92 to $465,900.09.
The growth of business at Helena was, in deposits of gold, from
$568,525.13 in 1881 to $684,475.53 in 1882, and in silver deposits from
$84,314.97 to $145,306.05, and in the value of bars manufactured from
$652,840.10 to $829,781.58.
MONETARY STATISTICS OF THE UNITED STATES.
" Since submitting my last annual report inquiries relatiA'^e to the production, import, export, and consumption of the precious metals, and to
their circulation as money, have been, as heretofore, diligently prosecuted, and much valuable information.obtained.
The facts that have been gathered are here classified and summarized,
and the more important tabulated for convenient comparison or reference.
PRODUCTION
OF
T H E PRECIOUS METALS IN THE UNITED STATES
FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 1882.
At the close of the calendar year 1881, after an extended review of
the production of gold and silver in the mining districts and counties
in the States and Territories, a careful estimate was miade of the total
production of the United States and published in the special report
transmitted by the Secretary of the Treasury to Oongress in June last.
I then estimated the total production for the calendar year 1881 to
have been, of gold, $34,700,000, and of sih-er, $43,000,000; a total of
$77,700,000. The production by States and Territories was estimated

DIRECTOR OF THE MINT.
The production of gold had declined and that of silver increased over
their production in previous years. From the deposits made at the
mints and the exports of domestic bullion there appears to have been a
still further falling off in the production of gold and an increase in tbat
of sih-er.
The deposits of domestic gold at the mints and assay offices during
the calendar year 1881 amounted to $34,271,359.46, and cluring the fiscal
year 1882 to $31,298,511.97, a falling otf of about three millions of dollars. This decline appears to have been in the production of the States
on the Pacific slope. The deposits of domestic gold at the San Francisco and Carson Mints, which amounted to $26,011,017.50 in the calendar year 1881, during the fiscal year amounted to only $22,708,663.44, a
decbne of $3,302,354.06.
During the calandar year 1881 the deposits and purchases of domestic
silver were $27,899,213.12, while during the fiscal year ended June 30,
1882, they had increased to $30,956,588.18, a gain of over three millions
of dollars; but the exports of domestic sih-er, which in the calendar
year were reported, at their commercial value, at $12,796,280, were
reduced in the fiscal year to $11,653,547, a decline in the export of
domestic silver bullion, computed at its coining value, ofabout $1,300,000,
leaAdng the net gain in the silver production for the year over that of
the preceding year about $1,700,000. Making allowance for the same
amount of domestic undeposited gold and silver used in the arts during
the fiscal year as in the calendar year, the total production for the fiscal
vear may be approximately estimated at $31,500,000 for gold and
$44,700,000 for silver.
CONSUMPTION OF THE PRECIOUS METALS.
As the inquiries prosecuted for three years to ascertain the amountof
gold and silver annually used in the United States in manufactures, the
arts, and ornamentation had resulted in obtaining for the year 1881
sufficient data for future approximate estimates, no circulars were sent
for obtaining information as to the amount used during the last fiscal
year. I t was estimated in last year's report that there were annually
consumed in the United States for industrial purposes $11,000,000 of
of gold and $6,000,000 of silver, of which amounts $5,500,000 of gold and
$5,000,000 of silver were estimated to be domestic bullion.
A report was obtained, as usual, from the New York Assay Office,
which is pubhshed in the appendix, and shows the following as the
amount and character of the gold and silver deposited for bars to be
supplied to manufacturers:

For the fiscal year 1882 the consumption, tberefore, of the precious
anetals in the United States for use in the arts, &c., probably exceeded
$12,000,000 of gold and $7,000,000 of silver, of which $7,000,000 of gold
sind $6,000,000 of silver were of domestic production.
COIN CIRCULATION OF THE UNITED STATES.
The total circulation of the United States coin amounted, as nearly
as can be ascertained, on the 1st of July, 1882, to $500,000,000 of gold
and $200,000,000 of silver, a total of $700,000,000.
This estimation is based upon the gains to the metallic circulation by
•coinage less recoinage, and iniports less exports of United States coin
since 1873, at which time I estimated tbe circulation of United States
gold coins at $135,000,000, and of United States silver coins at $5,000,000.
The circulation was estimated in my last annual report to have been,
OT the 30th of June, 1881, $439,776,753 of gold and $171,459,766 ofsilver.
During the year $599,357 of United States gold coin and $127,572 of
United States sih-er coin were deposited at the mints and remelted.
There were also exported of United States gold coin $29,805,289, and
imported $4,796,630, being an excess of exports OA^er imports of
$25,008,659. Of silver coin the imports were $940,877, and the exports
$423,099, being an excess of imports OA^er exports of $517,778. Subtocting from the total gold coinage of the year the recoinage, the excess of exports OA^er imports, and the coins used in the arts, not deposited at the mints or assay offices, estimated at $2,700,000 (based on last
year's estimate of $3,300,000 as the total consumption of such coins),
makes the gain during the year in United States gold coin $61,005,432,
and the total aniount i n ' the country on tbe 1st of July, 1882,
$500,882,185.
In like manner, subtracting from the silver the deposits for recoinage,
mid the estimated consumption of $60,000 undeposited sih'er coins used
in the arts, and adding the excess of imports OA^er exports, makes the
l>'ain to the silver circulation during the year $28,113,594, and the total
silver circulation of United States silver coin on the 1st of July, 1882,
$199,573,360.

By comparing the foregoing tallies for 188i and 1882 it will be seen:
1st. That of the 74J millions of paper and metallic circulation gained
to the total circulation the Treasury received 15i millions, tbe people
gained 71 millions, and the banks lost H i millions.
2d. That of the 61 millions of dollars of gold ooin gained to the circulation the Treasury, in reducing its stock of gold bullion, retained
nearly 18 millions of the resulting gold coin and reduced the outstanding gold certificates $750,000, while the national banks lost $16,500,000
in gold coin and nearly $700,000 of gold certificates, and the general
public gained $60,000,000.
3d. That as to the silver circulation, the silver dollars and silver certificates in the hands of the public, including the banks, at the close of
the-^fiscal year, were over $18,600,000 more than at its commencement,
while the silver coin in the Treasurj^ not represented by outstanding
certificates increased $24,600,000.

The prices of domestic exports, as indicated by an average of thevalues declared at the custom-house, shows an advance of 7 per cent, on
the export prices of the previous year. The advance was principally in
the prices of food exports, such as breadstufi's, provisions, live animals^.
&c., which constituted in value a large portion of the total exports.
The prices of 1882, however, remained below the currency prices of
exports in 1870, being an average of 84 per cent, of the average declared prices of the principal commodities in the latter year. As
United States notes were at that period at a discount of 13 per cent.,
the prices of the exports in 1882 were 3 per cent, below tbe currency
prices of 1870, reduced to the gold standard. A table is also inserted
containing the average yearly prices in°tbe Kew York market for the
Qalendar years 1880 and 1881 of a large number of staple articles, and
the comparative percentage of such prices for the year 1881, on their
prices for the year 1880, and on their average prices for the preceding:
fifty-six years. Tbe quotations for the last two years have been compiled semi-weekly from the New York Shipping and Commercial List, taking for each article, as far as practicable, the same grade and quality
as that usedin preparing the table for my last report. The average of
the percentages of the prices of 1881 compared with the prices of 1880
and with the average prices for the fifty-six preceding years also indicate an advance in prices averaging on the prices of the same articles
for the previous year of 10.6 per cent., and on their average prices for
fifty-six years of 2.7 per cent.
MONETARY STATISTICS OF FOREIGN COUNTRIES.
Additional replies to those published in my last and previous annual
reports have been received from our representatives abroad, containing
valuable information in relation to the monetary statistics of foreign
countries, and are given in full in the axipendix.* The inforniation which
they contain has enabled me to correct the tables of circulation, coinage, and production to later dates.
A condensed statement of the contents of these papers and of the
monetary condition of the countries to which they respectively relate
may be found useful, and is herewith submitted:
GREAT BRITAIN AND COLONIES.
Great Britain and Ireland.—The report of Mr. C. W. Fremantle, the
deputy master of the royal mint of Great Britain, was received at my
office, and found to contain, as usual, much important information, not
giily in regard to the coinage of the mints of the British Empire, but of
the operations of the mints in other countries.
From his report it appears that no gold coinage was executed during
the year 1881 in Great Britain, but the silver coinage exceeded that of
any previous year except 1872 and 1873, and amounted to £997,128,
.equal to $4,852,523, of which £146,175 were transmitted to the British
xjplonies to replace £67,543165. 6d. of worn coin withdrawn. The new
silver coins sent to the colonies in 1880 amounted to £308,940, equal
to $1,503,457, and the worn silver coin withdrawn to £86,425, equal to
;$420,587. The total amount of worn coin withdrawn from circulation
during theyear 1881 in the kingdom was £340,286, equal to $1,656,002.
The value of tbe bronze coinage, pence, half-pence, and farthings, at its
nominal value, was £23,405, equalto $113,900.

The silver coin in circulation has been estimated, for reasons and upon
data given in my previous reports, at more than double the amount
stated by Mr. Bancroft.
Australasia.—O. M. Spencer, consul-general at Melbourne, furnishes
an important report on the production, consumption, and movement of
the precious metals in Australia.
During the year 1881 tbe gold coined in Melbourne and Sydney mints
is stated as £4,047,902=$19,699,115.

The government is at present taking back from France the last installment of silver
fractional curreucy of about 16,000,000 francs, paying for it in tive-franc silver pieces.
The amount of five-franc silver pieces coined by Italy is estimated at 380,000,000
francs, of which it is believed about 160,000,000 or 180,000,000 wiU be out of Italy at
the time of the resumption of specie payments. There is, besides, in the country a
large amount of old silver money coined by the past governments, and which it would
be rather difficult to estimate. The government has lately tried to issue some small
quantity of silver pieces of 50 centimes (5fZ), but they were immediately hoarded for
the payment of custom duties. This wonld have caused a scarcity of change were it
•not for the large quantity of heavy copper money.

the government and banks are solicitons to conceal their affairs. He
gives the product of tbe two lead mines worked by the government,
from 1880 to June, 1882, as 557,092 drams in silver=$71,441, and 2,307 in

running day and night with a view to putting the new coins (8 millions
of gold and 4 millions of silver) into circulation as soon as possible.
The government has issued a decree fixing the value of the old coins
and moneys in circnlation with respect to the new unit of value. This
is the first authorized metallic currency of the republic, the circulating

CIRCULATION OF THE PRINCIPAL COUNTRIES OF THE WORLD.
-
A table giving the paper and specie circulation of thirty-four of tbe
principal countries of the world, total and per capita, has been compiled
from ofecial dispatches and other accessible data.
The paper circulation embraces both bank and government issues
intended to be used as nioney, and tbe total amount of gold and silver
coin in the countries, respectively, without deduction for such amounts
as may be held as treasury or bank reserves, and in most cases probably
includes the bullion as well as the coin ofthe countries.
Tbe total amount of circulation of these countries is $3,825,220,07S
paper, $3,353,673,748 gold coin, $2,182,768,866 silver full legal tender,
$438,000,969 limited legal tender; total specie, $5,974,443,583'; total
circulation, including reserves, $9,799,663,661.
A further table has been prepared stating the government and bank
issues and the reported metallic reserves of gold and silver held in bank
and treasury va:Ults. The total amount of government paper,issue of
thirty-one countries, given in Table No. XXXII, was $1,183,054,771
and the bank issne $2,642,165,307, a total of $3,825,220,078. The metallic reserves io the treasuries and banks of the same countries, as far
as known, amounted to $1,698,986,763.
An additional table is appended in which the amount of the bank and
treasury reserves is deducted from the total metallic and paper circulation, for the purpose of showing, in thirty-five countries, the total
amount in active circulation, which, outside of the banks and treasuries^
was $8,100,676,898. The per capita of active circulation in each of the
countries is also given.
I-have again to acknowledge the faithful and efficient services of the
clerks of the Mint Bureau, among whom Messrs. Preston, Leech, and
Eckfeldt are entitled to special mention for their valuable assistance in
preparing tables and compiling and arranging statistical materialembodied in this report.
I am, very respectfully,

L E G A T I O N OF J A P A N ,
WasMngton, 1st, 10th month, 14 Meiji.
S I R : Under instructions from my governmeot I have again the honor of transmitting to you, for the purpose of having them assayed at the mint o f t h e United States,
a number of cuttings and dips from the coinage of t h e Japanese mint for the financial year 1880-1881. Accordiug to t h e letter from the assayer of the imperial mint, a
copy of which is inclosed for information, the accompanying packet contains three
five-yen pyx pieces of gold coin and one gold cutting from bar, and five silver yen
coins and one granulated dip.
It is hardly necessary for me to add that the kindness with which the Treasury
Department has hitherto responded to the wishes of my government is most fully
appreciated.
Accept, sir, the renewed assurance of my highest consideration.

D E A R S I R : Three five-yen and five silver yen coins, selected this morning by Mr.
Yoshihara, vice-minister of finance, from t h e ' ' p y x " pieces representing the coinage
o f t h e mint for the financial year 1880-1881, have been individually assayed by me.
Ninety-eight, being the remaining five-yen coins, were melted and cast into a har. A
cutting was taken from this har and assayed. Tvvo hundred of the silver yen coins
were melted, a " d i p " was taken from the molten metal and granulated, and the
granules were assayed.
The results are as follows:

The fourth section of the act of June 14,1878 (20 Stat.j 130), provides
that—
I t shall be the duty ofthe several accounting officers ofthe Treasury to continue to
receive, examine, and consider the justice and validity of all. claims under api:)rox3ria
270
REPORT ON THE FINANCES.
tions^the balances of which haA^e been exhausted or carried to the surplus fund under
the provisions of said section t h a t may be brought before them within a period of five
years. A n d t h e Secretary of the Treasury shall rel)ort the amount due each claimant
at the commencement of each session to,the Speaker of the House of Representatives,
who shall lay the same before Congress for consideration: Provided, That nothing in
this act s h a l l b e construed to authorize the re-examination aud paynient of any claim
or account which has been once examined and rejected, unless reopened in accordance
with existing laws.
The ^'period of h.Ye years" mentioned in this section will expire
June 14, 1883, before the Forty-eighth Congress will assemble. I respectfully recommend that you will call the attention of Oongress to
this subject, as it would seem proper that the provision above cited
should be extended.
•
I t may be well to consider whether it is not desirable that there should
be a permanent statute authorizing the examination and report to Oongress of all 'claims under appropriations, the balances' of which have
been exhausted or carried to the surplus fund, which may be brought
before the proper accounting officers within fi\e years after the appropriation was made, or, perhaps, more projierly, within five years after
the right of the claimant originated.
DISBURSING OFFICERS.
Bj" existing law, most of the money with which disbursing officers
make payments is placed to the credit, respectively, of these officers
with an assistant treasurer or designated depository of the United
States, and is disbursed on checks to the order of each claimant
entitled to iiayment. Wlien payment is thus made by check, a voucher
is executed to the disbursing officer, and on such vouchers his accounts
are settled. There is generally no settlement of an account by the
accounting officer of the Treasur^^ Department of the money so deposited.
:
I t is possible that some, if not many, of the disbursing officers' checks
may never be presented for payment, and there is no general mode of
verifying the accuracy of the accounts of depositaries with disbursing
officers.
I respectfully call attention to the subject, so that you may consider
whether it is desirable to recommend to Oongress that provision be
made for the settlement of such accounts.
Under section 310 of the Eevised Statutes the Secretary of the Treasury is every year in receipt,of returns from the proper officers or designated depositaries, reporting outstanding balances to the credit of
disbursing officers or agents which have remained unchanged on the
books of their respective offices for three, years.
Generally, in the cases thus reported, the disbursing officers have long
before ceased to act in that capacity, and in many instances their accounts as such officers or agents have been adjusted and closed on the
books of this Department. •
Frequeiitlj^, after a lapse of three years, in consequence of the death
or unknown residence of the late disbursing officer, it is found impracticable to secure the returns from him, as contemplated by the last
clause of said section, and therefore very difficult to determine to what
fund or appropriation the reported outstanding balance belongs. To
avoid the doubt and difficulty arising in such cases, I respectfully rec-
FIRST COMPTROLLER.
.
271
ommend that said section 310 be amended by an additional provision,
asfollows:
Every disbursing officer of any Department o f t h e Government, on rendering his account at the end of his term of service, shall report therewith whether or not any
public funds remain standing to his credit, as such officer, in any office or, bank or other
depository; a n d i f so, what checks, if any, have been drawn against the same or any
p a r t thereof, which are still unpaid and outstanding.
In this connection I respectfull;^ call attention to the following extract, taken from the Eeport ofthe Secretary, dated December 2, 1878:
By an act approved March 3, 1857, public disbursing officers were required to jplace
all public funds, intrusted*to them for disbursement, on deposit with a i)ublic dexDOSitary, and to draw for the same oiily in favor of the persons to whom payment was to
be raade, excexiting t h a t they might check in their own names Avhen the. x^ayaients
did not exceed twenty dollars.
The enforcement of this provision, according to its letter, was found imx:)raoticable,
and the attention of Congress was called to it in the aunual reports of the Secretary
for 1857 and 1858, with a recommend ation for its modification.
No action in the matter appears to have been taken by Cougress until the act of'
J u n e 14, 1866, reproduced as sectiou 3620 Revised Statutes, was passed. This appeared to suxDcrscde the act of 1857, in removing the restrictions as to the method in
which the money was to be drawn; but by an act apx:)roved February 27, 1877, section ,
3620 has been amended by requiring the checks to be drawn ouly in favor of the persons to whom payments are to be made. .
The object which the law evidently seeks to accomplish meets the entire axiproval
of the department, but to carry its x^i'ovisions into eff'ect would require x^^ymasters
in the Army to draw their checks in favor of the soldiers to be paid, by name, and
paymasters on naval vessels, even during absences for years from tlie UnitedStates, to
pay the officers and jnen only by drawing checks in their favor, on depositaries in the
United States. .
'
,
The same embarrassment extends to all public disbursements, and the attention of
Congress is called to the matter, with the recoramendation t h a t the section be so
amended t h a t disbursements may be made under regulations to be xirescribed by the
Secretary of the Treasury.
The difficulties presented by this statement remain, and hence attention is called to the subject. See Eeport Secretary of the Treasury of
December 5, 1881, and Eeport of 1856-'57, page 24.
D E P U T Y COMPTROLLER.
-The usa^e in this office, which is probably required by law, has been
that the First Gomptroller, when present in person, countersigns all
warrants and signs other official papers. I respectfully recommend
that the Deputy Oomptroller, be authorized, under the direction of the
Gomptroller, to sign all official papers and countersign warrants, except,
perhaps, ''accountable warrants," which require the signature.of the
Secretary of the Treasury himself, when present.
As the duty of signing all official papers is, by law, imposed on the
Deputy as Acting Comptroller in case of the Gomptroller's absence^
and as the time of the Oomptroller, when present, is almost wholly required for the proper examination of questions of law and matters of
official importance, there would seem to be no ground of objection to
the measure proposed.
Under orders of the House of Eepresentatives, a volume of the decisions of the Comxitroller for lhe year 1880, and one for 1881, were
printed, and copies will be furnisheci, fixed in number by law. In addition to these, fifty coxiies were distributed to the Dexiartments in
sheets, as originally printed under the authority of the Treasury Department: The Oomptroller ordeied printed, on his own account and
expense, a limited number of copies, which can, if desired, be furnished

at cost to Departments, or be disposed of otherwise, if Gongress, at its
next session, shall so direct, but if not, they will be disposed of by the
.Gomptroller.
Your attention is respectfully invited to the recommendations contained in my last annual report, the propriety of which seems to me to
be confirmed by observation and experience during the past year.
I have the honor to be, very respectfully,

SECOND COMPTROLLER.
277
The cnrrent work of the office is in a more advanced condition than
it has previously been since the year 1861, the quantity of delayed current accounts having been steadily diminished each quarter year for
several years past, with a corresponding diminution of time between
their rendition and settleraent5 and, except in the settlement of the accounts and claims hereinafter specially referred to, the work of the
office has been promptly dispatched during the year.
Owing to the effect of the decision of the Supreme Court of the
United States in the case of Oapt. E. VV. Tyler vs. the United States,
rendered at the October term, 1881, which changed the mode of computing the longevity increase payable to officers of the Army, a very
great amount of additional work has devolved upon this office in the
adjustment of Army officers' accounts.
In addition to the new work thus originated', it has been deemed necessary to enter upon the.settlement of the accouuts heretofore accrued in
favor of the Soldiers' Home under the act of March 3,1851 (section 4818,
Eevised Statutes), which grants ~to that institution all stoppages and
fines adjudged against soldiers, all forfeitures on account of desertions,
and the custod}^ of the money of deceased soldiers remaining unclaimed
for three years. It is estimated that the amount due to the Soldiers'
Home on these accounts exceeds a million dollars, and that the settlement of these two classes of accouuts will require labor more than
equivalent to that of eight experts for a period of one year.
I t also hapxiens that the number of soldiers' bounty claims transmitted to this office for settlemeut during the last ten months is much
in excess of those transmitted for similar periods within several years
past.
"
"
°
The pressing necessity for early settlement of these three classes of
claims has madeit necessaryto place upon them nearly all the force
heretofore employed in the current work of settling paymasters' Accounts ; thirteen out of the fourteen men on duty in the Army pay division of the office being at present en gaged "thereon.
Whatever means can be lawfully taken to iucrease the number of experts in the revision of Army pay accounts thus accumulating in the
office will be greatly to the advantage^of the service.

W.W.-UPTON,

REPORT ON THE FINANCES.
provided, show a further increase of clerical labor required over that
shown in my report for fiscal year ended June 30,1881, and this clearly
indicates the necessity for an increase in the number of clerks assigned
to this bureau.
In view of the fact that the official work of this office gradually increased for twenty years, as was shown in detail in official report of
1880, and the further fact that this increase of labor continued during
the fiscal years 1881 and 1882, the necessity for greater clerical force is
more clearly demonstrated.
The work for the fiscal year is unprecedented in the history of the
bureau.
The increased number of appropriations for erection of public buildings and for miscellaneous purposes indicates l a r ^ r requirements upon
the office for the fiscal.year ending June 30, 1883.
For the foregoing reasons, and for reasons stated more fully in my
last report, I respectfully and earnestly ask for an additional chief of
division and for at least three clerks of class three.
While I well know that one additional cler'k beyond the necessities of
the public service in any bureau or office is an injury to the service as
well as a needless expenditure of the public moneys, I am convinced
that the increase now "asked grows out of a necessity pressing upon this
office; and I would be derelict in duty should I not call attention to the
condition of the work demanding additional clerical force.
In closing this report, I desire to commend the deputy auditor and
the chiefs of divisions, through whose diligence, energy, and care the
increased Avork of this bureau has been so promptly dispatched during
the fiscal year.
I wish to renew to them and to the clerks and employ6s of this office
expressions of esteem and confidence.
I am, most respectfullv, your obedient servant,

of the Eegular Army, under the act of May 15, 1872, shows that 8,558
deposits were made, amounting to $480,150.69, and that 6,673 deposits,
amounting to $399,032.32 were repaid to soldiers on their discharge from
the service. During the four years that this record has been kept the
deposits have aggregated $1,762,280.24, and the repayments, inclusive
of interest, $1,127,293.73.

PROPERTY DIVISION.
The work of this division is now confined to the examination and settlement of the quarterly returns of clothing, camp and garrison equipage, rendered by all officers of the Army who are responsible for that
description of property. These returns, by which upward of one million dollars worth of property is accounted for annually, are not examined by any other accounting officer, so that the action of this office
is final.
On July 1, 1881, 6,241 returns were on hand unsettled; 3,569 have
since been received; 4,652 have been examined, and 4,132 have been
settled, leaving 5,678 on hand June 30, 1882. Charges amounting, to
$4,178.84 have been made against officers for proxierty not satisfactorily
accounted for, and $1,235.81 has been collected on that account. Letters
written, 2,419; letters recorded, 906.
DIVISION OF INQUIRIES AND REPLIES.
In addition to the 12,937 inquiries from various bureaus which have
been answered during the year, as shown by the subjoined statement,
the following miscellaneous work was performed in this division: 412
rolls and vouchers copied and verified; 3,097 accounts-current, affidavits, abstracts, certificates of disability, final statements, furloughs,
general orders, letters, statements of differences, &c., copied for the
office; 13,790 descriptive lists briefed and filed; 3,557 signatures compared, and 4,131 letters written.
Overpayments amounting to $8,696.50 have been discovered and reported for collection, and the sum of $968.82 on account of overpayments previously reported has been recovered and repaid to the appropriations from which the money was drawn.

PROCEEDS OF INDIAN L A B O R . .
For several years past questions have arisen from time to time, in the
settlement of Indian agents' accounts, as to the proper disposition of
moneys derived from the product of Indian labor, pasturage on Indian
lands, &c. In June, 1876, the matter was referred to the First Comptroller (Hon, E. W. Tajder), who said: " In my opinion, receipts for the
product of labor of Indians and for use and occupancy of their lands
are not public moneys, within the meaning of section 3,618 of the Revised
Statutes, which are to be covered into the Treasury as miscellaneous
receipts. If such moneys should be covered into the Treasury they cannot be withdrawn except on appropriations made by law. While it is
probable such moneys may, under the direction of the Department of
the Interior, be expended for the benefit of the Indians, I am not aware
of any law which provides for it. If the Secretary of the Interior should
deem it proper, I think Congress would direct the mode of expenditure.o'^ Th-e Secretary of the Treasury concurred in this view and recoin
SECOND AUDITOR.
307
mended to the Secretary of the Interior that Congress be requested to
authorize the deposit of such funds to the credit of an appropriation for
the benefit of the particular tribe or band of Indians entitled thereto.
On October 18, 1876, the Secretary of the Interior wrote as follows to
the Commissioner of Indian Aifairs : '^ The money may be expended
under your x'>^rsonal direction, but, as a rule, when the 'm(mey is received for the sale of produce, the result of the labor of any individual
Indian, it should be expended for his sole benefit, and if of any consid-.
erable number less than a band it should be expended for their benefit,
so that in all cases the Indian shall receive the benetit of his or her personal industry." In 18s0 the Second Comptroller and Second Auditor
agreed that in the settlement of Indian agents' accounts all such
moneys should be charged and credited under the special caption of
^^ Indian moneys—x^^^c^'<^<^s ofla.bor, &c."
There can be no d(mbt as to the justice and equity of treating these
moneys in the manner indicated above, but it needs -the authority of
law, and to that end I suggest that the subject be brought to the attention of Congress.
MILEAGE OF ARMY OFFIOERS.
Under section 1273 of the Eevised Statutes, as amended by the act
of July 26, 1876 (19 Stat., 100), officers of the Army traveling under
orders, Avithout troops, are allowed eight cents per mile, provided they
have not been furnished with transportation in kind by" the United
States. I suggest that the law be further amended so that mileage
sliall not be allowed when an officer travels on a free pass. Officers o
the Treasury and Interior Departments, and I presume of all other Executive Dexiartments who present accounts for traveling expenses, are required to make affidavit that '' no x>art of the travel has been under any
free pass on any railway, steamboat, or other conveyance." It is neither
just nor reasonable that officers of the Army should be paid eight cents
per mile while traveling on free passes. In such cases they should be
placed on equality with thecivil officers of the Uriited States, and should
be reimbursed to the extent of their actual and necessary expenses,
and no more. In analogy to what is demanded, under oath, from
Treasury and Interior Department officials. Army officers should be
required to certify on honor that charges for traveling expenses were
actually xiaid or incurred, and that no part of the travel for which thej'claim mileage was made on a free pass on any railway, steamboat, or
other conveyance.
»
THE SOLDIERS' HOME.
By section 4818 of the Eevised Statutes all forfeitures on account of
desertion and all moneys belonging to the estates of deceased soldiers,
reniaining unclaimed for three years subsequent to the death of such
soldiers, are set apart and appropriated ibr the support of the Soldiers'
Home. I find that twenty-one years' arrearages are due said Home on
account of moneys forfeited by those deserters from the regular Army
who were never heard of after desertion. With a few trifling exceptions the accounts of such deserters have not been settled. When the
men were dropped from the rolls of the Army such data as were necessary to an adjustment of their pay accounts were entered on the musterrolls, and there the matter ended. There is also a large sum due the
Home on accountof unclaimed money belonging to the estates of soldiers
308
REPORT ON THE FINANCES.
who died prior to July 1, 1879. The aggregate amount payable to the
Home from these two sources is estimated at uxiward of one million dollars. It is clearly the duty of the accounting officers of the Treasury
Dexiartment to adjust and settle the accounts of deceased soldiers and
deserters so that the Home may receive what the law has set apart and
apxiropriated for its support, but the necessary clerical force is lacking.
I estimate that it would take six experienced clerks five years in this
office, and a proportionate number for the same period in the Second
ComxitroUer's Office, to bring the work uxi to date.
Ill view of all the circumstances, and considering especially the length
of time that the Soldiers' Home has been deprived of a portion of its
legitimate income, I venture to suggest a plan by which an equitable
settlement between, the United States and the Home can be arrived at
without the exxiense and delay of examining and adjusting the xiay accounts of deceased*soldiers and deserters, namely: That Congress shall
appropriate a reasonable amount, say one million dollars, to be dexiosited in the Treasury in accordance with the xirovisions of section 8 of
Senate bill No. 1821, prescribing regulations for the Soldiers' Home,
and now pending in. Congress; said amount to be accepted by the Home
in full discharge of all obligations on the xiart of the United States,
under section 4818 of the Eevised Statutes, u p to and including June
30, 1879.
A STATUTE OF LIMITATION NEEDED.
Adverting t o t h e reniarks in my last annual report in regard to a
statute of limitation, I again invite attention to the subject as one that
calls for early and favorable consideration. There exists a continually
increasing necessity for such a law. It is required, not that the xiayment
of just debts may be evaded, but that the public treasury may be protected from unscrupulous claimants and from the vexatious demands of
persons who, having received all they are entitled to, make new apxilications in the liox)e, apxiarently, that something in their favor may " turn
.UX3" on a re-examination of their claims, or that the evidence of former
payment may not have been xireserved. Of the claims growing out of
the waT of the rebellion only a small xiercentage of those last presented
possess either merit or validity, and that percentage is diminishing with.
the lapse of time, while the labor of examination and investigation is
materially increasing. A statute of limitation that would bar and xireclude from settlement all claims growing out of the late war not inasented vvithin two years frbm the date of the enactment, and all other
claims not presented within six years from the time they accrued would,
I believe, be regarded with favor by all the accounting officers of the
Treasury Department. Without such a statute no child n6w living will
ever see the day when the xiresentation for payment by the government
of claims of the class first mentioned will have ceased.
CONDITION OF T H E PUBLIC BUSINESS.
The condition of the public business intrusted to my charge is shown
by the following comparative statement of accounts and claims received,
disposed of, and remaining on hand in the fiscal years 1881 and 1882:

It will be seen by the foregoing statement that, as compared with last
year's record, there was an increase of 5,483 in the number of accounts
and claims received, and of 5,349 in the number disposed of; and a de^
crease of 1,789 in the number on hand. While the business of the office
is thus shown to be in a satisfactory condition in the aggregate, the
state of disbursing accounts calls for some exx3lanation. The repruiting,
medical, ordnance, and miscellaneous disbursing accounts are promptly
rendered to this office and are settled with sufficient dispatch to prevent
accumulation. The accounts of Indian agents have temxiorarily accumulated, there being 185 on hand June 30, 1882, against 24 on hand
June 30, 1881. This increase is accounted for by the fact that an unusually large number was received from the Indian. Office too late to be
taken uxi for settlement before the close of the fiscal year. The accounts
of paymasters have unavoidably accumulated since June 30, 1880, on
which date only .130 remained unexamined. On June 30,1881, the number had increased to 312, and on June 30, 1882, it had still further increased to 502. This increase is due to two causes, namely, the insuffi:
cient clerical force of the xiaymasters' division, and the complex nature
of the accounts, which now consist, not only of the ordinary bi-monthly
muster and pay-rolls of companies and detachments, final payments to
discharged soldiers, and monthly pay accounts of commissioned officers,
but also of mileage accounts and vouchers for telegrams, expenses of
witnesses before courts-martial, &c. The proper examination of mileage
and telegram accounts adds very materially to the work of the auditing
clerks. The delay in the settlement of paymasters' accounts now averages two years, so that a paymaster does not know how he stands officially onthe books of the Treasury Department until two years after he
has rendered his accounts, neither does the Treasury Department know
until after the same lapse of time whether the paymaster has properly
accounted for the large sums of money advanced to him for disbursement. The law requires that ^' the Secretary of the Treasury shall
cause all accounts of the expenditure of public money to be settled
within each fiscal year" (sectiori 250 Eevised Statutes), and it would
seem to be due to the paymaster and the sureties on his official bond as

well as to the United States, that some measure should be adopted which
will enable the accounting officers to settle these accounts within the
time prescribed by the statutes. The following case is given as a fair
sample of the delay that occurs in the three offices through which an
Army paymaster's accounts pass after leaving his hands:

office, 3§ months; Second Auditor's office, lOf months; Second Comptroller's office, 7J months.
The comparatively slight progress that has been made toward clearing
off accumulated work is chiefly attributable lxi the rexieated demands
upon this office for clerks to assist in other bureaus of the Department.
Emergencies will continue to arise when the power given to the head of
a Department by section 166 of the Eevised Statutes to alter the distribution of the clerks allowed by law and detail clerks credited to one
bureau for service in another must be exercised. At one time, in con.sequence of an unusual amount of labor suddenly imposed upon the
Loan Division and Eegister's office, no less than sixteen clerks on the
pay-rolls of this office were detailed for work elsewhere. At the present
time five are so absent, and the average for the last fiscal year was at
least five. All these were experienced and efficient clerks, for sucli are
always asked for, and none others taken or received.
While the clerical force was nominally the same, 5,349 more accounts
and claims were disposed of than during the preceding year, and the number unsettled diminished by 1,789. The additional work of ^YQ efficient
and experienced clerks would have largely increased these figures. ]^o
bureau of the department needs more than this the entire force accorded
to it bylaw. Of the 38,440 unsettled accounts and claims^ a very large xiroportion has been pending more than five years. It is not surprising, then,
that claimants become importunate and not unfrequently abusive in
their correspondence. They are entitled to a settlement, and it is extremely difficult to give a satisfactory reason for the delay. At the
present time, so far as I am aware, there is no extraordinary demand
upon any of the bureaus of the Treasury Department, and if more clerical
force is needed it should be supplied by legislation. The business of
this office is pressing. It has never to my knowledge had any assistance
from other bureaus; certainly not without according an equivalent by
an exchange, and it is fairly entitled to its legal complement of clerks.
The facts herein set forth as lo the work performed during the year
are sufficiently indicative of the faithfulness and efficiency of the clerical force of the bureau.
Yery respectfully,
O. F E E E I S S , Audiior,

SUBSISTENCE DIVISION.
The subsistence division examines the accounts of all commissaries
and acting commissaries in the Army, whose duties are to purchase the
provisions and stores necessary for its subsistence, and see to their proper
distribution. These commissaries render monthly money accounts, with
proper vouchers for disbursements of the funds intrusted to them, together with a provision-return, showing the disposition of provisions
and stores purchased or derived from other sources. These accounts
are received through the Commissary-General of Subsistence, and are
examined and audited in this division. The money accounts and vouchers, together with a certified statement of the result of said examinations, are then referred to the Second Comptroller of the Treasury for
revision. Upon their return from the Comptroller, with the settlement
approved, the officers are notified of the result, and called upon to adjust
or explain any omissions or errors that may have been discovered. The.
money and provision accounts, together with the papers belonging;^
thereto, are then^placed in the settled files for future reference, and remain permanently in the custody of this office. The engineer branch is
engaged in the examination of the accounts of officers and agents of the
Engineer Department, who, under the direction of the Chief of Engineers of the Army (except the Superintendent of the Military Academy
at West Point, whose disbursements are directed by the Inspector-General), disburse moneys out of the various appropriations, now 248 in
number, made from time to time by Congress for works of a public nature, which m a y b e classed under the following heads, viz: The purchase of sites and materials for and construction and repairs of the
various fortifications throughout the United States; construction and
repairs of roads, bridges, bridge-trains, &c., for armies in the field; surveys on the Atlantic and Pacific coasts; examination and surveys of
the northern and western lakes and rivers; construction and repairs of
breakwaters; repairs and improvement of harbors, both on sea and lake
coasts; improvement of rivers, and purchase of snag and dredge boats
for the same; and the expenses of the Military Academy at West Point.

There have been added to the files during the year new settlements
as follows, viz: Miscellaneous claims, 3,505; raoney accounts of disbursing ofhcers of the Army, 1,463; accounts of agents for paying Army
pensions, 227; property returns of Army officers, 2,298; making a total
of 7,493. A portion of the old settlements have been rearranged and
relabeled, and a large number of mutilated abstracts have been repaired.
All the records a,re now systematically arranged, and the old rooms are
entirely filled. The room formerly occupied b}^ the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, and assigned to this office, is not yet half filled, and it
Avill suffice for at least three years. The records are in a'good state of
lircservation. Four clerks have been constantly employed in arranging and keeping the files in good condition.
There were eight lady copyists employed in this office during the year.
The number of pages copied and compared was as follows, viz: Miscellaneous xiapers, 17,780 pages; difference sheets, 1,480; letters, 5,575;
total, 23,835. The papers received for copying and registered, were:
Miscellaneous, 3,588; diff'erence sheets, 480; total, 4,068.
Under the provisions of section 886 of the Eevised Statutes, in cases
where suit is instituted to collect money due from pension agents, the
transcripts can be certified only by the Eegister of the Treasury,
Avho has nothing whatever to do either with the settlement of said account or the custody of the same after settlement, and who can have no
knowledge respecting the correctness of the transcript, except that
gained from the Third Auditor. The Third Auditor is also without authority to certify transcripts for suit against failing contractors and
other persons charged upon the books of his office. To remedy this
defect in the lavv I resiiectfully suggest that section ^%^ of the Eevised
Statutes ought to be so amended as to provide that upon the trial of a
suit against any person, on a contract with the United States, express
or implied, or against any person accountable for public money, or the
sureties of such person, a transcript from the books and proceedings of
the Auditor of the Treasury Department, charged with the examination and settlement of fhe account with such person or persons, certi

fied by the Auditor and authenticated under the seal of the Treasury
Department shall be admitted on the trial of such suit as evidence of
the balance due to the United States, and be entitled to the same degree
of credit which would be due to the original papers or records if produced and authenticated in court.
By the act of Oongress approved June 23, 1874, and the acj of Congress approved March 3, lb75, authority is given the Secretary of War
to pay the expenses of operating and keeping in repair the telegraph
lines constructed and operated by the War Dexiartment in Texas, ^ e w
Mexico, the Territory of Arizona, &c., out of any moneys received for
dispatches sent over said lines, and any balance remaining after the
payment of such expenses must be covered into the Treasury as a miscellaneous receipt. Under the construction xilaced by the accounting
officers upon the several acts niaking appropriations for the construction, maintenance, oxierating, and keeping in repair the several telegraph lines under the control of the War Department, all funds received
from ^the public for the transmission of private disxiatches (excepting
receixits from line extending from Bismarck, Dak., to Fort Ellis, Mont.)
may be used by the War Dexiartment as hereinbefore indicated, instead
of inaking deposit of the same in the Treasury, and said sums enter into
the gross amount disbursed by the Signal Bureau of the War Department during a given fiscal year, but do not constitute any portion of the
sums sxiecifically approxiriated by Congress in the usual manner, such
funds having never been in the Treasury, thereby showing an excess of
expenditures over amounts appropriated by Congress for that particular
service. Section 3617 Eevised Statutes, second edition, provides that
the gross amount of all moneys re<jeived from whatever source for the
use of the United States, excexit as otherwise x'>i*ovided in section 3618,
shall be paid by the officer or agent receiving the same, into the Treasury at as early a day as xiracticable, without any abatement or deduction on account of salary, fees, costs, charges, exxienses, or claim of any
description whatever. Eeceixits from these telegraxih lines are not embraced within the provisions of section 3618, and are not exceptions to
the general law bearing upon the subject.
I think it requires no argument to show the wisdom of a provision of
law which keexis the expenditure of the xmblic revenue entirely under
the control of Congress;' aud I am of opinion that a wise xiolicy dictates
that every dollar exxiended for the support of the government in all its
branches should be traced directly to the Treasury, and the authority
under which it was drawn therefrom. Inasmuch, therefore, as there
appears to be a conflict between section 3617 of the Eevised Statutes
and the acts recited, I would respectfully suggest the propriety of legislation requiring all moneys received for the transmission of private dispatches over any and all of the lines owued or operated by the general
government, to be deposited in the Treasury.
I respectfully renew my recommendation in regard to a statute of
limitation. Such statutes are no longer looked upon with disfavor by
courts or legislative bodies, and provisions of this kind respecting suits
between individuals are, I believe, nearly universal. That which is
everywhere conceded to be wise aud just as between citizens of a State
can but be considered fair and just as between the citizen and the State,
Few claims that are fair and honest fail of presentation within six years
from their origin, and the claim^int who waits longer, if laboring under
no legal disability, should be barred, in my ox3inion. One thing is certain, no one can be familiar with the business of this office for any period, however brief, without being thoroughly convinced that such a
326

limitation would be' of great value as a protection to the xinblic Treasmy, would remove a great temptation from the viciously inclined, and
would give much needed relief to the Executive Dexiartments.
I take xileasure in bearing testimony to the general good character,
intelligence, and diligence ofthe xiersons employed in this bureau, and
commend them for the faithful manner in which they have discharged
their duties.
Eespectfully submitted.

REPORT
OF
THE FOURTH AUDITOR OF THE TREASURY.
TREASURY D E P A R T M E N T ,
F O U R T H AUDITOR'S O F F I C E ,
Washington, N'ovemher 1, 1882.
S I R : In accordance with the law requiring the Auditor charged with
the examination of the accounts of the Dexiartment of the 'N^LYJ to report
annually, on the first Monday in November, to the Secretary of the
Treasury, the application of the money appropriated for the Navy Dexiartment, I have the honor to submit the following tabular statements
for the fiscal year ending June' 30,1882, with such comments and explanations as they seem to require at my hands.
Disbursing officers in foreign waters, as authorized bylaw, make their
payments from a fund (which has been drawn from the Treasury under
a **general account of advances,") charging each particular payment to
its xiroper axixiropriation, subject to revision here. Monthly statements
of these exxienditures are made to this office. Many of them, of course,
are not received until weeks, in some cases months, after the close of
the fiscal year, but all were in when the table immediately following
was made up, and which is designed to exhibit the several appropriations made by Congress, and the exxienditures with which they are proxierly chargeable, as shown by the reports of the officers who have disbursed the money. Pay officers at home draw money under the respective heads of appropriation, keeping in hand sufficient sums to meet
current liabilities, and returning unavailable balances to the Treasury,
as required by laAV. Axiproxiriations with balances to their credit will
still be drawn upon to meet liabilities lawfully incurred during thefisoal
year. Payments of the latter character are shown in this table where
expenditures under appropriations for years prior to 1882 are mentioned.
I t will be observed that the aggregate payments during the year are a
little less than the aggregate of the axipropriations for 1882. Some
appropriations have been overexpended, some deficiencies have already
been made good by appropriations, while others remain for the future
consideration of Congress. A deficiency not made good by a subsequent
apxiropriation must fall at last upon the continuous appropriations—to
wit, Pay of the Navy and the Marine Corps. To the credit of these
appropriations there were standing at the beginning of the fiscal year:
Pay ofthe Navy, $1,747,521.73, and Pay ofthe Marine Corps,$798,7i2.25.
These sums have been added to their respective apxiropriations in the
following table, making the amounts available for the year for pay of
officers and men:

Pay officers are instructed to draw on the Secretary of the ^N'avy
when such bills can be as advantageously sold as those drawn on London. I t will be seen that the drafts on the Secretary during the past
year were very considerably increased over those of the two previons
years. In the autumn of 1881, Paymaster Foster sold in Yokohama,
Japan, bills to the amount of $156,000 on the Secretary, and received
$771.82 more than he would had the same amount been sold on London. The condition of the market was rather exceptional at that time,
due largely to the fact that .London was sending large sums to New
York to pa3^ the balance of trade then in our favor. I t seems probable
that conditions which will be favorable to the sale of United States bills
will increase, as our own trade is extended to distant nations, and as
the balance of trade is favorable to us in our transactions with European
countries. London is still the money center, the workPs clearing-house,
and is likely to remain so for many years to come. Our progress in
that direction is not very rapid, but it must in the end be sure. The
above tables are indications pointing that way.
In accordance with the suggestion made in my report two years ago
some of the pay officers are in the habit of sending with their report of
sales clippings of market reports in the daily iiapers of even date, show- •
ing that they have obtained the highest market rates, or even better at
times when active competition has been invited. The following extract from a letter of Paymaster Foster, written at Yokohama, Japan,
February 10, 1882, will illustrate this:
I inclose a cutting from the Japan Gazette, o.f Yokohama, Japan, of February 9,
1882 (evening edition), showing the rate of exchauge on the day of sale for silver yen,
in whicli t h e bill was negotiated. The published bank selling rates Avere 3s. SH.
sterling for bank bills on demand on London, aud 90 cents United States gold, on
New York, per silver yen. Bids were requested from five banks, aud the best rates
obtainable were 3s. S^d. sterliug, and 91 cents, respectively, per silver yen. The-sterling exchange shows bnt a reasonable difference betweeu the buying and selling price,
but on •Washington exchange the margin is larger, owing to the expected rise in
exchange between New York and London, on account of the close of the American
export season. The bill was drawn ou London, t h a t rate beiug more favorable by
$34.02, Uuited States coiu, and it will probably continue so for several mouths.
Washington exchauge was more favorable from September, 1881, to January, 1882,
inclusive.
ACCOUNT W I T H SELIGMAN BROTHERS.
A coDimission of 1 per cent, is paid to Seligman Brothers, London, for
disbursements made by them. Their commissions for the year amounted

REPORT ON THE FINANCES.
to $14,760.36. They pay 4 per cent, interest on daily balances remaining on deposit with them; and receive 5 per cent, interest on advances
they make. The interest paid by them during the year was $4,969.56;
and that received $1,650.27, making the net interest received by the department $3,319.29. Money is tranferred to London from Kew York by
means of sixty-day bills. Exchange was favorable during the greater
part of the year, and the net gain from this source was $7,220.16.
THE PUBLIC CREDIT.
I have respectfully to suggest in reference to the work of the London fiscal agents that it could be equally well done by one of the 'Nsbvj
Department's own disbursing officers, thereby saving the commission
now paid, and adding otherwise but little to current expenses. Such a
change wonld also comport with the dignity and character of the Government, which should be able to transact its business at home and
abroad by the agency of its own citizens and officers. There are in the
pay corps of the ISTavy men of ample experience and ability for such a
trust, also of high and unquestioned character. If this suggestion should
not be thought feasible, then at least the commission paid should be reduced to not more than one-half of what it now is. One-half of 1 per
cent, would be ample coinpensation for paying out this money. At the
time the present commission was adopted, forty years ago or more, the
credit of the country was not very high, and it needed the name of a banking house to make its paper current. Upon this point it is instructive
to refer to the annual message of President Tyler, of Becember, 1842.
Speaking of an effort of the Government to make a small loan he says:
After a failure to do so in the American market, a citizen of high character aud
talent was seut to Europe with no better success; and thus the mortifying spectacle
has been presented ofthe inability of this government to obtain a loan so small as not
in the whole to amount to more than one-fourth of its ordinary anuual income, at a
time w^ben the governments of Europe, although involved in debt, and with their subjects heavily burdened with taxation, readily obtain loans of any amount at a greatly
reduced rate of iuterest.
In 1844, Benjamin K. Curtis, late justice of the Supreme Court of the
United States, published in the North American Eeview a very able and
eloquent article on the importance of maintaining the public faith, in
.which he refers to this attempt to borrow nioney, saying:
I t was offered on terms most advantageous to the creditor—terms which in former
times would have,been eagerly accepted, aud after going begging through all. the exchanges of Europe, the agent gave up the attempt to obtain mouey iu despair. I t is
impossible to believe that any capitalist refused to lend his money because he doubted
the ability of the United Sfcates to pay their debts. Nor is ifc credible that the mere
failure of a few of the Sfcate governmeuts to meet their engagements w^ould have produced this extraordinary eff'ect. Ifc is the truth, and it should sink into the heart of
every American, t h a t this loau was refused because Europe doubted the honor of this
country.
It can be readily understood that, at that time, a draft on a respectable London bank was a great deal better than a draft on the Government of this conntry. I t is unnecessary to say that all this has changed.
Our public credit does not now require the support of any private firm
or corporation, and it is not good economy to continue paying for that
which we no longer need.

REPORT ON T H E FINANCES.
war with Mexico, and amount to the sum of $2,672.70. There had been previously settled of these claims 1048, and payments made of $43,501.68.
The act just referred to provides that the gratuity is to be paid subject to the limitations of the act of July 18,.1848. As has been previously stated in one of my reports, that law was passed for the exclusive
benefit of persons who were employed in the military service duringthe
Mexican war, and liniited the payment to those who ''served out their
term of engagement, or have been or may be honorably discharged,"
and to the widows, children, &c., of those ^'who have been killed in
battle, or who died in service, or who, having heevi honorably discharged,
have since died, or may hereafter die, without receiving the three mouths'
pay.'' The term honorably discharged, as used in the law, applied to
the enlisted men and to the volunteer officers of theArmy who received
an honorable discharge when mustered out at the close of the war, or
when their services were no longer required. It will be seen, therefore,
that the ^limitations" of the law of 1848 necessarily excluded those
officers of the ISTavy and Marine Corps who resigned their positions or
remained in the service, and also the heirs of those who resigned or
died in the service after the 19th of July, 1848. Bills have been introduced designed to change the act of 1879 so that its benefits may be
shared by all, whether in the regular or volunteer Navy, who participated in the Mexican war and were not discharged or dismissed for
dishonorable conduct during its continuance; but they have made little
or no progress, and the matter remains in statu quo.
MILEAC^E FOR TRAVEL ABROAD.
Apparently from the foundation of the Navy, certainly from 1835, it
had been the practice to pay mileage for travel at home and actual expenses abroad. In 1874 all mileage was abolished by act of Congress.
In 1876 mileage was re-established for travel in the Navy, and under the
advice of the Attorney-Gen eral the old practice of paying actual expenses abroad was continued. The question of the legality of this practice v^as tested in the case of Temple vs. the United States, and decided
by the United States Supreme Court against the defendants. Of the
above-settled claims 253, amounting to $63,254.94, were adjusted in accordance with this decision. An additional nuniber have been adjusted
and paid since the close of the fiscal year, and others continue to be received. At the late session of Congress a provision was added to the
naval appropriation bill giving legal sanction to what had been so long
the practice—namely, the payment of actual expenses only for travel
abroad. Claims for mileage, arising under the law of 1835 (in force
until 1874), are still pending in the Court of Claims. A large number
have also been received by this ojffice, but no action will be taken until
a final decision has been reached in the courts.
PAYMENTS TO MACHINISTS.
Of the above-settled claims 47, amounting to $28,764, were allowed
under the act of June 16, 1880, giving gratuities to discharged machinists in lieu of re-enlistment, one-third of one year's pay for each goodconduct badge, not to exceed three in number. A fair proportion of
the claimants have three of these badges, entitling them to a year's
extra pay, $918. There have been reported previously 51 of these settled claims, aniounting to $27,540. Claims under this act are still
being received.

L O N a E V l T Y CLAIMS.
Under the decision of the court in the Tyler case only seveii claims
of marine officers had been settled at the close of the year, involving
the sum of $1,249.89. This decision is held in the Department of Justice as not applicable to longevity claims in the Navy; and such claims
will be contested in the Court of Claims, where one is now jiending,
and, probably, in the Supreme Court. Until a decision is reached no
action will be taj^en on similar claims now in this office.

NEW ORLEANS PRIZE-MONEY.
I regret to have to say that Congress have as yet made no appropriation to pay what is known as the ''third installment of New Orleans
prize-money." Besides the vessels captured by the fleet under the
command of Admiral Farragut, during the engagements near Forts
Jackson and Saint Philip, a large nuniber of vessels were destroyed,
for which the court, in 1873, awarded the sum of $268,600. At the
date of the award there was in the Treasury, after paying fees, &c., but
$93,865.20 to the credit of the appropriation ^' Bounty for the destruction
of enemies' vessels." This amount was distributed to all the captors.
There remains to be appropriated by Congress the sum of $143,644.47.
There are several thousand persons directly interested as creditors in
this matter. This money is as justly due as that arising under any
other obligation of the government. The claimants are worthy men

entitled to the money which has been awarded to them by the proper
court. If Congress failed to provide for the interest on the public debt,
or the principal when due, it would be recognized as a national disgrace.
So, also, if they neglected to appropriate the money to meet the claims
-settled by the accounting officers or judgments rendered by the United
^States courts against the Government, it would be regarded as highly
Teprehensible, and discreditable to our whole people. The clainis of
-officers and seamen for this New Orleans prize-money-^claims properly
adjudicated andjudgment given—are just as valid as those named, and
they ought to be i)aid with the same promptitude that all other lawful
obligations are paid. It is respectfully urged that there is no shadow
of a reasonable excuse for longer delay on the part of Congress.
ABOLITION OF PRIZE-MONEY.
I t has been suggested that prize-money ought to be abolished; and
one or more amendments were offered to the last naval appropriation
bill to accomplish this purpose, but they were ruled out of order, and
no direct vote was reached upon them. It Avoiild seem that this is a
move in the right direction and in accordance with the spirit of the age,
as well as with the laws and regulations governing the military arm of
the public service. It would be difficult, perhaps, to give any good
reason wdiy captures made at. sea should be awarded to the captors any
more than captures made on land. The hopes of such prizes may stimulate to greater exertion in the naval service, and in naval engagements
particularly, as they would, doubtless, in military enterprises on land;
but in both cases would it not be better to rely on the honor, the sense
of duty, the courage, the discipline, and the patriotism of officers and
men, rather than upon the hope of incidental pecuniary reward? The
inequalities, jealousies, and dissatisfactions growing out of the distribution of prize-money are proverbial, and can be remedied only h j a
discontinuance of this relic of ruder ages.

ACCOUNTS OF DISBURSING- OFFICERS.
I am pleased to report that, as a rule, the accounts of the disbursing
officers of the Navy have been promptly and accurately rendered during the year, showing a clear sense of responsibility, and a laudable
purpose to discharge ttieir important duties with the utmost fidelity.
There have been some exceptions, but it is believed that these are
diminishing, and that there is an increasing sense of honor and accountability apparent, which promises well for the future of this branch of
the service. The disbursements of the year have been made without
loss to the Government so far as accounts have been examined in detail,
and it is believed that final settlements will exhibit this gratifying result.
VISITORS TO NAVAL ACADEMY.
The act of Febraary 14, 1879, provides that there shall be appointed
every year a board of visitors to attend the annual examination at the
NavalAcademy. This board consists of twelve members, seven of
them appointed by the President of the United States, two Senators
appoiuted by the Yice-President or President pro tempore of the Senate,
and three Eepresentatives appointed by the Speaker of the House.
The act also provides that each member of this board shall receive not
exceeding eight cents per mile traveled by the most direct route from
his residence to Annapolis, and eight cents per mile for each mile from
said place to his residence on returning. For the expenses of this board
of visitors Congress appropriates $2,600 annually. The manner in
which this sum was expended in the last fiscal year is shown by the
following statement:

L. G. BILLINGS, .
Paymaster, U. S. N., Commissary, N. A.
The remainder of the appropriation was exhausted in the payment
of mileage. I respectfully suggest that the appropriation of a gross sum
for the paynient of expenses of this kind is unwise, as the above bill
abundantly shows; and that it would be better to follow the usual
practice of paying a per diem and mileage and permitting the members
of the board to pay their own expenses, as do nearly all other officers,
aigents, and employ6s of the Governnient. There are comfortable hotels
at Annapolis, and there can be no good reason given why they should
be ignored and such public expenditures made as the above statement
exhibits.
THE CIVIL SERVICE.
In acknowdedging my obligations to the deputy anditor, Mr. B. P .
Davis, to the chiefs of divisions, the clerks and employes generally of
344
REPORT ON THE FINANCES.
this office, I am constrained to say a few words concerning the civil
service here in Washington as it has come under my observation, with
some suggestions as to its permanency and further improvement. I t
is well known to those acquainted with this service by practical exXierience, that it is not nearly so bad as it is frequently painted by persons who have not had such experience. The improvements in the
niethods of doing business and in the personnel of the Departments have
been marked during the last twenty years, as many clerks can testify
whose service extends over the greater part of that time. There has
been a survival of the fittest. The inefficient and those wanting in
good character have been dropped, while the capable, the careful, and
the upright have been retained. So that the service to-day, to say the
least, is in a very fair condition.
There are in this bureau, as there are doubtless in every one, clerks
who are receiving but moderate salaries whose capacity and experience,
Avere they available in private business, would command not only much
better compensation, but would insure to their owners positions of independence and influence in any community. The services of such employes are very valuable to the Government, and, as long as they remain so, they ought to be retained. To secure permanency in this
service and to insure its future efficiency and still further improvement,
two or three simple enactments are suggested :
1. Thelaw at present requires that '^appointments in the Tieasury
Department shall be so managed as to be equally distributed between
the several States, Territories, and the District of Columbia, according^
to population." This principle should be applied to all of the Departments, thus keeping up the representative idea.
2. As is well known, much of the time of the heads of Departments,
Senators, and Eepresentatives is now taken up in listening to and presenting the reasons why certain persons should be given places. For
days and weeks after President Garfield was inaugurated, the Secretaries ofthe Treasury and Interior w^ere overwhelmed with work of this
kind. To obviate this and to make the service equally open to all, let
the law provide that a suitable examination—competitive probably the
best—under established general rules, shall take place in the State or
congressional district where the applicant resides. Commercial colleges, business men, and literary institutions could easily be found
doubtless Nvho would, free of expense to the Government, furnish the
requisite boards for conducting these exaniinations. Clerical vacancies in the Departments and new positions would then be filled by requisitions on States or districts entitled to receive appointments. The
home examination should be safficient to entitle the applicant to a probationary appointment for a few months, upon the expiration of which
he should receive a permanent one, if proved to be qualified.
3. A fixed tenure of office of five or seven years, (with privilege of reappointment,) during which the appointee could not be removed except
for inefficiency or bad conduct.
4. Promotions, other things in the aggregate being fairly equal, as
shown by suitable examination, to be in accordance with seniority of
service.
It appears to me, from such "reflection as I havebeen able to give the
subject, that a law embodying these suggestions would relieve the civil
service in Washington of the odium now attaching to it, and Cabinet
officers and Congressmen of much laborious, vexatious, and profitless
work,- while many thousands of our fellow-citizens would be saved
time, money, and self respect, which are now lost in weary journeying,

waiting, and beseeching only to find at last that there are no places for
them, and the ratio of applicants to vacancies is as twenty or more to
one. The service, also, which is the g:reat point to be gained, wonld be
rendered in due time vastly more permanent and efficient than it could
reasonably be expected to be where numerous and frequent changes
may be made by the whims of individuals, the pressure of partisans, or
the varying fortunes of political parties.

Washington, Octoher 31, 1882.
S I R : I have the honor to submit herewith the annual report of this
office for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1882.
DIPLOMATIC AND CONSULAR SERVICE.
The accounts of ministers and others in the diplomatic service (*Exhibit A) show that there were paid for salaries $310,627.24 and for contingent expenses $69,525.23, aggregating $380,162.47. Passport and
official fees amounted to $3,724.21.
The Eevised Statutes classif}^ the consulates-general, consulates, and
commercial agencies into three classes: 1. Those embraced in a schedule known as Schedule B, the incumbents of which receive a fixed salary,
and are not allowed to engage in private business. 2. Those embraced
in a schedule known as Schedule C, the incumbents of which receive a
fixed salary and are allowed to engage in business. 3. All other consulates the incumbents of which are compensated by the fees collected
in their offices and are allowed to transact business. In tabulating
consular accounts for fees, salaries, and other expenditures (^Exhibits B,
C, D, E, and F) this classification has been observed. The following
are the totals presented:

REPORT ON T H E
FINANCES.
CONSULAR F E E S .
The revised tariff of fees which took effect in October, 1881, not only
changed the character of many fees from official to private, but materially reduced the charges for certain services. The fee for '' acknowledgments,'' for exaniple, Avas cut down from $2.50 and $2 to $ 1 ; ^^authenticating signatures" from $2 to $ 1 ; ^^orders and letters" from $2
to $1, and several shipping certificates from $2 to $1, while ^4anding
certificates " were fixed at $2.50, uniformly, except on the Eio Grande,
Mexico. Notwithstanding this very considerable decrease, the fees received are $46,774.19 in excess of those for the year 1881, showing a
decided increase in the buvsiness transacted.
In this connection I desire to call attention to the table (^Exhibit I),
indicating the sources from which official fees were derived. The following are the totals given:

R E C E I P T S AND INVOICES.
A law passed in August, 1856 (section 4213 Eevised Statutes, 1878)
makes it the duty of owners, agents, consignees, masters, and commanders of vessels to furnish copies of consular receipts for fees to collectors
of ports, who shall forward them, as well as statements of all certified
invoices, to the Secretary of the Treasury. During the past year an
effort has been made to comply with the provisions of this act, the plain
intention of it being to furnish evidence of the correctness of consular
returns of official fees and charges. The work which was entirely new
to this oifice, has been prosecuted under difficulties arising from incomplete returns and insufficient clerical force; but it has progressed far
enough to indicate that the law, Avhen properly complied with, is sufficient for the purpose intended. The additional clerical force allowed
this office by the appropriation act of August 5,1882, will enable the
work to be done promptly, the importance of which is too obvious to
require further remark.
R E L I E F OF SEAMEN.
Thirteen hundred and eighty seanien were relieved during the year
at an average cost of about $22.50 each, and seven hundred and four
were sent to the United States on certificate payable at the Treasury

Excess of relief over extra wages and arrears

As extra wages and arrears are devoted to purposes of relief, the
actual outlay by the government is thus reduced to less than one-sixth
of the entire amount expended. In other words, of the $60,000 appropriated by Congress for the relief of destitute American seamen, less
than $7,000 have been used.
'
Although the relief afforded for 1882 is less than for many years, as
will be seen by reference to the tabulated statement below, I am,of
opinion thatthe sum paid is considerably larger than it need be. Extending relief to seamen who are properl}^ entitled to it is often attended with
much difficulty, and it is perhaps not surprising that in some instances
consularofficers cannot discriminate between the deserving and undeserving. In a circular letter addressed them by this office in April
last, with the approval of the First Comptroller, mention was made of
the fact that in several cases the seamen relieved never served upon
the vessels reported, and that in one instance no such vessel sailed
under the American flag. It was also stated that seamen sent from
one consulate to another often received clothing at both places, the
second supply being given within a week after the first was received.
Since the reception of this circular greater care seems to have been
exercised.
In this connection it is proper to add that consuls are often called
upon to relieve unworthy persons whose demands they cannot refuse.
A careful study of the returns shows that about ten per centum of those
relieved are ^ deserters," many of whom are little better than tramps,
*
who seize upon every opportunity to desert their vessels and live at
the expense of the Government which they disgrace. Yet under existing regulations consular officers find it difficult to avoid aiding them.
The precedent seems long to have been established that an American
seaman ivho is also an American citizen is entitled to relief, except only
when actually employed upon a foreign vessel. He may desert and
take employment upon a railroad, or conceal himself until his vessel
sails, and immediately thereafter return to the consulate and obtain
relief. Several cases of this character have been reported during the
past year, the relief being given solel}^ for the reason that the seamen
were citizens of the Tlnited States.
I t would be a manifest hardship to withhold relief from ^' deserters"
in all cases, for men are frequently driven to desertion by unusual or
cruel treatment. But it would clearly be better for all parties in interest if consular officers were authorized to relieve this class of seamen
only when it is satisfactorily ascertained that the desertion is justifiable
regardless of the seamanh citizenship. The course pursued at presento
* See note at foot of page 356.

not only operates as an incitement to desertion, but compels the consul
to grant relief in cases manifestlj^ undeserving.
G^ROWTH OF CONSULAR BUSINESS.

O F F I C E OF THE A U D I T O R OF T H E T R E A S U R Y
FOR THE POST-OFFICE DEPARTMENT,
Washington, D. 0., Novemher 6, 1882,
S I R : I have the honor to submit the report of the business operations of this office for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1882.
My annnal report to the Postmaster-General exhibits:i)in detail the
financial transactions of the Post Office Department during the last
fiscal year.
*
•

The increase in the business of this office during the past year has
been very great, not only by the addition of new post-offices, but by the
growth in the'business of those already existing, and in both the postal
and money order branches. There has also been a great increase in
the number of new mail-routes, and of changes in old routes, owing to
our extended railroad system. This rapid growth and increase of business has brought with it augmented revenues, which has not only made
the post-office system self-sustaining, but has carried more than a million and a half dollars into the Treasury the past year, instead of taking
millions out, as heretofore. The present year will greatly swell this net
surplus to be carried into the Treasury.
This increase of business, with the added work from the removals and
change of quarters during the year has kept the office short-handed,
notwithstanding the addition to the clerical force last year, and the
faithful and diligent labors of the clerks, a large portion of whom have
worked more than the established office hours to keep up their work,
and more than justifies the required increaseof Ibrce for the coming
year.
In closing this report, I desire to call your attention to the tenure by
which the Sixth Auditor's Office occupies rooms in the post-office building, and the building rented for money-order business. Since the erection of the Post-Office Building it has been jointly occupied by the PostOffice Department and the Sixth Auditor's Office; and no law, so far
as I arn aware, gives control of the bnilding to either party. When
Congress was asked, in 1863, to put the control of the building in t h e
hands of the Postmaster-General, it refused or neglected to do so. The
NOTE.—A summary of the principal labors performed by t h e several Divisions of
this office, here omitted for want of space, will be found in the pamphlet edition of
the Auditor's report.
359

REPORT ON THE FINANCES.
question of control now arises from the incapacity of the building to
afford room for the transaction of post-office business and the auditing
of post-office accounts. The number of employ(^s occupying these buildings is in the proportion of six and a third to the Treasury Department,
and ten to the Post-Office Department. When the money-order busi. ness was removed from the Post-Office Building, by order of the Postmaster-General, to the new quarters rented for its use, twelve rooms on
the first floor of the Post-Office Building, which were still occupied by
Treasury clerks (as they had been for twenty or more years), were desired by the Post-Office Department, and the Sixth Auditor was ordered
by the Postmaster-General to vacate these rooms and go to others upon
the third floor. He protested against the removal on account of the
great inconvenience it would occasion for the transaction of the business of his office, and besides suggested the inequitable assignment
which had been made, and the absence of any law which authorized
one Department of the Government to remove at its pleasure the employes of another Department from quarters which had been occupied
by them from the erection of the Post-Office Building, or changed by
joint consent, all of which was unheeded.
I t is manifestly right and proper that the Post-Office Department
should have all the room which it needs for the performance of its business and the full custody and control of i t ; and ifc has no more than it
needs. It is also equally right and proper if a bureau of the Treasury
Department is to occupj^ a part of the Post-Office Building that it should
have some rights to the space occupied, and not be subject to removal
at the pleasure of another Department, or dependent upon it for its supplies and repairs. The employes of the Treasury Department still remaining in the Post-Office Building are two-fifths as many as are employed by the Post-Office Department. In the new building rented for
money-order business nearly three-fourths of the employes belong to the
Treasury Department, yet it is claimed that they are dependent upon
the Post-Office Department for their quarters, supplies, and repairs.
For these reasons I suggest that the tenure by which this bureau of
the Treasury Department holds its quarters be established by law.
I am, sir, very respectfully,
J« H. ELA,
Auditor.

REPORT OF THE TREASURER OF THE UNITED STATES.

REPOET
OF
THE TREASURER OF THE UNITED STATES.
TREASURY OF THE UNITED STATES,
Washington, D. C, Novemher 1, 1882.
SIR : I have the honor to subniit a report showing the operations of
the Treasury of the United States for the fiscal year 1882, and its condition on June 30,1882.
SUMMARY OF OPERATIONS.
The receipts of the government show an increase over those of 1881
of $22,251,054.23 in the revenue from customs; $11,233,209.94 from internal revenue; $2,551,277.20 from sales of public lands, and $6,707,416.34 from miscellaneous sources, making a total increase in the net
revenue of $42,742,957.71. The total net revenue was $403,525,250.28.
The net expenditures decreased from $260,712,887.59 to $257,981,440.20,
a reduction of $2,731,447.39, which, added to the increase in receipts,
makes an increase of $45,474,405.10 in the surplus revenues applicable
to the reduction of the public debt. The expenditures on account of
interest on the public debt show a reduction of $11,431,534.39, from
$82,508,741.18, in 1881, to $71,077,206.79, in 1882. The excess of revenues over expenditures was $145,543,810.08, and the amount applied
to the reduction of the debt $166,281,505.55.
'
The amount standing on the books of the Treasury to the credit of
disbursing officers of the United States at the close of the fiscal year
was $36,067,872.48.
The receipts for the fiscal year on account of the Post-Office Department were $41,368,062.30, and the expenditures $39,265,299.43. Of these
amounts $20,211,991.78, or about one-half, was received and expended
directly by postmasters, without being deposited in the Treasury.
The unavailable funds of the Treasury decreased from $29,521,632.72
to $29,517,275.32 by reason of the collection of $4,357.40 of the $8,750.31
heretofore reported as unavailable in the sub-treasury in New York on
account of counterfeit 7.30 notes redeemed in 1867. The unavailable
funds of the Post Office Department remain unchanged at $40,078.06.
The amount collected from national banks on account of semi-annual
duty accruing on their capital, circulation, and deposits during the year
was $9,150,684.35. The total amount collected on this account since
the beginning of the national banking system is $118,005,706.25.
There, were in the custodj^ of this office at the close of the fiscal year
$376,647,700 in United States bonds held in trust for national banks, of
which $360,722,700 were held as security for circulation and $15,925,000
to secure deposits of public money with national-bank depositaries.
During the year $129,474,400 in bonds were deposited for these purposes and $128,628,100 withdrawn.
363
364
REPORT ON T H E

of failed, liquidating, and reducing national banks, making the total
redemptions since the first issue of currency $2,405,914,779.41.
The issues of silver certificates during the year were $24,300,000 and
tfie redemptions $20,133,290, leaving the amonnt nominally outstanding
at the close of the year $66,096,710. ^

United States bonds amountingto $11,088,609.02, and there were issued
by the Treasurer 321,623 checks on the Treasurer and assistant treasurers of the United States, amounting to $57,547,821.20, in payment of
interest on registered bonds.
There were also issned 32,550 drafts on warrants of the Secretary of
the Treasury, 38,853 drafts on warrants of the Postmaster-General, and

The most noteworthy change in the last year is the decrease of the
gold coin and bullion, held by the Treasury, from $176,791,566.41 to
$153,047,964.12, and the increase of the standard silver dollars from
$65,949,279 to $92,025,350; a decrease in the gold of $23,743,602.29, and
an increase in the silver dollars of $26,076,071. Deducting the amount
held for the redemption of gold certificates, the gold belonging to the
government in the Treasury on the 30th of September was $154,987,371.29
in 1879; $128,160,085.77 in 1880; $169,552,746.41 in 1881, and $148,140,524.12 in 1882. Notwithstanding the decrease in the last year, the
gold owned by the governinent is nearly $20,000,000 more than two
years ago, the amount held last year having been swelled by the deposit
of gold coin for exchange on the West and South.
Deducting in like manner the silver certificates actually outstanding,
the standard silver dollars owned by the government were $30,366,054
on September 30,1879; $35,355,363 on the same date in 1880; $13,108,839
in 1881, and $28,699,970 in 1882.
The fund for the redeniption of notes of national banks which have
failed, gone into voluntary liquidation, or made deposits of lawful
money for the reduction of their circulation, increased during the year
from "^$31,152,713.60 to $38,507,029.10; the silver certificates actually
ontstanding, after deducting the amount held by the Treasury, from
$52,840,440 to $63,325,380; the United States notes on han(:l, from
$28,422,170 to $32,918,256, and the fractional silver coin held, from
$26,343,477.17 to $27,429,246.56. The aggregate amount of gold and
silver coin and bullion held by the Treasury increased from $269,706,998.76 in 1881 to $276,144,150.05 in 1882. The aniount now held is
$53,336,782.04 greater than that held in 1879, and $61,840,934.67 greater
than in 1880. The gross assets ofthe Treasury increased during the

year from $331,981,210.11 to $346,552,990.39, although the balance remaining after deducting the moneys held for the redemption of gold,
silver and currency certificates, and for the payment of matured debt and
interest, and the amount to the credit of special or trust funds, ran down
from $151,336,116.73 to $143,964,893.79.

The above liabilities are the net liabilities after deducting the redeemed or unissued obligations of the various classes held by the
Treasury.
The reserve is computed by deducting from the cash in the Treasury
the aggregate of the current liabilities other than United States notes.
The remainder of $135,151,688.99 is considered to be the reserve available for the redemption of United States notes. In other words, if all
of the liabilities ofthe government payable on demand should be at once
discharged, if the entire amount advanced from the Treasury and placed
to the credit of disbursing officers of the government should be drawn
out, if the funds deposited for the redemption of national bank notes
should be immediately called for, and if that portion of the public funds
held for the Post-Office Department should be set aside, there Avould
still remain $135,151,688.99 in cash to meet any demand for the redemption of United States notes. The reserve has apparently run down
$11,291,802.78 since October 1, 1881. This reduction is accounted for
by the fact that by direction of the Secretary payinent has been anticipated on $12,063,714.72 in called bonds, not yet matured.
The following statement shows the percentage of reserve when computed on this plan, and what the percentage would be if sufficient funds
were set aside for the payment in full pf the gold, silver, and currency

On the first assumption the reserve for the redemption of United
States notes has ranged during the last thirteen months from 34.2 to
43.8 per cent., and the monthly average since the resumption of specie
payments has been 39 per cent. On the second assumption the ratio
of the reserve to the liabilities has varied during the thirteen months
from 51.5 to 55.9 per cent., and has averaged since resumption 52.1 per
cent. Were the 40 per cent, reserve, which it is deemed necessary to
maintain, computed on the latter basis, the amonnt now held would be
$59,961,093.50 in excess of the required amount.

CERTIFICATES.
The amount of silver certificates outstanding increased during the
fiscal year from $51,166,530 to $66,096,710. This increase was entirely
in certiticates of the denominations of ten and twenty dollars. The
araount nominally outstanding at this date is $73,607,710, of which
$7,987,260 is held by the Treasury. The departmental circular of September 18, 1880, authorizing exchange payable in these certificates at
the sub-treasuries in the West and South to be furnished for deposits of
gold coin with the assistant treasurer in New York, under which large
amounts of silver certificates were put in circulation, was modified In
ISTovember, 1881, by reducing the amount which might be deposited on
this account to $25,000 a day, and was finally rescinded October 15,1882,

Under the appropriation of $25,000 made by the act of August 7,
1882, for the recoinage of uncurrent silver coins in the Treasury,

The number of the counterfeit United States notes was 286, and of
the counterfeit national-bank notes 435.
During the year one of the national banks, a portion of whose notes
Avas stolen when signed by but one of its officers, and put in circulation
with the fictitious signature of the other, went into voluntary liquidation and deposited in the Treasurj^ lawful money for the redemption of
all of its circulation, including the stolen notes. By consent of the officers ofthe bank, and with the approval of the Secretary of the Treasury,
the stolen notes when presented at this office have been redeemed from
the bank's deposit of lawful money.
There was deducted during the year, on account of mutilations, from
the face value of United States notes redeemed $ 12,086 5 from fractionaF
ciirrency, .$199.68; and from notes of failed, liquidating, and reducing
national banks, $86.50; making the total deductions on this account
$319,149.16 on notes of the face value of $2,406,233,928.57 redeemed.
In accordance with the recommendation made in the Treasurer's last,
a inual report, the rule subjecting mutilated United States currencj^ to
a discount proportioned to the part lacking was modified, in March, 1882,

SO that fragments eqnal to three-fiftiis of whole notes are redeemed in
full, and notes of which from one-half to three-fifths remains at one-half
their face value. This rule has been found to be sufficient for the protection ofthe treasury from fraud, and its application lias saved much
labor and annoyance to this office, while it has relieved the holders of
mutilated notes from the hardship to which they were formerly subjected. Mutilated United States notes and national-bank notes are
now redeemed under substantially the same regulations.
SALES OF E X C H A N a E .
During the year ending Septeinber 30, 1882, exchange between the
principal cities was furnished by the Treasury Department to the amount

THE REDEMPTION OF NATIONAL-BANK NOTES.
The national-bank notes received for redemption during the fiscal
year amoanted to $76,089,327, an increase over the preceding year of
$16,439,068, or more than 27^ per cent. Notwithstanding this increase
the redemptions were less than one-third as great as in 1877, when
they reached $236,210,375. $28,012,000 was received from the city of
New York, $7,370,000 from Boston, and $5,939,000 from Philadelphiao
The largest amount received in any year from New York was $80,925,000
in 1875, and from Boston $80,527,000 in 1878, the amount in each case
being greater than the entire redemptions daring the fiscal year 1882c
The amount assorted during the year was $74,593,730, of wiiich
$3,801,500 was fit for circulation and returned to^the banks that issued
it, $53,838,500 was unfit for circulation, and $16,953,730 was ofthe issue
of banks which have failed, gone into liquidation, or made deposits of
law^fal money for tiie retirement of part of their circulation. The
amount of notes fit for circulation redeeraed was less than in any precediug year, constituting but 5 per cento of the total redemptions, while
the amount of notes unfit for circulation was greater than in any ofthe
preceding four years. The amoant of notes fit for circulation redeemed
has steadily d<f>cliDed since 1878. In that vear they amounted to
$152,437,300, and constituted more than 70 per cent, of the total redemptions. The proportion of notes of reducing banks included in the
TREASURER OF THE UNITED STATES.
377
amount redeemed was greater than in any preceding year, being
$14,150,026, or nearly 19 per cent, of the total amount assorted.
The expenses incurred in the redemption of national-bank notes
during the year were $129,529.38 as against $126,212.12 during the
preceding year. The increase is more than covered by the increase in
the charges for transportation, the expenses of redeeming aud assorting
the notes having been reduced from $92,368.26 in 1881 to $90,326.07 in
1882—a smaller expenditure than in any preceding year. Heretofore,
in accordance with a construction ofthe law adopted at the outset, the
charges for transportation have been assessed upon the several national
banks in xiroportion to the amount, and the expenses of assorting in
liroportion to the number, of their notes redeemed. For the last fiscal
year, for the first time, all of the expenses of redemption have been
assessed in proportion to the amount ofthe notes ofeach bank redeemed.
This method seems to conform more closely than the former one to the
requirement of the law that ''tlie amount assessed upon each association
shall be in proportion to the circulation redeemed," while it saves the
labor aud expense of computing the nuniber of notes redeemed for each
bank.
At the Treasurer's suggestion there was inserted in tbe act of July 12,
1882, extending the corporate existence of national banks, a provision
that >'all national banks w.hich have heretofore made or shall hereafter
make deposits of lawful nioney for the reduction of their circulation
shall be assessed * * * for the cost of transporting and redeeming
their notes redeemed from such deposits subsequently to June 30,1881."
Accordingly, all notesof reducing banks redeemed during the last
fiscal 3^ear have been subjected to assessment, making the tota?amount
assessed $71,794,526, and the average rate $1.80-iVffo ^ov each $1,000 redeemed and assorted. Had the reducing banks been relieved from assessment as heretofore, the assessment upon the other banks would have
• been at the rate of $2.25 for each $1,000, or one-fourth greater.
The same section providesthat thenatlonal banks w^hich shall thereafter make deposits of lawful money for the retirement in full of their
circulation shall, at the time of their deposir-, be assessed for the cost of
transporting and redeeming their notes then outstanding a sum equal
to the average cost of the redemption of national-bank notes duringthe
preceding year. The assessments made under this section on national
banks going into voluntary liquidation are credited to a consolidated
account to which are to be annually charged the actual expenses of
transporting and redeeming the notes of such banks.
DEPOSITS FOR R E T I R E M E N T OF BANE! CIRCULATION.
The ninth section of the act of July 12,1882, extending the charters of
national banks, limits to $3,000,000 a month the deposits of lawful money
which may be made for the withdrawal of bank circulation under section
4 of the act of June 20,1874, exclusive of the amount which may be withdrawn in consequence of the calling by the Secretary of the Treasury of bonds for redeniption. The amount deposited on this account
from the date of the passage of the act to October 31, was $4,581,825, of
which $1,882,340 consisted of lawful money deposited with the Treasurer
and assistaut treasurers ofthe United States, and $2,699,485 of the xiroceeds of called bonds. The deposits of lawful money daring the same
period for the retirement of the circulation of national banks in voluntary liquidation were $1,860,1350

RESTORATION OF SALARIES.
In conclusion, the Treasurer earnestly renews the recommendation
made in his last annual report for the restoration to their former amounts
of the sailaries of the officers of his office wdiich were reduced by the
appropriation act of 1§76. The amount required to make the restoration is only $3,600 per annum—the salary of three clerks of the lowest
grade—while the number of officers who would be benefited by it is
twenty. Even with the restored salaries, the pay of these officers will
be much less than is paid for like services and.responsibilities in private
establishments, and less than the salaries of officers of no higher rank
in some other branches of the public service. The action recommended
would simply res'tore the salaries to the amounts at which they are fixed
by law (18~ Statutes, 397, 399).
No loss ofthe public money has occurred in this office duringthe last
year.
Very respectfully, your obedient servant,
J A S . GILFILLAN,
