Silver Profit Fund Circulation State of Coinage Profit
The United States Treasury reports a profit of 2,095,000 dollars from silver coinage under the silver act, with about 35,000,000 dollars disbursed for bullion purchases and 2,000,000 ounces coined monthly. Debate centers on circulating the profit as Treasury notes or silver certificates, with officials favoring certificates on coined dollars under the Bland act and the new silver act. The plan envisions annual profits near 5,000,000 dollars while maintaining existing silver certificates in circulation.

Secretary Refuses Gold Bar Exchange With $1 Million Offer
The acting Secretary of the Treasury refused to authorize exchanging gold bars for United States gold coin at the New York Sub-Treasury, blocking a $1,000,000 offer. The move signals a shift to curb gold withdrawals, leveraging new law allowing a charge to cover bar production costs and the Secretary’s approval for exchanges. The decision may still leave exports possible via private bar production or coin exports, but it creates a barrier to easy exchange and could affect flows.

Cancelling Stamps by Machinery in Post Office Plan
Postmaster General Wanamaker will decide on distribution of ceiling stamp machines funded by a $40,000 appropriation. Twenty machines already operate in Boston under contract at $250 yearly each, with each machine and one clerk handling work of about four clerks. Competition among large city post offices and contractors will shape the test rollout, across about 120 first class offices, with space and staffing considerations guiding placements.

Atkinson Misrepresented on Reciprocity with Brazil
The statement cites Edward Atkinson denying quotes attributed to him on Brazil reciprocity. He says he said nothing to the Washington Post and that the question’s outcomes depend on marginal trade shifts. He argues real gains require free wool listing and lower duties or broader treaties with South America, Canada, and others to enable cheaper imports and longer credit in trade.
