Towards bimetallism bank men draw vast gold reserve
Bankers move toward bimetallic policy as large quantities of the gold reserve are drawn from vaults. The shift suggests a broader financial realignment influencing currency stability, monetary policy debates, and market expectations amid rising debates on metal standards.
Gold reserve crisis looms as treasury depletes funds
A Washington dispatch for the Salt Lake Tribune argues the New York bankers cannot be trusted to replenish the gold reserve. It states the treasury’s six months show revenues about 30 million dollars short of expenditures, with bond issues increasing national debt by 100 million and a $70 million gap blamed on gold exports and current expenses. The piece contends a deliberate plan to draw gold from the treasury risks public credit and hints at a drift toward a bi metallic standard as silver advocates press for action after Congress reconvenes.
