Contention Over Bond Debt Growth and Silver Resumption
A Washington telegraph to the Cincinnati Enquirer details massive potential debt increases tied to retiring greenbacks and resuming specie payments. It cites more than 360 million dollars in implied new debt, with ten million five percent bonds sold for silver bullion and calls for up to 18 million dollars annual interest on funded bonds. The Bristow act claims power to issue bonds to carry the act into effect, while legal opinions differ on its legality. Congress faces questions on the act’s true meaning in the next session.
