Spanish war bonds now outstanding may be one of tha features of Secre- tary MacVeagh's financial plan after the treasury has been replenished with & preliminary issue of $25,000,000 to $30,000,000 of Panema bonds. The Spanish war bonds were issued in 1895, Wwere payable any time after 1908, and do_not mature until 1918. About $20,- 000,000 of them are owned by the na- tional banks and heid by the treasury 8 security for national bank notes and publip deposits. As soom 8s the details of Secretary MacVeagh's plan are perfected, the first {sste of the Panama bonds will be made usider the new law, which ex- empts them from use as security for national bank circulation. The issue will mark a new epoch in tha finances of this government. All bonds issued heretofore have carried the circula- tion privilege, and, treasury officials think, have carried an ertificlal value as a result. Ths new issue being avail- able for investment only, will establish a new price for this government's se- curities. Under the law they canmot bo i at less than par, and it 1s Aot will be sold to the highest bidders. After a value has been established in that way, it is not improbable that future issues, such as for the retir ment of the Spanish war bonds and other purposes, may be offered for pop-~ ular subscription. In making the iseues, Secretary Mac- Veagh intends to plan them to meet the conditions of the money market. and #t is certain that the new loan will be floatsd in parts as the needs of the treasury may require. It seems certain that the first fssue will be made before early summer. —_— ITIGMATIZES BALDWIN WILL AS A “BUNGLE.” Counsel for Miss Turnbull Also Refors to It a “Legal Scarecrow.” Los Angeles, March 2.—That the will of the late “Lucky” ~Baldwin was bungled and was a “legal scarecrow” which could not cut off anyone with a legitimate claim, was asserted today by A.
