WASHINGTON, today Sept. 13.—Secretary iseued the following state- ment Secretary Shaw has made arrangements to release about $4,000,000 of the treasury holdings.

After making allow ance for changed conditions since the 1 report he expects this will release at le $4,000,000. He has sent notice to all such that it they will send these bonds to the treas- urer of the United States in sums of $5 000 or more they will be designated as temporary depositories and the face value of the bonds will be deposited with them to the credit of the treasurer of the United States. He has pursued this course In preference to designating de- positories in the ordinary way, which com- pels them to buy bonds In the market at a large premium, thus paying out more for the bonds than they get from the government.

He 1s well satisfied with his efforts to increase the circulation which he decided upon in the early summer when present conditlons were visible and has been preparing to meet an emergency which he doee not expect, but which he thinks it is wise to provide against. Thus far he has made requests only ot t very limited circulation, and he is not ask- ing these to increase to the maximum, nor to increase at all for the present. He does rot desire to force the banks into the mar- ket to buy bonds at a rate higher than the government is willing to pay. He does | desire to make the best possible use of the free bonds now held by the banks. Incidentally, he likes to encourage banks | to hold free bonde during the dull months, | belleving it is much better to hold bonds that will yield one-half of 1 per cent even than to make new loans at 2 per cent. There- fore, he is giving banks that hold these free bonds an opportunity to use them to most excellent advantage. This method, if element inel. of elasticity to tic currency system.

ONE WELL STILL BURNING Results of Fire in Flelds Give b Lo the Texas Little on BEAUMONT, Tex., Sept. 13.—Tonight one large oll gusher is still burning, sending a column of flame high into the air. Efforts made this afternoon to extinguish the flames were not successful, but more boilers have been sent for and the plan of smothering it with steam will again be tried. The small tank burned itself out this atternoon and the big one probably will dle out by morning. Many of the ofl companies have lost their pumping plants und have wired orders for new machinery, and this will be installed as soon as pos- sible. An examination leads to the bellet that no one of the wells has been perman- ently injured. There i a new problem to be confronted ma soon as the burniug gusher is extinguished, and that is control of the well. The gate valve hus been meited off, and while it Is probable that this can be replaced, it will be & difficult operation.
