7 Money in Circulation. Baltimore Sun: At the present time, deducting the money ljeld by the treasury and the banks, the amount of cirr dilation really in the hands of the people can hardlv fall much short of or about $16.25 to every man, woman and child in the country. This amount amply suffices for the business needs of the United States, supplemented as it is by tlie use of checks and drafts. So extensive is the use of checks and drafts at the present time, alongside of coin and other recognized forms of money, that it may be questioned whether the quantity of cash in a community is 'as much how as formerly a measure of its prosperity. On the 17th of September, 1881, the total receipts of the national banks in New Yorky iu other reserve cities, and of the banks elsewhere in the United States, aggregated but of this amount only 1.38 per cent was ingo1d, 0.17 per cent in silver, and 4.36 percent in paper currency, while 94 09 per cent was- in checks drafts etc.

In New Yorfc Hty less than 1 per cent of the payments were made in gold or in currency, whUe 98.6 per cent was in checks and drafts. In the banks elsewhere, and not in the reserve citiesf 3.3i per eerifc 'of all wiyments were made in gold, 0.6H in silver 1,427 per cent in currency and 81 74 per cent in checks and drafts.
