Mr Paddock was feeding a corn cutting machine, when one of the fingers was cut off by the knives. Hastily bandaging his hand, he drove to the railway station and barely caught the train to St. Louis.

You have shown that the money pinch was already relaxing, as indicated by the decline in the premiums on currency, both here and in Chicago. You have pointed out how the premiums on currency relaxed and disappeared without government interference in 1893. You have argued truly that the treasury department, by “butt- ing in” at this juncture, deprives the public of those lessons in prud- ence and self-dependence which are greatly needed as helps to ward off like calamities hereafter.

Mr. Cortelyou with much simplicity, begins by saying that he hasalready placed more than $200,000,000 fn the banks.

It may be assumed that the profit derivable from these government depositsisat the rate of $50,000,000 per annum in the aggregate. Now, Mr. Cortelyou comes forward in a breathless way and says to the peo- ple, and President Roosevelt echoes him (or vice-versa): “I have ex- hausted my means for loaning money to the banks free of interest. I can not place another cent there except by borrowing. Congress has given me only two resources {n the way of loans, both designed for quite differ- ent purposes—one for digging the Panama canal, the other for the war with Spain, 1 will try both, to the extent of $150,000,000, it necessary.
