[To the Associated Press.) ‘WasnmiaroN, Oct. 12.—The views of Presi- dent Grant on the fiusnoial situation were ex- pressed in substance yesterday durlng conver- saution. In tho first place, he thought that the panio gonorally throughout thecountry differod enaentially, both in cause and effeot, from any elmilar evont of which he had knowledge. When such events have horotofore takon place, dis- trust hiad boon ocoasioned as to the ourrency in circulation, Every one inposscssion of ourrency would rush to the banke with it, or spend it in the moat liberal mauner; but now ourrenoy, in- stoad of being dopreciated, is actuslly becoming dally more valuable. In responso to a question, ho said he thought he saw iu passing evonts the FINST BTEPS TOWARD BESUMPTION, He snld that pauios generally oceur when the ocountry lscks prosperity, such as from the fail- uro of the crops, over-purchaxos from abroad, ote, In thls instance, the panio has ocourred in tho midnt of the groatest genoral prospeiity. ‘The aid roountly 1endored in the purchaue of aa anusunlly Jarge uumbor of bonds was nub so mugh resl as moral, **The fact ls," ths DProsi- dent eaid, “‘the monoy corporutions of the country had become atampeded, and in L startled and stampoded tho whole country, Hud not the Treasury seomed to aid thom In some way, the fright would havo bocome e gen- d tho conscquenco to the country niora As it was, hio roally bolleved tho offect GOING TO DE DENEFIOIAL in many ways to the country at largo, though tho cost to somo individuals ~desorvivg of a bottor fate mnay bo great, A re- turn to a speoio basis can nover bo offoctod ox- copt by lsudnknga of values. This shrinkage has now taken placo, tho dissstera sure to come upon individusls buvo alrendy ovortakon them, and the Prosidont sincorely hoped the advan- toge might bo rotained in order to roach a solid financial basa, Already tho Girroucy hes ap preciated to about PAR WITH SILVER, Ho wondered that silver is not now pouring out, When this should take place, his theory was that the conntry could absorb from $200,- 000,000 to 800,000,000 of it. This would prove a gront benoflt in soveral ways. It would sup- ply & market for a number of yoara for tho pro- duct of our mines, now bmmmlng o drug; it would tako the place of 40,000,000 of fractional currenoy,—about the amount of chango that experlonco hes provan to bo neonssary for tho transactioh of businoss,— snd will become tho eurrtnay which will bo Lioard- ed m sinall amounts. o bolioved that sllver onco more in_cirblation; oubacke would novor be ata discount forsilvel, All fluctun- tions from that point would be in tho apprecid- tion of the value of our paper money. -AB TO LEGISLATION, o tho Prosident eaid o hind thonght miuch upon the subjoct ; and, if he wero now engaged in writing "his aonual message to Congress, he should recommend positivo nuthority to roissue tho $44,000,000 ressrve, & froo bauling law with | tho pame protection to bill-liolders na now, a ro- peal of the olauso requiring a roservo for the protection of depositoru—a )&orceu(ngn of tho othor raserve to bo In gold, and that incrensod in regular ratos until tho whole resorve would bo in old, This could bo safely offected )y roquiring such instltutions to save the whole or » largo porcomufio of gold interost pald to banky on their bonds beld by the Treas- uror of tho Uunitod Btatas for the protection of bll-hiolders; * He also favored an absoluté pro- hibition of the paymont of intorest on dopoiita. Tho President did not contend that he would bo right 1n_those recommendations, but thoy om- bodied views which ubaided roflection” had brought to him. ‘hore was no question but that much domotalizing and_injurious specula- tion and gambhing was caused by tko accumula- tion of capital in largo contres by the TAYMENT OF INTEREST ON DEPOBITS during & portion of the year when money is not required for moving products. This leads coun- {ry bankors, merchants, and others to doposit in city banks, principslly in Now York, to make this monoy earn somothing during tha porod when they do not wish to use it Tho ‘banks paymg interest on _deposits cannot afford to hold the money idle, honce gambling in fancy stocks, millionsof which, as an invostment, would not support a family even in the miost economical mannor. Roferring to tho building of BAILROADS THAT ARE NOT WANTED, and which cannot for {nnrn 8y runuing ox- cnses, ate,, such gambling and speculation had, o trusted, rocowved a blow - from which they nover would recover. The President said that, unloss his mind should undorgo a chango, hio would recommend € g A _POST-OFFICE DANK. This would give an iuatitution in which every- body would heve groat confidonco, within. rench of every one who can approach & money-order post-ofica. Ha ehould recommend the paymont of 4 per cont to depositors, and the conversion of depoeits oither into outstanding United Blatos bonds, or Into new 43¢ per cont bonda, and tho taking up of a corresponding amount of thoso outstanding, WASHINGTON, Spectal Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune, ‘WasminaToN, Oct. 12.—The Sccrotary of the Treasary states that he was not proviously aware of the fact that, at the time of its failure, tho First National Bank of Washington had on de- posit Govornment monoy in excess of tho secur- ity of $100,000 in United States bonda and otherwiss, roquired to bo do- posited with the United Statos Treasury, 88 security for the . mafa-keeping and prompt payment of the public moneya deposited with tho banks, Judge Richardson says, how- over, that'occurrences of this kind are not un- usual, and that il occasionally happens that in tho course of businoss. an nmount of public money is somettmoes temporarilly doposited with Government depositaries in excess of actual so- curitivs given by them. ——— ' PHILADELPHIA.
