MILWAUEEE, Nov. 15.—The ncar approach to resumptfon adds interest to facts about bank- fng. Ina receat interview of TuoE TRIBUNE correspondent with Milwaukee bankers, a vital difference of opinion among the financicrs was .plainly discermble. Alexander Mitchell. from the cautfous expression of his views, was ap- parently opposed to a bank: policy which would antagonize the political power of the Govern- ment. Mr. Mitchell, it is well known, has opinions on the financial question which are yadfeal. e is hard-money, without compro- mise; but he thinks that a war. between the financial nstitutions of the country and Con- gress woulddestroy resumption,would encourage and] stimulate zshallow political §demagogy i Congress and amopg the parties, and would damage business interests. On the other hand, the National-Baok men appear to think that n Lold pollcy on the part of the bauks nostile to the silver policy of Congress affords the only safe ground for resumption,—** satistactory re- sumption,” as it is termed by Mr. Camp, Cash- ferof the First Natiopal Bank, of Milwaukee, which is probably the most dircct and ablest representative of the National-banking interest In this State. The National Baunks are evidently hostile to sitver. Col. Brodhead, Presidentof the First National Bauk, intimated that if the Gov- ernmeunt would not lock up its own silver as fast as coined, the banks might undertake to buy it in and jock it up ia their vaults, 5o as to kecp it out of circulation. Whether this was bravado, or whether it is smoug the actual plans of the national bankers, tune 1 detenini: The sugzestion, at least, was full of signilicance. That a thorough understanding exists among the Natfonal Banks on the subject, or that sucl an ucderstanding will be reached, does uot aanit of a question. THE STATE BANKS. The peculiar caution with which Mr. Mitchell sooke on this subject, and his evident anxiety taut there should be no antegonism between the banks aad the Government, as contrasted with the appareat disposition of the Natfonal- Bank representatives to chalienge the silver policy of the Government, suzgested the pussi- bility thet there might be a difference of views on the subject between tbe State-Bank organi- zations and the National Banks. Alexander Mitchell established the Wisconsin Ma- vine “and Fire-Tnsurdnce Company, with bauking " powers and - privilezes, in 1853. When the State vanking systemn was adopted. in 1851, he reorainized his fnsurance Company as the Wisconsin Marine & Fire- Insurance Compaoy’s Bank. The bank uever ‘sccepted the National Banking system, but re- mains to-day simply s State bank. Its circula- tion, of course, disappeared at the time when the State banks were taxe:d out of existence by Congress for the benefit of the Nationsl Banks. In view of the possibitity that there mizht bea différence of policy between the State Bauls and the National Bauks, a statement of what, State Banks we have in Wisconsin might attract attention. There are twenty-cizght such ba: ]u[_ which five are located in Miiwaukee, £s fo] ovs: Wisconsin Marine & Fire Insurance Com- pauy’s Bonk. Of this bank Alexander Mitchell is President, David Furguson Cazhier, and John Johnston Assistant Castier. This b in its reeent report to the authorities shows $1,667,76R.70 of losns and Giscounts, - mearly a million dollars of United States bonds ‘und_other. per sccurities on hand, and total resources of $4,149,872,41. The deposits of this bank were, at the date of the report, $2,4% 066.29. . The reports of the National Ban. the city are not at hand, but 2 rouzh guess may be made to the effect that the strength of this bank is equal to at least two, if not all three, of the National Banks in the city. * : Other State Banks in the city are the Second Ward Savinzs Bank. with resources of $1,249, 22234, of which Valentine Blatz is President, and Col. W. H. Jacobs Cashier; the Bzuk of Commerce, with resources of corsiderably above half a million dollars, of which ex-Mayor O'Neil is President, end A. B. Guilfuss is Cashier; the German Exchauvere Bank, with re- sources of half a million; the Manufacturers’ Bauk and the South Sige Savinegs Bank, each ‘with resources_of u quarter of a million of dollars or s0. It is, or would be, interesting to Lnow, if we vould find out, whether the State Banks have an interest differcot from that of the Nationu! Banks, and whether our old, exploded, demounced, and vilified State banking ~ system is, after sll, to be called upoa to rally for the supportof the re- sumption exveriment, while the National Banks(if it should prove to be so) are attempt- jue to prevent resumption unlessit shall be secured by the agoption of their programme, in- cluding the exclusion of silver coins. ¢ The following are the totals of State Bank items in the Stat Resources—Loaus and dis- rounts, $5.005.669.89; United States bonds and other bends on hand, §1,441.237.80; specie, $78,- 450.52; Dbills of solvent banks oo hand, $50 $520,~ 5i5.79; due from banks, $2,254,509.66. Other ftems make up the totals of the re- sources of the State Banks to over ten sod onequerter millions of dollars. Their liabilities, of which, of _course. the ma item is the amount due depositors on demand, is something less than seven million: Iu addition, tiere are half a_dozen private bapking jnstitutions in Milwaukee, aud their sympathies, in case of a conflict, will be likely to %0 with the State-Bank organizations. The First National Bank of Sparta, in this State, recently surrendered its organization and reorganized ‘under the State Banking laws. ‘They say they save money in taxes by this course of action. - - .

Speaking of politics, this town has not in Years been 8o full of a topic of conversation as It was after Toz TmimUse’s correspondence last Surday as 10 the proposition to overturn the City Government, and to make a City Ad- ininistration by Commissions appointed at Madison. ‘The Sentine: has wiven repeated edi- Torisls to the subject, and some whose names :‘rc“rfi i}xscd cast ridicule on the whole ides. Wait ¢hile, * THE WATER WE DRINK. Mr. Hilbert. the City Engincer, bas made a report to the Common Council on the subject of enlarging the capacity of the Water-Works, The cost of new eugines 2nd puwnps, vew build- inzs, rrading and Jockiny, ete., will, it is csti- mated, cost §250,000; or the present capacity of the works can be increased 50 per cent for a cost ef §130,000; The Engineer is confident that a new reservoir will be pecessary for the city at no distant day, aud suegests that one which will hold 100,000,000 gaillons of water onght to be built on the elevation fu the north- west part of the city, which is %(iualdcr.\l;g higher than the present reservoir. The capacity o}qlhe present, E’cscrvo!r is pnly 21,000,000 gal- lons. But the vital point in thie repors is the tollowing: This city should not only have a plentiful supply of water, but it should ulso be pure 2nd whole- sume. We cafinot afford tne rigk of its being con- taminated becaunsc of the proximity of our present works to the outlets of our rivers. This i3 a most important item in consideriny the problem of tne future eupply of water for this city, and to enable ns to arrive at correct conclugions we should have dnrinz onc year or more previous to making any niore beyond the present propused addition to oar humping capacity. 8 monthly analysis and other avestigations made of swaler taken from our own supply from zamples taken two miles northwest of the present crib, and algo of the water taken from the lake at Whitefish Ba: We should have esti- mates of the cost of extending the present inletand cost of laying en additional wain further into the lake; nleo the costof u conduit aluns the lakeshore from Whitefish Bay, vringing the water by gravita- tion or otherwise into the pump wells at our pres- ent worke. . 1he fact is that the condition of the water that wedrink is_becoming absolutely fearful. The discharge of sewer-filth-into the river, and from the river into the lake, is increasing dail; and 2 southerly wind for two days is now coough to blow the ouiflow to the very neigh- borhood of the supply-pipe throush which the water is drawn for theuse of the city. Prof. Haskins mentions having seen the drift of dis colored filthy water, scveral days.ago, as far north as the Lake Shore Railrosd station, and moving toward the supply-pipe.

A a couple of days ago the dark outflow frotn the 1¢ver, as scen fromn the blufls, appronched clear to the Water-Works pier. There are two plans to helpus. One is to extend the Water-Works pier and pine¢ further out into the lake; but if that should” be done a highthouse would have to be built and kept at its outer end. The other.plan is to remove the pumping works north of North Point, and to bring the water from Whitefish Bay, as is sugeested by M ililberc. The latter place, though exiensive, would place a barrier—the bold-juttivz promoctory known as North Poist—between the wouth of the river and the source of water supply, which would, for many vears at least, prevent the mix- ture of the infernal river nastiness with the agueons figid used Ly wany of our citizens for tt:c purpose of diluting oar stronger beverages. TRADE NOTES. Durinz the past tea days much speculative interest has centered upoan the hog product. Gommercial reports show that the dmly receipts and shipments - at the Mil- wankee yards - are unusually large. The especial ioterest in the business i3 due to the fact that o decided advance in prices is anticipated for the winter. Plankinton & Ar- mour are siready packing between 2,660 and 3,000 porkers daily, runnin their establishment almost to its entire capacity. The other pack- ers are busy to.an extent making at least 12.600 hogs daily kilied and packed. The market is wunaturally Tow. Why larmers should disposc of their stock so frecly is not explained. ‘Tae product of Wisconsin and adioining States is not noted as being much more extensive than during preceding years. Hence it is believed that the mariet will scon Ue better. There is animation at_the vardsand a1l vacking estab- lishments, and shrewd specutators throughout the city and couptry are turning their attention in that direction. ‘The decrease in the Et. Paul Railrond carnines for the frst week in November was - $61,217 as compared with the corresponding week of last ew the suceess and prosperity of the Chicago Lxposition, Milwaulkee manufac turers and merchunts are contemplating a simi- lar enterprise. The plan as at present proposed isto occupv the four-story Burnbam Block, ucar the St. Paul Depot, on’ the South Side, for the purpose. This immense block was bui during- the prosperons days before the panic for occupancey by Jobn Nazro, and since: his fmlure it . has remsined vacant. The proposed plan includes the erec- tion of a glass and iron building to the south of the Burnham Block, which, with the various floors in that block, will furaish suflicient room for the. display and for the multitudes who would be attracted to Milwaulkec on that ac- count. The locstion is_cornerwise across the street from the St. Paul Dejot, but a few blocks from the Elizatcth Strees Station of the N wesiern Road. The business interests of Mil- waukee are aspiring with the prosect of renew- ed prosperity which is expected to come with resumption, and tkey propose to rival Chicago, Cincinnati. St. Louis, and other cities in the attractions presented to the people of the Northwest. ) The assessed valuation of Milwaukee County is, as recently cqualized; $55,000,000.

Caica6o, Nov. 16.—The seventh section of Art. X. of the Constitation provides that the county affairs of Cook County shall be man- aged by a Board of Commissicners of filteen persouss, ten ot whom shall be clected from the City of Chicago and five from towns outside of said eity, in such manner as may be provided by law. The General Assembly pas provided for the election of these Commissioners by dividing the county mto six districts, and this year five Commissioners were electea. Their terms of office sre for three years, and begin on the first Mounday of December after ‘their clection, and they hold until their suc- cessors are elected and qualified. They have the entire control of the taxes and expenditure of moneys, and of the affairs of Cook County; are invested with as much power as thag of tlie old Roman practors. Sce. 62 of Chap. 34of the Kevised Statutes, op. 303-0. provides for stated meetings of the Board of Commissioners, and is as follows: ¢ They shall have regular mectings on the first Mondays of December, March, June, and Sep- tember of each year.” They siall be known as “The Board of Commissioners of Cook Couuty,” and as suck Board ot Commissioners shall have the management of .the county affuirs of said county, and shall exercise the same powers, perform ithe same duties, be subject to tue same rules, regulatious, amd peoalties as prescribed by law for the Board of Supervisors. P ‘The law governing the meeting of the Board of County Commissioners does not provide for constant meetings, and the custom which has grown up during the last few years oi being “always in session ” is au utter perversion ot the law and a great abuse of their privileges. 'Their compensation, as fixed by law, is $2.50 per day for the time sctually and necessarily engrazed. in the discharge.of his duties as a wember of suca Boarg, to be paid on the order of the Board out of the County Treasury, and mileare, five cents each way, for necessary travel, and no other allowance or emoluments, direetly or - indircetly, for .any purposes whatever. (See Revised Statutes, p. 502, Hurd’s Revision.) “This statute is entirely disrezarded he Com- missioners, we understand, notwithstanding Sees. 213 “and 214 of the Crimival Code, which are as follows: Sec, 213, If any oflicer authorized by law to chearpe or receive fees, ealary, or pav, shall charge, claim, acmund, or take any greater fue, salary, or pay ihan such as is by law allowed 1o him for the service performed, or shall charge. claim, demand, or take auy fee, eulary, or pay, or stall i charge any fec, salacy, or pay, when no fee, szlary, or pay is atlowed him by law, or when the rervices for which such fee, salary, or pay I» coarzed have nut been performed by him, or by some other per- son for him, he shall, on conviction under this sec- tion, for the first oficnse be fined in any sum not 12es then $25 nor more than $200, and, upon con- viction for & second or any subscquent offense under this ection. he shall forfeit nis oflice, and shall be confinen in the County Jail not less than thirty duys nor more than one year.

Under and by virtue of this law and these “provisions of the Criminal Code, every Com- missioner who hias during this last year received more than $2.50 a day is liable now to indict- ment, ard to all the penalties provided for in the abore law. We trust that the new Board will set the ex- ample, first, of observing the law themeelves, and then they can with a better grace compel the abservance of the law by othiers. ‘The idea that there is any neeessity whatever that the Board of County Commissioners should hold constaut sessions {s ridiculous and absurd, and if the present Board has any self-respect whatever they will do away with the practice of perpetual and cternal sessions altogether. We trust that the new Board, 45 soon as they have been installed into _oflice, will overbaul every deparument of the County Government, and will cause to be Isid before them the paye rolls of every department, and prim the same, with the salary which has been puid to cach and every employe, and the - expenses of every “institution ” under the control of the Commissioners. Heretofore the Cook Couuty Government bas been engineered, direeted, and controlled by the clerks aud deputies employed inthe various public ofiices of the county. liis but a few months since that tve County Com- missioners, in one of their ‘*‘spasms,” under- took to reduce the salarics of somc of thedepu- ty-clerks of the courts, when the clerks, in order to prevent it, ot _up an agrcad case, Look the County-Attorney—Judge Wallace—into court, and zot Judge Moore to decide that all of tie schr Shawnee. deputy-clerks, cmoloyes, and Court-fiouse janitors were officers © within the mean- ing _of the Constitution, and _ that the Board could not reduce their salaries durin: their term of oflice. A more ridiculous and ab- surd decision was never rendered by any Court thsn this, vet Judge W: ' Board of County Comumissioners acquiesced, the clerks and deputies, engineers and janitors. all “acquiesced.” No appeal was ever ordered to be taken, and this decision is_constantly being referred to by all the ** Ring® Commis- sioners aud weak-kneed Republicans, as if it was binding forever on the Board.

The steady upward movemen: of the prices for 00d reilroad bonds vroves that the accumulating praits of the country is going into this s of rail- road secaritics in vreference to stocks, The activity in Denver & Rio Grande iirsts is a case in point. These bonds have just been put on the Stock Exchange Ist, Botween Monday and ‘Murs- day they advanced from 80t to 85. This bona s “on & narrow-gauge road that defanlted on hoth its interest payments last year. The advance in many good railroad bouds: has been rapid. Northwest gold bonds were quoted -yestarday at 1053, Bur- lington & Cedar Rapids 5 per cents at 72, and St. Paul Sinking-Funds at 903, Ciucago investors are hunpered a mood déal by, the lack of information anout prices, 'The ticker quotes les: than half a dozen railroad Londs. If the Western Union Company would fur- nish full reports of tne finctuations of all the active Dbonds it wonld oe repaid by the increase of business. The feature cf Stock Exchange business is tae demand for railroad bonds and the rise in price. Stocks, s a rule, are. neglected by investors, who are bidding eagerly for.vood railroad mortgage se- curities.

Ife stated tha: he had bonght his shoats at $1.50 per head, and could make mwmney by the operation, owing to the present cheapness of corn. - # Some of our provision operators ate beginning to feei quite alarmed at the situation in pock prod- uets. They eay that hogs are ag chieap in Buffaio, and Jower in Cincinnati, then here,.which is the reason why hogs have recently come from a tonz distance East to be killed in Chicago. 3lean- while Cincinnmi ja offering her product at Jower prices them we, and attmact- ing custom, while we are piling up the product of neariy 260,000 hogs per weeis, sencinz it away to find 1 market elaewhere. They «ny that country points are also packing more frecly than ever before. and offering their stuf in our market ut fower prices than car packers can afford to sell at.. They argue, therefore. that hozs should 2o still lower, and must touch about 2¢ per Ib on the hoof before they can be handled withont Joss. ‘There may be some force in ali this, andit may be that both hogs and provisions wiil go mach Jower than now. but one cannot forget that hogs are already very low, and that there are alwaye people whose leading policy is to cry down pricee at the opening of winter, and cry them up at tae end of - the season. The situation I3 certainly o dificalt ope to desl with. The European markets are £0 much depressed that taey do not permit shipments from this poin: within ¢ per 1b on our quotations for meats, except on some fancy cuts, and there 1€ no doubt that they will decline further if we set them the example. When, however, our long clear middles can be bought 1n Liverpool at a very smail fraction over 3 pence per 1b (298 per 112 1lbs), it does look as if things muost be near bottom. ‘The official stock taking, reported in another col- umn,shows that u very small percentage remaing of the product of the 4,500,000 bos packed here during the past twelve months. ‘The wonder is not £0 much that we heve nearly 50,000 bris old poric on hand, as that we have so little stoff left. Cer- tainly the outlook would be stronger if there were less on hand; but it is scarcely half of 1 per cent of the whole quantity of etufl made in the vast year. The leading produce markets were tame on Saturday. Hous were easier, and provisions dull in consequence, with a downward tendency in meats. Darley and oats were sirvnger, and other grain exhioited little change. Receipts of wheat continue large at this and other points, Detroit reporting 111 car-loads for Suturday, and a decline of 1c, while foreign marlkets were tame. Deaulers in stapleand funcy dry goods were doing a fair business forthe time of year. Few buyers were to be scen, but the mails brought a liberal number of orders, and the agzrezate distribution equaled the expectations of ressopable holders. Jobbers of groceries were fairly busy. Both staple and fancy articles met with a2 very good demand, and preyious prices were nniformly well sustained. Dried fruits were unchanged. Domestics were not movingzas freely as could be desired, but forforeign varieties there was a satis- | factorily active call. Canned zoods were active, and most kinds were firm, peaches and small froits cepecially so. Fish remained quict and steady. 0Oils, paints, and colors were unchaneed. Leather was firm. Coal and wond remained s previously quoted. % At the lumber yards trade was reported to be zood and prices steady. Western merchants are ordering freely, and tne trade with Illinvis and Indiana dealers is gaining in volume. The cargo supply was light Saturday, and a few sales were effected, with old prices rendily obtained. The reports from the pinerics indicate that the lumber- sea will make 2 vizorous effort to secare n crop of Toes whici will exceed that of last seasoa, unless O1d Probs should sgain forzet to give the winter its usnal accompaniments. But even awother mild weanon wopld not be likely to seriously interfere with lumbering operutions, ns the estensive 1m- provements In_the pine iezions this year have placed the lumbermen in a position where they are almost independent of weatner conditions. Wool, hides, and seeds were quict and unchanged. The gales of broom-corn were azain large at recent prices, and the receipts coutinue lveral, especially of grades below zood medium. The hay market was slow. Potatoes were steady and had a ready sule, the five cars being taken by shippers. Poultry was slow and weak, the weather being sold promptly. Lake freizhis were dall and nearly nominal at S%c for corn by suil to Bufialo. Room was taken for 60,000 bu wheas and 160,000 ou corn. Through rates Ly lake and rail were guiet at 13zccorn and 14%c wheat to New York, and 16c corn to Doston. Lake and caral rates were nowtnal at 10@10%¢ on corn azd 11c on wheat to New York. Ttait freizhts were unchanged.. Grain was quoted at 30c per 100 1bs to New York, and fourth class at 35¢c, which inciudes meats. MOVEMENT OF WHEAT.
