z THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. ‘TUESDAT.......... August 8, 1893. Editor. CROSBY 8. NOYES... ee ‘THE EVENING STAR basa regular and permanent circulation in Washington three timeslarger than that ofany ether paper in city. As a local NEWS paper and Ad- vertisieg Mediam It has ne competitor. ————————— Promptness and prudence in times of great emergency are desirable qualities to possess. The senseless run which was com- menced on the Washington Loan and Trust Company yesterday was about as unwise an incident as has characterized the pres- ent panic. This institution has the large paid up capital of $1,000,000, and loans its money only upon the best security. It had ® large amount of cash on hand, and a lar- ger amount of notes payable on demand, ‘and notes maturing at an early date. In other words it was, and is, in first-class condition, absolutely strong and solvent. It had 4 per cent of tts demand deposits in ‘The place of business of the company was suddenly filled with people laboring under excitement and delusion; they called for their money without knowing what they wanted it for. The situation was prompt- ly met and thetr fears allayed by the vig- crous action of the officers of the company. With one or two exceptions none | ef them seemed to be dissatisfied, yet in| some cities such an event as this has) ‘wrecked the business interests and worked utter demoralization. ‘The Trust Company acted wisely in de- banks in New York, jppose, however, ntinued to make crowd—the excitement have Increased rapidly, and a gen- panic would have prevailed throughout The company would have been ge apen would have thrown their securities upon the market. It would have been compelled to buy in nearly all of them, but at prices which would have been ruinous to the bor- rowers, The Trust Company deserves the thanks of every intelligent citizen in the community for the bold stand it has taken— which it could well afford to do on account of its large capital and assets. No think- ing depositor will, for a moment, contest f 83 ji H i i i H i ul : H g fe rt ge if | ; i t i Hy i i F a gE 4 iH Hi . & ‘the first importance at this time banks of the city should stand shoulder te shoulder for their com- protection and for the protection of general interests of the In F i and runs. We understand the banks of this city, with two exceptions, as well as the trust compantes, formed a league last night for mutual protection, and that in cases of emergency where one institution needs assistance it will be promptly ren- dered by all the others. It is also understood that all that pre- vents the banks from issuing clearing higuse certificates ts the fact that two in- s®tutions in the District decline to unite fm the movement on the ground that they Congress has received its instructions, and is from this time forth without excuse for inaction. The message which President 4 today sent to the Capitol has the merit of brevity, but that is the least of {ts good qualities—a couclusion which will surely be arrived at by a great majority of the American people. From the begin- ning to the end of a carefully constructed @ocument, the President has handled a complex subject with the breadth that might have been expected in one who is far from being a partisan in the strict sense. Very truly does he say that “our unfortunate financial plight ts not the re- ‘ult of untoward events nor of conditions related to our natural resources.” For some years past crops have been abundant, and the ripening harvest promises rich re- turn for the invested capital of means and muscle, and in these conditions the Prest- @ent sees nothing that could cause such financial distrust as now disturbs and alarms the entire nation. His picture of the distress ts vivid, but by no means over- @rawn, and he will be strongly supported in his expressed conviction: “I believe these things are principally chargeable to Con- gressional legislation, touching the pur- chase and coinage of silver by the general government.” That legislation he justly designates as of the compromise variety, for it was brought about by a trade, and was practically accepted by the believers alike {n gold and in stlver. It gave promise of resulting in a better price for stiver, but the promise never amounted to anything. In a gratifyingly dispassionate way Prost ent Cleveland tells the story of legislative blundering and in language not in the least confusing makes plain to every reader the impossibility of at once obeying the law and maintaining the parity between sflver and gold. The wastefuiness of the policy that has been compelled by the law of July 14, 190, should be generally apparent now if it Rever was before, the figures used being convincing beyond question. Up to July 15 last silver bullion had been purchased to the &mount of more than one hundred and forty- seven millions. Of this bullion only an in- finitesstmal fraction was used for coinage Purposes, and the vast remainder, useless in the treasury vaults, was paid for almost exclusively with gold. It is therefore far from surprising that foreign nations should have followed closely in the footsteps of the silver men whe soli their ore for the gold they affect to despise and added to their Sreat stores of the yellow metal much that Should never have crossed the Atlantic. An oft proposed remedy, but an unreasonably THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, expenstve one and never more than rary at best, is suggested by the Freie, when he says that “unless ernment bonds are to be constantly issued and sold to replenish our exhausted gold, only to be again exhausted, it is apparent that the op- above the plane of party politics President Cleveland merely repeats a truism current for some time among financiers and there Will be none to dispute with him the oc- eupation of the premises that Congress has Rew to deal with a problem that afflicts every household in the land. Active follow- ers of tariff reform doctrines will probably be disappointed at the exclusion cf tariff iscussion from the message ana will doubt- less argue that the McKinley bill has done more damage than the silver legislation of 1890. Perhaps the President inclines toward their belief; {t would seem so to those who read his words carefully. He commences by charging the evil of today to that act of July 14, 1890, but im writing of prevalent distrust touches doubtfully as to the cause thereof, and when nearing conclusion re- fers to the silver bill as being merely “one of the plain and principal causes.” He does mention tariff reform in his reference to @ September session which he had planned, but relegates it to a secondary Position; @ proceeding that will not be re- garded with absolute satisfaction by those democrats who believe that our hard times are due largely to tariff uncertainty. Taken as @ whole the message is 4 sound, fair Statement of actual conditions which Con- gress should speedily amend. Few Con- Sresses have done as they were bidden and most of them are beyond rational control, but if this one will take the advice proffered by the President it will be a érasraut mem- ory for many years. One of the eye-dampening features of this Congress is the unhesitating manner in which Mr. Crisp was re-elected after all the trouble Jerry Simpson had in finding a 00d man to fill his place. +e e When Bourke Cokran goes over from Tammany to the Cleveland forces there is Ro good reason why the comparatively slight residue should not follow. ——_~++—____ The republican editors will now proceed to note that the message is weak and un- satisfactory, and the democratic editors that it is able and all that could be ——__+ «+ ____ ‘The temptation for Senators and mem- bers to make egregious spectacles of them- selves now presents itself with more than ordinary luxuriance.

It Fooled Him. “What is the matter?” said the gnat to the mosquito. “I'm disappointed.” “How?" “I've worked for ten minutes on what I thought was a small bald spot.” “Well?” “The man had s wig on.” The Congressman’s Self-Dental. “Take hence this gratulating note, And eke my big bouquet; ‘These things may not instruct my vote— ‘This is my busy day.” Rest at Last. “I wish,” said a tired-looking man at the White House, “to communicate with the President.” “What about?” “I want to thank him personally for call- ing this extra session. I owe him more than I can express in words, for doing something to give the country a steady supply of genuine news.” “Why, who are you?” “I,” said the stranger with a sigh, “I am the man who writes the snake stories for papers to print when facts get scarce.” Undiscovered. “Did you ever have your picture in a newspaper?” “Yes; once. But as the compositor mis- spelled my name under it, no one has ever yet learned of the fact.” “And yet,” said the ice-desler, as he shoved up the price another notch, “people think there is no such’ thing as @ cold snap im summer!” Silver Bil. “Twas a good while ago That we first saw the scamp— At least three years or so Since he came into camp, ‘The kind of a man It’s a pleasure to As gentle an’ kind an’ as big as kin An’ we felt mighty proud, Fur the crowd All allowed With a gineral treat an’ a rousin’ big cheer That we'd surely be lucky sence he'd an- chored here.
