IT IS NOT THE BANKS But the People Who Are Withdraw- ing Currenoy from Circulation. TALK WITH A TREASURY OFFICIAL The Scarcity of Small Bills Ac- counted For. PAST EXPERIENCE RECALLED. “It is not the banks but the people who are withdrawing currency from circulation and hoarding it up,and the sooner they under- stand the disastrous consequences that will certainly result from a continuance of such a course the better for themselves as well as the country in general.” 80 said » prominent treasury official tos Star reporter this morning. He said he was con- vinced that the scarcity of small currency was due mainly tp that cause. There is at least $25,000,000 more of small notes outstanding today, he said, than there was at the same time last year, and yet we hear that merchants are paying premium for such notes. 3 It Is Not the Banks, “One thing is clear,” he continued. “The fact that the lack of currency is in small notes is aconvincing proof that it is not banks, but firms and individuals who have been hoarding, and this, for the most part, we believe in small sums. ‘The scarcity of small notes after the stress and panic of the past two or three months cannot be considered surprising. The entire currency of the country tes $1,105,000,000. Of this only about $55,000,000 is in $1 and $2 bills, and of these about 5 per cent are worn out and destroved. ‘There remain about €230,000,000 in fives and 275,000,000 in tens. For ordinary exchanges the country islim- ited to the $285,000,000 in fives, twos and ones, the $56,000,000 of silver dollars. and the @64,- 000,000 of fractional silver. Out of $1,601,- 000,000 in circulation only about one-fourtl therefore, is in shape that .it can be circulat in ordinary retail transactions. The remaining three-quarters is in denominations $10 and up- ward. and half is over $20, and for all ordinary transactions s 20 bill is too large, while for most $10 is so also. Premium on Small Bills Accounted For. “Inevitably, with hoarding in progress, the great buik of it is done in the one-fourth of the currency in actual circulation, which is in small Dill, The savings banks generally hold about $35,000,000 in cash against their $1,850,000,000 of deposits. This is about 2 percent. If they have expanded their cash holdings to 10 per cent of their deposits—no amount in times like thie—this alone’ would sweep into thelr vast vaulte from one-half to one-third the small change in the country, for a savings bank needs not Jarge bills, but small. Add to this the hoarding of corporations snd individuals and the iam on smail bills is fully ac- counted for. “‘As is usually the case, the lack of small bills for the retail operations of trade and the payment of wages succeeds at some in- the severest stress in the money mar- ket, the highest rate for money and the number of failures, It was not un- til ber and January, after the spe of 1873, that the most serious difficulty in se- curing currency existed at that time. It was not until July, 1885, over a after the panic of 1834, that the New York banks ad- vanced $6,000,000 in gold to the treasury in exchange eal genegeed in — silver, partly to ‘the treasury and si leery keene Gece was in all directions a demand for currency in small denomina- tions and small change. An incipient scare, not unlike that of this summer, was then in ‘The treasury reserve had sbrupk to Bi88;000, 000, ana nothing buta surplus revenue of $85,000,000 prevented in ident Cleve- laad’s first administration the panic by which his second administration will be remembered.” No Reason for Scarcity of Silver Dollars. It was stated at the Treasury Department this afternoon that there is no reason whatever for a scarcity of standard silver dollars as they can be obtained at any subtreasury in exchange for silver certificates and treasury notes of 1890. Small notes in any amount can be ob- tained in exchange for lurger notes, A statement issued today shows that there are now outstanding in notes of small denom- inations as follows: Legal tender notes—Ones, 93,382,563; twos, $2,799,244; fives. 61,915,554, and tens, $91,887,175. Silver certificates—ones, $21,977,283; twos, 15,511,999; fives, €94,593,- 564; tens, $18,725,291. Treasury noter—ones, $14,079,264; twos, $12,722,504; fives, $37,264,- 170; tens, $44,642,570. ‘As an indication of the efforts being made by the national banks to increase their cir- culation, the controller of the treasury has issued the following tement: National bank circulation, &c.: Bonds de- ited to secure circulation since August 1, 430,000; of this amount there was deposit- ed yesterday $1,462,500; currency issued on bonds since August 1, $3,430,515; of this amount there was issued yesterday $682,155. Currency ordered inted for issue on bonds since August 1, $14,441,250; of this amount there was ordered yesterday $2,142,700. With a view of assisting the movemen the Secretary of the Treasury has order: the force of the bureau of engraving and Reipting to work from 8 a. m. until 6 p. m. is is two hours over time. With these extra hours the capacity of the bureau, in addition to keeping up its regular govern- ment work, will be about 40,000 sheet: daily, or 169,000 notes a day. The average stamped value of each sheet is $35, so that the total issue per day, beginning with to- oy. will be about 000, exclusive of re- es. CAME NEAR BEING MOBBED. Insult Offered to Cleveland by a Little Man Resented by the Audience. From the New York Herald, He was a little man with blinking eyes and a big desire to make things hum. He was so objectionable on Friday night on the Casino Roof Garden that he came very near being mobbed. When he went there he took his politics with him, and if a few cool headed men hadn’t interceded for him he would have been dropped from the parapets to the hard, hard sidewalk. De Pessell, who fashions prominent men’s heads out of putty, appeared on the stage about 10:45 o'clock. In a jiffy the audience found a very good likeness of President Cleveland lodking at them. When the ap- plause had died away the little man with the blinking eyes got on his feet. It was then seen that he carried himself very un- steadily. He had a table in the center of the place all to himself and had elevated several little glasses to his lps during the evenin; “He's no good.” cried the little man, pointing to the likeness of Cleveland. “Who cares for him? He's a fine President! In- stead of attending to the wants of his country he goes fishing.” ‘The man spoke loud enough to be heard by every one. His tongue didn’t ‘em to Beas frog a2 It should be, and he talked with as foreign accent. His. speec! at_first startled the whole audience. Suddenly from every part of the garden came a storm of hisses, “Throw him over!” screamed a woman at one of the tables. A score of men were on their feet in an instant, and as they made for the man every one seemed to be crying “Throw him over!” “Put him out!" Fright came into the blinking eyes of the little man. His tongue was stilled and bis knees bent until he was sitting away down in his chair. A desire to get under the table appeared to have taken hold of a Charles er Barton was at the man’s side very quickly, and, waving his hands toward the threateningly advancing men, said: “Don't touch him. He's got a three days’ ‘still’ where he’s at. ‘The audience turned. their attention from the man to the tage. They cheered and yelled and threw hats and canes and hand- kerchiefs into the air. It was a great hurrah for Cleveland, and the little man was completely conquered. A few movements of De Pessell’s hands changed the heavy features of the Presi- dent into @ broad smile. “That's the way Mr. Cleveland takes that man’s remarks,” said De Pessell. “Hurrah! Hurrah!” yelled the audience. During this wild enthusiasm the little man pulled himself together and by care- fully stepping along succeeded in escap- ing from the roof garden. Albert Aronson was present during this scene, “It was a great tribute to Cleve- land,” he said. “The audience wouldf't see ‘the President insulted. I know that @ great many republicans who were pres- mt cheered as heartily as any one else. I ink the man was an anarchist. No one knew him.” on. He doesn’t know THE WORLD OF SOCIETY.

Hughes, who is now being tried at Topeka by court martial for refusing to obey Gov. Lewelling’s order to drive re- publican members of the house from rep- resentative hall, is receiving scores of let- ters and telegrams from members of the National Guard, army officers and promi- nent democrats and republicans in all parts of the country. Nearly all of them urge him to appeal to President Cleveland if he is convicted. He received a letter from George T. Steenberg, late colonel commanding the twenty-fourth regiment of the National Guard of New York, in which the writer declares that President Cleveland, as com- mander-in-chief, has jurisdiction in the case. He offers to pay half of the expenses if Col. Hughes should make an appeal and lose. It is declared by Col. Hughes’ friends that Gov. Lewelling detailed the present court of five with a view to a conviction without regard to the evidence or law. Should a conviction follow, an appeal to the President will certainly be taken. Lead- ing democrats and republicans say they will back Hughes with all the money necessary to take the case to Washington. ————— Socialists Exclude Anarchists, Yesterday's session of the international socialist congress at Zurich, Switzerland, was marked by a great deal of excitement. Mr. Cahan of the United States advocated the exclusion of the French and Dutch delegates. A resolution was carried to ad- mit delegates only from societies recogniz- ing the necessity of the organization of labor concurrently with political action. The adoption of this resolution, which was tantamount to the exclusion of the anarch- ists, led to a great uproar. In the excites ment Herr Lander, a Berlin anarchist, used a stick and precipitated a hand-to-hand fight, in which he was at length over- jowered by the bystanders, When order Fad ‘been somewhat restored the congress proceeded to the discussion of the agricul: tural and other items on the program, Committees were appointed, consisting of three representatives of each nation, to systematize each day's work. Herr Singer of Berlin was elected chairman of the con- gress, AGAINST THE SHERMAN LAW. A Majority of Congress Claimed te Favor Its Repeal. ‘The New York Herald today has the fol- lowing Washington special showing that a majority of the present Congress is in favor of the repeal of the Sherman silver purchase act. On the Sherman silver law the Senate stands: For unconditional repeal, 39; for conditional repeal, 20; opposed to repeal, 14; non-committal, 10; total, 83. Of the five Senators not here accounted for Mr. Morgan ts absent, Mr. Beckwith has resigned, Mr. Perkins has not been sworn in and the seats of Mr. Mantle and Mr. Al- len are contested. The House stands: For unconditional re- Peal, 137; conditional repeal, 125; opposed to 1, 16; non-committal, 24; total, 302. ‘he Sherman law is doomed.

Pink roses make an ally pretty summer table decoration, partioulariy ie combined with green and silver. For in- Stance, the table center may be of Harris linen in a pale shade of green, embroidered with a conventional design in faint tones of pink touched here and there with silver thread. At each corner is placed a small specimen of one of the wooden garden bas- kets, known sometimes as “trugs” oF “trucks,” which has been painted with sil- ver enamel and filled with roses, half blown and in bud, the handle of the basket being trimmed with smartly tied bows of pale pink ribbon, trails of variegated Japanese joneysuckle and the quaint brown rosettes of the “Mother of Thousands.”" In the center of the table stands « larger “trug,”” and in front of the guests Ile clus- ters of rosebuds and foliage tied with pink ribbons. The small silver lamps should have puffed shades of shot pink and green chiffon, and the menu should be written on rough pale green cards, with the customary inscription in raised silver letters, a tiny cornucopia-like pocket of folded card being ened at one side at the top to hold a dainty rose buttonhole. A ‘white rose table is even more charming than a pink one, and is particu- larly appropriate this season. The white cluster roses, which are known in some parts of the country as the “Seven Sisters,” answer very well, although they are not 80 often seen in town as the more costly but scarcely more beautiful kinds. Mixed with their own leaves or with fern, and ar- ranged in round tips closely covered with crimped green crepe paper, they look ex- ceedingly pretty, or. if a more expensive scheme can be indulged in, the tins may be hidden by bags of green and silver brocade, tied with silver cord, out of the mouths of which the flowers should seem to fall. Here and there on the cloth (if a spread fs used it should be green or green and silver) should be laid true lovers’ knots formed of roses. The menu should be written on the rose petal cards, and the shades should be white gauze looped with roses. -_ Her Time of Proba: From Puck. He—“Gladys, I must beg of you, while you are an engaged girl, to observe a few of the lUmits of propriety. Your flirtations are the talk of the town.” She—“Well, but you knew I was a flirt when you asked me to be your wife. You can’t expect that marriage will make any difference. He—“I don’t expect it—of course not! But I should like you to show some slight sense of decency until you are married.” : DO, TUESDAY. AUGUST 8, 1893. THE MESSAGE. Se ae (Continued from First Page.) over to the exclusive use of @ currency greatly depreciated according to the stand- ard of the commercial world, we could no longer claim a place among nations of the first class, nor could our Government claim @ performance of its obligation, so far as Such an obligation has been imposed upon it, to provide for the use of the people the best and safest money. If, as many of its friends claim, silver ought to occupy a larger place in our cur- rency and the currency of the world through general international co-oper:ition and agreement, it is obvious that the Uni- ted States will not be in a position to gain @ hearing in favor of such an arrangement 80 Jong as we are willing to conjinue our attempt to accomplish the result single handed. The knowledge in business circles among our own people that our Government can- not make its fiat equivalent to intrinsic value, nor keep inferior money on a parity with superior money by its own independ- ent efforts, has resulted in such a lack cf confidence at home in the stability of cur- rency values that capital refuses its aid to new enterprises while millions are act- ually withdrawn from the channels of trade and commerce to become idle and unpro- ductive in the hands of timid owners. For- eign investors equally alert not only de- cline to purchase American securities but make haste to sacrifice those which they already have. . Apprehension Must Be Removed. It does not meet the situation to say that apprehension in regard to the future of our finances is groundless and that there is no reason for lack of confidence in the pur- Poses or power of the government in the premises. The very existence of this ap- Prehension and lack of confidence, how- ever caused, is a menace which ought not for a moment to be disregarded. Possibly if the undertaking we have in hand, were the maintenance of a specific known quant- ity of silver at a parity with gold, our abil- ity to do so might be estimated and gauged, and perhaps in view of our unparalleled growth and resources, might be favorably Passed upon. But when our avowed en- deavor is to maintain such parity in re- gard to an amount of silver increasing at the rate of fifty millions of dollars yearly, with no fixed termination to such increase, it can hardly be said that a problem is presented whose solution is free from doubt. Entitled to a Sound Currency. ‘The people of the United States are en- titled to a sound and stable currency and to money recognized as such on every ex- change and in every market of the worid. Their government has no right to injure them by financial experimea's oppored to the policy and practice of other civilized states nor is it justified in permitting an exaggerated and unreasonable reliance on our national strength and ability to jeop- ardize the soundness of the people's money. This matter rises above the plane of party pélitics. It vitally concerns every business and calling and enters every household in the land. There is one important sspect of the subject which especially shoul] never be overlooked. At times like the present, when the evils of unsound finance threaten us, the speculator may anticipate a harvest gathered from the misfortune of others, the capitalist may protect himself by hoarding or may even find profit in the fluctuation of values; but the wage-earner—the first to be injured by a depreciated curreacy and the last to receive the benefit of its correction— 1s practically defenseless. Mie relics for work upon the ventures of confident and contented capital. This failing him, his condition is without alleviation, for he can neither prey on the misfortunes of others, nor hoard his labor. One of the greatest statesmen our country has known, speaking more than fifty years ago when a derangement of the currency had caused commercial distress, said: “The very man of all others who has the deepest interest in a sound currency and who suffers most by mischievous legislation in money wat- ters, is the man who earns his daily bread by his daily toil.” These words are as pertinent now as on the day they were uttered, and ought to impressively remind us that a failure in the discharge of our duty at this time must especially injure those of our countrymen who labor, and who because of their num- ber and condition are entitled to the most watchful care of their government. It 1s of the utmost importance that such relief as Congress can afford in the existing ituation be afforded at once. The maxim ‘He gives twice who gives quickly,” ts di- rectly applicable. It may be true that the embarrassments from which the business of the country is suffering arise as much from evils apprehended as from those ac- tually existing. We may hope, too, that calm counsels will prevail and that neither the capitalists nor the wage earners give way to unreasoning panic, and sacrifice their property or their interests under the influence of exaggerated fears. Neverthe- less, every day’s delay in removing une of the plain and principal causes of the pres- ent state of things enlarges the mischief al- ready done and increases the responsibility of the government for its existence. What- ever else the people have a right to expect from Congress they may certainly demand that legislation condemned by the ordeal of three years’ disastrous experience shall be removed from the statute books as avon as their representatives can legitimately deal with it. Tariff Reform Must Wait. It was my purpose to summon Congress in special session early in the coming Sep- tember that we might enter promptly upon the work of tariff reform, which the true interests of the country clearly demand, which so large @ majority of the people as shown by their suffrages, desire and ex- pect, and to the accomplishment of which every effort of the present administration is pledged. But while tariff reform has lost nothing of immediate and permanent im- portance, and must in the near future en- gage the attention of Congress, it has seemel to me that the financial condition of the country should at once and before all other subjects, be considered by your honorable body, Prompt Repeal Urged. I earnestly recommend the prompt re- Peal of the provisions of the act passed July 14, 189, authorizing the purchase of silver bullion, and that other legislative action may put beyond all doubt or mis- take the intention and the ability of the Government to fulfill its pecuniary obli- gations in money universally recognized by all civilized countries, GROVER CLEVELAND. ——_—__- THEY WERE CLOSE TO WAR. The Sword was Nearly Drawn by France and England a Week Ago. Just before leaving London for a holiday on Friday, Lord Roseberry said to @ polit- ical friend: “We were nearer to a war with France a Yreek ago today than at any time since Wa- erloo.”” Now that the crisis has passed the facts about the momentus two days of the 2th and 23th of July are gradually coming out. Englishmen are learning with genuine alarm how slender is the thread by which the sword is suspended over Europe. ————_+- e+ —___ MR. HORR ATTACKS DARWINISM. ‘The Ex-Congressman Says Apes Were Not the Ancestors of the Human Race. Ex-Congressman Roswell G. Horr of Michigan spoke at the national service in the auditorium at Asbury Park Sunday. In the course of his remarks he made an attack upon Darwinism and its theories. Mr. Horr said he believed the scientist was one of the greatest men that ever lived, and was earnest and thorough in his re- searches, but he felt confident that Darwin hit wide of the mark when he drew his final conclusions on the evolution of man. Mr. Horr deciared that it was his belief that at a not far distant time it would be demonstrated that the mind acts independ- ently of the body, and when that. time comes Darwin's theories will be worthless. He further said that when God saw the necessity for the ape He created it, though not as the ancestor of the human race. During the service a letter was read from ¢x-President Harrison expressing sympathy for the work being accomplished at the national services.
