FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL “Letting I Dare Not Wait Upon I Would.” Congressional Hesitancy and Commercial Inaction. eee CONTINUED DULNESS Progress Made in the Discussion of the Financial Problem and What It Means. CURRENT DATA. WALL STRERT, WEDNESDAY, Feb. 25, 11} Senator Sherman’s views on the subject of the National dance with the expression of what he | “would do in the way of reform if he had itin hia" power, as printed this morning, are a fair sample of the misapprehension of the question of inflation which seems to prevail in some of the vest minds ef Congress. The Senator says he would do five things in the order named :— First—I would definitely settle as a fixed policy that not one dollar more of paper money should be beer ty until what we have is at par with gold and uver. This sounds like very pronounced ground to stand upon; but, examined, it is not quite so clear. Ol course, the Senator means that he would limit the issue of greenbacks to the amount now author- ized by law, whatever that maybe, until these greenbacks became worth par. This is very well; ‘but does he mean that he would limit tne creation of currency by banks to the same xed standard? If a0, HM MISTAKES BANK EXPANSION FOR CURRENCY IN- FLATION, as he would seem to indicate in his second propo- | sition, a8 follows: — Second—I would allow national banks to be or- genus. im the South and West until each State ad its share, and would withdraw circulation drom banks i States that have more than their share. Dut confesses the folly of any such effort at | regulation of the currency in the remark which | follows:—“In doing this 1 know it will not prevent ‘the notes from going where trade carries them; Dut tt will give each State the benefit of local anks and stife a local clamor,” How {s it that he fails to follow out the lesson which this glimmering comprehension of the true principle of regulating bank currency points to? ‘which is that trade wants will supply the best governor. Under a system of free banking each #ection will have what it can profitably employ, and to maintain the value of its currency each ank will have to contract when the volume out- | standing becomes redundant and places it at a dis- count to that in which it is redeemable, when, of | course, it would be presented for redemption. WITH LEGAL TENDERS AS THE MEDIUM OF REDEME- TION the natural law of supply and demand would oper. | ate precisely as though that redemption were to de in gold and silver. Further on the Senator gays: Third—I would get back the greenback circula- ‘tion to the old Limit of $356,000,000 and establish ‘the $44,000,000 of retired and cancelled notes as a eve tobe used only for exigencies defined by We, Query—How isthe greenback circulation to be | ot back to $356,000,0007 If by retrenchment this “is @ sound enough suggestion; but it by increased taxation it would de only a repetition in a slightly modified form, but more dangerous just at this | ‘time, Of the error that is so largely responsible for our present crippled condition—of imposing an un- due burden of taxation upon the country, and so hampering its industries, in the effort to buy up the | debt before maturity. Fourth, Senator Sherman says, to appreciate the ‘eenback I would authorize it to be converted nto & five per cent bond at the option of the holder, to be paid out again at the option of the PSG for the payment or purchase of tive- wenty bonds. Why change a non-interest bearing debt for an 4nterest burdened debt? How will increasing the debt of the country appreciate the currency of the country? Fyth, and finally, says the Senator, I would very | slowly accumulate gold in the Treasury and in the | banks, 80 as to take advantage of the first favor- apie opportunity to resume specie payments. In ‘this way we can easily, surely and wisely reach a ‘@pecie standard, which is the only true basis of | Production and the best for both capital and labor. 4 MOST WISE AND CORRECT CONCLUSION. If the Senator had commenced and ended here he would have given more instruction to his col- Jeagues as to what is required in the premises than Senator Schurz in his two speeches, or was con- tafned in the entire debate on tne finances since Congress met. St ean be summed up in a nutshell. ‘We must accumulate more and spend less. Do precisely what any man in business would ‘who found himself embarrassed and wished to avoid failure, But’ we must avoid ‘the mistake of supposing that an extension oftime granted us by our creditors in the shape ‘of fresh paper, which merely apedanteg | the old laims and enables us still to carry on business on the capital we have left, means increased lia- Bilities. The increased hability, in that case, ‘would be regulated by the interest obligation we dneurred, A DIVERSYON WAS ATTEMPTED IN AI BANY dy the introduction of a bill in the Senate by Mr, Lowery for the appointment of a railroad com- mission for the entire State. This appears to be an effort to saddle the famous ilinois Railroad Jaw, or something tike it, as an incubus upon the commerce of this State, and the chances of its success were so lightly considered on the street that it failed of producing any effect. There is too darge an understanding of the great commercial ‘wants of this State among the people to favor guch legislation. Among the other incidents of the day wis the announcement that Attorney General Williams had decided that the Secretary of the Treasury May withhold from ratlroad com- panies compensation for transportation when each company has received from the United States Subsidies to aid in the construction of one of its toads while there are bonds upon which it has uot paid interest, alfhougn the service was ren- dered upon another of its roads, upon which no government ald was given. This may be law, or dt may be equity, but it sounds very much like “crowner’s ‘quest’ law, and, in view of the fact ‘that Mr, Williams was not elevated to the post- ‘tion of Chief Justice, is likely to be disputed by the companies interested. GOLD CLOSED at 112%, the sales of the day ranging from 0 112%. The market is wholiy without in- . The loaving rates ranged from flat for Dorrowing to 4 per cent for carrying, closing at 3 per cent.

WEDNESDAY, Feb. 25—6P.M. | The trade movement was interrupted by the severe snow storm, and business was exceedingly | slow in merchandise for immediate delivery. There was comparatively little speculative feeling ap- parent, and but 4 moderate amount of transactions not based upon actual requirements were consum- mated. At the Produce Exchange the tumbie in wheat proved the most noteworthy feature. The unfavorable report.of the cable despatches noticed yesterday affected the market still more untavor- ably to-day, and low as prices became, shippers’ lumits were generally reduced to a still lower point,and sat the close a further reduction was inaisted upon. Corn and oats also ruled m buyers’ favor, though there was no material change. Whiskey remained unchanged. Pork was still dull and nominal, although small sales for immediate dehvery were reported at full prices. Lard was still dull and the market was easy. Freights | were quiet but steady. Groceries were quiet and the market easier, particularly for coffee and eugar. Cotton met with @ better demand, and prices for lots on the spot were steady: while for forward delivery # slight advance was obtained. Petroleum was dull and nom | inally unchanged in value. Naval stores were quiet, bu; firm, for all descriptions. Corton on the spot was generally quiet, but steady. 1,400 bales of the sales below reported for export were d of in one office, the market in the main being owing to the inciemency of the woathe eries ruled firmer, closing steady ture provement of 139. a c., with considerable activi bbe tag mage Alabama. 1.
