OF an enforced descent into the water. MIR. Wise
will not be of the party, nor will Mr. Orion, who
had arranged with Wise, previous to the last at
tempt, to take him as passenger. Orton said
he had followed nearly every pursuit under the
sun, and wished to cap the climax by tIansocean
oallooning. The boat will serve As the only car,
and part of the space between it and the bal
loon will be enclosed with canvas, in order TO
protect the travellers from the cold. They will
have good store of blankets and very thick
clothing. Donaldson looks forward to being
carried by an east and by a north current to the
coast of Norway, though the influence of the
gulf stream upon the atmosphere may land him
in Ireland. Messrs. Donaldson and Lunt have
already been enlarged upon in the papers. Mr.
Ford Is writer upon the Graphic, and a young
man of very sterling character. He is always
ready to risk his neck in a good cause, and
served in the cavalry during the war. There

THE MONETARY SITUATION IN
WASHINGTON.
Encouraging Condition or Affairs
Here

The financial situation in Washington re-
mains unchanged. AT all of the banks to-day
the deposits exceeded the disbursements. The
bank officials say that the advices from their
New York correspondents are highly encour-
aging. In large number of instances deposit
to- who gave notice of their intention to with
draw their deposits have withdrawn these
notices.
The gentlemen who are moving in behalf of
MIR. Ruff, OF the Washington City Savings
bank, are now waiting for a statement of the
condition of the bank from Mr.. Edattingly, the
receiver, before taking further action. This
statement, which will not be ready before Sat
uTday or Monday next, it Is expected will show
the bank to be in a condition to warrant plsc-
ing Mr.. Ruff in charge. A meeting of deposi-
tors will then be held to act upon the matter.
MIR: Ruff, who is daily improving, expresses his
willingness to take any course which the deposit
tors of the bank desire'
LEGALITY OF CERTIFIED CHECKS UNDER THE
BANKING LAWS.
The Controller of the Currency denies that he
has expressed the opinion that the whole SYSTEM
of certified checks, as adopted by the clearing
committees OF the banks of this and other cities,
is illegal and an infraction of section eight of
the national banking act. Section eight of the
national currency act defines the business a
powers" thereof. including the "receiying of
deposits" 1t is claimed by the dispatches that
this provision shall be SO construed as to mean
that the said banks shall pay their depositors in
currency on demand. Section fifty three of the
same act provides that in the discretion of the
controller any bank may be placed in the hands
of a receiver for a violation of the provisions of
the act, but also further provides that in his
discretion he may place these matters in the
hands of the courts.
GREENBACKs COMING IN.
AS an evidence of the turn of the tide to the
banks instead of from them, it may be men,
toned that $40 900 in greenbacks was deposited
at the National Metropolitan bank to-day, by
one depositor.
THE BUSINESS AT THE CLEARINGHOUSE
in this city last evening did not exhibit any in
crease over that of the day previous, although
1t is probable that some checks that have been
certified still remain in private hands, and did
not therefore appear in the days clearances.
The business thus far is shown by the following
figures: Monday, September %, SIS ,26S; Tues
day, September 80, S21, $50; Wednesday, Octo-
Der ], S19, 115. Total clearances, S59, 1924. The
members of the controlling committee express
ed the opinion at the close of the transactions
last evening that the banks were gaining
strength much more rapidly than had been ex-
pected.
