TIE SANTANA CASE.

The SANTANA Bay Company have drawn up
scheme of operations which is pretty nearly
what. everybody must have expected. They
intend to call upon the United States Govern
ment to reinstate them in the possessions
from which they have been so unceremoni
ously expelled, and they will make a demand
upon the Dominican authorities for indemnity,
which they will doubtless expect the United
States to support. Indeed, they say, their own
interests and those of our Government are to
certain extent identical, because the United
States is a tenant of theirs, having accepted
lease of the Island of Alavantado as a naval
station. 1t is by no means improbable there
fore that we are to have more trouble with
this wretched SantO Domingo business, for
the Company are likely to receive much more
consideration at Washington than they are in
any way entitled to.
Their case is very different from that of
American citizens who pursue regular
business in foreign land. When such per-
sons are wronged in their persons or their
property they are entitled to the protection of
their Government But the SANTANA Bay Com
pany virtually renowned their nationality.
They attempted to set up little independent
state of their own, with their own laws, their
own governor, their own police, their own
custom house, their own system Of taxation,
their own navy, and, if they chose to use it,
their own flag. They bought the right to do
this from the owners of the territory
on which they settled, and it was
stipulated between buyer and seller
that in case of any dispute the
matter in controversy should be referred to
arbitration. The Company entered into this
speculation with their eyes wide open, know
ing the character of the men with whom they
dealt, and knowing that the Government from
which they obtained their extraordinary con-
cessions was so near dissolution that it must
Immediately go to pieces If it could not raise
few dollars by pawning its sovereignty
Common sense must have satisfied them that
a Government of this kind could not guaran-
fee their title to the Peninsula, and that when
it went to pieces, as it must do in few
months, their claims would be worth very lit
tie. We have no doubt that it was always
the purpose of the Company when that catas-
trophe came, to abandon the pleasant theory
of quasi independent state and fall back upon
the United States Navy; and that was the
principal object in persuading Gen. Grant to
take lease of AlavantadO.
Our Government had no business to become
anybody's under-tenant. Especially had it no
business TO contract with landlord who was
utterly incapable of making good his agree
ments and if it has now been swindled, let
it by all means pocket the loss in silence
The plain truth of the whole matter is that
little knot of New-YOrk spectators have
been cheated,-not by the Dominican people
nor by the Dominican Republic, but by Mr..
| Buenaventura Baez, and there is not tho

POLITICAL NOTES.

II takes a pretty bold organ to make an
assertion like this in Tke;IGioaukee Senhne at viii
scarcely pretended that there anything IN tho
OF this Sanborn arrangement that was corrups
Or improper"
Gov. Kemper of Virginia has written a long
letter response to resolutions commenting his
veto Of the Petersburg charter In which he that
standing the strength OF his convictions OF duty he
has observed with composure the assaults made apon
him.
An esteemed friend Of THE TRIBUNE in
Baltimore, who has tho fullest means OF knowing what
he is talking about writes that dispatch from that
city, published IN THE TRIBUNE April l3 does great in
Justice to Gov Whyte by falsely representing him as
involved ins political intrigue concerning the oce OF
Acknowledgement Our correspondent says there Is NOT
particle OF truth in the made in the dispatch
that Gov. whyte had removed Adjutant-General Nc
Blair and appointed in his place Gen. Frank Bond
He says Gov. Whyte appointed McBlair. and has re-
fused him, they warm personal friends.
and has appointed Gen Bond weiGher OF Grain in Bal
timore He also denies that there Is any breach III the
ranks Of the Democratic Conservative party
Ex-Gov. Curtin of Pennsylvania has been
spending several months in the Southern States for the
purpose Of recruiting his health and now journeyng
through the Western cities At every turn he seems to
be beset with newspaper reporters, anxious to obtain
his views on current At st. Louis reporter OF
The Times had long conversation with him, and
obtained from him interesting observations on the
condition OF the Southern States. He expressed him
self greatly distressed at the amentabe situation In
Louisiana and South Carolina, and was convinced that
SO soon as the North became 1uly informed OF an h
there, reaction would take place IN favor OF nose
oppressed States He told reporter or The Chtcdgo

less uuarrels whenever they attempt to discuss
with Cubans the condition of affairs in Cuba
These sincere and devoted patriots. who care
nothing for danger or privation in the ser
vice of their country, who would willingly
sacrifice their lives for it, cannot sacrifice
their preiudices. In Cuba it is no better
The most persistent, high min ded, courageous
and cultivated chief of the instruction was
Carlos Manuel Cespedes. But even among the
gallant band of insurgents which he led IN
the mountains, and which called Itself the
Republican Government, the restless tendency
TO mutinous intrigue was too strong to be
restrained and he was dismissed from the
leadership, to be murdered shortly afterwards
by o band of Spanards, as he was trying to
reach the coast. In moments OF enthusiasm,
we have seen the Cubans display great
heroism and self-sacrifce. But they have not
vet convinced this country or the world at
large that the mass of the population Is
sufficiently united or enough in earnest to
achieve O separate national existence. Still
less have they already done so.
The advocates of annexation try to re-
enforce their cause by appeals to what we
hope is an almost extinct national jealousy.
The Santo Domingo financiers who have been
swindlcd by a chocoate-colored statesman OUT
of their concession would fam have 1T be-
leved that Consul st. John bribed the
Dominican Dictator to do this wrong TO
Yankee enterprise. And in like manner the
Caribbean Ring at Washington are clamor-
Ing that we should hurry to make q COM
mercial treaty with the Cuban Republic
before "our great rivar has secured monop-
oily of the trade which is to spring UP on the
departure of the Spaniards: 1t is possible
that Gen. Grant may think there is danger
of this. We do not assume to fathOm the
depths of his statesmanlike provisions. But
no intelligent man imagines that England
wishes any more entanglements in this
hemisphere than she has already, and If
she were looking out for commercial treaties
she would hardly be tempted by the prospect
of entering into relations with Republic
which is not yet born, to secure trade which
the laws of nature will give to MS whenever
the Spanish flag is withdrawn. But to accom-
plish this there are only two ways open
drive Spain out ourselves, or wait until the
Cubans do it. 1t is childish to pretend the
Cubans have done il already.

THE NEW CURRENCY EXPERIMENT

The hill which has passed the Senate and
JJonse and is now in the hands of the Presi-
dens. is destined, we think, to have important
effects upon the credit system of the country
Tho magnitude of the changes cannot
be predicted in advance, but the nature Oh
Them NAV be stated with some definteness
The first effect will be contraction. taxing q
hank statement which exhibits considerable
strength i'm the reserves-namely that OF June
~. 1s73-and applying the new regulations In
,eoard TO reserves, we find the following changes
produced: III.
7 The banks outside the redemption cities,
now about 900 IN number, and having a cir
culation of S246,OOO,OOO, would be Obliged 10
withdraw from the banks in those cities over
twelve million dollars in legal-tender notes or
snecie. This money would not add q
dollar TO the ability of the country banks
20 make loans or discounts, since
the law requires it to be locked
I'D in the vaults as reserve AS the banks IN
the redemption cities, in case the President
signs the bill, are forbidden to pay interest
on this class of deposits in future, it Is not
unlikely that more than twelve millions would
be called for. The average amount OF money
kept on deposit in redemption cities Dy
the country banks is about sixty MIL
lion dollars. We do not imagine
that much more of this will be WITH
drawn than the amount necessary to comply
with the regulation requiring three-quarters
of the reserve to be kept at home; but II, FOR
any reason, the contrary should prove to be
tbe case. the temporary contraction under the
new law would be cOrrespondingy increased.
r. The banks in the redemption cities, ex-
c,usive of New-York, would have to provide
themselves with currency to respond to the calls
of the country banks and also to augment their
o,tn reserves to the new standard. This would
make it necessary for them to obtain sixteen
million dollars at least, and the whole sum
would be drawn from the banks OF this city.
TIL. The sixteen millions taken from our
banks would act as a simple contraction 10
that extent Luckily, at the present moment,
our banks have about that sum unemployed,
either in the shape OF loans or as part OF the
twenty-five per cent reserve required by law.
Here the movement would end, and the whole
effect would be to extinguish for banking
! niTTff6ses a Sum which mag be estimated at
not less than twenty million dollars, and pos
sibly much more.
We well understand that in the end, under
the new law, the National bank circulation
would expand to S4OOOOO,OoO, to say nothing
of the dishonOrcd legal tenders. The princi-
ple upon which the inhationists appear to be
going is to start back and then lunge forward,
like a locomotive in the effort to start train
of coal cars up heavy grade. The "yank
which will thereby be given to the business
interests of the country will serve to give
everybody notice that the train is in motion,
and heads and arms must be kept inside.
