MILLION DOLLARS WORTH OF THEIR PAPER IN
THAT CITY.
BALTIMORE Nd, August 20, 1873
The failure OF Stirling, Ahrens Co., and the conse-
quent suspension of the Calvert Sugar Refinery Com
pany continue to excite very large share Of attention
and comment in commercial and financial circles To
extent business is depressed by these disasters,
not that 1t is thought other houses will be affected
directly account Of losses which they may have in
Cured but the sudden check given to such large oper
ations necessarily pause and makes caution in
all transactions II is ascertaned that the in
debtedness OF Stirling. Ahrens & Co. to the
Calvert Company will exceed the amount before
given $500 O00 by some 5000 O0O This increases the
doubts as To what may be the actual condition of the
affairs OF the former and also the reliable assets
OF the latter Ii supposed that the paper Of both
concerns outstanding is generally distributed among
banks and capitalists OF this city the interior banks
OF this State and Pennsylvania well those of Phil
adephia and New York, as TO lead to comparatively
little financial distress.
well informed bank officer stated to-day that II was
his opinion that neither the capital dividends of any
of the banking institutions will be diminished by their
losses 1t Is feared that distress will be felt by
number of parties from whom Stirling, Ahrens Co.
purchased the supplies for their vessels their cooperage
establishment and their refneres These supplies
almost invariably purchased credit and many OF
the notes given have not matured and are generally
Endorsed by the parties TO whom they given before
being negotiated 1t is not known that any failures will
take place this account The amount OF the ab-
ties and assets of Stirling Ahrens Co is still matter
of conjecture. The parties to whom they indebted
extremely reticent to the amount involved and

HIS OPINIONS ON FINANCIAL MATTERs-NETTHER
BUL1oNIsT NOR AN INFLATIoNIsT-THE
MONEY QUESTION THE LIVE QUESTION OF
THE DAY.

THE DAY.
UTICA, August 90 1876.
The Herald Of tomorrow will publish an interview
with General F. E. Spinner political and financial
matters
In the matter of his nomination for State Treas
urer the General says he retired from the United States
Treasury with the intention of leaving public
life forever To that intention he still clings and
on no account will he consent to have his
name proposed in the Convention The General
expressed himself freely the financial question: and
gave his theory that of introconvertble bond,
bearing interest at the rate of per cent Not Judge
Kelley's paper bond but bearing interest in gold
and capable of being honoraby and easily substituted
for our present government skies. He denied being
inatlonst in any sense of the word but said that on
the other hand he bullionist and agreed with
nobody who describes and derdes our pres
ent currency as "rag money currency"
He ascrbed the apparent unpopularity of such
n bond to the efforts of the banks to becoud and
deceive the people with regard to its purposes and cf
fects But he predicted time when their and
their false promises would be thoroughly understood
and the people would take the into their own
hands and demand legislation that in their interest
The effect of such bond this, General Spinner said
had been studied out by him in all its ramcations and
he not only convinced that it was "a safe and wise
for Congress enact but that it the only
possible whereby to achieve stable, equitable and
permanent financial basis for the government.
SILVER RESUMPTION
He spoke at length Of the silver resumption clause OF
the act of Congress last winter for which he has only
contempt The government cannot make silver
dollar that will be equal to dollar in gold without
actually resuming specie payments for which has
preparations The present silver dollar can stand
for gold dollar, because it has such equivalent
value. He did not believe that there was much signn-
cameo in the attitude the political parties on the
financial question Neither of them understand what
they quarrelng about and each is trying to throw
more dust than the other.
THE FINANCIAL ISSUE.
But he did believe the financial issue live for ALL
in that it is the issue about which the people think the
most and upon which they most demand light and
right action. Abiding to the failure of the Bank of
California General Spinner predicted more disastrous
consequences from it than had followed any failure in
recent years. Tho Bank of California had for years
controlled the business the politics and all the indus
trial interests of the Pacific slope There no man
doing business there who had been independent of it,
Its operations had been hazardous in the extreme and
always in accordance with the srctest principles of
hon act deal linn
