reputable companies for security, have had
their money exposed to more than the ordi-
nary commercial risks. Somebody has been,
not unfortunate, but criminal, in every such
case. Somebody has disregarded most
sacred trust. There ought to DO swift
and stern punishment for every such offence.
If court finds il necessary to interfere for
protection of its depostors, it ought to see that,
in the nature Of the case, somebody must have
wronged dcpositors and must deserve from
the court punishment commensurate with the
protection needed. Az long as We call 1t n

This Congress is afflicted with too great ac-

The Senate has promptly confirmed the Hon.

gains a good Judge. The President seems
to have some influence in the matter of ap-
pOintments, after all.

rest, beginning to-day and Congress the same
period of profound leisure. We respectfully
recommend both Houses to give both fort

Another well-directed blow at the Brother
hood of Locomotive Engineers comes from
the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western and
Lebgh Valley Railroads, which have issued a
notice that no member of that organization or
of the Trainmen's Union will be retained after

Mr.. Best's report upon the condition Of the
National Trust Company adds another to the
long line of revelations of incOmpetency or
Unfaithfulness in the management Of financial
institutions. The grOsscst maladministratiOn
is made known, by which the capital has
been impaired to the extent of $780, 900.
A large proportion of the collaterals are stated
to be wholly unknown, and sometimes to
have no value whatever In some cases
large loan accounts have been suffered to
stand open, though they should have been
closed and the collaterals converted into
cash years ago But the most singular
feature in Mr.. Best's report is the extraordi-
nary nature of the securities held by the Trust
Company. There are $275,000 worth of rail-
road bonds. for which there are no quotations !;
nearly 100000, which are quoted at 45 !;
S16O. 900, two-thirds of which are quoted at
rs. and one-third at 90. The amount held in
United States bonds is only 100000 much
smaller amount than the company once held
and, in State Or city securities OF the classes
in which investment was allowed by the
charter. there is little or nothing. For all this
wretched instrumentation call 1t by no
harder name-Mr Best is careful to say the
Trustees are not directly responsible. This
puts the blame squarely upon the officers,
where it doubtless belongs. 1t should be
added that there is no reason why these
disclosures should awaken dstrust Of other
institutions, and no probability that they will.
The condition of this company has been well
understood outside.

Senator Gordon lost his head so often yes
terday, that he must have felt for it when
the executive session was over to see
if it was still on his shoulders. He
actually went so far as to say to
Senator Conkling that the dispute be-
tween them might be settled outside
of the Senate meaning. apparently, to suggest
a return to the Old-time Southern duel and
though he had but lately appeared in the Sen
ate as the leader Of the forces of
Civil Service Reform, he angrily insisted
in effect that he and Mr.. Hill, his colleague,
ought to be allowed to dispose of nominal
ton in their own State. General Gordon may
please the people of Georgia by his martial
innuendoes, but even Georgia would like to
see him consistent on the question of reform
for three days running.

Even the reputation of being connected with
the Tweed Ring though unjust to it, is cited
AZ among the causes why the Oriental Savings
Bank now passes into the hands of receiver
For aught that yet appears, the bank was not
msmanaged, but it lacked popular confidence.
1t goes to a receiver with an apparent surplus
of assets, but hey are not convertible into
cash at present without loss. The trustees
claim that they have made investments in
strict accordance with the law, and that there
has been neither stealing nor extravaganza.
If the receiver manages prudenty and with
economy the depositors should not be heavy
losers.

President MacMahon's message completes
the Republican victory. 1t is so inconsistent
with his declarations and acts since last May
that it might be supposed to emanate from
some one less stubborn. If it expresses his real
sentiments his conversion is complete, and the
Republicans need apprehend no more capricious
dissolutions nor vexatious intrigues. The
President recognizes, as fully as could
be desired, the parliamentary principle
that the Cabinet should be in harmony
with the Chamber OF Deputies, and
holds out prospects of concord between both
branches of the Legislature. The circum-
stances under which the Marshal yielded
account partly for the completeness of his

The conflict at Metchka, on Wednesday, ap-
pears to have had the proportions of great
battle Sixty Turkish battalions attacked the
forces of the Grand Duke Nladimer, south
west of Rustchuk and, after seven hours
fighting, were repulsed with heavy loss
Metchka, which was attacked six times
without success, is nine miles from Rust
chuk, on the road to Biela. The affair
shows that the Turks are not completely de-
pressed by the Plevna disaster, but it like
wise indicates that the Russian position be-
tween the LON and the Jantra is practically
impregnable.
