MORE LESSONS FoR TIE SILVER MEN,

REQUIRING A GOLD BASIS FOR LOANS IN THE WEST
ACTION or MORTGAGE COMPANY AND \ TRUST
CONiPANN-POsITlON OF TIE BANKS AND TRUST
COMPANIES GENERALLY
The British aud American Mortgage Com
ISSUED orders to their agents Western ct not loan
any more money NOR gage, unless those receiving the
loans agree 10 have clause inserted IN he bond for the
payment OF the principal and interest in gold. Pfes
dent W II. Shattuck, OF the British and Amer
lean Mortgage Company, the first TO issue
such an order, and his example speedily followed
by LOUIS Fitzgerald, OF the Mercantile Trust Company
II ia asserted downtown that similar Will bo
pursued by all the trust companies that loan money
real estate. The Western agents have forwarded the
responses received from applicants for loans, many OF
which insulting, aud such phrases rs "Wall--t.
sharks" money kings" and boated bondholders" are
fleey used.
The president Of leading hank, in referring to tho
order is7ued by The trust companies, said. yesterday
that the banks OF this city pretty nearly unit
against making any loans bonds OF Western and South
cities except on gold basis until the Silver Bill
should be either passed defeated lie added these
parts OF the country clauOrOus for renOnetZa-
lion OF silver aud the repeal OF the R,sump-
ton Act would learn by their failure 10
raise money that tho evils OF SILVER legislation
were already upon them lie cXpr ssed tie belief that
with unity Of action this subject among the banks
of New-York, Boston, and Philadelphia and the real
trust companies eyes OF The people would be
opened and the defeat of the Bland silver Bill or any
other scheme ike 10, would be secured. ALREADY" he
said in conclusion, "transactons In aud per cents
are closed except at loss account Of the fear OF
mischieVous legislation by Congress on the currency
question, and holders OF money Will not loan away
