THE BANKERS
Discussing the Evil RHects OF Excess
sIVe Taxation of Banking Insti-
tutiOns, and other Matters
OF Interest.

SARATOGA, August SIN the bankers as
ISOLATION to-day, ]. d. Vermilye, of New
York, presented en- elaborate table, prepared
at the clearing house, showing the disastrous
effects produced and still menacing the
country by reason OF the excessive taxation of
banks. He shows how the capital and sur
plus Of banks had been depleted during the
past few years, and asked the executive
council to take action to bring the facts to
the knowledge of congress.
The executive council, by G.. S. Coe, of
New York, and L. G. Murray, of Louisville,
reported the following:
Resolued, That in the opinion of this association
the near approach of the day appointed by law for
the resumption of coin payment and values is to be
hailed event of the highest Significance to the
II is the only means by which industry, trade and
general tranquility IN be restored 10 the people
The American bankers association therefore pledge
aid and support to the government on the return to
specie standard In the transaction Of the financial
affairs of the country.
ResotUed That the resources of the country arising
from abundant crops in several successive years,
with other nations, and from the rapid development
OF mechanical Inventions and appliances, by which
productive Industry has been Facilitated and In
creased all happily concur in supplying the neces-
sary means for coin resumption.
Mr.. Falls, of Cincinnati, and others from
the west, opposed the resolutions upon the
ground of iexpediency, although approving
their character.
Messrs. Il. y. murray, OF LOUISVILLE, IL. L.
Roots, of Arkansas, Atkins, of Michigan,
Hays, of Detroit, A. II. Moss, of Sandusky,
with others, advocated the resolutions, and
they were finally adopted unanimously.
Mr.. George Wilson, jr., cashier of the
Savings bank at Lexington, Missouri, pre-
sented paper arguing against the Federal
government chartering banks and favoring
return to the State bank system.
Mr.. J. f. Nowise, Of Boston, presented a
paper on the popular demand for the substi-
tuition of greenbacks for national bank notes
and the vital danger of such substitution,
with the objections to it. He holds that
there is no constitutional power In congress to
make anything but gold and silver coin q
legal-tender.

NEW YORK POLITICS.
Samuel }. Tilden, Judge Church and
HOratiO seymour he old Mans
Defeat III Last Years
Convention.

New York special to the Chicago Times,
9th: 1t is said that Samuel J. Tjlden has had
his private political machine in full blast for
more than SIX months, but that he is making
very little Roadway. He is doing all he can
to effect reconciliation with Chlef-J ustlce
Church, of the court of appeals, who has a
larger Democratic following than any other
politician in the State. 1t Is reported that
Iilden' overtures have been coldly received.
Judge Church probably remembers that when
he declined the offered nomination for gov
ernor and showed friendliness for Tilden, the
latter, after obtaining the nomination and
election, began at once to undermine
JUDGE CHURCH's
political Influence. 1t is said that he now
offers his influence to make Church United
States senator, and that Judge Church has no
ambition in that direction. He knows that
his political fortunes probably depend upon
his controlling the Democratic State conven-
ton. He sorely felt his defeat in last year S
convention. He had believed he was sure of
having everything his Owl way, and went off
to Europe so rs to appear to be a silent spec
tator OF party differences. 4 Democrat who
was IN Paris at the time tells to-day how Til
den received the news of the defeat of his
faction. Tilden, John Bigelow, and Hewitt
were sauntering down one of the boulevards
the morning after the
ALBANY CONVENTION,
when they were met by a prominent New
York politician. Mr.. Hewitt stepped in adj
vance of his friends and asked the gentleman
if he had any news of the convention. Eyes, -
he replied, Mr.. Tlden's friends have been
beaten" ''Say nothing about it to Tilden, -
SAID Hewitt; let MIN find it out himself. He
will be disappointed and morose and keep
under a cloud for a day" As soon as Tilden
came up he suspected that there was bad
news, and when he made inquiry the unwel-
to John BIgelow and said: This comes of
my listening to
THE ADVICE OF MY FRIENDS.
If had been on the field this thing would
not have happened" He made a running
bitter commentary on some of his friends in
the State, saying that if this one had done thus
and that one that they might have changed
the complexion of the delegations and con-
trolled the convention. At the hotel Mr..
Tilden found private dispatches confirming
his defeat. For the remainder OF the day ne
was almost speeehless and walked about with
the apparently vacant and unIeadaole express
sion frequently seen on his countenance when
he Is vexed or is engaged IN some deep think
ing.
EX-GOVERNOR SEYMOUR
is said to be among the prominent Democrats
who are dissatisfied with Mr.. Tilden. Natur-
ally he is displeased to see Tilden step IN and
take the position he has always held in the
party. Then, he charges the defeat of his
relative, Fairchild, in the last convention
upon Tlden. The old gentleman opposition
Is certainly not encouraging to Tilden's pros
poets

A MYSTERIOUS DEATH

story not Believed.

MILWAUKEE. August 8.-About six o'clock
this morning, Henry Vanryn, residing at No.
$50 Eleventh street, was found by his wife
lying dead upon the floor, with his throat cut
from ear to ear. Vanryn had quarreled with
his wife during the night, and she states that
about FIVE o'clock this morning, after truce
had been declared, she was awakened
by a crushing blow upon the temple.
She sprang from the bed and found her hus-
band standing before her with bar of iron.
His manner was so threatening that she be-
came frightened and fed down the stairs.
While bathing her head she heard noise
overhead, as some one falling. Ascending
the stairs, she discovered her husband lying
upon the floor in a pool of blood. Near at
hand was an open razor with which
it is supposed he had committed suicide.
There are some who are unwilling to accept
Mrs. Vanryn's version of the affair, and
think she IS implicated to a greater extent
than she is willing to admit. The coroner's
jury have not yet concluded their investiga-

The authorities Of Pennsylvania are greatly
excited over the discovery of an over-issue of
the loan of 1853 to the amount Of forty-Bine
thousand dollars. The loan was originally
for four hundred thousand dollars, and the
fact that for nineteen years the coupons of
none of the bonds, in excess OF that amount,
except the twerty-eight thousand dollars that
turned up in 1858, have been presented for
payment, indicates that until very recently
the bonds were IN the possession of the per-
son or persons who fraudulently converted
them.
