CLEVELAND, Feb. 21.-On Saturday the
presidents and cashiers of the Cleveland
national banks sent telegram to Representa-
tive Townsend Of this district, that the fund
ing bill as passed by the Senate would be fatal
10 the national banking system, and must force
banks TO retire circulation and thus result dis
astrous to all branches of business. This
morning the following was sent to President
Hayes To the President, Washington, d. c.
The associated banks and bankers OF this city,
composing the clearing houses, are -unani-
mousIy of the opinion that the passage of the
funding bill, with the fifth section included,
will prove disastrous to the business OF the
country, aud they respectfully express the
hope you will see your way clear to interpose
your veto against such calamity. (Signed),
