What WindOm Don't KnOW About Finance
[Gath's New York Letter to Cincinnati En-
quirer.]
l asked what impression had been
made by Mr.. Window on the bankers
"About half half" was the reply,
"Sherman was great favorite with us
because, through his long experience, we
were well acquainted with him, and his
manner, though not the warmest in the
world, was business manner. We saw
that he knew what he was about. There
is the best disposition toward Mr.. Win
dom. We look upon him pretty much in
this way: If we were to go out West to
his district there are many
things he could show us there, of which
we know nothing. How they navigate
the rivers of Minnesota, how they saw
the wood by machinery, how the wood
is moved in wagons, how houses are made
whole by the sawmills and shipped to
other points. He has seen twenty years
in the midst of all this, and could give
or thirty years in finance, to which he is
fresh. Allowance is made for his posting
himself IN frank way in the details of
| our business. The paths of finance are
so plain, and the rules so few, that man
of good sense can hardly make mis-
take"
"What is Mr.. Window going to do, in
your judment3" l asked
"Why, there is only one thing for him
to do. He has got to spend 5000, 900, 900
in July to take up the matured bonds
That is going to be help to the general
money market. He has got lot of four
per cent. bonds to sell, and he has large
amount of money in the treasury, with
monthly surplusage of receipts coming
in. He can buy those bonds very easily
with what he has got; and although his
treasury will be comparatively reduced
the surplus coming in every month will
soon fill it up again."
asked if the secretary could not foat
any 8 per cent. bonds On the present mar.
ket To this the banker answered by
taking up book of tables of interest &C.
curately calculated, and he showed mt
that at the present rates of the per cent
bond lower bond correspondingly rated
would leave no margin for the banker t.
sell it, compared to reigning rates of in
terest on loans "There is a good dea
of noise over the country" said thi
gentleman, "about Wall street shavins
these bonds. Now, you can see by thi
table that there is no money in them a
all for u.s."

An Increase for the First Quarter, and
Also for the Week, as Compared with
Corresponding Periods Last Year.
New YORK, April S.-Bradstrcet's pub
fishes summary ofthe failures in the Unit
ed States and Canada for the first quarter
ofthe current year, compared with those of
the corresponding periods of 1880 and 1870
The total number of mercantile failures prop
er, in the United States in the first quarter of
1881, is 1884, against 1894 for the correspond
ing period in 1880, and $3.50 for 1879. The
increase last quarter is accounted for
by the peculiar and somewhat abnormal
condition of the West and South, and
in part by ill-judged ventures during the period
of general activity, and this, while the general
condition of trade Is exceptionally sound. The
failures reported the past week throughout
the United States and Canada is 1913, an in.
crease over the preceding week of IL. The in
crease Is entirely in the Western States, where
there has been 40, as against 90, Michigan
and California showing the greatest number.
| There has been decrease of 4 in the Southern
States, in the New England, 9 in the Middle
States, and Is in Canada and the provinces.

Beyond this nothing official can be learned.

AT YANKTON.
special to the Journal from Yankton says
the damage to steamboats,, railroads and pri-

been fearful. Steamers at the levee were car
ried inland and now lie on the railroad track.
The steamer Peninah struck the railroad ma
chine shops and is completely wrecked. The
boat is now on the prairie about
mile from the channel. The government
warehouses are destroyed and many of the
goods stored in them carried away. Rescuing
parties report great suffering and destitution
among settlers on the bottom lands between
Yankton and Vermillion. A number
of houses at Yanktou were moved
from their foundations and some carried off.

AT COUNCIL BLUFFS.
COUNCIL BLUFFS, April s.--The unprece
dented rise of the Missouri river, at this point
has resulted in the overflow of the lower par
OF the city, and many persons are compelled
to vacate their houses here tonight. The bot
tom land, between this city and tn
river proper, one mile dis
tant, is inundated, forming
mighty lake. The Union Pacific railroad wa
compelled to load down their small bridge
over a small stream in the city limits and to
tracks and is flowing in the vicinity of tn
large Union depot. The rive
is nearly twenty-five feet above low waite
mark, being several feet highe
than ever known here and still rising. Som
fears are entertained the current may succee
in forcing passage way through the low
lands of the city mile or two this side of thu
large iron bridge between this city and Omah

probable.

1t is said to day, with some show of truth,
that the Republicans may, sometime next
week, go into executive session for confirm
ing the most important nominations, if
enough Democrats vote with them to do this
promptly, but should an attempt be made in
executive session to select certain men for
confirmation, the Democrats would probably
resist and insist on taking up the nominations
in proper order. The Republicans would be
glad to confirm the most important nomina-
tions if they could do that and resume their
fight, but if they go INTO executive session on
time they know it gives the Democrats the
advantage.
