ment, and the added uncertainty as TO deniallu5 :
from Boston had more effect than IL WOulu
have had under other circumstances.
The Treasury has now offered for two weeks 10
take uncalled three and half per cent bonds
at par and interest, and has received oniy
Si1, 900. Of the bonds embraced IN the
1O5th call, only $10,135,9OO had been
received at the close of business on
Saturday, and only $2SS,95 during last
week. Although there remain $9,S64, 100 OF
these~called bonds still outstanding on which
interest will cease December 24, the holders
do not seem to be of the class that consents to
lend money in the Street because rates are high,
and it is very likely that Secretary Folger
might find the same difficulty, If he
should issue another call, as to most
of the bonds covered thereby. Holders strictly
for investment, and especially banks having
bonds on deposit for circulation, do not care
to disturb n sure security that yields 3l2 per
cent. when the course of the money market
leads them to suppose that other securities
may be purchased at lower prices before a
call will mature. Hence, so long as he relies
upon calls of bonds or purchases at a fixed
price. Secretary Folyer may be disappointed
in ms Efforts. however, he mas no reason aJ
this time to be anxious about immediate pur-
chases, because the Treasury has Withdrawn

4 SENSIBLE SUGGESTION

General Sherman is right in saying that the
81 ,OOO, 900 appropriated for the Signal Service
ought not to be saddlcd upon the Army as a
part of the annual cost of the military estab-
lishment The Signal Corps is an institution
for the benefit Of farmers sailors and others
concerned in knowing what the weather Il GO
ing to be. 1t is a purely scientific organization
of great practical value to large classes Of citi-
zens, and of daily interest TO everyone who
reads The newspapers, but it has no proper
connection with forts posts, soldiers and
weapons True, 1t has grown ont OF little
military bureau which during the war had
charge Of field tclegraphs and Of signalling by
flags; but the question may now fairly be asked
whether it should not be cut loose from the
Army and put upon purely civil basis.
The Signal Corps is not the only branch of
administrative work which is anonymously
connected. The Life-Saving Service, for ex-
ample is attached to the Treasury Department,
yet it has nothing to do with collecting the
revenue or honoring Congressional appropria-
TONS The Bureau Of Statistics is another
Treasury annex which is equally out OF place,
and the Lighthouse Board is still another.
The Coast Survey is fastened by very thin
ligamcnt to the same Department. The Agri-
cultural Department offers the curious anomaly
of an important branch Of administrative SER
vice which has no relations with the Executive
through the medium Of Il Cabinet Minister. 1t
resembles a wheel running upon a shaft of
its own, and not gcarcd into the rest of the
Government machine. The Census Bureau is
not, rs might be supposed, the decennial ex-
pan-ion of the Bureau OF Statistics, but "A sepa-
rate concern hitched to another Department
that of the Interior. 1t is reSUsctated by special
legislation once in ten years, and allowed to
die when it has done its periodical work.
The suggestion has more than once been
made that these unattached or semi-attached
branches of the public service might apDropri-
atcly bo grouped together into a Department OF
Industry and Statistics, with a representative
in the Cabinet. Perhaps the plan is not feast
ble one, but it appears to be worth discussing
There is not likely to hc much contention IN
Congress during the approaching session over
the principles upon which the Government
should Toe conducted and the time would seem
to bc favorable for am examination Of the wora-
ings and relations of the different parts of the
machine of administration. Possibly some ad-
yautagcous Establishments might be made. We
commend the subject 10 such Congressman as
have taste for something besides making
stump speeches and getting them printed in

R1NKS ND RINLNESS

Business during the past week has been
much disturbed by the disclosure or apprchcn-
sion Of unsOundncss in banks. The Trades
mems Bank of this city was assalcd by rumor
early in the week, but was quickly pro-
nounced entirely solvent after an examination
by committee of the Clearing House. Never
thelcss rumors of forthcoming disaster contin-
ucd, and a run on the Newark SAVINGS Bank
kept apprehension alive. On Friday the Pa
cifc National Bank of Boston, a comparatively
unimpOrtant concern with highly speculative
reputation, closed its doors, and the Central
National of the same city, having rcdiscountcd
largely for the Pacific, was distrustcd
on Saturday, and suspended payment for a
few hours. These events, though in themselves
unimpoItant, have added fuel TO the flame Of
distrust which the Newark failure kindlcd.
The strong and well managed banks feel that
it is unjust to think of them with suspicion be
cause two or three banks have stopped
payment. But the popular impression is that
there may be other banks, now consid-
cred safe, which have become cntanglcd
in speculation, and that absolute con-
lidence in reputable directors and official cx-
amnations does not seem to be justified by
recent events. Il is feared by some, too. that
the unexpected demands upon the Boston
banks may cause a considerable withdrawal of
money from this city, though kilograms from
that point represent that the disturbance is
over.
The money market became close on Friday
and Saturday, not merely because of these ap-
prehensions, but because it happened that the
Treasury was taking some money from the
banks. Up to Wednesday night the market
had not been much affected, although it had
not received expected aid by the operations of
the Treasury. From Wednesday the 9th to
Wednesday the 10th the Treasury increased
its balances $j,O0O,294. of which 81, 600. 900
was received from the Mint; but while
it took from the banks $1,000, 900, their
statement of Saturday shows that they
lost only $416,200 on the weeks aver
ages, 50 that they appear to have received
some money from other cities. After Wednes-
day, however, the Treasury drew about
81, 100000 more from the banks before busi-
ness closed on Saturday. This drain, coming in
place of the reinforcement which many had
expected from the sale of bonds on Wednesday.
may naturally have caused some disappoint-

Premier Gambetta's declaration Of principles
NAV be hastily assumed in some quarters to be
an offer of Cancellation to the clergy. There
may be 10 direct assurances of peace, but there
is an absence of menace. The fact that so ag
gressive a politician and so invetcrate an enemy
of Clercalism does not openly threaten war
may lure his opponents into the dclusion that
he promises peace. That he should content
himself with advocating a strict enforcement
of the Concordat at time when the Extreme
Left are clamoring for a remuneration of its
principles and for the conversion of the eccle-
siastical revenues into worlingmen's pensions
and insurance funds, may be considered by
country cures as conclusive proof that he has
gone as far as he dares, and that he stands
ready to meet the Clercals half way, if they
on their part bring forth works meet for repent
ance and stop preaching and intriguing against
the Republic. The assumption would be ten

depend largely upon how many were left in
the party after slammIng the doors of the
Capitol against the lobby and sending the job
bcrs to the rear. There are those who believe
that the process OF sammng and sending to
the rear would leave the party with too small
a nucleus for even Iorlom hope. Other
suggestions of the Syracuse newspaper to the
same purpose are that few laws be passed
which is always sensible advice-and that
the session be cut short, which it thinks
"would be the best capital the party
could trade upon in the next Gubcrnatorial
election" Undoubtedly. And yet the very
ingenuousness of this statement suggests a rca
son why, after all, the slamming the doors on
thc lobby, sending jo5bcrs to the rear, passing
but few laws, and making short session of
it. might not embed the party deep in the
confidence of the people, Even if the pur-
pose had not been so frankly stated there
would have been strong suspicion born OF
experience, in the popular MIND that the sole
object of these manGuvreS was to gain "capi-
tan to "trade upon the next Gubcmatonal
election" That suspicion would impede the
imbcdding.
