Pennsylvania bank Affairs.


PITTsBURG, May 27.-The affairs
of the Pennsylvania bank confines to
be the %engr0ssing subject among all
classes, but up to now there is as lit.
tie definitely known as at the time of
closing yesterday.
President Riddle slept fairly well
last night and this morning was suf-
6ciently recovered as to enaole
friends to remove him to the resi-
dence of D A. Stewart, East End.

of the books last night. Every or
portunity was given them 10 make q
superficial examination. According
to their statement the books show
$780,, 600 drawn out from the time of
resumption, Friday, until the closing
yesterday, with deposits decreasing
correspoDdiugIy. The statement that
$500. WO in certified checks were not
included in the statement made to
the association of banks is incorrect-
u" such checks existing. In their
opinion, If the books are correct, the
oank ought to pay every cent of its
debts. There is less talk of crooked
ness, and the impression is glowing
that the second SUSPENSION was due
wholly to timidity and demoralIza-
ton when President Riddle was sud-
denly Frustrated. The directors have
not made q statement, but there is a
general demand for something au- |

pure and unsullied. The Grants
have banked upon their fathers
name, aud instead of going to work
on their own account. and endeavor-
ing to build up 4 reputation
and fortune of their own
upon their own merits, they
have tried to climb up owe the
shoulders of their father. They
should have been most solicitous to
their fathers great reputation. But
they have made it the sign-board Of
what appears a confidence game
General Grant had nothing to gain
and everything to lose when he en-
trusted his name to the keeping Of
his sons. If his reputation has been
sullied by the firms transactions, it
has been for the sake of his boys he
fhas made the terrible sacrifice"
The sympathies of the people are
freely extended to the General in
this d~eplorable affair. They hold
him guiltIess of criminal intent or
even a CRIMINAL thought. He COM
mitted the mistake of permitting bis
name to be used in a business OF
which he was totally ignorant and
about which he made no effort to in
form himself. This is the length and
breadth of the Generals off;erse. His
sons may have been made the dupas
of a designing man or men. But they
were active members of the firm, and
it must be assumed knew the exact
condition of its affairs, hence there is
a strong disposition upon the part OF
many to hold them equally accounta-
BILE with Ward and Fisk.
The same journal sums up the
matter in the following language:
If the Grants stood SO high in public
that their name could
draw millions of dollars into their
keeping, it is all the more disgrace
fal that they thought sc little of 1t
they allowed the family name
to be used for the purpose OF

could question either. The greed for =
wealth, easily acquired, has proven =
he stumbling block which has '
the name of the Grants into

his old age to feel the bitterness OF ]
and ruin. No plea of jg- t

the failure justly casts upon them. +

It is a mistake to assume that the
Democratic party favors a parsi.
monious policy in dealing with The
question of rehabilitating the navy,
What it does uncompromising]y
oppose, and their opposition is
shared by the people, is any project
whereby large sums of money may
be placed at the disposition of VIM.
E. Chandler or any other man whom
the present administration may
make Secretary of the Navy. There
are good reasons why no large sums
should be SO placed.
During the one hundred years
ended January l, 1884, there was
spent on the navy 81, 05s. $40, 42s.
Of this amount more than 500, OOO,-
700 were spent during the past
twenty-five years Of Republican
ascendancy. In other words, the
navy did not cost half as much from
1888 to 1861 as it has cost since the
latter year. If we have nothing to
show for u money but a few old
hulks, it is because the annual
preparations have been diverted
from the building and repairing OF
ships for the nation to the building
and repairing of private fortunes for
contractors and political br oms for !
statesmen. Here il the
and substance of the whole
grievance. To imagine the people
blame the Democracy for not
additional millions az the
staggering amount was wasted.

he healthfulness of public opinion.
t is a grand mistake to assume the
Democratic party is actuated by q
l'ggardly policy in withholding
xtravagant appropriations for the
lavy.

Adams and Gould.


Wall Street News: The formal alll.
ance of Mr.. Jay Gould and Mr.. Charles
Francis Adams, Jr., is one of those
strange sights which the whirligig of
time sometimes presents to wondering
world. The most telling exposure ever
made of the Erie rascalities was made by
the Massachusetts gentleman, who
gained great fame thereby. His pen
portrait of his present partner has passed
into literature as one of the best of it's
kind. They are working the racket"
together; and q famous remark of an
American statesman concerning the
union of the Puritan and the blackleg
is likely to be repeated to-day. We have
no doubt at all how this strange alliance
will turn out. It will leave Mir. Charles
Francis Adams, Jr., without shred of
reputation amoug decent men. Where
is the man whom Mr.. Gould has taken
into partnership, for the use to which he
puts Mr.. Adams, who ever proited by it
in the end? There is not one. When
Mr.. Gould has got through with Mr..
Adams he will throw him aside like a
sucked orange; and E. Adams will lie
where lie is thrown, Spectacle for pity
and contempt.
