THE HOUSE NOW RESPONSIBLE.

1t ought not to be, but probably Is the fact, that
the passage of the Cullom railway bill by the
Senate renders the success Of any measure of
the sort unlikely at &his session. For the
House, by large and persistent majorities, re-
peatedly voted down amendments embracing
the vital features of the Cullom bill, and is not
likely to substitute that bill for the one 10 has
already passed. Obviously it Is wiser and
better measure, but that is one Of the reasons.

this reserve of 10 per cent consisted of 2l.I

only $50, ,6s1. .577 10, and this is 1872 per cent
of the amount Of legal tender notes not belong
ing to the Treasury. Reckoning In the same
way upon the statement of January i. we find
that the Treasury then held free for the re
demption of outstanding legal tenders 1S.S per
cent of their amount in gold, 1915 per cont of
their amount in silver of all kinds, and Il per
cent In unavailable funds and minor currencyJ
In all, 3S.7 per cent of the notes outstanding.
Thus the Treasury has increased Its ratio OF
nominal reserve to notes during the month. but
the whole increase and more has been In silver,
while the ratio of gold held free of other
obligations for the redemption Of notes is
smaller than 1t was January l.
The Treasury has received from the banks

and is bound to pay in gold or its equivalent.

Notoriety is meat and drink, and almost

CITY, The conduct of Justus Schwab yester
day proves it once more. He demanded to be
tried in the large room in Essex Market Police
Court, evidently so that he could be amore con-

course the Judge conducted the trial where be

have accomplished more than years of civil
litigation would have done. Therein is hint

the country were exposed to great danger by the
continued operation of the Silver Coinage act.

urge the interests Of foreign Powers and foreign
traders. But now The Herald discovers that " the
country Is on tho verge OF great and omnous
economic upheaval." One does not quito know
what this means. but 1t must bo something dreadful.
An ominous upheaval must combine In itself all the
terrors of apprehended and realized disaster. But,

To The World, 1t seems evidence of the states

Washington. Madison and Jefferson. and seems TO
have no Other political views. The idea that tho
great men Of hundred years ago comprehended
all the subjects with which the President OF the
Republic will have to deal this year and next Is
worthy of Democratic organ. Mr. Cleveland has
doubtless read certain of the writings Of early Pres
idents and II is to be Hoped that he has not only
committed to memory few of the sayings which
have become household words for Americans. but
has absorbed In some measure the real spirit of the
early Presidents If so, he will deserve credit on
that account and lwllAbc to that extent the better
