Senator Lamar's Observation-Disclosures

A good story about Senator Lamar
has leaked out lately. As is well known,
the Senator is in day dream half his
time. He is the most courteous OF men,
but when he is wool-gathering he walks
along, saluting his best friends with a
stony stare, and answering questions at
random. One day, some time ago, as
Mr.. Ellis, of Louisiana, was sitting in
his committee room at the Capitol, Mr..
Lamar walked in. He approached Mr..
Ellis, and, seating himself, said in his
grave and gentle way: =,
'.Ellis, don't believe you like me. "
"No," said Mr. Ellis, II don't"
"Why not?" said Mr.. Lamar.
"Well," said Mr.. Ellis, 'when [ first
came here you led me to believe you
were my friend. You seemed to take
an interest in me as new member, and
felt honored by your regard Lately
you have hardly spoken to me. lpass
you and you don't look at me, and such
conduct has offended me. | dislike you
very much"
''But, Ellis said the Senator, 'you
know it's my way"
. 81 don't care" said Mr.. Ellis. ats
a - bad way"
"My dear fellow" said Mr.. Lamar,
throwing his arms around MIR. Ellis
neck, ''the next time you see me in that
- bad way just come up and punch
me in the ribs. Now promise me and
let's be friends.
Mr.. Ellis promised him, and they are
friends.

The State of Trade.

NEW YORK, Sept. 1.-THE condition Of
general trade, as reported to Bradstreet's by
special kilograms, is quite as favor
able as that mentioned at any pre-
vious date within seven weeks past. The
steadiness and strength manifested by
the demand for dry goods and for
wooden fabrics have encouraged many
dealers at eastern distributing centers
to look for steadiness in the movement. 1t
may be added that the gain in the demand
for g-iron tsnds in some degree to inspire
the confidence manifested in various quar-.
tiers that the turn in the tide has at last
taken place, and that the increase in
the consumption of staple commodities
may preserve steady growth. 1t is
welcome sign that no boom is
discernible in any direction. The in
creased distribution of goods is formed of a
larger number o moderate sized orders and
in many instances of unexpected duplicate
demands. The American pig-iron market
Is firm. Sales at New York average about
5000 tons daily. With a continuation of
this business a moderate advance is likely.
All the small railroads are at
work, and 500 to $50 is freely quoted.
Bar iron is in much better request
and the iron trade as a whole feels the in.
fuence. Eastern agents and jobbers of dry
goods continue to do q fair business, but as
retailers are fairly well stocked up sales are
not as large as they have been. Additional
brands of brown and bleached cottons have
been advanced in price. There has been no
special change in the wool market Manu-
features buy with reserve, as holders are
stiff in their views and goods have not ap-
preciated in price to correspond with the
gain in the raw material The demand for
woolsn goods is rather better than other
wise Boots and shoes are in much better
request, but prices are low. The feat
ures of the general situation are how
ever, not uniform. Anthracite coal,
and wheat, and Indian corn, and flour are
all suffering from extremely depressed
prices and slack demand. Provisions and
hog products are dull and steady. Grocery
staples continue to move slowly, sugar be.
ing active and higher. Dairy products ari
in slow demand.

NEW YORK BANKERS
ARE IN A 0uANDARY FOR WANT OF
SILVER CERTIFICATES.
The Supply OF Legal-Tender Notes Has
Decreased 80, 900, 900 in Two Weeks
Bradstreet's Report of the
State of Trade.

NEW YORK. Sept 14-An important
phase Of Treasurer Jordan's efforts to circu-
late standard silver dollars and subsidiary
coin has been developed. 1t was learned
Friday that the supply of legal tender notes
held by banks in this city has been de-
creased in the last two weeks nearly So, 000,-
0O0. This extraordinary decrease has oc-
casioned much comment among presidents
Of banks represented IN the Clear
ing House association. The comment Is not
adorable to Treasurer Jordan's construc-
tion of the clause in the silver bill providing
for the issue of silver certificates deposited
in lieu Of standard silver dollars. A bank
president said Friday night that Mr.. Jor-
dams construction of the clause, while I'm :
doubtedly within the law, was neverths-
less decidedly too rigid at this season Of
the year, when the cotton and other crops
have to he moved by money supplied by
New York banks
1.-THE big banks in this city," continued
the bank president, "are now sending south
every week anywhere from $25O,000 to
$500, 900 apiece in S. $40, $50, and $50 bills.
We are compelled to do it because we
haven't the silver dollars to deposit with the
Sub-treasury in order to get silver certif-
Gates We will not handle the silver dol
lars. We will not even take advantage
Of the law which gives us the right to
make them part of our own reserve. Last
year Gen. SpinnerS construction Of the
clause gave us So, 900, 900 in silver csrtif-
Gates in lieu of deposits of gold. OF course
that was an evasion of the law, but it tided
us over and assisted southern merchants,
aud every thing was serene. Now we haven't
any silver certificates, our supply Of small
bills is daily growing less, and II some
thing isn't done We will have to fall
back on our gold supply. OF course,
we could send them silver dollars,
but the southern merchants will
not stand the expense OF handling the
silver Why, l know of bank presidents
cha ing around in cabs securing the city for
small bills for southern customers. The
sub treasury cannot supply US and we are
in " pretty fix, all because Of Treasurer
JorLan's Interpretation Of the clause relat-
in, TO the issue OF silver certificates"
l. i declared that movement Is on foot
by hich tie effect of Mr.. Jordan's order
will % annulIe,l. Certain bank presidents
suggest that it would be possible to deposit
goll with the sub treasury, receive in turn
standard silver dollars, and the next day re-
turn the silver dollars and get silver certiti-
Gates The gold would remain there, the
silver certificates would return in time, and
the force of Mr.. Jordan's construction
would be broken.
