CONRAD N. JORDAN,
TREASURER OF THE UNITED STATES, WHO
WRITES HIS NAME on THE Bills.

If the reader will take the trouble to
examines Treasury note from his pile"
he will find the Treasurers name at
the time OF its issue from Washington,
leYi3ly written on it. This duty of
gv.ag the whole country his signature
now tails on Conrad y. Jordan, one of
President Cleveland s appointees, whose
Office is highly responsible one, in
Guiding many onerous and grave duties.
Its incumbent is recompensed by the by
no means extravaganza salary of six
thousand dollars year for the perform
anco OF duties requiring an ability
gained by long experience and natural
adaptation.
part of the fifty-three years of his life has
been spent III banks or other financial
centres. He began at the foot of the
ladder in New York City, rising in his
first place, namely, the Hanover Bank,
to be general bookkeeper of that insti-
tuition. His next engagement was at
bank in l'ishkill. The Third National
Bank, New York, was started in 1864,
with Mr.. Jordan as cashier In 1880
Mr.. Jordan became Treasurer of the
New York, Ontario and Western Rail
road, which position he resigned in 1884.
After that time he worked hard on q
scheme, as yet unsuccessful, looking to
the establishment of a Clearing House,
with operations covering the whole
country He was busy with this
scheme when the President gave him
the appointment he now holds with
such credit.
Mr.. Jordan has exhibited great abil-
ity In finance. His ambition is so to
present the affairs of the Treasurer's
office to the public, that the average
citizen will apprehend them clearly,
and without difficulty.
The Treasurer is strongly built
man, active and energetic. His bearing
issomewhat brusque, and he is no waster
of words; bUt he talks well and interest
ingly, and people who know him best
like HIM the most.

CranherrieS.

The American Cranberry Growers As
ISOLATION estimates the crop eff 1886 at
100000 bushels against $50 600 bushels
estimated last year. The figures may be
exceeded. as the actual crop last year was
about 900,0 900 bushels. 1t is believed in
order to secure market, new channels
OF trade must be opened. Last year about
49, 600 bushels failed to find an outlet,
the enormous quantity OF 100000 bushels
being marketed only by great exertious
and at low prices. The English market
has proved unsatisfactory, because of a
lack of knowledge there of how to pre-
pare the cranberry. The market there last
fall seems TO have been glutted by only
1920 crates. Growers are called on to
cooperate not only to seek new channels
of consumption. but also to provide means
of introducing their fruit through tree
distribution of cooked samples in sections
where cranherries are as vet unknown.
