THE WEEKLY BANK STATEMENT.
Wall Street Men Complaining About
It's Misrepresentation

Its MISREPRESENTATION
New YoRx, Jan. Il.--The Herald this
morning. prints the following: Stock ex-
change operators have been in the habit
OF swearing by the weekly bank state
ments Indeed, on Saturday, the stock
market is sometimes entirely influenced
by the supposed favorable or unfavorable
nature OF this report. The disclosure Of
the Fourth National Irregularities was n
rude shock to the street, and at once raised
the questions, Can the bank statement
ever be depended upon to tell the truth2'
"If one bank can systematically monkey
with the figures and misstate its condition,
don't other banks do the same?" at is
one Of the severest shocks we have had in
years. said veteran Wall street man.
"The bank statement has always been
looked upon every week as gospel, and
now We find that it is not the gospel, but
an apocryphal book. There is no doubt
means, the only bank president who has
misrepresented the condition OF his bank.
He was discovered only by accident, and
tne cliulce ulat went ugalnst MN, aiter
he had carried on the thing for some time,
happened to so in favor OF other bank
officers who have done the same thing.
The fact that came out yesterday that It
has been known 10 Wall street brokers for
q month and more that Baldwin was
monkeying with the figures, is in itself
pretty good evidence that other banks
have been doing it, or at least conniving at
il. Mr.. Baldwin is good fellow, and he
meant no harm, but he violated the law.
The worst consequence Of his act is that
he has destroyed public confidence in the
integrity OF the bank statements. He has
added an element OF distrust which will
be far reaching and will never be for
gotten"
And this was about what everybody in
Wall street said except the bank officers.

to set aside Mt. Hood as a National
Park, asking him to secure thenames

Governor PennOyer, Treasurer
Webb, and John G. Wright, presi-
