TROUBLED FINANCE
WINDOW AND HARRISON SERIOUSLY
ALARMED
At the Monetary Stringency-Measures Of Relief
Under Consideration Payment Of Customs
Duties to bs Suspsndsd-The
President Takes Part.

New YORK, September 13.-Secretary
Window arrived at the sub-treasury at
IL 80 to-day, and notices were at once sent
out to number of bankers TO attend con-
ference and exchange views with him. A
number of prominent bankers attended.
The conference was in session for nearly
two hours. An evening paper says:
The question of putting the government
money on deposit in the National banks
was brought up at the conference. Secre-
tary Window reiterated the position of the
Government and emphatically declared
that such proceeding was impossible
The proposition was discussed OF buying
0,000, 900 of the four per cent. bonds at
l25, but it was the opinion OF some of
those present that comparatively few bonds
would be offered for redemption at that
price, as holders would demand higher
figure. In regard to the proposition of the
Government preparing years interest on
the S65, 100000 currency skies, bonds, Sec
retary Window stated that Congress
would have to authorize the payment of
this advance in interest.
SUSPEND CUSTOMS DUTIES.
A proposition which met with unanimous
approval Of those present, including the
Secretary of the Treasury, was 10 suspend
the payment of customs duties from No
vember to February ]. Secretary Win
dom said that the present difficulty in the
money market he believed TO be one that
extended all over the country, and was not
confined TO Wall street or even New York.
He said it would require a great deal of
consideration TO settle upon the best method
of relieving the stringency and for that
reason nothing would be done hastily. In
regard TO the scare which is based upon the
belief that a large amount of money, accord
ing TO many more than $50, 600, 900, will be re-
quired Immediately to pay duties 10 take
goods out of bond in case the Mckinley
bill goes into effect October / Assistant
Treasurer Robinson says IL might be
suggested in the first place that this amount
is over estimated, for the custom house au-
thorities have estimated that the amount of
duty payable on goods now in bond does
not amount to more than Sl0,000,0O0. In
the second place, if these goods are with
drawn in large amounts and thrown upon
the market it will have tendency TO check
imports so that the amounts of revenue re
ceived will be diminished At any rate it
should not increase the stringency.
PURCHASE MORE BONDS.
Secretary Window said that he would
probably take steps at once TO purchase
some government per cents, but how
many he would redeem he declined TO
state. He intends to remain in New York
for several days and take all necessary
steps to relieve the stringency in the
money market.

tiOn.

WASHINGTON, d. c., September 13-
There was long consultation to-day by
wire between the President at Cresson
and acting Secretary Bachelor and As
sistant Secretary Nettleton at the Treas
ury Department, concerning the stringency
in the money market, during which the
whole situation was thoroughly gone over.
The President, it is understood, stated
that it is his desire to avert "A panic in the
money market, and that none shall be per-
mitted to occur if the Treasury Depart
ment can prevent it. The views of the
President were telegraphed to Secretary
Window at New York, who at noon sent
the following message to the President:
Have had a conference with the leading
financiers There appears to be considera-
BILE stringency, but no reason to apprehend
serious consequences. l am fully advised
and will take such action as / think the
situation requires
The President has also been consulted by
Major Mckinley, the chairman Of the Com
mittee on Ways and Means, and others in
regard to the propriety of extending the
date fixed by the Senate for the new Tariff
bill to 60 into effect. The matter, it is un-
derstood, is to be the subject of further
conference

political circles to-day, by the Daily Com
mercidl appearing in a double-leaded edi-

Cannon in every campaign, but has yielded
to the wishes of the majority of its readers
and taken a stand against him.

break Cannon made in Congress had much
