Piling Up the Debt

1t is little hard TO tell, owing to
the Levy Courts peculiar method OF
doing business, whether the floating
debt has been increased by borrowing
$1O. 600 or not. One thing, however.
is very certain, and that is, SIC, 900
was ordered to be borrowed by some
body and by some means il failed to
be recorded on the minutes of the
Levy Court OF June Bird. The ques
tion naturally arises whether the court
made any such order. We were
present during the proceedings and
heard no such order, and we saw no
report of such action In any of the
other papers represented at that ses.
sion. Above all, the clerk of the
Levy Court, Mr.. Osborne, generally
very careful and correct in keeping his
minutes, also failed to get the motion
70 borrow, hence the motion made by
Mr.. Wier on Tuesday last, to order en- :.
tered upon the minutes of June 3rd
the fact that 500 had been Dor /.
rowed. This seems like queer way
OF doing business, first to borrog the
money and then take action on it alter
wards.
But the real kernel of the nut ia
what right has the Levy Court to bor-
row money under the circumstances
and create a floating debt2 The law
positively foIbids it and good, sound
financiering iorbids it. The whole
floating debt OF the County. either
$S3, ,000 or $4,000, nobody knows
which, except those who negotiated
the unlawful loans, has been created
In utter defiance of law. There ia
nothing TO show whether the last bor-
Iowed $4,000 was Included in Mr.
Wier's wonderful financial statement
or not, and we have our doubts
whether Mr.. Wier knows himself.
II the Levy Court had any regard
for law, II would order a detailed
financial statement to be published
that the taxpayers can understand
The law requires that it shall be done,
but upon the simple plea that the lay
provides no penalty for not publishing
II. the Levy Court has persistently mo-
only refused TO publish the statement,
but gave to the public 8 miserable
mixed up garbled report that cannoj
bc understood even by the authors o.
II. 10 1t not high time these public
servants were taken In hand and made
10 sccount honestly for their ste ward
ahip2 What do the taxpayers OF Ne v
Cassls County say about III
Daily Republican., 1890-06-12

THE Baltimore s. Ohio Railroad
Company is to be commended for the
stand II has taken 10 insure property
and life from destruction through en-
ployes who drink intoxicating liquors,
but yet can hardly be called drunk OF
sober. In order to DO sure Of being
on the right and safe side the company
has issued . circular TO each of its EN-.
ployes. of which the following 10 an
extract:
"This company will NOT under anv
circumstances employ men who arc In
tile habit OF becoming intoxicated, All
employees known to frequent drinking
places must be warned to discontiuc the
practice Or to quit the company's SER
vice. Employees will be discharged II
intoxicated either on or cfi duty. No
person discharged for intoxication will
be re-employed."
This goes farther than any action
heretofore taken by the Baltimore tS
Ohio. or any other railroad. but it is
the right thing to do. The railroad
man who cannot and will not abstain
from the use OF intoxicating LIQUORS,
has nothing to do than to stop short
of or get out of the employ OF the.
company. This 10 the right kind of
IN order. and we hope the word EN-. |
>loyes takes In all the officials OF the
DAD, from president down TO lsborer. |
4 II does not the order will be worth
nothing. The doctrine of dollg as II
ell you,- and not as do" has bad its
ay and should be laid away among
be musty records OF the past.

A FINANCIAL WONDER.
Suspension Of the Philadelphia Firm
Of Barker Bros.
THE RECENT PARIS TRAGEDY.
New York Stocks Steady and the
Worst in London Over.
IRISH PRESS COMMENTS ON PARNeuL.
WHARTON BARKER FAILS.
A Great FURRY Caused on the Phila-
delphia Stock Exchange.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Nov. 20-A great furry
was caused in the stock exchange about noon
today when it became known that the large
and well-known banking house of Barker
Brothers Co. had made an assignment.
As soon as the announcement was made there
was general fall in stocks. Vice President
Bachman of the exchange, when asked about
the suspension said: "All know about il is
that we received q note from the Barkers
stating that they would be compelled to
make an assignment / do not know any,
thing about their assets or liabilities. In fact,
do not even know the name Of the assignee.
Stocks fell. but it will not make much differ
ence in the stock market as they have not been
dealing in stocks to any extent They have
been interested in outside speculation, | sup
pose and to this probably is due their assign
ment"
Inquiry at the Office Of Barker Brothers Il
Co. this afternoon failed to elicit any iuforma-
tion further than they had made an assignment,
and that, perhaps, some statement would be
made later in the day.
The firm consists of Wharton Barker. Abram
Barker and Joseph Wharton. Mr.. Wharton
Barker is president of the finance company.
The firm also controls the Wharton Switch
Company and gained a worldwide reputation
some time ago by its Chinese intertelegraph-
ing banking scheme. They are also the Phila-
delphia correspondents of the BarIngs, the
great London bankers who were in difficulty
recently.

THE FINANCIAL SITUATION.
Treasury Officials Watching Carefully
the MOvcmnnfs Of fha Market

Treasury Officials Watching Carefully
the Movements of the Market.
Secretary Window and his official family in
the Treasury Department are keeping an
acute observation upon the financial situation
during these days Of nervousness and anxiety,
but there is really little that can be
done beyond the purchase Of ~ per cent
bonds, which will be continued for the pres
ent As yet no definite proposition has been
received to buy per cents and give fracti onal
silver in payment, which has been suggested
in New York as q means Of relief, but inasmuch
as the purchase of 4 per cents offers the
only new outlet for money to the market it is
likely that such an offer from the bankers
would be regarded with favor
One effect of such purchases would be to in
crease the nominal surplus, since the fractional
silver coin in the treasury, amounting to over
$l9,0 900, is not counted part of the funds
available for the reduction of the public debt.
The surplus just now is about S11. 100000
In pursuing the policy of freeing as much
money possible the Secretary has already
caused the purchase of 4.500OO0 ounces of sill
yer during November. this being the quota for
the entire month. This WILL of course, neces-
state a halt in the silver operations for few
days, but the purchases will be resumed De-
cember l.

1T REMAINS A MYSTERY.
The Motive for Killing Gen. Solver.
skoT Cuexplaiped

ehoh SutAptained
PARIS. Nov. 20.-The niece OF Gen. Solver
skof. who WAS found Tuesday with a bullet
wound in his head in the Hotel Bade. and who
died yesterday. has arrived here for the
purpose Of arranging the details of
her uncle's funeral At the request
Of the Russian embassy no autopsy
will be held. The government has closed NJ.
BernhOfs Franco-liussian rooms on Rue
Eoyale. where Podlcsky. the Russian Pole who
Is suspected OF the murder. was employed prior
to his disappearance, and Is acting IN an ener-
getic manner against the nihllists who resided
in Paris.
lie NotiH says the police believe that the
killing OF Gen Sellyerskof was an act OF pri-
vate vengeance. Podlesky. the paper saws,
was the lover Of girl who had been enticed
by woman, at the instance OF Gen. Solver
skoh, into house OF lil-fame, and this. it ID
claimed, was the motive for the crime. A
haiscn existed between the woman who in
duced the girl TO visit the house and Gen.
Seliyerskof.
Nibihsts here affirm that the general al She
time of his death was director of the Russian
police IN France and that he played an impor-
tant part In the recent arrests Of nihilists n
Paris.
The newspapers recall the fact that servant
of Gen. Sehyerskoff named Muller was assassi-
mated In Paris IN 1865. and that the murderer
was never found. Since that time the general
received a number of letters threatening him
with death.
Later.--It has been learned that the name Of
the Russian Pole who is suspected Of the mur-
der Of Gen. Seliverskoff Is Padlewsky, not
Podlesky, as formerly given. person re-
sembling Padlewsky crossed the Belgian from
tier on Tuesday night
The Ectdr says that nihilist committee de-
cided that IL Sophia Gansbury. who Was ar
rested at St Petersburg for having bombs in
her possession. was sentenced to death Gen.
SelverskofT would be killed as soon thereafter
as possible. The woman was sentenced to be
hanged last Monday and the shooting Of the
general occurred tile day after.
