In common with other would-be educa-

he may believe that this precept Is "more

wREToHED STATE OF AFFAIRS
Horrible Scenes Witnessed in Chile
Owing TO Famine

LONDON, May 5-Buenos Ayres advices
represent the condition Of affairs in Chile
as most wretched. Horrible scenes are
to be witnessed everywhere, owing to
scarcity Of food, consequent upon the
neglect Of agriculture and great devasta-
tion caused by the war.
In Santiago the greatest outraRes are
reported, no mercy being shown by
Balmaceda's agents TO those suspected OF
opposing him. Women OF the highest
families have been seized in the streets,
thrown into prison and subjected to vile
outrages.
In Valparaiso bread has reached three
times the usual price and a multitude OF
unemployed workingmen wander manac-
ingly through the streets. Continual
arrests are being made Of persons sus-
pected Of favoring the revolution, and
their doom is at once settled without
trial or hearing by order Of Balmaceda.
Numbers have been shot, simply on the
presidents order, based on a briefly
telegraphed report OF charges against
them.

WASHINGTON, May 5-Judge Dolph, of
Portland, Ore, brother OF Senator Dolph,

good many bankers and business men
having commercial relations with New
Orleans, there is, however, a sentiment
of doubt regarding the eXpediency OF
such a demonstration. Some Of them
are inclined to hold that New Workers
can very well afford to take care Of their
own affairs. They say that were the
people OF New Orleans to hold a meeting
for the purpose of denouncing Tammany
the action would be resented AS an i'm
pertinence, and that, although the lottery
is more or less of national affair, yet
the question of its existence or suppress
sion is one entirely for the legislature Of
Louisiana to determine.

New ORLEANS, Nov. 12.-The feature OF
this mornings session Of the annual con-
vention of the American Bankers assoc
citation, was the reading of an important
paper by Hon. William G. CornNell, Of
the Bank of Buffalo, upon Canadian
bank currency" He said, among other
things: "This country is partially at sea
on the currency question. We are pound
ing along like great ship on the ocean,
with the engines al the utmost, politics
at the wheel, ignorant of our bearings,
and liable at any moment to collision and
disaster for, what with an unplIable, in
elastic circulating medium, much OF it
base in value and ground out mechani-
cally and without scientific control, at the
rate of four and half millions per month,
no one can say what the outcome Will be.
"Let US turn to our calm frien Dis, the
Canadians, and see how the test OF elias
ITCHY is met by their issues. The scien
tific basis of elasticity, is this: There
must be some inducement or force for
issue which will operate when trade re-
quires the bank notes, and ceasing to
operate when the trade requirement
ceases, will extingulsh the notes. In the
Canadian system the inducing force is
the profit on. notes issued, and the eXtin-
gushing power is the desire of each bank
to float its own issues. All the require
ments of the community in which it exists
and hourishes, is met by the Canadian
bank and note system, and, naturally,
you ask me whether advocate the adop-
ton of this system in the United States.
| have simply to say in reply that am
not here to advocate any system. Every
thinking banker, who has paid any atten-
ton to the subject, knows that our pres
ent system Of currency is inadequate, and
our condition in this regard very unsatis
factory, uncomfortable, and | think
may say dangerous. | believe it to be
time for reconstruction not by politicians,
but by the most skilled economic wisdom
which we can call to our aid. In such a
time, deliberate consideration OF the
better systems in operation should do
some good, and one of the best in the
world is in successful operation very near
us, under conditions very nearly resem-
bling our own, its arteries stretching over
vast country and carrying the life blood
of commerce to hamlet and town and
metropolis, building up worthy enter
prises, and furthering and sustaining a
healthy prosperity among the sturdy
people of our sister nation, Canada"
