assortment of fire type some of the most
elegant new STYLES made at tho -
american and English foundries. Some
of them equal the best steel and copper

Horner's Banking BiII-No. ~.


Mr.. EDITOR: In my last l referred t.
the interchangeable bond recon-
mended by Secretary Window for sup
plying and regulating the currency o.
the country. Almost the same kind Of
an interchangeable bond-as far as il
goes-that we have been advocating foi
seventeen years.
have stated above that "this bill
doubly provided for the Secretary's in
Interchangeable bond" We think the
claim correct, as this bill makes all
government bonds interchangeable. The
Secretary recommends only a part in
America, and our present banking law
permits only these bonds held by the
government to be interchangeable at our
bank for money. We believe,-and our
bill thus aims-that a government bond
held by citizen would be just as good a
security for money at the bank as a
government bond held by the govern
ment.
This bill also naakes All inprored ,eost
estate III both city and country inter
changeable at this bank for money in
the same way that our government now
borrows OF our present bank and de-
posts its bond to secure the repayment
of the money With this difference, no
SUN greater than fifty per cent of the
taxable value of real estate could be
loaned upon it under this bill.
We think the :" Interchangeable bond"
is thus amply provided for securing and
circulating all the currency any nation
may require.
Then, to prevent depreciation, should
money get too plenty, this bill permits
the holder to deposit il at the bank and
receive for it certificate OF deposit Gan
interchangeable bond ~, drawing an
interest and payable on demand in pub
lie money The same as deposits are
now made in our present bank, certifi-
Gates given and paid on demand. This,
We think, doubly provides for the " in
Interchangeable bond. :" There would,
however, be this difference: our present
bank is limited in the amount it can
receive on dep isit. Under this bill any
amount could be received from So up
wards. If it is right to deposit $4,000, it
should be right to deposit $4,000 or any
other sum the principle is the same,
the law only prevents.
And these bonds, or interchangeable
property, would not only supply any
amount of currency, but they would pre-
vent depreciation of the CURRENCY and
financial business disaster, which we
think otherwise impossible to prevent
For the money secured and circulated by
means of the aforementioned inter
changeable property, the Government
receives four cent. per annum interest
and for the deposit certificate it would
pay three and one half per cent. interest
This bill would meet out financia
equality to all holders of Government
bond, which are not done in the United
States, nor here, at present. As in th'
United States, the national bank owner:
are the only pets permitted to use thu
Government bond Interchangeable a
the treasury for money. Here, our Gov
eminent is the only party permitted t
use Government bonds interchangeable,
at the bank for money.
The injustice of such acts to othe
bondholders are apparent without argu
ment. JNo. NJ. HoRNER.

The real estate market just now IL
taking rest, but the prospects are
bright for a sudden activity IN real cs-
tate and building within a few weeks.
The transfers for this week amount 10
$So,l7o in city property. while the
amount last year, for the same week in
March amounted 10 $67 $50. Several
prominent real estate dealers gave their
opinion concerning the condition of
business, yesterday, az follows:
Nathaniel Rlc,-There must peces-
sarily be big b..om in real estate tns
coming season. Tne recent cxteas4-a
of the city limits has taken IN pr -
that must he plated and placed o.. saa
market. The owners of some OF TINS
land will be obliged 10 sell il, for taxes
will be necessarily increased. From the
outlook how, business IN this line viii
exceed that of last year by one-s.xth.
W. c. Sheppard-rhe presen; lull IN
real estate circles i think indicates
great activity shortly. There ls now a
great increase in the applications for
membership in building aud loan asso-
Cations. This, of course, means III az
tention TO build houses, and we may
expect to see n lrrge number Of new
residences built this spring.
Chas. Llyingston-Busine Is dull
Just now, but we expect 10 be pretty
busy when the weather becomes settled.
We have applications from outside
parties who have property TO exchange
for city property. This shows that
Grand Rapids prop"rt- 70 ''s'siored 10
be the right thing.
John Z. Dunton-1he prospect never
was better and we may expect big
boom IN real estate with big prices.
Why. we are so confident of this that
we have doubled our advertising con-
tract for the coming season. Property
that has been recently incorporated
INTO the CITY has risen from IS 10 Is per
cent. IN value. There is a great de-
mand for houses. We now have
for tenement houses.

tractors are expecting Il and are max

What a Reporter Saw and Thought

Wn0t a ISepOrtoT S0W anu AnOugut.
A telephone call brought a TELE-
GRAM HERALD reporter 10 the grand
apartments of VINEGAR & Wenzell. in
the new Kendall block, who stated that
the object of their calling him there
was for the purpose of having examined
the elaborate display OF goods bought
by them on their recent visit TO New
York, and from which they have just
returned.
The sight that met the view
of the reporter was one that
can only fifty be termed be
wilderng. Such an array of imported
diess goods and novelties have without
doubt never before been shown IN this
city, and must be seen to lie appreciated.
Such an array of imported trimmings
might well cause the hearts of the
lldles to tiutter with delight, and the
harmonious blending of colors and con-
trasts show an artistic skill far superior
to anything exhibited before now.
Dress goods from Paris, trimmings from
Berlin and Vienna, jewel trimmings
from France, and laces from Swltzer-
land and France. The grand opening
of VINEGAR e. Wenzell will lie held on
next Tuesday and WedpeSday, March
Il and Is.
A complete exhibition ef fine fur and
seal garments, made by Rasch & Reck-
mver. of Detroit. tor whom WneGar Il

FAST TIME ON THE RAILS
The 229 Miles Between New York and
Washington Made in $40 Minutes.

The 228 Miles Between New York and
Washington Made in $40 Minutes.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 2S.-The fastest time
ever made by railroad train between New
York and Washington was accomplished
to-day by special train over the Pennsyl-
vania railroad, rendered to party of hotel
proprietors, theatrical managers and news
paper representatives. The train was COM
posed of a Pullman combination, dining
car, parlor car and observation car. The
weight of the three cars aggregated 25O, 900
pounds, while the locomotive, which was
*" with six and half
feet driving wheels, weighed,
with its complement Of coal and water,
1853. 900 pounds. The train left New York
at 2:49 o'clock p. N. and stopped in the sta
ton in this city at o'clock p. m. Engines
were changed at Gray's Ferry, consuming
5minutes, and stop at Baltimore took up 6
minutes. Deducting the II minutes thus
lost the actual running time was hours,
240 minutes for 228 miles, the average run
ming time being 57imiles per hour.
THE BEST PREVIOUS RECORD.
The best previous record between the
two cities was made over this line on March
Is, 1890, when a special train conveying A.
NJ Palmer's AUNT Jack" company from
New York TO Washington in hours and Is.
minutes, or at an average rate Of 81 miles
an hour. Some very fast bursts Of speed
were made on various parts of the line,
reaching in many instances the extraordi-
nary rate Of IS miles per hour. From
New York TO New Brunswick. 81 miles, was
covered in 80 minutes. Trenton, So miles
from New York, was reached in So min.
utes, and Gray's Ferry, 81 miles, re-
quired only 6S minutes. The "a miles be-
tween Gray's Ferry and Wilmington were
made in "a minutes, and the SO miles
between Havre de Grace and Bay
View were run in as many minutes
This schedule, fast as it is, was run in the
face Of wind which is considered by
engineers great obstacle. A full, course
dinner was served in the dining car during
the run.
