Their Wall Goes Wrong.

Mr. EDITOR: We do not like to com
plain but "a the SEHTINI.L has failed to
reach this Office on time recently, We
would like very much to know what is
the cause, who is to blame. Won't you
please figure it out for us and send the re-
suit. II.
Maytield, s. g., Feb. Sd, 81.
We can inform II. that the reason his
paper failed to get to the Office, was that
the package went the rounds of the
mail route in the pouch, but was not
taken out and came back to the office
here. Postmasters should be sure to
shake all the mail out of the pouch.
Everyone who fails to get their paper
will please notify us.

An Unsatisfactory Explanation.

Although the reason given by Controller
Of the Currency Lacey for his failure to
close the keystone Bank of Philadelphia
when he was informed that the capital Of
the bank was impaired appears to be a
good one it is not accepted as satisfactory.
Recently the attorney for Bardsley, the de-
faulting ex-city treasurer, asserted that
Postmaster General Wansmaker could
make some interesting disclosures relative
to the causes which led to the ruin of the
bank, and this assertion has given
rise to suspicion that the Postmaster Cen
eral had sufficient influence at Washington
TO prevent the appointment of a receiver
for the bank until three months after the
controller of the currency had been in
formed of the banks rotten condition. And
it is asserted that the Postmaster General
was granted favors by the bank which
were not only unusual but contrary
to the law. He was loaned
money on his personal notes
and his paper was discounted for as much
as 300. 600 more than the law permits. 1t
is further stated that while the public was
left wholly in the dark as to the banks con-
dition. and the deposits of unsuspectiug
persons were received just as If the bank
was solvent, Mr.. Wansmaker drew out ali
the money he had in the institution and
thus was saved from loss.
1t may be that none Of the statements
connecting Mr.. Wanamaker with the bank
have any foundation in truth, but If they
have not the fact ought to be made clear.
At present there is a suspicion that Mr..
Wanamaker had more TO do with the af-
fairs of the wrecked bank than has been
made public, and this suspicion reflects in
juriously upon the administration.
What the public wants is the whole truth
about the matter. The longer full ex-
PLANTATION is delayed the stronger will the
impression become that the banking bureau
of the treasury and the department Of jus
tice were prevented by some mysterious in
fuence from putting the bank into the
hands Of a receiver several months before
they did Had a receiver been appointed in
January hundreds of depositors would have
been saved from loss.
1t would be unjust, of course, upon
unsupported charges to hold Mr..
Wanamaker responsible in any degree for
the misfortune of the depositors, but ii is
but fair, since charges have been indirectly
made against him, that he should come for
ward and make a full and frank statement
of his relations with the bank. Neither he
nor the administration can afford to rest
under the suspicion which has been created
by the statement of ex-Treasurer Bardsley's
counsel.

DR., Brooks Endorsed.

There does not seem to be much, If any.
reason to doubt that DIR. Phillips Brooks
will be bishop of Massachusetts. The stand
ing committees of a majority of the dioceses
have Endorsed him. and, as these committees
contain representative clergymen and lay
men, it is hardly to be supposed that the
house of bishops will nullify their action.
And there is no tangible ground upon
which the bishops can refuse their assent to
Dr. Brooks election. About all the charges
which have been brought against him since
his election have been shown to be I'M
founded, with the exception of that relating
to apostolic succession. He accepts the
doctrine of the historic episcopate," but
high churchmen cannot vote against him.
on that account, because the high church
view of the apostolic succession is not con-
sidered by the church to be Of vital iu-
portance.
There is desire in the Episcopal church
to unite all christian organizations in one
grand universal church. and nothing would
do more to further this object than the
confirmation of the election of DR.. Brooks
His confirmation would be an indication Of
a Wiling neSs W OpeH Ihe way loT NurlsUlan
organizations to get nearer together. And
what man in all the world is so well quail
fed as DIR. Brooks to help bring them to-
gethera When he speaks men stop to listen,
and his words are like seeds sown in rich
soil. They spring up and bear fruit.
The bishops would make great mistake
if they should reject DR.. Brooks. His re-
lection by them would be virtually an an
nouncement of purpose to bring about
separation of high churchmen from broad
churchmen.

Kansas City is having light tournament
with that rutatively religious freak known
to bad repute in Illinois for years by the
very appropriate name of Schweinfurth. At
Rockford he had long held forth as Christ
and devoted himself and his peculiar style of
creed chiefly to ensnaring rich women, who
were induced to live with him and donate
their fortunes to ''the cause" But in ir-
reverent Kansas City the mobs pelted his
"angels" with the most ordinary missiles,
aud actually had the audacity to kick the
alleged teacher of revelations on the shins
until he yelled in human fashion. These
westerners are real bad people.
