BETTER CARE OF BANKS.

The recent discovery of a defalcatlon
of over 100000 by President Hill, OF the
Ninth National Bank of New York, re-
calls similar robberles by trusted Off
Gals and suggests a line OF thought for
the student of the times. The president
Of this bank was, until the time OF his
death, regarded as a man of strict in
tegrity as we'll as a tinancier OF the high
est standing. Among the anker OF
New York city he ranked among the
best and was for years a most trusted
official. The bank was visited regularly
by the examiner and the accounts were
found correct. During his long ana
close connection with the institution the
slightest suspicion of wrong doing never
clouded his name nor was there ever a
rumor concerning the integrity OF the
bank. Yet at his death when the ac-
counts we're examined, as they should
have been before. it was found that he
had plundered the bank from time to
time through a long period OF years.
The bank examiner explains that he al
ways found sufficient collateral, which
it is now known was furnished by placing
securities which were held in charge by
the president. The more general eN-
PLANTATION is that the affairs of the bank
we're placed almost wholly under the
presidents direction. This suggests the
fact that there is really no. limit to the
ease with which depositors may be
robbed by the authority in charge
of a one man bank. There are direct
ors and officers, of course, but
they are too often dummies to be
twisted at will about the fingers of a
shrewd rascal who controls affairs by
sheer force of superior intellect, aided
by a fair degree OF plausibility. The
average director of a bank is too igno-
rant of banking methods or too careless
in his duties. How many cases may be
recalled where banks of the highest
standing in the most carefully guarded
centres Of finance have been robbed to
destruction by the deliberate rascality
of the president? The banking laws in
New York state are supposed to be all
that legislation can devise for the safety
OF depositors, and yet it apparently is
an easy matter for a bank examiner to
be deceived in the accounts of some OF
the soundest institutions.
The only safe check is to divide the
responsibility in the management OF a
national banking institution. The
patrons place first confidence in the
directors, who are primarily responsible
ity for the integrity of the bank. They
cannot testify to the honesty of the
officers, but they can place it beyond
the power of one man to steal hundreds
of thousands through a long series OF
years. No public institution so nearly
touches the popular interest as a bank
in which the savings of depositors are
placed, and certainly no corporation
should be more closely watched.

THE rumor that Col. John L. Sullivan
will abandon his chosen profession Of
pugilism and run for congress gives
added interest to a recent interview on
political subjects. In discussing pros
pective candidates this eminent student
of pugilism and politics observed:
sBlaine can't be beat for the republican
nomination. His treatment Of them
dagos has made him lots of friends.
Them people hadn't ought to be allowed
in this country. AS for Cleveland, you
can't beat him. That fellow Hill
wouldn't stand before him two rounds
OF course Cleveland is a little bit off
color just now on that silver business
but he's the people"
Without wholly indorsing the senti,
ments of Col. Sullivan, we cannot
refrain from admiring his picturesque
frankness. He would make a usefu
member Of congress-in the absence o
the sergeant-at-arms.

a Queer Assurance.

Philadelphia Telegram: Secretary Eos
ter's assurance respecting the condition of
the public finances is anything but reassur-
ing. The secretary deliberately states that
the nation will in all probability be en-
abled to take care of all its obligations, and
as deliberately admits that to maintain this
solvent condition it may possibly become
absolutely necessary to use the 800, O0O,COo
gold held by the treasury in trust for the
redemption of the legal tenders. That is to
say, to meet current claims the government
may possibly be forced to lay hands on
trust funds which it has no moral. even if by
y stretch of technical construction 1t can
snow a legal, right to touch. This strange
announcement will recall the jest concern
ing the debter who declared his firm de-
termination to pay what he owed if he had
to borrow the money to do it. In this case,
unfortunately, the jest carries a grim and
f%orbiddlng significance anything but
amusing.

governor for two years and until his suc-
cessor was duly qualified. He still acts AS
governor because NJ successor has yet been

weapon Against strikers.
ScorrpAlE, Pa, May s.-The monotony
was broken to- day by tho burning of a coal
tapple. at the mutual plant of the Fricke
company. which Crippled its operation.
Officials charge strikers with setting thu
fire. Tonight a report reached mere shat 2
deadly explosion occurred IN the Adelaide
shaft but this tho company denied.
Foreigners are coming into the coke re-
gion In bulk. An operator said to-day that
no could turn 5000 men into the coke re-
gion in twenty four hours, but could not
shelter them. The popularity about this
Wholesale impo tation ia that the strikers
are rs firm and unbroken rs ever. 10
day labor officials say there will soon DO q
plentiful supply OF money and tents for tn Q
needy, but this they have been promisin g
for weeks. 1t is particularly noted that aid
pledged from the federation of labor has lot
yet made its appearance. In strikers a re
losing ground, though the region as II
whole is making a poor howln IN COX
shipments. Outside of several pacific evlc-
tions, and one occasion where u black-leg
was obliged to quit work by strikers, all
was serene to-day. Leaders and mon are
preparing for a vigorous campaign between
this and Monday, and will endeavor to
talk with every worker, either by mass
meetings, or individually, in order to induce
them to stop work. The effects OF this con-
certed move will be known Monday.
In addition to the Inconvenience suffered
by near town furnaces owing to the coke
strike. a general complaint comes to-day
from Mahoning and Shenango valley fur
naces that are estimated to produce one
eighth of the pig iron in the country. Thu
furnaces in these valleys shut down last
January for two months, but the coke
strike came upon them Just as they o.
pected to resume, and for five months
many blast furnaces in the valley have
been dead. The operators would be glad
to resume, but the coke supply is too weak
to be depended upon. In figuring up
losses, no attention has yet been paid to the
railroads, that are really the greatert losers.
The lines running through the coke regions
have missed their 5000 oars of coks per
week for three months, while the roads
in shenango and Mahoning valleys for five
months have found a falling off in ship
ments of millions of tons of coal, iron ore
and finished articles. All this loss. exclu-
sive of wages OF the men on every side,
and profits Of coke and furnace and mill
operators, will present figures OF loss al
most beyond belief.

THIS will be the greatest veal for min

THIS will be the greatest year for min
ing in the history of Montana. Reports
of extensive development, new and rich
strikes and heavy investments in new
camps indicate remarkable activity in
all mining sections of the state. While
all Montanians rejoice over this outlook,
they have good reasons for satisfaction
over the outlook for agricultural pros
perity. The great rainfall will bring
thousands OF dollers to the farmers,
while the close of the year will find
great advancement in the system OF
irrigation for the state.
