In another instance Solomon came To the
aid of the financial officers of the govern
ment at q critical time. The officials were
absolutely without means TO supply Gen.
Washington and his little army with the
necessaries OF life. Funds had TO be raised
in some way. Solomon had given of his
bounty until il was we'll nigh exhausted.
But his credit was of the highest not only
in this country but abroad. Subsidies
were authorized by Franco and Holland.
They would do little good In this country.
owing TO the peculiar character of the
foreign securities. They were hardly
worth the paper they were written on. At
this juncture Solomon came forward with
bis Endorsement. which made the foreign
paper as good as silver or gold. II passed
current with the small banks in this coun-
try, and with those of the old country who
knew SalomoD's financial standing. Money
was readily raised on the subsidies. backed
by Salomons signature. and the much
needed funds were raised In time to keep
the military as well as the civil officers of
the government from actual collapse.

It's not one of the numerous claims for

Haym Solomon are now among the leading
Jews of the country. aud they do not lack

their ancestor gave to the country and 10
its early Presidents as one of honor rather
than of profit and they are not asking for
any repayments on the loans which are
well authenticated by evidence. Judge
Chapman thinks. however. that it IS only
honorable and decent for Congress to give
some recognition to such loyal sery ices as
Solomon extended TO the government and
the public leaders of the day. 1t might be
said that he kept Madison ont of the poor
house. and gave the early Presidents the
actual necessaries of life. The gold medal
