The present financial condition of the I

THE present financial condition Of the
country calls to mind Thomas Jefferson
ideas on finances. He once said ~ be-
ieve banking institutions are more dan
gerous to our liberties than standing
armies. Already they have raised up a
money aristocricy that has set the gov
eminent at defiance. The issuing power
should be taken from the banks and re-
stored to the government and people,
to whom it properly belongs. Let banks
exist, but let them bank on coin and
treasury notes"
The Coeur d'Alene press. (Coeur d'Alene, Idaho) 1892-1907, 1893-12-30

In appointing the republican renegade
OF Pennsylvania, Wayne Mcveigh, to the
Office Of minister to Italy, President
Cleveland certainly gave the members Of
his own party a slap in the face; but he
is capable OF this, and the present in
stance is not the first one in which he
has gone to the ranks of the mugwumps
for persons to fill important positions.
He has little regard for the wishes OF his
party and less for those OF the people.

to the southwark, and again the pas
sengerS f1Ocked on deck. Rockets were
fired, and soon the light, that at first
seemed to fade away, began to grow
more and more distinct, and in half an
hour small steamship lay alongside.
In answer TO the Umbria's signals the
newcomer reported that she was YES
sci of the Wilson line, bound for Phila-
delphia, and that she could not take the
other in tow because she did not have
coal enoughs With which pleasant i'm
formation she signaled goodbye and
departed. From the time the hour was
taken at noon Friday until she broke
down that evening the Umbria had
made 124 miles. At Monday noon SHE
had drifted forty-tWo miles and the
gale was still blowing.
Just after luncheon on Monday a
steamer was sighted proceeding west
ward. In answer to the Umbua'S sig-
nails she came alongside and proved to
be the ManhanSett, bound from SWAMI
sea to New York, the property of James
McCaldin, one Of the passengers on the.
Umbria. The Manhansett had scarcely

obtain by towing the disabled vessel to

ship hove in sight and bore down rapt
idly toward the drifting vessel. In a
few moments she was close enough for
the officers of the Umbria to distinguish
her as the GqI)ia, Of their own line. en-
route from Boston to Liverpool. The
officers of the Manhansett also recog-
nized the Gallia, and steamed off home
ward, disconsolate, done out of her
prize money. -
Everybody On board the Umbrla was
jublant, from the captain to the small
est baby in the steerage. Isn't this
Cunard luck?" the officers asked each

line and the sea smooth, conditions that
existed until the end of the voyage.
Nevertheless, when II O'Clock came and
the machinery was not started, and the
log informed the passengers that they
mad drlfted twenty-five miles further
from the course, there was much mur-
muring and complaint. A notice was
now posted to the effect that the
steamer would start at $50 in the even
Ing, and the passengers learned that
the machinery had been moved during
the night as an experiment and that
one OF the bolts Engineer Tomlinson
mad put into the thrust block had
broken. This was not encouraging,
and the croakerS were more anxious
than ever, but about $50 o'clock the
thrill of the engines was felt through
the steamer and she worked off-at
slow rate of speed, to be sure-but as
Staunchly and steadily as if her driving
machines were intact.
The drifting of the Umbria and the
short distance she was lowed by the
Bohemia brought her back nearly to the
place where her machinery gave out.
She came to a StandStill in latitude
43.4S and longitude $40 on Fri
day morning. When her machi-
merry was started on the next
Tuesday night she had come back
70 latitude 1880 and longitude 5000. On
/ Wednesday noon she had made 159
miles, on Thursday noon her record was
224 miles for the previous twenty-four
hours, and from that time until Friday
noon she had covered 225 miles. In the
afternoon Mr.. Stern circulated the fol-
lowing petition, which resulted in a
subscription Of considerably over $500
in an hour:

on board had that there had been an
accident was after dinner on Friday,
although the engineer had been watch
ing the shaft with anxiety for forty
eight hours, and the machinery had
twice been stopped during the previous
night for an inspection of the flaw in
the great steel casting. During dinner
Friday the steamer came to a StandStlll,
Shich caused some speculation among
the passengers. though, as the weather
was rough, it was not at once perceived
that the machinery was not in motion.
About 1880 O'Clock in the evening, as
the men in the smoking room were
lighting their cigars, sitting over their
coffee, or drawing up their chairs to tine
poker table, Capt, Mckay came in.
"Gentlemen," he said, calmly, adj
dressing the entire room, 81 ain
sorry to inform you that we have
broken our shaft, and we shall be I'M
able to proceed at present. | shall,
however, accept towing from any YES
sci large enough that comes within
hailing distance"
There was a mOmentary silence as
the situation daWned upon the room,
and then plaintive voice inquired:
"Why don't you send up rOckets?'
There will be time enough for reck-
ets," responded the captain, "when a
vessel comes near enough 10 see them"

tow her larger sister with ease, and there
would be no big salvage to payto rescu-
ing steamer of another line. The CON

and passengers may be imagined when,

Umbria signaled back. I'VE hold you
responsible" whereupon the Gallia
simply dipped her ensign, signifying
good bye. and disappeared to the east
ward as the Manhansett passed out OF
sight to the west.
Officers and passengers on the UNI
brla looked at one another in dumb be
wilderment. The GaIlia had not even
waited long enough to inquire the eX-
tent of her sister ships injuries. For
all that Capt. Fergersoa, of tine other
ship, knew, the Umbra might be foun-
dering. The Gallia's action was mex
plicable on any basis that any one on
board the Umbria could imagine. The
passengers now were, many of them,
genuinely alarmed. They did not place
much faith III Engineer Tomlinson's
promise to mend the broken shaft, and.
as many believed Capt. Mckay had de-
liberately sent the Gallia away. much
discomfort was expressed. There was
talk OF forming committee TO demand
of the CAPTAIN that he do something,
though no one could suggest anything
for him to do.

New YORK, Dec. 31.-The Umbria
was boarded when she arrived Off quar-
antine by reporter. The noble ship
seemed none the worse for the expert
ences of the past week. She passed
through the narrows and sailed up the
bay at slow speed, but with as much
grandeur as though she had just broken
a record instead of shaft. Pilot Charles
Peterson was on the bridge with Capt.
Mckay. 1t took only few minutes for
the health officer to learn that all were
well OH board, and with Uncle Sans
revenue cutter clinging to one side the
Umbria steamed up the bay. She was
greeted on every side by chorus of
whistles from tugs and steamers. Her
passengers crowded her decks and
waved handkerchiefs at the passengers
on other craft. Capt. Mckay was found
on the bridge. He said that trem the
time the Umbria left Queenstown on
Dee. Is until the 23d there were strong
winds and heavy seas, but all went well
