SENATOR HILLS POSITION.


Senator David Bennett Hill, Of New
York, the man who tried so hard by
means OF crafty wire pulling and cum
ming but very pernicious ways, to pe.
come the Democratic candidate for the
Presidency, is being scored upon all
sides for the positi III ne assum ii in the
Senate on Wednesday.
While the country is endeavoring in
every s-ihle way 10 recover itself
from the strain that has been upon it
for some months past, Senator Hill,
seemingly in a pernicious spirit, seconds
the resolution Of Populist PefTer-he CT
the Misunderstanding upon the Secre
'ary OF the Treasury to investigate the
alleged violation of the law by the New
ork and other Eastern national banks
in their refusal 10 pay out currency on
checks and in their settlement of bal
ances with clearing house certificates.
u IS the general opinion that Senator
PETER is not responsible for more than
half that ne says and does because he
doesn't know any better, but that Mr..
Hill should take occasion to antagonize
and criticise his own constituency when
he apparently is we'll informed upon the
situation as it eXlsts in the METROPOLIS.
is beyond comprehension
The alleged violation has been appar-
ont TO all people in all times of such
financial embarrassment, and in the eff.
bort OF the banks to tide over the situa.
ton such measures as are criticised are
and must be overlooked by the Treasury
officials. If they are held strictly to
the letter of the law suspensions and
failures would follow upon all sides.
But Mr.. Hill has ovid emily some
othcr game to play and his movements
will be looked upon by his associates
with suspicion until he shows his true
colors.
This he partially tried to do in his
speech yesterday, which savored OF
more soundness than on Wednesday.
But at this time he took occasion to
maliciously stab his successful antago.
mist OF one year ago by accusing Presi.
dent Cievelahd Of not meeting before
the demands of his party and tho New
York Democracy. Mr. Hill as a kicker
cannot be discounted.

THE following item is. indeed, good
food for reflection: Tho week ending

Bradstreet's. OF these, forty nine were
In the South and 800 in the Western and
Northwestern States, against twenty
two in the South and but fifty in
the West and Northwest during the
same period of 1892. Analysing the
failures in the South during the 1893
week, nineteen were over So ,OOO; in the
West and Northwest fifty were over
$1,000" 1t substantiates the truth OF
the statement that the South, and pal-
ticularly this section of it, has not been
so seriously affected by the financial
ssringency as have the other new sec
tions of the country.
