THE ONLY BANKRUPT ELEMENT.
An Eastern GOLD pancr saws.

An Eastern GOLD paper says:
The only really bankrupt element of the
country is the public treasury. Tine people are
more generally solvent than they were in any
of our former financial revulsions; the banks
are SOUND and limit discounts only 10 the first
class colIaterals demanded by the changed con-
dtions of business, and the whole trouble to.
day is from the contraction OF public and priv
ate credit, and not from the contraction of
money.
In this bankrupt treasury are $500. OO0.-
600, more or less. in silver and $50. COO. 900
in gold. Every dollar of it is legal tender
for all ordinary public debts and public
dues. The Government is required bv
law to accept coin of either kind and does
so. But the Government only paws ont
gold coin. Naturally the gold reserve has
fallen below what has been held as the
danger point. The journal from which we
have quoted says that the temporizng
policy of the administration has greatly
weakened our credit. American securi
ties have been returned from abroad, and
in consequences we have shipped about
S60000.000 in gold. The remedy lies. in
the gold papers opinion, in bond issue of
100000. 600. What" asks the gold paper.
us S100.000.000 of new bonded debt when
weighed against a depreciation of values
throughout the country aggregating 81. OCO,-
000,000?" An objection to bond issue
is that it would only put off the day of
reckoning. The gold thus acquired would
not last long. Meantime there is no way
to get gold into the treasury. The treas
ury cannot keep on borrowing gold for
ever to pay debts with while it is obliged
to receive silver for all dues. The truth is
that after pursuing policy for thirteen
years in conflict with that marked out by
Congress the treasury is now in corner.
1t will have to induce Congress to adopt
its gold policy or it will have to adopt the
policy Congress esta blished in 1875 Bor-
rowing gold, whether in driblets or by
the hundred millions will not solve the
problem. 1t NAV be remarked in this
place that the platform upon which Mr..
Cleveland was elected calls for the use OF
both gold and silver money
The morning call., 1893-06-12
ELECTRICITY ON CANALS.

New ork is about to try electrical propul-
sion on the State canals as a means of
sustaining their utility against the compet-
ton of the railways. Acts were passed by
the last Legislature to carry out EXPERT
ments, and the inducements are sufficient
to insure competition among the electrical
companies. The canal boats number $500.
and if the trolley system comes into vogue
each craft would require motor costing
$3.50, or a total of $4,000. There would
doubtless be considerable gain 10 the sue
cessful company in putting up poles and
wires, and maintaining the line in eff
cheney. Against this expenditure there
should be the credit Of much cheaper
service than that afforded by horses and
steam power. There is much waste in in
dividual effort, and there would be. very
little in a general supply OF cleo
trcal power which would carry a
string of barges or vessels from
Albany to Buffalo. Provisions will have
to be made by the electrician of some
means by which vessels using the same
wire may be able to pass one another.
The transmitted force will be uniform,
but the tonnage to DO propelled will vary
as well as the draught. This can easily
be arranged by having trolley movable
in several directions, or by halting one
vessel while another takes the lead. There
is no reason why the experiment should
not succeed. and place the canal boats in
the advantageous position desired for the
trade of the West. 1t is also importan t
that New York should widen and deepen
her canals so as to give communication
with the sea for large vessels.
