The Fight at yellow Tavern.

Gen. Grant formed the detcrmina-
ton to move southwark from the will
derness on Saturday, May z. 1864, hop
ing to plant his army between Gen.
Lee and Richmond by movement
from Spottsylvania Court House, fif-
teen miles southeast of tie wilderness
battlefield. The infantry were not to
march until nightfall but the trains
were sent to Charlottesville during
the afternoon. This movement of the
trains apprised the confederates of
Grants withdrawal but not of his OBJ
jective point. 1t was by accident that
Anderson's confederate corps marched
toward Spottsylyania that night.
Gen. Lee, seeing that Grant was
moving somewhere, instructed Ander-
son, who was in temporary command
OF LOnostreet's corps, to be in readi-
ness TO move to Spottsylvania IN the
morning, but Anderson. not having u
good place to biyouac (tbe woods be-
ing on fire.. moved onward that night

this passage of arms between the ablest
cavalry leaders of the rival armies,
Gen. j. Z. B. Stuart was killed. Hav-

The people Of Milwaukee have had a
revival OF the panic and started in Friday
with the business of bank smashing. The
Commercial bank was the first to 60 un-
der. This was the county depository, and
by It's suspension the county funds were
tied up. On Saturday the Milwaukee
National Bank and the South Side Say
ings Bank closed. But the climax was
reached on Tuesday morning when what
is popularity known as the Mitchell Bank
suspended.
No one expected that run of any con-
sequence would be made on the Mitchell
Bank. The stockholders are mult1-mll-
lionaires and are, by the charter of the
bank, individually responsible and tc the
full extent of their means. The stock
holders are John Mitchell, John John
ston and David Ferguson. The two first
named have mortgaged all their proper
ty to the bank. Mitchell's wealth is esti-
mated at SS000000. That run should
be made on bank with such backing
until It had to close its doors for the lack
of ready money, would be surprising in
ordinary times. But n1thing is sulpris-
ing these days.
When the bank Glade its last statement
on the first of the month. it owed depos-
itors about 100000 During the month
there was drawn out the enormous sum of
S2,0Oo000. On Saturday last there was
drawn ont 100000, and on Monday $780,
600. 1t was next to impossible to secure
cash on securities ara N Tuesday morn
ing wheel the bank opened there was a
rush. 1t was evident there was not mon
ey enough on hand and so the bank closed
The city has on deposit in the bank.
Sl,GU0.G0p, and the state $4,000. There
will be no doubt that depositors Will get
their money and with interest. but the
difficulty lies in the lack of confidence the
closing of such bank causes. When it
was heard in New York that the bank had
closed, stocks began to drop and there
was decidedly panIcky feeling.
On the same day two banks failed at
Indianapolis three IN Louisville and one
IN Ohio. The Obefman Brewing Co. OF
Milwaukee, made an assignment on Tues
day. 1t was a heavy debtor of the
Mitchell Bank.

PRoBERT, the president of the Shell
Lake bank which failed, and who is now
under arrest, was a most violent oppon-
ent of the bill providing for bank ex
aminer He announced that he was able
to run bis bank without outside interior
ence. It is quite evident, now, why he
was opposed to the outside interference.
But how the legislature can find excuse
for refusal to give depositors the security
which comes from thorough examIna-
ton of the condition of the banks to
which they trust the safe keeping of their
money it IS not so easy to understand on
any ground consistent with due regard
for the peoples nights The people are
acting as bank examiners themselves
now, but without discrimination and
without Judgment. Solvent institutions
must suffer because of tho federation by
the state Of rotten banks

Discussed by Delphi and Teller in the
Senate.
WASHINGTON. Sept. 2.-In tho senate to-
day Dolph spoke in favor of his bill nppro-
priatinR half . million for the enforce
ment of the Chinese exclusion act. He
then went ON with statement of the evil
influences and undesirable features OF Chi
nose immigration, reoitin0 the ditastrous
effect of Chinese oompesition in the west
ern states. He reviewed i'll detail legisla-
tion and treaties relating to the subject and
conditions which led up to the enactnent
OF the Geary act. The provision requiring
Chinese laborers In this country to register
and obtain certificates was not inserted for
the purpose of preventing any Chinese
authorized under the existing laws to enter
tho United States and reside here from
doing SO. 1t was inserted for the single
purpose of enabling the government to so
designate the Chinese laborers in this
country, entitled to remain here. that they
might be distinguished from those snug
gled across our borders.
Teller called attention to the fact that
the abrogation of treaty is not violation
Of tho eaty. but carried with it an impii-
cntion OF misconduct on the part of the
government violating it. Certain lawyers in
New York influenced no doubt by large
fees offered by the Six companies, eoa-
cluded the Geary act in violation of the
constitution. In his mind there is no
doubt Of the con nstisutional power Of the
government TO exclude undesirable immi-
grations. He had not read the arguments
of the Now York lawyers because he did
not think there was enough in them 10
justify busy man In reading them. A
