PASSION OF PANIC.
Moro Harm from NJ en- Losing Their Heads

More Harm from NJ en- Losing Their Heads
Than from Actual Conditions.
In times of financial or commercial
decentralization above all others impos.
sible is fair and cool estimate Of the
deranged conditions. Unreasoning dis.
trust and unmitigated selfishness con.
troll the situation. Every unfavorable
factor is magnified and every favora BILE
one is minified. Men of heretofore
sober and courageous Judgment fall a
prey to their fears; men of impulse be.
come virtual maniacs. lure by will-o'.
the-wisps and Mortified by nightmare.
The danger of crisis never arises from
the actual onditions one-half so much
as from mep of affairs losing their
heads. Because small number of in
solvent m erchants or spectators have
run the length of their rope and must
forthwith settle up-therefore every
body ceases to trust any body and
rushes to claim his own; which means
a general winding up of credits and
more or less suspension of business
throughout the community.

ize all this sort of thing as anything
short of a species of insanity; and yet,
in spite of this consciousness of the ut
ter irrationality of panic, no one seems
capable of rational self-control. The
explanation of this anomaly seems to
be that the instincts to which men sur
render themselves in these periods be-
irca,,.<,ae oil
tered action. Fear and selfish
ness have valuable function
when kept within due limits;
but unrestrained they become most
dangerous stimuli of social disorgani-
zation. The two interact upon each
other and mutually iniame one anoth-
er. The fear OF loss incites the selfish
desire to collect ones own, no matter
who may have borrowed it nor what
the borrower may suffer from its with
drawaL In turn, the effect of this vio-
lent process of compelling liquidation
is to intensity fear through the conse-
quent disorganization of credit.
A worse pair of passions could not
be let loose upon society; nevertheless,
they are distinctive passions of panic.
1t is hopeless to seek to control these
destructive forces in any other way
than through avoiding the indictments
calculated to bring them into activity.
When we come to understand how much
the natural adjustment of disordered
conditions is hindered by the artificial
regulations introduced by legislation,
we shall have taken a long step to-
wards mitigating the virulence of
panics. The restrictions of bank re-
serve laws are the principal hindrances
to an easy and natural adjustment and
becom the chief excitants to the feel
ings that run riot. When those re-
straints are ignored fear abates and
remedy sets in. Regulations that,
when enforced, become scarecrow,

Yesterday she walked up to this superb
creature with her sweetest and most demure
air. She had a sample Of cashmere that she
knew couldn't be matched in Chicago, aud
she laid it down in front of him without

If there is anything that he hates-so the
women say-it is to take down goods from
the shelves; but when a sample is brought in
to be matched he can't help himself He was
