AN IMPORTANT CASE.
Judge Williams Rul Controversy
Arising out state National Failure

In the circuit court of the United States
yesterday, judge Williams rendered al
important decision growing out Of the
failure of the Safe National bank. An
action was brought by W. II. Porter
agalus' Cyrus ls-iand. rs receiver Of the
State National bank, for the recovery of
check deposited by him in the State
National on May ). 1894. being the day
upon which tn bank f-lIed, for which
check at the time Mr.. Porter received a
credit upon the pass book held 10y Mr..
Porter. Porter learning OF the failure on
the Monday following, before ;he preSenia-
tlou of the cneck by the State National
bank to the Fourth National bank for
payment, stopped pay meut OF the check.
The court held that under the circum-
stances that the title 10 the check did not
pass from Porter 10 the State National
bank, as the collection had rot been made
and the proceeds thereof reduced to the
posse on of the bank or its agents before
it, failure, and under the circumstances
I ne bank was merely acting "a the acrDt
of Porter, and hence had no tile II the
check, passed and ordered and adjudsed
that the receiver Ieturn the same 20 PoT-
ter. This decision Is regarded as all in

a number of cases involving the same

Heartless Landlords.

"blan's inhumanity TO man,
makes countless thousands mourn"
was never more applicable than to
the wholesale eviction Of the poor
in New York by heartless landlords.
It is estimated from official returns
that 5000 persons have been made
homeless during the winter season
by being elected from their miser-
able quarters in the tenement dis
trict, because of their inability to
pay rents. Nothing could illus
trate more accurately the deplorable
condition of affairs in New York
than the inability of those men and
women to keep even a shelter over
them and their little ones, when
they have been always prompt in
the past to pay their rent, and the
failure to satisfy the demands OF
the landlords at present is wholly
due to the fact that they are entire
ly without employment, and have
been reduced to absolute starvation.
The inhumanity ofsuch proceedings
as turning tenants out in the midst
of the worst winter known in q gen.
GRAFTON, is still more apparent by
reason of the fact that it is claimed
there are vacant houses enough in
New York at present to house 3d.
600 people, and landlords End grca,

TELLER ON THE SITUATION.
He Thinks Secretary Carlisle Should
Have Coined the Seigniorage

Senator Teller, the leader of the
silver forces in the Senate, expresses
the opinion that the proper solu-
ton of the problem for the relief Of
the treasury was to be found in the
coinage of the silver bullion in the
treasury vaults.

ment has on hand and lying idle
material from which money can be
made. What the country wants is
more money, not more gold, espe-
cially, and $55, 100000 could be
added Immediately to this fund
by issuing certificates against the
seigniorage Of the silver bullion
now in the treasury. This could be
followed by the coinage Of the en-
tire amout of this bullion. It is, l
know, claimed by some that the
law under which this bullion was
accumulated requires that it shall
be held in the treasury in sufficient
amount to redeem the certificates
issued against it, but this is a mis-
take. It requires that the certifi-
Gates shall be redeemed in coin, and
and under practice of the treasury
department in redeeming the cor.

Wall Street Triumphant.

Wall Street is exulting. The
money kings have achieved another
victory. Secretary Carlisle has is
sued circular inviting proposals
for $50, 100000 five percent bonds
redeemable after two years, and
that amount of 1922 100000 boarded
in the New York banks can be in
vested in Government securities.
In a time of profound peace, says
the Nevada State Journal, with
abundant crops and 134,OOO,0OO
ounces of bullion lying useless in
the Treasury and minis, which
should be coming it, closed, the in
terest bearing debt of the Nation is
to be increased $5O,OOO,OOO.
Who longer doubts that the Gov
eminent of the United States under
Democratic control, is being run in
the interest of the gold trust, as it
was during twenty-five years of Re-
publican ascendancy2 Though the

faborably on BANDS bill to coin
the Governments profit on the bull
lion in the Treasury, which amounts
to $55, 100000 and issue notes to
that amount to cover the present

hypnotized by the gold trust. ex-
ceeds his authority, many believe
in his haste to oblige the goldmen

the country. 1t simply enables the

A 0oldbug Conspiracy.

II appears from tho dispatch TO
the London Times from Calcutta
that the suspension Of silver coin
age in India, which it was believed
would restore confidence, had much
the same effect as the repeal Of the
Sherman act in the United States.
The refusal of the Indian Govern
ment to indicate its intentions re-
garding silver is causing general
disappointment. The outlook is
becoming gloomier daily and q
most difficult and complicated sit
uation will soon have to be con-
fronted.
It looks as if the suspension of
silver coinage in the United States
and India was the result of a gold
bug conspiracy in which the officials
of both countries were implicated.
The Secretary of the Treasury is
sued an order to suspend the coin
age of standard dollars on June 1st
on the ground that there was no
demand for such coins. Soon af-
forwards it was announced that the
coinage of silver on private account
in India was suspended. The gold
bug press of the country pretended
to regret the action of the British
Government in India, though it
commended the order of Secretary
Carlisle in suspending the coinage
of silver in the United States. Then
Congress was convened in special
session to repeal the Bullion Pur-
chase act and the action of the In
dian Government was used as an
argument in favor of repeal.
Though it was asserted in and
out of Congress by the goldbugs
that the repeal of the Sherman act
would get money in circulation by
restoring confidence, experience
shows that it had the opposite ef-
feet. Money has been withdrawn
from the circulation and is being
stored in the New York banks.
The gold reserve in the Treasury
grows beautifully less every month
the excess of the Government ex-
penditures over receipts increases
daily and the Secretary of the
Treasury proclaims that there is
too much money in circulation and
is importuning Congress for author
ity to issue bonds. With tons Of
silver bullion in the Treasury and
minis idle that ought to be coming
it into dollars, the Government
debt increasing about $10,00OO0O
every month, and the people de-
handing more money, the financial
agent of the nation, to please Wall
street, wants to increase the public
debt rather than relieve the masses
by increasing the currency.
