Washington Letter

L
WASHINGTON, D. C. November Goth, 1894.
At first glance it would appear to
those who form hasty conclusions that
the aggregate amount of the bids sub
mitted-$l55,O 900, OOO-for the $50, 900,
600 in bonds which are to be issued by
the Government was an indication that
the county had large surplus of N oney
for which the people had no use, but a
little study of list of the bidders will
quickly show how fallacious such an
assumption would be. Thanks to the
persistency Of few Of the bidders, the
full list of those who bid for the bonds
was made public as soon as the bids
were opened, although Secretary Car
Isle had intended that the names should
be Withheld from the public until Con-
gress called for them with special res.
olution, as it did after the first bond
issue e,and as it would certainly have done
after this one, Among the bidders,
several hundred in number, there were
only nine individuals, all the remain
der being banks, insurance, and trust
companies, and the aggregate of the
amount desired by the individuals was
too small to be even considered-les
than $4,000.
Is it any wonder, therefore, that
congressman and others interested in
the financial problem, which everybody
now admits to be the most important
before the country, should be asking
why it is that there is $l55, 100000
about $3.50 per capita, and more than
one-teuth of all the money said by the
Treasury to be in circulation-in the
hands Of these banks and corporations
which its owners are anxious to loan to
the Government at from 2.7.S to per
cent, while the average man whose real
estate is mortgaged is compelled to pay
double as mu ch, or more, for the use Of
money That this question will be
asked in dozen forms on the floor of
Congress is certain, but that it will, or
can be, satisfactorily answered is alto
gether another matter. That there is
surplus of money in the vaults of the
rich banks is just as certain as it is that
there is lack Of sufficient money IN the
hands of the people. When this can be
equalized the financial problem will
haye been solved.
There is division of sentiment in the
Cabinet, as we'll as in the democratic
party. as to what financial recommen-
dations the President should make in
his message to Congress. At least two
members Of the Cabinet believe that it
will be mistake for the President to
recommend financial system in his
message when he knows that it cannot
possibly be acted upon by the present
Congress and that it will provoke most
bitter opposition in his own party. They
have advised him to merely recommend
that Congress authorize the appointment
by the President of non-partisan COM
mission, to make thorough investiga-
OF the subject to be EN- bodied in report
to the President. 1t is said that Mr..
Cleyeland would be willing to accept
this adyice. although he isn't in the
habit of doing that sort Of thing, if he
could be certain that Congress would
leaye the appointment of the commits

When we read such an announcement

our very being. And yet the number
of lives lost by accidents at sea are very
few compared to the number which are
sacrificed to single diseases on land.
Take consumption. Statistics show that
twenty per cent of all deaths are due to
this fatal malady. 1t would be easier
to reconcile ourselves to the fearful fact
if there were no remedy. But there is.

BARON A VICTOR.
He Defeats Thayer by just Two
Billiards sG

Billiards. sa'
One of the closest contests that has
yet occurred in the Foley summer
handicap billiard tournament came Oft
last night between Thayer and Baron.
Baron defeated Thayer in fifty-four
innings by just two billiards, the score
showing 800 to 29S. Baron was handi-
capped at 100 and Thayer at $50. Judged
by the actual number of points made,
Thayer was in the lead at the finish IS
points, Baron only doubled twice,
making IS and Is. Baron's credited
average was 5 1921, and his actual
average 21-27. Since Thayer has
trained down to his proper weight and
gotten rid of his superfluons adipose he
is beginning to show what he can do.
He chalked his cue and made 4 as
starter, following with neat run
of Is. He bobbed along very easily
for nine more innings, when he
spurted with 10. Three little ciphers
did not add anything 10 his string. so he
"Shook back" at Baron with run of IA.
Two more innings showed but little
Roadway. Calling for more chalk, he
thoughtfully rubbed a little on the tip
of his cue and made, in succession, l6
and %. He labored through five more
innings to increase his string Is buttons,
and then made plunge, showing up
with his highest run for the gane-26.
In his twenty-ninth and thirtieth in-
nings he made, successfully. 10 and 13-
closing his list of double figures. He
doubled just eight times, and made an
actual average of 1927, and credited
one of 5 14-27. Doubles of odd figures
are seemingly favorite with him. as
four out of the eight of his high runs
were of this class. But he's odd him
self, which accounts for it, probably.
