OF course the government should not
be run in the interest of bankers or any
other special class. but it must be re-
membered that bankers are generally
sound and conservative in their finan-
cial views, and New York bankers are
not the most stupid in the business.
While the President should not in any
thing yield to their dictation he should
not ignore their advice nor underrate
the value of their opinions The adj
ministration is sadly in need of good
advice on financial questions at present,
and is more likely to get it from New
York bankers than from Southern DEM
Ocratic politicians.

The President in his annual message
gave his unqualified Endorsement to Sec
rotary Carlisle's CURRENCY plan. He
said:
The Secretary explains his plan so plainly
and its advantages are developed by him
with such remarkable clearness that any
effort on my part to present argument in
its support would be superfiuous. L shall
therefore, content myself with an unquali-
fled Endorsement of the Secretary's proposed
changes in the law
This had reference to Mr.. Carlisle's
plan as embodied in his first bill. That
bill was Knocked out in one days dis
cussion. and the one now before the
House is materially different. As Mr..
Cleveland has no intelligent views on
the currency question he probably gives
his unqualified Endorsement to the pres
ent bill just as he did to the first one.

MAcKAY on THE STAND.
He Tells His Side of the Mining
Suit.

Suit.
San Francisco, Aug. 2S.-The examina-
ton OF President G. H. Fish, in the big
| mining suit of Teho Fox VS.. John w.
! Mackay, before Judge Seawell. was con-
cluded early yesterday, and. Mr.. Mackay
occupied the stand for the rest Of the day.
The testimony yofPrcsident Fish was along
the same lines as pursued hon Monday, in
the effort of the plaintiff To- show that Mr..
Fish's actions as president were controlled
by Mackay, Flood and O'Brien. Mr.. Fish
said i'll response to questions asked by At
torney Siebcrbst, that neither of those
persons sought tu influence him in any
thing he did in his official capacity as
president.
Knowing that they knew all about the
mine and were more or less interested
directly or indirectly, he said he used TO
talk with Flood about the affairs of the
mine and also asked the advice OF Mackay
in certain contingencies, but generally
Flood. Mr.. Mackay stated that since 1888,
the time of making the first Jones contract,
he had not owned or controlled the ma jority
of the shares of the Consolidated California
and Virginia Mining Company, and he ex
planned the workings of the mine Ia show
the difficultyof the work under the Jones

LEGAL FIGHT AVOIDED.
a tchisOn Road Sale VIII Not Take
PIuoa


Place.
Chicago, Aug. 2s.-What threatened to
be hot legal contest was settled yester-
day by the withdrawal of the Intervening
petition of the Chicago Elevated Terminal
Railway in the application for the sale OF
the Atchison under the reorganization plan
The Elevated Company protested against
the sale OF the part of the Atchison east of
the Missouri, and had the papers all pre-
pared in attachment suits for debt in case
there was any chance of its protest
not being bonored. The withdraw al ended
all opposition to tie decree, which was
granted yesterday in Leavenworth.
A settlement was hurriedly made during
the day with Gen. I. TorTence, presi-
dent OF the Terminal Company. He declined
to mention the terms OF the settlement,
simply saying it was made in cash and was
perfectly satisfactory to him. He had wired
Judge Springer to withdraw the original
suit and not TO file the new ones.

GENERAL SPORTING NOTES.

John A. Downing, who represented the
Columbia Athletic Club at the swimming
contest at the Wayne Natatorium, Phila-
delphia, didn't have good luck. In the
half-mile championship, the prime pal
event, eight men started, and Downing
was among four who dropped out after
finding that they were too far behind
to come anywhere near winning from
the leader, j. l. Davis. In the 1OO-yard
| swim Downing finished among the last
OF six entries, the event being won by C.
T. v. Taylor.
The claim OF spriDter, Tom Robinson,
that ne ran 100 yards at Bloomington,
Illinois, few days ago. in 3-4 seconds,
is being disputed Robinson may have
performed this record-brea king feat, /,
but if he did he was unfortunate in having
done il at Bloomington. That town is
infested with foot-race sharks, and many

ing that those who know anything about
the sprinting game are suspicious Of
Robinson's performance.

stands far ahead of all of the class ''B'
men in the way of victories this eeason.
He has eighty points to his credit, while
Gardner and Cabanne are tied for second

The men are well matched, the road goud,
and there is no doubt but that the record
made by c. E. Cause, who won the race
last year, will be easily lowered. There are
