Security was given in the government

too much to say that if in the building
of the Northern Pacific, for instance,
the stockholders had been made liable,
the purpose of congress to secure
national highway would have been
materially retarded, and it was plain
that no obligation was meant to be put
on one company that was not put on
the other. Any other construction
would be inconsistent. The decision of
the court below was therefore affirmed.
Decision Regarding Bank Liability.
Another decision was handed down,
in which the question involved was
whether the deposits of a savings bank
in a failed national bank could be given
preference over other deposits. It was
decided against the state law, giving
preference to savings bank deposits,
and putting them on the same footing
as other deposits.

being that he was angry with him, but
the crime was committed for robbery
It is learned that Pryde had made ar

CarIisle's Letter Is an Invita-
ton to Gold Spectators.
1t Virtually Says "Come On''
Says Mr.. Faulkner.
GIVES THEM NEW HOPE
Never Knew Before They Could
Get Gold For Silver.
Carlisle Encourages Them and
Gives Them a New Weapon.

Washington, Sept. 1.-THE letter pub
hshed yesterday morning from Secre-
tary Carlisle to a gentleman in Ken
lucky, explaining how the parity is
maintained between gold and silver, is
the subject of much comment at Dem
ocratic headquarters. Chairman Faux
ner, in an interview, alleges there has
been a reversal of the policy of the
treasury department. in regard to the
redemption of silver dollars in gold.
The feature of the secretary's letter
which has occasioned the most COM
ment is as follows:
TT is the duty of the secretary of the
treasury, and of all other public Off
Gals to execute in good faith the policy
declared by congress and whenever he
shall be satisfied that the silver dollar
cannot be kept equal in purchasing
power with the gold dollar, except by
receiving it in exchange for the gold
dollar, when such exchange is demand
ed, it will be his duty to adopt that
course
Senator Faulkner expressed his ere
greet that the secretary of the treasury
should have announced a policy which
invites a depreciation in our currency
and will at once encourage the gold
SPECTATORS and money lenders of the
country to additional raids upon our
gold reserve, with a view of forcing the
government to continue issuing inter-
est bearing bonds to carry out the poll
tary of the treasury, I shall not COM
ment upon the reasons which these
gentlemen holding the views of Mr..
Carlisle have as to why the silver GER
tificate and the silver dollar have to-
day in this country the same purchas-
ing power as the gold dollar" he said,
but I cannot refuse to express my alb
solute dissent from the policy annOunc-
ed by Mr.. Carlisle as the one which will
govern the treasury in reference to re-
deeming silver certificates and coined
silver dollars in gOld.''
The senator quotes from a letter re-
ceiVed by him from the secretary on
August 26 last, in the course of which
he says the department has never been
called upon to redeem silver dollars in
gold, which shows, the senator says,
that the holders of silver certificates
or silver dollars have never entertained
the opinion that the contract on the face
of the certificate which expressly pro-
Vides for their redemption in silver dol
lars, should be construed by the eXecu-
tive department as emitting the holder
to demand gold dollars and much less
had any one ever conceived the idea
before that the silver dollar, made by
law a legal tender in payment and des-
ignated in the statute as the same
standard money of the country should
be redeemed in other COIN
