Feeble Attempt to Renew Riots at
Barcelona.

BARCELONA, March pa renewed
manifestation of the emotional spirits
of the citizens of this town was made
today, though no hostile demonstration
was attempted against the United
States consulate, as on previous oc-
casions. AS is usual on Sunday, there
was a promenade of light hearted holi-
day makers and a concert by the mu-
nicipal band for the enjoyment of the
promenaders. A remarkable scene oc-
Cured during the afternoon which
, seemed to be occasioned by spon-
taneous movement of the crowd. Cries
were raised for the playing of the ma
tional march by the band and the
regular programme of the concert had
to be interrupted to satisfy the de-
mands SO importunate were the cries.
The crowd then proceeded in body
to the French consulate, where a depu-
tation entered to express sentiments of
friendship and esteem for France. The
people here are confident in their belief
that France is pledged to assist Spain
in possible conflict with the United
States. A crowd of 5000 persons out
side was. meanwhile excitedly cheering
for Spain, Weyler and Cuba. The
American consulate and the chief thor
oughfares of the city were guarded by
gendarmes as precautionary meas
ure, but there was no attempt at yio-
lent disorder.
MADRID, March 22-The Heraldo
says: Spain could never officially
recognize United States commission
of inquiry into Cuban affairs It is
impossible that President Cleveland
should have such an idea. War be-
tween Spain and America would be
preferable"
The Heraldo also says: Spain in
former times has accepted the con-
sequences Of more terrible struggles
than would be war with the United
States, and we should prefer to risk a
war to recognizing the commission"

THE ATLANTA JOURNAL.

The Atlanta (Ga.) Journal is
owned by the Hon. Hoke Smith,
Secretary of the Interior
Throughout the late Demo
cratic primaries and prior to that
time, the Journal has been a
strong Administration paper, and
while favorable to silver, has OPP
posed the free and unlimited coin
age of the white metal at the
ratio of 10 to I, because of the
inequality of the ratio above men
toned with the intrinsic value oil
the metal.
But the Journal is not a bolter.
1t remains true to the Democratic
party and indorses the Chicago
nominees. 1t opposes McKin-
leyism for the reason that every
principle of the Republican party
is in violation of Democratic prin-
ciples and traditions.
Therefore, the Journal will sup
port Bryan and Sewall. In max
ing the announcement the Journal
truly says:
During the campaign within the
party the Journal called upon all
Democrats to pledge themselves in
advance to vote for the nominees of
the National Convention. and in that
connection the journal pledged itself
to do so. We find nothing to COM
mend in the platform except it's decla-
ration for the maintenance of a sound
money currency, and this declaration
is qualified by an illtempered criti-
cism of the course pursued by the
present administration, which was
absolutely necessary to sustain a
sound currency.
1.-THE Republican party favors a
high protective tariff; it opposes an
income tax; it is identified with the
trusts and monopolies of the country,
and it can be relied upon to give them
support at the expense of the masses.
In this condition of affairs the Journal
believes it is the part .of patriotism
and wisdom to remain inside the
Democratic party. Especially
is this true in the South.
The Democratic party has
the constant friendship of our section,
while the Republican party has been
its relentless enemy.
after careful dehberation, While
we cannot indorse all of the platform
adopted at Chitago, we have deter
mined to give an earnest to
the Democratic nominees"

statements, amounted to about
5000, 900. The deposits are a
trust fund, and not the property
of the banks. Depositors place
their money in banks simply as a
matter of convenience, and their
funds are at all times subject to
call. If banks were not true to
their depositors and did not pro-
tect the funds entrusted to their
vaults. the banks would be false
to sacred trust and their failure
and utter collapse would be only
a matter of very short time.
Again the Commercial says:
"Your home worth $4,000, your out
side property of equal value, and per-
sonal security undoubtedly equal to
both, would not now be accepted for
loan by the banks, so we CLEAN from
the people, for 5000 Patrons are ae-
eommodated for immediate CONNER
cial purposes, otherwise the banks
would be idle elements of industry in a
land of plenty, but necessitous accom-
dation is unknown in their transae-
ton"
The banks do not lend money
on long time payments on real
estate, but any owner Of real
estate with his title clear, can
borrow money from the building
and loan associations to the amount
of one half of the appraised value
Of his property.
The Commercial again says:
They [the banksl say they have
