There is clash of interests be-
tween the makers of binding Irvine,
who want free trade in hemp and
jute, and the hemp growers, who
want protection. The WAYS and
Means Committee is troubled how
to reconcile matters.
An organization is trying to
raise $40, 900 with which to buy and
present Gen. Nelson A. Miles, the
head of the U. S. Army, a residence
in Washington. On motion of Sen
ator Allen, POPulist, of Nebraska,
the Senate adopted resolution to
inquire into the matter and to re
port a bill to prevent it. Because
| Gen. Miles sent the soldiers to put
down the Chicago riots is the mo-
tive of the resolution.
There is a clear prospect for the

"Richmond, KY, Jan. I'll vol

based upon the observation ! have
had in the last thirty days. There
will be fewer pounds of tobacco
weighed out of the 20 crop by one
third than there was in either the 81
or the 80 crops, and that there will
be more mean and less good than in
either of the others.
There will also be fewer tobacco
beds burned in KENTUCKY than for
ten years by one-half, and the man
who has good tobacco and holds il
until later on will get pay for his Ia

10 winch we F'lv of no exception,
and at the Pr, moment the rule
is being STIR slag illustrated in the
| United Stat
The accur uiaiipn Of unemployed
money in n " York will coatinue
usually it goes on until the spring
Is well advanced. Therefore the
surplus reserve may be expected to
grow, and it is reasonable to expect
that in about month or so ship
ments of gold from New York to
Europe will begin.
After a crisis, as already ohserv-
ed, there is always II accumulation
of unemployed NOISY; which
means, firstly, that coin and notes
return from the interior to the great
banking centers, and, secondly,
that new enterprise is stopped
and that business remains exceed
ingly quiet for a considerable time.
This has always happened in every
country in the past, and therefore
it may be predicted safely that il
will happen in the United States
in fact, it is happening there at the
present moment. The loans and dis
counts on November Z last amount
ed to SS,i36,000. On last Satur-
day they were EOS, 100000, an in
crease In the ten weeks therefore,
of f9,Sii,000, being less than
fl, 100000 week. In other
words, the addition to the
loans made by all the associated
banks in the ten weeks was less
than the addition to the legal ten
der reserve alone, and was very
considerably less than the whole
addition to the reserve, while the
addition to the deposits was nearly
two and a half times as great as
the addition to the loans and dis
counts. From all this it appears
that the United States is just now
passing through the extreme de-
preston that always follows a Sc
we're crisis. If the new Admins
tration and the new Congress act
wisely the depression will pass
away by and by. Trade will grad
ually revive, confidence will return,
new enterprise will spring up and
there will be a large investment
from abroad. But first there must
be a period of liquidation and con-
valesence. During that period the
rates of interest and discount will
be very low, for the reason that
new enterprises will be absent.
And, as rates will be higher in Eu-
rope, it will be profitable to send
gold for the purpose of employing
it more remuneratively.
1t is often said that as the value
Of the exports for the whole year
1896 exceeded the value of the i'm
ports by 65 millions sterling, other
countries are indebted to the United
States instead OF the latter being
indebted to the rest of the world,
and therefore that there will be no
occasion to ship gold. The answer
is that if gold was never shipped
except in payment of debt the gold
demand would be very much small
er than it is and the gold move
ments would be trifling. Gold will
be shipped from the United STAGES,
firstly, because it will be profitable
to send it, and, secondly, because
the circulation is redundant. 1t
seems to be generally agreed that
Mr.. Mckinley will cal! an extra
session of Congress for the purpose
of introducing a tariff bill. and
that IN consequence the reform of
the currency will be postponed till
the regular session next December.
If that happens the currency will
remain redundant and gold will he
