Toronto, March 10.-Osler and Nc
Carthy, barristers of this city, have
been instructed by Sydney Slocum Of
Hamilton, Ont, to enter suit against
the United States government for $780,
900 for false arrest and imprisonment.
Slocum was arrested about a year ago
and extradited on charge of attempt
ed murder at Peoria, Ills. He was tried
and acquitted, after lingering in Jail
for several weeks. Before he left the
courtroom he was rearrested on a
charge of sending obscene newspaper
through the mails. the United States
government officials being the COM
plainants. After being incarcerated for
Is days he was discharged, as the
judges ruled that he could not be tried
on charge other than the one he was
eXtradited on.

The Only Good Paper Currency.

AN propositions for the retirement of
the lEal tenders and the abolition Of
the treasury reserve as feature of our
currency system are coupled with the
demand for a banking system that would
afford large note circulation, one more
responsive to the fluctuating demands Of
business and one whose reserve would be
maintained by banks which would be
compelled by the conditions of their
existence and by law to protect their
notes, and which, through their discount
business, have the necessary machinery
for increasing their reserves or decreas-
ing their liabilities. Such u banking sys-
tenn would provide the paper currency
which the American people would rather
handle in their daily transactions and
carry about as pocket money than specie

practice not followed 90 extensively in
CANDIDA
IN general q single annual move
ment may be said to characterize agfi-
cultural communities. This occurs in
the fall, and is due to what we have
come to call moving the crops Its
explanation may be found In the fact
that farmers, as q class, are not accus-
toned to make use of bank deposits, and
consequently when payments are made
to them for their crops largely at sin
gle season Of the Year, the surplus over
immediate payments is required by them
in the form Of notes-it being unques-
tionably true that in any Of our agrioul-
tural communities in this country the
average farmer has in his possession
during the six weeks following the sale
of his crop much larger amount of
currency than during the rest of the
year. The result in the aggregate is an
extraordinary demand, such as that
which leads in Canada to all annual ex-
pansion Of 20 per cent in the bank cir
culation.
Undoubtedly the needs for currency
in the United States change about as
much as in Canada, but the cost Of buy
ing bonds at high premium on which
notes can be issued only to 90 per cent
of their par value, the red tape neces-
sary to obtain these notes from the gov
eminent and the tax on circulation
make delay and cost in increasing the
circulation which practically prohibit
all increase until the need for such in
crease is past. Therefore interest rates
in this country run up rapidly in Au-
gust and September withoek appreciably
affecting the supply of currency.
In Scotland and Canada the machinery
necessary to increase the supply of cur
rency is simple and is entirely in the
hands of the banks; hence the cost and
delay necessary are much less than with
us. Thus in Canada few big banks
with numerous branch banks" supply
all parts of the country with currency.
When more money is needed in any
province - as in Manitoba when the
wheat crop is being harvested-rates Of
interest begin to rise The profits Of sup
plying currency in this province are in
creased, and Immediately additional sup
plies of currency are sent from the big
banks in Montreal, Quebec or Toronto
to their branch banks in Manitoba Thus
the cost Of moving the crops is much
lower in Canada than in the United
States, where rates Of interest go up and
down without materially changing the
supply Of currency. Of course the farm
ers, through increased competition Of
bidders, who obtain plenty of money at
low rates of interest and can afford tn
pay high prices, reap most Of the benefit.
There are other advantages connected
with branch banks" which it is I'M
necessary to explain here. 1t is sufficient
to say that i'll Canada there is no silver
question to disturb business and occupy
the time of politicians and legislators.
1t is not likely that we will have finan-
cial peace until we greatly improve our
banking and currency systems.

These diagrams show that in Scotland
there is about 20 per cent more of cur
rency in circulation in November than
in February. In Canada there is 30 per
cent more currency in circulation in o.
tober than in May. In the United States
there was only per cent change in cir
culation during the two years 1894 and
1895, and the most of this change is ac-
counted for not by tho changing needs
for currency at different periods Of the
year, but by the sales of United States
bonds, which made it convenient for
banks to increase their circulation. Mr.
Root thus explains the changes in Can
ada and Scotland:
For instance, on comparing the cir
culation Of Canada and Scotland, the
first thing noticed is that in Scotland
there are two upward movements, one
eliminating in May and the other in
November, while in Canada the former
movement is entirely absent and the

DIAN CURRENCY SYSTEMS.

Need For More Money to Move Crops Is
At Once Supplied In Other Countries,
but Not In This-Red Tape, Cost and
Delay In Obtaining Currency Make Our
System Inelastio and Increase Rate of
Interest In August and september-Bet-
ter Banking and Currency Systems Alone
Can Rid Us of the Silver Question.
Secretary of the Treasury Window
said in his treasury report for 1890:
"In my Judgment the gravest defect
in our present financial system Is its
lack Of elasticity 49, The demand for
money, in this country, is so irregular
that an amount of circulation which
will be ample during ten months of the
year will frequently prove so deficient
during the other two months as to cause
stringency and commercial disaster.
The crops Of the country have reached
proportions so immense that their move
ment to market, in August and Septem-
Der, annually causes dangerous alb
sorption of money. The lack Of a suffi-
cient supply to meet the increased de-
mands during those months may entail
heavy losses upon the agricultural as
well as upon other business interest"
How hard and inelastic is our present
unscientiilc currency system, Or lack of
system, is apparent when comparison
is made with the currency systems of
other countries. In pamphlet recently
issued by the sound currency committee
of the Reform club Mr. L. Carroll Root
illustrates the relative elasticity of 20
different banking systems in 10 different
countries. He says:
1.-THE data secured includes weekly or
monthly statements of the outstanding
circulation of the leading bank currency
systems Of the world The period COW
cred in each case is the two years 1894
and 1895. The method Of preparation
of diagrams has been to.take the mini
mum circulation of the period as base
line and to reduce the amounts on other
dates to percentages Of this, In this way
a common measure has been secured,
and comparison Of one diagram with
another is facilitated.
We reproduce below three of Mr..
Roots diagrams which show in a strik-
ing way the great difference in elasticity
of currencies in Scotland, Canada and
the United States.

THE GREEKS TROUBLES.
The Little Kingdom May be dis
Ciplined" by the Powers.
DETERMINED STAND OF RUSSIA.

In Favor Of Pushing Coercion of Greece
to the Farthest Limit, If Necessary-Ths
Greek Consul Expelled from Canea. aud
Greece Protests.
London, March 10.-The temerity of
Greece in returning anything but i'm
plicit obedience to the commands OF
Europe is to be punished. Dispatches
from Berlin and Rome and reports re-
ceived at the British admiralty indi-
cate that the threatened blockade Is to
be enforced. The dignity of the pow
ers requires that at least this much
be done in response to the far from
contumacisus reply of King George.
There is, nevertheless, belief in dip
lomatc circles that the blockade and
any other coercive measures will not,
at present at least, be severe There will
be our-parlers between some at least of
the powers, and the Greek government
with the object of arriving at some
understanding which will obviate a
war.
The fact that Greece still refrains
from declaring war against Turkey, in
spite Of her right to do so, weighs much
in her favor in certain capitals at this
moment. There are indications, also,
that the German emperors naughty
and high handed counsel is by no
means popular with the other powers.
1t is expected that the dignity of the
powers will further require them to
with hatr In let
as happened under somewhat similar
circumstances ten years ago, but even
this step will not destroy all hope of
a compromise.
According to a st. Petersburg dis
patch the Russian government ex-
presses its determination to adhere
unswervingly to it's decision to push
the coercion of Greece to the farthest
limit, II necessary. 1t earnestly hopes
the other powers will display equal
firmness.
The following dispatches have been
received from Athens:
The Greek government has formally
protested to. the powers against the
expulsion OF the Greek consul from
Crete, which was announced yesterday
1t is reported that the Turkish min
lister has asked to be recalled, as he
fears his life is in danger
DR.. Temple, archbishop of Canter-
bury, has sent dispatch to the Met
ropolltan of Athens, in which he says
the people of England are praying
earnestly to Almighty God to give the
Cretans liberty, Justice and peace.
The full text of the Greek reply to
the powers was not published in the
Athens papers until last evening. 1t
is generally approved
The insurgents at Candimo, Crete,
on hearing that autonomy would be
granted to the island, wrote 10 the
British consul, Sir Alfred Billlotti, in
viting him to a conference.
All the Greek subjects at Retimo,
Crete, have been ordered to leave for
Greece, and man-of-war has been
placed at their disposal. These meas
ures are incomprehensible at Canea,
the general impression being that war
has been declared.

in their coming state convention. They
will ignore it for the same reason that a

pity not to have the two great old par
ties in the field in 1900.
