BANKERS TALK.
The Day Largely Devoted to the Read.
ing of Addresses.
AN ADDRESS BY MIR. ECKELS.
The Comptroller of the Currency Thinks
the Long Depression in Financial
Circles Has Passed-A Sound
Currency System Coming.

DETROIT, Mich, Aug. 1s.-When the
second days session of the American
bankers convention began, the hall
was crowded with men of money and
interested auditors. The day was de-
voted largely to the reading of adj
dresses, the one which attracted the
most interest being by James II. Eek
els, comptroller of the currency. He
began:
The country stands rid. for some years at
least, OF tariff agitation. and irrespective OF the
merits or dement's Of the new act, every bust
ness man knows In so far as 1t Is concerned,
upon what basis to engage In manufacturing,
trade and commerce. The evidence accumu-
lates with each days advlCes that the long con-
tinued depression in financial circles has
passed and, thanks to five years Of forced
economy and cessation Of speculation. coupled
with to-day's abundant harvests and remuner-
ativa prices to the agriculturlsts a new pros
perity is coming to the people. This prosper
ity, If 1t is to be Of real WORTH ought TO be per-
manent in character and reach To all classes
and interests
Mr. Eckels said that no thoughtful
student of affairs could fail to know
how largely as contributing element
to past idleness, agitation, distress
and poverty had been the extravaganza
that has entered into the Americans
everyday life, and he also attributed
the bad effects mentioned in meas
ure to rash speculation by bankers.
The speaker sharply criticised congress
in its relation to coinage, saying in
part:
BY the operation Of the Bland-A Allison act
was caused the coinage Of many millions OF
silver dollars ut o value far more than the COM
mcrcial value OF the silver metal In them and
OF far less value than the metal In the gold
dollar with which II Is provided they shall be
OF equal LEGAL tender value and alongside OF
which they are expected TO circulate. And as
II 20 add the GROWING act to q series Of com
plications already perplexing to an unheard Of
degree, the She man law has given us still
other silver dollars and treasury notes to
burden an already oyerburdened gold re-
serve, without in the smallest measure adding
TO its safeguards. We search in vain
to find some solid foundation upon
which all this structure rests but the statute
books reveal nothing. save that there Is drawn
about It what Is deemed the sacred circle" OF
governmental protection, In the declaration
made, that Il Is the established
policy Of the United States to maintain the
TWO metals at parity with each other upon
the present legal ratio or such ratio rs may be
provided by law" The dec aration Is made

road and the Rice County Complainant.
LYONS, Kan, Aug. 1S.-The freight

spondent, reached an agreement where

SILVER MINING TO CEASE.

Colorado Operators VIII Turn Their Alton
tiOn to the Gold Bearing Veins.
IDAHO SPRINGS, COL, Aug. 1S.-As a
result of the decline in silver, the La
MARITIME mine has discharged its force
of men working on silver lodes. Man
ager Menchet said: "The price of sill

So, 900, 900, and it is one of the heaviest

in the upper end of Clear Creek county
will also discontinue the working Of
silver properties, and in future mining
operations give attention exclusively
to the collaborating veins.

wHEAT,s WILD ADVANCE.

Sensational Rise of Nearly Five Cents at
Kansas City and Chicago.
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Aug. lS.-A wild
advance in the wheat market carried
prices of hard wheat up nearly five
cents a bushel, some closing sales be-
ing made at S3A cents in the excite
ment attending the advance, though
yearly all the sales were 81 cents. In
Chicago December wheat went up four
cents and September sold at 81 cents.
The main cause of the big upturn was
a sensational rise of nearly seven cents
4 bushel in Paris prices and an urgent
demand for wheat to go to France.

tuli and adequate powers necessary to enable
him, under any and all circumstances, TO en-
force that policy to the credit Of the nation and
with the least expense to the citizens
Mr.. Eckels declared that the citizen
who noted the trend of events must
see that the cloud on the horizon was
the ambiguity introduced in govern
ment contracts by legal tender issues,
decried the sentimentality of those
who would retain the eenbaclSs be-
cause of war associations and asserted
that the temporary issues of that day,
despite the appeals of the chief execu-
tive and secretaries of the treasury,
are still fixed part of the volume of
the currency. He then went on and
said:
myself have never in the past wavered In
the belief nor do / now, that in the end we will
be possessed OF a banking and currency system
so strong as TO make imDregnable the country's
credit. It's coming may be long delayed and
only be attained after "A tremendous loss to

south stands q large red-yellow moon,
encircled by yellow ring and light gol-
den clouds floating in the blue back
ground. Presently the aurora borealis
shakes over the, vault of heaven its veil
of glittering silver-changing now to
yellow, now to green, now to red. 1t
spreads, it contracts again, in restless
change; next it breaks into waving,
many-folded bands of shining silver,
over which shoot pillows of glitterlng
rays and then the glory vanishes. Pres
emily it summers in tongues of flame
over the very zenith; and then again it
shoots bright ray right W from the
horizon, until the whole melts away in
the moonlight, and it is as though one
heard the sigh of departing spirit.
Here and there are left few waving
streamers of light, vague as forboding
they are the dust from the aurora's
glittering cloak. But now it is growing
again; new lightning shoots up, and the
endless game begins afresh. And all
the time this utter stiffness, impressive
as the symphonies of infnitude.
