take possession OF the roads, by reason
OF the failure OF the companies to meet
these bonds, as they agreed to do when
they were issued in their aid by the
government But Il is found that II this
is done, the government in taking pos
SESSION of the roads becomes liable for
the payment OF the FIRST mortgage
bonds, which it permitted the roads
to issue TO take precedence Of it's own
bonds In the order OF claim upon the
property.
The owners OF the roads now say that
II they can have further time they can
pay on the first lien, and then pay the
government the full amount OF the
bonds and interest when they fall due
They want the new obligation which
they propose to give the government to
extend over a very long period and TO
draw interest at the rate OF two per
cent per annum. They propose to be.
gin paying at once a fixed sum each
year which shall not only meet the
interest but become sinking fund to
apply upon the eNtinguishment Of the
debt itself. The average period which
the debt would run. by this process.
would be about forty years.
The government. Il will be remember
ed, is entitled TO a certain representa-
ton on the directory OF these roads,
and Government Directors Coombs and
Anderson do not agree with the belief
that the roads, II foreclosed and sold.
would only bring sufficient sum to
pay the first mortgage bonds, and thus
leave the government nothing for its
claim. They have expressed the belief
before the house committee that the
roads, II sold under foreclosure. will
bring l20 millions, which would net the
government about ssO.OOO.OOO. or prae-
tcally the face OF its bonds, leaving II
only the loss OF interest paid on them
from time to time.
The imperative necessity for action
at this time is based not only upon the
fact that the government is paying OF
its own bonds which the roads agreed
10 pay, and viii. by 1899. have them
all paid, but that the first mortgage
bonds are in default. and liable to be
foreclosed at any time; and should the
rosds, under that foreclosure. bring
only the amount OF the first mortgage
obligations. the claim OF the govern
ment would be wiped out. =,
1t is because of these circumstances
that President Cleveland has indicated
that he feels it his duty to institute
foreclosure proceedings unless congress
acts at once, and for the same reason
a vigorous effort will De made TO get
action by both branches OF congress
before the end OF the present session.

The explanation Of the bank failures
IN Chicago. and the consequent embar-
rassment OF other institutions there
and elsewhere in the West which led to
their subsequent failure also, is un-
doubtedly to be found in the reckless
speculation that has been going on.
with the encouragement, IL not the act
ual participation OF the managers of
some of the banks. The great Diamond
match speculation was promoted by
some very prominent financiers in Chi
cago. and its collapse hurt a number of
the banks there. The particular cause
assigned for the failure OF the National
Illinois Bank was the embarrassment
Of an electric street railway company.
which was an ambitious project TO give
South Chicago the benefit Of sixty miles
Of new track, run on the storage bat
terry principle. much OF which has been
this year under construction. II was
an attempt to boom property that had
not yet demonstrated its ability TO yield
dividends. and it appears to have got
too much encouragement from the bank
which paid the penalty OF reckless
plunging. and in its own downfall it
has carried a number Of other and more
reputable concerns to ruin. This is the
true explanation and the only explana-
ton Of the recent bank failures which
have furnished so much gleeful COM
ment for the Populist press.

THE GOVERNMENTS RELATION
TO THE PACIFIC ROADS.

Indications point to a sharp struggle
over the question Of the governments
relations to the Union and Central Pa
cifc Railroad Companies during the re-
mander Of the present congressional
session. The president. it will be re-
membered, called the attention Of con-
gress. in his message, 10 the fact that
about twenty millions Of the bonds
which were issued by the government
in aid Of those two companies, with
the understanding, that they would be
met by them, have been. or will be, dur
ing Ills year, paid by the government,
and that, unless some action by con-
gress is taken in the matter, he will
feel it his duty to begin foreclosure pro-
ceedings to protect the rights of the
gov vinment. This suggestion doubtless
operated to lead the house TO agree 10
give three days TO the Pacific railroad
funding bill. and vote finally upon it on
January II.
The situation regarding these roads
and their Indebtedness IS somewhat Pc
culiar and cOn1pliczted. For the reason
that there spp@ars 70 be considerable
