A new chapter of infamy is added 10
the record Of the Mckinley Administra-
kion in the revelation of Secretary Cages
dealings with the National City Bank
Nothing more corrupt was ever proven
against the Cabinet officers Of the Grant
or Hayes epochs. The denominations OF
uleerism were not more fragrant. In
deed, there is nothing in the history OF
the government which surpasses the Gus
tom House check episode for cynical eff
frontery.
Briefly, the bank bought the old Gus
tom blouse building in New York. 1t
paid for it with two of its own checks
a-ggregating 50, 2s5,O 900. The day following
that on which the payment was made,
Secretary Gage sent these two checks to
the National City Bank "for collection"
He gave the bank its own checks 70 col
lect. The bank COLLECTED the money and
holds it on deposit. In other words, the
bank bought the Custom House building
and. to date, has not paid one penny for
It in actual cash.
Be it remembered, at the same time,
that the government was under no neces-
sity of collecting the amount of the
check through a bank. The New York
s~ub-Treasury is a member of the Clear
ing House, n was therefore able to
collect the check itself without the
slightest trouble.
