Our National Debt.

The panic of 1887 and the con-
sequent falling off in the revenues
compelled the government to issue
/, treasury notes ct various times dur
Ing the next three years. for the re-
demption Of which q new loan was
made in l84I. Since that time we
have never been without a national
debt. The highest point the debt
reached between I84I and 1861
was in 1851, when 1t rose to $685.
ooo. 900, an increase due largely to
expenses growing out Of the Mexi
can war. On July 1, 1860, the
national debt was Sos, 900, ooo, an
Indebtedness Of s. per capita. II
1891 It had been SIG per capita.
During the four years Of the civil
war, the government borrowed
nearly three billions Of dollars, In
GLIDING the United States notes.
This rapid and tremendous in
crease in the national debt has no
parallel. The debt reached its
highest point by August 81, 1865.

lions contracted by the govern
ment during the four years Of the
civil war, We are no less amazed at
the rapidly with which these
obligations have been cancelled.
Within twenty-five years after the
war We had paid Of nearly two
billions Of the priuci pal Of the debt.
The lowest point reached by the
debt during the last forty years
Va On September 30, lSoa, when
the bet debt. including greenbacks.
was $S34. 6aa, a46. This was an
indebtedness Of about $r3 per
capita.
During the years ISo4.o6, the
government again sold bonds to
the amount Of $a6a, 900, 900. to re-
plenish the gold reserve and cover
10 the revenues. In
1898. 10 obtain funds for the prose
rution q the Spanish war, the gov
ernment sold bonds to the amount
q about $Ioo, 600. 600. Under the
oct Of March IA 1900,
The government has issued, for re-
purposes, $780, 900, 900
lwo-per.cent thirty.year bonds,
payable Ii gold coin. These are
HE FIRST bonds issued BY the United
States payable specifically in gold.
The present net debt, including
the gseenbacks, reaches total Of

edness Of $I4 per capita. The ma
tioual per capita debt of the United
States Il less than that Of any other

has always been the policy of the
United States. except in times Of
emergency, to reduce its debt con.
Itautly. while the debts Of all the
great European powers are con.
tinually increasing.

GBY TELEGRAPH TO THE rRIBUNE.I

GBY TELEGRAPH TRIBUNE.I
Washington, June 27--The regular statements
showing the condition of the Seventh National
Bank of New-York, received AT the Treasury in
response to the quintennial calls of the Con-
troller of the Currency demanding abstracts
from all national banks, have heretofore been
so healthfuI and strong. apparently. that there
is now some speculation among officials in
gard 10 the rap id destruction Of the banks for
rner substantial standing. w. II. Bmball. who
WAS a national bank examiner in the govern
ment service from September, 1892 until May,
| 1899 when he accepted the presidency OF the
Seventh National. is regarded las the
above all Others" one official said. who best
knows the banking methods in New York and
the last expected to fail in conducting
profitable banking business.
On February 4, just before the greatest ma
tional bank statement recorded in the history
OF this country summarized. the individual
deposits account OF the Seventh National Bank.
according 10 its statement of that date, amount
ed to Sc 75S 700. which was Is per cent of the
total New-York City deposits at that time made
ND from the accounts of the forty-four national
banks in that city. The undivided profits less
expenses and taxes. were then shown TO be
ss4 4O6 while the capital stock at that time
was less than S2SOO00 The rate of the banks
n,oa, therefore. was indicated TO be 80
per cent
Another feature which signifed the strength
NJ the bank is the fact that on February ap-
nlcation was made TO Controller Dawes TO per-
nit an increase of the capital stock to S5OO,oO.
The capital increased by instruments from
time TO time and only to-day the application
was approved, and a statement was issued GER
tifying that the Seventies capital had been in
creased TO the figure named. On February the
circulation outstanding amounted 10 100000.
which was secured By fund OF nearly $1,000

600 for Clearing House exchanges. and there
was on deposit In the bank $3.50 900 in bonds
which exceeded the amount of United States de-
posits of S2lO3S3 by $30,617. The government
deposits are therefore perfectly safe Whatever
equity there may be ut the present time in the
banks bonds above the circulation and the sum
due to the United States disbursing officer will
be divided among the creditors This
amounted on February to less than $4,000
From a comparison of the banks statements
for February t. April p and June 22, there has
been little change in its circulation, while the
amount due TO trust companies and savings
banks and the fl nd for the Clearing House
changes have greatly decreased. These accounts
are, however, subject TO fluctuations.
