Bank Wrecking.
rom the Philadelphia Recort


A period of depressed business is due to
deeper and wider causes than the failure
of a few financial institutions. matter
how important they may be. But there has
often been an intimate relation between
moral bankruptcy and financial disasters
that have stopped credit. and therefore
stopped business for a time; for modern
methods of business involve the trust of
man in man. and when that trust is shaken
business is momentarily stopped. The re-
cent occurrence of several bank suspensions
inevitably suggests the question whether
they will be repeated till credit shall be
shaken The immediate occasion - for. the
panic of ten years ago was the collapse of
a large concern that had but just paid a
dividend. which must have been paid out
of capital In order to sustain a tremen-
dous speculation in its shares. This was
not defalcation, but 1T was not a strictly
honest transaction. The panic of 1884 was
occasioned by criminal actions that sent
two prominent financiers to the state
prison. The moral elements connected with
the panic of 1873 were more generally diff
fused through the community.
