Roosevelt AND The BANKERS

= =
At the Bankers Convention in New
York the performance of sentiment
was shown to be largely in favor of the
Republican ticket. Few men stick
closer to their business than bankers,
and. it may be added, very few under
stand more clearly the nature of their
business and its requirements. Not
many bankers are politicians, but the
vast majority are good citizens, and
from the nature of banking take an
extraordinary interest in everything
relating to the national finances. They
are familiar with hopes and profess
sions and rainbow chasing, because
they encounter them in their daily
transactions. and at times find it diff
cult to resist them. 1t is small won
der, therefore, that SO large a part
of them should favor the Republican
ticket. They see clearly that which
pie at all, and that is the imminent
danger OF entrusting the national
finances 10 Democratic administra-
ton.
The story of the dog which saw his
shadow in the water and dropped his
piece TO plunge for an imaginary slice
is very real story tC them. The
finances, the most important of all
public matters. are established on I:
gold basis SO long as the Republican
party remains in power That party
established the standard. and there is
no reasonable likelihood OF Tie part
undoing it's work. The people have
their slice OF bread firmly fixed be
tween their teeth and all they have
to do is to hold on to it. The prom
Use OF Parker TO maintain the gold
standard may be perfectly sincere or
it may belong TO those promises which

nCancnt conversion OF a person who
votes twice in succession for free s;!
vcr must always suggest possible
relapse, 2 danger which no ordinary
person in his private affairs will incur
when he has an absolute guarantee
OF safety without the peripatetic
fiuancier'S aid.
While Parker is a risk. his party is
a deadly peril. There IS no sort OF
excuse for any blindness with regard
to the Democrats. The action Of the
St I.Cuis convention. composed OF rep
resentatiEes of the party from all parts
Of the country, was decisive. There
was sprinilling of gold Democrats
there scarcely more than there was
in the conventions of 1896 and 1900.
They We're voted down two to one on a
very mild recognition of the gold
standard n other words. the Demo
cratic party OF the South and West is
still saturated with financial heresics.
What cnuld Parker or any other man
hope to accomplish with such d part.

VAN SCHAICK is ExONERATED
Steamboat Inspectors sHeport ON

New York, Sept. 24.-Capt Van
Schaick, who was blamed in the cor
oner's verdict for the Slocum disaster,
in which nearly 1000 persons lost their
lives last June, has been exonerated
by the local board OF steamboat in
spectors, which has just made its re-
port. The board finds that Capt.
Van Schaick beached the steamer at
the most available point. and all criti-
cism against him is wholly unmerited.
The board condemns the absence of
fire drills and "the incompetence of the
crew." and lays the blame upon the
master pilot. whose licenses are re-
voked The license of Chief Engineer
Conxlin also is revoked, while Second
Engineer Brandow is highly praised
for remaining at his post.

their usual meeting place. 1t 10 sug.
gested that the engineer Of No. 15 may
have thought that as he was gaining
time he could make Hodges about ons
and one-half miles beyond the wreck.
in time to pass No. IL there. instead
OF waiting for No. IL at Newmarket.
according to his orders.
The engineer of No. Is Is dead and
an unexplained problem is why the
conductor of No. Is did not stop the
train after It had passed Newmarket.
This may be brought out In the inves.
tigation, which Southern officials state
positively will be made at once. Both
the engineers and conductors were
men who have been in the service Of
this road and on this division for
twenty years or more. They had trav.
eled over this very track thousands Of
times.
Another theory given credence is
that Engineer Kane may have died
suddenly while sitting In his cab, and
before he reached Newmarket. and
thus accounted for him failing to stop
at that point. This. OF course. Is ter.
rlble to contemplate. and 1t will never
be known II such really was the case.
