ing lines in hauling wheat from all loading
places Of the State TO ports on Puget Sound.
The court holds that the cOmmission's

and as IL requires all cars OF connecting

have a tendency to restrain trade between

HETNZE TOUCHED Mine OFF
so GEO. n. ROBERTS DECLARES
az FINANCIAL CRISIS.


CHICAGO. Nov. N.-GeOrge e. Roberts.
president Of the Commercial National
Bank and formerly Director Of the Mint.
in an address before the City Club to-day
described the financial situation as a mine
laid each succeeding year by unavoidable
causes and this year touched OF by the
operations Of f. Augustus Heinze.
To the result Of Heinze's operations no
attributed the subsequent disturbance Of
commercial credit and the abnormal call
for money. He said:
This furry may happen at any time
under our present monetary system whom
business is unusually active and there
exists an unusual demand for money It
might have happened last fall or the fall
before. In both years conditions were
strained to the breaking point. In either
year II something had happened to startle
the public and to create a sudden demand
for money the experience Of this year would
have been held then. In other words /,
the mine has been ready and the train has
been laid zach year. but nobody touched
/ of as Mr.. Heinze did this year.
The only preventive Of such a generA
breakdown il by a reform in our monetary
system which will make IL possible to
effect a rapid increase in the supply Of
money. When people lose confidence in
pool credits and a to see Inc feel real
money the quickest way to quiet them
and the only way to avoid a general suns
pension OF payment is to v some way
Of quickly providing an authorized means
Of payment.
The shock has been great and we ann
O. pect to recover from IL IN a day. The
greatest factor in recovery is the gold
imports and at present they seem likely
TO continue. We rave no floating debt
abroad and the loose supply Of our stocks
has already come back. Investors over there
are not likely to sell our good stocks at
present prices.
$50 long as gold is needed it will come.
The situation il improving rapidly; the
banks are giving their full attention 10 a
resumption of crop moving. When that hs
completed inc money flows back to the
centres in payment of merchandise ac-
counts. then we will have Easy money
here"
A tabulated statement compiled from
1000 letters received by the Clearing House
Association in answer to its query regarding
the financial situation throughout the
country shows that there ia a general feel
ing in favor Of an early return TO a cash
basis. One-half Of the letters showed that
the banking reserves are normal; one-l
quarter reported balances above the norma
reserve; one-quarter reported balances be-
low the normal reserve. but the surplus on
reserve was more than equal to the deficit.
