John Tenant Shot.

Since the last issue we have been
able to secure word from Goldfield
to the extent of the injuries re-
ceived by John Tenant, former
Paonia citizen.
On the evening of Nov. 5th, p.
II. Mullaney and Vincent St. John,
both leaders in the Western Fed
Grafton of Miners at Goldheld, met
and engaged in quarrel over
matters connected with the FEEDER
alton, and after few angry words
Mullaney drew a gun and fired
three shots. The first one struck
John Tennant in the left leg just
above the knee and shattered tie
bone to such an extent that
amputation was necessary, the
other two struck St. John in the
arm and Dan Kelly another by
stander in the abdomen. Mr.. Ten
nant was standing over half a
block away at the time of the
shooting, and was unaware of the
trouble until the shooting. He
was removed to the Miners Hos

tated above the knee. In a letter

Whatever change occurs now will
be for the better. Apparently we
are now all in the same boat with
New York and as her condition
improves ours will mend. Two
great factors have combined to
force the troubles OF New York
on the rest OF the country. One
was the fact that the rest of the
country had several hundred mil
lion dollars in New York banks
which had united in refusing to
pay il out. The other was that
the crop moving period having
arrived. western and southern
banks. unable to get their money
from New York. were getting it
from the other reserve centers.
Chicago being the chief. With
thirty or forty million dollars tied
up in New York. Chicago could
not meet the strain and not only
suspended as New York had done,
the making OF case payments. but
advised and forced the other
cities of the west to do the same.
The effect will be to keep money
in the banks. TO expand the cur
rency by the injection of certified
checks. CASHIERS checks and
clearing house certificates. and to
give the country time to regain
its financial equilibrium"
In the midst of this time of
plenty everyone is asking. "How
did it happenl" The World
Herald throws some light upon
the situation IN this way:-"The
four great banking institutions in
New York belong to what is
known as the Standard OIL crowd.
They are the National City bank.
with $l93,9OO.OO0 deposits; the
National Bank of Commerce, with
$l45. 100000 deposits; the First
National with $lO7 100000 and
the Park National with 500. 500.
900. Then there are eight great
trust companies which are banks
that do banking business, prac-
tioally without reserve. They are
the Farmers Loan and Trust COM
pany. with SIS. 100000 deposits;
the Knickcrbocksr. with S70.000.-
900; the Central with S67 600. 900;
the United States with $65, 900, 600;
the Trust Company of America.
with SOL 900, 900; the Union Trust
company. with S5S,0O0.000; the
New York Guarantee and Morton.
with $59, 9,000,000 each. In those
institutions was concentrated al
most exactly 81 l,000.000.0O0 and
there was where the trouble be-
gan. The trust companies were
competitors of these and other

THE SPECTATORS PANIC.

The panic broke with full force
on the whole country Monday,
October IS. On Sunday bankers
conferences were held in every
town in the United States. In
order to prevent runs on banks
the various financial institutions
in different cities adopted the
clearing house certificate plan
which plan was devised to keep
business moving without requir-
ing the banks to pay out all of
their cash on hand. Cash pay
ments were everywhere suspended
although checks were honored to
the extent of small per cent. of
the individuals deposit. The
newspaper dispatches of the day
told this story:-"New York
bankers have engaged about Si2.
100000 in gold in Europe. Bank
'ers' Trust company. of Kansas
City. closed because denied the
privilege of issuing clearing house
certificates. Has deposits OF $500.
0OO. All the banks in Oklahoma
and Indian Territory closed for .
week by holiday proclamation of
governor because unable to get
cash from Kansas City and St
Louis banks. Duluth grain mar
ket suspended and elevators ad-
vised not TO buy grain. Wheat
broke four cents at Chicago and
~ at New York and all grain
weak. Runs continue on two
trust companies and two small
banks at New York. New York
stock market opened at an ad-
vance"
In an editorial entitled "A Bank
Situation Without Precedent"
the Omaha World Herald says
"In the midst of great prosperity
several thousand of the leading
banks of the United States yes
;erday suspended cash payments.
They had hundreds of millions of
dollars in their vaults belonging
TO their dcpositors. but they re-
fused to pay il out. This occurred
all over the United States and it
came with a suddcness which took
everybody by surprise, including
the bankers themselves. For such
an occurrence there is no parallel
in history and no warrant in law.
Unquestionably the first effect of
such a performance is shock
which will jar the business world
from center to circumference.
Everyone will feel it and few will
escape damage. There is. however.
some satisfaction in the reflection
that sach universal and such an
acute attack can not last long.
