Wildcat Banking Ended.

New York.-Wildcat Lanking il
ended forever in New York City. The
day is gone when a discretionary pool
can hide under the title Of trust com.
pany. Great as has been the disaster
OF the last week, the good results ac-
complished have been worth the trou
BILE. When the public mind returns to
basis of sanity again 1t will find the
banking situation sound. Banking
trust companies have been whipped
back into the clearing house. from
which they should never have been
permitted to escape. Stealing will u
called stealing hereafter in Wall streec
whether it is done on a small or large
scale.
II the savings of the people in the
banks have really been in danger. that
danger is passed. for discretionary pool
managers are more concerned now
about returning the plunder and escap-
ing jail than about anything else.
The use Of clearing house certia.
Gates was begun today and will con
tinue for several weeks, or until tho
situation is back to normal condition
Use Of the certificates in New York
will compel Boston, Pittsburg, Chicago
and st. Louis to use them also. The
result will be an additional initiation OF
the currency, until such times as these
certificates are retired with gold or
until the people return their money to
the banks.
One logical result will be an immedi-
ate advance OF the stock market. Banks
will not be compelled to be SO drastic
with borrowers. and forced liquidation
will be absent. The Improvement in
the market will be checked, however,
by the first reduction in the dividend
OF an important railroad, and after
that there should be heavy liquidation.
The breathing spell will last long
enough for the public to cool of and
realize that the country is rich enough
TO withstand the storm.

"Mr. Dear Mr.. Cortelyou-I congrat,
ulate you upon the admirable way n
which you have handled the recent
crisis. congratulate also those con
servative and substantial business men
who in this crisis have acted with such
wisdom and public spirit. BY their
action they did Invaluable service IN
checking the panic, which, beginning
as a matter Of speculation. was threat
ening to destroy the confidence and
credit necessary to the conduct OF le-
gitimate business. No one who con
siders calmly can question that the
underlying conditions which make up
our financial and our industrial well
being are essentially sound and homes.
Dishonest dealing and speculative en-
terprises are merely the occasional In
cidents of our real prosperity. The &C,
ton taken by you and by the business
men in question has been Of the Ut
most consequence, and has secured o.
portunity for the calm consideration
which must inevitably produce entire
confidence in our business conditions,
