The Capture Of Washington.

This is the anniversary of the first and
only foreign invasion of the national
capital. August "a, 1914, British troops
defeated American forces at Bladensburg
and marched on'to occupy Washington.
They. set fire to the Capitol. the White
House and other public buildings, doing
great damage to the structures. and es-
pecially to their contents The President
and his family fed into Virginia. Citi-
zensT were maltreated, and there were
numerous encounters, which caused a
veritable state of panic for many hours.
Then the enemy departed. apparently
satisfied that they had dispersed the gov
ernment and crippled the federation OF
states.
1t Is not believed by the American peo-
pie that Washington will ever again be
entered by a hostile foreign force. There
Is little apprehension Of a war with q
European power growing out of any con-
ceivable subject OF contention. Further
more. even in such an unlikely event, it
is regarded as most improbable that the
enemy would attempt so hazardous an
enterprise as a land invasion aimed at
the capital The potential military re-
sources of this country are enormous. and
its capacity for quick response to the
call to arms and it's ability to maintain
itself vigorously on the sea are well
understood abroad. Furthermore even
should there be a war, and should the
enemy break through the naval line and
reach the coast and pass the coast de-
fenses. the first objective of such a ma
neuver. would unauestionably be, not
Washington. but New York. 1t would
presumably be the purpose of the foe to
infict the greatest possible damage upon
the United States within the least time,
and there is no place relatively exposed
to swift attack where so much wealth
Is concentrated as in the largest city of
the hemisphere.
Comparisons between conditions in 1914
and in 1907 are futile Then the govern
ment was weak and struggling with in

lating In consequence Of the March slump
the calls for loans have resulted in ten
dency toward liquidation which has had
a somewhat demoralizing effect upon the
security price list. In addition to the money
drain from the west there Is a demand from
Europe for gold to liquidate the debts owed
there by Americans on stock purchasing ac-
counts and for borrowed funds. 1t is un-
deniabie that the anti-corporation move
ments of the past few months have some
what shaken European faith in our railroad
and Industrial securities. and steady call
for funds has resulted. The chief danger
apprehended by finanoiers this summer has
been that there might come, between these
two pulls on the New York banks. break
ing strain which they could not withstand
The Treasury relief Is therefore the more
to be welcomed this year than usual.
1t Is evidently not the Secretary's policy
to place the funds chiefly In New York.
The Initial shipments of money under the
arrangement were to San Francisco and
Chicago. This distribution. continued
throughout the period of greatest demand
for crop-moving funds. will materially less
en- the drain upon New York and will at
the same time serve to prevent speculative
movements in that city based upon the
metropolitan banks. AS a further precau-
ton. against the encouragement of .specu-
lative activity 1t is to be the policy of the
department not to announce in advance the
sums to be freed.
This annual distribution of federal funds
at the time of heaviest need demonstrates
forcibly the fact that the country is doing
business on the basis of an inadequate sup
ply of money. Its gold stock is at present
only about one-tenth of the total volume
of money of trade, although greatly increas-
ed in recent years. That stock can not be
enlarged save by the discovery and develop
ment of rich deposits of gold within the
United States. 1t can not be purchased
abroad. save by exchange of gold for gold.
Lacking the increase in the proportion.
now so small as to be unsafe in times of
stress the only alternative. as long as
public confidence in the credit system ts
shaken. is to curtail the volume of busi-
ness. Such an alternative spells depression
and distress. 1t Is obviously Secretary Cor
telyou's effort to prevent calamity by restor-
ing confidence and strengthening credit.
Evening star., 1907-08-24
Advancing Federal Funds.

Secretary Cortelyous announcement that
he will relieve the money market by means
OF a series OF weekly deposits of public
funds in national banks should serve TO
steady the situation and render less likely
a demoralizing stringency when the annual
westward movement of cash occurs. It. is
especially reassuring for the Secretary to
declare the policy of the governmnt in this
respect at this time when there is genuine
anxiety regarding the ability of the banks
10 meet the demands upon them in crop
moving time.
I 1t has been estimated that 1t would be
necessary for the government to advance
eLs much as S45.0O00OO between now and
the end OF September in order to prevent
trouble. Thus far no announcement has
been made regarding the amount of the de-
lposlts to be made by Mr. Cortelyou. but II
Is to be assumed that, having full knowl-
edge OF the state of the currency, he in.
tends to keep pace with the prospective re-
QulreEnents.
The crop-moving demands for cash come
annually from the west and ultimately are
chiefly felt by the New York banks. These
banks, In anticipation of the call upon then
FOR funds, usually begin to gather in their
iresources several weeks In advance. This
year. with the stock market weak and vacil
