been stopped, should die. They
would see a disaster coming on the
commercial body like the disaster on
the human body and their gold hoard
ed in theirhands would become dross
or depreciate intellectually. The hnan-
cial system of circulation of money
through banks is today the founda-
ton of American business life. and
the American people expect apparent
ly that business will go on without
that system. They have knocked the
foundation out from under the house
as far as they could, and If the op-
portunity was afforded the last dollar
would be withdrawn from circula-
ton. It is as II a few persons own
ing furniture in a magnificent sky
scraper would see the building col
lapse IL they only could save their
trinkets. And the cash so far with
drawn is but trinket compared with
the loss that would result should the
whole commercial body go down.
: America has made strides because
its citizens loaned their wealth out
through the banks to others who are
developing its resources, and now,
after the borrowers are running full
blast. the lenders, who are the bank
depositors, grow scared and demand
their money. The fine manufactur-
ing plants must close because the
money thew borrowed from the bank
depositors has been recalled, the rail
roads and other industrials must cur,
tail operations from the same cause,
and If the demand for their money
continues from the bank depositors,
all will be forced to close, throwing

and stopping effectually the produc-
ton of wealth.
Two Solutions.
There are two solutions OF the
present panic. If the people who
have money, the life blood of COM
merce. will put Il in bank where the
manufacturing plants and railroads
can borrow it to operate with, ON
good security, Of course, business will
resume its natural tone, because the
financial system will begin to oper-
ate. The other solution is CONNER
cial death. Followed 1t is true in the
course of time by resuscitation but
the process will be painful and the
suffering will be frightful. To con-
tinue TO hoard cash and fhe moment
the banks give out any currency, TO
hoard that too, will result in drain
ing the veins of commerce of its blood
and the whole body will die.

Of the investing public. AS soon as
the people get frightened, according
- Mr.. Hill, they quit buying railroad
securities, thus keeping money out
of the reach OF the carriers, whose
policy, he declared, was to use the
peoples money for the benefit OF the
people.
People Must Pay for Lines.
Mr.. Hill said American railroads
carry passengers and freight cheaper
than those Of any other country and
paid more returns on their capitalize
alton. But the country, he said,
needed more "avenuesc of commerce
about 1850 100000 worth a

the money they could not get the ex-
tensions OF rail lines. which, he said,
would do more for the country than
anything else.
The man who built the Great
Northern line said the railroad men
OF this country had right to be
proud of their record and to resent
the criticism of them based on
naught but ignorance.
Conflscatory legislation, Mr.. Hill
said. existed in 10 resent enact

Regulation OF carriers, said Mr.
Hill, was proper and right, provided
II was of the right kind. The rights
Of the carriers. he asserted, must be
respected and their existence mus
not be jeopardized through legisla
tive folly.
In closing his speech Mr.. Hill
said:
Before we again realize favor
ing disposition to invest there mus
be a different temper. a larger view
OF justice, a better appreciation Of
what the railroads of the United
States have done and are doing, as
compared with those OF the rest o.

X. G 3. Beers Cotton Letter to C. H
Cotfrsn. Manaoer


New Orleans, February 11-There was
an opening of exhaust valves at Liverpool
today, all the steam of last week being
permitted to escape when least expected.
Futures in English market were due
about poists higher than close of last
Saturday, but decided falling off in the
demand for spot cotton there, sales only
5000 for the day at a decline of points,
discouraged longs who had contemplated
crowding shorts before March notice day,
not only al Liverpool, but in America
as well. 1t is possible that it was dis
covered that the outstanding interest on
the short side of the market was not
as large as generally supposed, as the
sudden drop in values abroad denoted a
desire on the part of longs to liquidate
just as quickly as possible.
Official trade reports from England do
not corroborate reports in circulation con-
corning the probability Of consumption by
British mills to be ever 50 much greater
this season than ever before. According
to British board of trade returns ex-
ports of yarns during the month of Jan
nary were 100000 pounds against 49,
551 900 last year, and of cloths of $1,000 900
yards against OIL 900, 600 n year ago. Man
chester trade cable was fairly good in
so far as business with india, South
America, etc, are concerned but China
remains as dormant as ever, which stag
nation Is noted in trade with China in
the United States also.
