ments and interviews made public

A. Barton Hepburn, president of the
Chase National bank. said: THE use
of cleaning house certificates cannot
be avoided in any exigency at the

CERTIFICATE EXPLAINED.
Will Be Received In Payment of Bal
ances of Five Thousand Dollars.


New York. Oct. 29.-The feeling
house certificates will be received in
payment of laborers for $4,000 from
any member of the Clearing House
association. On the surrender of
certificate by depositing banks the
clearing house committee will endorse
the amount as payment on the OBJ
legations Of said bank and surrender
a proportionate share of the collateral
securities held hereunder. This was
the form as used in 1893
At that time the certificates were
of great benefit, and aided materially
in clearing the very serious situation
then existing. In this connection
New York broker commended the &C.
ton of the committee in accepting
them for the protection of supplies of
cash. They foresee that this will
greatly save the strain at outside
points, permitting them to use the GER
tificateS in place Of cash, and also
having the salutary effect of putting
down the drain of outside centers
upon New York When New York

system became almost general
throughout the country and every
where the result was beneficial.
One prominent New York banker
pointed out that it could not be
brought to the attention of the coun.
try at large too strongly that the pres
ent situation is dealing solely with the
supplies of currency, and that neither
the business credit of the nation nor
it's Industrial and agricultural prosper
ity is affected

AN EXTRAORDINARY SESSION

The call of Governor Blanchard con-
vcninp the General Assembly IN extra
sessions to consider reforms demanded
by the people. was shocking surprise
to the Sandersites and the Bosses, when
given publicity in the Sunday morning
papers.
So; unexpected and startling was this
call that the breath OF the Bosses and
the leaders Of the Sandersites was, in a
fpurativc sense, fairly taken away.
They were as dared and. for the mo-
ment as paralyzei as if shocked by a
bolt of lightning from a cloudless sum-
mer sky.

bling to the very marrow of the bone.
1t is notable that as the old gang of
spoilers and grafters, the old leecfes
and barnacles recover, they are pretend
ing to be IN line with the suggestions

breath they criticise and condemn the
Governor for having called the Legisla-
ture in an extra session to do that which
they declare should have been left to the
Legislature which is to be elected by the
people and will be empowered 10 act
