PRouTY ON THE PANIC.

The Hon. c. A. Prouty of Vermont
who, by the way, has just been reap
pointed by the president as member OF
the interstate Commerce commission
addressed a bankers banquet at New
York city last week. Mr.. Prouty always
has faculty of speaking right out, and
he handed the New York bankers few
warm ones on the subject of the recent
panic that must have made their ears
Jingle. He said
s'rhe present condition OF things is
very properly called panic, an unreason-
ing aud groundless fear. I don't know
much about it, but as far as | can see it
right here in New York. The
people here in New York made up their
minds that their money in your banks
would be safer if they took 1t out and put
it in their pockets, and the rest OF the
country had to suffer-" Everybody
seemed to enjoy this as good joke
"Yes, / say just that-the rest of the
country had to. suffer. 1 was in Denver
when your banks went on the clearing
house basis. 1t came like thunderb bolt
out of clear sky. The reserves of the
banks of the city of Denver we're so per
cent, and yet every bank in the city, be-
cause of your action here, had to go on
the same basis"
Someone remarked at this point, ssYes,
that was just the trouble" Prouty
came back with g Yes, sthat wa, just the
trouble. II they gave you all the money
they had You would invest it in stocks"
Prouty went on to rap New York as
follows:-
"This metropolis of yours is SO great
and so all sufficient unto itself that you
sometimes forget that there is anything
else in the country. l Sometimes think
that the business men of New York know
less about the true sentiments of the peo-
pie of the United States than any other
class of men. Now these questions, my
friends, are not to be settled by bankers
and economists and business men who sit
around tables like this. They are to be
settled by men who do not own low cut
vests and who seldom eat at banquets. /
have seen. these men, and / know how
they feel. They are intelligent and they
are honest, and they have thought more
about this subject than you have. They
want to do what is right, but right or
wrong they want the thing done and
they are going to see it done whether you
want it or not.''
In regard to the presidents railroad
policy he said:-

United States has been headstrong in this

TIE expected announcement from Pres
ident Roosevelt concerning his third term
candidacy came last week. 1t was
square and unequivocaI, and leaves no
room for doubs. He simply repeats his
Remuneration made on election eve three
years ago and says that he has not and
viii not change his attitude. In view of
the pressing movement in his favor in
many parts of the country, it was entirely
proper for the president to speak. His
utterance removes him absolutely from
the field. He can say no mere than he
has said. His definite withdrawal leaves
the contest for the nomination open to
the other candidates without prejudice.
The friends of Hughes, Taft, Knox, Fair
banks, Cortelyou, Cannon, La Toilette
and any and all other possibilities will
now know what to depend on, with the
chance of Roosevelt's bearing off the palm
definitely removed. The country will ap-
plaud the president for his strict adhe-
renee to his former declaration, however
much it may disappoint the many who
would like to have him run again. Not
all presidents have found it necessary to
decline a third term; still fewer have had
to speak twice.

The New England Farmer, the old

lieves that the policy of keeping Vermont
money at home is popular and wise one.
1t says: The Lamoille County Savings

dent, is run upon wise principle, one
which the farmers who patronizc it would
do well to apply in their general business

ing its money at home. That its policy
is profitable as well as popular one is in
dictated by the fact that it is about to pay
per cent interest on deposits left with it

When the fireman on the eoDstruction
of the dam across the Connecticut river,
five miles from Brattleboro, opened the
drafts and put fresh fuel under his Doll
ers Saturday morning, be did not know
that another workman, James Eagsn, OF
Boston was asleep over the boilers.
About 10 o'clock he was startled upon
hearing groans issuing from overhead
He climbed up to horizontal frame
work about IS inches above the boiler
and there he saw Eagan in the agonies OF
death. The atmosphere was sunocating
and the temperature had become so ex-
tremely hot that no person could have
lived there long. The fireman removed
Eagan as soon as possible, but the unfof-
tunate man died within few minutes
afterward.
Eagan went to Hinsdale, n. H., the
previous night and it is alleged he pro-
cured liquor there. On his return to the
dam he found the gate footbridge across
the river locked. Being unable to reach
his quarters on the Vermont side OF the
river he went into the boiler house on the
New Hampshire side, climbed up over the
two 50-norsepower boilers and fell asleep
on the framework, which is used for dry
ing out the rope rigging. The nres al
that time were banked so the beat was
not excessive, but when Eagan was found
the temperature was probably as high as
IT'S degrees. "A physician who examined
Eagan said death was due to heart dis
ease, caused by the heat and alcohol.
