DecIares-PeopIc's Wealth
Not Affected.

New York-Leslle M. Shaw, for.
merly secretary of the treasury.
now president of the Carnegie Trust
company, has given out the follow
ing interview on the present financial
and Industrial conditions:
N"Our farms produce more than So
500, 000. 900 per annum, and the pros.
pect is good for an average crop. Our
mines yield more than $1,000, Q00, 600
and our forests more than 81, 900, 000,-
900. And neither of these sources Of
wealth has been exhausted. The out.
put of our factories, in other than
food products, is approximately $12,-
600, 000, 900, and nc fires have been ex-
tinguished,
1.-THE railways earn more than ST.
000, 600, 900, and they are all in sue
cessful operation. The payrolls of our
factories and railways aggregate APP
proximately $500, 10000 and the
scale of wages has not been reduced.
Wealth Not Affected.
"In other words, the real sources
of the pople's wealth have not yet
been affected and the ability of indus
trial concerns to pay dividends is not
measured by the market price of their
stocks.
Logical reasons for serious condi-
lions are therefore wanting. Psyche.
logical reasons are never wanting.
IF l Judge correctly, the people
will have exactly what they expect. II
those who have money in the banks
withdraw it and lock it up; if the
banks refuse to grant accommoda-
tions, and if the consuming public de-
clines to place orders, then we viii
very soon witness the effects.
LET those who think that times of
disaster fellow each other at regular
intervals bear in mind that this coun-
try has never yet experienced a period
of severe depression that was not
traceable to financial or economic agt-
tation or legislation, and usually to
both.
Overwhelming Odds.
"In 1898, the redemption of green
backs in silver instead of gold was
openly advocated; the party in power
was under promise to remove the pro-
tective tariff from u industries and
the free coinage of silver at the ratio
of 16 to / vas championed by promi-
nent memners of both parties. The
country might have survived any one
of these sources of alarm, bat it could
not survive all three.
"At this time no one questions our
financial system, and the tariff will
not be touched for at least eighteen
months.
Some checks in the speed at which
we are going is most desirable, and
the checking process probably has be
gun. 1t will now require a fair meas
ure of confidence and courage to pre-
vent undue retardment, in our indus
tries. Capital can not be forced into
activity, hut it can be forced out Of
activity. | have never seen the time
when universal sanity vas more es-
sential to our well-being."
