SMALL CHANGE DEMAND.
Call for Silver an Evidence of Returning
Prosperity.
rFrnm The Tribune Bureau.

from The Tribune Bureau.I
washington, Oct 25.-Frank A Leach. Director
Of the Mint finds evidences OF returning prosperity
In the demand on the Treasury for subsidiary sill
YER He thinks 1t is important sign. and FUR
nished to-day interesting facts on the subject
while the increase Of clearing house receipts at
the various financial and commercial centres OF the
country, the very great reduction of the number OF
idle freight cars and the increasing orders for
structural steel features OF our business life
pointed out as indications Of a return OF CONNER
cal prosperity he said. there is another very in
teresting evidence of the fact with which pub
lio is not so familiar, and that is the demand on
the public Treasury for subsidiary silver, silver
coins OF the denominations OF halves quarters and
drnes-the coins so necessary for change in trade.
when the effects of the panic Of last year began
TO be felt with the contraction OF business and
reduction Of payroIls IN manufactures that fol-
lowed. there once began accumulation OF sub
sdiary coin In the public Treasury. For nearly two
years prior TO this time all the available energy OF
the United States minis devoted to coming
money Of these small denominations without at
any time being able to get any considerable amount
ahead.
when the accumulation IN the Treasury began
there only 100000 in subsidiary coins hand,
and from this amount late in 1907 the stock hand
steadily grew until 1t reached approximately
s24 10000 IN August OF this year

lars of. discarded money, for there was use for
It trade contracted. and 1t stored away IN
Uncle Sans strong box as useless, as the Idle cars
the side tracks of the railroads. For the
banks and. business men found themselves with
more OF this kind OF coin hand than was needed.
the surplus was sent to the Treasury in exchange
for currency that could be moro conveniently held
or used.
when this extreme height OF the innowing tide
of subsidiary coin was reached the ebo flow imme-
diately started: rather slowly at first, out hy ths
middle of September the outward current was re-
markedly strong. Trade revtving The har-
vest OF the incoming crops and increasing CONNER
cial transactions were requiring greater amount
OF small or silver coins for change.
1.-THE following figures from the records OF the
public Treasurer show the outward movement for
the last five weeks compared with the Same period
In the previous YEAR.

HONEY AND RUSTNEcs

Last week recorded the highest prices for Sc
curties since May, 1907, the average of the sixty
most active railways rising above $685. and
making a striking comparison with the average
Of $50 at the close of the same week last year.
There was similar rise IN industrial stocks and
still more in traction properties. No particular
event can be mentioned as the cause for new
levels. the market uniformly strong.
Prominent operators are discounting the result
of the election at rate that threatens to pro-
duce the customary decline upon the actual &C.
currence. and 1t is not only for political effect
that wagers are being made that prices viii close
lower the day after Mr.. Taft's election. 1t IS
not likely that any large number Of outside
buyers will appear in the Stock Exchange on
November to absorb the enormous load Of
securities that being accumulated for that
purpose while there will be considerable liquida-
ton to secure profits in sight by spectators for
a quick turn. Subsequently, the general pub
lie Will take more interest than 1t has during
the last year, and for this demand the market
has been artiflcially advanced but there is no
reason to anticipate anything like a boom i'm
mediately after the political horizon has cleared.
Surplus reserves Of the associated banks have
diminished about one-half during the last two
months, chiefly through loan expansion; but
there Is still very heavy excess above legal
requirements, and deposits ara about $4,000 900
larger than loans, while year ago there
balance on the other side of almost as much.
Money is still abnormally cheap. call loans being
freely offered at Ia per cent, and even long
periods the quotation for time money Stock
Exchange collateral is 3h per cent Interior
Withdrawals not as large as usual at this
time and daily Treasury balances make no
drain on the market, Government disbursements

UNANSWERED.

It was profusely announced, apparently on
the highest authority, that Mr.. Bryan WOULD
promptly answer the Presidents searching IN
Quiry concerning the nature and extent or the
understanding between Mr. Bryan and MT.
Gompers as to the meaning Of the injunction
plank adopted by the Democratic National Con-
venton. Mr.. Gompers Is on record as declaring
that nothing less than the abolition as prop
erty right of the right to carry on business OF
any particular kind at any particular pIace
and the Iegalization Of the blacklist and second
airy boycott is satisfactory to labor. Mr.. Com
pers is also OF. record as declaring that the Den
yer convention 'made our labor demands the
demands of the Democratic party" Does Mr.
Bryan indorse Mr.. Gompers's demands In the
name Of labor and ratffy Mr.. Gomperss inter
probation of the Democratic platform?
That is the question which the voters want
Mr.. Bryan to answer and are entitled TO nave
him answer. He has not answered It, or come
anywhere near doing so in any speech which he
has made since the Presidents letter to Senator
Knox was published. He has merely MADE
pretence Of answering it-a tricky and shabpy
pretence.

The Prohibition candidate for President,
Eugene w. Chain, makes this momentous pre-
diction: r'-.--..

vember Will never another candidate for
President --,-.---r .-.-.--.-.- --- go.
If Mr. Chain is a real prophet. Mr.. Bryan
cannot be the Democratic candidate for Prest-
dent in 1912. Yet party designations are Of
small consequence to him, since he has
already run once as an Anti-Imperialist twice
as a Populist, twice as a Silver Republican and
three times as a Democrat Names and emblems

FRIGHT THOUGH RADICAL"
From The Boston Journal.


The business has faith IN Taft He believes
the Republican candidate for President to be pro-
greSsive. reasonable. right though radical. He
does hesitate to declare his conviction that
der Taft things will in the right direction
And what the business thinks Is worthy OF the
most serious consideration. Upon the prosperity
OF the business man depends not only the welfare
OF the worker but the success Of a host OF Incl
dental enterprises, mostly educa tonaI and philan
thropic which have much to do with the progress
of civilization

While FIoke Smith has given $3.50 to the Demo

silence of Little Joe" Brown remains unbroken.
Charleston News and Courier.
Governor elect Brown only reflects the feelings
and wishes OF the Georgia Democrats who ele-
waited him to Office in his attitude OF shyness
and self absorption. Besides. In Thomas E
Watson and Sidney Calhoun Tapp Georgia has
two Presidential candidates OF her own. each Of

A DEEPENING CONVICTION.

From The Philadelphia North American.
It is not pleasant to be compelled to question the
sincerity Of the man whom we have admired as a
pure and high minded patriot, even when we op-
posed him. Yet. much as he excels Taft as a cam
paigner. his recent actions and utterances almost
compel belief that there Is a vein OF weakness in
Mr.. Bryan's nature which We had not suspected
There IS every indication that that conviction Is
deepening IN the minds OF the mass Of the people
And we think II well for the country that We are
able to say. as the result Of observation and IN
vesttgation. free from bias partsanship as IS
humanity possible, that the signs at this time
strongly indicate the election of Taft by substan-
tial majorities In the larger number OF the de-
batable states

business. The last would paralyzs enterprise and

Has the Chicago band which played at the

NATIONAL CAMPAIGN COMMENT.

From The Rochester Democrat and Chronicle

win him any electoral votes there, but his broad
minded, statesmanlike course in giving his time to
