Jay Cooke’s Crash.
From the New York Herald.
IN JAY COOKE'S OFFICE.
A Herald reporter was early in the office of
the banking house of Jay Cooke & Co., and
the scene was anything but an encouraging
one, particularly to the unfortunate people
who had money invested in the institution,
and some of whom stood disconsolately
around in the office aud, like Micawher, “wait
ing for something to turn up.” From the ap
pearance of the clerks and higher employees
of the establishment it was quite evident that
nothing would turn up, and that the house
had suffered a reverse from which recovery
was, for the time being, at all event’s, im
possible.
While waiting lor somebody belonging to
the firm to make some statement, the report
er was greatly interested by an emblazoned
sign which stood over the desk of one of the
managers of the firm. It seemed at the time
bitter in its irony, and ran thus:
; A sure’ AND safe' INVESTMENT. :
HUY
• NORTHERN PACIFIC 7-39 BONDS. :
AS GOOD AS GONERNA1 ENTS. :
* Secured by Mortgages and by Land!
Grants. :
In view of tbe circumstances, this sign was
infinitely amusing. Everybody in the office
was running down this unfortunate road.
“Didn’t they get speakers and writers to
prate about the beauties of the road? ” said
one. “You couldn’t go anywhere without
S£e:ng something about the darned road.
This firm here used to advertise that it was a
better payment than government bonds, and
just as safe. Nothing would do but that they
should advise people of spare means to in
vest in it, and that is the consequence ? Yon
can hardly find a clergyman or a teacher or a
farmer in the country who doesn’t have some
interest in Northern Pacific, und yet what
did it all mean? The railroad is unable to
pay its debts, and the bu st of this house
knocks it sky-high.”
Everybody’s tongue was wagging just as bad
as it could against Northern Pacific, and some
people did not hesitate to say that Jay Cooke
had not done the “square” thing in all this
matter.
For a long time the reporter found that the
firm would not make
A STATEMENT
about their difficulty, but finally he was invit
ed into Mr. F. O. French’s private office. Mr.
French is a member of the New' York firm,
and took things with an easo which only
financiers can acquire from long habit. One
would have thought that nothing in the!
world had happened to disturb tho serenity of
Mr. French. Being both seated, the follow
ing interview took place:
Reporter—I want to ask j’on nothing but
what you are willing to make public.
Mr. French—Well, you see it is difficult just
at present to say anything. Wo don’t know
where we stand. We only know one thing—
that we have failed.
Reporter—But you can state, no doubt, the
reasons which immediately brought about the
failure ?
Mr. French—The house was perfectly sol
vent in itself, but the failure is due to a large
loan which was made to the Northern Pacific
Railroad about a year ago, and which has
never been paid. This large sum of money
not being paid in, we found, on examination
of our accounts—that it was useless any long
er to continue, that stoppage was much the
wiser plan—and so we suspended. The step
was taken on mature consideration, and we
were not absolutely precipitated into the ne
cessity of adopting it.
Reporter—It is not tree then that your re
fusal to pay some drafts of the Northern Pa-
cifie Railroad this morning caused your sus
pension ?
Mr. French—Certainly not. Some drafts
for trivial sums may have been presented, but
this must have been after tbe failure, aDd, of
course, we refused to cash them, as we would
have done with any others, and did with a
great many.
Reporter—Can you give me no statement of
your liabilities and monetary standing ?
Mr. French—Monetary standing ! We, of
course, have none now; and, as to tho liabili
ties, why, we have not been able to make our
accounts up sufficiently at the present early
hour. To-morrow we shall, no doubt, make
some statement. However, if you come in
late in the afternoon, we shall probably have
more to give the Herald.
STATEMENT OF THE BANKING HOUSE. |
The reporter then left the office, but re
turned, as invited, later in the day. He was
introduced to a room on the second floor of
the bank, where were two members of the
firm—Mr. H. C. Fahnestock, the head of the
house in New York, and Mr. J. A. Garland.
The remaining member of the New York firm,
besides Mr. French, is Mr. Pitt Cooke, who is
on his way from Europe at present, and knows
nothing of the condition of his house.)
Mr. Fahnestock handed the followin'
ten statement to the reporter:

m.: ut: The immediate cause of the suspension
ci fay Cooko A Co. was tho large drawings

Bo.h houses have suffered a large drain upon
the r deposits in consequence of the uneasy
feoiing which has recently prevailed, and

ners in tbe Philadelphia house are W. G.

THE QUESTION OF RESUMPTION.
Reporter—Do you hope to resume?
Mr. Fashestock—We may; but I cannot tell.
Of course it will depend* on after-develop

A 1 COLISH PEOrHECY OF WAT; BY EDMOND ABOUT, j
A Paris letter to tbe World says:
“French ignorance seems to be endless. I 1
really did not think I ought to tease yon by
sending you such absurd declarations as this:
'A new restoration would be a new war. It j
wonld be a war waged by allied Italy and
German}* against dismembered France. There !
is no sort of doubt about this, for we know
on good authority that the day alter Count
de Chambord shall have acceded to his,
father’s throne and shall have assumed the
title of Ilenry V., King of France, he will
resolutely be asked by the Italian Govern
ment to acknowledge tho unity of Italy, and
that in the event of even an evasive refusal
war will immediately be declared, King Victor
Emmanuel having the Emperor William for j
an ally. This contingent alliance is no secret
for the Duke de Broglie. Minister of Foreign
Affairs. When I tell you this paragraph is
signed Edmond About, you will probably
smile aud exclaim, ‘What, the famous diplo
matist who, from the signature of the treaty 1
of peace down almost to yesterday warned
Franco in every tone; depend upon it, dear j
countrymen, those perfidious Germans are not

satisfy a much lets reasonable, intelligent,
judicious being than an Italian statesman.
If anybody pretends that Count do Chambord
is disposed to fly headlong into a war with
Italy, I would ask him to consider Bishop
Doupanloup of Orlean’s course. It is notori
ous there is not in France a man more enthu
siastically devoted to the Pope and to the
Pope-king than this prelate. His weaknesses
ares swell known as his strong points of
character—he is impulsive, obstinate, exag
gerated in his views, fall of the
prejudices and oarrow views of his order be
yond most wearers of the cassock. Very
well. Bishop Dnpanlonp, of Orleans, con
fesses publicly and privately that nothing can
be done to restore the Pope’s kingly rights.
This prelate not only has those weaknesses
which render him singularly unfit to decide
judiciously where his prejudices are interest
ed, but he is responsible for his own con
science. A king is responsible to the public;
ho has to reckon with his ministry and with
chambers; the other powers of Europe have a
voice in these international questions. It is
absurd to talk of a war with Italy for the
Pope. I spoke recently of contempt of prin
ciple shown by statesmen when in power. It
is not the only evil element which makes gov
ernment impossible in France. The igno
rance and bad faitb, the suppression of truths
and suggestions of falsehoods, which disgrace
the French press, combine to make free gov- 1
eminent impossible in this country.

Reporter—From this statement it appears,
then, Mr. Fahnestock, that the failure ol the
Philadelphia house is the cause of your down
fall’
Mr. Fahnestock—Y’es. For a long time
past the Philadelphia house has been drawing
upon ns for large sums, and all the money
went from the Philadelphia house to the cof
fers of the Northern Pacific Railroad. We
went on lending money in this manner until
we could stand it no longer. So we had to
suspend.
Reporter—Is it true that you have been
taking the money placed in your bank by de
positors to lend it to tho Philadelphia house,
which in turn loaned it to the Northern Pa
cific ?
Mr. Fahnestock—This is true—quite true.
Where else could we get tho money ?
Reporter—Can you tell me the snm which
you have taken of the money deposited in
your bank during the past two weeks to lend
it to the Northern Pacific ?
HEAVY LOANS TO THE NORTHERN PACIFIC.
Mr. Fahnestock—No; I cannot tell exactly
the sum, but it is very large.
Reporter—How long did you anticipate
this suspension ?
Mr. Fahnestock—We did not anticipate it
at all—that is, we thought we could get over
it, but since last Monday matters have grown
worse. The failures which have taken place
lately precipitated our danger, until we found
that we could stand it no longer.
Reporter—Have you any idea of your lia

Mr. Fahnestock—No; not as yet. We shall
prepare a statement as soon as possible, and

ry claims, had we in abundance; but all these
did not satisfy ns. Now, however, we have,
at last, struck a “claim” to Miss Flora, and
said claim is not for sale. With her we hope
to glide down life's ragged pathway in a pleas
ant way. With her, and with bot little else,
we propose to take a new departure; to com
mence anew the battle of life; to earn an hon
est livelihood oat of the Minor, to which we
most, hereafter, if poseible, devote more ex-
erntiating toil and thought; to labor for the
advancement and prosperity of Arizona, and
last, but not least, to trim our sails for a voy
age over the Kiver of Time to that land be
yond tho grave, where transplanted sonls live
in happiness forever and ever.
Tho October number of the Galaxay will
contain an article by ex-Secretary Wells, in
answer to Charles Francis Adams' enlogy on
Mr. Seward. Mr. Adams placed Mr. Seward
above Mr. Lincoln both ns n statesman and a
patriot. To this Mr. Wells takes exception,
and presents the other side of the picture.
The article is of great interest, and may con
tribute something to the “ truth of history.”
The late Alderman Sir David Solamons left
to the corporation of London £1,000 aud a

the aid renderel by that body in obtainirg
