HFAKST’S SUNDAY AMERICAN, ATLANTA, OA., SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 1913. REPUBLICANS HELD TO ANSWER FOR PANICS BY Twice Married, He Asks Two Divorces California Pfllr Had Two Ceremonies Performed and Now Seek a Double Divorce. Georgia Senator Declares the Doleful Speeches of His G. O. P. Colleagues Are Without Foundation—Sees a Reign of Plenty Throughout Nation. WASHINGTON. Sept. 6—Senator Hoke Smith spoke In the Senate to day In answer to the charge by the Republicans that the Wilson tariff bill of twenty years a«o contributed to the panic of 1893. Senator Smith showed that the panic of that year was due to several causes, one of which was the unset tled conditions growing out of the Baring failure. The high tariff law of that time had prevented Imports, thus reducing the receipts of the Government, while excessive appro priations exhausted the Treasury re sources. Ait the same time the silver purchase law had resulted In the ex portation of great quantities of gold and the platea had already been pre pared for an issue of Government bonds when Mr. Cleveland was Inau gurated on March 4, 1893. The worst of the panic of that year was over by September, and the Wil son tariff bill was not passed until the latter part of 1894. Senator Smith said: "Many times during this debate Senators upon the Republican side of the Chamber have made the claim that the passage of thi«* tariff bill will probably bring the countiy to financial distress. They have appealed to the history of tariff legislation to sustain the claim. They have sought to show that the reduction of tariff taxes will flood this country with for eign products, and they have cited the panic during the last administra tion of President Cleveland to sup port their suggestions of hard times as the result of tariff reduction. References Are Inaccurate. "As this bill Is to pass substantially In its present shape, it is well for the public to understand that the histor ical references made by Senators on f be Republican side are inaccurate, nd their fears utterly without foun dation. “Before dealing with the panic •om which this country suffered dur- r.g the last administration of Presi dent Cleveland, let me call attention to the fact that the tariff legislation of 1846 can justly be compared to the present bill. The reduction of the tariff taxes in 1846 was followed by unprecedented prosperity. So that we have a record of substantial tariff re duction accompanied with improve ment and progress upon all lines of activities. "One of the severest panics from which this country ever suffered was in 1873. At that time we had a high protective tariff with no suggestion of Its reduction, so that we have had a severe panic under a protective tar iff. In ail the woeful speeches made during this debate especial stress has been placed upon the panic during the last administration of President Cleveland, and with general terms, but without logic or reason, the ef fort has been made to connect the tariff legislation passed during his ad ministration with the panic and to charge tariff tax reduction as the cause of the panic. Panic Preceded Cleveland. "Mr. Cleveland was Inaugurated the second time on March 4, 1893. The panic was already In progress before his inauguration and before his elec tion. The extreme period of the panic was during the year 1893, and the Wilson bill reducing tariff taxes was not passed until during the last half of the vear 1894. No great in crease of importation followed the tariff reductions of 1894. Our tariff Importations were less In 1896 than they were In 1893, and less in 1896 than they were in 1892. The total im portations for those four years were as follows: 1893 $344,464,000 1895 731,162,000 1892 813,601,000 1896 759.694,000 "The panic of 1883, which began as I have already stated, prior to that time took place under a high pro tective tariff. If it is urged that in 1893 it was known that the Democrats contemplated reducing the tariff, and that this brought on the panic, we may well reply that a majority of the Senate was oppof^ed In 1893 to tariff legislation in full compliance with Democratic principles, and this fact was generally known. "To-day, a majority of both Houses of Congress are known to be thor oughly in accord with the Democratic principle of tariff reduction. Th«y are on the point of passing legislation, yet the business record of our coun try for the past twelve months has been one of prosperity and progress. "Our Imports for the past fiscal year amounted in value to $1,803,622,- 000, and our exports to $2,477,514,000. "It is true that just at this time business halts. Merchants are wait ing for the passage of this bill to know just what decreases of prices will be made on account of relief from tariff taxes. Barring this, the coun try is prosperous. By the first of September, 1893. the severest part of the panic of that period was pass ing. “It is easy to find causes for the panic of 1893. Those causes and the conditions of 1893 should be presented that all doubt, due to protestations of fear on the otjier side of this chamber, may be removed from the public mind, and evil consequences which might otherwise be caused from the doleful speeches we have heard be prevented. "The panic of 1893 was due to a number of causes. The large failure of Baring Brothers took place on November 20, 1890, and was followed with world-wide financial disturb ances. 1 he disturbance was so great in New York City that the banks were forced to i»9ue fifteen millions in Clearing House loan certificates, and loan rates ro*e in New York city at times to over lOb per cent, accom panied by numerous banking lallures, 1 his in itself affected conditions throughout the United States. *T here were, however, other agen cies at work here that necessitated serious trouble. "Mr. Cleveland closed his first term as President on March 4, 1889. Dur ing the first four years of his service the country enjoyed unprecedented prosperity. The Government, finan cially, was strong. The revenues largely exceeded trie appropriations. 1 he surplus in the Treasury was »u great that not only were those Gov ernment bonds retired which the law required, but Government bonds were brought upon the market, reducing the national debt, to prevent an ex cessive accumulation of money in the national treasury. "At the close of the administration of Mr. Cleveland on March 4, 1889. all liabilities had been paid and there was In the treasury a surplus of $180,000,000 and the golu reserve was ample. No Secretary of the Treasury ever turned over to his successor a treasury more fully supplied or a national credit more absolutely es tablished. Harrison Wiped Out Surplus. "Under President Harrison, who followed President Cleveland, Mr. Windom became Secretary of the Treasury, and the measures whlcn w r ere then adopted wiped out the surplus in the Treasury and seriously affected the credit of the Government In 1890-91 the tariff was revised up ward. It was Increased 10 per cent, not for the purposes of raising rev enue. but for the purpose of exclud ing Importations of foreign goods. Ap propriations were also largely in creased. The revenue was decreased over fifty million dollars annually, while the appropriations were in creased over a hundred million dol lars annually. These two pieces of legislation changed the net balance In the Treasury annually over one hundred and fifty millions of dollars. The surplus from Mr. Cleveland’s administration was rapidly wiped out, and by the 4th of Marcn, 1893, the Treasury was reduced to the lowest state that it had been in for many years. ‘•But the attack upon the national credit was not limited to emptying bhe Treasury- Secretary Windom recommended that all silver bullion offered to the Treasury should be bought and Treasury notes Issued In payment. The House of Represen tatives did not accept his view, but it did pass a bill providing for the is suance of $4,500,000 Treasury notes each month with which to purchase silver bullion. "When this bill reached the Senats, that body promptly substituted for it a bill providing for the free coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1. This was done without regard to the fact that President Harrison had declared that a 'free coinage bill would be discreditable to our financial man agement and disastrous to all busi ness interests.’ As a compromise, a bill was passed providing for the pur chase monthly of 4,500,000 ounces of silver bullion and the payment there for with Treasury notea. "In the midst of a world-wide financial distrust the United States began issuing over fifty millions an nually of Treasury notes, with noth ing back of them but silver, and that, too, under a statute which re quired this continued increase of pa per money with no provision for its absorption. "To quote from a subsequent re port of a Republican Treasurer, *Th*j people who had demanded this hun dred million of ready cash made their use of it and were willing to part with It, but the Treasury, which SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. Do Jnan and a woman, twice married to make a marriage doubly sure, also have to secure two divorces? This is an odd point that arose in the Superior Court here through the filing of a divorce complaint by James J. Haffinger against Lily Banchiero Hafilnger. The couple were married at Clay ton, Cal., In 1911, and three days later In Sa* Francisco remarried by a jus tice of the peace. Haffinger sued his wife for divorce last January and was granted a decree. In the proceed ings the Clayton marriage only was mentioned. Mrs. Haffinger did not contest the suit The fear now that he is not really divorced prompted Haffinger to file a second 6ult.

Foreign ex change began to rise and gold bars began to be taken from the Treasury for shipment abroad. By the end of June, 1891, the exports of gold had reached the unexampled figure of seventy millions of dollars for the six months. Continued Gold Shipmsnts. "The big wheat crop of 1891, with the short crop abroad, checked the trouble, only to begin again in the early part of 1892. In the first six months of 1892 $41,500,000 In gold was shipped abroad. In July and Au gust gold was going out at the rate of two to seven millions weekly. Gold began to be so short that it ceased to enter into commerce, and the fear of a depreciated currency caused geld to be hoarded. "By the middle of July, 1892, both the Treasury and the banks ceased to pay gold through the clearing house. Up to this time the demand for gold for exportation . had been obtained through the clearing house. During the latter part of the month of July. 1892, Government legal tenders were again carried to t ie Treasury and redemption in gold was demanded. This was the first demand for re demptions of Government legal ten ders in gold or any large quantities since 1879. "Appropriations were still exceed ing revenue, the gold reserve In the Treasury was depleted, and the Sec retary of the Treasury, Mr. Foster* stated In December, 1892, that a heavy deficit in revenue was impend ing. and that the whole machinery of the Government was imperiled. “Tn December. 1892, and January, 1893, upward of twenty-five millions of gold was withdrawn from the Treasury for export. The gold re serve had fallen co only a few mil lions more than the legal minimum, and in February’, 1893, before the in auguration of Mr. Cleveland, Secre tary Foster gave orders to prepare the engraving plates for a bond is sue under the Republican act to pro vide gold to meet legal tender notes presented at the Treasury. He avoided the actual Issue of these bonds in February by appealing to the New York banks to furnish him gold to prevent a panic. To his suc cessors in the Treasury on March 4, 1893, Mr. Foster left less than a mil lion dollars in excess of the required gold reserve of one hundred million, and only twenty-five millions of available cash. Public Confidence Shaken. "Referring to the situation on March 4. 1893, Noyes, in his ‘Thirty Years of American Finance.’ de clares: ‘Probably no financial admin istration in our history has entered office under such disturbing condi tions. The Treasury was empty an-1 public credit shaken.’ The same au thor states, speaking of this period in March and April, 1893. ‘The very sight of this desperate struggle go ing on to maintain the public credit w T as sufficient to alarm both home and foreign interests, and this alarm was now reflected everywhere. The feverish money market, the disor dered and uneasy market for securi ties and the renewed advance in for eign exchange combined to bring matters to a head.' In the meantime the reserve against the legal tenders had fallen below the statutory mini mum. The same author states, refer ring to the same period: ‘The public mind was on the verge of panic. Dur ing a year or more it had been con tinuously disturbed by the undermin ing of the Treasury, a process visible to all observers. In all probability the crash of 1893 would have come tw’elve months before had it not been for the accident of 1891’s great har vest, in the face of European fam ine.’ "In 1898 the panic in the West had reached the stage which seemed to foreshadow’ general bankruptcy. Dur ing the summer of 1893 clearinghouse certificates were Issued' against the assets of the banks and were used nearly everywhere Instead of cash. Many banks adopted the extreme measure of refusing to pay cash for the checks of their own depositors. Certified bank checks upon perfectly solvent banks could not obtain money on presentation, and were sold by brokers at a discount. Cleveland Restored Confidence. "Mr. Cleveland called Congress to gether on Augus f 7, 1893, to repeal the silver purchase law of 1890, and Mr. Noyes, in his work already quot ed, declares: ‘In the popular discus sion of the day, entire responsibility was laid on this law for the existing distress. * * • Repeal of the silver purchase law stopped future mischief of inflation, but it could not change the mischief already done.’ "It is true that Coxey*s Army marched to Washington in the spring of 1894 v It Is true that manv labor troubles^exlsted during the spring and summer of 1894, but I have presented the facts sufficiently to show that most of those troubles, certainly the worst of them, and the causes which produced them preceded tariff legisla tion. The causes which brought on the panic of 1898 were entirely dis connected with the tariff bill of 1894. long for the prosperity of the en tire country, for a prosperity which will bring wealth not alone to a few, but furnish a broad opportunity to the great masses of the people. ^ The doleful misrepresentation of he panic of 1893 should cease. It ha-s no bear ing upon the present. To-day the Treasury of the United States con tains one billion, two hundred and fifty millions of dollars in gold. "It is amply supplied with funds to meet the wants of the government. The Treasury is so strong that it is able to furnish a hundred millions of dollars to move the crops In the West and the South. Conditions are reas suring In all parts of the country. Splendid crops are being gathered, the exportation of which m part will bring additional wealth to our people and add to our gold supply. Doleful countenances should give way to smiles.

Percy Mackaye Writes Piece To Be Staged Out doors as Protest Against Slaughter. WINDSOR, VT., Sept. 6—With Miss Eleaijor Wilson, the President’s daughter, in one of the star parts, and her mother, Mrs. Woodrow Wilson, as patroness, a novel outdoor dramatic performance will be given on the evening of September 12 at Meriden, a village near here. The play, especially written for the occasion by Percy Mackaye, author of "Jeanne d’Arc” and “The Scarecrow,” is intended as a protest against the slaughter of birds that their plumage may be used to decorate women’s hats, and at the same time as an ap proval of the “feather proviso” in the tariff bill, which President Wilson fa vors. The piece is called "Sanctuary,* and will be performed in a piece of wood land which has been established as a safe and sacred living place for birds, which are fed and watered and housed by the members of the Meriden Bird Club. A number of prominent members of the artists’ colony at Cornish, N. H , besides Mr. Mackaye. are arranging the details and costumes of the play let and will appear in pantomime as birds of various species. The Cast of Characters.

Five States have »o far made entries, and each entry is a popular man. The States already in the contest for the prize are, In alpha betical order, Indiana, Michigan, Ne braska, New Jersey and South Da kota, The Department of Indiana ha* in dorsed O. A. Somers, a private In the ranks. Mr. Somers lives at Kokomo, and is a popular man with the mem bers of the Grand Army. He has the active and undivided support of his State and counts on help from a num- bef* of the strong States of the Cen tral West and from every member of the Grand Army; to use the words of a friend and supporter, "who believes that the time has come when a pri vate soldier should be honored." Nebraska has entered the lists with Colonel C. E. Adams, a banker and farmer, of Superior, Nebr. He is in dorsed by his State Department, and has a war record linked with the his tory of the Fourteenth Army Corps. Colonel Adams won distinction on many fields, Is loyal to the Grand Army’s interests and a successful man of affairs. Michigan Presents Gardner. Michigan will come to the encamp ment carrying the flag of the Hon. »Vashlngton Gardner. **f Albion, the well-Lnown editor-sitatesman, and en ter him as a candidate for the honor. Colonel Gardner enlisted in the serv ice when only 16, was with General Sherman during the campaign from Chattanooga to Atlanta and sustained a serious wound at Resaca, which ne cessitated retirement on an honorable discharge. He was a member of Con Kress from Michigan ten or a dozen years, nerving with high honors on a number of important committees, making a national reputation as one of the Republican leadera New Jersey's candidate for the hon or is Colonel Ralph D. Cole, a popu lar Grand Army man, who has a cred itable war record. He has the ln- , dorsement of the New Jersey Depart ment of the G. A. R. and is regarded as the candidate of the Eastern sec- j tlon, although sectionalism plays but little part in the selection of the com mander-In-chief. South Dakota has indorsed Captain N. H. Kingman, of Selby, and will come to Chattanooga determined to land him. Captain Kingman organ ized a company in the Thirteenth Wisconsin Regiment, and served with that organization until the close of the war. He has been one of the prominent figures In the Grand Army of the Republic since its organization and his atrength is general. With five strong candidate* said to be the greatest number ever presented before a national encampment, the fight for the honor promises to be spirited and full of interest. It should be explained that these men are can didates in the sense that their re spective State Departments have in dorsed them. 20,000 Veterans In Parade. General Alfred B.

General Beers gives the number of veterans likely to partici pate in the parade at from 16,000 to 20,000. The parade Is made up of the j national officers of the Grand Army, | the officers of the departments and i representatives, and then the mm- direction of Shy.

It Is an honest revision of the tariff down ward, free from all favoritism. The bill is framed primarily to procure revenue, but at the same time we geek to attain this end In a way that will not Injure legitimate industries It is constructed not only to free the con sumer from unjust burdens, but to place the manufacturing industries w’Fere they'will not be confined to American markets. It is built upon the competitive theory to the end that revenue may be raised and no con cern be able to feel that it has a mo nopoly of the home market gained other than through the fact that it is able to furnish better goods at lower prices than others. "It is true that some of our manu facturing Industries will feel the spur of competition where heretofore they have been without it, but there is no reason why they should fall to con tinue In lines of prosperity with broader trade. Oiven no longer the privilege of arbitrarily taking the dol lars of their neighbors, they will reach still further into the markets of the world for the sale of their commodi ties. "The great body of oonsumers will feel a lightening of their burdens. A wider opportunity will be given for individual effort. The average man will have a better chance. I do not mean that these changes will come Instantly. They will come gradually, and be more and more perceptible each year for several years. “Ve may turn to the future with confidence.
