ANSWER FOR PICS BY

Speeches of His G. O. P. Colleag ues

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
"f twenty years ,ig•» contributed to
l he 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 plates 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 this tariff bill
will probably bring the couhtry 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
the Republican side are inaccurate,
and their fears utterly without foun
dation.
“Before dealing with the panic
from which this country suffered dur
ing 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 all 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 pass< d 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 year 1894. No great in
crease of importation followed the
tariff reductions of 1894. Our tariff
importations were less in 1895 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
1895
1892
1896
.$844,454,000
. 731.162,000
. 81 3,601,000
. 759.694,000
“The panic of 1893. 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 opposed 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. They
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 pa‘wage 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
ot the panic 'of that period was pass
ing.
It is easy to find causes for the
panic oi 1893. Those causes and the
conditions of 1893 should be presented
that all doubt, due to protestations
of fear on the other side of this
chamber, may be removed from the
public mind, and evil consequences
which rnignt 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
oi Baring Brothers took place on
November 20, 189U. and was followed
with world-wide financial disturb
ances. The disturbance was so great
in New York City that the banks
were forced to issue fifteen millions
in Clearing House loan certificates,
and loan rates rote in New York citj
at limes to over 100 per cent, accom
panied by numerous banking failures.
Ibis in itself affected conditions
throughout the United States.
“There were, however, other agen
cies at work here that necessitated
serious trouble.
“Mr. Cleveland closed his first tern,
as President on March 4, 1889. Dur
ing the first four yjears of his service
the couniry enjoyed unprecedented
prosperity. The Government, tinan-
cialiy, was strong. The revenues
largely exceeded tne appropriations.
The surplus in the Treasury was so
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
$180,009,000 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.
Harnson Wiped Out Surplus.
“Under President Harrison, who
followed President Cleveland. Mr
YVindom became Secretary of the
Treasury, and the measures whicn
were then adopted wiped out the
surplus in the Treasury and seriously
affected the credit of the G-overnmen:.
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 March, 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
the 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 Senate,
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 notes.
“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. ‘The
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. 6.—Do a
man 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. Hafflnger against Lily Banchiero
Haftinger.
The couple were married at Clay
ton.^ Cal., In 1911, and three days later
in San Francisco remarried by a jus
tice of the peace. Hafflnger sued his
wife for divorce last January and
was granted a decree. In the proceed
ings the Clayton marriage only was
mentioned. Mrs. Hafflnger did not
contest the suit
The fear now that he is not really
divorced prompted Hafflnger to file a
second suit.

could not call it back.’ 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 Shipments.
“The big wheat crop of 1891. with
the short crop abroad, checked the
trouble, only to begin again in the
early part of 1892. I.i the first six
months of 1892 $41,500,000 in gold was
shipped abroad. Tn 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 four ot
a depreciated currency caused gold to
be hoarded.
“By the middle of July. 1892. both
the Treasury and the banks ceased <o
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 i ie Treasury and
redemption in gold was demanded.
This was the firm 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* tha
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.
“In 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 :o 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. Tfi 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 Ills ‘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 and
public credit shaken.' The same au
thor states, speaking of this period
in March and April, 1893.1‘The very
sight of this desperate struggle go
ing on to maintain the public credit
was 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
bad fallen below the statutory mini
mum. The same author states, refer
ring to the same period: ‘The public
mind w r as 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
twelve months before had it not been
for the accident of 1891’s great har
vest. in the face of European fam
ine.’ —
“In 1893 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 *>f the banks and were used
nearly everj’wherr instead of cash.
Many banks adopted the extreme
measure of refusing to pay cash for
the check? 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 Aligns* 7. 1893. to repeal
the silver purchase law of 1890, and
Mr. Noyes, in his wmrk already quot
ed, declares: Tn 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, h it it could not change
the mischief already done.’
“It is true that Coxev’s Army
marched to Washington in the spring
of 1894. It is true that many labor
troubles existed 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 w’hich
produced them preceded tariff legisla

the panic of 1893 were entirely dis

The piece is called “Sanctuary,” and

CHATTANOOGA, Sept. 6.—Every
Indication points to a spirited contest
at the Chattanooga encampment of
the Grand Arm/ of the Republic for
commander-in-chief. Five States have
mo 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 has in
dorsed (J. 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 Ills
State and counts on help from a num
ber 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.
Washington Gardner. «? Albion, the

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 Resaoa, which ne
cessitated retirement on an honorable
discharge. He was a member of Con
gTfcss 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 leaders.
New Jersey's candidate ror the hon

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 j
and his strength is general.
With five strong candidates, 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

20,000 Veterans in Parade.
General Alfred B. Beern, command-
er-in-chief, has forwarded to the
Chattanooga Encampment Association
the formation for the parade of vet
erans at the forthcoming national en
campment. General Beers gives the
number of veterans *ikely to partici

20,000. The parade is made up of the
national officers of the Grand Army,
the officers of the departments and
representatives, and then the mem

present at the encampment and the
Sons of Veterans.
The average age of enlistment dur

“We believe in this bill, the passage
of which we are pressing. 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 seek
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
where they will not be confined to
American markets. It Is built upoL
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 feed 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. Given 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 consumers will
feel a lightening of their burdens. A
wider opportunity will be given for
individual effort. The average man
will have a better chance. 1 do not
mean that these changes will come
Instantly. They will come gradually,
and be more and more perceptible
each year for several years.
"We may turn to the future with
confidence. The wrangling over the
bill is practically ended, and the busi
ness of the country will resume
normal conditions with the passage
of the bill.”
