SECRETARY GAGE'S MISTAKE
It is the law, niul has been the
practice of former secretaiies of the
treasur', to require the deposit, in
established United States sub-treasuries,
of the internal revenue receipts
of the government.
Secretary Gage has established a
new practice. To bolster up the
credit of the banks, and particularly
one favored bank in New York city,
he has directed that hereafter all such
collections shall be sent first to the
National City bank of New York,
and from that general depositor'
transferred to such other banks of
the United States as shall deposit
with the treasury the required amount
of United States bonds.
This has aroused a whirlwind of
indignation, and will be made the
Bubject of congressional investiga
tion, both iu the house and in the
senate.
It is significant that a large part of
the criticism comes from bankers and
newspapers which reflect the views
and wishes of bankers. The internal
revenue receipts of the government
amount to nearly 1,000,000 daily,
and it is pointed out that since only
a third of these revenues arc col
lected east of the Allcghenies and
north of the Potomac, the selection
of a single New York bank as the
place of lirst deposit has n suspicious
look of gross favoritism.
One of the sharpest critics of this
course of Secretary Gage is the
Chicago Tribune, a journal which
has been one of the stauncliost sup
porters of the gold shmlard policy
of the administration, and from
whoso editorial staff Mr, Gage se
lected his assistant secretary. The
Buuruiary s leaning home paper says:
"It will be ditlicult to convince
the public that it is necessary to ng.
gregato in any one bank, for the pur-
pose or distribution, the daily in
ternal revenue collections of this
great country. It will be impossible
to convince the people, nnd especial
iy the people of the West, that it will
not be fairer to divide the United
States into several districtsto have
tlio Pacific coast receipts put in San
Pranoisco banks, those of tho middle
West in Cuk'pgo, Cincinnati and St.
Louis banks, those of the Southwest
in INow Orleans banks, nnd those of
JNew England and Now York in
Boston and New York institutions.
Thoro arc no diilloulties in the way
unless in some one of these districts
no bank con bo found which is will,
ing to give the requiicd security for
deposits.
"If one bonk mint be selected as
the place of first deposit piibliosontt.
ment will bo adverso to tho choice of
D3 Now York bank, for that would
look as if tho intention is to draw
from nil narts of tho United States
public money, which can bo loaned
at G per cent or more by the institu
tion holding it to those Wall street
operators who nrc complaining of
tho 'stringency of the money market.'
A policy of government interference
in llnaucial affairs for the benefit of
stock market speculator is not
viewed with favor by the public. It
does not wish to soc the general gov
ernment playing the pait of the 'god
in the machine' to relieve distressed
brokers. It prefers that the govern
ment should remain neutral. This
prefcrcc is shared by the Tribune.
It believes it neither right nor ex
pedient for the government to at
tempt to bolster up a sagging stock
market by exhibiting gross favorit
ism to a particular bank. It is too
big n contract. The government may
be harmed mote than the stock
market is helped.
"If it were necessary, as it is not,
to select some Now York bunk as the
place of first doposit, the National
City bank is the one of all others
which a cautious secretary of the
treasury who had his hand on the
public pulse would not have chosen.
It is not a popular bank even among
bankers. It is the Standard Oil bank,
and Americans have no burning love
for the Standard Oil Company or
the men at the head of it. Had the
secretary of the treasury consulted
any outsiders before he acted they
would have told him that not nil
things which are lawful unto him are
expedient nnd that one of the most
inexpedient things he could do was
to favor the Rockefeller bank. The
treasury should have no pets least of
all n pet bank. S112I1 an institution
is a stench in the nostrils of the
people."
The secretary's action forms a moat
proper subject of congressional in
quiry. In the first place, the right
place for these collections is in the
United States sub-treasuries, and the
secretary has no riglrt to employ the
funds of the government to help out
adventurous bankers who have over-
loaned their deposits. In the second
lace, if the government is going into
the paternal business of helping out
incautious bankers, there shouldbe
no favoritism. Spokesman-Review.

A startling incident, of which Mr.
John Oliver of Philadelphia, was the
subject, is narrated by ;hiin as follows:
