191 'j&mQ j w - y as ? '- ' e75 -,t THE PITTSBUKQ DISPATCH,:" TUESDAY, MAEOH 26; 1889. IB A STRONG DEFENSE Of the Acts of the State Sinking Fund Commissioners is Made BI HON. HENRY HALL OP MERCER. Mr. Wherry Asks Some Perplexing Ques tions, and Insists That BUSINESS TfilKCIPLES SHOULD EULE In the Administration of the Fiscal Affairs of the Commonwealth. Mr. "Wherry's resolution on the sinking fund question again came up for discussion in the Legislature. After an elaborate de fense of the Commission by Hon. Henrj Hall, the measure was again referred to the Ways aud Means Committee by almost a strict party vote. The soldiers orphans' bill waf amended in the House, giving the State control ot the Commission. TFBOX A STAFF COKBESPOXDEST.J Habbisbubg, March 25. "When Hon. Henry Hall sat down to-night he was ap plauded so vigorously that the Speaker rapped for order. The applause all came from the Republicans. Mr. Hall had just nuished defending the Sinking fund Com missioners from Mr. "Wherry's attack, and though his voice was weak from his illness when he began, it gathered strength and volume as he proceeded. Mr. Wherry had changed his tactics, and to-night offered the following resolution, which Mr. Dearden moved to refer to the Ways and Means Committee: Whereas, The Sinking Fund Commissioners hare, during the fiscal years 1BM7 and 1&S7-8, . .purchased State bonds at a higher rate than the market rate, thus violating the act of Feb ruary, lSTfii aa amended by the act ot June, 1SS3, making such purchases at rates of from one-eighth to two and five-tenths per cent higher than the market rate at the time fixed by the act as a limit to the purchase of such bonds, and that the amount of such excess has been in the aggregate at least S7.000-, and. Whereas, The said Sinking Fund Commis sioners sold In December, 1SS7, and January, 1S8S, $1,000,000 of United States bonds, which were invested in the funds, which sale was in violation of the act of 1SS3, which declares that such bonds shall only be sold when the money shall be required for the extinguishment of the public debt; and X BIG CASH BALANCE. Whereas, The proceeds of these bonds were not necessary for the extinguishment of the pnblic debt, for the reason that when such bonds were sold there was already in the State Treasury a cash balance of over $1,490,000. and that after the said bonds had been sold, al though $300,000 worth of State loans had been purchased there still remained in the fund, not reckoning the sale of the said United States bonds, a cash balance of more than $1,100,000; and that, at the close of the fiscal tear, after the S ate nad met all the obliga tions of the fund, and had purchased nearly a million ot the State loans, in addition there still remained in the Treasury, not reckoning tbe proceeds of the sale of such bonds, a cash surplus of over 1.100,000, thus demonstrating that said sale of United States bonds was not necessary for the extinguishment of the public debt, and has not been necessary for the ex tinguishment of the public debt upjto the pres ent time; and Whereas, the bondsmen of the said Com missioners are liable to the State for at least the amount of Interest lost to the State up to date, by the sale of said million dollars worth of United States bonds, which now lies a use less surplus in cash in the State treasury, amounting to 6Q,0U0 at least, for the excess of premiums paid on the purchase of State bonds above the legal limit, the then market rate amounting to at least $7,u00; therefore be it Resolved (if the Senate concur). That a committee of five members of the House and three ot the Senate be appointed to investigate said transaction of the Sinking Fund Commis sioners, and other transactions of the Commis sioners for the past two years, and to report to the Legislature by bill or otherwise. WHEBBT WON'T BE TBEASUBEB. Mr. "Wherry, in introducing the resolu tion, reiterated the charges made in the pamphlet that was laid on the desks of the members last Friday. He stated that the cause for the loss alleged was either gross ignorance, disre gard of the State's best interests, or worse. It was admitted by at least one of the State's accounting officers that a mistake had been made, and this had been denied by no one, not even the Governor, in the state ment made by him to the newspapers. He held that the bondsmen were liable for every dollar of the loss shown. Mr. "Wherry, after arraigning the Sinking Fund Com missioners at some length, and submitting the now noted pamphlet as a portion of his remarks, concluded bv denying that there was anything political in the attack, saying for himself: "In the presence of this assembly, and of the Most High Judge, before whom I ex pect one day to appear, lam not, and will not, be a candidate for State Treasurer, and would not accept the office." Mr. Hall made the speech of the evening in opposition to Mr. "Wherry. He referred to that gentleman's change of tactics, as due to the discovery by him that the informa tion called for "by one of his resolutions of Friday was furnished monthly by the State Treasurer, and by law' made accessible to every citizen of the. Commonwealth. MB. HAIL'S DEFENSE of the Sinking Fnnd Commissioners was in line with Governor Beaver's, and he read letters from the State's fiscal agent, and from Drexel, Morgan & Co., to the effect that it was a very wise act, viewed from all standpoints. 2so one, of course, could fore see that as the State became a seller of "United States bonds the United States Gov ernment would stiffen a falling market and cause a boom in these securities by becom ing a purchaser. Mr. Hall said th Sink ing Fund Commissioners, before taking the action criticized, had consulted the most eminent financiers of the nation. Mr. "Wherry stated that he had charged no moral delinquency, but thought the ad vice under which United States bonds were sold might have come from a State Treasury ring of bankers, who have State deposits and might want more. Mr. Hall, when Mr. Wherry demanded to know their names, said he could not give them all, and the present Sinking Fund Commissioners could not. "The then Auditor General visited Phila delphia, and I believe Ifew York, and con sulted personally and by letter the best financial minds of the country. That gen tleman's lips," said Mr. Hall, "are sealed by death.' "I have not," said Mr. "Wherry, "forgot ten that ad fact, and that has been the greatest stumbling block in my way in this matter. Speak no evil of the dead, is a sentiment as strong in my breast as in that of the gentleman from Mercer." ymEBBY ASKS FOB IKFOBMATION. Mr. Hall said he did not want the State to run a broker hop, as he believed Mr. "Wherry's resolution of Friday provided. He admitted that tie Sinking Fund Com missioners were liable to make mistakes, but no more so than the gentleman from Cumberland, nnd the author of the anony mous pamphlet which, Mr. Wherry had adopted as his own. He accepted Mr. Wherry's etatemen that he was not striving for political preferment, but the party be hind him probably did not feel jnst that Mr. "Wherry called the attention of the House to the admitted fact that the Sinking Fund Commissioners had sold $1,000,000 worth of United States bonds for the pur pose or purchasing State bonds without having a contract for the latter. "Is this business?" he asked. "Would Drexel, Morgan & Co., who commend the sale of United States bonds by the State, and its purchase of State bonds, nave done the one without making sure of the other? "Would they sell United States bonds them selves to let the monev lie idle in their Vaults? All I ask Is that the State's finan cial agent, and those responsible for the State's finances, use the same judgment that Vrtii anil V An In At,,. .! .ITitw ' Mr. Dearden closed the debate by refer ring to Mr. Qalclazer, of the Philadelphia .Record, as the author of the pamphlet used by Mr. Wherry, and the motion to refer the resolution to the Wavs and Means Commit tee was carried by a" vote of 91 to 43. A number of Republicans voted with Mr. Wherry and the Democrats. Simpson. PROVIDING FOE THE OEPJIANS.
