THE ' PITTSBURG- DISPATCH, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 1891; GOULD'S UNHAPPY LOT Through the Failure to Pay the Mis souri Pacific Dividend. PERHAPS JAY WAS DISCOURAGED. lessons Taught by Some of the'Eccent Financial Episodes. AX EARLY SILTEK CEISIS PEEDICTED rsrtCIXL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCII.l Xeiv Yoek, Sept. 27. Matthew Marshal reviews the financial and speculative situa tion for to-morrow's Sun as follows: The proverb, "Nothing is so certain as the unforeseen," has received a number of firikinj: illustrations from recent events in the world of finance. The weather, even, which usnally is regarded merely as a hackneyed subject of conversation, has Tiehaved in a way to attract to itself interest as a factor in speculation, and has brought rain, by obstinate persistence in heat when cold wa expected, to a firm which had relied upon the co-operation of frost to cut -.tiVttm Trultfln (rtrn owm art1 .T..n I....... 1 f success of a comer in the staple. Then 5e have had news which fortu nately proved false of beliperent pro ceedings by Great llritain against Russia, in seizing and forfeiting an island in the 3Iediterraneau. The Union Pacific Rail way Company has wavered back and forth between a receivership and a successful funding of its floating debt, with the result according to the latest advices that the fund ins scheme is certainly successful, and the receivership as eertainlv averted. Last, but not leat, came the failure of the Jlis Fiuri Pacific Railway directors to meet and declare the annual quarterly dividend on the company's stock, which had an effect in "Wall street very much like that of a live coal in a barrel of gunpowder. SURPRISING RETURN OF GOLD. Res-ides these general surprises, which were surprises to everybody, a considerable minority, including mysell, Have had to witness imports of gold" from Europe, con trary to our expectations, and a more or Jess explicit declaration against unlimited j-ilver coinace by the President of the Vnited States and bv both the great poli tical organizations of" this State, which, we had supposed, political exigencies would forbid. It is hard to refrain from trite moraliza lion upon the subject of S. V, White & Co 's failure, but the lesson which the catas trophe teaches is so obvious that I shall do no more than to refer to it in justification of my persistent discouragement of gambling operations of all kinds, and in my'own de fense asainst those who accuse me of undue hearishness in my views. Mr. "White and 3ns, partner? have had plenty of experience in speculation and large pecuniary means. The great corner which they planned was as reasonably sure of success as are the thou sand little purchases of stocks for a rise, which have combined to produce the pres ent buoyant stock market. THE WXATIIEK BEAT THEM. They failed in consequence of extraor dinary weather, which overthrew their cal culations Their humble imitators have not yet failed, and probably will not, but the thiver that ran over the market on Thurs day, when the Missouri Pacific dividend was found to be in danger, is a warning of possible disaster, which ought not to pass unheeded. The transient war cloud in the Mediterranean, which for a little space cast a gloom oier the exchanges of Europe, is unuiuer snen a warning. It is notorious that between the great European pow ers a state of tension exists which may at nnv dav result in a rupture. 2n0 indications of an immediate catastrophe are visible, but upon the principle of the proverb I began by quoting, it is no more probable, to say the least, than the rnain tainance of the present state of things. A war in Europe, indeed, wouhl at first add to the already enormous requirements of the people there for our food products, but it would also lead to a selling of our securi ties, which would more than counterbalance the purchase of food. DKNYINti THE ALLEGED PROOF. Br the way, I hear and read a groat deal about n large buying in this market of our f-eeurities lor London account, and of the proof the fact is supposed to furnish of an investment demand abroad for these securi ties, which will prevent any of them from Iieing sent here lor sale to'pay for hrend ttufl's. I do not dispute the tact of the pur chases, but I deny the inference drawn fronfit. Mv own surmise is and it is confirmed by all the information I get from my irieiidsin Eondon that these purchases are as specu lative as those of our home srfTck gamblers, and that the securities embraced in them will, whenever the time comes, be dumped upon us as remcrsclesslyas were those sent over at the time of the Baring failure. The fcimpie truth is lhat the market for home se curities in London is so flat and dead that the London gamblers are nsing the cable to operate in ours, and that the demand thus created indicates nothing one way or the other. PREDICTING A SILVER CRISIS. I notice, too. a general chorus of con temptuous criticism, both in the newspapers and out of them, of some opinionsexpressed Lv Mr. Robert Giffen concerning our finan cial prospects, in an interview cabled over here one day last week. Mr. Giden is re ported as saying that Europe wonld not be permitted by its treat financial institutions to send us more than 10,000,000 sterling in gold in payment for food, and that any ex cess of this amount would be remitted in tecuritics and goods. He further said that we are gradually approaching a silver crisis, under the opcraVon of the act of July, 1890, and that ihe crisis (printed probably'w rong ly "crash") would occur next February. Now, he may be wrong, and he is cer tainly indiscreet in setting a date for the accomplishment of his prophecy, but he is far from being ridiculous in his views. That liis financial lorecast is entitled to respect, is proved by his repeated warnings through the columns of the London SlatM of the Argentine crash months belore it hap peued, and before anv other financier of prominence took the alarm. That he is equally well informed as to facts, his nu merous sfatistical publications give ample evidence. THE PART OF WISDOM. "When, therefore, he tells us that we can hope for only so much gold from abroad and no more, and that we are in danger of soon coming to a silver btandard of cur rency, it is the part of wisdom to examine his assertions and discover their real value, rathes than dismiss them as unworthy of ierious consideration. Perhaps I am not altogether disinterested in my judgment of this matter, because I have myself been guilty of expressing opin ions very similar to those attributed to Mr. Giffen. Like him I have asserted that the banks of Europe would'not permit any very extensive return to this country of the gold we sent them during the first half of the year. They drew it from us because they needed it imperatively to buttress their tottering credit, and I argued that they would do their utmost to keep it, in order mat their credit maynotaiam be imperiled. That under the act of July, 18'JO, we are gradually approaching an exclusive silver currency, is another of mv favorite proposi tions, though I don't fix the arrival of the crisis so early as next February. AS FOR THE PEOPHECT. I presume Mr. Gifl'en calculates upon the? annual return now oi currency irom the XV est to our .hastem centers, which usually culminates about February, to produce a glut of it at those centersand thus to put Sold at a premium. Whether this result will be witnessed this year is doubtful, but, if the Treasury goe- on turninz out every re-ir ."H.000,ai0 of additional paper money, it must come to pass eventually. w In the meantime our superabundant Cur- rency will so raise the prices of commodi ties that this country will be the best mar ket in the wprld to sell them in, and, as long as we maintain gold payments, foreign sell ers wiU be able to colfect gold for their goods. Hence any sudden demand for gold abroad will produce another drain of it, like that of last spring, without the resource, which we then had, of a. surplus in the Na tional Treasury. For the present we are tolerably safe, but another year may show a different state of affairs, and then Mr. Giffen's judgment will be vindicated. JAY GOULD'S DiraAPPY LOT. Mr. Giffen's lot is, h"owever, a happy one compared with Mr. Jay Gould's. He is only condemned and ridiculed, whereas Mr. Gould is execrated as an incarnate demon. The unanimity with which the street inter preted the failure of the Missouri Pacific dividend as evidence of an infamous pur pose on his part to create a panic, and thus to wreck the rrosDeritv of bull speculation. reminds me of the remark ot the Frcnoh diplomatist when he heard of the death of the Minister of a rival country, with whom he had been having a negotiation marked by great adroitness and fertility of resources on the part of his adversary: "Dead? "What does he expect to accom plish by dying?" It does not strike me as necessary or rea sonable to suppose that Mr. Gould advised or consented to the action of the Missouri Pacific directors from any special motive. Jle may have simply got tired of-advancing the money for dividends and concluded-that this was as good a time as anv to stop. .Rail road business in the "West Las notoriously been unprofitable until within a fow weeks past, and while the disbursement of 5S0O, 000 lor tne renewal or maturing oonas snouia not, as a matter of bookkeeping, be charged to current expenses, but distributed over the interest account in installments from year to year during the term of the new bonds, yet, as a matter of cash, the money has been paid, and to that extent has de pleted the company's treasury. GOULD. EASILY DISCOURAGED. Mr. Gould, it is well known, is some times easily discouraged. His late la mented partner, James Fisk, .7r., said of him that, on a certain occasion in the Black Friday panic of 1869, he was "nothinj but a pair" of eyes and a heap of clothes," so coranletelvhad his courace oozed out of him. So.'no v, he may have honestly de-' spaired of the future of Missouri Pacific, as well as that of Union Pacific, and ascrib ing to him a profound Machiavellian policy may be pure! :iya work of the imagination. The bricht spot to me in the financial future is the evident commencement ot a reaction against the silver craze -and the prospect, not only of the defeat of un limited silver coinage, but of the ultimate repeal of the act of July, 1890. The par tisan declarations in favor of maintaining the gold standard, though they are am biguous, are still cheerinc, but more cheer ing and almost satisfactory is the change of. sentiment at the Yt est which is bound to result from large crops and high prices. The mainspring of the silver movement has been the desire of getting more dollars, and now that this desire is about to be gratified by natural causes there remains no motive for appealing to legislation for" a debased dollar. ODD FELLOWS' TBAN6ACTI0NS. Many Matters of Importance Disposed of at Saturday's Session. St. Louis, Sept. 27. The Sovereign Grand Lodge of Odd Fellow i decided sev eral matters of importnace at their session yesterday. The report of the Committee on Patriarchs Militant was-tha first question considered. Ellis is a Grand Representa tive from Ohio and the Grand Lodg? of that State preferred the charges. Some time since when the office of Captain General, which EII13 held, expired, he assumed the duties of Lieutenant General without nnv other. formality of election except the application i ot law. anorti alter tnis ne issueu-an or der assuming command of the Patriarchs Militant. General John C Underwood, after his commission as Acting Lieutenant. General had expired, had Ellis deposed and; ordered his arrest The Grand Lodge of Ohio took exceptions to this, and entered) complaint against the action of General TJn-. derwooa. ihe committee recommended that no action be taken on the complaint. The same committee reported on the pro posed demonstration of Odd Fellows in Chicago during the "World's Fair and rec ommended that the Grand Sire and Lieu tenant General be authorized to take such steps as they may deem necessary or ex pedient to accomplish the desired purpose, provided no expense is thereby entailed. A motion to remove the office of'Grand Secre tary from Columbus to Baltimore was re ferred to a committee to report at the next session of the lodge. The proposition of General Underwood to. allow members of lodges to become members of the Patriarchs Militant without having passed through the encampment branch was defeated, as well as the motion to hold national and State conventions of the order of Daughters of Eebekah.

It is claimed that the September heat of 1891 is breaking all records. We can truthfully add that our September prices of Fall Goods, too, are breaking all records. While mercury has thus far stubbornly refused to come down, our prices DID NOT. EXPOSITION EXCURSIONISTS Will do well to take advantage of our Indian Summer Re ductions before leaving the city. You can buy a suit and save enough money on it to pay your traveling expenses. FALL OVERCOATS Are usually in big demand at this time of the year, but this season, owing to the hot weather, the trade has been flat. The following unheard-of reductions, however, will stir up business, we are sure: $12 Fall Overcoats, nqw $9. $15 Fa!!, Overcoats, now $11. $18 Fall Overcoats, now $14. $20 Fall Overcoats, now $15. $22 Fall Overcoats, now $17. ' $25 Fall Overcoats now $20. These reductions include all the nobby styles: Sacks, English Box, Prince Charles, etc. KAUFMANNS' Fifth Ave. and Smithfield St KAILKOAD3. PENNSYLVANIA RAILROAD.
