SECRETARY CARLISLE ON FINANCE Notablo Addresses at the Annual Banquet of the New York Chamber of Commerce How We Are Outstripping tho Nations of the Old World. New YoKK, Nov. 20. Tho 127th nnnunl banquet of the Chnmbor of Commerce of tho state of Now York was held nt Dol montco's last evening. The yearly dinner of this organization nro among tho most Important events of tho metropolis and that of last night was no exception. Ut terances that havo moved tho policy of tho government have been mado on those oc casions, and it was at onoof tho chamber's dinners that Secretary of tho Treasury Wludom was stricken with sudden death a few years ago. It was somewhat after 0 o'clock when President Orr rapped for order, and in a brief speech, In which ho referred to the Armenian atrocities, introduced Secretary Carlisle, who spoko on "Our Currency System." In tho cour.io of his lengthy re dress Mr. Carlisle said: "In attempting to provido a circulating medium consisting of Its own notes ro deemablo in coin on presentation and ro issuablo after redemption, tho government of tho United States is engaged in n busi ness for which it is wholly unfitted and which was novcr for a moment contem plated by Its foundors. It lias a right to borrow inonoy and lssuo ovidences of tho debt, and it has a right to coin mouoy and regulate its values that is, to declaro what tho rolatlvo values of tho metals shall bo in tho coinage but it was novcr contemplated that It should convert Itself into a bank 'of lssuo and furnish a logal tender paper currency for tho use of tho people. It has no department or agency properly organized or equipped for tho transaction of such business, oven If this were a legitimate governmental function. Tho treasury department ought to bo, and was Intended to bo, simply a public agency for tho management of tho fiscal affairs of tho government as a government, not as a bank. "iNo change that can bo mado In our currency system will afford tho rollof to which tho government and tho people aro entitled unless It provides for tho retire ment and cancellation of tho legal tender United States notes. Anything less than this, will bo simply a palliative, aud not a cure, for tho financial ills to which tho country 13 now subject. Tho circulation of legal tender United States notes has a tendency to drive out of use and out of tho country tho very coin in which tho govern ment Is compelled to redeem thorn, and It has expelled millions of dollars from our borders. Although tho government and our own pcoplo nro compelled to rcccivo them, they will not dischurgo interna tional obligations, aud gold must go out to settle all final halaucos agalust us. "Tho United States note was a forced loan from tho pooplo to tho government which tho government promised to pay in dollars, but tho freo coinage of legal lou der silver at tho ratio of 10 to 1, or at any other ratio not corresponding with the commercial valuo of tho two motals,would ho a forced loan from tho peoplo to the owners of silver mines and silver bullion, without a promise of repayment by any body. Ono loan was forced for tho benefit of tho government in a tlmo of war, but tho proposition of tho advocates of freo coinago Is to forco another loan for tho benefit of private individuals aud corpora tions in a time of profound peaco. "Hut tho United States logal tender notes will remain to complicate tho cur rency system and 'embarrass tho govern jucnt until tho pooplo, through their rep resentatives in congress, agree upon some plan by which thoy can bo retired and some othor form of currency substituted In their place, at least so far as tho ncces sltlos of tho country may require such sub stitution. In my opinion legislation in this direction at tho earliest possible day Is imperatively demanded by every sub stantial interest In tho country." Secretary Carlisle's speecli was fre quently applauded, especially that part w' "i lie committed himself to sound money. .. .vas followed by United States Sena tor J. C. Burrows, of Michigan, who spoko on "Our Bomostlo Commerce" Charlos Emory Smith, of Philadelphia, ex-minister to Russia, was tho third speaker, his toast being "National Hovel opmont and Opportunity." Mr. Smith spoko in substance us follows: "Ours is a land of fullness and not of fam ine. Provldonco has dowered us with match loss opportunity and tho world's evolution unfolds before us tho crowning destiny of mankind. Tho merchant prlncos, oven of middlo ago, before mo havo within their own business lives seen our young ropub llo pass and outstrip all tho old nations, hoary with tho moss of 11 thousand yoars. In tho two decades from 1870 to 1S90 tho three mighty powers of Groat Britain, Franco and Germany, all combined, with their 185,000,000 peoplo, gained In wealth 130,000,000,000, while tho United States alone, with its 60,000,000 peoplo, gained 8338,000,000.000. "Tho examination of national earnings tells tho enkindling story of triumphant advance. Groat Britain is estimated to oarn about JO.-iOO.OOO.OOO a year, Franco $5,000,000,000 aud Germany about tho samo, whilotho United States cams over $13, 000,000,000, or two-thirds as much as all tho othor thrco put togothor. If wo wore not such magulflcont spenders how wo should astonish ourSolvos In stupendous savings. But spending lpakos consump tion, and consumption makes production, and as wo are tho greatest consumors so wo aro tho greatest producers In tho world. Today we earn two-third ns muoh as the thrco groat powers of Eunno combined. Soon wo shall leap beyond them. From 1870 to 1890 Great Britain increased her earnings $1,000,000,000 a year, and Franco tho samo, but our republic expanded iter's by $5,000,000,000 a year. "Ensland had certainly In tho past boon tho industrial beeliivo of tho vi-orld. In 1800 Mm product of our manufactures was but little more than half of hers. In 1800 it more than doubled her output. Her in crease was $1,200,000,000. while ours was about $7,000,000,000. Our expansion in In dustries was more than twice that of Eng land, Franco and Germany put together. Through this amazing development wo nianufacturo over one-third of all that is manufactured In tho world, and wo uso and consumo tho bulk of this colossal pro portion among our own people, who aro tho best paid, host housed, best fed, best dressed, best schooled peoplo on tho face of the globe. 'In tho great race of nations tho powers of the Old World nro heavily handicapped, while the lltlio, supple, sinewy young glnnt of tho Now World stridos forward freo and unhampered. Their debts aro piling up; ours nro molting away. Their taxes aro rising; ours are falling. Their expenditures nro frightfully swelling: ours aro relatively docllulng. Their pro ductive forces nro stripped for arms and armaments; ours nro at tho plough, tho forge, tho loom and tho exchange tho tools of wealth and not of waste. "England's taxes aro 10 per cent, of her earnings, Franco's 13 per cent., and Ger many's 10$ per cent., while ours are only 6 per cent. England spends one-sixth of her local tuxei and one-twelfth of ill her revenues for poor relief, and on. ' 0110 sevonteenth for schools. The United States spends ouo-slxth of all her national and local lncoino for schools, and tho de mand for poor relief is only a beggarly Item. The contrast Is tho key of tho future. "And wo aro only nt tho threshold of our dovolopmeut. Most of tho growth I liavo .brloily portrayed lias como within twenty years. Who shall grasp tho advancement of tho next twenty or thirty years, or pic ture tho dazzling destiny of tho noxt cen tury? Perhaps half tho men within tho sound of my voico will live to see our re public an overtowerjng nation of a hun dred millions of tho most enlightened, tho most energetic, and tho most progressive pcoplo God ever created. Ourspirit, if not our flag, will rulo tho hemisphere. Tho Nicaragua canal, constructed by Ameri can cupitul and owing allegiance to Amer ican control, will open through tho con tinent tho highway of tho sea, and Now York, wresting tho financial scepter from London, will stand llko another Venico of tho earlier and narrower days, as tho focus and emporium of tho world's wldo cum morco betweon tho Orient aud tho Occi dent." Letters of regret wore thou read from President Cleveland and Governor Mor ton. "Ethics In Politics" was tho toast re sponded to by tho Rov. Wooloy Striker, Lb. H., president of Hamilton college. In tho course of a toast to "Tho City of New York," Mayor Strong said: "I am going to say jn,t a word about politics. I havo been told by some peoplo that I am not a good politician. I realizo that the statement is a true ono, but I sliall go on to tho end of my term acting as I think host for tho peoplo of this magnificent mu nicipality." At Ilrecn's Cafe.

A Sketch of His Career He Started as a Breaker Boy and Rapidly Gained Prominence Through His Activity in Political Circles. John .1. Jtouaghan died at a qunrter past thrco o'clock yesterday afternoon, at his home on South Hewers street. Ho had sullercd for some timo from ISrights' disease and his life was in tho halanco for several days. About three months ago tho deceased came homo from Philadelphia, wliero he hold a position as Inspector of Immigration. Ho was a very sick man, but Ids jovial disposi tion still held sway and reassured his family. About a week afler his arrival he became bedfast and from that tlmo he gradually succumbed, although at times there were fluctuations that gave the family some hope. He was conscious up to tho last moment and during tho night and morning preceding his death, despite intense sullbring, he ex changed many pleasantries with those who sun-minded his bedside. His last moments were peaceful. At tho time of his death tho bereaved wife, Col. P. H. Monajthan, of Glrardville, and Martin Monaghan, brothers of tho deceased, ex-Senator H. J. Monaghan, a cousin, and John J. Heiily were in attend ance. Tile deceased was 3!) yoars of age and is survived by a wife and three children, who are believed to bo comfortably provided for. The announcement of tho death carried sorrow to many circles. 'Squire Monaghan was known throughout Shenandoah and vicinity, and his interest iu the Democratic party bad mado him extensively known iu the county. For several years ho was the most prominent man in tho First ward and a political campaign without the hand of " 'Squire Jack" in it would have been looked upon as a very tame all'air. It was as a poli tician and Justice of the Peace that lie gained ids prominence and, while at times his methods may have been such as did not meet tho approval of some, thero arc few surviving him who hesitate to say that "Jack was a very good fellow and would fre quently go out of his way to do a good turn." Mr. Monaghan was born in Minersville in 18311, and in 1873 ho camo to town with his parents. Like thousands of other boys bom in tho coal fields ho commenced at the bottom round of the iaddor, as a slatepicker in tho breaker of tho Shonandoah City colliery, but after a short service took up the cigar making trade. After a service of two yoars in this lino lie abandoned Hand secured a position as chute boss iu theShcuaudoah City colliery. Soon after he became chute boss in the Indian Hidgo breaker and held it until he was appointed Justico of the Peace iu the First ward to succeed Edward Monaghan, de ceased. Tills step formed tho foundation for Mr. Munaghan's great success. When the term undor his appointment expired he was elected to tho position without opposition and re-elected twice after under similar condi tions. Ho was very prosperous and founded business in addition to the routine iu tho lino of his position as a justico that made him quite well-to-do. For a time he was a passenger agent for tho Pennsylvania Hail road Company and also had quite an exten sive field as a broker in steamship tickets. While always open-handed aud never faltering to respond to a cry of distress, ho saved sullieient to purchase a comfortable home for his family and invest in several properties that will be a source of rovenuo to them now that ho has been called away Two yoars ago last August Mr. Monaghan was appointed ono of tho Inspectors of Im migration at Philadelphia. Upon receiving the appointment ho resigned his commission as Justico in favor of Jeremiah Toomoy, who had been his Constable and 0110 of his warmest friends for several years. Although his post of duty was at somo distance from this placo Mr. Monaghan retained his homo hero and spent a few days with his family at frequent intervals. Ho also maintained an iutorost in tho welfare of tho scenes whoro tho foundation of Ills success rested and 011 election days he was always around "to givo somo friend a lift." "Squire Jack" was a character of the town that will bo missed, notwithstanding he has not been among tho peoplo as much during the past two yoars as foruiorly. Ho was of the jovial kind of man that wins and holds friendship and long after his death his friends will enjoy the recollections of some of his pastimes. In business ho was shrewd and diligent, but lie always fuuud time to "have fun witli the lxy" and con tributed liberally to the expense, although a total abstainer. He also took delight in sports.
