Secretary of the Treasury Addresses
Maryland Bankers.
HIS PROPHECY AND HIS PROMISE.
Declares That an Adequate Tariff Bill Will
Soon be Fassod and 'that the Admin
istration Will Pass the Currency
Circulation on a Solid Basis.
Cumberland, June 4. The Maryland
Hankers' association held its final ses
sion yesterday, and the exercises were
concluded last night with a banquet.
at which Secretary of the Treasury
Lyman J. Gasre and Comptroller flH
the Currency James II. Eckels were
the principal speakers. The resolutions
adopted oppose "the free coinage oi
silver and every debasement of out
ourrency," and declare that the trut
Interests of our country will be best
served by Its rigid adherence to the
gold standard of value. A committee
of five was appointed to urge upon the
legislature the passage of a good bank
ing law.
The banquet was held at the Queen
fJity hotel, nnd the post prnndiat part
having come, Governor Lowndes in
troduced Mr. James Ramsay, the newly
tleoted president of the assooiatlon,
who created much merriment when he
said: "I IihiI greatness thrust on me to
c!'v. T got the only olilce the people of
Allcsnny county did not want."
Secretary Gage wag greeted with pro
longed npplnuse. He said:
"I did not come to make a speech. 1
feel a sense of kinship toward this
place and I fool a sense of kinship to
ward you. the bankers of Maryland."
He then referred to his birthplace,
describing it as such a place as Cum
berland Is. with hills touclil nip flip
horizon on all sides and a placid stream
passing1 by ids door. He continued:
"I am ontlmlstie. There are evi
dences to justify it. I found evidence
of It today. One of your citizens tool,
me out to drive, and we conversed
with several citizens. One was a very
intellectual man. I asked him how
business was. He said "Good." That
man was Judge Sloan. Court had just
adjourned. Reference was made here
this evening- to my recent address in
Cincinnati. Let me repeat here "the
substance ot the conclusion of that ad
dress. The prophecy made then will
be fulfilled. The promise I am abso
lutely certain will be. The prophecy
was that both bodies of congress would
soon put through an adeuuate tariff
bllll, and the promise was that the ad
ministration would be faithful to the
task Imposed upon it of putting the
currency of the country on a sound,
enduring and solid basis."
Governor Lowndes, In introducing
Comptroller ot the Currency Eckels,
said that his manly words rang through
the country like a trumnet lilnnt Tnoi
fall when he pleaded for good govern
ment and sound currency. Among
other things Mr. Eckels said:
"It has bopomf nnnnlnr tlirni,Min,tt
the south and west to decry the bank
ing Intel ests. These sections have been
Injured by rnlslnsr that huo nnd nrv."
- Referring to the south as the sec
tion with the best resources the sun
ever shone unon hp Rnlil Hint- i.anai,an
of the devastation of war they had not
yet gathered unto themselves that sur
plus capital, ana they must need bor
row money for their development. The
Interests ot the south and west, he
3ald, would be promoted by better
banking facilities. Comptroller Eokles
referred felicitously to the bankers ot
Maryland. He said: "I never trouble
any one that does not trouble me. No
banker In Maryland has given me any
trouble whatever in my ofllcial life."
Senator Wellington, In a vigorous ad
dress, which was punctuated with ap
plause, predicted the early passage ot
the tariff bill. He referred to the
"sturdy manhood of one Democrat In
the COUlltrv." which helnml mlilitlv r
wards making It impossible to debase
tlio ourrency.
