FEDERAL FINANCES.
The finances of the country are gov-
erned between New York and Wash-
ington. Every statement of conditions,
causes and prospects, if of sufficient
value to command credit for being
near to the root: of national finances,
treats of what is, has been done andis
being done in New York and Wazhing-
ton, reserves and shipments in the
vaults of the two cities, ete. It is a pe-
caliar, yet a perfectly natural condition
that at present, while money is so
scarce in the channels where it is of
greatest benefit to the masses, itislying
in bank vaults in sueh sarplus amounts
that much of it is earning nothing,
That condition is due to lack of busi-
ness ventures and industrial stagna-
tion. People will not draw money out ’
of safety vaults and put in circulation
. by enlarging or renewing enterprises
while there is so little prospect of get-
ting back a profit or even the amount
: brought into use. A New York writer,
in treating of finances as they are’
found at the present time, says:
“The amount of gold in the country
is estimated at $665,000,000,0f which the |
national banks in this State hold
nearly $86,000,000, or about one-eighth.
Nevertheless the New York city banks
with $100,000,000 of specie in their
vaalts, will not part with gold, but
supply orders for export by sending
paper money to the Federal treasury
for redemption. Consequently the
gold in the treasury shows a constant
decrease, and another issue of bonds—
on doubtful anthority—is even now
under consideration. We believe that
this is precisely what the banks are
scheming for. There is no little de-
mand for money for business purposes
that the vaults of the banks are filled |

Tu¥ DEMOCRATIC platform demnnded
‘the repeal of the State bank tax, the
New York World advocated it before
the platform was made, and last week
the Democratic house of representa-
tives voted down a repeal by 170 to
102. The Democrats will not fulfill all
of their pledges and it will please men
of all parties alike that they do not
faifill some of them. Even the Popu-
list congressmen present when the
voté was taken voted against the re-
peal of the bank tax, and in a general
way they are the greatest clamorers
for money by the cart load without re-
gard to stability of value.

George Arthurs, murderer, was called.
When the prisoner stood before the
ecurt to plead he made known to the
court that his name was George
Arthurs Anderson, aad Distriet Al
tcrney Murphy moved to amend by
adding the last name to the indict
ment .
Following are the names cof the
twelve jurors who will have this yoang
man’s life in their hands: Webster
Griffith, John Walcher, john Ott, Vin-
cent Rieg, R. J. Youthers, Jas M.
Towle, Joseph Miller, Jonas J. Yoder,
Martin Seymore, Samuel Pebley, Geo.
i L. Davis and M. D. Bearer. The jury
‘was procurred after having drawn
twenty names. Following are the
names of those who were refused either
because they had formed an opinion or
on account of -concientious scruples in
regard to capital punishment: Sheri-
dan Bennett, Leander Bush, John W.
Engle, Michael Marphy, Edward
Pringle, Robert Moore, M. D. Jones,

Satards y's Proceedings.
The trial of George Arthurs Anderson
for the murder of Thomas Cush, in
Johnstown began at 8:30 o'clock. Dis
trict Attorney Murphy conducted the
‘easesalone. Andersan had for his at-
compel the government to issue more
bonds—and they retain the gold in
order to muke the purchases when the
bonds are offered. - Last week the ex-
ports of gold from New York City
were $5,179,860, bringing the total since
Jannary 1st up tc $47,081,949, and in
the five months the imports have been
only $9,119,104, so that the net loss so
far this year is $87,962,845. Most of this
gold has been drawn from the Federal
treasury. The banks have secared it
by demanding the redemption of the
pape money. At the beginning of
the year the gold in the treasury less
the gold certificates, was $31,335,-
486, or about nineteen millions less
than the $100,000,000 which the secre-
taries have desired to keep on hand as
a reserve. The supply decreased to
$66,813,381 on January 26th. Then $50,-
000,000 of bonds were sold for gold and
the net gold in the treasury increased
until, on March 10th, it was $107,108,
. 7086—or seven millions in excess of the |
customary reserve. Since then the
reserve has been steadily decreasing.
and on Saturday last, to only $78,651,
617; so that the condition of the'treas-
ury itself is actually worse now than it
was five months ago, notwithstanding
the huge fact that the national debt
bearing interest has been increased
