ING SLOW] W-MAKING IN N 8TAE TN onal Legislation and the Policy or the Treasury Drought on tril Woe? of the Rusiness World-The Nee1 or SI rmng anl Well-mnanuaged llankcs. NEjw Yomii, Decemnber l.--Villiain L. Trenholm, who was Comptroller of the Currency under the Cleveland Ad i'ninistration, reviewed the financial i situation in a conversation yesterday with a reporter of the World. "The situation is complex," said he. "It has been brought about by the simultaneous culnination of ma -y dis tinct tendencies, e1ch d ie to inl tiences proper and legitimate enough, perhaps, within their several spheres, but which, coming into full play together, prod tce financial embarrassient and conimer 4jal distress Of course, 110 adequate analysis of such a situation can be made within the compass of an inter view, but it may be illustrated by wiat occurs on some line of transit where numbers of persons are hurrying out of town after a day's work or pleasure. It is quite proper for any one to go home. It is legitimate to be in a i rry to get there. The thoroughfares ex ist for that purpose and no individi:d is in any way responsible for ayhody else; yet from mere concurren*c! of numbers every bridge or ,erry is '11t. to become gorged. If all are content to go slowly the mass ),iss; if soine are too eager others are incon ven iiiceI or delayed; if there is a general rusi disaster is inevitable. "Everybody knows that for imany years there his been every atitumni a constantly increasing throng of settle ments urging their way through the banks and other litpuidating institu tions of the country, and in order that they might all get through some had to wait; now a wait.ing settlement is i renewal loan or a deferred payiment. In ordinary years some settlenentH Cani wait on others and in time all get through, but this year the crowd was too large, the preasure from Lehioa was too strong, and. consequeintly many are wedged in who woudi glillN pass on and many more are still sitf fling to get through who cmnnot. "CAs in the pressure on the bridge, sc in this pressure to liquidate, the weak go under and even the strong are dis tressed. "You ask why this year the o-li iila tions have been attended with s:o inl Itch t-zouible. We]], inl the first, pkave, fihere seems to be a general teinieny inl voi miercial affairs towards a condit ion which p)recil)itates panics at intervals of aboit eight or ten years, tIll exaclt time being in each case (etermInined by special causis. Last year we had a close squeeze, and we should prolibly have escaped through this year it' it, had not been for the speculation startd d i tie spring an(d kept alive through1 the summer by Congressional legisl:i tion and the avowed policy of t,1 treasury. The changes iri tih ltarilf seeied to afford a safo anid hit iniaito basis for a speculative iiiiwrtat ion to' certain foreign goods. 'I'e silvtr piir chase Act was intended to enlarge i h voluime of currenc, and was Cx peI iI in tlhat, way to raise allI pr ices, lut. S pecially the prices of agi-ul Ilral prii ducts. Itence' inevitabily thi:t~ .\et tended to excite slimetila(ion in Ihuse produlcts, and inl illetalliv silvei. "Excessive liinports onilo- ii onei 1hand1,. restricted exports on the- other, pro duced transfers oh capit il abiroadt, iul to that extent reducea'd t he'1 suply of i loanal e lu nds inl this C e matry, with i which to 1lip luidaite thle a ut tul iisett IC ment, while the volu me of these set ',e ments was enlar:ge* Ili by the hi ghier p)rices for produice ai (1idfo secur m'it ies.

There is notinmg appiarely l that the Governmitent or t hat,' Congreiss can do to help the putblic now. littier may very easily make matters wVorse by ill-considered eltTorts. l.nifor't.un a tc' ly the course of legislation bias not been shaped ini accordance withI the natural laws of governing these nuial ters. When the tariff was unider dis cuission in Congress there aippears to have been no0 attenition gi ven1 to its probable effect in aggravating the' regum lar autumnlal st ringencyv iin minv, otherwise other (lates woulit havie bween fixed for its going into eilfeet. No one', when tile sitlver' purchiase law was he lng passed through the several stages of its eniactmenlt seemed to hiavo at temptedi a forcast of its effect in keep ing back exp)orts. The immensclie expend(itures of' the Gov'ernment poured into the channels of circulation, as the Secretary of the Treasury sho ws, .1 8,000,000, or $22.700), 000 a week, between .July 1 and Octo ber 1, a p)eriodl of the year when It was not yet neededl for the annual lIquida tions, and therefore whlen it could be utilized only in speculation. Last year the treasury was much more hlelpful because the Secretary wisely resistedi the early outcry f'or money andl( madlei his disburseents just when they were most effective. "It is a dangerous thing, any way, for the business of this great country to be dlependent upon the conduct of' tIhe treasury. The proper. and onily safe or-. ' anzation of Industry is to haive ~rong, well managedl banks in suich ra,Ins to the miercantle commiunity as to be able to forecast their needs anti with such powers as to be ablIe to su p ply those needs. A Governmient cur rency must produce alternations of plethora and stringency in loans; nol increase of volume, whether graual or spasmodic, can prevent that 'ffect, because it Is the product or t.he natur al laws which govern such things. "I see that an effort is beinst ma1de t) use the present state of trade~as an ar' gument for the free coInage of1 silver. ilope nothing of a precipitate charac *toi will be attempted in the way oIf leg islation, The present condition Is a: moittedly a condei ation of our past monetary legislati5fl.
