The extensive litigation growing out of the
Capital National bank failure received a
boost today wlmn the director ! of the de
funct Institution went Into the district court
ulth a petition to have the cases brought
Bj..iliut thorn by dei > oiltors to recover the
ninount of their claims removed to the
United States circuit court. In tholr peti
tion the directors RTO ! the creditors of the

they propose to sot up when the cases
lln.uly roino to trial.
„ When the Individtial depositor * commenced
isuh , agntn.sl the director * of the banlc they
nllogod In tholr petitions that the directors ,
In making the cinnrtorly reports of the re
sources nnd liabilities of the bank , failed to
sot forth It * true condition : that tholr re
ports showed that tholr resource * were
larger than they really wcro , and that the
nssots were snmllor than they actually
were , and that the directors cither made
these reports with n deliberate purpose to
tlofranu the creditors or else they wcro
criminally negligent In allowing thoru to bo
IIKlllo.
Tlio directors In tholr petition fllod today
ns jrt that n controversy exists under the
interpretation of the national banking act ;
that the plaintiffs' alleged cause of action
rests upon the requirements of the laws of
thu United States and that the plaintiffs
rlaiin the right to sno and recover damages
from the directors without any forfeiture of
the charter and without the authority of
either the comptroller of the currency or the
receiver of the bank. The directors claim
tliut they nro not personally liable to the de
positors and that the state courts have
no jurisdiction to dctonnno the points of
law ratsoJ In the case and that In determin
ing the Issue between the depositors and the
directors there necessarily arises a federal
question to be decided by the United Status

TABOR TALKS ON SILVER

Bonn of Colorado ,
CENSURES CLEVELAND AND CARLISLE
Fnrora it 8llr r Substitute for th Slierman
T Picture * the 1'onilbllUy of
Strnniloil Industrie lit the
Centennial Stnte.
Hon. H. A. W. Tnbor , ox-United States
senator from Colorado , was In the city jev
tordny on a flying trip pertaining to private
business mutters. Ho wa aocn by n UF.R
representative , who risked him to talk about
the situation In Colorado In particular , anil
the silver quoHllon In general.
"It's really too bad to talk about , " said
the senator sadly , ' 'and it looks n * though
nothing \vo cau say will do any good.
Look at the condition wo nro In at
present. Thousands ana thousands of men
leaving Colorado to llml work , nioit ot thorn
trapping It out or going by the box car
route , thosowho bavo families leaving these
families behind , for the most part , to trust
to fortune and charity until their natural
protectors provide moans to care for them.
Between 10,000 and 20,000 men are em
ployed in metalliferous mining In Colorado
alone , and most of these are now out of em *
ploymcnt , whllo nil nro nftoctod disastrously.
The aaino condition of affairs obtains in
other mining states. "What nro wo Rolng
to dot The Lord only knows , unless something -
thing is done very soon. With the sources
of thulr chief maintonanca shut down , what
can the mining states of the west dot
Hurvlvnl of the Stroncoit.
' They can only go under , that's all , with
every industry that belongs to them. It Is
only a question of a short tlmo when nil dt
Colorado's liidu strlcs are llkoly to bo In
the saino position the silver interests now
occupy. No , there have boon but few
failures among Denver's big jobbing houses ,
but they are likely to coma at any tlmo.
Collections are nt a standstill , and It is now
merely a question of the survival of the
strongest , those , cspecl.illy , which have not
made a practice of carrying on a too oxtcn-
sivo credit business in both sales and
purchases.
SooU * n Silver Substitute.
"As to the means of relief , there Is-only
ono way in which It cau bo found , and that
Is through the repeal of the Sherman law
and further legislation by way of leaving
us a substitute that will make money out of
silver : The failure of congress to enact
such a substitute or the ndoptlon of a gold
standard means absolute , complete ruin ,
mul the forcing of the silver interests and
many others into their present position
cannot bo retrieved by the repeal of the
Sherman law. The law is bad cnoygh ,
heaven knows , but its flat repeal without
further recourse for the advocates of
free silver would , bo infinitely worse.
"Wo want silver made Into money. This
statement is so moss-grown that
it sounds like a platitude , but
it is our war cry and cannot bo too
much reiterated. We want a ratio of at
least 15) to 1. That is the ratio of France ,
and it would put silver in this country where
it ought to bo.
' Quo cannot too strongly conilomn the
policy of the administration on this subject.
The spectacle of this government , through
President Cleveland and his authorized
agent , John G. Carlisle , bidding down the
price of silver offering OUJi when 70 is
asked is a sight for gods and men to look
upon and to wcop over. It reduces this
Bre.it nation to the position of an investor In
'job-lots , * to bo gathered in nt as low a
price as the seller in forced to sell at.
'For All the world contains 1 would not
occupy the position in which John G. Carlisle -
lisle stands today. Ho has not only shown
himself a slava to the demands of party and
executive , but he has perjured himself in
the eyes of all mankind nnd overthrown the
record he has taken a lifetime to build up.
How long slnco Mr. Carlisle became a gold
man ? Since Mr. Cleveland offered him the
treasury portfolio , stipulating that a change
of base should bo the price of his favor and
Carlisle accepted , becoming a Cloveiand-
Sherman 'blinotalllst' whun , for twenty
sye.ira , in fact all tils lifo , ho bad been a radi
cal advocate of the double standard. What
explanation can ho possibly give , excepting
that ono which scorns so potent to us all ?
As to Mr. Cleveland's motives , I do not care
to Impugn them.
Hhlilon Ilnucl In Wall Street.
"The man may be conscientious , but there
are millions of people in this country who
will never think so , and who will always be
lle vo that the hidden hand In Wall street is
the power behind the throne which moves
the administration to its present acts. As to
the report that General Harrison said ho
believed President Cleveland to bo consci
entious in his silver policy , I do not bollovo
the ox-president ever said It.
"Concerning the possibility of congress
tampering with the tnrltl at this time , the
prospect is too appalling to think of , and yet
it states us in the face. Wo can only sot our
teotli and wait for the blow that this
huruiaphrodltio congress seems to threaten
tlm country with. It moaus adding annihi
lation to total destruction. " -
Senator Tabor is heavily interested in
mining in Colorado and Old Mexico. It is
not surprising that ho should exhibit strong
feeling oil the subject that is nearest tc
ovcry Coloradoan's heart. As to the talk of
the excited ones at the recent silver conven
tion in Denver , the senator said nothing.

Inspoakingof the feeling in Colorado ho
said :
"Governor Walto to some extent simply

WASHIXOTON , July 20. President
Cleveland is strongly urging upon
domocrntlo senators who aprce with him
on the flnanciiil miostion the noeosslty of
adopting sonio ulotnro rule which will
onixblo the mnjority in the soimto to
rcuuli n vote on questions within a
reasonable timo. Ho realizes thut the
greatest danger in the way of u speedy
repeal of the Sherman law' lies in the
possibility of indolinito iililnitttor in the
scnato. This , it is said , leads him into a ,
state of anxiety that some limit to tlio
possibilities of filibuster should bo
secured. Out of this position on the
part of Mr. Cleveland is said t < grow
considerable conllict between him and
the democratic benators.
It was duo to the absence of any elo-
turo rule anil the inability of the repub
lican majority to udopt one that the
democrats wcro enabled to defeat tlio
force bill during tbo Kifty-llr.st congress.
At that time Cleveland had little sympathy
'
pathy with the fright and anxiety of'tho
southern senators. Ho gave utterance
to no opinion on the subject , and that
was ono of the arguments used against
his nomination among the southern delegates -
gates at Chicago. Tlio .southern sen
ators , however , retain a vivid recollec
tion of the force bill fight and the dan
gers that surrounded them. There is
no term in parliamentary usage more
oistastoful to them than that of eloturo.
Mr. Gorman was the leader in the light
against eloturo at that time and cannot
consistently favor ono now. Ho is be
lieved to be in full sympathy with Mr.
Cleveland on the financial question , but
but it is understood they are utterly at
odds on the question of cloture.
Feeling it to be important to the ful
fillment of his purposes that a vote
should bo forced on the repeal of the
Sherman silver law , Mr. Cleveland will
adhere to the proposition of the adop
tion of a eloturo rule and will do what
ho can to get the democrats and repub
licans who represent his general ideas
as to finance to unite in blocking any at
tempt at filibustering. If a .serious at
tempt ho made to modify the bonato rule
to that end Mr. Gorman will bo found
actively in the opposition. While will
ing to aid in the repeal of the Sherman
law by other moans ho will make on
active and determined light against any
restriction of the timo-Jionored preroga
tive of the southern senators to talk HB
much and as deliberately on any subject
as they desire.
