was to have general charge of the ofllce and
inside business. At that time , and for sev
eral years afterwards , during the Ufa of

ployed as bookkeeper by the firm.
Those were the days when Mr. Albright
was making more money than he knew what
to do with. Real estate speculation was
at Us highest pitch , and Mr. Albright was
a leader In the business. It Is asserted that
his firm made f50,000 ton deals In one day

Mr. Albright alleges that he his been de
frauded out of fully J 100,000 , and he ask *
the court for judgment against the defend
ants for that amount. He also asks for an

DANER or A FALSE BUT POPULAR IDEA
Comptroller of tlio Currency Call * Atten
tion to n Great Ulflleulty In the Way of
SaUsfuctorj- Monetary
Speech nt Cleveland.
CLEVELAND , Sept. 20. Among the spealc-
crs today at the fourth annual convention of
the Ohio Hankers association was Comptroller
or the Currency James II , Ccklcs.
After reviewing the history of the national
banks and declaring that Oio system under
which they were conducted was the best
that could bo devised and one which would
be changed only when circumstances made a
change necessary , Comptrjli-jr UclU'ls ' laid
that the problem was lo show a more elastic
currency and still maintain It solely tipon
bonds deposited to secure the same. Ths
serious difficulty In the way was the Ideate
to which so many people clung that It was
essential to the people's ' prosperity that there
always bo a. large volume of money re
gardless of Us representation o ( Intrinsic
value.
Ha then said : "Our colonial history U
replete with attempts to make the people
rich through , a great volume of currency
which had neither representative nor Intrlnslo
worth. It Is a historic financial failure and
distress. Later , under the articles of federa
tion , Is recorded the earns attempt and tha
sama series of failure and financial loss.
There was scarcely a state In the union be
fore the war but whoso history Is marked
by efforts to enrich a people through such
currency. If Ida result of such attempts was
so prolific of ruin to the people then , why
will they not be accompanied by equal ruin
now ? The lawn of political economy do not
change with changing ages or changing
people and the same causes find fruition In
the same effects whether Hie century bo
the eighteenth or the nlnet'onth ; Ihu form
of government colonial or republican.
"There Is no sentiment embodied In the
laws of money and no matter how great may
be the volume of the currency If each and
every dollar of that currency Is not of value
to pass current In the world of business
It cannot add to the blessing * of iho people.
To bo productive of ( ho people/ * good It
must , whether of gold , silver or paper , In
the very order of things , bo of unquestioned
and unvarying value , and when called Into
requisition discharge , without the aid of
legal tender acts at home' ur nbroal , tha
obligations of the holdcrE. Uul with such
a currency our people have yet much to
learn , and most Important Is the lesson that
no matter how abundant It may be It will
not find Its way to these who are wanting In
credit. It can clvo no relief to those who
have neither the means to pay the obliga
tions , or having It cast suspicion upon their
willingness to maintain their financial In
tegrity by making their abiding place th
homes of all the financial vagaries which are
bred by those who have no property of their
own and are unmindful of the property rights
of their fellows. "
Trouble to serious , that It threatened to
break up the organization came when the
bankers elected oillcera. John Whltelaw of
Cleveland wan nominated for president by
the committee , whereas. HOD. J. Sullivan of
this city was considered by his friends as
entitled to the honor uxm n precedent which
WHS broken at Usl year's meeting. Mr. Sul
livan iiuloted the storm by withdrawing front
the conical. The annual meeting closed to
night with a banqutt.
