LABOR DEPRESSION. Second Bay’« Session of tho Cowtres gional Committee. Mr. J* Yoons Scammon Speaks at Con siderable Length, OatuM of tho Paulo of 1873—More Our * ronoy Needed, Van B. Hltfffins and J, ZL O, Forrest Also Have a Hearing. Mlcr Wbieh Sone «f the Professional Agitators Dave a Show. The second day’s ssssloo of the Congressional Committee to Inquire into Uie causes of depres sion in labor and stagnaUon In bustneas was held b( Uie Tremoat House, in this city, yester day, the venerable Chairman, Mr. Hendrick 11. Wright, at the head of Uie Board. Some of Uie solid men of Uie city having had Uictrsay upon Uio subject under InvcsUgation, there was an appearance of the Socialistic element yesterday, mixed with a sprinkling of theorists and croak ers. It was quite delightful to see some of the corucr-stono sophistries of these men, upon which are built their flimsy superstructures, pulled to pieces ami destroyed by Bhcrwln, of Illinois, nnd Dickey, of Ohio. There was a strong Impression existing in the mind of Mr. Wright, and perhaps oUier mem bers of the Commission, that Chicago was cov ered with mortgages, that Its citizens were alt bankrupt or about to become so, and Uiat tho city, though fairly prosperous at the present time, was so temporarily, ond that It would soon sink hack into Uio black abyss of bankruptcy and ruin In which they hod hoped to find her. These opinions were somewhat shaken by the statements of’Mcssrs. Gage, Randolph, and others. Kit, J. TODNG SCAMMON, who came hero In 1835, made the tint state ment. Mr. Scammon stated that bo was a law yer by profession, but bad been engaged in banking and general business since that time. Mr. Wright wanted Mr. Scammon to giro a general Idea of the depression In this country since 1875, If there had been any. Mr. Scammon said there had been on almost universal depression hero since 1873. In his judgment It commenced in 1872, when wo had premonitory symptoms of what was coming then. Id the tall of 1873 we wore enabled to bridge over tho chasm only by the aid of the Government. The great demand for money •here was to move tho crops. Wo wanted all the money wo could get, generally In the fall of the year, to purchase the cereals, the hogs, and the beeves, and to fatten them. After the crops had been moved tho money collected in the great money centre, which was New York City. After the crops were moved money became abundant. It re mained abundant until the' (all of the year again. In 1873 the New York banks could not send the money that belonged to us, bcnco came a depression. That was in tho fall of 1873, which wo all knew was relieved by the de posit of $5,000,000 by the Government in New York. That enabled us to move the crops for that year. When tho next fall came the busi ness and the population of the country had In creased and the demand for money hod Increased. Money that had been circulating In tho West returned to New York. The de posit of $5,000,000 had been returned to tho Government. The Government was not dis posed to make soy further deposits In the banks af Now York. They had been relieved, and they wore In no such Imminent danger ns caused them to call upon tho Government again. On tho contrary, they thought it was for their In terest to allow a scarcity of money. When Chi cago business men demanded the money to bo .returned to tho Northwest to enable us to move our crops, they could not do it. They could not return tho money which belonged to us. TOB BANKS ALL DTtOKB, AND DISASTER CAMB npon us. He sold now, as he said then, that the disasters of 1878 were caused Ijy a refusal of the Government to make the volume of cur rency commensurate with the wants uf the peo ple. From one-quarter to one-third of the labor of this country was thrown out of employment. This stopped so many of the Industrial estab lishments of the Northwest ami of the country ftncrally that at least ono-quarler to one bird ot the people were thrown out of employment, and from ‘ that time until lost fall a largo portion- of the community bad been living, not upon what they were earning, but upon what they had on hand. During Mr. Scamraon’s long statement, ho said there woa no such thing os over-produc tion, provided the power of distribution kept pace with tho production. This country, ho said, had never been so prosperous as from 1805 to 1806, during which period there was plenty of money. Ho called attention to the largo de linquent-tax list of Chicago, the publication of which annually cost not less than SBO,OOO. At present wherever there was ony business pros perity In Chicago it was exceptional; neverthe less Uicro been an Improvement in the aspect of affairs. The bankers of Chicago had been prac tically so many pawnbrokers’ shops, taking col lateral and advancing a small portion of their values. His opinion was Hint the main business of the country would be done on trust and not on Interest-bearing notes and money collaterals. Mr. Cowgll), a member of the Committee, asked the Chairman how wide a range was to bo allowed to these statements. Hu was of opin ion that tho resolution under which tho Com mission was created did not contemplate going Into all these remote causes of distress. Mr. Wright said Uio widest rouge had been given to the statements of gentlemen yesterday, and It was not Uie intention of Uie Committee to limit Uiem now. Mr. Bcammon proceeded to give bis views farther, lie believed that ALL OTHER IMtOI'BRTY WAS A SLATE TO HONEY. This country had always been ailllctcd by slav ery of sumo kind, and one of the phases of it was Uio slavery of everything to money. In 1873 laborers were paid from $1.50 to 1.75 per day. Since that time Uiero had been •n Improvement, but the condition of labor was not now In a healthy state. In his oplnlou there nevor had been but ono way out of this depression, and Uuit wos to Increase the volume of the currency of the country. It was hts opinion Uiut Uie volume ol currency should bo gradually increased to double what It was now. In reply to a quesUon by Mr. Dickey, a mem ber of the Committee, be stated that the vol ume of currency of the country should at least be increased to $1,603,000,000. Men had, since the deoressiou, become land poor; Uie great majority of them had been unable to pay their taxes, and vast quantities of land had been for feited to Uie State. Heal estate had been una ble to carry Its own taxes and assessments,—ex cept a few favored or particular pieces of land, such as some on Slate street, fur Instance. In Hyde Pork, where he lived, “the suburb” ol Chicago, be thought, a place where prop erty had, before the panic, been greatly In demand, you coala not now give it away. The sales of property when the depression bo- Tan created a plethora of money in the banks, through the Receivers, etc. The money was all In banks, but did not belong to the bankers; It belonged to their creditors, as Mr. bcammon •aid to Sol Smith. “ 1 find, Bcammon,” said Sol, •• that there Is no money outside of Uio tanks.” “Yes, Smith,” replied Mr. Bcammon, “ but It don’t belong to you; It belongs to vour creditors.” Mr. Bcammon next gave the Com mittee an account of Uio depression In rent mid price of a piece of property on State and Ran dolph streets, but the intrinsic value of this property was not less but greater now than ever before, for Chicago was a largo city and Its business was greater. ITe then gave some in stances of prosperity, but Uicy were exceptional, be tala; the great mass of people and property bad been lo a bad way. In answer to a query by Mr. O’Connor, of couth Carolina, bo said the country had really bo use at all lor gold and silver except for mer chandise, and that Uie currency of Uie country should bo paper. Money was purely an arti ficial thing. The credit of the United States Government was sufficient to make fiat money. Mr. Morton, of North Carolina, asked Mr. Bcammon 11 bo would have this fifteen hundred Bullions of dollars convertible into com. He would. Ho would have the Government Issue a convertible bond bearing a small Interest. There was undoubtedly a great depression lu business hero In Chicago. Air. Martin remarked that everything looked Yery prosperous to him now. Mr. Scarartion said that one usually derived bis Ideas of those things by comparison. There was much property in Chicago that would not awl entire for what Uio buildmga on It cost, lie did not think Uiat too much bud been paid lor rebuilding Chicago after the great fire. If these men hud not paid too much for theso buildings, why was It, asked Mr. Martin, that those meu who bad erected them had become insolvent. Air. Bcammon attributed their failure to the (rest paulg 0(1876, and cot to Um results of Uio great Arc. Uut for Uie iloorcaaloo tn busi ness all Itii! buildings erected by Mr. Scammon would bnvo been occupied ntid he would bavo not been forced to ruin. In reply to a question by Mr. Bhcrwln, Mr. Scatmnon stated that ALL PANICS WBItB CREATED BT A CONTRACTION OP TUB CUtmBNCT, and tbe panic ot 1873 was no exception. When* ever the contraction of the currency began, it was like a coming pestilence. Fear killed more than the pestilence itself. Tho apprehension of a scarcity of money caused a vast deal of hoard ing hr everybody. He would have the Govern ment Issue its own paoer for every dollar oi expenditure by the Government, lie would have HicGoyerumcbtuscull the coin that came in, not demanded for lur'own paper, In paying for tho Government bonds, ills opinion was there was no demand for gold and silver In this country for money; everybody preferred a National bauk note or a Treasury note to coin. I hero had been a failure of some fifteen or twenty banks hi Chicago alnco 1873, caused by a shrink age of securities. „ .. ~ Mr. Cowgill asked If Mr. Seamraon thought It would bo a ludldous plan to conduct a banking business by LOANING MONIT WITHOUT BBOURITT. Mr. Bcammon replied that ho thought It would be just as judicious os to sell a man a stock of goods ou credit, without security, lie himself had made most money loaning in that war. He thought personal security wu enough. A hanker was merely a merchant. The hank ers ot England followed this plan. Speaking again of the need of an increase In the currency, Mr. Scammon said tbe currency of every country should he just as commensurate with the country’s Industrial demands as Uie blood lu a man’s veins and his food should ho with Uie size of Uie man and Um work ho had to do. “ Now, on this point," said Mr. Uickey, *• whnt do you think should be the amount of currency In Ibis country I l ' “And bow much should It be Increased I” added Mr. O'Connor. “Well, I suppose the Lord knows; I don’t,” was Mr. Scammon’srcjotndcr. lie proceeded to sav, however, that he did not think there should ho any limitation to tiie currency of a country other than Unit imposed by Uie laws oi supply ami demand. The legis lation and press of this land had been, tn Ids opinion, on a wrong tack for about twenty-five years. The nature of things was such in a civilized country like this that business must ho done on trust—on paper. A sublime confidence of our fcllowmon was a fundamental basis of 111c,—tho basis upon which government and society rested.—and the thing, in bis opinion, to bo done was (or the Government to pass a very simple law, making enough money to render It possible for a man to convert his property nt any time Into actual money, with Uie provision Unit Uie Government might at any time call in this currency and substitute coin. Then, ho thought, there would be no demand for coin. COL. J. K. C. FORREST, for forty years a resident of Chicago, and a writer for the press, gave his Ideas relative to the depression in the country mid the .dangers still ahead. Secretary Sherman was now In flating the currency all the time by every dollar of silver and every dollar of greenbacks created. A Government could not go on rooking money always, without coming to an end. The only remedy was the creation of a central National bank to discount the paper, so as to keep up an equilibrium between money and property. Labor and property were very much depressed In Chi cago at the present time. For Mr. Itandolpti, Secretary of the Board of Trade, to come up hero before this Committee and state that this city was In a very prosperous condition was tho most ridiculous thing ho ever heard of. WILLIAM lIALLBT, printer and publisher of Chicago, read a some what lengthy statement to the Committee, giv ing his views upon tho subject under considera tion. The great Journals of Chicago repre sented the energy, growth, and power of the West, hut they also belonged to Wall street, the National, banks, and wore controlled bv the successful and the sclflsbclnsses. Tub Chicago Tiudunb especially misrepresented them. Hool estate In Chicago was worthless, labor was para lyzed, ami money was dear. Theoretically money was 5 or 0 per cent per annum, but prac tically It was 0 to 10 per cent per month. There was no encouragement to enterprise tor the want of money, ami there wos much suffer ing among the workingmen. There was at least 20 per cent of those who belonged to the print ers’ craft, of which bo wos a member, without work to-day. Thu principle of taking from the rich and giving to the poor, which was advocated nv the Communists, was certainly not less un just and cruel than the practice of rending the earnings of the poor from their hands to give to the rich. Too sudden a contraction of the cur rency was the cause of the present depression. The workingmen mortgaged their lives and bodlcs to the rich. What was wanted was free education, free land, free labor, and free money. The Secretary of the Treasury claimed that tile National debt was being rapidly reduced, where as It was being Increased. This was not shown hv dollars, but by the purchasing power of the dollar. A dollar to-day would purchase three times as much land and other property as it would ten years ago, and this was the secret of the burden. The workingmen wanted a‘free ballot, which was denied them-now. They were bulldozed, ami not given time to vote now. Public lands should bo free to pre-emptors. Millions of acres hail been given to railroads, and he thought the citizen should have an equal chanco. By free money ho meant that they should have the money of the Government. Trades-Uulous had been denounced as tyrannic al, when the doctors, the lawyers, tho manu facturers, etc., all had their organizations. Besides tluxt. there was the Board ot Trade hero organized to rob both tho producer amt tile purchaser. Nothing was said against that. Ho wanted the Government to establish a Labor Bureau. We were junt emerging from barbarism, otherwise this would have been pro vided for botorc. JOHN n. KBDZIB bod resided In Chicago for thirty years, and was a real-estate dealer. The cause of depression was two-fold. One was the municipal, corpo rate, and simitar Indebtedness, with private In debtedness, and an expansion of Uio circulating medium of all countries, and Uie oUicr was the demonetization of silver. This latter act caused a contraction of Uie circulating medium, which was Injurious to business. This, in brief, was the cause of hard times, and the two com bined produced these results. By figures ho produced, Mr. Kedzle claimed that the taxon the real value of property la Chicago did nut exceed 1 per cent per annum. Thu failure of Jay Cooke & Co. was Uie spark that started the conflagraUon that destroyed the llnauccs of the country. He was opposed to high taxes, which In some eases amounted to a confiscation of property, lie was nut lu favor of an income tax. van u. niaaiNS, who came lu 1837, stated that, in his opinion, Uio cause of labor depression dated back to the prodigal times of Uie War. There was much idleness engendered Uicu; Uiero was a great destruction of property, and there was an enor mous indebtedness Incurred. Ju 1800 ami 1801 Uiero was a general prostrotloii, and there was no business. When the Government began to Issue money the times began to mend, mid af ter a time all vacant buildings were occupied, and Uiero was a revival of trade, so that In 1803 Uiero was employment lor everybody, and prices of all agricultural products were increased. There were probably thirteen millions of people employed at work. Uf tblsnumbcr 0,000,000 were agriculturists, and 7,000,000 were engaged lu other pursuits. This woe on a basis of a population of 40,000,000 of people. All Uieso were at work. When Uio contraction of Uie currency begau Uieso men were thrown out of employment, until there was a widespread and universal depression. TUB I’ROULKU OF CIVILIZATION was to keep the people employed profitably. Tim actual amount of money in circulation to* day was not enough to pov Urn laborers of the country for sixty days. Wo bad 1000,000,000. Tim secret of a country’s prosperity was In keep ing Its laborers employed at remunerative rates. It was not by economy that & nation became rich. Tim Indian was Urn most economical Inhabitant of American soil. Vet tm was not rich. If laborers were paid 10 cents per day the country would enjoy Just ono-tenth Urn prosperity widen It would enjoy If it paid $1 a day. A country’s prosperity was always In proportion to the wages paid the laboring men. The amount of money needed by the country depended upon circum stances. If only 10 cents a day was paid to the laborer, only ono-tenth Dm volume of currency would bo required that would bo necessary If ho was paid $1 a day. Labor should regulate urn amount of our currency. Wo could not have a sound currency on an unsound basis, lie would moke a currency that was redeemable in cum or In convertible Interest-bearing bonds. Thu remedy for the Ills that existed—lo-wit: the stagnation In business—was to stimulate enter prises by abundant money. During the War It look two thousand millions of dollars to do the busi ness of the country,«idle now t lu*re was no more than eight or nine hundred millions, a small portion of which was in the bauds of the people. la answer to a question by Mr. Sherwln, Mr. Higgins said ho would be always willing to trust this financial question to the bunds of Congress. If this were not so, then the basts upon which our Government was founded was wrong, lie would much raDier leave Dm question to Con gress than to Die 2,000 bankers who controlled It now. UANKINO WAS AM INGENIOUS METHOD OF HOP- lIINU THU U.NWAUY, although lio wuul(l sav that it wu the best ays* turn ol banking ever devised. Xt more mouvy was wauled* asked Mr. Cow THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE: WEDNESDAY, JULY 3D, 187!t-TWELVE PAGESI' #ll, why did not the National bunks furnish It .aa they had unlimited newer to do so? Mr. Higgins aaid they were restrained from motives of prudence, ami they would not outage in business at all. If ho had had $5,030.- 000 during the last feW yearn he wottld lock it Up and nit noon it. In his opinion the contrac tion of tiic currency had resulted In the present depression of business. The ner capita In France of money in circulation wu about $55, while In this country it was probably from sl2 to S2O. There was not probably more than lour or flvu hundred millions of dollars afloat, the balance being hoarded or locked tip In the banka. Hie passage of the Resumption act alarmed Die people, and they gave away tiidr property, the banks failed, ond a panic ensued. Had this result been accomplished gradually there might nut have been any disastrous re sult. lie thought the 4 per cent bonds would ultimately come Into circulation to sotno extent, and be used tn exchange for property, but he did not consider this a legitimate currency such as the people ought to have. MR. D. R. BTRXBTBIt, a Printer, and President of the Trade and Labor Union of Chicago, representing twenty-seven societies, appeared before tho Committee and read a written state ment embracing the statistics contained In the last report to tbe Trade and. Labor Union by tbe various societies embraced In It, showing the average weekly earnings when steadily em ployed, lime lost during the roar, reduction of wages since 1872, average rent per month, edu cational expenses, Including newspapers, and the sanitary condition of workshops. The general average of Uie cost of living of all these societies Is summarized as follows: Groceries, $337.26 per annum; clothing, $(91,(11; fuel, $33.3(1; rent, $75.27; recreation, $1U.74; education, $11.(H: total expenses, $-145.50. Average excess of expenditure over average earnings, S7U. 'Hie above statement of the cost of living divided by the number of living days tn the year, 305 days, and also, divided by the number of persons per family,—live,—allows each person per' day for subsistence 13 cents, clothing 3 3-5 cents, fuel 1 4-5 cents, rent 4 cents, recreation MU cent, education 3-5 cent; total expenditure per day, 23 cents. Mr. Streeter stated that the condition of labor in this city was deplorable, but not as bad ns in the winter, lie knew Unit people In Chicago actually died of starvation, and the circum stances were published In the city papers. There was no attention whatever paid to the ventila tion of shops, and the* printing-oillccs were In that respect deplorable. .Mr. Streeter thought Uiat the recent improvements in machinery was an tujurv to working men. ilo believed tho chief cause of the present condition of things In Chicago was the hcartlessncss of the aristocratic classes, who did not give the laboring classes os much tbouglit as they did the heathen tn India. They were totally Indifferent to their welfare and comfort. The newspapers catered to tho wealthy classes, who advertised, and were op posed to the working classes. Tho way to pre vent machinery from Injuring the workingman would be to have the Government own it, and operate It, and employ and pay the men. Thus the men would have the profits earned by tho machine. Another remedy was eight hours 1 labor for a day’s work, compulsory education, a repeal of the laws puuisblng those engaged in strikes, and other remedies suggested in Uio platform of the Socialist party seriatim. p. u. m’logak next took the stand. Mr. McLogan is a printer by trade. He elated that (he wages of his crait had been reduced at least 50 per cent from what they were in 18712. He Oellevcd a remedy Would be effected by enforcing the eight-hour system. “Would you have the employers par \ou ten hours* pay for eight hours’ world ” asked Mr. Wright. Mr. McLogan said It was his opinion and the opinion, ho thought, of all of his class that the workingmen should receive eight hours’ pav for eight hours* work. The abolition of prison labor was one of evils which the labor ing men ot Chicago hud to contend with. Hu said tho market was overstocked with tabor, and that the progress of machinery during the last twenty tears had been such that many men hud been thrown upon the market. Ho had never beard the word “tramp” used In. this country prior to 18?3. He was In lavor of the Homestead law ami la favor of the Government furnishing the citizen the means of going to work. Mr. McLogan thought If the currency of the country was inllatcd the condition of’the workingmen would bo nmeb improved. MIL C. M’AULIPK, a printer, made a statement to the Committee la which ho claimed that machinery was at present a curse to the workingmen. The time would come when it would bo a blessing to mankind. When a machine became a monopoly It was un Injury to the poor man. C. F. KBIUttOAM W9S the representative of Uio shoemakers. There was at least 83 per cent of the shoemakers out of employment, and there was no prospect of on Improvement. Near machinery was belt)*; constantly Introduced, and men were bo r»g gradually crowded out of their places. The prisout at Joliet, 111., Wanpun, Wls„ Michigan City, Ind., and Jefferson City, Mu., were also doing much to take away tne work of the shoe* maker. The contract system of convict labor was the prlncloal obstacle in the wav of the workingman. Skilled and unskilled labor was much depressed. QKOROB ROGERS, an Iron'tnoldcr. said the people lo bis lino had been reduced (15 per cent lu their wages since 1873. At this season of the year most of the muldcrs were busy, but In the winter there was a fulling olf. The average of the raw material consumed In his business bad been reduced In price fully SOU per cent, and the wages were re* duced also. lie had been a tramp, and had been retused a drink of water when ho was looking far labor to support his wife and children. The word “tramp” bad never been heard In this country prior to 1873. There were many honest men going through mu country looking for work. After finding out Unit ho could not make an honest living at his trade, he abandoned It and went at something else, lie did not believe In Uio co-operative system of running all Industrial and mecbaulcal affairs. There wore, for Instance, 80,000 em ployes in the Rost-GIHco Department of the United States who are supposed to be Influ enced to vote the Republican ticket. If the telegraphs, railroads, steamboats, etc., belonged to the Government, too, the employes of those InstltuUon would bo owned by the party In power, and practically deprived of the right of franchise. The Committee then adjourned to meet at 13 o’clock to-day. FUNDING DEBTS.
