SHARP PRAoTIcE.-Lord's Cincinnati
Detector makes statement, says the
STATE Sentinel, concerning the way in
which some Of the new National Banks
are started in the West, that seems
rather interesting, and we therefore
quote it. aE@
A bank is organized with a nominal
capital of $30O, 1000. The sum of $780,
COO is subscribed and paid in, This is
invested in United States bonds. which
is deposited with the Controller, and
S9O, 900 in currency issued. This is
used indirectly for purchasing other
bonds, and a further installment Of $751;.
600 10 Obtained in currency This is
again used, and other instalnents OF
81, 900 in currency are resolved, and
80 on ad isJiaittfnR Thus the bank
(National) has bona tide capital Of
100000, and secured and Deposited
bonds to the amount of $27l 900, and
has in circulation notes 10 the amount
of $244, 900, Put these together, and
we have $4,000 standing 90 800, 600
Now look at the profits interest on
bonds, equal in currency to S3T $40; in
tersst on circulation, at 5 per cent.
$l4,640l total, $5l, 1901
The accumulation of fictitious capital
in the manner specified By Lords De-
teetor is impvactieable, as We under
stand the matter, unless au amount Of
perjury is committed unparalleled in the
history of finance. We predict that the
bank that undertakes the game with
Secretary McCulloch will End it's char
ter forfeited so quick that it will make
the Directors heads swim. Enougb
money can be made by the institution
in legitimate way without resorting
to "kiting."

SEEPAdE AND RAIS.-The denIzens Of
Cairo and Mound City must have q
pleasant time, living several, indeed
many feet below.high water mark. The
Democrat of Friday says:
The heavy rain of Wednesday night,
together with the seepage, caused the
water inside the levees TO rise some four
inches, and consequently spread itself
over greater amount Of territory and
encroach upon the houses of some of our
citizens 10 an alarming extent Several
families were compelled to move their
goods and chattels 90 more elevated sit
nations, for the water had made its Rp-
pearance upon the first floor, which was
deep enough considering, in many in
stances, that it was the last floor. The
locality suffering the greatest inconve-
nience from the water is situated be-
tween Twelfth and Eighteenth streets
and the Ohio Levee and Edwardsville.
The cutters leading from this neighbor-
hood TO the upper pumps must certainly
be choked up, or else il is evident that
another dump is necessary to keep the
water reduced. = Gls = - q
In relation to Mound City and its in
habitants, the Democrat says;
There was rumor on the streets yes
terday that three men had been caught
in the act of cutting the upper levee.
One report was, that the citizens Of
Mound City had held public meeting in
skiffs, RATS and on another and various

weight Of their citizens, for the purpose
Of some way draining OF the water so
that the inhabitants could once more see
land. After great deal of discussion
it was decided TO send out an exploring
party, and they came to the levee and
seeing the. busy inhabitants of Cairo
as dry as bone, concluded to oct the
. levee and let the superauous water in
upon our city, budthey we're detected and
arrested While the guard were consid
ering what was best 10 be done with
them, they made rush FOE their native
element, the water, and disappeared
from sight One Of the guards stated
that they had scales like 6sh. We Dc
not altogether believe the report.

From the Evening journal. Sent. 5

From the Evening Journal, SEPT. 81
The adviees from New York to- day were favor
able to the holders Of Grain, but the advance in
Freights entirely checked the upward movement
in prices, and, as viii be seen BY the sales else
where given, the leading cereals ruled lower than
on yesterday.
There Was fair amount Of activity in the Flour
market. and previous prices were maintained.
Sales made at from IS 10 to I2 so for red and
white winter extras; 81 so to s7i for good to
choice spring extras, and Mt S. to IS for spring
superfne.
Wheat was tolersbly active, but owing to the
advance in freights, prices receded l to &c per
bushel on both spring and winter grades. No.
red sold at 81 6S to 7o No. red at 81 324 to
80; No. spring at 81 SOL to 32t, and No. 2
spring at 81 Is TO 20. At the close the market
ruled firm for No. spring ct 81 80 to 32}.
Corn was in good request for shipment, but the
heavy receipts and further advance of lie in
freights depressed the market, and we note de-
cline of &c p bushel. The range of prices paid
was from 81 to CSC for No. 1; So to COO for No. 2,
and 81 to 55c for rejected. At the close the mar
ket ruled steady at 624c for No. L. and at 5sac for
No 2 Canal corn was quiet at 81 to 62ac for No.
l aloat.
Oats were in fair request and steady at about
