THE BANK STATEMENT.
The weekly statement of tho associated banks is
quite unfavorable, owing to an impairment Of the
surplus to the extent of about million and
q half OF dollars. The heavy movement Of currency
TO the West in connection with the Chicago wheat
|''corner," and the natural demand for money at
this In the rural districts rejected in
reduction of nine millions in the deposits. As
the loss in legal tenders is only about
q million and q half. and the contrac-
ton in loans about three and o quarter
millions, the difference must have been shipped In
national bank notes. decrease in specie OF two
millions is relic Of the futile ''bull" speculation in
gold when the cliques holding the coin or the
market. The gold which they have since returned
to the banks makes little no show in the present
weeks averages, but will appear in all Its volume
next week, doubtless. Hence the specie average Is
rising average, and the banks are really stronger
than the analysis Of their statement makes them
out to be, especially as the movement Of currency
has greatly abated with the fall in the price OF
wheat It was the greater consideration paid to
these latter facts rather than to the absolute
statement itself that explains the frmness
of tho stock market after 80 bad an ex-
hibit. Indeed, with the fall in the price
of wheat and with the great accumulation
OF grain in Chicago, 1t would not be surprising II
the further movement Of money, at least in an
active degree. should be deferred until much later
In the season, until the farmers have got accus-
toned to the lower prices prevalent since the
failure Of the wheat "corner." The statement

not admire the amazing structure of its

how this piece of mechanism acts" Of

Mr.. SchurZ's Explanation.
From the Chicago Inter-Ocean.

Senator Schurz, in his attempt to fas-
ten upon the President the charge of at
tempted bribery of himse If to support
the San Domingo treaty, stands con-
victed of falsehood, which can be shown
to the satisfaction of every candid mind.
Mr.. Schurz says: If one of us was in
the market it was not l." Let us see
whether Mr.. Schurz was not in the
market. In his speech at st. Louis he
said:
ing, two gentlmen in intimate relations with
the White House came to me, each one separ-
ately, soliciting my support of the project.
They assured me if I would give that
support or abstain from opposition, all the
patronage desired would be at my disposal,
making me- In that respect, one OF the most
influential men In the land. One of these
gentlemen subsequently admitted to me, In
writing. that the offer was made to me with
the consent of the President himself"
Mr.. Schurz says that shortly after,
having suffered" many provocations," he
sought from one of the gentlemen
alluded to written confirmation of the
Presidents alleged attempt to bribe HIM,
and received the following:
"My impression at this time is, that the
President desired your support for his San
Domingo scheme. and wished to be on suck
terms with you that your support could be OBJ

The annual report on murders, sui
cides, and deaths in the Madras Presi-
dency gives some curious facts, and in
dicates the immense proportion OF vol
lent deaths in British India. There
were during the year, in this single
Presidency, 268 murders, 100 homicides,
1907 suicides, and S,456 accidental
deaths. OF the latter class, $1,000 were
by drowning, 247 by wild beasts Tin most
cases tigers), 585 by snake bite, etc.
This list affords some ioea of the nature
of the perils to which human life in In

A PECULIAR accident happened in

his remaining away too long seemed
strange, and another person went to
look for him. This man did not return
either, and two others went down. All
four were killed by gases created by the
fermentation of the green willow
switches. The air was purified by proper
means, and the men carried out, but all
attempts to restore them to life were
without avail.
