THE MISSING BANKER.

Ferd. 8. Wins1ow Prefers tile Climate of Italy
to a Winter in ChicnGo.
While the parties in charge are working quietly
and steadily to clear away the wreck and protect
the depositors, the late President OF the Scandi-
nayian Bank is finding the climate Of Italy en-
chanting, with the added enchantment that dis
tance lends to such casos. The utmost sympa-
thy is felt for the family Of Winslow, upon whom
the devastating blow falls with terrible effect.
Their delightful home is surrendered, Mrs.
Winslow refusing to retain any Of the property.
4 cable despatch WAS On Friday received from
Mr. Winslow, at Naples, addressed to q
gentleman in this city, advising the fam
ily that his health would not allow him to
think OF returning this winter, and urging Mrs
Winelow and the children to join him IN Italy.
suggestion was added as to a shipment Of fine
pictures, amounting in value to 5000, which
it WAS evidently the sender's wish. under the
new aspect OF things, to hold back from addition
to the existing art features OF Chicago. Every
thing seems to confirm the view that WinHloW,
in leaving Chicago, had no intention Of abscond-
ing, but, with characteristic hopefulness, e1-
pected to tide over his difficulties and land even
tually on his feet But the crash came, and he
must now strike out new programme.
Army men are exchanging notes, now that
Winslow has come to grief, on some Of bis Quar-
termaster performances on tbs Mississippi dur
ing the war, where, by virtue Of bis position, he
held the key to the operations OF cotton dealers,
and used it with no other particular virtue ex-
cept cool extortion. In one case he seized a
cargo Of cotton at river port, which had CON-
Piled with all the rules of the service, and only
felnquiahed it on payment Of $2D, 900. This
same lot he caused again to be seized at another
orders, when BE- bled tie owners again, md
finally finished the performance by confscating
the cotton at st. Louis, his hand appearing
throughout. In this transaction over $4,000
WAS scooped out of well-known Chicago parties.
In short, Winslow has developed talents Of no
common order, such as they are, and belongs,
evidently, to class Of men which no community
can expect to retain beyond moderate period
(unless they carefully lock him up). He is one
who frequently needs Ct fresh f1olds and pastures

, "HoNoR TO WHOM HONOR IS DUE"

To the Editor Of Tie Chicago Tribune:
Sn: Referring to the article in your last
Sundays issue, entitled '' Chicago Restored ~
would respectfully ask you to make correction
in the remarks made concerning the grocery
trade. You say, in referring to the same, But
one firm, ]. n. Doane d Co., put up their OWL
building" Now, sir, think you will find that
A1esars. Kussel Bros, J. II. Dunham d. Co., c
H. Beckwith d Co., ". II. Hoyt l. Co., otc., put
up their OWL buildings; and SO say, "Honor
to whom honor is due.''
In giving credit to the dry goods, grocery, and
other trades, you might give little praise to the
oil-trade. I would particularly mention the firm
Of Chase, Hanford Co., corner Of South Wa
ter street and Wabash avenue. These gentle
men have built, and occupy, very handsome
building. Their perscvering enterprise and
plucky determination deserve all praise.
trust you will excuse my encroaching On
your good nature, but think it due to the par
ties named, who have added to the greatness Of
Chicago BY rebuilding, and shown the pluck
they have, to give each and all their need OF
praise. Respectfully yours P. Il. II.

MONEY AND CONNIE ERCE::
MONETARY.

SATURDAY EVENING, Dec. IA.
The progress toward an easier condition which
HaB noted at this time last week, continued up
to about the middle OF the wesk. But as aoon
as it came to be- generally understood that de4
p6sits in the banks were increasing; the demand
for bank accommodation, which had been held IN
abeyance for a week or two, began to increasej
SO that at the close OF this week the dispropor-
tion between the applications at bank, and the
ability Of the banks to loan, is about as great as
it WAS two weeks ago. The prospect for the
next few Weeks, however, is more favorable, as
the marketing Of hogs and cattle, and the large
shipments from here Eastward, are
lquidating indebtedness rapidly. In the open
market We eee Indications Of an easier condi-
ton in the fact that there is less commercial pa
per offered. There are some instances OF the
paper of first-c1assmercautileh houses in Chicago
being offered here at IL per cent per month by
New York merchants to whom the paper was
given for goods but this shows the necessities
OF New York merchants rather than OF the
makers of the paper. The middle Of December
has generally been regarded as about the time
when the usual winter stringency Of
money eliminates. It may therefore be-
assumed that the worst Of the stringency
for this winter is over. After the lat Of January
the interest and dividend disbursements in East
ern cities will make money easier and also relieve
this market.

day at par and at 25c per 1000 premium.

CATTLE Throughout the past week the
cattle trade has been in most unsatisfactory

anything like activity in the demand from any
source, so that, while the arrivals, comparative
", have been moderate, they largely exceeded
the wants Of buyers, and STEADY, accumulation
OF stock was Witnessed In prices We have to
note very material falling off. The Eastern
markets, without exception, have ruled lower,
market has sympathized to the extent Of 10
on all grades Of shipping cattle, while in
some instances sellers claimed to have disposed
of their stock at reduction Of 5S@%c. In the
poorer sorts the depreciation WAS not so marked,
the decline suffered last week having operated to
check the receipts Of such. II the market for
any one class Of stock can be said to have been
duller than another, it Was SO for medium to fair

Always Get the Best.

The aim of every man and woman
should be to get the very best of every
thing. But the question will often arise,
(Which is the best?" and that which is
best for one person or locality may not
be the best for another. Probably in no
occupation does this question of buying
the best so often come up for considera-
ton as with the farmer If it is moving
machine that he wishes to purchase, the
scores of different patterns offered only
confuse instead of aiding him to decide
upon one, and if he asks for information
of his neighbors the chances are that each
will recommend a different machine, for
there are many tirstrate ones in the
market, and even the best Judges are not
always competent to tell wherein certain
favorite is superior to another. There is,
however, a great difference in moving
machines. Some require more power to
run them than others, while some are
more durable, better made, and not so
liable to get out of order, and all of these
points should be and must be understood
by the purchaser who desires to obtain
the very best.
Then there are other things to be taken
into account in buying an implement,
such as the land upon which it is TO be
used, whether stony, light or heavy, Level
or billy for what is best for one would

to these widely different conditions and
circumstances that we must attribute the
widely different opinions expressed in re

who is unacquainted with any of them
needs TO take all this into consideration
when he undertakes to get the best for
himself The most expensive implement
may not be the best for you, but it might
be for your neighbor.
The same principle holds good in all
branches of agriculture and farm econ
omv. The stock best adapted to one
locality may not be equally valuable in
another, for experience has taught IT'S that
not only climate, but the formation of the
country has more or less influence upon

Treatment of DiStemper.

The treatment of a common case of
distemper is very simple, and requires in
ternal medicines only, when the fever is
high, the mucous membrane much red
dened and the respiration difficult. In
all other cases, but especially as soon as
the cough has become loose and easy,
the discharge from the nostrils thick, and
the assesses have been opened, a merely
hygienic and dietetical treatment is quite
sufficient. Respecting these, we have to
avoid any exposure of the patient to wet
and cold, have to keep, as much as pos
sible, a uniform temperature in the stable,
and to give easily digestible food, such
as bran mashes, malt, boiled oats, carrots,
and if it can be had, young grass and
other green prOvender.
If there is considerable swelling beneath
the jaw, or in the throat, the horse should
not be allowed to eat from the ground;
consequently he should not be kept in the
pasture, for that most likely viii increase
the swelling. Food and water-the latter
in cold season little warmed-must be
put into the manager, within easy reach of
the animal. The application CT good
fly blister or the swelling beneath the
jaw, that is, beneath the two branches of
the lower jaw bone, hastens considerably
the ripening of the assesses, which
should be lanccd at their lowest point,
and, if possible, near the center, rs soon
as the presence of matter can be detected.
Steam baths, and all that kind of non
sense, incommode the patient, and do a
great deal more harm than they can do
good.
If internal medicines are required, a
dose of two scruples tartar emetic, two
drachms sal ammoniac, with little
licorice root powder and marshmallow
root powder, mixed with a little water
and made into pills, may be given to a
full-grown horse three times IA day till
the respiration has become less difficult,
the cough easier, and the discharge from
the nostrils thick.-farmerS' Hone Jour

Mango IN Hogs.

ONE of our subscribers in Virginia, S.
b. H., writes us to know whether wheat
straw will produce mango in hogs, or
whether any other straw will?" We reply
that mango is produced in hogs by the
presence of a species of acari, which bur
row under the skin in certain parts of the
body, and finally, by rubbing and scratch
ing, produce scab or running sores. Such
condition is fatal, of course, to thrift,
and assumes a very contagious form
or any other kind of straw, but result
filthiness and bad accommodations, heat
of contact by having too many hogs to-
gether, etc. The cure is cleanliness.
Apartments should be changed at once for
few weeks, and thoroughly whitewash-
ed. The animal Selecting, of course,
moderate weather. should be first
thoroughly scrubbed with warm water
and soap, and a solution of carbolic acid
applied to the parts affected, especially
behind the ears, under the thighs, and in
side the fore legs. Wheat straw, if used
for litter, should be changed frequently.
Some farmers have an idea that oat straw
litter produces mango; but the only reason
why it should be more favorable to mango
than wheat straw is that it is softer, and
of course packs more closely, and becomes
solid, requiring more frequent changing.
Pigs should occasionally have charcoal.
This corrects acidity, which hog food,
mixed up as it is with little of every
thing, often produces. Mango usually
attacks unthrifty animals.-Earnaefs'
