SATURDAY EVENING, Nov. ..
The change in the tone Of the local money
rnarEe: since this day last week is slight, what
there has been is in favor of easier condi-
tion though the banks disagree in their reports
On this point, and some Of them say they are
Just as short Of loanable funds as they were
8 week ago. The effect Of the hindrance
to trade from the horse-disease is percephble
in the business Of the banks. Instances are
cited by bankers in which their customers have
had to borrow, and others in which they have
been unable to meet maturing obligations, be-
cause they could not deliver goods. The condi-
tion Of the open market does not quite tally with
the report Of the banks. We find there is less
commercial paper offering in the street than
week or ten days ago, and rates Of interest are
lower than then, ~ per cent per month being
the ruling rate now, against per cent then.
The receipts Of currency from the country
have diminished some during the week, and, on
the other land, some considerable amounts are
being sent out.
Now York exchange continues scarce, and
1ntes are firm at 50@75c per 81, 900 premium for

ket, the demand being confined to feeders and
local butchers. We quote closing prices at

DEATH OF JAMES ARMoUR.-On Sunday
afternoon last despatch was received by his
relatives in this city, announcing the sudden
death in La Sale, about noon on Sunday, Of
James Armour, Esq, warehouse man and grain
dealer, OF that city. james Armour was the
youngest OF four brothers, all of whom had re.
sided and done business in Ottawa, La Sale and
Seneca from about 1897 down. George Arm.
our after having been in business in Ottawa
ten or fifteen years, removed TO Chicago, where,
Tor some years, he has been q member of the
heavy warehouse firm Of Munger & Armour.
John Armour, who built the Armour ware
house in this city and another In Seneca, died
at Ottawa four years ago. James, who has just
died, owned large warehouse ON the basin at
La Sale. and, since the death Of John Armour,
has, We believe, had charge OF the warehouse at
Seneca. Archibald Armonr, another of the four
brothors, is still doing bushes in this city.
James, like his brothers, was q stirring, shrewd
and successful business man, and being genial,
social aud convivial in his habits, always had q
host OF warm personal friends, by whom his
loss will be deeply felt and regretted. His
death Is understood to have been sudden and
unexpected. the immediate cause being a con.
gestive chill. He leaves wife and several
grown UP daughters.
