THE WALL STREET OF LONDON.
LOMBARD STREET:
A Description of the Money Market.
By WALTER BAGEHoT,
Author of "The English Constitution"
ONE Vol. 12Mo, CLOTH, s1.75.

MIR. Bagehot's wonderful ability to make
complex subjects easily understood is admi-
rably illustrated in this remarkable volume.
While the work will enable the reader to gain
a clear idea OF the Wall street of London, it
also gives him an insight into the English
banking system, a thorough comprehension
of which should be possessed by every intel
ligent citizen of the United States, in order
to enable him to understand our own tinan-
cial strength and weakness.
[From the New York Daily I INES
Mr.. Bagehot's book is of immediate in
terest and value to our own country, and
we should be glad to believe that it is likely
to be widely read here"

The Roman Catholic church has en-
tered upon crusade against Freema-
masons. So say the newspapers. We
think not. There are great many Ro-
man Catholics in the mystic brother
hood, and crusade would make thou
sands more. The church that has its
dozens of oath bound secret societies is
not in condition, in this age of free
thought and free action, to tell any man
or number of men that they shall not be
members of this or that order. Let the
church attend to its own funeral. 1t
has enough to do there. A crusade
against the Masons, or the Odd Fellows,
or Knights Of Pythias, CT Sons of TEN
perance, because they choose to hold
meetings from which clerical spies are
excluded, would be absurd fully. There
are twenty persons interested one way
or another in secret societies where
there is one Romanist to oppose them.

meeting a discussion took place between
Reid and Sinclair, OF an intensely bitter
and personal character. Among the
charges made by Reid was one TO the
effect that Sinclair had strongly urged
Greeleys capd'dature when everybody
else in interest opposed it. Reid offered
to pay in cash 1920, 600 for the 80 shares
which Sinclair owns or controls. claim
ing at the same time that by the rules
governing the Tribune association, Sin
clair was bound to sell to stockholders
in preference to outsiders. Sinclair re-
marked that the rule in question could
not be enforced in law. Reid replied
that perhaps that was so. but reminded
Sinclair that he had abided by the ar
rangement for some 30 years. Sinclair
esponded that, situated as he was a,
present, and in View Of pledges Re hal
made, he couldn't abide by it now. and
there the discussion ended. To-day

re Used the offer. Reid then said he
was authorized to offer Sinclair for sale
the shares owned by Messrs. Rocker.
Hay, Ripley, F fitzpatrick, Cleveland, and
others, and Sinclair Immediately sat
down and drew checks in favor of those
gentlemen for the amount of stock held
by each. Later in the day Reid called

the wish of the new management that
they should continue their connection

urged upon them TO spare no exertion
