The Washington Government seems dead to
humanity. The calls from the suffeEing, bleeding
and dying republicans in Cuba have found no
sympathy in Washington and nos the blood Of
murdered American citizens by the sccre, demand
our attention and plead for vengeance. The old
aay has been trailed in the dust long hy the
Grant Cabinet that it is respected nowhere. II

vana yesterday. and have been arrested, both men
and woman, also murdered by the blood

1GTR BANK OF ENGLAND-BetWeen October 1
and November over ten millions OF dollars in
coin and bullion have been shipped from England
to the United States TO meet the movements of
- exchange" This drain, which come out of the
Bank OF England, has led that institution to
quickly advance the rate of discount until on
Friday last II reached nine per cent. Although
this is a very high figure, ii has been reached and
even exceeded on previous occasions. In 1921 and
1872 It was advanced 70 ten per cent, whilst in
ten per cent. on November g. This may be omi-
nous now, but it is an omen of good as well as OF
evil. The ten per cent rate Of November had in
the following February fallen 10 three per cent.
In the fall of 1868, and again IN 1864, eight per
cent. was reached, whilst in 1866 the rate was
nine per cent. The Bank of England Is gwen this
great power IN order to regulate the finances of
that country, by preventing a scarcity of money
through druughts that take the stock of precious
metals abroad.
