THE PRICE OF MONEY IN TIE NEW
YORK MARKET.


| New York sun.
While the supply of money seeking
temporary investment at this centre is
very large; while the aggregate deposits
of our city banks, according to the state
ments issued from the Clearing house
of Saturday last, footed up $232, 129, 700,
being an increase of 1924, 226. 400 in the
short space of two weeks while money
in Wall street is extremely easy, and bor-
rowers on call can supply all their re-
quirements at three and three and a half
per cent. on acceptable stock exchange
oollaterals, and in large blocks at two
and two and half per cent. on govern
ment bonds, practically for all legitimate
business pursuits money is worth full
seven per cent. on long time. Every
thing else has declined in value; but
money on bond and mortage, secured on
choice city property, with a fair margin
based on present market values, is as
dear as ever it was in the widest period
of speculation and excitement.
The money which is loaned on call in
Wall street on marketable securities can
not be used in industrial, manufacturing,
agricultural, commercial, or building en-
terprises, for the simple reason that the
borrower is liable at any moment to be
called upon to refund it. Banks of dis
count and deposit are not in the habit of
discounting paper which has more than
ninety days or four months to run.
Even these temporary loans are precarious
and can not be depended on for any GER
tain length of time. Notes may be re-
newed once or twice, but no prudent
man would base any solid enterprise on
permanent loans to be attained from this
quarter. Money for the purpose of
building, which has always been one of
the main industries of this city, must be
had for Il period of from one to five years,
and with few exceptions, it can only be
raised on bond and mortgage.
PICTURES AND FRAMEs.-At recent
sale ofpictures in Baltimore thirty seven
works sold for 81 900, while the thirty
seven frames brought $50. The Balti-
more American says: "There was GER
tainly great deaf more profit in selling
frames than there was in the sale of pic
lures. In one case purchaser paid only
81 for picture, while he had to pay
$50 for the frame. There are many per
sons who object to thus being compelled
to take frames at market prices, while
they are allowed to bid whatever they
choose for the pictures"

eight days to fifty thousand visitors, the
total receipts for that time being 81, 247.
In Boston it was almost as popular. In
Buffalo fifteen thousand people visited it
in one day. 1t is probably the best
known painting in the country. 1t was
enormous in size, being twenty feet high
and forty five feet in length. 1t is the
work of Edeuard Dubufe, son of Claude M.
Dubufe. The artist was the pupil of his
father and of Paul DeIaroche He re-
ceived a commission for his work from a
French gentleman in Paris. 1t was com
pleted in 1867. In 1872, Mr.. Derby, who
is well known collector of paintings.
purchased this one for about $50, 600.
He estimates its commercial value at
from 100000 to $15O,O0O. 1t was in
sured in this city for $25, 200.
Mr.. Derby still has small copy, and
the artist is living, but it is not probable
that its reproduction will ever be at
tempted. The inspiration that guided
his brush cannot be recalled at will.

THE ExTRATIGANCE OF THE DE-
THRONED SULTAN.
Abdul Axis had not been on the throne
many years before he yielded to the per-
nicious influence of the enemies of re-
form, the old Turkish party, and fell in
to the luxurious habits of his predeces-
sors. He soon had harem peopled by
state immense sums. He dabbled in ag-
riculture, with the sole result of adding
heavy burdens to the already overbur-
dened treasury. He also went into the
menagerie business, and expended enor-
nous 'snms in collecting wild beasts and
birds. Men-of-war were sent to all parts
of the world to increase his collection,
and the governor of every province en-
deavored to afford him agreeable surprise
by costly Decentralization horses, car
pets, fruits, etc. So, too, wealthy Mo-
hammedans, as soon as they purchased a
handsome slave, sent her to the sultan,
who never refused her. Pictures and
vases from China and Japan accompa-
MED these gifts, the sultan having taken
a passion for these, and having spent last
year 100000 on pictures. Even that
trip to western Europe which resulted in
his inaugurating numerous administra-
tive reforms resulted in the squandering
eff an enormous sum, while the hunting
excursions and other amusements of his
court cost fabulous sums. The palace
expenditure has been $40, 900, 900 year
ever since his accession. His SER
wants numbered fifty-fve hundred-the
kitchen employing five hundred, the
stables four hundred, the menagerie one
hundred, while there were four hundred
caikdjis, four hundred musicians, three
door-keepers of the twenty-one palaces
and Mosques, and one hundred porters.
The harem had one thousand two hun
dred inmates. The sultan had twenty
five aides-de-camp, seven chambermaids,
six secretaries, and at least one hundred
and fifty employees with various func-
tions. There were fifty medical men,
one hundred and fifty black eunuchs and
one hundred harem messengers. Many
of these servants were married. and fed
their families with the broken meat,
while they had under-servants, 80 that
seven thousand persons were daily fed in
the palace at an average cost of five
francs each day, or 81, 100000 a year.
The horeses, six hundred in number,
were mostly presented by the khedive,
who also annually sent costly jewels,
pictures and birds. The stables cost at
least 500, 900, and the harem $500, 900;
while the pensions to the members of the
imperial family amounted to 50, los, 900,
and repairs to the palaces and Mosques
$400, 900, not to speak of the .ex-sultan's
passion for building, which has swallowed
up at least $2,8OO,OOO. His nominal
civil list being only $6,7OO.00O, the re-
mainder of the $1O,OOO,O0O necessarily
figured in the annual budget under other
and deceptive heads. This prodigality
added to the expense of recognizing the
army and navy, ruined the finances of
the country, and was the fruitful cause
of disturbances at home and grave apPre-
tensions abroad.
