MONEY IND BESINESS.

The banks report that their aggregate re-
serves are 81 .133, ,075 below the legal require
ments. The average of Treasury statements
for the six days corresponding to the bank re-
port was $S7,336, SOL, against $S4, sol, ,795
for the previous week, increase of -, 535, ,009
which accounts for only part of the decrease
of 81, ,529, 800 in bank reserves. Exports of
specie and shipments to the interior explain
the rest 1t is mere folly, in this instance to
raise the usual plea that the statement may
have been "rigged by Spectators" because
known payments to the Treasury and known
movements of gold make it impossible that
the decline in reserves was less than the
amount reported, and prove, moreover, that
the condition of the banks was much less fa-
vorable than the statement indicated. Thus,
the average of the Treasury balances, given
above, was smaller by $l,171,1 179 than the
balances at the end of the week. The exports
of gold, 100000 on the 22d, counting four
days. and %l,02j,000 on the 25th, counting
one day, affected the bank averages only
$5Oi,OOO, or $l,O21, 900 less than the sum
actually taken out. Hence, the banks certainly
hold 81, 1872, 900 less reserve than the state
ment indicated, without making any allowance
for shipments late in the week to Chicago and
st. Louis, where exchange is still against New
York
Nevertheless the money market was fairly
easy toward the end of the week. 1t is be-
lieyed that foreign bankers are lending more
freely than usual Some have sold securities
largely On account of customers abroad, and
apparently believe that an increase of exports
will soon afford more advantageous means of
settlement than by shipments of specie. If,
moreover. they have some further orders to

THE PELICAN IN POLITICS.

For the second time the pelican is seen IN
politics. He made his first appearance IN pun
lie life nearly century ago. His debut was
in France his remittance has taken place ia
the United States.
When the most unfortunate of the French
Kings was fast climbing to the heights OF his
unpopularity the National Guard OF versailles
caused medal to be struck off on which was
represented pelican feeding Its young
with its blood. The getters-up or the
medal designed better than they knew.
How well they designed appeared on
a ghastly morning in the winter or
1893, when the wretched pelican, who
answered to the name of Louis, at the re-
morselcss demand of "its young" placed Its
head upon a block and suffered it to be taken
clean off in order that they might drink their
full of his blood. The young were apparently
delighted with the decapitatiOn OF their parent.
But the terrible piece of surgery was very
hard on the pelican.
Since then. until this year, the pelican has
not been heard of in politics. After 1913
whatever popularity he had achieved because
of his connection with the medal vani he'd.
The medal passed ont of favor into reproach,
and he presumably, shared its fate lie reap
pears in 1882 as he disappeared-on medal.
But it is not the same pelican. 1he
pelican upon the current medal-the frehch
one was gold. but all these are OF brass
is much deeper Of pouch, much longer ol Deak'
much kccner of appetite, than its predeces-
sor. And this latter one is representatives, 1t
is reported, and we speak only from report,
not having seen the medal-as feeding, not his
young, but his own vanity, with his blood.
The Society for the Promotion of Mutual Cha
grin that bestowed the medal upon itself this
year, as a slight testimonial of its own love
and venc1ation for itself, numbers 306
Blighted Beings. And to II man they point
with pride to the pelican. They rejoice to have
the language of figure present them to the
world as 3OG pelicans, self-contained, self-suf-
iicient pelicans, declining to go outside OF
their own blood for the sustenance of
their own bile. The pelican is their pa
tron bird, their national bird, in COM
parison with which the Eagle stands
no chance of honorable recognition. We
feel sorry for the pelican. Remembering the
fate of his forerunncr upon the French medal,
he is night in being filed with the gloomiest
forebodings. Well may he inquire, If pelican
that tried to feed his young with his blood
came to grief how shall pelican that hopes
to feed his ever-craving vanity in the same way
escape destruction
Students of political ornthOlogy feel confident
that after these two mortifying experiences the
pelican will permanently withdraw from public
life which has brought him only shame and
confusion of face, and devote his future to
things which, if less Obtrusiyc, will be more
agreeable.
