Secretary Window Sees no Indication Of .
Tight Money Market or Corner I'm Bonds.
NEW YORK, Oct. 21.-The Washington

an interview with Secretary Window in

asked whether he feared stringency, or
knew anything of a corner in the bond
market, arranged to force the Treasury TO
raise the price of bonds.

money market" replied the Secretary. "As
far as can learn there is no abnormal de-
mand for money; nothing more than what

TALKING AT LONG RANGE.
A 350-Mile Telephone Circuit, on Which q
Singular Phenomenon Has Been Found.

A 350-Mile Telephone Circuit, on which
Singular Phenomenon Has Been Found.
LONDON, Oct. 2l.-What is undoubtedly
the longest telephone circuit on the conti-
nent was opened to the public yesterday.
The lime is from Vienna, in Austria, to
Leipsic. and every word could be perfectly
understood and the voice recognized with
out difficulty. The distance between the
two cities by rail is something less than
800 miles, but the telephone wires, instead
of being carried along the routes of the rail-
ways. where the noise of the passing trains
was found to interfere materially with the
working of the long g-distance instrumcn ts,
are strung along the highways, where the
results are found to be much better. and
the actual distance or these routes is nearly
$50 miles.
strange fact has been noticed in con-
nection with this route. While the speaker
at Vienna is heard with remarkable clear
ness and accuracy. at Leipsic and at all
points along the route. as at Prague and
Dresden. a speaker at either of these points
is heard with much more difficulty at
Vienna. The electricians of the company
are, as yet. una BILE to furnish satisfactory
explanation of this phenomenon. Why
sounds travelling from east to west should
be clear and distinct, while those travelling
in the other direction are more or less
blurred, remains a puzzle.

with circulating large amounts of the new
and dangerous forged twenty-fve-rouble
bills of the Bank of Russia. Two pack
ages. purporting to be bales of cotton
cloth. which arrived from New York last
week, were consigned to one of these men.
and on examination by the customs of

To avert suspicion from themselves they
circulated none of the stuff in Odessa, but

TERRIBLE SUFFERING AT SEA.

cred Steamer EarnmoOr-List of the Lost.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 21.-The seven sur
vivOrs of the steamer Earnmoor which
fOundered at sea when 800 miles of Turks
island, arrived in this city to-day. They
tell story of terrible suffering. The eEarn-
moor struck terrific gale on Sept. 4, which
increased in force. and at 11:30 on the fol-
lowing day the vessel gave o lurch and
foundered. AS the steamer sank the port
life-boat fioated off from the ship. The
second officer, second and third engineers,
four sailors, three firemen and the cook
clung to the boat and scrambled in. An
effort was made to save the rest of the
crew. and draw was made Of the painter,
but the boat was blown away and the oars
wrested from the hands of the men so that
no more could be saved. The cries of the
drowning men as they were dashed about
by the mountainous waves could be heard
by the men in the boat. The boat drifted
into the gulf stream and the air was warm,
but this increased the intensity of their
thirst.

day became awful" said Carl Crane, one Of
