BRAVE BANKERS
Helping the Compton d'Escompte
Ont of Hole.

PARIS, March fat the finauciers'
meeting this morning NJ. Rouvier ap-
pealed to the bankers to unite on both
moral and patriotic grounds. He ex-
pressed the hope that the 100000
francs of fresh capital necessary to
uphold the Compton d'Escompte
would be Immediately subscribed. The
meeting was adjourned. At meeting
of the directors of the Bank of France
it was decided to make an additional
advance of 10000, 900 francs on condi-
ton that similar sum be subscribed
elsWhere, in order to avert judicial
liquidation of the Compton d. Escompte's
affairs. The Rotschilds subscribed
100000 francs and the Credit
Foncier 100000, and the SUBJ
scriptions of other houses bring the ag-
gregate up to 5000, 900 francs. The re-
manning 100000 francs are certain to
be subscribed.
Later-In response to NJ. Rouvier's
appeal to the syndicate, the chamber of
stockholders has agreed to advance
5000, 600 to the Compton d'Escompte.
The necessary amount-40,0 O0, 900 francs

financially and politically. The
Economist says: English firms
will not attempt to resuscitate
the French copper syndicate, but will
endeavor to effect harmonious work
ing of the Spanish and American mines,
and induce them to abandon contracts
antees of the Compton d'Escompte, the
enforcement of which would result
in the wrecking of both and disaster
to the copper industry, and to enter
into fresh mutual relations to reg
uIate the output and sale, and
avoid a revival of the competition of
1877. The price will not be forced up.
while the copper will not be produced
at loss. Rather low price will be
fixed. The French syndicate have
agreed with the promoters of the
scheme to sell their stock in
manner that will avoid collapse"
The Economist is not sanguine of the
success of the scheme. 1t urges that
the immediate liquidation of the copper
syndicate would be disastrous at
first. but trade, stimulated by
low prices, would rapidly consume
the surplus instead of its being con-

To Avert National Disaster.

LONDON, March 17.-Clifford Lloyd
writes to the Times advocating the
abolition of the Office of lord lieutenant
of Ireland and the Dublin bureaucracy,
the granting to Ireland of large meas
ure of county government, retaining
the police as an imperial organization,
and the readjustment of taxation. If
both parties in England were to agree
to this, Mr.. Lloyd thinks, there need be
no misgivings as to the result. Both par
ties. he argues, should act together, and
thus avert national disaster.

night William Shannon. a lumber mark
er, thiIty-five years old, entered the sa-
loon of Charles Logue, on Pearl street,

across the bar, saying: ''Take that
to remember ME by. The next time
you see me I'll be on trial for
my neck. l cut my woman's neck from
ear to ear with it." Investigation

said he had. Blanche Gray, with whom
Shannon had been living for four years

Again to the Rescue.


For the LIGHT
Suppose we take another view of
the advantages to result of a cotton
and wooden factory for San Antonio.
AS | said in my last, that of giving
employment to hundreds of our people,
the result of that employment would
from every hand employed to the
trade of the city.
San Antonio now receives about ten
thousand bales of cotton, and say six
thousand sacks of wool. The cotton
receipts would be largely enhanced
and add SO much more to the volume
of trade and enable purchasers for
eastern and foreign manufacturers to
fill their orders here instead of using
the smaller towns about us as they
are doing.
If you would make San Antonio a
trade centre you must make an in
ducement by your faith and works. that
you will do it, and you will do 1t in
no other way than by investing your
own capital, which VIII invite the
capital that you are quietly waiting
to come to you, which will not come
by invitations on paper. You have
been testing that for several yerrs,
but the result is a failure. You can
improve West End and Key
Stone Park, as health resorts, for all
who are able to buy lots and build,
thereby conceding that the city is not
as healthy as it ought to be and per-
haps cannot be, except by competent
sewerage, hence not a healthy resort.
A fair has its influence, people will
come and 60 to fair, and they will
come and go and leave a good deal OF
money for the benefit of trade, for ho-
tells, saloons, opera, circus, shows of
various kinds which follow and at
tend all fairs. They come and 60, as
much money perhaps is taken away
as is left.
Permanent industries as suggested
in the beginning of this article, will
add permanent wealth, and in time
will respond to the various calls made
upon citizens, for various objects from
time 10 time, without that uphill bus
mess in raising money to secure the
fair.
The writer would like to hear what
somebody else has to say on the mat
ter suggested in this and previous ar
ticles in the LIGHT.
Very Respt.,
