Mayors Summons in Vain.
The meeting of business men called by
Mayor McCallin and Mayor Pearson to take
sction toward inviting the Grand Army of
the Republic to hold the next National En-
campment in Pittsburg, failed to material
ize Yesterday. 1t was to have been held in
Common Council chamber, and at the hour
fixed several Grand Army men were present
to give any information that might be re-
quired.
One business man put in an appearance;
but as he. did not feel inclined to bear all
the expense. he decided to adjourn. This is
probably the end of the idea of holding a
National Eneampment in Pittsburg.

DUN'S REPORT.

Heavy Diabursements Have Little Notice
able Eneet-Business Generally Improv-
ing.
NV YORk. Aug. SIR g. Dun & Co.'s
weekly review OF trade says: Last weeks
suggestions in regard to the monetary sit
uation have been entirely sustained by
the events Of the past week. Those who
hold large mOun Of Government bonds
were induced to sell freely at prices
formerly paid by the treasury. which
has thus been enabled to pay out
about 9 1900. 900 for bonds But
the heavy disbursements have scarcely
changed at all the market for commercial
paper here. Boston, or at Philadelphia,
though speculation has been rendered
more active and sharp advances in stock
and wheat have resulted. The Secretary's
belief that bonds to a large amount could
be obtained at the prices offered has been
justified, and he has lone what he
could under the law to prevent monetary
pressure. But the money discussed seems
likely to relieve speculative rather Ia
needs at least until other
besides thS ono in Government
bonds have been liquidated. Stocks have
advanced just $3.50 per share in a week.
and Loo. 900 have been sold already ut
the rising prices. As yet the money for
treasury. and its cash holdings are
q little larger than q week ago. but its de-
posits in bank $4,000 less. Business in
all parts Of the country continues to inn
prove with the timulus OF large crops.

STRANGE PEOPLE.
New York Sun.


 Anthropologists are finding here and there people that seem to repro- duce almost exactly the cave men and lake dwellers of prehistoric times, whose remains have caused SO much discussion. The tribes which are thought to have best preserved the phases of life that belonged to primi- tive man particularly interest all stu dents of mankind, and the opportuni- ties for observing them are constantly increasing.
 When Colonel Grant was descend ing the Nile from Victoria Nyanza, & native who had travelled far, told him that hundreds of miles southwest of the lake, in Katanga, the great copper country, he had seen caves so high that from 6 camel's back he could not have touched their roofs with 6 spear. One of them, he said, was 400 yards wide, and he penetrated it from sunrise till noon, emerging at last on the other side of the mountain. No credence was given this story until MT. Arnot, who returned from the Katanga coun- try while ago, said that he had seen these caves and the people who inhabit them. 1t is to be regretted that his work in other directions prevented him from thoroughly studying these remarkable Sombwe caves and their tenants, but he promises upon his re- turn next spring to make them the object of careful research.
 The mountain range where these caves are found is about 400 miles northwest of Lake Bangweolo. On the precipitous south face of the mountains Arnot saw, at a distance, holes here and there, dotted like rab- bit warrens over the face of the range. These are the entrances to the caves, and Arnot was astonished by their large number. One cave, he says, has two entrances, the distance between the openings being five miles. In some caves there are streams of run ming water. The walls have the ap- pearance of pumice stone, and lime stone strata was also found. In the caves and around their mouths live
