My old great.grandmother had a way
Of making her children finish their
work. II they began anything they
must complete it. II they undertook TO
build q cob house, they must not leave
it till it was done; and nothing OF the
work or play to which they set their
hands would she allow them to abandon
incomplete. l sometimes wish I.had
been trained this way. How much OF
life is wasted in unfinished work 2
Many man uses up his time in splen.
did beginnings. The labor devoted to
commence ten things and leave them
useless would finish five OF them and
make them profitable and useful. Finish
your work. Life Is brief; time is short.
Stop beginning forty things, and go back
and finish four. 3.

that nothing had been done looking 10
consolidation with the National League.
Tho representatives Of tho TWO clubs
mentioned reported that they had en-.
tered into an agreement satisfactory to
both sides, and that next year there
would be but one club In each OF those
cities. This announcement, while not
entirely unexpected, caused n good deal
Of Indignation, aud the discussion fol.
lowing was very stormy. Pending a
settlement OF the question the League
adjourned for dinner.

burgh clubs was arrived at al n secret
conference iaht night. The basis oil set.

NEW YoRH, Nov. 1l.-Rumors ol
trouble among banking institutions were
current all day, but no one pnld much
heed to them, thinking that they were
tho usual emanations OF bear minds.
After the close, however, 1t was learned
that three banks which were members
OF the New York Clearing House Asso.
citation had difficulty in settling the
claims OF the other banks against them.
There was balance against the Bank
OF North America OF Sl.40o0oO, which
it was unable to settle. The other banks
were tho North River and the Mech in.
les and Traders. How tho heavy bal.
ance was created against the Bank OF
North America wns a puzzle. During
the day the Mechanics aud Traders
Bank made its settlements with tho
clearing house all right, and tho other
two banks received assistance from the
other banks in the association md pulled
through all right.
At the Bauk OF North America it was
ptANSu tAA1 tIS ttuHbltt Nha uiEeCtly uNe
to the account OF Decker, Howell 4 Co.,
and that now that the account of that
firm WAS closed the bank was in
stronger position than ever. The most
important factor in the Developments
was the scarcity Of money. Right up to
the close 1t was in urgent demand and !
per cent and legal intereet was charged
on loans, equal to $50 per cent per
annum. This fact aud the troubles of
the banks caused special meeting
of the Clearing House Association
to be called, and alter long
session it was decided to ap.
point Committee ,oi Presidents with
authority to issue clca,ins house loan
certificates in order 10 enable banks to
settle balances between themselves.
Theae certificates will be based on bills
receivable, collateral securities, cash as-
Fets and the united credit OF the banks.
This action is intended to distribute the
reserves OF the banks more evenly be-
tween tho institutions. Where one
bank is unable to settle its difference in
case it will deliver securities and assets
10 the certificate committee, and il that
committee accepts the securities it will
authorizs the issue OF certificates on
them. The united action OF the banks
is expected TO restore complete conf
dence, s

read his annual address. At the conclu.
sion Of tho address tho Assembly nd.
journed till tomorrow. ~
In his report, after dwelling upon tho
growth Of the organization during these
twenty.one years and the good accom-.
plishcd, hesaid in part: ''For years the
most important OF series Of questions
that has agitated the people of all nations
Is that OF tariff and free tra,lc. \
we have not, as IN order, adopted a
tarin or anti-tatiT clause in our pream.
bic, and do not advise such thing
now. My recommendation Is that on
and ailer the frat day Of january, 1891,
it Ghall be permissible for local essen.
blies to discuss high tariff and free
trade. BY putting the question in this
shape, Which will bring. the greatest
good to the greatest number-high tariff
or free trade :? We do not commit tho Or
der TO either school, and yet allow our
members to take up for discussion that
vital question.
Upon tho recent New York Central
strike he exhaustively reviewed the af-
fair and said: II am opposed to strikes;
my views on that subject are we'll
known; but If men are to gain anything
they must be organized, they must be Q
prepared to strike, even though they
never do it. II we have strikes, then
VIC should prepare for them. My ex.
perience tells me this. The time to
strike, according to those who can cit
away away from the ve1ations OF the
workmen's everyday experience, ac-
cording to editors and Statesmen, is
neger.
During the Central strike We had an
opportunity to learn who our friends
were among the newspapers and found
that they were exceedingly few.
Since the Central strike ended there
were rumors of another one on the
Erie railway and the papers began to
show thst there was no necessity for n
strike on that road for the managers
and the workmen were working in har-
mony. There will always be harmony
between tho employer and employee
when tho former has it in his power to
dictate what the employee should eat,
drink, and wear.
He strongly advocated the passage OF
a law securing to both sexes equal rights
and the acceptance OF the invitation
from the Farmers Alliance to send dele
gates to their next contention. lie also
favored the coming cooperation Of the
knights Of Labor with the various rail-
road organizations in the work Of ted
Grafton. a#
A public reception was rendered the
delegates this afternoon at which 5000
people were present. ~
