General Terrence Donates the CITY of Chi

CHIAGGo, ILL.,, Sept lS,-General Joseph l..
Terrence of this city offered to donate twenty
acres of land upon which to erect four hos
pitals-one e0ch for cholera, smallpox, diph-
iberia and scarlet fever. The proposition
was made TO Mayor Washburne and
Dr. Reilly OF the State Board of Health and
was at once accepted, and it was decided
to raise $4,000 to erect the necessary build
ings. 1t is General Torrence's idea TO have
the sanitary station used the year round as :.
clearing house for all the immigrants coming
to Chicago The land he VIII donate hes in
an isolated spot about one mile from one OF
the belt lines, just south OF the city limits.
A railroad switch will connect tho sanitary
station with the belt line. Therefore, in
stead Of tho city health inspectors running
out few miles TO inspect Incoming immi-
grant trains, all trains carrying immigrants
can be run into the sanitary station and IA
corps OF physicians there will perform the
inspection. No immigrants will come into
the city, but they WIN be distributed to their
trains for the west from the sanitary station

LONDON, Sept ls.- Discount was un-
changed during the past week. A slight
rise would probably have occurred il the
price had not been little stiffcned by the
weakness OF German exchange, threatening
withdrawal OF gold to Germiny. The
plethoric condition Of the money market is
amply shown by the fact that the run on tho
BirKbeck bank, amounting to 81 100000, and
the uncomfortable feeling arising from
the failures of building societies.
have not affected the rate to tho
eXtont of Is Sd. The market, however,
appears to oe thoroughly alarmed in
regard to other similar institutions, and many
building societies are having II bad time, de-
posits being steadily withdrawn. Inactivity
continues on the Stock exchange. Tue settle

the cholera and want of business are largely
responsible. Good Investment securities are
stlll most favored, and British and colonial

two or three brokers connected with the
