RANK CONDITIONS COMPARED.

Bv the operations of the New-York Sub-Treas.
ury in the week ended Friday night, the associated
hanks lost Sl63,514. The weekly bank state
ment published yesterday showed an average loss
IN cash of Se. sI5,3OO This must be considered
a reflection OH the exports of gold week ago,
which did not appear in the, preceding statement
The shipments in the last week counted by the sys-
TEN Of averages for little more than 81 ,23o,O0O,
but the receipts of currency from the interior
were unable to offset the combined losses. In
fact il may be doubted If the receipts were fully
IN 10 the expert estimates. The statement was
made on falling averages, and the actual condi-
tion OF the banks was again somewhat poorer
than the showing. The further expansion of
loans by S9,'3o,30o, after an increase of over
Sc 600 900 week ago, could hardly be explained
BY the business at the Stock Exchange The in
crease in deposits was slightly smaller than the
other changes demanded, but in its details the
Abatement is fairly consistent The result of all
the changes was Il loss in the surplus reserve of
Si4s9,S0O but the banks still hold in excess Of
legal requirements SlS,654.O0O. against S33,4il,-
A25 in the corresponding week year ago, ana
S20,242,655 in the preceding year.

An EMPTY TREASURY.
The Industrial Home school Appeals
to the ChnritabIy Inclined.

At the last session of Congress the ap-
propria ton for the Industrial Home School
was diminished ~ per cent on the assump-
ton the board of guardians could provide
for many of the children that have been
under the care of this school. The number
of the children inmates in the school have
been reduced, but IL has not been possible
to make IA proportional reduction in eX-
penses and the MANAGERS find that the de-
mands made upon their resources are great
er than they can bear. AS is generally
known by the citizens of this city who
are familiar with the excellent work done
by this institution, it is conducted by a
charitable ASSOCIATION Incorporated some
thirty years ago under the general act
for the purpose of caring for destitute chill
dren. 1t was at first supported by en-
tirely voluntary contributions, but as the
value OF its work appeared partial appro-
priations We're made from the District treas
ury. II was given the use of the old aims
house property on the Tenley tCwn road and
for the last six years Congress has appro-
priated sufficient sum annually to pro-
vide for 4 hundred children.
The results of the training and educate
given to the children at this home has made
them seif-reliant and capable. so that there
are always openings available for children
who are ready to go out and begin the ba +
tie OF life for themselves. The situation ar
present is that the payments of the money
appropriated are insufficient for the supDort
Of the number of children which the home
has been obliged to retain, and the board of
managers have decided TO appeal IN the
public and lay the case before it RELYING ON
the generosity with which all appeals in
behait OF the home have been received
Contributions may be sent to the trea surar

was his purpose to bring the people of
Great Britain and the United States to a
better knowledge of each other, to replace
suspicion by confidence and ignorant ami
mostly by friendly appreciation. He liked
to call himself a man of letters. Truly he
was master of English, and he made his
skill and knowledge the agency to interpret
the better feeling of business branches of
the race having common glories. In all
American homes a sense of grateful pride
Will be felt when they learn the name and
fame of their countryman, the poet,
scholar, statesman and patriot, has re-
ceived at the hands of Britons in this VEN
cradle temple of national religion, honor and
renown. Give my love to England in gen.
eral was the last message of Lowell to
Thomas Hughes. In these memorials may
we not read England's reply to Lowell and
the nation he faithfully represented?''
Mr.. Chamberlain moved the adoption of
vote of thanks to Mr. Bayard He said
that English1nen claim common interest,
common pride and almost common owner
ship in great Americans, and this was par
ticularly so in the case of Mr.. Lowell.
The vote of thanks was adopted unani-
mously, and Mr. Bayard made brief re-
ply of thanks.
After the ceremonies many persons lin
gered in the chapter house to admire the
memorial.

CROwDING THE POLICE COURT.
The Rooms and Approaches Thronged
With Loafers.

The cold weather drives many persons in
doors in order to keep out OF the cold and
the Police Court is the place that catches
more of them than any other government
institution. At each door there is an Off
Ger, who is supposed to discriminate in
favor of persons who have legitimate bust
ness in court and those who are not reg
ular visitors. But the regulars get there in
great shape and never fail to get the best
seats, where they can hear every word that
is said and enjoy the amusing incidents, as
well as hear the sad tales that are told 1t
often happens that persons summoned to
the court are compelled to stand about the
hallway, while loafers and hangers on oc-
cupy the seats. Recently citizens passing
the court have had reason to complain of the
crowd of men, women and children standing
along the pavement in front of and adjacent
to the court building, waiting to see the
procession of unfortunates march from the
building TO the prison van. These hangers
on are present almost every day and IL is
nothing unusual to see as many as a hun
drcd persons standing on the sidewalks
street and parking. In Judge Kimbars
court alone there were about $50 persons
this morning while there were only twenty
two prisoners locked up for trial in both
courts. Complaints have been made about
these gatherings many times. but recently
the crowd has been larger than usual.

DNNAMITERS At DUBLIN.
Evidence of Excitement at Police
Headquarters.

DUBLIN. Nov. 2s.-There is evidence at
Lower Castle Yard, the Dublin metropolitan
police headquarters, of much suppressed
excitement. In the hotels and other public
places the topic of the most interest is the
news bearing upon the work of the alleged
dynamiters Not since the explosion at
Dublin Castle eleven months ago, have
dynamite and dynamiters engrossed so large
a share of public and police attention.
The murder last night near a quay on the
river Liffey of Patrick Reid, who is suppos-
ed to have been connected with the dyna-
mite conspiracy, has added much to the
mystery of the case. but the police hope to
be able to shortly clear up the whole affair.
This morning they arrested John Mearns.
an unemployed groCer's assistant. On sus-
picion that he shot and killed Reid. Mearns
was seen in Reds company prior to the
tragedy. A man was arrested last night
Immediately after the shooting and the
police believe that one of the two was the
actual murderer and the ether his accom-
plice 1t is still thought that the three men
were concerned in the dynamite plot, and
fearing that Reid would turn informer the
other TWO put him of the way.

cruel appliances. and he proposed to punish
every one brought before him on such a
charge. But as the case against Dove was
