FISH THAT RING BELLS.
How Circus Man Easily Taught
Brook Trout to Ask for Food.

How a Circus Man Easily Taught
Brook Trout to Ask for Food.
Fish have many times been taught to
perform tricks, and it would appear as
if they had much more intelligence
than is attributed to them. j. A. Bailey,
of circus fame, told New York Herald
man that he once had two brook trout
in a small aquarium in his private
residence that would Jump out of the
water and take flies held between the
fOretinger and thumb, and would also
ring little bell when they required
food. They would also leap over little
bars of wood placed about two inches
above the surface of the water. 1t was
a very simple matter to teach the hSn
these tricks.
AT firSta a little tower containing a
tiny, sweel-toned silver bell was fast
eued to the iron work of the aquarium.
with piece of string attached to the
tongue of the bell, extending into the
water where the trout were. On the
loose end Of the string an insect or
other tempting morsel was placed.
which the fish would at once seize, and,
pulling the cord, the bell in the tower
would naturally tinkIe. After this had
been repeated several days the fish
we're lett without food for some little
time, until they made the discovery
that they could obtain it by pulling at
the string 10 which the delicacies had
been attached. This they never failed
to do afterward when they were hun
CRY, and, as that was nearly all the
time, the little bell was constantly
tInkling. as the fish were continually
pulling the cord, and it was quite a
pretty and novel sight.

MONEY EASIER .
New York Bankers Report the
Demand From the West
Much Less.
Subtreasury Begins the Payment
of Interest on Coupon Bonds
Due July 1.

New YORK, June %. Banks reported
an easier feeling this morning in the
West, and said that the demands for ac-
cOmmodation, re-discounts and cur
rency were much less. The attention
OF bankers today was mostly concen-
trated on the situation OH the
Pacific. At the subtreasury it was
said that S500.000 i'll currency
was exchanged today for transfer to San
Francisco. Besides gold thus trans
ferred shipments of currency were
made direct today to the city by eX-
press, which made the aggregate
amount of money forwarded today about
81. 600, 900, and more will he sent tomor-
row OH the SaIue way. 1t ls bellved
that the help sent to San Francisco from
this city has relieved the Stringency
there so that beyond the failure of the
Pacific bank no further trouble
is expected. The sub-treasury began
the payment of interest upon coupon
bonds due July l. The number of eou-
pons presented for payment today,
however. was not large. Hold
ers OF registered bonds will probably
get their checks tomorrow. They will
be paid as soon as presented. The total
amount Ol lHJtTcSl lO Dc pulu OuI uy>lllc
government in this city is about So
O00.0O0. The disbursement of this
sum is expected to aid very
largely in the relief of the money mar
ket as it will to some extent relieve the
pressure for money to pay railway and
other dividends July
The presidents of some of the leading
national banks were asked this after

Der of banks which were being

THE BLINDS DOWN.
Temporary Embarrassment of the
State Bank.

VA tAlO
State Bank.
The State Bank of Minneapolis tenn
porarily suspended payment yesterday
morning. A sign on the door III the
handwriting of President Kortgaard
says that payment is temporarily sus-
pended owing to heavy Withdrawals of
depositors. and adding the depositors
will be paid in full.
The facts of the suspension are as fol-
lows: The recent trouble with the
savings banks, and especially the run
on the local bank some weeks ago,
caused those having deposits lin savings
banks to feel some uneasiness. This
was the case with the holders of certifi-
bank. and since March l over 100000
has been Withdrawn in this way. The
bank was unable to stand the heavy
pull, and last evening q meeting of the
officers and directors was called for
consultation. 1t was at first proposed
to secure backing enough to tide over
affairs, but it was afterwards thought
best not to do so for the present.
Yesterday morning the assistant
cashier received notice that the doors
were to remain closed temporarily.
There was meeting of the heaviest de-
posltors at the bank this morning, but
President Kortgaard could not be pres
ent to meet them. 1t is said that the
idea Of having to close his bank has
completely Frustrated him.
The banks attorney has stated that
the suspension would only be temporary,
and that it would be only matter of
few days when the bank would resume

committee was afraid the expenditures
might exceed the available funds. and
voted to let the work rest until Supt.
Berry makes an estimate and financial
statement is secured SO that they might
know "where they are at" Afterwards
Commissioner Dahn telephOned in that
he would prefer to have the Lyndale
work done in preference tobuilding the
lake at Fairyiew park, and the superin-
tendent was instructed to continue the
work one block, the cost to be paid ont
of the $1,000 already appropriated for

Another meeting of the newly fedged
local passenger association was held
yesterday i'll the Office of Passenger
Agent Pratt, OF the st. Louis road, in
the Guaranty Loan building. The OBJ
ject of the meeting was TO elect a secre-
tary for the local body, which is
really an adjunct to the Western
association. A prolonged ses-
sion was he'd in the morning,
followed with another meeting i'll the
afternoon, but neither was productive
of results, and an adjournment was
taken until this morning. 1t was de-
cided that hereafter all ticket business
shall be done on a strictly cash basis,
and, this being blow direct
ed at w. B. Chandler, of the
West hotel ticket Office, who
has been allowed 10 run accounts as
matter of accommodation, and it is un-
derstood that he is now regarded in the
light of scalper. AS result or this
decision Mr.. Chandler threatened to
make rate of $3.50 To Chicago.
MIR. Chandler was seen by GLOBE
reporter last night, and he said that he
had cut the Chicago rate to $3.50 one
way, and $15 for the round trip. This
means reduction from the pool rate OF
sl.l0 for the single fare, and Sl.20 on the
round trip rate.
Regarding his attitude, Mr.. Chandler
said: "At the meeting of the passenger
agents today they expressed the opinion
that | an scalper, and am i'll the habit
OF cutting rates. As matter of fact.
have tried to be fair with the
local men, and have endeavored
to do the square thing, but
unit! they get ready to change their
opinion | will continue to cut rates. II
they meet the cut, will go them dol
lar better, and if my action results in
the people securing cheap rate to Chi
cago, and | hope it will, | shall be glad
of it,"
Speaking further he said that as a
matter of fact the roads had not aver
aged more than a seven-dollar rate.to
Chicago, when the rebates and fares
were considered on steamships, and
coast and through-rate tickets.
Mr.. Chandler was deeply iD earnest
about the matter, and if the breach is
not filled lively rate war war may be
expected. with music by the full band.
The reduced rate, he said, would be i'll

Through the Window.

For an entire year now the hundred
headed opposition, which | will not
name here. has been pursuing this task.
Among the enemies there are leaders
and there are dupes. those who know
and those vino do not know. The vic
tins in this matter are more hostile than
the cunning, because they are actuated
by conviction. This secret. deter
mined and uninterrupted work has been
carried on around the vatican. Triple
alliance and all the adherents of the
triple alliance, all the enemies of the
policy of Leo XIII. of every sort en-
tered into this conspiracy. When Will
lam ii. crossed the Alps and came to
Rome, their hopes were revived. AS
the bearer of the ambitions and the
promises of dynasties and OF the old
parties. the young German sovereign
would be able, they thought, to change
the atmosphere OF the peaceable city. or
at least an explosion would occur. The
infieXlbility of the pope aid his coun-
seIors would bend before the brilliancy
of the imperial graces and seductions.
Therefore, as soon as William IL. re-
turned to Berlin ruluorS commenced to
be spread abroad For fifteen days
Rome was filled with echoes of strange
voices. In all the superposed worlds
which constitute the originality ana
the mysterious attraction OF Rome there
was circulated the report that the holy
see, in a circular 10 the American bish-
ops, would modify its policy III regard
to the school question in the United
States; that the propositions of Mgr.
Satolli would be corrected; that Mgr.
Ireland would be
Dropped and DisavOyyed;
that the opposition would triumph, and
that the recall would be sounded along
all the line in Europe as we'll as in the
United States. This rumor, with
thousand mouths, created within GER
tain circles such a profound sensation
that for time everybody believed it
was well founded.
..But in short time knowledge was
borne in the simple fact that the Propa-
ganda. in response to request OF the
bishops. was about to address to them
