DAVID POWELL, GOVERNOR OF THE BANK OF
ENGLAND.
under such handicap must he attributed
to the great conservatism exercised in the
choice of its membership 1t is not long
since Walter Bagehot vouched for the fact
that there had never been a suspicion that
it was worked for the benefit of one man
or any combination of men"
Remembering that the bank has been do
ing business since the year 1894 and that
Mr. Bagehot could read more between the
lines of its history than any selected score
of ordinary men, that statement means a
great deal. The bank was founded to boil
ster up the moribund finances of the gov
eminent of William and Mary and was in
stituted as a joint stock company with a
capital of 81 ,200,0 900, all of which il loaned
to the government at 8 per cent interest.
Its charter has beeu renewed and modified
at various times since then, the last time in
1874, when the limit of the notes TO be is
sued against the government debt to the
bank was fixed at GA, 100000. Besides this
the bank has legal authority to issue notes
or securities to the amount of fl6, 20O, 600,
but above that sum notes can only be is
sued Ia exchange for gold. The amount OF
notes in the hands of the people averages
225, 100000.
David Powell is the present governor OF
the bank, and his salary is $4,000 year.

terribly excited state and he attacked
his ia!ioy prisoner with extraordinary
ferociSy, striking him, and, horrible to
relate, biting OFF both his cars.
When he came to himself Machant
became very penitent and asked to be
taken to the bedside of his victim, who
was now in the Bicetre hospital, in
order to ask his forgiveness. DIR.
Landry, who was there, said: Should
you like to give him back his ears?"
'Ccrt;:inly," said the man. "Then,"
said the doctor, "let me cut couple of
small slips of flesh from your arm and
it can be done" The man consented
and the doctor did as he had suggested.
The pieces of flesh he shaped as well
as he could to the likeness of pair of
ears and joined them to the wounded
places. According to the latest ac-
counts the operation has been a COM
plete success.

INCREASE IN TENANT FARMING.
Figures Which Show the Growing Power
OF the Mississippi Valley.

Figures Which Show the Growing Power
or the Mississippi Valley.
The percentage of farm-hiring fami-
lies in Iowa in 1890 was 2957. The Der
ccntage of hired farms in Illinois in
1880 was 31.3S; the figures for 1899 are
not yet published, but the growth OF
tenancy in other states indicatcs; that
the percentage will not be less than
40. Between 1880 and 1890 Wisconsin
gained 6,750 owning cultivators and
1871 tenant cultivators; Iowa gained
only 1881 owning cultivators and 49,
5G3 tenant cultivators. The percent.
age of tenancy in Minnesota increased
from 9.i5 to 1925. In Nebraska the
percentage of tenancy was 1S. OF in 1880.
The figures for 1890 are not out, but
the area cultivated by tenants of the
state increased from ,63S acres in
1884 to !, ,497, 470 in 1890, and A. f. Bent
1ey's monograph on Harrison, Neb.,
taking that as typical western farm
community, showed that of 1876 owners
of the land in that township, fifty-one
had never been resident in the town,
and ten had lived there and moved
away; 1890 acres in that town were
cultivated by owners and $500 by ten
ants. Between 1880 and 1884 the num-
Der of Michigan farms cultivated by
owners diminished seventy-four and
the number of rented farms increased
3,454. What do these facts indicate?
According to the New York CONNER
cial Bulletin they indicate that where
as twenty or thirty years ago the cal
tivators of the soil had all tic prod
ucts, considerable and growing fruc-
tion of the farmers of the west ~ we'll
as of New England, New Jersey and
the south, now, with the prices of
produce lower than they used to be,
divide the products with the owners of
the land.

A LITTLE STRIKE.
Mechanics at the Union Iron Works
Air a Grievance


There was little strike by workmen at the
Union Iron Works last Saturday which re-
suited in temporary suspension of the work
being done on the British tramp steamer BaWu-
more, which ran upon the rocks on the coast
and was damaged. She was repaired by the
Fulton Iron Works and subsequently certain
tanks had TO be put into her and for that pur-
pose she was taken 10 the Union Iron Works.
The men who were set to DO this work ex-
pected 10 be paid at what is known in the trade
as 'old-work' wages
The management thought different, however,
and ciassed the labor new work." which
calls for much lower rate OF wages than the
"old." Consequently the mechanics held a
meeting and APP olnted a committee 10 settle
the matter with the company. the men declaring
they would not return 10 work until an AMIGA
bic settlement be brought abOut by which the
proper compensation would be given.
h. L. Scott, president of tile works, met the
commi lee yesterday morning ana stated that
lie had no desire TO listen 20 wOTkmen out OF
bis employment and until the force returned 10
their labor he would positively take no steps 10
the matter.
This statement was made known to the strik-
ing force, half Of which returned to work i'm
meostely, while those remaining have since
agreed 10 follow this morning. The matter
VIII again be presented to Mr.. Scott.
