What New York Ba mixers say of Finance foy
last Week.

NEW YORK, July 1.-THE New York
Financier this week says: The statement
of the associated banks for the week end
ing July 2lst, reflected no Improvement or
expansion of general business during the
week and but little of actual present cOndi-
tions. With the exception of specie, there
was a decrease in every item in the state
ment and the exhibit of over $500 coo 600
more deposits than loans was neither en-
couraging nor significant of any business
revival During the week loans contracted
to the extent of $ol 600, making the present
aggregate loans of the banks $4S2, "a, 800,
against $409 1871 500 for the corresponding
time last year. Deposits also decreased $423,-
700. leaving the total net deposits of tha
clearing banks now $685. lGV. 500. This is $685.
624, 800 more than they Wsre at the same
time last year, and is both Il clear and
practical illustration of the present stagna-
ton IN the demand for money. The gain
in cash during the week was small. amount
ing to but $66.300 which was made up Of
gain in specie, of $209. 500, but offset by a
gain the actual cash holdings of the banks
are now 1922, 3S8, 500 which is $125, 026300 or a. f
most two and half times more than their
total cash holdings on the same date a. year
ago The interior currency movement was
again in favor of New York during the
week, and from it the banks gained about
$l,4S00O0, and through operations with the
subtreaSury they also gained some $1S0.0O0.
AS the statement was made upon the aver
columns and prior to the, withdrawal Of
the gold which was exported on Saturday, it
does not reflect all of the exports OF the
week, which amounted to $3.300000. When
these total exports are reciIoned, the gov
ernments gold reserve is found to have
fallen to almost $6l. 900 600, which is consid-
CARDS present money holdings it is not
worthy 10 remark that, While the total
cash holdings of the New York banks are
$l4 600, coo larger than at the opening of the
year, the actual specie holdings are $15,-
600. coo less. BY the above mentioned changes

Mortsngers Claim Redemption One
ear After Sale.

Little Rock, Ark. July 21.-A case of
much interest to persons who have been
lending money in Arkansas was brought to
the attention of the suprem4 court this at
ternoon. although motion to advance for
a hearing out of the regular order was de-
MED. There are two cases pending in the
court in which mortgagers claim the right
of redemption year after sale by the
court and that the sale cannot ID made
under the mortgage except at price two
thirds of the appraisement. 1t is conceded
that all mortgage sales out of court are sub
iect tn r dempton and appraisement, but
nearly all sales under mortgages are now
made through the chancery court. and
have been made without the year redemp-
ton stipulation and without an appraiss-
ment. Several weeks ago, Judge Caldwell,
of the United States circuit court, sustained
the contention made for redemption and
appraisem.nt Should the appeal be sus-
tanned all the sales in the state for several

Little Loves.

Little loves there are to me
Such as world-loves seldom see;
little loves that sweetly sing
Little arms that sweetly cling
Round my neck, so tenderly!
Little loves there are to me.
Little loves there are to me,
In the May the rose will be,
And the winds, in springtime hours'
They will tousle all the flowers!
Yet, from waves of Memory
Little loves there are to me!
Little loves there are to me:
Where a child walks perfectly,
There my footsteps still would go
For | love them--love them so!
On the land, or on the sea,
Little loves are dear to me!

Trouble Was Prevented in Church

this afternoon the first annual meeting of
the Carrolton Methodist district conference

which was only stopped from being turned
into a frst-class row by u speedy adjourn
ment sine die.
When this call was made, Rev. c. c.
Carey, of the Carrollton church, arose and
made a report that some of the members
believed reflected on the character of the
church members. ThereupOn Mr. Jesse r.
Griffin promptly arose and contradcted the
statements. lively spat ensued, but the
presiding officer DR.. A. W. Williams. stop
ped it successfully. This was during the
morning. Later in the day Mr.. |, B. perdue,
who is one of the oldest of the church mem
ilege, as he said that he wanted the church
conference. The chair responded and said
that if Mr.. Perdue would confine himself to
the question alone, he might have the floor.
No dealing in personalities would be al
lowed the chairman said. Rev. Mr.. Carey
thereupon sprang to his feet and said that
that he would certainly reply to it. Mr..
Griffin then attempted to speak to the
same end and Rev Mr. Carey went for

Pulaski BLOWS UP.
Four Hundred Pounds of Powder Elk ploded
in the Historic Old Fort.

Savannah, Ga, July 20.-An explosion OF
400 pounds of loose powder at Fort Pulashi
at 9 o'clock this morning fatally Wouhoeo
Ordnance Sergeant William Chinn seriously
injured Mary Washington, his mcther-ln-
law and set fire to the fort, causing inter-
mittent explosions of fixed ammunition and
doing much damage to the fort. just a1tef
breakfast Sergeant Chinn went into the
storeroom, where he had his carpenter tools,
to do some work. In the room were several
casks of POWDER in all 400 pounds. and a
lot Of fixed ammunition. He took as he has
been in the habit of doing for some time
during the summer months,
handful of dry powder from one of the
open casks, wet it at the pump, and then
placed it in the middle of tn room. lie
ignited 1T in order to drive out the mos
Guitoes, which had been abundant. 1t seems
that in carrying the handful of powder from
the cask day after day, he had left trail
of dry powder from the middle of the floor
right up to the barrel. AS soon as ne had
ignited the powder it burned along the trail
and the entire 400 pounds exploded.
There were three large explosions, each
within q few seconds of the other ana ne
was knocked down three times in trying to
get out the door He managed to get as far
as Foreman Austins quarter, where the
medicine chest was kept. Mary Washington,
his mother-in-law, who was approaching
the door at the time was knocked ABOUT
forty toet ana DaQIy burned ABOUT the ldSe
and arms. The woodwork of the classmates
in the southwest corn ar of the fort, was lS-
nted and the large, heavy beams burned
slowly and for a long time.
The StorerOOm, where the fire started, was
right adjoining the magazine in when
was stored two tons of powder. There was a
five-foot wall between but the constant eX-
plosion of the heavy loaded shells in the
storeroom gave ground to the fear that a
breach would be made in the magazine
wall and the two tons Of powder exploded.
This kept everybody out of the way uhul
Captain o. NJ. Carter. the government en-
gneer who has charge of the fort, went
down and made an inspection. 1t was 1ouno
safe to enter the magazine and th1fty-tWo
casks of powder We're hurriedly taken out
The men then began to play on the lire
with q hose, and tonight had 1T under
control
Within 200 feet of the fire was 500 pounds
of dynamite, which. in case the magazine
had blown up, would have exploded from
the conclusion.
AS it was, however, only the southwest
corner of the fort damaged. Two OF
the classmates were burned out and the roof
overhead was destroyed by the constant
bursting of loaded shells. The fort has
quite historic record. It was built by
General Gilmore and afterwards bombarded
by him from Tybee island until a heavy
breach was made in the southwest corner.
This was April 10 and H. 1862 1t was de-
Tended by Colonel c. H. Olmstead, of the
confederate forces.
Sergeant Chinn, who in charge. is of
the TWenty-fourth infantry. He was burned
and bIstered over three-fourths of his body
and will die.

His wrinkled palms grow warm; and when

Through morning glories met the twilight

He gave his wan and withered heart away.
But all the sacred f1re
Of youth was gone! The words that once

Upon his vacant lips did seem to tire,
And all the birds had lost their ninStrelSy!

The New York Bank Statement.


The Cincinnati Price Current says: This
corn crop situation is more serious From
lack of moisture. 1t is already more or
less permanently injured in portions of Iowa
and districts elsewhere. Without relief
quickly the crop will be largely cut short.
Threshing returns maintain gains in the
wheat yield over calculations. Spring wheat
advices are irregular. Conservative obserV-
ers are counting on fairly good yieldn,IIt-
tie, if any below that of last year Inc
weeks packing of hogs was 2loooo against
100000 last year.
The Northwestern Miller says, regarding
the crop prospects in Dakota: According
to the latest reports from the Northwest
the wheat yield will this year be about the
same as it was last year, providing the
weather for the next week IS no more
unfavorable than it was at the correspond
ing time last year. The warm, dry weather
has materially FASTENED the ripening OF
grain in the last few weeks. The crop is
very spotted and results will vary greatly

The Iron Trade.

The Iron Age says Poor as was last
year for the rail mills, TINS year is even
worse. During the nfst six months of 1898
the rail shipments We're 5T,SSi TONS While
the sales aggregated 745 lU tons. During
the first half of the current year the total
deliveries We're only 10000 tons and the
total sales 502,000 tons. Last year the three
western mills, counting Cambria among
them, shipped 1898 tens. Tlis year their
total is only $4,000 tons, and curiously the
two largest delivered practically the same
quantity, $1,000 TONS while their sales were
nearly alike, 900 and 1400 900. The largest
business was done by the Lackawanna COM
pany which took orders aggregating 1885,,
600 tons and shipped over 900 tons. When
it is considered that the normal renewal
demand of the railroads of this country
must be 100000 to 100000 tons annually
the restriction in the requirements this
year will be appreciated. 1t is a fact, too
that SO far the east is concerned the
requirements for this year have been pref
ty we'll covered, and that the natural ter
ritory of the eastern mills will furnish very
little more work this year. The situation is
probably better in the west Yet one
great southwestern system which has con-
tract for $4,000 tons with a western mill
has not yet drawn upon ii at all.

Never brings you dimes!
But they sing from day to day
Time is rolling by;
Whatsoever people say,
Better sing than sigh!
