Lumber Lost by the Floods.

Abbeville, Ca, Sept. 23.-The scene at
the Abbeville docks presented a busy,
workaday appearance this sabbath
morning. At 2 a. IN. loud report, fol-
lowed by steam whistles, the discharge
of firearms and the crashing of timber,
aroused the people of the town from their
sound morning slumbers. The hawsers

Grated and went with great velocity down

estimated that the value of the timber in

who are now hard at work in the effort
to overhaul the timber. Several large
rats have already been recovered. but
much of the timber will probably be lost

The Financial Outlook as Seen From
Wall Street
New York, Sept 22.-During the past
week, Wall street has been devoid of any
features of special interest. The volume
of transactions has been moderate, and
prices have been somewhat irregular. in
sympathy with erratic movements in the
industrial stocks. Railroad securities,
however, hold their own pretty we'll
London begins 10 show more interest in
American securities AS our change of
tariff policy is a movement in the direc-
tion of British ideas, it is natural enough
that the reduction of customs duties
should predispose Engishmen to our in
vestments. The first effects of this
change are apparent less in any open
speculative demand than In q stream of
inquiries from London to Wall Street in
vestment houses, evidently In contempla-
tion of careful and solid investments.
This tendency may be expected to
grow as business here revives and
railroad earnings improve; and later it
may easily become the incentive to more
active dealings in Americans on the
London aud continental exchanges In
deed, there is already visible improve
ment in the demand from London specu-
lative houses, although it is cautious and
tentative and follows closely the fluctua-
tions in the home market The proba-
bility is that, when our own people "set
the pacen by more active buying, London
will be found willing to follow us as far
as we may choose to go.
1t is dit1icult tof,see how England can
well escape a liberal return to transit
lantic investments. The London rate of
interest stubbornly remains unprece-
dentedly low and the Bank of England is
literally overhowing with idle gold Eng
lands home investments are relatively
high and yield exceptionally low returns
neither in her colonies or elsewhere does
she ind new enterprises of a character to

where she has so enormously and un-
wisely sunk her capital, such as Argen-

but nothing is presented sufficiently
meritorious to attract new OUTLAWS;
Australia has Disguised the lenders
whose hundreds of millions of capital
have been sunk there, and must expect to

criticise our methods Of finance, our
democratic institutions and our legisla-
tive policies as they may, Englishmen
can no where else find investments on the
whole so desirable as those procurabe at
New York at about the present range of
prices, This is fact so obvious even to
sinister observers. that 1t cannot fail to
sooner or later have its effect on this mar
ket. In view of the foregoing consider
atoms, deem it unusually safe to recon-
mend the buying of sound stocks upon
breaks in prices.

sisal Culture on Indian River.

Titusville, Fla. Sept 23.-Mr. Ernest
Svedelius is experimenting with the sisal
hemp plant at his plantation in Valkaria,
on the Lower Indian river in Florida.
Recently he has had on exhibition a sisal
leaf grown this summer, which measures
fifty inches in length and weighs nearly
eleven pounds The fiber which comes
from it is almost pure white, is as fine as
silk and as strong as any of the fbers of
commerce. The most simple and print
tive way of extracting the thread is to
place the leaf in cold water, where it
should remain about two weeks; then the
fiber separates itself from the
other vegetable matter by sim
ply drawing the hand up and
down the leaf once or twice. The Mel
bourne (Florida) Times says: THE peo-
pie of the east coast of Florida are neg
lecting splendid opportunity for mopey-
making by their backwardness in engag-
ing in the cultivation of the sisal plant
Mr. Svedelius is also experimenting with
the leaves of the pineapple plant, and is
getting better results already than those
Sc ured by the department of agricul-
ture in the Biscayne Bay region in 1892.
Florida can easily distance the Yucaton
growers if the east coast people will only
bestir themselves.

the men can live. Several others were
