MISTAKEN POLICY.
New York Bankers Decide Not to Let
Bonds Go Begging.

New York Bankers Decide Not to Let
Bonds Go Begging.
NEW YORK, Jan. 31.-Several Of the
bank officials who attended the confer
ence with the secretary Of the treasury
have arrived at the conclusion that it
will be mistaken policy to allow the gov
ernment bond issue to fail because of in
activity or lack Of support on the part of
tinanciers of this city. They have also
been influenced to this conclusion
by feals that if the issue
should no6 be successful, Secretary
Carlisle would endeavor to secure the
passage of Till authorizing the coinage
of the seignorage of silver bullion now
in the treasury. A further considera-
ton was the possibility of the reflection
upon the credit of the government by
the failure to sell the bonds. Under
these circumstances President King of
the Union Trust company has under
t.ken the formation of syndicate to
bid for the entire issue at the upset
price.

It Is Said to Be Transmitable by Tele-
phone-Some Doubters.
MILWAUKEE, Jan. 31.-An experiment
to show that hypnotic influence can be
transmitted for any distance over the
telephone was apparently successfully
carried out here. Professor Gregori-
witch, telephoning from Chicago, sue
ceedeA in completely controlling four
subjects to the satisfaction Of the hun
dreds gathered to witness the expert
ment. Some doubt, however, arises as
to the test being genuine one, as the
subjects were brought to the cafe. where
the test took place, by a special
friend Of Gregoriwitch, who jealousy
kept guard over them until after the e5-
pertinent. Each of the subjects. after
having been placed under the control OF
the hypnotist, remained under the in
huence exactly seven minutes. The
subjects afterwards stated that influence
of the professor came through the re-
ceiver Of the telephone into the hand.
The sensation was described to be SIM
liar to a cool puff of wind.
