FINANCE AND COMMERCE,
Now York Stock Market.


NEW YORK, Feb. 12.-The feature of
the speculation at the Stock Exchange
to-day was the heaviness Of the Changers
and trunk line issues. These stocks
were weak from the start, the little rally
in the Industrials near tho opening
having had li:tle, if any. eff, C. on them.
ST. Paul was sold on a story that the
company intended to soil another block
of it's general mortgage bonds. This was
subsequently, denied. Burling ton and
Quincy was again weakened on the talk
OF D reduction in the dividend ratio.
Quito little demonstration MAS made
against the trunk limo group, and espe-
cially New York Central, which was de-
pressed from OK to 96% regular, and
from 07]6 to 973s seller sixty. Lake
Shore fell from 1905 to 125X.
Light east bound shipments and ru-
mors that traffic conditions were not
likely to improve soon assisted the
downward movement. The railway list
was also adversely Influenced by the
further break in May wheat here to
63x, talk about serious losses resulting
to firms and individuals having the phe-
nomenal shrinkage in the price of the
commodity, the blizzard at the West
and the uncertainty regarding the SEN
atorial action on the tariff bill. Read
ing was in better inquiry at slightly
higher range owing to Philadelphia sd-
vices to the effect that the management
had succeeded in placing o block OF coal
trust notes sufficient to liquidate it's
floating debt and thus release collaterals
held by banks in this city. The Indus
trials presented lrner front than the
railway list General Electric advanced
at one time on purchases to cover short
contracts but when these orders were
executed the stock lost the gain noted.
Sugar ranged between 79% and sou,
closing at the highest point. Traders
were inclined to believe late in the day
that the company would be accorded
some protection by the Senate. In tho
closing trading the market WAS some-
what tirmer for Lake Shore and New
York Central, weak for the Changers
and Louisville and Nashville and about
steady for the Industrials. Final deal
ings wero characterized by feverishness
day show losses Of Il to per cent out
side OF a few stocks, such as Sugar,
Reading, General Electric and Non
England, which gained % to Y per

closed weak. Sales: Listed stocks,

1t is related that some 20 years ago negro

coast and drifted to Washington, where, by
his industry and enterprise, he rose from
the position of waiter in n staurant to be
its proprietor, and ut last, with one invest
mcnt and another, became II rich and in.

His old mother was naturally proud OF

visited her and praised her son, telling hel
how prominent man he had become, she
answered:

Deafness Cannot BE Cured

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness and this is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous
lining Of the eustachian tube. When
this tube is infamed you have IA
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing
and when it is entirely closed, deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
hammatiOn can be taken out and this
tube restored to it's normal condition,
hearing will lie destroyed forever;
nine cases out OF ten are caused by
catarrb, which is nothing but an in
famed condition Of the mucous sur

at will work automatically" said
Carlisle. Blanks will not expand
currency unless the public needs it..
Their interest will be to expand and
contract as common interests demand
it. These interests will therefore
control at all times"
The Secretary stated this flexibility
was much more desirable Inan rigid
system, by which certain amount of
currency was outstanding. At one
time the stringency was so great the
banks drew out S13,000,000 under
pressure, and If it had not been for
the Canadian banks who sent cur
rency into this country serious results
might have ensued.
Comptroller Of Currency Eckles APP
peared before the committee and
made an elaborate statement. He
contended that the national banking
laws were not to be lightly dealt with
and should not be altered unless it
was absolutely known change would

CarlisIe's Currency Scheme.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 20.-Secretary
Carlisle appeared before the House
Committee ON Banking and Currency
to day to present in detail the fea-
lures OF the new currency plan pro
posed i'll his annual report and en-.
dorSed in the Presidents message.
Besides the full membership of the
committee Senator Romero. Mexican
Minister, and many members Of Con
gress were present.
Carlisle took up each section of his
recommendations
First-Repea' all laws requiring or
authorizing the deposit of United
States bon1s as securities for circula-
ton.
Second-Permit national banks to
issue notes to an amount not exceed
ing Is per cent. OF their paid up and
unimpaired capital. but requiring
each bank before receiving the notes
to deposit aguarantee fun consisting
Of United States legal tendes notes in
Guiding treasury notes of 1890, to the
amount of 30 per cent, upon the circu-
lating notes outstanding to be main
tanned at all times, and whenever the
bank retires it's circulation, in whole
or in part, it's guarantee fund to be
returned to it in proportion to the
amount of notes retired.
Carlisle said he was satisfied the
present law requiring the present de-
post of bonds to secure the circulation
prevented the elasticity of the cur
rency.
"The provisions outlined" said Car
Isle, "gives ample protection without
the deposit of bonds as required by the
present law"
Carlisle said the practical value of a
reserve fund of currency was shown
in 1893. There was a demand for
money aggregating S40,0OO,OOO. The
treasury did it's best to meet the
stringency but by the time the notes
were ready 10 be distributed the de-
mand had gone by and many pack
ages Of the notes were returned
unopened. The Secretary invit-
ed criticism on this particular Sec
ton.
Chairman Springer asked how the
Secretary's plan differed from the
Baltimore plan.
Carlisle explained the technical diff
ference. The Baltimore plan pro-
posed to deposit so per cent, under
certain conditions, while the Treasury
plan proposed to deposit 80 per cent.
When banks fails the Treasury plan
contemplated an assessment on all
national banks, they, in turn, having
lien on the failed bank.
Representative Hall Of Missouri
suggested there was prevailing opin-
ion that it was Unsafe to place the
power Of currency in the handso Of cor
ip0rations and banks.
