NyW YORK FINANCES.
A Clear Illustration of the lmproyad Condition
 by facts and Figures.

ny dts anu lS ulSS'
 New York, June 29.-The New York Financier says this week: The amount of surplus cash in the New York banks was reduced $2,Sls,925 during the week ending June 29 the total, notwithstand- ing, being S9i, ,225. .925. No better illustra- tion of the improved condition of business is needed than to recall the fact that the excess reserve for the corresponding week last ys-sr was $74.79i. 325. with total loans of -$i75.0l4, 100 The increase in loans. therefore, has been S43, 900 and the decrease in tie reserve $i0,37S,200
 The present loan volume has exceeded all previous records, and few weeks continuance of statements such as have been issued by the clearing house banks lately would, under normal conditions, send up the money rate to fgure more in harmony with the situation. Unfor- tunately fer the banks. however, such an advance Is impossible. The decrease of 3.5ad ,0G0 in specie and legals for the cur rent week coming in the face of the fact that interior money is still being addel to the deposits of the New York banks. was due to the bond syndicate, which used over COCO 600 in completing it's pay ments to the treasury. Had il not been for that the reserve would have shown an increase.
 Another circumstance which will oper- ate adversely on the money rate is the fact that the bond syndicate owes the banks some $1S,O00,0 GOO or $2O.O0O00O for gold advanced, and this is to be paid shortly. It is not expected that the July dividend payments, which will be un- usually heavy this month. will be large enough to affect the market under such conditions, and the anomaly of record breaking loans and minimum rates of interest will probably last for some time

The Utica Observer. Of NV York,
in reviewing the benefits of the new
tariff in the reductions of tariff duties,
says that immediately after its adop
tiou, factories were opened, idle men
were set TO work, wages were increased
and that many OF the mills in tho coun.
try were crowded to their utmost Gu
pacity to fill orders. All of this ii
ascrbes to the new law, and it is right.
Continuing, the Observer says:
''ln the schedules including iron
and wooden goods the reductions were
greatest. In iron the average reduc.
tion was 81 per cent, and in woulcus
90 per cent. Yet in iron aud woolon
! factories is the greatest increase in
activity noted aud III these two
branches are the advances in wages
: most general. The lesson is very plain.
1t does not require Solomon or II
Newton TO discover it, 1t is simply
this: High tariff leads to low wages
low tariff is accompanied by high
wages. The proof Is whelming. "
As it remarks 'the lesson is very
plain. " and it is only those who will
not learn who cannot be made to un.
derstsnd the true situation OF affairs.
The new tariff only needs be given d
fair trial to have its beneficial effects
eeen an6 felt on all sides.

DISCIPLE OF LUKELA.
Her Method of Curing Physical
and Matrimonial Ills.

Mr.. EDIToR:-Having seen some
thing of the doings of the Lukela,
the most noble and princely pro-
phet of Waikiki, Maui, | wish to
tell the public something of one of
his disciples who lives at Pukoo,
Molokai. A few months ago a
native man and woman were mar
ried, and Immediately after they
left the priests house the woman
took the steamer Mokolii for Homo
lulu and has not returned or writ
ten letter to her new husband.
About a week ago a blind boil
appeared on the husbands face.
He went to Lukela's disciple to ask
her advice, but she said that he
must first give her half a gallon of
whiskey in order to insure a speedy
cure. The man, being poor, told
her that he had no money but
she told him that he could not be
cured unless the spirits were forth
coming, whereupon the man sold
everything he had to procure the
panacea. When the disciple had
the whiskey safely slowed away,
she told the suffering husband that
the house was no good because his
wife had gone away, and if he did
not want to die soon he had better
leave the house altogether, after
which his face would get better.
He left the house, and now he is
wandering about the island in
search of divorce.
