BANK SIAIEMtNl.
The weekly statement OF the asso-
clated banks shows the following
changes: Reserve. increase, N,y3l SO;
loans, decrease, 2,5l2,1oo: specie. decrease.
s23l. e00 legal tenders. increase. sas7. 400:
increase, $4,000.
The banks now hold 53.i05.3Oo In ex-
cess of legal requirements.
The New York F'inanc.er says: 1.-THE
statement of the Associated Banks Of this
city for the week ending July l3, 1896.
Is the first in weeks 10 show a contraction
I'm loans, the net decrease being s25l2,70o.
The aggregate volume, however Is still
far above the average. The falling off
was not unexpected, since the business
transacted on the Stock Exchange during
the week has been much lighter than
usual. and the demand for funds has been
less.
zone year ago loans were declining regu-
larly week by week. while deposits were
pilng up steadily. and while loans were
then nearly 500 100000 less than deposits,
the difference is now but 100000. In
other words loans were then over s2s.C00
90 less than at present and deposits were
over $1,000. 900 higher than the amount
now held by the New York banks.
A CHEERING SIGN.
"a very cheering sign. even though It
may be due to temporary causes, is the
stoppage Of the movement from the inte-
ror to this point. The greater percentage
Of trade balances must have been can
ce.led long since. but money apparently
was sent here for the small interest IL
would earn. Last weeks shipments were
less than s1.000,000 and reports from diff
ferent centres show that trade is active
enough to require all the money that the
banks can furnish for the purpose.
Talk OF higher money rates in New
York still continues, but the outlook does
not warrant a prediction of much OF an
advance just at present.
"The New York banks increased their
deposits Si930.330 during the week. and
gained S755. 500 In cash. the loss OF s23l, 600
specie being compensated for by the gain
of sgS7. 90 in legal-tenders.
lowing to the contraction in loans, the
reserve increased H.3l,6

SETTLED THE DIFFICULTY.
After Cussing Each Other tho Two Mis-
sourlans Became Good Friends.

After Cussfng Each Other the Two MIS-
sourisns Became Good Friends.
"Cussin' out" used to be one of tho
ways of settling controversies in the
Ozark country. 1t originated, says
the st. Louis Globe-Democrat. with old
.Uz Findley and John Carter. The
Findleys came from Georgia. Old Uz
took great interest in politics, and
wherever he went he was followed by
q venerable negro named Bosen, whose
duty it was to steer his master home
ward when he needed help. At one OF
the early elections old Uz and John
Carter became very angry at each other.
1t looked as if nothing but fight
could settle the issue between them,
when suddenly old Uz shouted: mfr.
Carter, stand and be cussed." Carter
removed his hat, walked out about ten
PAGES from the crowd and told old Uz
and, walking out in front Of Carter,
said, with elaboration and emphasis:
"Mr Carter, if this earth was one piece
of parchment and the sea one basin Of
tnlc, and every quill upon earth was one
quill. and l had the power to use that
quill, that parchment and that ink, I
would fall short, sir, Of being able to
describe the corruption of your old
heart. sir" Carter said never a word.
but stood with uncovered head until
Uz was through. Then he said: "Mr.
Findley, stand, sir, until cuss you"
Old JTz bowed HIS head and Carter "a III.
mfr. Findley, had all the talents ever
produced in Europe and America COM
bined In solid phalanx, and was to un-
dertake to speak of you, 1 would then
fall short of describing the corruption
of your old heart, sir" This settled
the difficulty. The two men resumed
friendly relations. The custom OF
''cussin' out" was thus introduced in
the Ozark country.

Village of Interesting MexIcans In the
State of Morelos.
Tetxtcingo is the euphonious name Of
n village of one thousand inhab-
itants, in the district of Morelos.
state Of Morelos, which has pre-
served the customs and the lam
guage of it's founders, who settled there
in the remote past. The inhabitants,
says the Mexican Herald, are all Indians
Of the purest Mexican or Aztec blood;
they scorn the idea Of intermixture or
intermarriage with any other race.
Their boast is that they are pure Mex
leans. They all speak the native lam
guage; few understand Spanish, but
the great majority do not know one
word of It.
The men wear their hair long and
plated in tail like Chinaman. They
wear short pants, like those used by
kathers, made of deer skin or of cotton
woven by their women. The shirt, or
body dress. is made of cotton cloth also
woven at home. The women dress en-
tlrely in homespun material, and never
comb their hair, which they wear rolled
up IN ball on the top of the head. and
over it they put jicara made from
common gourd. They live upon corn
ard fruits and the flesh of animals and
birds trapped in the forest and hills.
They consume nothing whatever that
is imported, and they support them
selves entirely by their native produc-
sions. Gov. Alarcon, of the state of
Morelos. told Herald representative
that robberies are totally unknown in
the village.
