RELY ON THE SYNDICATE
Continued from First Page.

American travellers abroad. are RESPONSE
Bile for the heavy demand for exchange.
1t is known that the syndicate has all
the gold it needs. and it can in no way suffer
loss by transferring a portion of it to the
United States Treasury, as it has derived
all the benefits accruing from the sale Of
bonds. Should the syndicate refuse to
make further deposits for the purpose of
maintaining the reserve, 1t would not pre-
cipitate a panic or cause any general dis
arrangement of business.
Those interested in trade are pinning
their faith to the declaration of James Still
man, president of the National City
Bank of New York, to the effect that the
associated banks stand ready at any time
to supply the Treasury with as much gold
as may be considered necessary. The Ma
tional City Bank holds SS,OO0,OOO In gold,
being larger sum than any other insti-
tuition in the country holds.

eating Dogs. Ears.

Itwas probably first introduced when
bulldog fighting became a fashionable
amusement, and the earhaps were all
most totally removed to prevent them
from being torn and mangled by con-
tending dogs-for the same reason, in
fact. as was the combs of fighting
cocks and the hair cropped close from
the heads OF pugilists. But this dis
creditable pastime is now abolished; SO
there is no occasion for ear cropping,
even in the case of bulldogs, and GER
tainly no valid excuse can be offered
for this exhibition of depraVed taste
with regard to other breeds of dogs,
and especially terriers-animals which,
as their name implies, have need for
the pendulous ear to guard the en-
trance to the auditory canal while bur

A PecnIinr Glass.

The announcement made recently of
a German method of producing glass
which will transmit light freely, but
no heat, is founded upon the following
statement of details, presumably from
the source of operations: A plate of
this material, one-fourteenth of an inch
thick, containing 2. per cent of iron
in the form described as ferrous chic
ride. allowed only 4. per cent OF radi-
ant heat TO pass through it. while an
other plate of equal thickness, and
containing quite as much iron as ferric
chloride, permitted Ill TO pass The
chemical distinction is exceedingly
small, but the effect is very marked.
Using oxide instead of chloride, and
again having IL in a ferrous condition,
! per cent produced glass having a
faint blue tinge, but even more imper-
vious TO heat than the other sample
A layer 1892 inch in thickness allowed
only "a per cent of a bats wing gas

from lime light, but il would trans
