FINANCIAL REPORT.
Bankers Depore the Venezuelan Blurder, as They Call It-There Was Contfac-
 ton in Loans.

New York, Dec. 21.-The New York Financier says this week:
 The extraordinary conditions which sent money up to 80 per cent and caused collapse of values on the stock ex- change Friday are not shown fully in the bank statement for the week ending Saturday. There was sharp contrac- tion of $3,344,3OO in loans, decrease of $2,743, 700 in cash holdings and of $5,764 700 in deposits, the result of the weeks oper- ations reducing the excess reserve by $1,- 302, ,525.
 The New York banks have, however, nearly $1S,000000 in cash over the legal requirements, and their action in throw ing immense amounts of money at low rates on the market Friday, when 1t seemed that the panic of 1893 was to be duplicated in a more serious way, en- titles them to the lasting respect of the nation. They stood together, animated by common purpose, and when the present scare has blown over the true extent of their heroic and patriotic en- deavors to stem an adverse current will be better understood and more fully ap- precia ted. It is impossible in the present course of events to tell what the next week may bring forth, but the clearing house banks, while operated as purely business institutions, will by their firm policy of unity do more than any other agency to uphold credit and maintain real values.
 Leading bankers here universally de- plore the Venezuelan blunder, and dis patch from Chicago to the Financier says that nineteen out of twenty prominent bankers interviewed think that the ad- ministration has made a serious mistake. A Boston special to this paper says that bank officers there talk in similar strain. The total deposits of New York banks are now $517 290, 800, or $60,0 900 less than the highest figure reached dur ing the year; loans are $9,000,000 higher than the lowest point. With the prospect of large gold loan next week some of the $67 000, 900 in specie held by the banks will proba bly be absorbed by the treas ury, and the money market will, in all likelihood record the highest regular quo tations of the year. When the war scare ebbs there will be an influx of foreign money in volume sufficient to rapidly lower rates.

The Roman Way.

Rome, Dec. 2l.-The Italian soldiers slain in the battle of Ambalagi Abyssin- ia, were commemorated this morning in meeting held in the University of Rome. The gathering contained a strong leaven of socialists, who interrupted an address delivered by the president of Orator. by crying, Down with the African policy of Crispi" The rest of the audience re- torted with cries of "Viva, Italy and the Italian army" and the uproar was con- tinued for some time. Some of the so- cialists cried, "Viva Menele," whereupon a riot ensued. in which chairs were thrown and fists were freely used. many of the gathering being injured. Several students were taken into custody by the police outside of the university because they refused to disperse when ordered to do so. Later a crowd of 300 students a wreath upon the monument erected in memory of the Italians killed at Dogali.

when his name was ill-smelling at court and among his colleagues. MT. Cleve- land, it says is using the Monroe doc Urine in a similar manner, as the last dodge of a beaten party to raise smoke and drown a stench.
 The most notable feature of the arti- cles in these and other papers of the same class-conservative, liberal and radical alike-is the concensus of opinion that Great Britain cannot Submit to the humiliation of accepting the demands of President Cleveland.
 The Spectator, under the caption Of "The Death Warrant of Armenia says that President CleveIands s message is full excuse for all those persons who are desirous of silently deserting an un- happy people, It adds that it is impossi- ble for Great Britain, when so menaced from America, to risk the outbreak of a European war, in which, owing to the American hostility, she might be power less to interfere. The Moslems, it de- clares, can now carry out their plans. If there are no Christians left in Arme- mia there will be no Armenian question.
 The service papers do not discuss the situation from a service point of view. The Army and Navy Gazette protests that war between Great Britain and the United States would be criminal.
 The Naval and Military Gazette says that war would be a lamentable blunder that would not benefit any power.
 The queens health being feeble has obliged her physicians to order a stricter regimen for her. Early this morning she took cup of cocoa At noon she takes an egg beaten in wine At o'clock she has luncheon, which is the heaviest meal of the day. This consists of soup, fish and fowl. Then she takes short re- pose, followed by a drive or walk. At g o'clock dinner is served. Her majesty then drinks watered claret or glass of dry champagne.
 At a meeting of the English Church union, al which the Duke of New Castle presided, it was decided to petition the bishops to order clergymen to refuse to marry persons who have been divorced, such marriages being contrary to the law of the church and grieyous injury to Christian morality.
 The attempt to compel King Prempeh of Asba ntee to accept British resident and grant other demands made by the British threaten to be a harder task than it was at first expected. The war officers no longer say that the British expedition will merely have to march to Coomassie, the capital of Ashantee King Prempeh shows no sign that he is desirous of surrendering to the British. The Ashantees are armed with good rifles and have plenty of ammunition, their armament having been supplied by French traders. The great chief, Sam ory, who it was supposed was likely to be an ally to the British in their cam paign against King Prempeh, threatens to join the latter.

A SLUMP IN COTTON.
It Declined 80 Points Yesterday and May
 go Still Lower.

New York, Dec. 21.-(Special )--This was day to be remembered in the cotton market. Liverpool broke badly, altogeth- CT ignoring our partial recovery of yes terday. There was much uneasiness and a great rush to sell at the opening, the first sales of March being at 791, a de- cline of 30 points from yesterdays clos ing prices. The fluctuations between the two hours of trading were frequent and nervous, with much selling down to ITS and up to 7.9S. The close, owing to brisk covering by the shorts, was at about the best prices, March being 7.97@7.98, with the tone very steady. The bull and bear leaders seem to agree that, had it not been for the war message of the president, cotton would today be materially higher than a week ago, instead of lower. The movement continues light enough to war rant the most moderate crop estimates, and spinners at last admit that con- sumption is likely soon to overtake pro- duction, but the financial panic resulting from the fear of war has overthrown all the considerations that usually infiu- ence prices. The large majority of hold CTS, both here and abroad, seem con trolled by the apprehension that troub- lous times are ahead, and are anxious to be rid of their cotton at the best price they can get. The dread that the south s reserve holding may at any time be forced upon the market by the stress of the southern banks is potent factor in discouraging buying. While the feeling is very bullish on cotton upon its own merits, the financial outlook is so serious and disturbed that no one need be sur prised if prices should go still lower; but whether the war scare shall subside or grow more acute, we believe that sharp recovery for cotton cannot be far on. Fight or no fight. the spinners want cot ton and from present appearances there is none too much of 1t.
