A TITLED CONVICT.
Baron Won Hammerstein of Germany
Gould Not Endure Honest Prosperity.
(Berlin Letter)

Berlin letter.
Baron Won Hammerstein, formerly
the editor of Kreuz Zeitung and a
leader OF the conservative party in Ger
many, was sentenced the other day to
three years penal servitude, to be de-
prived Of his civil rights and TO pay a
fine OF $500 marks for forgery, fraud
and breach of trust. The baron's dis
grace Is almost as much of a sensation
In Germany as was the downfall of
Bacon In England. For twenty years
he was the all-powerful leader of the
conservative party in German politics.
He was discovered by Bismarck, who
was the first to recognize his energy,
courage, persistence and his magnetic
power over men in his own station OF
life. Originally an impoverished
nobleman, Bismarck put wealth and
power into his hands by placing him
at the head of the Kreuz Zeitung with
an annual salary of 1000 marks. This
paper was the organ and mouthpiece Of
the conservative party. The baron be-
came an eloquent speaker and his words
were applauded even by his political
enemies. Even last year, when many
knew of his financial troubles, he re-
tanned his control OF the conservatives
and was vociferously applauded in the
reichstag as the spokesman Of his party.
At last came public disgrace. The
affairs of the Kreuz Zeitung were in
vestigated and it was found that the
baron had flung away 1,0O0O 900 marks
He had stolen the pension fund of the
paper, forged drafts for immense sums
in the name of Count Won Keirstein and
was literally overwhelmed with all
manner of bad debts. This money, II
was ascertained, had been squandered
in a wild, dissolute life. in which
figured champagne orgies, high betting
and desperate gaming. Just before the
storm burst he fled to Switzerland
The sentence of Hammerstein ends

Put the earth up there in the place of
Jupiter and the naked eye would with
difficulty be able to see it. Jupiter is
1900 times larger than the earth in bulk
or volume, and its surface area exceeds
that Of the earth about 12O times.
1t would seem as II the ancients must
have had some inkling of the fact that
that planet is the largest of all tine
worlds that revolve around the sun
when they bestowed upon it the name
of the greatest of the gods.
We have almost no evidence what
ever touching of the nature of the ma
terials Of Jupiter. The spectroscope
cannot aid us, because Jupiter does not
shine by its own light, and the sunlight
reflected from 1t comes from the upper
surface Of its dense clouds, and conse-
quently makes no revelations concern
ing what lies beneath.
But the telescope shows that Jupiter
is covered with wonderful clouds con-
tinually changing in shape, and more
or less in color; that these clouds float
in an atmosphere of great depth, and
that they form perhaps successive lay

BANKS TO THE RESCUE.
THEY EXTEND A HELPING HAND
 TO THE STREET.
No Clearing House Certificates to Be Is- sued-There Is Nothing in the Situa-
 tion to Excite Alarm.

New York Oct 30.-It was rumored on Wall street before the opening of business that an informal meeting of certain bank presidents had been held up town last night for the purpose of extending every possible aid to stock exchange firms. This action, it was said, was due to the ad- vance in call loans to 100 per cent yester- day.
 About Il o'clock 1t was stated that meeting of the bank presidents was held at the Union League club last night Among those present were H. W. Cannon of the Chase National, F. D. Happen Of the Galatn National bank, William A. Nash of the Corn exchange and J. Edward Simmons of the Fourth National. They decided to take measures to assist the street, but not to issue clearing house certificates President J. Edward Sim mons of the Clearing House association said this morning:
 "There is nothing In the situation to excite alarm. The banks are abundantly able to meet any emergency that may Rrise and they will do so."
 member of the clearing house says: "There was no large house nor any houses of good credit yesterday which did not succeed in getting whatever funds were required to enable them 10 meet engagements The fact that there was no distress anywhere was clearly. shown by the total absence or cash Stoch in the market. It has been almost in- variably the case that whenever a stock house is unable to procure money 1t sells stock for cash, and in this way obtains suficiency of funds to pay its loan. A few small and inconsequential stock bro- kers, assisted by malicious bears, made an artificial rate for money that has ex- cited more ridicule than alarm An in- vestigation further proves that no one laid down on his bank. There will be no clearing house certificates issued. It Is evident to all thinking men who have examined the last bank statement that the banks are abundantly able to meet any monetary stringency that can possi- bly arise."
 Money on call opened at 50 per cent, dropped to 30 per cent and then loaned at 50 to 60 per cent.
