A novel way of hiring conveyances to

bicycle dealer in Berlin. He has re-
Gently petitioned the Berlin City coun-
ell for II concession to place some ESQ
stands all over the city of Berlin and
suburbs, where bicycles and tricycles
can be hired for a small fixed sum.
The wheels hired by the public can be
ind returned to any other of the stands
of this company. The wheels are paint
cd light gray, provided with bell,
lamp and holder to carry small pack
ages. A large number is stamped upon
the tubing in front and at both sides
of the frame, so that il would be impos-
sible not to recognize such a wheel as
one belonging to that company. The
hire fo- either bicycle or tricycle. is to
be 10 pfennige (Shc) for the first Is
minutes, and pfennige more for every
additional ten minutes. From mid
night to four a. m. the tax will be 10
pfennige for every ten minutes the
wheel is in use. An exact check is kept
on all transactions by means of dupli-
cate coupons, which arc issued when
the wheel is taken out and stamped
with a time stamp, one coupon being
kept at the station where the wheel is
rented, the other coupon being taken
by the rider. At the time he takes out

BUSINESS IS BLOCKED.
British Guianans Mourn the Disap-
pearance Of Hugh Sproston.


Georgetown, British Guiana, June 26.-
The financial crash which has been ex-
pected here ever since the boundary
question dropped down upon the colony
on top of the sugar depression, has come
with full force. The British Guiana
bank has been aided by the local gov
ernment voting 100000 as guarantee
for the banks liabilities, and even with
that assurance the IS currency notes
are being sold In many parts OF the
colony for less than 81. An examiner
has been appointed 10 look into tho
banks affairs, and number of mer-
chants are in trouble In consequence Of
the financial unrest.
The incidental reason for the crash
was the disappearance few weeks ago
OF Hugh Sproston, Jr.. probably the most
important man financially in the colony.
IT is said that he committed suicide by
jumping from one OF his passenger
steamers. but as no one saw him go.
doubts are expressed as to the truth
fulness OF the story.
Everyone, knowing that Sproston was
heavily in debt. took fright as soon as
the news of his disappearance was re-
ported, and a run upon the bank oc-
CURED at once. This might have been
met. but after while the people be-
San to remember that the bank notes
were not guaranteed, and the small
trades people Immediately began to re-
fuse them.
There was a rush upon the bank TO get
them exchanged for coin. AS the notes
for the British Guiana and Colonial
banks constitute nearly the entire cur
rency of the colony. and the two COM
bined did not have enough coin to re-
deem them. the government was called
upon to take action. owing to the fact
that great deal of government money
was in the bank. and its failure would
have meant the ruin of lalf the sugar es-
tates and merchants. the government
was obliged 10 guarantee the notes. and
at present there is a lull.
1t is feared that the lull will be the
forerunner of greater storm. as the men
who have been allowed to overdraw their
accounts with the bank will be forced to
either pay or sell out when accounts ara
Strengthened out, and the opinion is that
there will be great deal OF selling out.
However II turns out In the future, the
feeling Of distress here is greater, in COM
parison to the size OF the place, than 1t
was when the English began TO unload
United states securities when the boun-
dary question first came up, and almost
no business has been done since the dis
appearance of Sproston.
