REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR.

There are very few men who aren't
ashamed OF some Of their relatives.
When a man admires a married wom-
an and she knows 1t she will never
admit that he is homely
Why is II when women sleep together
they always spend half the night talk
ing about their husbands?
When a man tells other men about
his approaching marriage he tries to
use jaded, matter OF fact tone.
A woman never sees fissy little
wadded net cap for a baby without
wanting to snuggle her face down in
1t.
The worst tempered woman in the
world tries her best TO look angelic
when she has her picture taken with
baby on her lap.
A woman can never quite understand
what Is going to become OF her hus-
band when they get to heaven II there
is no such thing as marriage there

NEW YORK BANKS.
Encouraging Statement as to Loans and
Decrease In Surplus.


Decrease in Surplus,
New York, December l2.-The Finan-
cler says
The surplus reserve OF the New York
clearing house banks. after having in
creased from S,S2S.55 on September 5
last to So. .t6I. 400 December 8, shows
signs OF halting, the decrease for the
week ending December II being SS5S ,050.
This contraction was brought about
mainly through the enormous extension
OF loans.
The increase in loans is the largest
reported since the election, and Is In
Itself striking evidence OF the present
workings Of the low money market
on November Z, the total loans OF the
New York banks were $442, ,l79,7OO The
total for the week just ended was S4SS,-
5OS, 500 showing an expansion of SAL
S9a, 500 in about one month. The growth
for the past week therefore, was al
most 80 per cent OF the whole. But 1t
is probably true that part OF this un-
paralleled increase comes from sources
other than those arising from CONNER
Gal demands. Sterling exchange op-
eratons, by which local capital is be-
Ing used abroad, figure heavily In the
loan column. although It would be late
to dispute the fact that the needs OF
trade have aided In bringing an unpre-
cedented upward movement which
seemingly has not eliminated.
The peculiar position which the New
York banks occupy today towards for
eign commercial centers is illustrated
in this statement. The crop movement
having virtually closed, money Is flow
ing into the New York banks faster
than It can be used, and the result Is
remarkably busy market. How much
money we received from abroad during
the late season of stringency cannot be
estimated with accuracy, but our enor-
nous exports have made foreign ma
tions debtor to the United Statese, and
instead OF getting their money back
in the form of balances, they are COM
PEELED to borrow ON this side to relieve
the stringent conditions there, This
has never happened before.

THE LAURADA.
VIII Not BE Permitted TO Enter the
Spanish Port Of Valencia.

Washington, December 1z.--The trou-
Bile arising over the attempt Of the
American steamer LauraAa TO enter the
port Of Valencia. Spain. has been fully
communicated to the authorities here.
senor Dupuy de LONE. the Spanish
minister. was at the state department
and Il Is understood his main purpose
was 20 confer with Secretary OIney re-
garding the Laurada. No announce
ment has been made Of the attitude OF
the United States but there Is good
reason to believe that the officials OF
both governments will act together 70
prevent sensational Developments.
a careful watch has been kept on
the LaUrada for many months and II
Is claimed her present movement to
a Spanish port Is designed TO precipl-
tate an outbreak and some indignity to
the American flag which she files. AS
evidence OF this. 1t IS pointed out that
the Laurada has chosen to go to the
Spanish port which has shown the most
excitement during the present trouble.
II was there that the student riots
were aroused and excited the mob that
threw stones at the American consulate.
