NEW YORK BANKS.

New York, Sept 1.-THE New York
Financier says this week:
For the first time since July II the
last clearing house bank statement OF
New York city shows Increase in their
reserve. The statement for the week
ending September IL does not, how
ever. reflect the full effect of heavy
operations incident TO the imports OF
over $23,OO0.OOO Of foreign gold to this
side. That the banks at the close OF
business Saturday held more cash than
the statement credited them with is al
most certain. but as is usually the
case, the gain will be slow in showing.
That the gold imports are relieving
the strained situation of the past
weeks is plainly apparent Instead Of
the heavy collection of several mil
lions in loans, which has marked the
statement for weeks past, the decrease
last week was light.
The heavy forward crop movement.
fastened in the South by conditions
now prevailing there, and in other sec
tions by favorable rates, are bound 10
continue the gold imports and thus en-
able the New York banks to ship funds
to the interior with greater ease than
would have been the case had crops
been slow in moving. 1t will be sign
of greater activity over the country,
therefore, if the reserve of the New
York banks is slow in increasing this
fall.

AFFAIRS SERIOUS
In ARMENIA
Further Nassacres Are Anticipated
Representatives Of the Pow
ers Meet.
SULTAN RELIES ON JEALOUSY
To Save Him Once More from Com
plying with the Demands Of the
Powers to Set Matters Right
and Punish Offenders.

constantinople, Sept. l2.--More off,
GERS have been arrested for demanding
their pay and resigning their commits
sions when informed there was no
money for them. But there Is plenty Of
money and provisions for the strong
bodyguard OF the Sultan and for the
troops which constantly surround the
palace and It Is believed that this dis
play Of force alone saves the sultan
from witnessing demonstration that
would surely open his eyes to the dis
graceful state OF affairs existing.
The full text Of the note which the
representatives OF the powers sent to
the sultan on August 81 has only just
been communicated TO the press. II
adds that the savage bands which muir
derously attacked the Armenians and
pIllaged their houses were no acciden-
tai gatherings Of fanatical people, but
that there Is every indication of reso-
luton and that 1t was known TO, II
not directed by. the authorities. The
note OF the powers then under seven
specific charges. gives evidence Of the
support of the sultan. 1t made de-
mand that the instigators and principal
actors in the tragedies be punished
with the utmost vigor. AS usual the
porte is relying upon the jealousy ex-
listing among the six powers to save
the sultan once more.
The news from Armenia shows that
a very serious condition Of affairs pre-
walls there and that further massacres
are anticipated. The representatives
Of the powers met again today and dis
leussed the situation but it is not
known that they came to aPy decision,
although communications with their
respective governments are being con-
stantly exchanged.

THE PUBLIC LIBRARY.

1t has been remarked that the libra
ry is always asking for money. This
we think is so, for the need is contin-
ual. The expenses of the library are
about $40 a month, and until some
good citizen endows 1t we must work
along as best we can to raise that
amount, The reading room is usually
hlled with readers in the evening. This
indicates its need. In another column
note the ad. of the entertainment for
the library fund. If you don't enjoy
entertainments, subscribe something
direct to the library stipulate If you
like to what use the money shall be
placed--the general expenses, buying
books, or some needed improvement.

The joint political debate by A. G.
Rankin, of Pittsburg, Pa, and Willis
G. Silverthorne, of Wausau, Wis,
took place before large audience at
the Dodgeville Fair, on Thursday of
last week. Judge Silyerthorne had
the better voice and manner, and In
that part OF the discussion which
related to tariff taxation he took the
solid ground Of commercial freedom,
and made by far the stronger and
more logical argument. But 1t Jared
badly with him when he threw to the
winds the good old Democratic doc
trine Of sound and stable currency,
based on coin of full intrinsic value,
and stood out In the open to champion
the Chicago PLATFORM, which demands
