Rid the City of the Nuisance.

Something should be done to prevent the
throwing OF SO much broken glass and other
rubbish on our streets. The practice Is
becoming entirely too prevalent, either
for the safety OF horses or the comfort OF
bicycle riders
Possibly it is not done vicisusly or with
intent to do injury. but it is a violation Of
the law and steps should be taken to pun
ish offenders. Section 5. of the police regu-
Iations, reads as follows:
No person shall deposit. place or leave in
or upon any street, avenue, alley highway,

face Of rapidly rising and active stock
markets, such as marked last week. to
look for shrinkage in loans amounting
to 400. 700, which the statement shows.
The rapid fall in call money and the
competition between banks for com
mercial offerings since Tuesday Is an
other evidence that banks are not de-
creasing loans and 1t is still little early
to look for voluntary payments of OBJ
legations due banks. The condition of
the banks at the actual close of business
Saturday was, Of course, better than the
statement indicated and beginning with
next week, the expansion which set in
after November Sd, will be fully reflect
ed. The boarded gold now pouring into
the banks is bringing the clearing house
vault balances toward the $40, ,000, 900
mark and there seems to be no doubt
that the banks will soon resume the set
tlement Of balances in gold coin. The
banks, in fact, will probably show large
gains in gold from the treasury reserve,
since the specie will find its way into
bank vaults and thence into the treas
ury. Next weeks statement ought to
make very interesting showing in all
items as the clearing house institutions,
for the first time In months, will prob
ably be able to maintain their reserves
uniformly above the rs per cent limit.

CHICAGO, Nov. 7-Seven men and

schooner Rising Star, after drifting in a
helpless condition on a leaking vessel

Tuesday noon until Friday night, were
towed into port today by the steamer
Colin Campbell The schooner's crew
had given up all hope, and, worn with ia
tigue and exposure to the icy blasts,
were clinging to the rigging when the
Campbell sighted their signals of dis

The Rising Star, lumber laden. cleared
at Green Bay, Wis, on Tuesday for Chi

a leak. The pumps were manned and by
hard work the vessel was kept afioat.
The hold was filled with water and
,water-soaked bread alone kept the crew
from starving. In the terrible storm
which ragged Thursday and Friday the
deck load and upper works were carried
away. The boat drifted helplessly out

NEW YORK, Nov. 7.-Frederick G.
Koegel. who holds the, championship
long distance pedestrian record of the
world. called at the city hall today to
obtain the mayors signature to a form
Of certificate which he carried. Koegel
claims that last June he finished a walk
around the world on a wager of $4,000
against $4,000 with some San Francisco
men that he could not perform the task
in two years. He says that he started
from San Francisco in June, 1894, and
got back within the specified time, but
lost his bet because he had not been able
to get through Siberia, which was one
of the conditions of the wager. He was
refused permission to go to Siberia on ac-
count of George Kennan's book. He has
just walked back across the continent on
his way home to Bavaria.
During his walk around the world he
says he saw 400 Armenians massacred
at Constantinople and 800 at another
place.

MONEY IN BANK.

NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-THE Financier
says this week: The statement of the
clearing house banks for the week end
ing November 7th, covering but five
business days, is chiefly valuable as a
record of the furry Immediately pre-
ceding election.
the business of the week only up to
Thursday as a holiday INTERVIEWED it is
very evident that the recovery which
has taken place since the election is not
shown in the totals. For instance, it Is
known that several millions of specie
have been re-deposited with banks and
the gold is now in the clearing house
vaults, although the statement shows
only q slight expansion in specie. It
does not seem reasonable. either In the
