It noon in large quick lunch place.
A young woman, comedy as we'll as self re-
liant, entered and glanced deliberately
around In search of vacant chair.
She saw one that appeared to be unoccu-
pied, and providing herself with q cram
berry tart and cup of coffee started to
take possession Of It, But mans hat was
on the chair, and the owner Of the hat hap
pened to be at her elbow with his modest
luncheon In his hand. beg pardon, but
this seat is engaged" he said
Returning to the counter, the young
woman put down her tart and coffee and
started to find an empty chair She found
one in a remote corner of the big eating
room, and raising her hand to her head
she pulled out a couple of hairpins and
flung her hat into the chair with defiant
"There, that's taken''
She then brought over her tart and coffee
and enjoyed them In the consciousness that
she was dependent upon no mans gallan-
try for the comforts of life. -Philadelphia

Glad to Get Rid of Them.

Some years ago regiment of volunteers
was encnmped on the outskirts of a coun-
try town. Among those whose curiosity
led them to the enoampment were three
hardy laborers.
AS the three were stroliing round the
camp they came across large tent, over
which was written the following notice.
"Dinners-as much az you like for shil-
ling" Being hungry, the three went in
to dine
They began their meal, and after five
other parties had come in, dined and gone
again they were still busy eating. Presents
ly "a young man, evidently one Of the at
tendants, came up, and tapping one Of
them lightly on the shoulder said in low
voice:
Here, you chaps, my governor sent me
20 say that If you like to go now he won't
,harge you anything for what you have al
ready eaten. "-Pearson's Weekly. /

BRYAN AFRAID OF PIRATES
Prompt Measures Taken to Head Off the
RascaIs
Divers and Sundry Publishers Said to
Contemplate Pirating Bryan's
Book on Silver

CHICAGO. Jan. ga bill was filed
ty by Hon. William ]. Bryan and his
publishers the w. B. Conkey company,
through their attorneys, for the pur-
pose Of enjoining certain publishers in
Chicago and the northwest from pirat-
ing his forthcoming book, known as The
First Battle.
The bill was presented to Judge Hor-
ton, who granted an immediate injunc-
ton, without notice, against the Do
minion Publishing company, H. E. Hess,
president; H. L. Barber, manager; the
Hubbard Publishing company, e. R,
Curtis, A. H. Kuhlman G. Co., and 9TH
ers.
These parties were restrained from
publishing a revamped edition of the
old Hubbard campaign book sold dur
ing the campaign under the title of Bry-
an, Sewall and Free Silver.
The publishers of this book are charg-
ed in the bill with having attempted to
pirate the name adopted by Mr.. Bryan
for his forthcoming publication, The
First Battle
These defendants are also charged
with calling the book The Great Battle.
in imitation of the title adopted by
Bryan, and under which his book is to
be placed on the market.
INJUNCTION GRANTED.
PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 2S.-Today at
noon an injunction was granted on
substantially the same bill by Judge
Grossbeck. enjoining the PHILADELPHIA
end of the publishers syndicate from
issuing the book charged to be a fraud

Mr.. Bryan.

A STEAMER ON FIRE.
MONEY IN BANK.
A Large Amount of India Cash in New
York.

NEW YORK, Jan. 23.-The weekly
bank statement shows: Reserves, in
crease, 1896 ,275; loans, decrease, $11,-
O6O,5OO; specie, increase. $1,312, 300; legal
tenders, increase, IS, los, 800; deposits, in
crease, $6,093.30O; circulation, decrease,
1884, 100. The banks now hold $67, ,607, 500
in excess Of legal requirements.
The Financier says: There Is no ces-
sation OF movement Of money into the
New York banks, the reserve increase
for the week having been $4,s95, ,296,
which brings the total excess reserve to
$57.O67, 800, the highest reported in over
two years.
The decrease in loans shows the small
demand for funds at prevailing bank
rates of two per cent. but on the other
hand there is reason to believe there has
been some closing Of sterling exchange
operations which have so largely in
creased the loan item of the New York
banks, and thus an apparent decrease in
loans might be shown in the face of do
mestic borrowing. In other words, the
latter Is not ON as large a scale as the
exchange realizing. While the banks
are holding to their two per cent loan
agreement 1t is rumored some of them
have already, or will soon reduce the
idle oh current DdldHceS TO l12 per cent
The statement as a whole is an interest
ing indication in business previous to
election, the heavy export sales and the
liquidation in all lines, has forced on
New York an immense fund of idle
money, attracted in many cases by the
Sn. all interest paid on balances q.
course, the piling up of this money could
not occur were business active, but there
are signs that capital is becoming rest
i've, and Is endeavoring to seek chan
nels where 1t can find returns. With
cheap money and fewer debts than at
any time since the panic, the chances
favor a revival of business on a sure
foundation.
1t will be recalled that the bond sales
of the past few years furnished an op-
portunity to relieve banks of a large
amount of idle money, but no such out
let can be looked for now. The money
must lie where it is. or go into invest
ments of another character,
The recent rapid rise in gildt edged Sc
curfties like government bonds empha-
sizes the point that money is seeking
profitable fielG but this is a narrow one.
and Will have to be expanded Then
general commercial and industrial re-
Vival may be looked for with certainty.

DECLINES TO PARDON.
George Betz Seeks to Avoid a Trial for
Murder.

PORTLAND, Ore, Jan. 23.-The Chi
cago authorities will be compelled to
wait three years before they can extra
dfte George Betz, alias Bingham, who is
wanted there for murder. Betz is under
sentence Of three years in the Oregon
penitentiary for burglary, but in order
to allow the Chicago authorities to take
him on the charge of murder Governor
Lord issued pardon to Betz Judge
Sears of the state circuit court, before
whom the case was called today on
writ of habeas corpus, held that the war
rant of extradition from the governor
of Illinois was imperative as it was
signed by Governor Lord of Oregon be-
fore the governor issued the pardon to
Betz. He also held that the pardon was
imperative until Betz accepts it. Betz
has not yet expressed any intention Of
accepting 1t, and it Is probable he Will
serve his term. in the Oregon penitenti-
ary.

A material part of this evidence is in
