HIS is THE ESSENTIAL FEATURE
OF THE WEEKLY BANK
STATEMENT.
HANGES ARE COMPLICATED.
RDINARY OPERATIONS MINED
WITH THE FIRST UNION PA
CIFIC PAYMENT.
:anI,ers Still Talking of RedUc-
ton ON Country HaInnces, but
No Definite Action.

|, NEW YORK, Nov. 20.-The New
4 FORK Financier says: The statement
IF the New York clearing house banks
, or the week presents no feature of
4 Importance beyond the plain evidence
\ hat money is still accommodating at
his center. The weeks changes, how
4Ver, are so complicated with the Union
I Pacific foreclosure settlements, which
oegin Monday with the transfer of the
sinking fund bonds to the syndicate,
that a definite Interpretation is some
what difficult. The first payment of
/ $4,000 900 is to be made through the
depository banks, and preparations to
that end have been finally completed.
The contamination explains the heavy
balances by some of the banks at the
clearing house during the past day or
two, and also the increases and de-
creases in the totals of the statement.
Thus the actual increase in deposits
can be traced to eight of the larger
banks The accumulation of cash for
the week was no less than So, $50, 800, but
it is noteworthy that the reserve of
the bank which has taken the leading
part in the Union Pacific fell off 81, $780,,
600. Some of the more prominent banks
I mentioned in connection with the plan
i have gained in cash, but there is no
doubt that the expansion was due in
a perceptible degree to the flow of
funds from the interior.
The loan increase is also involved in
the causes already mentioned. The gain
for the week cannot be attributed to
. mercantile needs, from the fact that
the expansion of one bank, which has
been advancing money to the Union
Pacific syndicate, was over S., 500, 900.
The truth of the matter is that the
loans of the rest of the banks have
contracted $3.50 since the previous
statement. AS matters stand the total
increase in the loans of the New York
banks since Nov. has been SCOTIA, 800,
but as the loans of the one bank men
toned have in the same time grown
about $12OOO,OOO, the only inference is
that the demand for money for bust
ness needs has fallen off and that ma
turing loans are being liquidated.
This explains the present ease in
money rates. Good commercial paper
is scarce, and but little money is be-
ing loaned in the West in channels
which usually absorb large takings at
this season. The season of an inward
flow Of money is at hand, and unless
something unforeseen occurs the out
look is for continued cheap money.
Bankers are talking of a reduction of
interest in country balances, but moth
ing definite is forthcoming on this
point.

Tried to Sacrifice His Boy.

Samuel Hostettler, a young farmer
residing near Wooster, Ohio, while la
boring under religious excitement at
tempted to offer up his young son as a
sacrifice last Tuesday evening He
carried the boy into the rear yard and
gathered a large quantity of wood.
The boy helped his father get the wood
and was itvhigh glee over the pleasure
he expected to get out of a bonfire.
The young wife came to the rear door
of the house and watched the prepa-
rations curiously for moment. She
did not anticipate the intention OF her
husband until after the pile was in
readiness to light and Hostettler drew
a razor from his pocket and called the
child to him. Realizing the fate IN
store for her child, she rushed toward
her husband crying for an explana-
ton. He told her that he had been
directed by Divine power to offer up
his child as a sacrifice and explained
that he was going to cut his throat
and burn him on the pile of faggots,
and warned her that she would go to
hell if she interferred. She tried to
pull the child away, but failed, and
then she fought for the razor. She
finally got the razor, but not until her
hands and arms were cut badly.
Neighbors got the husband under con-
troll, and he was lodged in jail.

is Life Worth livinu Z?

If there is an ind ividual on earth who Is eX-
cusabe for thus interrogating himself. II Is
the unhappy mortal who suffers from malaria
in some one OF its diabolical forms. This is
no difficult conundrum, however. Life is
worth living by any man or woman who en-
lows good health, and is not barrassed by a
reproachful conscience. The malaria scourge,
heavily Ia Id on, is a terrible one for the poor
sufferer to endure. A series OF freezings,
screenings and sweats-the last leaving one
as limp and as strengthess as dish rag, are
hard indeed recurring as they do with riepd-
ish regularity. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters
is the worldwide known preventive and
curative nf this class OF maladies, either in
the foIm of ague and fever. bilious remittent,
dumb ague and ague cake. Used with per-
sistence they will, rely upon 1t, eradicate dis
ease from the system. They also conquer
rheumatism, kidney and bladder complaints,
nervousness, dyspepsia, liver complaint and
constipation, and renew falling strength.

Baptist congregation of this town for the
use of their organ during the session OF
this institute. Also TO Mrs. J. G.. Wilt

"Burial of Satan"-Good News.

A dispatch from Mountville, n. c.,
says that over 5000 colored people in
that vicinity have quit work in answer
to call to assemble for the burial Of
Satan" who, they say, has just been
convicted by jury of twelve angels
and sentenced to everlasting burial in
that place. These people have been
holding a revival meeting in the town,
and as result of collection they
bought bell to adorn their church.
1t was upon the first ringing Of this
bell that some of them said they de-
tected the announcement that the bu-
rial of Satan was at hand and that the
ringing must be kept up continuously.
The ringing has since been kept up
and the colored people have been
thrown into high pitch Of fervor, in
which they forget all things of earth
and rave like lunatics.
Every day the number Of the dew
otees is being added to from the sur
rounding country, and the result is
that the cotton is standing unpicked
in the fields while this wild demonstra-
ton is in progress. The attending col
ored ministers say they have attended
the court of heaven in person, where
God, the Judge, after Satan had been
convicted by jury of twelve repre-
sentative angels, passed sentence on
him, turning him over to the colored
people of Mountville to bury once and
forever. Ten minutes are now allowed
between the intervals Of ringing the
bell, during which the attending crowd
sings vociferously and declares all
manner of revelations.
