FOREIGN FINANCIAL.

NEW YORK, Aug. 12.-Evening Posts. Lon
don financial cablegram: The business In the
stock markets here today was entirely CEN
tered in Americans, in which the dealings
were enormous. The slight rise In New
York exchange was offset by rise IN the
price of coin. Prices closed practically at the
best. but animated street dealings are still
proceeding. The position here in Americans
is peculiar. Berlin is undoubtedly buying
largely 1t is equally certain that the English
public is also buying, but-and here comes
the peculiarity-it is apparently new public,
and side by side with the fresh buying eX-
tensive sales are made by those who have
difficult to say, therefore, whether sales or
purchases have predominated here-probably
the latter today. katfirs were weak o9e 10
an interruptino of the cable service and the
diversion Of attention to Americans. Gold
was in strong demand, but there were no
Withdrawals from the bank. The Paris bourse
has been steady, but the close was fiat.

CONSOLIDATE THE BANKS
Comptroller EcI<eIs Says 1t Will
Strengthen All Institutions.

CHICAGO, Aug. 12.-The AUGUST
number of the Rand-McNally Bankers
Monthly contains an article by Hon.
James H. Eckels, comptroller of the
currency, on bank consultations, in
which he expresses himself unhesi-
tatingly in favor of the tendency to-
ward consolidation, which has been
developing during the last six months.
Il am convinced" he says, that there
is not an important city in the coun-
try but would be strengthened in all
its interests by bank consultations.
Within the past few months they have
occurred in New York, st. Louis and
Kansas City. The example thus set
could be we'll followed elsewhere. 1t
ought to be. The truth is that many
commercial banks in recent years
have drifted away from legitimate
commercial banking, for the reason
that they have found themselves con-
fonted with so-called commercial
banks, born outside of any apparent
commercial needs. They have been
compelled through giving free ex-
change and payment of large interest
rates on deposits, to look to other
means of meeting expense and earn
ing dividends The channel into which
they have thus either drifted or have
been driven has been a dangerous and
i'll many cases a disastrous one. 1t is
to the end that conservatism may
be restored and legitimate and con-
tinuing earning capacity to bank
stocks be brought about that share
holders should seek, whenever neces-
sity requires it. the strengthening Of
the banks in which they have hold
ings by unions with others. In such a
plan would be found greater safety
to all, better banking methods, fewer
bank failures Steadier dividends and
less assessments upon bank Stocks"

WHEAT'S HIGH MARK
Continued From First Page.

from the Atlantic seaboard amounted
to COS bushels. Closing cablegramS
quoted the days advance at Paris from
33s cents to 1904 cents per bushel, and
that caused fresh advance to high
er price than before. September get
ting as high as 841a cents, and it ruled
strong from "a cents to S41a cents I'M
TILL just as the session was ending,
there was a rush to sell that tumbled
it to $50 cents. A large business was
done in corn, and the price at one
time showed I'd advance for the day.
At the close there was a very general
disposition to take profits on long corn
which resulted in loss Of a good deal
of the advance. The Eastern shipping
demand was good. Vessels were taken
for 100000 bushels. Seaboard clear
ances were $4,000. September opened
at 271a cents, rose quickly to 27% cents
and later in the day, to 2S5s @2S1A
cents, closing at PTS cents bid.
Trade in oats was active. Bull lead
ers in wheat took all the offerings. The
export demand caused the strength
which was maintained to the close.
September opened a shade lower at
17A cents, advanced to IS cents, and
closed u cent higher at 17A @17B cents.
Provisions shared in the spirit that
ruled so strongly in the grain mar
ket Trade was not very heavy nor
active till near the close, when buying
orders were largely increased, and the
early advance was soon considerably
added to. Prices at the close were not
far from the top of the days range.
Pork rested at net gain of Is cents,
lard 171a cents and ribs 1914 cents.
Estimates: Wheat, 165 cars; corn,
$50 cars; oats, $40 cars; hogs, 25,0O0

IF SHERMAN IS FORCED OFT
London Papers Say He Will Make 7
Hot for Hannn

LONDON Aug. 12.-The Westminster
Gazette this morning publishes a long
leading article, in the course of which
the opinion is expressed that, if Score
tary Sherman should be forced to re-
tire from the cabinet, he will make
Ohio too hot for Senator Hanna" add
ing:
at is awful to contemplate the ra-
suits of Mr.. Hanna being done ont of
his price for making Mckinley presi-
dent. Some innocents may object that
II sherman is TOO senile to hold office
but, as matter of fact, no one has
yet estimated how incompetent a man
must be before the senate is closed TO
him. In this he shares the advantage
of the house of lords" In conclusion,
the Westminster Gazette remarks.
I'VE are rather sorry if Secretary
Sherman is to be superseded, as in his
own rough way he expresses a phase of
American feeling which 1t is impor-
tant for us to know"

the million dollar mark in 1869. His
real estate holdings were extensive.

went into politics, and to this his
widow ascribes the loss of the greater
part of his fortune. In 1869 he was

sode, he was arrested by order of the
president of the United States.
