TO $1,575,s06 are not included in this finan-
cal statement The total deficiency for

machinery.

ing that prepayment in full OF all mall mat

SPOKE IN BIMETALLIsM's WHEEL
Credited to the Thunderer and the Old
Lady of Threadneedie Street

London, Oct. 1S.-The afternoon pa
pers today echo the opinions Of the
morning newspapers in congra tulating
the government upon finally disposing
Of the bimetallic scare and expressing
regret that it should lever even have
seemed to receive support in high quar-
ters." Hugh c. Smith, governor of the
Bank OF England, said today to repre-
sentative of the Associated Press:
THE bank is private company with
out any government central and is not
responsible to the government except in
the terms Of its charter. The govern
ment cannot issue any orders relative to
the banks reserves. At the same time,
the government is the banks best Gus
toner, and, the court of governors being
composed of law-abiding citizens. when-
ever the government makes request
We do our best to comply. The govern
nIent must be presumed to know what
Is best for the country.
The press has been filled with mis-
statements. The government were ask
ing if the bank were willing to renew its
offer made at the Paris monetary con-
ference in 1881, regarding its reserve.
I replied in the same tenor as the men,
orandun which the banks told the con-
ference, though more guardedly. This
is all that happened. The statement
that the bank has been coquetting with
the American commissioners is pure
rubbish. Excepting what 1 have read
in the papers have never heard of
these gentlemen"

City of Windsor, Nova Scotia, Almost De-
stroyed Sunday


Halifax, n. s., Oct. 1s.-Historic Wind

the province, was devastated by fire yes

was absolutely helpless to cope with it.
and within half an hour after its discov-
cry the mayor began to call for outside
assistance. Long before noon the town
had been eaten up almost completely,
the area covered by the flames being
nearly a mile square. and Of the 400 or
more buildings occupying the section,
barely half dozen scorched structures
remained.
Windsor, N S., Oct. 1s.-The complete
extent Of the disaster to the town Of
Windsor was not fully disclosed until
this morning.
In all the fire-swept district only the
court house, customs house and Mounces
hotel stand intact.
The vaults of the Commercial bank,
the Halifax Banking company and the
postoffice have stood the severe fire
test. The Peoples bank vault has not

warped, and 1t Is feared that papers and
valuables have been destroyed.
The bitter cold wind which blew all

clothing is speedily brought into the
tows, much suffering will result.
Most OF the people burned out escaped
with little wearing apparel.
Conservative estimates place the in
surance at $5S2, 900. not more than 30 per
cent Of the loss. This morning. trains
from Kentville and Halifax brought hum

Springfield. Mo-, Oct. 1s.-Raymond.
the 12-year-oid son Of A. D. Allen, stem

school this morning carrying portion
of a stick Of dynamite. The explosive,
which the boy had found in stone quar-
ry, was in his pocket with a knife. top.
marbles and a quantity Of other things
common to boys pockets. In getting into
his seat the boy banged his dangerous
collection Of old junk against the desk,
causing an explosion which will proba-
bly, cost his life and which was heard
for several blocks. The child's right
hand was blown off, and in his right
groin a terrible wound was inflicted,
from which the surgeons say the boy can
not recover. The teacher, Miss Mack.
was close by. and had her skirt torn into
shreds, but she was not hurt. The ex-
plosion caused panic among the other
children,a and several were hurt in trying
to get out Of the building.

bersh;p Of 10 are to be chosen in the
Greater New Yorw territory. The effect
of this. a state issue In the main. Is likely
to be felt IN the vote for officers OF the
city.
The registration Of Saturday, (the final
day.. was larger than anticipated and the
Tammany.tes appear to be most jubiiant
al this development, though leaders OF
the other political divisions claim TO be sat-
isfied and confident. Justice VanWyck
still adheres to his policy of silence and
refers all interviewers to his Forthcoming
letter of acceptance.
The campaign committee OF the Jefferson
democracy came out today with a state
meat that William Jennings Bryan IS n
favor of Henry George for the first mayor
CT Greater New York. They based their
statement upon an interview which sp-
peared in the Evansville Qnd,) Courier
on October s, and which was only discover
ed today.
On October Mr.. Bryan delivered an ad-
dress in Evansville. and afterwards he was
interviewed on the situation in New York
City.
According 10 the paper mentioned, this
is one of the questions asked and the reply
made:
do you think Henry George will De
elected mayor OF Greater New York;
II think he has a splendid chance OF
being the next mayor Of New York He
is well known TO the people OF New York
City. The masses believe in him and vii
support him at the polls. / do not think
national issues will cut much figure in
the New York election
No letters or kilograms have been re-
ceived from Mr.. Bryan by any OF the
George managers that would tend 10 cor
roborate the above statement. and as far
as known he has not been asked for his
opinion on the situation here.
Philadelphia, Oct. 1S--The executive
committee of the National Municipal
league has issued an address to friends
OF good government throughout the Uni
ted States" the burden OF which is a de-
nunc:ation of Tammany Hail. and plea
for the election OF Seth Low as mayor
OF Greater New York.
Chicago, Oct. 1s.-Mayor Harrison may
not go to New York October IS 10 speak
in the interests of Judge Van Wyck, in &C
cordance with his agreement with Rich
ard Croker. Many of the mayors advisors
believe it would be unwise from a political
point of view for him Il go to New York
and mix up in the four-cornered mayor
atty fight now in progress there. and urg-
ed him not to play II Tammany's backyard
al the present time. The mayor has not
decided just what he will do in the mat
ter, but it IS considered highly probable
that ne may decline the invitation TO 60
east. A committee from the Cook county
marching club called on the mayor today
and offered TO escort him on his contem-
plated journey east. One hundred and
fifty of the famous silk hat brigade have
signified their intentions Of going.
