DAMAGED BY HEAVY WINDS.
Three Vessels Came Into VINEYARD
Haven Yesterday.

VINEYARD HAVEN (Mass.), Nov.
14.-Three vessels came into port to-
day more or less damaged by the heavy
winds of the past week. The schooner
James D. Sewall, Newport News for
Boston, came in with the loss of her
main and part of her nizzenmasts. Her
Captain reports that when twenty five
miles off the Highlands of Navesink on
the 18th, during heavy northwesterly
wind, the mainmast head was so badly
sprung that all sail was taken off that
mast. The schooner ran along with
head sails and her spanker until
o'clock Saturday morning, when off the
Montauk in heavy sea the mainmast
head fell to the deck, carrying with il
the mizzenmast head. The foreSail was
also badly torn and the main boom and
gaff broken The hull however was
not DANA ged, and by the use Of the head
sails she managed to reach this port.
The schooner Commerce, Rockland
from New York, carried away her jib-
boom during a heavy squall off the
Isles Of Shoals.
The schooner Henry Lippelt. Bruins
wick, Ca, for Boston, while anchored IN
Vineyard Sound yesterday. had her
windlass butts SO badly damaged that
she could not weigh anchor. The Gay
house life-saving crew went to her as
sistance, and after working some hours
she was finally gotten under headway.

a great compliment to-day to Tod
Sloan. the American Jockey. 1t says:
AT the present moment we do not
think we have a more popular person
age on the turf than little Sloan. If
the American goes on doing as we'll as
he has been doing, we shall probably
have a school of imitators spring up.
His method is superior to the English,
but only prolonged experience and a
comparison of the two styles can de-
termine which pays better
At both meetings last week Sloan dis
tinguished himself. and he has become
such a favorite with the racing con-
stituency that ne now has a strong
following in the market, while his SER
vices are much sought after by own
ers and trainers. Whatever may be
the merits of his style. there is no
gainsaying that he possesses the art
of jumping horses off quickly, and also
keeping them going straight, which is
more than many can do 1t is said
that he will lay himself out next year
and go in for the best returns in win
ming mounts. If SO. he starts with a
great Pull, as he can ride boys weight.
and can command a far greater num-
Der Of mounts than any of the top saw
yers.

matched the trousers. He stood before
the bar ungloved, holding his silk top

head and chin was wound q narrow
bandage of white cotton to cover a
scalp wound on the top of his head.
His demeanor was calm. He was
brought into court by a Police Cap
tain. Mandelbaum was unable to ap-
pear, and a roundsman did the formal
charging of felonious assault against
Kirk. Mandelbaums physician pre-
sented a certificate in which he stated
he was unable to determine at present
whether or not the wounds would result
fatally.

failed to find his wife in her room
when he returned to the hotel Saturday
and went to Kinks room and kicked
in the door. Kirk is said to have fired
five times at the intruder. One shot
entered his body just above the heart

baum struck him with blunt instru-
ment.

fore to the Porte.

CONSTANTINOPLE, Nov. 14.-In
connection with the announcement Just
made by the Russian Embassy to the
Turkish Government that Russia VIII
demand the unpaid arrears of the Rus
so-Turkish war indemnity if the Porte
applies any part of the Greek war in
demnity to an increase of Turkish ar
maments, it is now pointed out that
when some time ago General Brialmont
submitted to the Porte plans for armin g
the forts at the entrance of the Bos-
phorus, Russia intimated that she would
consider this a hostile act. In defer
ence to the intimation then given the
Porte abandoned the Bosphorus scheme.
Russia's attitude with respect to the
present plans for reorganizng the
Turkish navy is considered here as a
logical conclusion of her recent policy
to keep Turkey weak.

White as follows.

banking currency are answered by Mr..
White as follows:
In general / approve of the plan
adopted by the American Bankers AS
sociation at Baltimore in October, 1881,
commonly known as the Baltimore
plan. All bank notes should be re-
deemable in the commercial center OF
the country, and also at their own
counters. Perhaps an exception should
be made of the Pacific Coast on ac-.
count of the distance The require
ment of redemption at the bank
counter was found to work no hardship
under the Suffolk bank system, since
as much specie was customarlly de-
posted in the country banks as was
called for by depositors or note-hold-
erS.
Ouestion-What, if anything, beyond
provision for immediate redemption, IS
needed for securing the elasticity or
note issues in periods Of normal busi-
ness?
Answer-Ability to issue notes
promptly is as needful as prompt re-
demption.
Question-In times of panic or sudden
stringency, how would you provide for
additional issues by the banks to en-
able them to continue discounts and
prevent commercial distress?
Answer-I would allow an extra IS
sue to % per cent of the banks capi-
tai, conditioned upon the payment of
a tax. at the rate of 5 per cent. per an
mum to the Government as long as the
excess of notes remains outstanding.
Question-Of what should the bank s
reserve consist?
Answer-Gold.
Question-Should any national bank
be permitted to pay interest on the cur
rent deposits of other banks?
Auswer-I see no objection thereto.
Question-Should deposits of country
banks in reserve cities be authorized
to be counted as a part of the required
reserve?
Answer-Yes, to the extent of three
fifths, as the law now provides.
Question-What should be the mini
mum capital for national banks?
Answer-I am inclined to favor the
present limit of $4,000
Questfon-Should the existing 1O per
cent. tax on State bank notes be re-
pealed?
Answer-In the negative.
Question-Should any national bank
be permitted to establish branches un-
der its simple management?
Answer-I see no objection thereto.
I would allow any bank having a paid
up capital of not less than $1,000 900
to establish branches in it's own State,
and any bank having a capital of
II Jfc1 h,.a, has
in any part of the United States. I
would allow notes to be issued only be
the parent banks, although they might
be issCed to and paid out by the branch
banks in the usual course of business.
