BRITONS SURRENDER.
Reluctantly Admit the Merit OF
American Style of Riding.

LONDON, Nov. 1.-THE Referee,
which is considered one of the highest
sporting authorities in England, pays
a great compliment today to Tod
Sloane, the American jockey. 1t says:
cat the present moment we do not
think We have a more popular person
age on the turf than little Sloane. If
the little 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 expert
ence and a comparison of the two styles
can determine which pays better.
AT both meetings last week Sloane
distinguished himself and he has be-
come such a faVOrite with the racing
constituency that he now has a strong
following in the market, while his
services are much sought by owners
and trainers. Whatever may be the
merits Of his style, there is no gain
saying 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 so in for the best
returns in winning mounts. If so, he
starts with a great pull, as he can ride
boys weight and can command a far
greater number of mounts than any
of the top sawyers."

PLATE GLASS.
Great Care and Skill Required In It's
Manufacture.

A visit to the plate glass works reveals
nothing perhaps more interesting than
the casting tables on which the heavy
plate glass used in most store windows
is cast.
The casting tables said the superin-
tendent of a large New York plate
glass factory to a Star reporter recent
ly, "are the most important pieces OF
apparatus in this establishment. Each
table is about 20 feet long 10 feet wide
and from Z to 8 inches thick. The
heavy strips of iron on either side of
the tables afford bearing for the roll
ers and determine the thickness or d.
ameter Of the glass to be cast.
The rough plate is commonly nine
siXteenths of an inch thick. but after
polishing it is reduced to six or seven
siXteenths. All casting tables are
mounted on wheels which run on a
track made to reach every furnace and
annealing oven in the factory. The
table having been wheeled as near as
possible to the melting furnace, a pot
of molten glass is lifted by means
quickly out on the table. A heavy
iron roller then passes from end to end,
spreading the glass to a uniform thick
ness. This rolling operation has to be
done by expert hands quickly. as the
boiling glass, when it comes in contact
with the cold metal OF the table cOOlS
very rapidly. When the rolling process
has been completed, the door Of the
annealing oven is on the same level
as the wheels of the casting table, so
that the transfer can be made by rail
quickly When the glass is ready to
be taken out Of the oven its surface is
very rough. In this condition it is
used for sylights and other purposes
where strength is desired rather than
transparency. But when intended for
windows it is ground, smoothed and
polished, and is then ready for the
market"

the bank itself is concerned, and no
reason why the reserve should be
greater or less for the one than the
other. The reserve should consist of
gold, and should be in the vaults Of
the bank or in a clearing house de-
pository.
Other questions regarding the best
plan for establishing and regulating
banking currency are answered by
Mr.. White as follows:
I'm general / approve Of the plan
adopted by the American Bankers as
ISOLATION at Baltimore in October. 1894.
commonly called the Baltimore plan
All bank notes should be redeemable
at the commercial center Of the coun-
try, and also at their own counters.
Perhaps an exception should be maze
Of the Pacific coast on account of dis
lance. The requirement of redemption
at the banks counters was found to
work no hardship under the Suffolk
bank system, since as much specie was
customarily deposited in the country
banks as was called for by depositors
or note holders"
O. What if anything, beyond provision for
immediate redemption is needed for secur.
ing the elasticity Of note issues in periods OF
normal business?
A. Ability to issue notes promptly is as
needful as prompt redemption.
Q. In times of panic sudden stringency
how would you provide for additional issues
by the banks to enable them to continue dis
counts and prevent commercial distress?
A. l would allow an extra issue to % per
cent Of the banks capital, conditioned upon
the payment of a tax at the rate OF per
cent per annum to the government as long as
the excess Of notes remains outstanding.
Q. OF what should the banks reserves con-
sist?
A. Cold
@. Should any national bank be permitted
to pay interest on the current deposits OF
other banks?
81 eminently one to be answered by the ex-
perience Of the past thirty years, during
which time the practice has existed
@. Should deposits Of country banks in re-
serve cities be authorized to be counted as
part of the required reserve?
A Yes to the extent Of three ffths, as
the law now provides. This proposition is the
result of experience, | believe, and ought
therefore to be accepted settled.
@. What should be the minimum capital
for national banks?
A. l am inclined to favor the present limit
of $4,000
@. Should the existing 10 per cent tax on
state bank notes be repealed?
Answer in the negative.
O. Should any national bank be permitted
to establish branches under It's single MAI
agement?
A. l see no objection thereto
Q. If so, under what limitations. II any?
A. / would allow any bank having paid
up capital of not less than 81, 900 600 to estab-
lish branches in its own state, and any bank
having capital of S., 600, 900 or more to estab-
lish branches in any part of the United states
| would allow notes TO be issued only By The
Darent banks, although they might be issued
TO and paid out by the branch banks, in the
usual course of business.

cotton to cover a scalp wound on the
top of his head. His demeanor was
calm. He was brought to court by a
police captain. Mandelbaum was I'M
able to appear, and a roundsman made
the formal charge Of feloniOus assault
against Kirk. Mandelbaum's physician
sent a certificate in which he stated
that he was unable TO determine at
present whether or not the wounds
would result fatally
Il am represented by Mr. Friend"

Counselor Friend appeafd at IHlS
juncture There being no bondsmen

NEWFOUNDLAND, TOO,

The new premier will probably, i'm
mediately on attaining power, claim a
representation for the colony of New
foundland at the reciprocity confer
ence between the United States and
Canada, now sitting at Washington.
His justification for this step is the
fact that the late James G. Blaine,
when secretary of state, signed reel
procfty convention with Newfoundland
land, dated in 1890. The British gov
eminent disallowed this treaty because
Canada was not included in its prefer
entail arrangements. Newfoundland will
claim that Canada is not entitled to
negotiate for reciprocity unless New
foundIand is included in the benefits of
the scheme.

RUSSIA PRoDs THE TURK.
Doesn't Propose to Have It's Old
Enemy Aiming.

CONSTANTINOPLE, Nov. IA. - In
connection with the announcement
just made by the Russian embassy
to the Turkish government that Russia
will demand the unpaid arrears of the
Russo Turkish war indemnity if the
Porte applies any part Of the Greek
war indemnity to an increase of Turk
ish ornaments. 1t is now pointed out
that, when, some time ago, Gen
Brialmort submitted to the Porte plans
for arming the forts at the entrance
of the Bosphords, Russia intimated
that she would consider this hostile
act. In Difference to the intimation
then given, the Porte abandoned the
Bosphorus scheme. Russia's attitude
with respect to the present plans for
reorganizing the Turkish navy Is
considered here logical result Of her
recent policy to keep Turkey weak.
