LOVED HIM TO DEATH.
Dignifed Society Leaders and Silly
Miss es Made a Man Suicide.

Webster City, Iowa, Dec. 12.-Sworn
testimony today proved Ira Fitz, who
committed suicide at Williams Friday,
was beau without a peer.
He was in correspondence at the time
of death with nearly 100 girls who had
seen him on one time or another, had
become infatuated with him and pest
cred him with letters found in his valise
There was something so charming about
him that when women first looked upon
him they were stricken with love. In
half the cases the victim would follow,
and become so persistent in her atten-
tiOns that he would be annoyed and dis
gusted, and finally flee. There were
popular young ladies who swore they
did not know what made them love him
so. The fact that Fitz was such an at
traction for the ladies was not his
fault, for in the end it caused him to
take his life. There are a number of
instances reported where young society
women have shown a distinct liking for
him on first sight, and have had him

Comptroller of the Currency.

Money in Bank

NEW YORK, Jan. S.-The weekly bank
statement shows the following changes:
Surplus reserve Increase, $6,475, S25; loans
increase, $1.s95,S00 specie increase. $1,S57,-
500; legan tender increase $7.250,100; de-
posits increase, $1o,52S, 200; circulation in
crease, $64, 700. The banks now hold $22.-
264,b75 in excess Of the requirements of the
25 per cent rule.
The Financier says: The conditions out
lined in the analysis of the bank state
ments for Dec. 31st. indicating an easier
money market, are reflected in a still moro
noteworthy degree in the exhibit of the
clearing house for the week ending jan
9Th. The banks have gained heavily In
cash aud deposits and the surplus re-
serve is $6,475,S25 larger than seven days
ago. The statement includes the dividend
period for the first Of the year. What this
means is shown in the fact that the clear
ings for the week In New York exceed, one
thousand million dollars. The expansion
of SO. $500 In deposits and the gain Of
$o,101s0 represent the payments of inter-
est which have been made. Part Of this
increase, however, can be attributed to
the interior movement, which is bringing
81, 100000 into New York every week. This
money was first attracted by the tenn
porary high rates prevailing gbut its re-
turn from this time on VIII be purely
nominal operation. The reserves Of the

New York banks for years past have been
swelled from January well into the spring
by reason of interior remittances, the ex-
pansion being regulated by business con-
ditions. There is no reason for believing
that the movement will be less than in
former years and the only inference is
that money will be easier AS the trade
balance in favor Of the United States seems
to be growing, it would not be strange if
the investment in sterling exchange. now
approx mating $40 O00, 00O was increased.
The Bank of England reserve Is lower than
for years. but as a hearty increase is
usually made after the beginning of the
year, it looks as If money in Europe is
following the same course as in the United
States. 1t need not be repeated that il
will necessitate most favorable business
outlook to absorb the full total of the
money now available. The fact that the
treasury is getting on a self-sustaining
basis may relieve the situation somewha,
by stopping the steady stream that has
been pouring into the market because of
continued deficiencies. Another fact is the
gradual withdrawal of government deposits
now in New York banks. The demand for
loans is increasing also, and will operate
to steady rates.

up by the government of the total amount
would probably involve the withdrawal
OF sufficient sum in the money market
to serve quite effectively to steady rates of
interest. The high rate for money was
reinforced as a factor OF the stock market
depression by the forebodings expressed
by two prominent railroad presidents on
Monday, that there would be no profit in

Later developments suggest that the ofiic-

demand for the bath variety is the real
cause of the sharp advances, and buyers
for foreign houses have paid higher
prices than American buyers could at
ford to pay, as the war in the east caused
suspension OF the fishing in Greek wa
ters and a consequent scarcity of all
grades of Mediterranean sponges, such
as bath, toilet, cup and surgeon. Bath
have enjoyed the most demand, and OF
this variety Cuba has been a large pro-
ducer. The crippling Of the fisheries Of
the island by the war has turned the at
tention of European buyers to the Flor
ida. grass sponges, and the fishermen
have been encouraged by the high prices
bid to largely increase the catches. This
sponge is very popular as bath sponge,
on account of the toughness of its fiber
There Is every likelihood of prices in
this country remaining high for some
time, on account of the scarcity, and also
by reason Of the increase Of 10 per cent
in the duty, thus doubling the rate
which has prevailed for several years
Naturally. there are some houses which
are loath to raise prices to their custom
ers, hence they have resorted to all of
the subterfuges so long practiced in thi;
business, such as packing the goods In
an inferior manner, mixing selections
and sizes, etc. Many houses, however,
are keeping up former high standards
and educating the buyers up to the new

CHICAGO MARKETS
Yesterdays Transactions on the Board

CHICAGO, Jan. S.-The action of wheat
during most Of the early morning was in
line with the early news. The rain and
cold wave predicted by the weather bureau
failed to appear, which weakened those
who yesterday feared for next seasons S
crop Liverpool showed %d. advance,
which was hardly up to expectation, and
early Argentine news was quite bearish.
The result was somewhat bearish feel
ing at the opening. May wheat opened
at 9lB@911s, against 91B at the close yes
terday, and In about half an hour It had
got to 917s@91A. The Duluth market again
came to the support of the bulls by ad-
vancing cash wheat there from clasps in
a few minutes. 1t was thought here that
the advance could have been, and probably
was manipulated from Chicago.
1t had a bullish effect, Notwithstanding
Paris and Antwerp each quoted moder-
ate advance for the day, and that was an
additional bullish factor. Baltimore re-
ported a large quantity of wheat sold for
export after the close of change yester-
day, and foreign bids today at 1 cent over
yesterdays bid prices. The latter informa-
ton, together with the higher quotations
from the continent, caused a rally to 91M
but it slid back to 91A, and was at that
point ten minutes from the close. In that
ten minutes. however, the market turned
strong again, and at the close May was
offered at 91%.
Business in the corn pit was dull, and
prices moved within a small range. The
close showed a decline of Is.
Oats were dull and without feature. May
closed unchanged from yesterday.
