The New Bonds

A large demand for the new 8 per cent
war bonds continues to be among the in
teresting features of the securities market.
Notwithstanding the fact that deliveries of
the bonds to subscribers are now being rap.
idly completed, the increased offerings in
the market are rapidly absorbed, and the
present week has witnessed an advance In
their price to l05h. 1t is noted, however,
that the demand is, in the main, for ma
tional banks for use as security for circula-
tion. This process does not necessarily In
volve an increase in the amount of national
bank notes outstanding to the full amount
of the new government 8 per cents acquired
by the banks. In many cases the transaction
merely involves their substitution for bonds
of the old and per cent issues and the
marketing of blocks of the latter formerly
deposited in the treasury against existing
circulation. 1t is, however, worthy of note
that this increased selling of the older gov
ernment bond issues has produced little inn
preston upon quotations for them and that
the magnitude Of the investment demand
results in their ready absorption. As re-
CARDS the new per cents, there is no doubt
that though the popular subscription pre-
vented the issue from passing largely into
the possession of banks in the first instance,
. considerable proportion Of them will even
tually find lodgment in that quarter and
supply the basis for an increase in the ma
tional bank circulation.

John II. Gish,s 10000

To the Editor Of the Los Angeles Herald: !:
The gang of patriots" who are doing pol
itics for the Gold Republican organization
in Los Angeles county, as il well known,
felicitated their party adherents to re-
markable degree at the close OF the county
convention on the assumption that the
hungry hordes" of officeholders had been
turned down, and that brand-new deal
was the order, and healthy precedent es-
tablished of rotating the Offices in the camp
of the &. o. p.
The fallacy of this claim was soon made
apparent when the office-holding record OF
the Gold Republican nominees was looked
into and exposed. 1t was found to the great
surprise of the uninitiated that the men
Just nominated had held down fat public
places, and had been supported by public
funds lone hundred and thirty-eight years.
adding the different terms together, while
the combined terms of the officials turned
down make As years only. So much for
Gold Republican consistency.
One OF these new "rotaters" in office is
John H. Gish, who first drew salary from
the county OF Los Angeles in 1886, but it is
thought that he started in 1884; but as we
have no record in hand only from 1856, we
will use that, so there can be no successful
contradiction:
The amount received by Mr.. Gish from
the county before he was elected city tax
collector was S2586.36, and by his family,
Ss25.50; total received from county, $339l go
The amount received by Mr.. Gish from the
city before he was elected city tax collector
was $3.50. .l3, and as city tax collector at end
of term, $4,000; total received from city
ending year 1898, 81, ,650. l3; total amount
received from city and county since 1855,
$16,050.99.
Should he be reelected tax collector he
will have been in office off and on for six
teen years, and will have drawn over $50, 900
As stated before, the amount is much larger,
but the date above simply covers the
amount specified. A TAXPAYER.

NEW YORK, Oct. 19-Only a few days
IN the history OF the stock exchange can

as that Of today. The industrlals still con-
tlnued to lead the market dn volume on

there was a possibility for mischief In the

and drove prices down a sharp fraction at
the opening: The market was SO utterly
sluggish and apathetic that there was no
possibility OF retrieving this early decliae

quieting feature of the weakness OF secur-
tiles In foreign markets Is the vagueness
of the explanations. All the favorable fact:
