WASHINGTON, Feb. ga number
Of distinguished men, particularly those
interested in war history, met at Fred
erisksburg Wednesday to effect a per
manent organization of the Battlefield
Park association which bears the
name Of that city. Gen. Horatio c.
King. Of New York, presided. At 8
o'clock a banquet was served, after
which the visitors went over the
ground as far as possible, which it is
their desire to save as a war memorial
1t is doubtful if there is another spot
on this continent which, within so
small a space, has seen the amount Of
war that has been Waged about the

drive, only twenty miles in length.
would take in the battlefields Of Fred
ericksburg, Charlottesville, Salem
Church, Todds Tavern, the Wilderness
and Spottsylvania Court House. This
is the great argument for making this
the site of a battlefield park. Nobody
expects that all the scenes of martial
strife on this continent can he made
parks, but in the evident desire of the
American people to save a few of the
most important, it is certainly an ar
gument in favor of a particular Ioca-
ton when within a few miles of it are
clustered the scenes of six great en-
gagements.
Another argument for fredericksburg
in the competition for hOnors is the fact
that it is near Washington, and hence
within reach of the travelling public
who make use of such exhibits. A
hundred people from the North would
go to Fredericksburg to one who would
get to Chickamauga. and it is presum-
ablyNortheIn people rather than South
ern who will be most interested in re-
viewing the military operations of the
Civil war. Land is cheap in that part of
Virginia. The land at Chickamaugua
near the thriving city of Chattanooga,
cost $Z50000; while the 6,529 acres which
the Fredericksburg projectors want
could be bought for cOnsiderab bly, less
than 100000.
The sundry civil appropriation bill,
which has just been reported to con-
gress, reveals the extent to which this
government has gone into Battlefield

park $4,000 is recommended for the
year ending June &c. 1889, which is $15,-

For Gettysburg $50, 900 is recommended

amount of the estimate. That Antietam
gets nothing is PROBABLY due to the
fact that an uneXpended balance of
s., 700 remains from the last appropTia-
ticn. Since 1890 when the first An
tietam appropriation was made, $75, 321
has been expended there and the work
is now practically at a standstill The
Gettysburg commissioners state to the
committee that it would cost $500, 500
to complete the work mapped out for
that field, and they desire to go on as
fast as congress will supply the sinews.
Over $2000,00O worth of monuments

Showing Made by the New York
Banks for the Week Not ns Dis
appointing as Had Been Antici-
pated-Ha1f of the Total Cash
Reserve Is I'm Gold.

NEW YORK, Feb. 26.-The Financier
says: The statement of the associate
banks of New York city, for the week
endlng Feb. 70, is not as Disappointing
in its showing as had been anticipated.
The events Of the week made it plain
that heavy decreases were inevitable.
and yet, as result of all the changes.
the banks have reduced their surplus
cash only S2,129,125, an amount hardly
as large as current engagements of gold
from Europe.
The actual loss in specie and legal
tenders was 81, AS, 400. but this was par
TALLY offset by an increase of So. S52. 100
In specie, making the net loss for the
week $o,O6o, 200. The specie apparently
went into half dozen larger banks.
1t is interesting to note that of the
entire cash reserve of the New York
banks at least 90 per cent is gold in the
form of specie.
The loss in cash was brought about
by the heavy shipments to the interior
and payments into the treasury. but
the full extent of the former is not
known in the statement.
While the larger part of the money
now being withdrawn from New York
IS doubtless in response to increased
demands due to better trade condi-
lions, some of it reflects the unsettled
state of mind prevailing with regard
to the future. But the New York
banks generally lose a portion of their
excess balances at this season of the
year. In 1897, between the latter part
of February and the end of March, the
excess reserve fell off 81, 000, 0OO The
loss during February this year has been
$12,750,0O0 The reserve, however is
now about one-half what it was twelve
months ago, so that the loss affects the
market rather more acutely.
Still the constituencies of the situation
and our strong position as regards in
terna#ional balances are we'll shown in
the fact that even the slight increase
in rates last week has started gold i'm
ports. A continued firm market will
only emphasize this factor For the
moment the Decentralization of the stock
market, the heavy liquidation and
realizations have contracted the loan
item. There is nothing, however, in
dicatlng that money is going to be ex-
cessively dear. even should complica-
lions arise. a study of the past weeks
operations illustrates perfectly the di-
rection in which relief can be looked
for. In other words, our money loaned
abroad can be made instantly avail
able.

departure from the statute, except for

her present stipend is not sufficient to
