Weekly Rauk Statement.
Review of Finances.

New York. May 20-The Financier says;
The heavy liquidation which marked
week, particularly at the opening, is large
ly responsible for the reduction OF SLz45,-
800 shown in the loan item of the current
statement Of the New York clearing mouse
banks. The reserve liability. owing TO the
slight change in deposits, remained at
about the same figure reported for the
previous week, so that the increase OF
$l,eS4.5o In cash for the most part Went
to swell the reserve, the surplus rising 10
S3i. 63l SO, the highest point reached since
the middle of last February. In fact, the
various items correspond closely TO tne
statement made at that time.
Since the opening OF March the loans
of the banks have been reduced Slt, oVo,VOv,
deposits have fallen off sl2,5Oo 900 and 6
cash has increased no less than lI,0OOooo
This will serve to show the extent OF the
liquidation that has taken place in little
over sixty days. How much further II
will be continued no one can predlct, .Dut
the outlook seems to assure an indefinite
period of easy money.
The present accumulation of funds in
the clearing house institutions Is the
largest ever recorded OF course, the re-
cent rapid increase has been due to the
settlement of the Spanish indemnity, IN
volVing a transfer of S20OJ0.OOO, but aside
from that the interior banks have been
sending money to this center and the rise
in domestic exchange does not indicate
that the movement is over by any means
The piling up of money here and the con-
feeling sterling exchange, but II Is thought
quotations will be kept well below the
exporting point
The peculiarly entrenched position of the
treasury to regulate interest rates is not
to be overlooked in this particular. AS
far as significance can be attached TO the
current statement the final payment or
the Spanish fund and the trend of money
from the interior are the only factors to
be considered. The totals are about as
expected, and there is nothing to warrant
expectations of heavy changes for some
weeks 10 come

.RAVAGEs OF A HURRICANE

the scene of the recent disaster by hur-

The sights that met the eyes of the
relief expedition along the desolated
coast were hOrrifying beyond descrip-
ton. In one place, where a picturesque
fishing village with a population of 800
had stood, neither house nor tree nor
living thing was left. The site of the
little settlement looked like new plowed
land. and the survivors among the fish
ing folk had fled for safety to an in
land town twelve miles distant.
There and further along the coast
mangled bodies of men and domestic
animals were found. Several were Sc

Another petition in bankruptcy has
been filed in the United States court as
a result of the Groesbeck failure. Hugh

to $1s.250.S7. and that his property
amounts to $S0y, all of which he claims
is exempt under the law.
The largest part Of Mr.. Eldredge's
Indebtedness comes through his en-
dorsement of notes for William Groes-
beck and his signature on appeal bonds.
The largest amounts in the list, all Of
which are unsecured, are:
Andrew C.. Brixen, endorsement of
note for William Groesbeck, judgment

Physician Who Was Sent Up For
Eight Years.
NEW EVIDENCE FOUND
ADMISSIONS MADE BY THE
PRINCIPAL WITNESS.
Said he Did Not Believe Mccoy Had
Anything to Do, With the Criminal
Operation-George Cory of Paro-
wan Also Pardoned-Ed Dalton's
Peculiar Case.

DR.. William Mccoy was pardoned
yesterday by the state board of par
dons. DR.. McCoys case created a
great deal of interest in the city at the
time of the trial, nearly three years
ago. He was found guilty of perform
ing q criminal operation upon a Miss
Bennett of Provo in February, 1885, and
in November &C that year was sem
fenced to eight years imprisonment in
the penitentiary.
Miss Bonnet was Provo woman,
and came mere from that place for the
purpose of having an operation per-
formed. The evidence that DR.. Mccoy
was convicted on was largely that of
a man named Jesse Collins, and at the
sitting of the board of pardons yester-
day, affidavitS were presented showing
that Collins. before the trial, had stated
his belief that Mccoy had had nothing
to do with the case. On the trial he
swore against Mccoy.
Petitions signed by several hundred
residents of Piute county, where DR..
Mccoy lived prior to his removal TO
this city, were also presented, and, on
the showing made, the board ordered
his release. w. r. Hutchinson was DR..
McCoy's attorney.
GEORGE CORY PARDONED.
The only other pardon granted was
to George Cory, convicted of burglary
at Parowan, Iron county, and sentenced
by Judge Higgins on Sept. 20, 1898, to
one years imprisonment. A letter from
Judge Higgins, expressing his belief
that Cory had not intended to commit
a criminal act, was presented, and
initiated largely in Corry's favor.
ED DALTON'S CASE.
A somewhat peculiar case was that
of Wallace Mcneil, alias Ed Dalton.
Mcneil was convicted of robbery at
Provo in 1889 and sent to the peniten-
tiary for seven years. While he was
in the penitentiary he was taken out
and ried at Ogden on two charges of
robbery and assault with deadly
weapon. On the second charge he re-
ceived two years sentence, and on
the first an eight years sentence. The
question before the board was whether
the sentences did not run concurrently,
and the board decided that Mcneil
remedy lay by habeas corpus proceed
ings, so ms application for pardon was
withdrawn.

Land Grant Decisions.

The most important session of the United States Court of Private Land Claims, directly affecting Arizona was held last Monday Nov. 27, says the Tucson Star, when the court handed down its decisions in five land grant cases. the land claimed being situate in Pima, Santa Cruz and CochiSe counties. The amount of land claimed Tn the aggregate was 6O9,0O0 acres; area allowed by the court 57,OO3 acres; total amount saved to settlers and the government 552, GOO acres. Most of the land rejected is most desirable for agricultural purposes, while other areas include some of the richest min eral fields in Arizona, in which are To- cated mines upon which hundreds of thousands of dollars have been eX- pended, the. titles to which were clouded by these land claimants, all of which suggests the far reaching inn portance of the laudable decisions of the Court of Private Land Claims.
 Following are the decisions handed down: San Ignacio del Babocomari claim, claimant Robert Perrin, for 12e, ,0O0 acres, allowed for 34 ,000 acres; Agua Prieta claim for 43,000 acres, claimant Santiago Amsa, administra- tor Colin Cameron rejected; San Pedro claim, for 37 ,O0O acres, claimant the Reloj Cattle Co.,, rejected; Buena- vista claim, for 18,0C0 acres, Maisch X Driscoll claimants, confirmed for that part of four Mexican square leagues that may be in the United States to ] be determined by survey, approxi-
