Of Germany has pursued the same course.
The Industrial activity in Germany con-
tinued undated, the conditfons in the iron
and steel trade being Similar to those in
this country. But there speculation in
securities OF iron and steel companies IS
on a large scale, while here, the secur-
tiles Of these companies have fallen into
almost complete neglect, and sag away in
spite Of strength IN the general market.
But the rate of capitalization in Germany
is low enough to allow dividends of Is per
cent last year, and this on steel shares,
while the plant of holders is that they
were not increased to % per cent this year.
The industrials generally have been in dis
favor in the New York market during the
week and the movement In railroad stocks
has separated itself from the industrials.
Profit-taking was Induced to some extent
by the stiffening Of the money rate, but
Liquidation was not on a large scale and
the standard railroad stocks ended near
the highest.
There has been an enlarged business in
bonds and an advancing tendency in
prices.
Total sales of stocks today amounted to
N'l57 shares, including: American Sugar,
l5.lOO; Atchison, 5000; do preferred, 7S.OOO;

Now York HANK atnfemnnt

New York. July 1.-The Ayeekly bank
statement shows the following changes:
Surplus reserve, decrease 81, 24S, $50; loans
increase $S,075,600; specie. decrease, $11,537,-
300; legal tenders. decrease $3.50. 200; depos-
its, decrease $3,S7.OOO; circulation. de-
crease 100000 The banks now hold $14,-
24,550 in excess Of the requirements.
Philadelphia, July 1.-The Financier
says: THE statement Of the associated
banks for the week ending July shows
some of the heaviest changes in months,
due not so much to unfavorable influences
as to the operations of the half-yearly
period. The three factors which have
served ii reduce the cash reserves by
nearly elevtn and half millions are the
gold exports, treasury debts and the mid
summer dividend period. Under present
conditions 1t may safely be said that no
more gold will go to Europe unless an
exceedingly fancy rate Is paid for It, AS
for the treasury, It is known that for
some time past banks have been losing
steadily to the government. owing to the
transfers Of deposits. and the growing ex-
cess Of customs payments ovtr disburse-
ments. This Is a very Satisfactory ca
ture Of the ituation, showing, as it does,
a right to period of normal business, but
for the time being 1t Is taking more or
less money out of circulation. Beginning
with July, however, the treasury will
have heavy payments in the way Of bond
interest and expenses TO meet, and this
will allow tn banks to recoup some Of
their pervious Losses. In the same man
ner the institutions will begin to show
the effect of the enormous July disburse-
ments. and while the crop season is not
far distant, It is to be expected that the
money movement will continue this way
for time. An unusual incident has been
the shipping of gold from New York to
the interior during the past few days.
Canada has also been draining gold. That
the banks, In the face of the continued
drain upon their resources, are able TO
maintain the loans at the highest figurt
ever known and still report fourteen mill
ions excess reserve. is regarded as album
dant proof OF their strength. How the
statement will affect the rates Is not
known, but since any material advance
is certain TO result in rush Of idle capt.
Ia! 10 this center. a stringency IN the local
market is regarded as highly improba BILE
The current statement shows that the
larger banks. which have beet carrying
the greater proportion or surplus reserves.
have lost heaviest, 80 that the reduction
does not mean that tht banks a. a rule
are az the limit OF their ioaEing power"

Grandson OF Lincoln's Attorney
General,
Mrs. ]. B. Stoutemeyer of North Mar
ket. gives the Eagle the following verse
written and sent to her about a year
ago by Edward Bates. a grandson of
United States Attorney General Bates OF
Lincoln's cabinet:
MANILA.
It was our Commodore put south
Across the tropic calm;
1t was an Admiral came back,
Crowned with the island palm.
Ger thrice three thousand miles Of foam
An arm was stretched to smite.
And the price of blood in darkness shed
Is paid in open fight.
The price is paid. the ghosts are laid
And the broken whisper runs;
The ghosts of the murdered men Of the
Maine
In the roar Of the shotted guns.
The cable flashes flicker, and fail at Sing
apore-
But the ships remained. whose guns are
trained
To speak for the Commodore.
Into the Bay OF the Islands,
And the headland batteries slept,
As through the darkened waters
The sable squadron swept;
Into the Bay Of the Islands,
And the night was dim on the sea.
And the Spaniard woke as the morning
broke
On the battle-line Of the free.
The batrle-line Of the free brothers!
And the people blackened strand:
And low on the starboard quarter.
The foe led out from the land;
From shore and castled islet
The flashing cannons roar:
And no signals flew. but the captains
knew
To speak for the Commodore.
Oh. ship for ship they fought Us,
But overmatched IN the aim,
And one by one. we riddled
The cruisers as they came:
One by one 10 the bottom.
The hulks Of steel go down;
And ours Is the bay OF the Islands:
And ours the tropic town.
The forts were odds against Us,
But the Commodore steamed in;
The coal was low in the bunkers,
And the captains fought TO win:
And some viii cali it folly,
And the Jealous kings will blame,
But 10. in the world wide murmur,
A prelude 10 their fame.
For they carried the Yankee banner
Strung TO each fighting mast.
And they smote with new-world vigor,
The knees OF the rotten past:
And the new-world law Is Justice,
And our flag floats to the breeze.
And the word Of the Aagio-Saxon.
Is law on the tropic seas.
Then here's 10 the living heroes
VIII raised our flag IN the BAY.
And here's 10 the murdered spirits all.
And rsle.r fellows dead in the fray,
And here's 20 our cousins over the sea
For standing guard st the door.
And here's TO the ships and the cannon
lips
That spoke for the Commodore.

The London Glee Singers gave
great and universal satisfaction. The
program was divided into four parts
as follows: (l "Old England = (2)
"Romantic England" (3l by the
Seashore." (4) "On the Village
Green" In each part dresses and
costumes were worn to correspond.
This made the entertainment not only
very realistic, but instructive and en-
joyable. These costumes were a
splendid setting to the songs. The
singers were exceptionally good, and
harmonized most beautifully in the
duet and quartet parts. There were
humorous duets, in which the singers
showed that they were fine actors rs
we'll as singers. The program was
long, and we have given but a mere
outline of it. The company is under
the direction of Mr.. Frank Pemberton,
