The Financier's Review.

New York. July S.--The Financier says:
The associated banks of New York il
their statement for the week ending
July is to be accepted as correct, have
less surplus cash on hand than at any
time with the exception of September.
1888 since the 1893 panic But the current
exhibit is SO complicated by incidents due
to July disbursements and also by the
system of averages employed in making
IT, that its totals do not possess the sig
nifcance that otherwise might attach to
them. The loss of about $4,000. 900 in cash
for instance is very much more than
known operations called for and the eX-
panson of nearly 100000 in loans must
reflect previous weeks business The de-
mands for accommodation within the past
two days certainly did not necessitate
this violent rise. AS the statement stands
il plainly indicates that every dollar of
the loans has been taken from the banks
in cash and withdrawal of deposits has
been a similar operation. Manifestly, this
is an impossible contingency.
A more detailed explanation shows that
of the loss in cash the National City and
the Chase National banks are responsible
for the entire reduction, the National
Citys loss having been about $500 600
and its increase in loans more than S.

WIND UP THEIR BUSINESS.
Canal Commission Is Preparing to
Start For the Isthmus.

Washington, July S.-The Nicara-
guam canal commission has finished its
present business in washington and the
members have scattered to wind up
their personal and professional bust
ness before starting for the field. 1t
has been settled that the field force
taken from this country will number
about seventy -five, all told, in addi-
ton to whatever local help may be
picked up on the isthmus.
The first party to leave this country
will consist of Admiral Walker, Colonel
constituting the Panama committee,
commission. who will leave here in
about thirty days for Paris. There
they will examine the records of the
Panama company and secure whatever
data is obtainable in connection with
that part of the work. 1t is possible
they may visit Kiel before returning.
Meantime the remainder of the COM
mission in this country will do what
ever is possible by correspondence with
the several Central American govern
ments who may be interested in the
route to he finally selected.
The start Of the entire commission
for the isthmus Will be made probably
in November. When the commission
takes the field it will divide in three
sections. one to study the Panama
route. one to further investigate the
NiCaraguan route. and the other to go
over the Darien line. Afterwards the
San Bias and several minor routes will
be studied, so as to leave no possible
question open when the survey is made.

GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
Wheat Hangs Back In Anticipation
of MONDAYS Crop Report.

Chicago. July S.-Wheat opened IN
changed to 1sc higher at 7S9sd!5Sic for
September. Traders were inclined TO
avoid new commitals to either side IN
view of the government crop report due
next Monday. Reports from North Da-
kota TO the effect that scourge of grass
hoppers was feared stimulated some buy
ing but the bulls appeared weak-kneed
and after getting September up TO lils
there was grand rush to secure profits.
Selling orders poured in from the north
west whence buying orders should natur-
ally have originated had there been any
substantiation of the fears of "hoooers.
The market was greatly congested and

Grazing On Uintah Reservation.

The present delegation is quite vigorous
in its presentation, but at this writing, Ii
seems improbable that it will be able to
secure any change in the ruling. 1t is
claimed that more than half a million
sheep are deprived of legitimate pastur-
age by the Uintah order. A similar order
is in effect at number of other western
reservations.
AS an evidence of the deep interest
taken in next years national campaign,
ii can be stated that every one of the six
delegates who represented the District of
Columbia in the last Democratic national
convention is an avowed candidate for
reelection next year. They all stand on
the Chicago platform and are declared
supporters of Bryan for the nomination.
One of the brightest of the last dele
cation, Mr.. Robert +. Mattingly, has al
ready circuiariZed the city in support of
his canvass for delegates. While the others
have not gone TO this extreme, they are
all receptive candidates, and several of
them are quite aggressive.
This district will choose its delegates
some time in February next, and they will
presumably be the first selected TO next
years convention, 1t goes without saying
that the delegation will be solid for
Bryan, free silver and the Chicago plat
form, as it was in 1896.

Chicago. July S.-There were not enough

There were scattering prices at 4.60d4 %

SUICIDE OF LIEUT.. PAGUE.
Officer Who Tried to Kill Colonel
Crofton at Fort Sheridan.

Chicago. July S.-Samuel S. Pague,
who while stationed at Fort Sheridan
as lieutenant of company F. Fifteenth
United States infantry, fired three shots
at Colonel Crofton, and who was dis
missed from the army on the finding of
a courtmartial, died in the office of a
Clark street lodging house under cir
cumstanceS which point to suicide.
The former officer spent the night in
a room at the house and early today
entered the office and threw himself
YEARLY into a chair. A half hour later
the clerk found his dead body still seat
ed in the chair and an empty choral
bottle in his pocket He left no letters
which indicated that he had intended TO
commit suicide.
The courtmartial of Lieutenant Pague
attracted wide attention. Pague was
jealous of Colonel Crofton, alleging that
the latter's attentions TO Mrs. Pague
were too pronounced. On Oct. 80. 1895,
Pague, heated with wine, attempted to
kill the colonel. Two bullets went
through the latter's overcoat, the third
striking the ground. Mrs. Pague rushed
to her husband and seized his arm.
