Bank .rnpertinence.

The Philadelphia Record tells of an
old Pennsylvania farmer who recently
came into possession Of a check for
5000. Il caused him q great deal of anx-
iety, and for q long time he could not
muster up the courage to have it cashed.
Finally, while on trip to town, he
summoned up nerve enough and, stroll
ing into the bank, presented the check.
The teller glanced at it hastily, and
then, after the fashion Of his kind,
brusquely asked, 'What denomina-
tion?'
Lutheran, gol durn it'll But what's
tibet got tew do with it?'' as brusquely
replied the old farmer, to the great as.
constituent of the bank official.
It required several minutes explana.
tion before the teller could get the OLD
MAJ to understand his question, and
then the latter took his money and de-
parted, with sundry growls derogatorJ
to banks in general.

Eaual to the Occa.ion.

In 1910 great convention was held
in Baltimore by the young men Of what
was then known as the Wing party for
the purpose Of ratifying the nomination
Of General William Henry Harrison
for the presidency. There was no hall
in the city large enough to hold the
crowd Of delegates who attended. The
convention accordingly met on the Can.
ton race track, and when the great
Wing orator Of this state, who was
chairman of the Young Mems national
committee, arose to call the meeting to
order he was SO impressed by the vast.
ness Of the assemblage before him that
instead Of the usual formula he ex-
claimed, "The nation will please come
to order!''- Baltimore Sun.

was panicky feeling at the opening here
to-day on the news of General Buffers re-
pulse. Rand mines opened down points
and fell point further on the slump. The
excitement was almost confined to African
shares, commitments in Americans and
elsewhere being small. After hours hope
was revived and a general rally took place,
accompanied by a rumor that General
Butler had recovered his guns and that
General Clery had crossed the river. There
was no confirmation of these rumors. Con-
soils were l00adl01A Americans opened
to points under parity. They rallied
to points, closing firm. The scramble to
sell lasted only half an hour Paris was
fairly firm Spanish fours were 65l2, tin
tos, 441s; Anacondas, 75s: Uahs, 5; Bos-
tons, q. There were two small failures
here making ten due to recent declines In

Henry Clews's Views.
Wall Street Financial Statement.


The stock market has witnessed some Sc
we're declines during the past week and at
the moment the outlook for buoyant prices
is very doubtful, the entire market being
controlled by monetary conditions. Trade
activity is worldwide; and high rates pre-
vail In all the leading money markets. The
great banks of Europe. those in London.
Paris and Berlin, are all protecting their
gold reserves by abnormally high rates of
discount; indicating an unusual strain.
British reverses in the Transvaal, and the
cutting off of that source of gold supply,
have materially added to the tension in
London; md We are now on the verge of
shipping gold to that point instead of i'm
porting as is usual at this season. This
exposure TO a foreign demand on our gold
supply comes At time when our own re-
sources are fuhy taxed Activity in the
tail trades is absorbing an enormous
amount of currency, which in spite of re-
cent increase is insufficient for present re-
quirements. Many of the trusts are also
larger borrowers than was expected at
their inception; both mercantile and manu-
featuring interests require more accom-
modation than usual; while funds sent out
for crop purposes are returning much slow
ly than usual. No undue expansion of cred
its can be observed; and this great demand
for money is simply the result of phenom-
YORK banks are taking care of regular GUS
toners at reasonable rates, and per cent
is the common rate to gOo0 mercantile bor-
rowers; but the speculator must pay high
and in many cases prohibitive rates espe-
cially when the new industrials are offered
as collateral.
The prospects for easier rates in the fu-
ture are not promising. Bank reserves are
low. and building them up under present
conditions will be slow work, except
through the unwelcome process of retrench-
ment. Preparations for January disuurse-
mentS amounting to about $3.50 900 900 will
cause temporary arrangement; but as con-
siderable of this sum will be reinvested il
will afford some relief.
The money centers all over the world are
disturbed at the present time. The Bank of
Englands rate of discount is now 6 per
cent. which is the highest for over ten
years, and the rate in Berlin is per cent
The management of the Bank of France is
the most despOtic of the worlds great
financial institutions and they hold on to
their gold with an iron grasp, hence it's
rate seldom changes. The fact that they
have now been compelled to advance it
from per cent. to 31a per cent. (being the
first time In over year and only three
times within ten year, is an evidence of the
gravity of the situation. This institution
glded through the Barring panic period
without making a change i'm it's rate not
withstanding that the shock was seriously
felt all over the world thus showing what
! a stalwart concern the Bank of France
really is. the present change I'm fits rate
therefore, is significant
