What the Financier Says

New York November 4.-The Financier
says: For the first time since the panic of
1893 the clearing house banks of New York
city report a deficit in reserves, the cash
on hand falling below the required limit by
$35S $50. The deficit is due to the heavy
Withdrawals In cash, #contractions in loans,
deposits having been insufficient to lower
requirements to the proper figure. The
statement is further complicated by the
addition of a new bank, the Hide and
Leather National, to the clearing house. In
order to get at the actual news for proper
comparison it is necessary to offset the
totals of this institution. This done, 1t APP
pears that the losses of regular members
have been 81 619 300 in loans, 81 1905 900 in de-
posts, and S. 2o9 200 in cash, which puts
new meaning on the exhibit as whole. A
great deal of surprise was expressed when
the statement appeared that 1oaps had
fallen off less than a quarter of million,
published in the totals in explanation.
In explanation the expanding business on
the stock exchange was cited. Specula-
ton has been much more active of late,
and little if any contraction in loans was
looked for 1t seems, however, that loans
really have been reduced over two and one
half millions, which intmates what other
wise must be regarded as a discrepancy.
The known operations of the week, SO far
as cash changes are concerned, do not
differ much from the bank reports. There
was loss of over two millions to the in
terror and nearly as much to the treasury
The November dividend period was respon-
sible for some unsettlng of business. The
future of the market hinges now on the
continuance of the interior demand. At
this time last year money had begun to re-
turn to New York, but up to the present
the outgo much exceeds receipts. 1t Is
worthy of note that domestic exchange at
leading centers is changing slowly in favor
of New York, funds in this city being quot
ed at par in Chicago for the first time since
last spring. But this cannot be taken 10
signify that money is about to come east
for money rates in Chicago show signs of
advancing. The weak point in the present
situation is the continued absorption of
funds from the bank into the treasury, an
operation that takes funds out of the mar
ket quite as effectually as an export Of
specie to Europe"

New York. November 4.-The market for
cotton opened steady in tone at decline of

news but the cables to reassure them,
shorts took advantage of the reaction to
cover extensive commitments in the spring
and summer months. Room bulls did not
lose faith in their position and bought the
entire list. Investors were soon over their
fright and sent in a steady stream of or

returned to the close of last night, with
sentiment in the pit very bullish. The regu-
lar news tended towards light receipts,
heavier spot markets, freezing weather
over most of the belt, with frost in New
Orleans.
Europe was a heavy seller here on the
opening but turned about when 1T became
evident that the crowd was not materially
influenced by Liverpoois weakness. The
South was a large buyer throughout the
session. The market for futures closed
very easy with prices net to points low

The Williams brothers, Ben and

With their departure Ari- zona suffers the loss of two good men, whose places it will be difficult indeed for Messrs. Phelps, Dodge X Co. to fill, While the business management of the Copper Queen camp may con tinue uninterrupted under another management. it is doubtful if the sue cessor to the Williams will succeed in supplanting them in the hearts of the people. By their deeds they are known, having ever been actuated by the kindliest impulses which point them out true christian gentlemen, friends to the oppressed and needy, progressive, upright and honorable. The Williams assumed management of the Copper Queen property in 1880, and on the 18th of August of that year produced the first bar of copper bull lion from the then crude 3O-ton smell ter, marking the commencement of Arizona's copper era, since which time the industry has steadily gained in volume and the Queen plant has kept abreast of progress until now the annual output from this one mine st Bisbee is reckoned at 5000, 600 pounds of copper. A beautiful and modern city of about coco souls stands as a monument to the benehCence of the gentlemen who are about to take their departure from among those who love them for what they are; churches, schools and beneficiary organizations received sustenance and weie main tained through the generosity of "Benr and Don Lewis" without re- gard to creed and today Bisbee is the ideal mining camp of the Pacific coast Arizona in general will join with those of Bisbee in expression of regret, and hope for the Messrs. Wil- Hams continued prosperity in any un- dertaking they may elect to engage.

 Judge. His friends know, as well as he. when his birthday is to arrive, and on that day he is always the recipient of friendly calls, and remembrances of various kinds from friends near and far. In earlier days these were joyous occasions, but this last must have been of a grayer nature. It was prob ably the last Halloween the Judge will ever see and we know that, one by one, as his friends shook his hand their hearts were filed with grief at the

The press dispatches inform us that l,5CO Navajo Indians are on the war parth, as a result of a battle between a shcriif's posse and band of Indians last Saturday evening, when W. H.. Montgomery of Phoenix met his death and Buwow Ettin, wealthy and in- fluential Navajo, met his fate at the hands of Rough Rider Hogan. AT though the Indians are very much in- cenSed, il is not believed.the uprising will assume dangerous or more gen. eral proportions than now reported, those who understand the NayajoS claiming they are peaceably-inclined, and will cOntine their depredations to sheriff $ posses or armed numbers of whites who may be unfortunate enough to be found in the trail of the warriors who are frenzied with grief over the death of Buwow Ettin. It is believed many Indians were wounded, who made their escape to the reServa- tion. The causes which led to this much to be regretted affair are not stated, but it is presumed the Indians resisted the posse, failing to recognize them as officials.
