FINANCE IN NEN YORK
CONDITIONS ARE STATIONARY NOW
AND NO IMMEDIATE ADVANCE
IN SIGHT
BANK CIRCULATION GOOD
There Is II Great Rush of Specie
Into New York and
Loans AIe De-
creasinE.

NEW YORK, July 29.-The Financier
says:
THE statement OF the New York clear
ing house banks for the week ending July
q is more In accordance with known op-
erations than was the previous exhibit,
although the gains in cash are in excess
Of preliminary estimates. The gain in
specte and legals aggregate 1851, 900, made
up for the most part of specie. The de-
post increase was S. 667, 7Q0 and as this
called for nearly s15OO,OOO Of additional
reserve, the surplus rose only So $50 07J.
standing at $27, 535, 85, as against SO I'll JOS
for the same week last year, and nearly
81, enc two years ago. The decrease in
loans, which have been a marked feature
for the past six weeks, has been check
ed, and for the six days past ended this
item shows an expansion of 1921 800.
Whatever significance this carried IS di-
minished through the fact that the gain
can be traced to two large banks, and
represents special transactions rather
than general revival in demand.
THE circulation Of the banks was in
creased over 81, 100000 last week, and tho
tc tai is in excess of $25. 900, 600. This tends
to show that the banks are expecting
use for this money later on and while
the immediate market cannot be said
to present tangible evidence Of a ti$st-
ening IN rates, It Is nevertheless true that
the coming month and the opening Of Sep
TENDER may witness diminution Of fresh
reserves, because of interior demand. Just
now the receipts Of money from the in
terror are abnormally heavy and consign-
ments from Australia and Alaska are
adding to the supply. No gold went to
Europe during the past week, but inter
national conditions are such that the
movement is apt to be inaugurated at any
time. The best judges Of money condi-
tons are at sea regarding the future, and
arguments equally plausible and entitled
to recognition.
"If past years furnish any precedent,
especially remembering that a preslden.
tial campaign is at hand, the weight OF
opinion favors the theory Of a moderate
advance later In the season, although, to
be candid, conditions just now appear to
favor stationary rates, with a continued
ample supply Of funds"

their plans he said as he boarded the
train. But there was no evidence of ac-
tivity around the baggage car, which
would naturally carry the corpse.
The train finally moved away and the
pastor failed to find his friend. They
must have missed the train, he remark
ed, as he hastened away to postpone
another engagement so as to be at the
depot on the arrival of the next train.
1t was rather embarrassing for the under
taker, but he finally managed to substi-
tute enough carriages for those which
were obliged to leave. When the next
train came there was a repetition of the
same experiences. There must be some
mistake, said the undertaken, who was
beginning to be suspicious. Possibly 1
have come the wrong day. 1 will tele-
phone the office and see what memo
randum I made. The reply from the
office confirmed the date and he was still
more puzzled. I will telegraph my
friend and find out said the clergyman.
The undertaken thought it best to dismiss
the carriages, but he arranged with the
drivers to be ready at the office for
call by telephone Late in the evening
the telegram of inquiry was returned
to the clergyman, and then the cold truth
began to dawn on the undertaken The
next day the clergyman went to the
newspaper office to inquire about the obit-
udIy HOIICG surrey there HluSl DG SOlIG
one of the name in town, for the paper
was reliable one. Oh that item has
caused us a lot of trouble said the edit
or. There was no such person in town,
and some worthless fellow came in here
too late for US to verify it, and we printed
his item as he gave it. We are deter
mined never to be caught that way
again. ] can not imagine what the fell
low did it for. He could not get any
money by the transaction and apparently
there were no grudges for him to pay
off. The clergyman babe the editor d
simple goodbye, but he went over to
the undertaken There was some myster-
fous conference with the police but it
was long time before the truth leaked
out. Then it gave the pastor a lot of
trouble. He insisted on paying the 800
to the undertaken but the money was
refused. Soon after the minister was re-
joiced to receive a call from another
church, for his relations with the people
were rather strained where he was. The
fellow was not college, man at all, and
the police are still looking for him.
II suppose that the fellow knew all
along that the treasurer of the cemetery
association was cashier of the bank
and it was the mOney-lender that he was
after from the first" said the matter
of fact man. That question broke up the
gathering, but all agreed that this was
the sharpest case of swindling that they
had ever heard of-especially in college
annals.

WORLDS LARGEST WATCH
VIII BE One of the Exhibits at the
ST. Louis Exposition.


The greatest watch in the world is be-
ing built. 1t will have spacious galleries
in it, in which people can walk around,
and yet will be a perfect watch in every
respect.
1t will be a great feature of the St.
Louis fair of 1903 The American watch
makers are taking great interest in it,
and it IS intended to show the leading po-
tons.
It will lie on its back will have a pol
ished metal case, just like the ordinary
watch, and will be so large and roomv
around in it, among the moving wheels
1t will be nearly seventy-fve feet in diam
eter and more than forty feet high, with
neat little stairways running all about in
it, and all the wheels properly protected,
SO that no one can be hurt or have his
clothes soied.
The balance wheel will weigh ton, and
what is called the ''hairspring' in a
watch will be as thick as a mans wrist.
1t will take about two minutes for the
balance wheel to swing around and back
again. 1t will be pivoted on two enor-
nous agate blocks-subsritutes for dia-
monds-and viii be made of brass One
of the greatest difficulties will be in get
ting balance spring of the size and
Keep its elasticity.
The handspring, of course, will be an
enormous affair, something over three
hundred feet in length and made of ten
bound together, as 1t would be impossi,
bic to roll so large a piece either in
thickness or length. The protector Of
the enterprise claims, of course, that the
scheme has an educational side.
Those who visit the watch will be
given Instructions he says, with prac-
ucal illustrations, on the care of a watch
Guides will point out and name every
part, with its. use and it's proportionate
movement. The watch will be wound by
steam regularly at certain hour during
the daV."

MODERN CHINESE SOLOMON.
His Plan to Pick a Woman's Hus-
band Among Three Claimants.

O8n0 Among Three Claimants.
Tho following remarkable incident &C.
Cured recently, according to the New
York Herald, in the province of Honan,
in China: Three men appeared before a
Judge there, and each laid claim to the
same woman as his wife. Not one of
them would retire in favor Of the other
two, but each insisted that justice should
be done him. Finally the judge, renlem-
bering, doubtless, how King Solomon had
acted in a somewhat similar emergency,
exclaimed well, if you three men can
not come to some agreement, nothing
remains for me but to order that the
woman shall be killed, as there Is no
other way in which the matter can be
satisfactorily settled" He then called
for large cup Of wine and, when it was
brought, he poured into it some dark
powder and compelled the woman to
drink 1T. Excited as she was, the woman
speedily began to feel the effect of the
strong liquor. She stammered when she
tried to speak, and her flushed cheeks
were an indication to the observers that
the poison was working and that her end
was near at hand.
This was the climax for which the
judge had waited. When he saw that
the woman was apparently dying he
called one of the three men who claimed
her as his wife and babe him remove
her from the court ROOM This man,
however, showed no inclination to do So
and the judge thereupon insisted that he
renounce all rights to her. This he will
ingly did, and so did the second man.
Only one claimant was not left, and he
agreed to remove the woman and to care
for her until she died. Satisfied that he
was her real husband, the judge called
him and said: you will not be sorry
for acting in this manner. Have TO fear
fr0,. fa Gin ba ir IN 40
Of death. The liquor which she has
drunk was ordinary wine, and the powder
which poured into it was nothing but
brown sugar"

NEW YORK, July 28.-There was al
most nothing in the days stock market
to interest any one outside of the small
circle of professional operators in stocks,
who conducted all the business. Prices
advanced in the first hour and declined
after the appearance of the bank state
ment, Unexpectedly strong. Small net
losses are the rule as a consequence.
The feature was a perpendicular drop
of three points in Sugar, after an opening
advance of asc. The reason assigned was
a rumor of a strike in one of the COM
pany's refneries. The rumor was denied
without materially strengthening the
stock. Selling orders to stop losses on
cline, and the raid on the stock was
doubtless made with the purpose of dis
lodging these orders. The bears were
content to take their profits, and the
stock quieted down. Brooklyn Transit
was bid up on rumors of a good annual
report, and Burlington was bought on a
belief that the June report would show
net earnings that would compare favor
ably with those of other roads.
The selling after the bank statement
seemed to be realizing, and was based
upon the superstition that shorts would
cover on the good bank statement. But
there did not seem to be any shorts, and
the market sagged off to the low po Mt
of the morning. The closing was heavy.
AS the additional deposits in the banks
were largely cash, the surplus reserves
benefited to the substantial extent Of
SO, 456,075. The field of the loan expan-
sion is not very clear. Certainly new
loans did not find their way into stock
market operations. The increase of over
a million in the outstanding circulation
of the banks is due to the completion of
plats for printin gnotes in Washington,
work on which has delayed the issuance
of notes already applied for by the banks.
A recovery in sterling exchange in Paris
to the high point of the week, and a
sharp rise in Berlin discounts were the
features of the day bearing on the ques-
ton of gold exports next week.
The dulIness of the bond market is an
evidence of the present caution of capital.
The usual reinvestment of July dividends
and interest, althougA the largest amount
was disbursed this year in the country s
history, has been entirely lacking in the
bond market. London and Berlin are re-
ported heavy sellers of high grare Amer
lean railway bonds. But no such trans
actions have been recorded on the stock
exchange. United States refunding Is,
when issued, 3s, old As and IS advanced a
in the bid price.
