SINKING FUND.
The power to create a public debt

ton 70. make provision to pay it off at
maturity. The law in so many words
says that the Council shall levy at
least one mill every year to create
sinking fund to meet the cities bond
ed Indebtedness. The sinking fund at
the time this levy was discontinued
amounted to about s24,O00.00, and the
Council should restore the levy just
as soon as possible. We hope that the
stress for more money which induced
Council to stop the sinking fund levy
and turn II over to some other object
has now passed and that 1t will be re-
stored and never again disturbed.

Eg-MAYOR W. |. STRONG DIES
LEADER OF
1894 sUCcUMBs SUDDENLY.
Was the Last Chief Executive of
New York City Before Its ConsoIi-
dation With Brooklyn.

New York, Nov. William L.
Strong. the last mayor of the old city
Of New York. died suddenly at a. m.
at his residence in this city. Mr.. Strong
had not been at his place IF business
for several days. but no one suspected
that his condition was alarming.
Mr.. Strong took an active part in the
present campaign and Ii IS said that
his political Iabors, combined with his
attempts to retain supervision over his
business affairs in the face Of impaired
health brought about the liness that
resulted in his death.
William l. Strong was born IN Ohio
in 1927 and came to New York when a
young man. He found employment
with different firms until Jan 1, 1870,
when he organized the firm Of William
L. Strong & Co. The firm soon grew
TO be one of the prominent business
houses. in the CITY He also interested
himself in banking matters and was
president of the Central National bank.
Mr.. Strong was the last mayor of the
old city of New York before COnSOlida-
ton with Brooklyn and the other
bOrOUghs composing the present city.
At a mass meeting in Madison Square
Garden in 1894 a nOn-paTtisan commit
tee of seventy was appointed to organ
ize the opposition to Hall,
to frame a platform and select candi-
dates for office. and it was this COM
mittee that selected Mr.. Strong to run
for mayor on the reform platform His
opponent was Hugh J. Grant and the
contest was a bitter one. The outcome
was the election of Mr.. Strong by a
plurality of 4T.167.
The administration of Mr.. Strong was
an eventful one. Mr. Strong was
n -1zz-nTT1v f7dnnnndpnf UipuC
city politics. In the municipal cam
paign of 1897, which resulted in the
return of Tammany to power he took
the stump for Seth Low, as against
General Benjamin +. Tracy, the regular
Republican candidate. After this cleo
ton he virtually retired from active
politics due to falling health.

WEEKLY TRADE REVIEW
Business Is Hesitating, Owing
to Approaching Election.
IRON SITUATION BETTER
WHEAT IS HIGHER ON REDUCED
ARGENTINE CROP.

New York, Nov. ar. G. Dun & Co. s
weekly review of trade tomorrow viii
say:
The period of suspense is nearly over.
Business has been longing for a free
field in which to leap forward, but has
restricted buying largely to wants for
immediate consumption. Some evidence
appears of willingness to take specula-
tive chances in the movement of few
standard goods. notably of iron and
steel The actual resumption of opera
lions IN the anthracite coal fields has
added largely to the working force, and
the closing down of a few small steel
plants is only in the nature Of cOnscen-
tratlng operations at more advantage
Gus points and has not much reduced
the number of men employed The
Weather IN some sections has favored
business but at New York has been
unreasonable, accounting for much of
the loss of 1913 per cent in bank clear
ings here.
Encouraging signs multiply in the
iron industry. Strength in Bessemer
and gray forge at Pittsburg shows that
the recent increase in activity of finish
ed forms has at last affected the mar
ket for raw material. Improvement in
domestic buying of pig is the more
noticeable because of decrease in eX-

active demand from ship builders. and
with talk of pool to sustain the price,
Bar iron would sell readily al former
prices. but holders grow stubborn. Re
ports are current that American con-
Germs have contracted for machine
shops in Bremen and numerous bridges
abroad, including some I'm Africa. Bill
lets at Philadelphia cost $50. which
does not look like reduction in steel
rails. Buyers in these lines decided not
to wait for election to place contracts.
There was also some recovery in
wheat. started by the statement that
Argentina would not be bile TO export
freely this year because of the injury
to the growing crop. Small concessions
are made by importers of raw sugar.
Failures for the week were 1913 in the
United States against 1873 last year. and

WEEK IN FINANCE.
Speculative Market Has Conservative
Tendency.

New York, Nov. 2.-Bvadstreet's fin
ancial review tomorrow will say:
As the presidential election draws
near the speculative stock market has
become more sensitive to the uncer-
tainties which it involves. The up
ward movement of prices, which was
the feature of the preceding fortnight,
and which was in effect a diScOunting
of the expected result has been checked
by the general disposition to take
profits or TO reduce commitments in the
market The hardening of money rates
over the election has also created con-
SerVatiSm on the part of the commits
sion houses and the tendency in such
quarters is to have customers restrict
transactions for the moment 1t is
also noted that throughout the street
the disposition has been to call for
much larger margins and to otherwise
prepare for any emergency. The mar
ket thus seems to have placed itself in
position to await the outcome in a calm
way, and it is also noted that the
realizing by people who bought early
IN the recent rise has not resulted in
any material decline. Large interests
and bull pools have not made them
selves prominent or given much open
support to the various prominent
stocks. Professionals, in fact, have
shown an inclination to hold off, and
the trading element among them were
nearly ready to act on the bear side.
1t is noticed, however, that at any
concessions in prices good stocks have
been readily absorbed by outside buy
erS. This was especially the case with
the high grade dividend payers, though
1t extended to other stocks as well and
represented d considerable extent the
outright purchase of securities to take
them entirely out of the market. This
process was sufficiently well marked to
afford support TO prices at the decline
and to check the tendency of the room
to indulge in short sales. 1t would also
seem to result from the general feeling
in stock market circles that in the
event of a satisfactory victory for the
sound money cause the market would
be likely to broaden and advance. The
foreign markets were dun and heavy
this week, and London did little here,
being a seller on balance.
