London, Aug. 1ItCopyright. 1900.
BY the Associated Rress.)-There have
been enough American lectTsc. rail-
road promoters at the Carlton this
week to carry through any scheme for:

Americas as a World Banker.
The outgoing transatlantic steam
ers today are crowded. Senator De-
pew sails on the American line steam
er New York. He spent the last days
of his stay here in examining the new
electric underground railroad. He has
also been in consultation with Brit
ish fnanciers who are specially inter.
estcd in the ability OF the United
States to make loans to Europe. The
senator snid:
THE sudden development of our in
dustries and the immense nccumnla-
ton of money growing out of the fact
that Europe is paying 5000, 100000 ans
nually for American products has not
only brought bank rates on call loans
up 4 and 2 per cent, respectively, but
western banks are now buying paper
in the east because there is no de-
mand for money. The fact that half
the British war loan (all if it had been
pcrmitted) was taken in the United
States demonstrates those conditions
which have already made New York
one of the financial centers Of the
world.
Will Rival london
IF the conditions continue, and ]
have no doubt they will, New York
will soon be a dangerous rival to Lon
don in financing the government en-
terprises of the world. The rapid in
formation we are acquiring regarding
the industrial conditions Of the world,
the necessity Of finding a market for
our increasing surplus products and
our active participation in the solution
of the Chinese problem tend to make
New York an active competitor in
schemes for the development of the
far east. 1t is a nea possibility that
the New York stock exchange will nc
lively dealin many foreign stocks and
bonds. The United States, With 5000
miles of ocean from European gov
ernmental complications, will never
take n military part in the rivalries,
jealousies and wars of Europe. These
very miseries, the wars, make the
United States every year stronger as a
financial factor, and will, l believe,
make New York the financial center
of the world. Up to two years ago
European cabinets took no interest in
American diplomacy and finance.
America was regarded as a granary in
times OF a poor harvest on this side,
and as q dumping ground for surplus
population. Now no cabinet in Europe
makes a move without considering
what is the position Of the United
States In the matter"

Catawba College was chartered by the
State, 1853, but had been regularly opened
for admission of students since 1851
A movement TO secure an endowment
of $50, 900 met with great success as $780,
900 of this amount was raised. But in
the wreck of the war between the States
the entire endowment was lost, and the
college was left helpless. The young men
who were within its walls quit their
studies shouldered their muskets in re-
Spouse to the call of North Carolina. The
friends of the college after the war We're
unable to replace the endowment, but
the influence of the institution as a
high school was felt during all of these
years, until 1885, when the original char
ter was resumed and regular curicu-
lum adopted. The first class was grad
uated in 1889. The first president of the
college was Rev. C. H. Albright on his
retiring Prof. w. H. Smith, his assistant
was elected president.
Hon. Hoke Smith, of Georgia, is son
of President Smith and was born while
his father was president of Catawba col
lege. Rev. A. S. Vaughn was elected
president in 1860, but he remained with
the institution only a short while. A
faculty could not be supported at that
time as the endowment had been lost.
Soon after the war Rev. j. C. Clapp,
and Major S. NJ. Finger, both of whom
received their education largely in Ca
tawba College, but received their de-
grees from New England institutions,
took charge of the buildings and for nine
years conducted classical school of high
grade. Major Finger retired in 1874, and
Rev j. A. Foil was associated with Prof
Clapp. They continued the work until
1885, when the trustees elected a college
faculty with Rev. J. C. Clapp, d. D.,
as president
A strong effort is being made to secure
an endowment fund, which is an abso-
lutte necessity. The Chassis of the Re-
formed church of North Carolina, and the
Alumni Association have already secured
$14 900, and the Synod of the Potomac
(Reformed church, has pledged an addi-
tion of SIT coo to that amount on which
an annual interest of $1,000 is paid until
the principal is raised.

by the board of trustees.
Among the graduates and students of
the institution are ministers of the gos-
pei. teachers, lawyers, and leading citi-
zens in several of the western counties.
The prospects for the institution are
brighter than ever before, and with the
new life and new zeal at the head we
may expect greater results than ever be-
fore from Catawba College.

SUPERIOR MERIT.
Remarkable Curative Properties of
Remedy for Indigestion and Stom-
ach Weakness.

Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets, prepara-
various forms of Indigestion and stom-
ach trouble, owes its great success as
a cure for these troubles to the fact
that it is prepared for disease and weak
ness of the stomach and digestive organs
only, and is not recommended or advised
for any other disease.
1t is not a cure-all, but for any Stom-
ach trouble it is undoubtedly the safest,
most sensible remedy that can be advised
with the prospect of permanent cure.
1t is prepared in tablet form, pleasant to
taste, composed of vegetable and fruit
essences, pure pepsin and Golden Seal,
every one of which act effectively in
digesting the food eaten, thereby resting
and invigorating the weak stomach rest
is natures cure for any disease, but you
cannot rest the stomach unless you put
into it something that will do it's work
or assist in the digestion of food
That is exactly what Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets do one grain of the digestive
principle contained in them will digest
5000 grains of meat, eggs or similar
wholesome foods, they will digest the food
whether the stomach is in working order
or not, thereby nourishing the body and
resting the stomach at the same time
and rest and nourishment is natures cure
for any weakness.
In persons run down in flesh and appe-
tite these tablets build up the strength
and increase flesh, because they digest
conforming food which the weak stom-
ach cannot do, they increase the flow
of gastric juice and prevent fermentation,
acdity and sour watery risings.
Stuart'S Dyspepsia Tablets can be found
at all drug stores at so cents per pack
age.
