in wiping out much Of the days losses.
Preliminary figures OF to-morrow's
bank statement indicate loss in cush
by the banks of over $7,0o0,e00. This
showing reflects the exports of gold on
last Saturday as well as those of this
week. But for the gold exports the
banks would have gained almost So
100000 on the interior currency move
ment and pension and interest payment
of the sub-treasury. An increase in the
loan item of the banks is not consider

Stocks-If any expectation has been
entertained that the rescue of the for
eign ministers in China would arouse
speculative enthusiasm, Wall streets
reception of the news was disappoint-
Ing. In fact the speculation was more
sluggish than at any time this week,
reactionary. This proved that the
event had been fully discounted. There
was conflict at the opening to deter
mine the markets tendency, in which
the bears soon obtained the upper
hand. In consequence there was a
general sagging of prices, but in no
case did the fall reach point in the
railroad list. The most effective SELL
Ing was in the steel stocks, the group
being affected by reports of trade con-
ficts and expected cuts in products.
The important movements of the day
eentered in Brooklyn Transit and Con-
solidated Gas. Both stocks after mo-
mentary weakness started upwards and
ended with good gains. An official an
nouncement that the much heralded
Brooklyn Transit annual report would
be given out late to-day attached in
terest to the movement in the stock.
No definite news accounted for the
weakness in the railroad list, but the
opinion prevailed that profit taking
was primarily responsible. London's
purchases of st. Paul failed to sustain

earnings for the second week of Au-
gust Of $20,324. Foreign purchases

OF the college for colored

sion that rs vet it is Il very crude affair
that is as an educational institution.
We do not see how it could be other
wise with the small fund ut its disposal.
There is another view of this matter
that is of the greatest Importance. The
grant of the lipcral sum from the gem
cral government for educational purposes
is made conditional that provision he
made for colored students. ana we prc-
sumc that this implies provision for their
education that Shall be equally as good
rs that provided. ont Of the same fund
for white students. and that we think
impossible with the present division Of
the funds. The need for good edncation-
al facilities for colorcd students is great
er than that for white students. The
avenues for the white students education
are numerous and are all open to them.
For the colored people such avenues
are few and far between. and yet the
citizens. is their ignorance. 1t is their
misfortune and is made reprOach.
That is not only injustice to the colored
people. hut an injury to the State. The
necessity of educating these people
whose ignorance is continually set forth
as disqualifying them for the duties OF
citizenship is. or ought to hr apparent to
the most careful observer: and if in no
other way. it ought 10 commend itself
to the serious consideration Of every
thoughtful person as matter Of public
defense. The State as surely needs de-
Tense against the mistakes Of ignorance,
as ii ,o"s against the assaults Of foreign
powers and in this ease The defense
against ignorance is also y defense
against invasion to make good, intcil-
gent and patriotic citizens is tho nations
