The most amazing thing about Moro

And the greens and reds are no soft
subdued affairs; they are the most vio-
lent and vehement things in the co'or

wonder. though. II they were of the
right shade of brown you couldn't tell
that there were any trousers. Nothing
SO tight was ever contrived by any sar-
torial artist who uses the English Ian
guage. But for one thing the conclusion
would be irresistible that they are made
on the wearers, and worn off, that is,
that sometimes they are changed. Cen
eral Bates once waited about two hours for
Dato, with whom he had some business,
to change his trousers and those two hours
were filled with language and strange
sounds from within the house of the Dato.
But at the end of them there was the
demonstration that the trousers could be
changed, although the mystery Of their
construction was increased.
Moro women wear trousers also, but they
go to the other extreme. Each trouser leg
Is big enough to make sacks for 400 pounds
of bran. Each woman dyes the flimsy silk
of which she makes her trousers to suit
herself.

Growing Membership Brings In
crease of Interest in the sport.


One of the most important meetings ever
held by an Executive Committee of the
League of American Wheelmen was that
which convened at the Aston House last
Friday, and was in session for two days.
AS the League accomplishes so much in
the interests of cycling generally the meet
ing was Of importance to all wheelmen.
The most urgent business transacted was
to further the plans for the insertion of a
good roads plank in the National platforms
OF both the Republican and Democratic
parties. THIS matter is now in the hands
of the highway improvement committee
which reported most satisfactory progress.
The executive officers expressed them
selves as more than satisfied with the
progress Of the organization during the
three months which have elapsed since the
assembly. and when the first issue of the
new magazine appears in June they expect
many more new applications and renewals
OF memberships. The funds received from
these sources will be Immediately used for
the benefit of members and in the inter
ests of wheelmen generally, and the COM
mittee has asked all wheeelmen to assist
it in the work by becoming members.

meeting in New York. last week. shows

Secretary Bassett. of the League of
American Wheelmen, reports that nearly
500 members Of the organization have al
ready availed themselves Of the privileges
of the touring alliances with European
countries, and have taken cards in the Cy-
clsts' Touring Club, which are furnished
to all League members contemplating for
eign tours upon request.
A peculiar instance of the privileges that
some of the divisions of the League of
American Wheelmen secure for their men,
bers is reported from Baltimore. There
the Maryland Division has secured a con-
cession from the street railroad companies
whereby only members of the League of
American Wheelmen are allowed to put
their wheels upon the street cars in case
OF breakages or other causes which would
prevent the use Of the machines.

Secretary Long.
In accordance with the unanimous rec
concentration of the court-martial which
convicted Capt John MCGOWAN, U. S. N,
of charges growing out of the shooting OF
Filipino native at Cebu in November
last, that clemency be extended. the Sec

way to Ruxton. Game will be called at 2

O'Clock
The Washington Exchange will have its
regular Saturday call at II O'Clock instead
of at II, in order that the early train may
be caught. No event heretofore in his
tory has been considered Of sufficient i'm
portance to cause moving Of the hour of
call on the exchange. The reason for haste
is explained by the Baltimore committee
on management to be that another ball
game is scheduled for 4:30 o'clock on the
same day at the same grounds. The visi
tors are to remain and witness the second
event.
The local team, under the management
Of A. X. Paris, is as follows, subject to
changes which are likely at all times and
frequently to be made: W. B. Hibbs.

Flather, S. N. Whitwell C. p. Williams,
Walter Hieston, A. X. Paris.
The team will have practice game on
Wednesday afternoon at the Y. NJ. G. A.
Park. There is some material which was
excellent several years ago on the team
and some that never played game OF
ball in its life. Mr.. Paris. however, ex-
poets to do much in getting it into shape
in the two hours work on Wednesday.
Mr.. Paris was at one time player Of
merit and originality, but of recent years
he has been a student simply, and 1t Is
thought by some that his closet theories
may be impossible Of accomplishment In
the rough arena. Messrs. Hibbs, the
president of the exchange; Mearns. Bar
ross. Greenlees, Reed, and one or two
others have been players in other days
of various degrees of merit and dement,.
The two stock exchanges three years ago
played a game in Washington and the
local team was the victor. In 1898 and in
1899 efforts were made to arrange meet
ing. but insuperable obstacles interviewed to
prevent it on each occasion. SO the game
next Saturday will be the first cnance of
the Baltimore people to secure revenge.

Review of Money Market.

New York. June 23.=The Financier says:
As fOreShadOweG in this analysis last
week, the loan movement which has been
an important and interesting feature of
the New York bank statement for some
weeks past. has apparently eliminated.
The loan item for the six days just ended
remained practically stationary, a slight
advance of SOS contrasting with the
average expansion of several millions
weekly over the recent spring season. The
chief feature Of the current statement,
however, is the loss of $3,16S, 800 in cash,
which Is also reflected in q decrease of
81, 7S7, 900 in deposits. 1t had been figured
that the loss sustained by the banks on
gold export requirements had been prac-
ucally cOUnterbalanced by interior re-
ceiptS and in fact, that the cash totals
ment, made on system of averages,
shows otherwise. Since May 26 last, the
banks have increased their, cash holdings
only nominally while loans have eXpa nded
sl1.0O0,000, and in the deposits over $4,000
600. The rapid rise of the loan total is
generally interpreted to be due TO invest
mentS in sterling exchange, and some es-
Inmates have placed the total OF such bus
mess at SlOOO00,0O0. 1t is only fair to say,
however, that no calculations on this
point are to be relied upon.
The anomaly presented in New York
within the last week, of money lOaning
on call at l per cent. while at the same
time gold was being exported to Europe,
cannot be expected to continue much lon
ger Already there is more frmness noted
in the local market and an indisposition
prevails to make loans over the end of
the year If the precedents of the past
year are of value on the fOTecasting of the
future, there viii be a decline in the loan
totals of the banks very shortly. This
continued flow Of money to New York is
attracting attention at present, but do
nestle exchange rates, for all that, are
hardening at the more important financial
centers. The circulation of the banks is
now SO, 33S, $50 and is growing, despite the
light demand locally for funds.
