MONEY EASY AT BERLIN.
Iron Industry Seriously Affected by
War In China.

War In China.
BERLIN, July 15.-After the advance in
boerse values that marked the preceding
week, q moderate decline set In which
continued until Thursday. Friday and
Saturday, however, witnessed q reaction,
the decline being checked In the case OF
about six points. Chinese loans gained
several points at the outset OF the week,
but lost some at the end. The boerse
closed very dull, the suspense over the
titude and apprehension. Even the re-
duction of the Reichsbank rate failed to
encourage traders.
AT the time Of the Reichsbank rate re-
duction last Friday President Kochs an
nounced that the prospects of the bank
continued to improve, 2OO0,0O0 marks In
gold having been received since July /.
He asserted that the banks reserve al
ready amounted to $4,000, 900 marks.
Money is now remarkably easy. the pri-
Vate rate being, nearly as low as the low
est figures touched last year. This con-
dition has caused an increase in capital
for flotations and more than 1900, 900
marks In the way of new industries have
been advertised in Berlin during the last
few days. The total new issues of the
six months of the year reached 1,109 600 600
marks nominal value, against 1878, coz, 900
1899.
Reports from the iron industry are be-
coming less and less favorable. Silesia
has been doing an unusually light busi-
ness in pig iron. Westphalia, where many
Chinese orders have been placed during
the last few years, complains that the fin
ished goods are not now being taken up.
Similar complaints como from other
points. The rolling mills and steel works
in Westphalia complain that new orders rs
have greatly slowed up. One mammoth
establishment in Hagen announces that
1t will soon discharge a portion tn on OF Its its
Syndicate it was announced that condi-
lions were such Us 10 call for a reduction
The Berlin chamber of commerce has
appointed a commission to prepare
memorial to the reichstag in favor OF an
amendment of the boerse law.
The latest published statistics show o ca dp.
itaf to the amount Of about SOo0OO, oOo
marks invested in the electrical Industry
and generating plants. So,
Last weeks favorable weather, dispell-
ed the fears entertained regarding the
beet crop. Labor troubles have. broken
out among the wOgeI1 in the a snp

to take the places Of the striking men.

LONDON, July 15.--The stock exchange
was Irregular last week. After a good
opening and an easy settlement business
dwindied to the narrowest dimensions.

of an early rise in the bank rate and
other unfavorable features combineN to
depress investors and to render the out
look for SPECTATORS uncertain. Consols
went down to 987B, almost the lowest fig

NEW YORK. July 14.-Today's stock
market was extremely dull, only small
trades between the regular frequenters
of the floor being made at any time Some
desultory efforts were. made to advance
Union Pacific by making bids for the
next dividend on a specified number OF
shares at a higher figure than the pre-
Yailing dividend rate. But these efforts
secured little attention. The market was,
as whole, lower than last night when
some light buying to cover shorts, but
the large increase in reserves and in
the surplus attracted even less attention
than did last weeks unexpected decrease
There was no explanation Of the large
gain in cash. and 1t was generally accept

Disasters much less appalling than that
of Saturday have often raised the ques-
ton whether or not they could have been
prevented by human ingenuity. Progress
Is largely achieved through plumbers and
by the development of unforeseen posi-
bilities of peril. Railway collisions have
pointed out the value of double tracks
and block signaling. and ensuing conf1a-
grations have brought about reforms in
methods of heating and lighting cars In
like manner accidents at sea have red to
the construction of double bottoms. the
Introduction of electrically closed bulk
head doors and the holding of frequent
elaborate boat drills among the crews of
the great liners The Hoboken calamity
was unique in more respects than one
But the proverb about lighting never
striking twice In the same place long ago
proved untrue. And even IL the particu-
lar combination of circumstances which
resulted so horribly on Saturday should
not occur again in q century, something
equally unexpected and fearful and not
50 different is sure to happen tomorrow

made some kind OF a cabalistic mark on

GOLD IN A BARREL.
Heirs Found II After a Woman's
Death.

Oeatn.
For several years a barrel contain.
ing $4,000, nearly all in gold, was
hidden in the cellar of the home of
Mrs. Ella w. Quinn, Of North Phil
adelphia. After her death, two days
ago, the fortune-laden barrel was dis.
covered.
Mrs. Quinn's estate, valued at $780,.
900, was divided between her heirs.
Six-year-old John Quinn, Of Trenton,
inherited 100000. For two years pre-.
vious to her death Mrs. Quinn limited
at a hidden fortune. III all the rest
is swept away, I'll still have enough
to keep me-" she said.
This led to thorough search of the
house. In one corner of the cellar,
amid old hoops and refuse, was found
the barrel 1t was broken open, and
the gold coins In denominations rang.
ing from 81 to $50 rolled in a heap
upon the cellar floor. Some paper
money of large denomination was
packed in the bottom. The gold was
packed tightly between layers of cot
ton. The barrel was lined with as
bestos. For how many years the bar
rel remained in the cellar is mys.
