Colon. Dec. yesterday and today

GLOOM IN ENGLAND.
Conditions Are Bad and No Better
Are Expected.


London, Dec. During the past
week the stock exchange has been any
thing but a cheerful resort Money
has been decidedly tight, forcing Dor
rowers TO have recourse to the bank.
Fortunately, the governments dis
bursements have been larger tor this
week. France also shows d disposition
TO increase her balances in London.
while the hope is expressed that far
Their gold Will be forthcoming from
New York. But with the approach of
the year end and a large slice of the
last loan soon due there is small hope
Of easy money before well into Janu-
airy OF next year. IN the meantime
business is as stagnant as ever.
The industrial situation is decidedly
bad. The Welsh miners who have
been stopping work in the blind hope
of raising prices by restricting the
coal production have merely succeeded
in irritating the owners, who now
threaten a lockout while the reported
uncertainty Of the Welsh situation mas
thrown numerous steam coal contracts
for Great Britain and France into the
hands OF German and American COM
petitors.
The copper situation is enveIoped in
past, and there is a FEELING in the air
that unfavOTable developments are
imminent. Silver is closely allied to
copper. and the present phenomenal
decline i'm copper is taken to indicate
that American interests. which are
here believed to have been maintain
ing artiicially high prices, are about
to relax their grip. A sharp break in
both metals is possible.
1t is only fair to say that such
gloomy views are largely based upon
the differences Of spectators, and are
probably intensified by the general
discomfort in the industrial lookout and
the never-ending war in South Africa.
The situation in Germany adds A
certain encoura cement. While it is be-
1ievet here that the worst of the Ger
man financial crisis is over. the present
industrial stagnaticn in that country
supports the theory that numerous
small failures are bound to be re-
ported at intervals for months To
come. Such an outlook is scarcely en-
couraging for promoters.

the only part of Europe in which a suit
able home can be arranged for such ami

various species Of birds, seem to thrive
well enough in the geological gardens in

many years. He was naturally good,
and daily contact with nature added to
his goodness. He came to be known
far and wide as a man who always
shoveled the snow off his sidewalk
clear up to the line, and if he had a
lawsuit about a line fence he didn't
drag in the whole country. When he
went up to Jerusalem, he was honored
and respected of all men, and his daily
life was without blot. No one has
tried to explain why Judas suddenly

things away. He was rewarded with
"a pieces of silver, but he had no note
coming due and was not hard up for
cash. But change he did, and he no
