RISING TIDE
OF PROSPERITY
Good Times Shown by the
National Bank Official
Statements.

NEW YORK, July 9-Comptroller OF
the Currency Dawes is quoted by the
Washington correspondent of the Press
as saying relative to the condition Of
the national banks of the country:
THE latest detailed reports received
from the national banks of the United
States indicate an unusually high de-
gree of prosperity. The condition OF
the national banking system can be
taken as practical barometer OF the
industrial and commercial condition of
the country generally and therefore the
remarkable showing now being made
by these institutions indicates clearly
that every branch of American trade
and industry Is flushed to a correspond .
ingly high degree.
THE resources of the banks are great
err than ever before in the history of
the national system and the condition
of the banks generally is satisfactory"
The present condition of the banks
stands out in strong contrast against
the dark background of the condition
that prevailed some seven or eight years
ago. In 1898, for instance, the record
for bank failures was reached, when
thirty eight of the national banks went
permanently into the hands of receive
ers. During the first six months of the
present year only seven banks have
failed. while during the entire year of
1900 only five went under.

IN SPITE OF THE STRIKE.
The Risdon Iron Works Working a
Full Force.

The Machinsts' strike is still on in San
Francisco, and the strikers admit that
the Risdom Iron Works is the only firm
that has succeeded in getting a full
working force. The Risdon is boarding
and lodging the men in their works, and
have brought some thirty first-class
moulders from the East and are at pres
ent running fully eight hundred men.
They are overhauling the steamships
Alameda and the Ventura, also the Ferry
steamer Tamalpais, the German bark
Willy Rickmers and other smaller yes
sells.
The ferry steamer Tamalpais was turn
ed over to the owners-the North Pacific
Road-by the Union Iron Works some
three months ago but a defective sheet
in the boilers caused her to be laid up
for repairs. Although she had been ac-
copied by the Railroad company, the
strikers would not allow her boilers to
be repaired by any members of their
union. She was consequently laid up
until the Risdon Iron Works volunteered
to repair her and she Is now at the Ris-
don Iron Works ship-yards receiving
repairs.
None of the other foundries In San
Francisco have made any effort to secure
men, but the Risdon Iron Works is help
ing them out on all of their urgent work.

TERMS OF THE
ROYAL OATH

NEW YORK, July 9--On consldera-
transubstantiation declaration in the
House of Lords last night, says the
Tribune's London correspondent, the
Archbishop of Canterbury complained
that the Episcopal bench had no voice
in amending the declaration. and moved
its reference back to the committee and
the appointment of two additional men,
bers. Earl Grey declared that the re.
vised form was even more offensive
than the original The Lord Chancellor
denied this, his opinion being that ev-
erything Objectionable had been struck
out. Lord Lanff thought that the com
mittee missed great opportunity OF
removing an ancient grievance. LORD
Spencer, Lord Rosebery and the Arch
bishop of York supported the reference
to the committee; Lord Salisbury con.
tended that it was unprecedented to re-
fer back a unanimous report without
single hint respecting the correction
wanted. He advised allowing the bill
to be read a second time SO that II
could be discussed in committee. This
course was eventually adopted.
1t is believed that owing to the wide
divergence of opinion regarding the
royal declaration expressed in the
House of Lords last night the Govern
ment will not try to pass the bill this
year.
In the House of Commons the educa-
ton bin met with vigorous opposition,
members OF both sides condemning II
as cumbersome, inefficient and unwork-
