ENDLESS CHAIN OF SILVER.
Eastern Country Banks Combine
Against the Boston Clearing House.

Against the Boston Clearing House.
Boston Special to st. Louis Globe-Demo-
crat.
y novel system in banking has been pre-
sented here by the fight Of about seventy
five country banks Of New England against
the Boston clearing house. These banks. re-
tusing 10 pay 100 cents on the dollar of the
just claims presented by the clearing house.
have resorted to an endless chain method of
transporting silver dollars all over New
England at the expense Of the government
and the clearing house, and. although the
practice has been in vogue only one week,
it Is raising a lot of trouble.
Having refused to pay at par, these banks
were notified by the clearing house COM
mittee that on and after Aug. q the clear
ing house would collect checks on them by
express. But two of the banks were found
to be so far away from a railroad that no
express company would do business with
them, and so another perplexing problem
confronted the clearing house committee.
But, 10 add to their troubles, the country
bankers discovered that they could use the
government as a cat's-paw, and so put the
United States SubtreaSury TO work against
the banks of Boston by taking advantage

The act of March 3. 1900. is the one in
question. and ii appropriates for the year
ending June 80. 1902. for transportation
of silver coin, including fractional silver
coin, by registered mail or otherwise, $780,

tary OF the treasury is authorized ana al
rected TO transport from the treasury Or
subtreaSury, free of charge, silver coin
when requested to do so; provided, that
an equal amount of coin or currency shall
have been deposited in the treasury or sub
treasures by the applicant or applicants.
Several banks have in the past week had
the United States subtreasurer here send
them $4,000 in silver dollars by express at
THE expense of the government. The idea
is to have the government pay the expense
of transportation into the country ana the
Boston clearing house pay the eXpresSage
back to Boston. Practically, these banks
have already paid I'm advance 100000 OF
checks from Boston, for this amount they
balances in this city to obtain the silver OF

a weapon to annoy the Boston banks, III

SCHLEY USED STRATEGY.
How He Got Rid Of Two Objectionable


Baltimore News.
The following anecdote is told Of Admiral
Winfield Scott Schley by a former mess
mate Of his in the days when Schley was a
midshipman i'm the navy. "befO' de wah."
Schley's vessel had been on a cruise to
the tropics. and while there the officers had
captured two small ringtailed monkeys, and
had taken them aboard the ship as mas
cots.
When the monkeys had acquired their
"Sea legs and a working knowledge of the
ship they set about to make the lives of
the officers and men as miserable as they
could-and, being monkeys, they succeeded
very well. Daily their victims would be
incensed to find that the simians had paid
them a most unappreciated visit. and had
either hidden or thrown overheard some
of their belongings.
At length the officers determined that
they would stand it no longer. A council
of war was held, during which the mon
keys threw several other things to Davy
Jones, and ways and means of Kidding the
ship OF the little pests were discussed. Al
though the meeting was a unit that the
monkeys should be disposed of. none of the
gentlemen wanted to be constituted exc
cutioner, and the council was adjourned
| without arriving at a decision.
When Midshipman Schley went on deck
next morning. after having been visited the
preceding night by the monkeys, his eye
fell upon A bucket of grease. He immedi-
ately began to associate the grease with
| the monkeys. and the upshot Of his ponder
ings was told by the officer as follows:
'Schley lured the monkeys 10 him with
something to eat, and when he got his
hands on them creased their tails well with
the mess i'm the bucket. The monkeys
seemed rather to enjoy the thing, and when
SChley got through with his task they be-
gan to chase each other about the deck. as
they had a habit of doing. Finally they
ran up a rope and got out on n spar, where
they proceeded to indulge in gymnastics
which ultimately proved fatal, for as they
wrapped their tails about the spar and
swung free of ropes they promptly slipped
overheard and were lost. Thus did the flu.

Modern Military Men Tastidious.

Reports from Luzon say that Funs-
ton and the other American officers,
when they set out to capture Aguin-
aldo, were equipped with a tooth
brush, a towel and half a blanket
apiece. How striking a contrast be-
tween the classical and the modern
conquerors! When Alexander of
Macedon went over to Asia, it is not
recorded that his luggage contained
tooth brushes or towels or blankets.
Hannibal invaded Italy with no heavy
baggage Of that sort. Julius Caesar
made Gaul a Roman province without
burdening his transportation train
with so weighty a load, and there is
no mention of such luXuries in the
annals of Alaric, of Attila, Of Tanner
lane or Genghis Khan. Campaign
conditions change as the centuries roll
by, and it may be that Agulnaldo could
not have been taken captive if the
expedition against him had not been
