The Stars FIRE in the SKY .qu Day.

HE stars are in the sky all day;
Each linked coil of Milky Way,
And every planet that we know,
Behind the is circlng slow.
They sweep, they climb with stately tread
Venus the fair and Mars the red,
Saturn engrdled with clear light,
And Jupiter with moons of white.
There they all day long; but we.
Sunblinded have eyes to see
The stars are in the sky all day;
But when the sun has gone away,
And lowering shadows cool the west
And call the sleepy birds to rest,
And heaven grows softly dim and dun,
Into the darkness by
Steal forth those starry shapes all fair
We say steal forth, but they were there,
There all day long, unseen, unguessed,
Climbing the sky from east to west.
I wonder if the earth is full
OF other secrets beautiful,
AS little guessed as hard to see
AS the sweet starry mystery?
Do angels veil themselves in space
And make the sun their hiding place?
Do white wings flash spirits go
On heavenly errands to and fro,
While we down looking, never guess,
How lives they crowd and press?
If so at life's sunset may
Into the dusk steal noiselessly
Sweet faces that we used to know,
Dear eyes like stars that softly glow,
Dear hands stretched out to point the way,
And dream the night more fair than day.

BEWARE OF
SPECULATION
WARNING OF EXAMINER KIDD TO
BANKERS.
CARELESS OF SECURITIES
In His Report He Says Present specu-
Iatve Era May Be Harmful to In
stitutions Which Do Not Use Prop
err Degree of Caution in Handling
Securities.

Bank Examiner E. l. Kidd in his
quarterly report of the condition of
state and private banks given out yes
terday warns these institutions against
the present tendency toward specula-
ton. In his opinion the present spec
ulative era may be productive OF much
harm as there are many temptations
and incentives for bankers to loan
money upon securities which are spec
ulative in their character. This, he
says, if INDUCED in may and is likely
to endanger the safety of institutions
that do not exercise an extreme de-
gree CT caution. He also says that
there is strong temptation at the
present time for bankers to handle
class of securities which in the past
they did not hesitate to reject.
This note of warning coming as it
does so soon after the legislature has
increased the powers of the bank ex-
aminer is thought to be significant. In
recent years there have. been several
failures among the small banks of the
state because of the loaning of money
Oh uuCGudLluS SSCuI 1LlCS, ciuu CAouSh
some of these loans were made with
the knowledge of the examiner he
was powerless to stop it even though
the safety Of the institutions was
threatened. But at the recent session
of the legislature a law was passed
giving the bank examiner power to
take charge of any institutions whose
business seems to be in a precarious
condition.
Mr.. Kidd's report in full follows:
The reports received from the state
and private banking institutions by
the bank examiner, in response to
call showing their condition at the
close of business April oath last, the
aggregate resources and liabilities of
which are given below, indicate that
these institutions are in a strong and
prosperous condition.

Phillips Closes His Master Corr
Coup Successfully.

Chicago, May 19.-Phillips' great
corner in May corn is practically fin
ished. The corn kings profits for his
customers are enormous. Scenes Of
wild excitement marked the opening
in the corn pit yesterday morning.
The large army of small traders who
had been trailing Phillips in the hope
of reaping a rich harvest from his
efforts foresaw their doom and made
frantic efforts to close out their lines
without losses.
The May option opened lower and
sold rapidly from 1872 to 46 cents,
closing at 461a, as compared with
close last night of 501a cents. The re-
ceipts were 1876 cars, with 161 cars
contract, and in addition to this there
were 81 cars and $4,000 bushels of
contract corn transferred from private
to public houses.
Gables showed that large shipments
were being made to European markets
from Argentina and the Danubian
ports This corn is being offered
abroad at lower figure than Phillips
could afford to sell his line at, and he
was wise enough to see that his deal
could be closed out at profit only on
condition that too much cash corn
was not acquired.
The closing c. Phillips corner
marks an epoch in board of trade his
tory. For weeks he has exercised un-
disputed sway over the corn markets
