II you can't sec II that VIC can save

forever rendered impossible hereafter by
a decision handed down by Judge Chy-
traus in the circuit court, if sustained by
higher court.
1.-THE ordinary courts Of Justice" said
the court. Constituting one of the
branches Of our government, ought not to
be and should not submit to being exclud-
ed or ousted Of Jurisdiction by intend

With some sarcasm, the court adds:
"The mastery ingenuity of the plan con-
trived to prevent appeal to the common
law courts of the state commands our
admiration. Think of the long time Of
operation that has proved the scheme a
successful one. The loser. who may feel
himself aggrieved and who may know
himself to have been wronged by the
operation of a corner, or otherwise, at
law, can only sue to get his money back.

TRADE REPORT.

R. G. Dun & Co. S weekly Review
of Trade last week says:
Industrial activity is greater than at
any recent date. Many new factories
and mills have been added to the pro-
ductive capacity, facilities are being
increased at old plants and idle shops
resumed through the settlement of
labor controversies. Despite the rapid
development of transportation facili-
ties, the nations needs have grown still
faster and the situation is distressing
for shippers and consumers.
Large crops are being harvested and
the greater abundance of foodstuffs
caused decline in prices of commod-
tiles during August of 3d. per cent as
measured by Dun's index number.
Retail trade is larger, with bright
outlook for the future in jobbing and
wholesale business. Low stocks of
wheat and poor grading of receipts, to-
gether with fears of frost in corn Sec
tons, sustained quotations when de-
cline would have been eminent.
Failures for the week in the United
States Numbered 205, and 20 in Canada.

new YORK NEEDS MORE CASH
ASK TREASURY DEPARTMENT
For Money to Tide Over Present Cri-
sis-Money Has Been Sent to the
West to Move Crops-secretary
Shaw Released 100000 in Gold
for New York Bankers.

Washington, Sept. 1.-THE following
was given out at the treasury depart
ment:
THE New York banks are complaining
because the unprecedented demand in the
west is reducing their available cash.
They therefore ask that they may be al
lowed to go into the market, pay 81, 100, =
600 for million of bonds and receive
from the treasury a million deposit, with
the bonds as security. They seem willing
to do this, and increase the reserves $780,
900 against this increased liability. Thus
the banks would decrease their available
cash $3.50, 1000, but they would be drawing
the interest on the bonds. Instead Of this
the secretary Is loaning to any bank upon
its free bonds. In this way the western
demand upon the banks will be relieved.

Secretary Shaw has issued the following
statement:
Secretary Shaw has made arrange
ments to release about 100000 Of the
