A Punish nent.

Sat ut the table.
Drumming with fork and spoon,
Till her mother said, Child,
shall really 80 wild
If you don't stop that gathering soon."
But little Miss Mabel
Kept up such babel
That, what do you think happened next!
Her spoon and her fork
Were sent to New York,
And Mabel was very much vexed.

The Greedy saeeharIne Infant.

From the New York World.
 Extracts published yesterday from "a letter dated January F, 1899, written and issued by W. Bayard Cutting and Henry F. Oxnard, relating to the beet-sugar in- dustry in the United States when these directors of the American Beet Sugar Company were seeking for investments Tn it's stock, were mighty interesting read ing in view of the present hold-up or re- lief to Cuba in Congress by this same ln- terest.
 The letter declared that there Is no fear that Cuban production even under an annexation to the United States, can in our day expand to the point where the United States would become exporters Of sugar instead of importers" And it proved by citations of prices during the free sugar period under the Wilson law, from 1891 to 1894 that the beet industry need not fear even absolute free trade in sugar.
 Messrs. Cutting and Oxnard showed in detail that their factories made a met profit per ton of $3' on the product and said:
 ",rhe factories are capable of manufac- turing at least 350,000 tons of beets into sugar per annum, and 350,000 multiplied by three would give $1,050.00O as the income to be derived under absolute free trade should the price of sugar be at the lowest price prevailing during the years when all duty was removed from the raw sugar. And this is the infant industry that is now proclaiming at Washington that it will die without a protection of 94 per cent against Cuban and all other sugar, and will kill the Republican party if this is denedi
 This document ought to settle the ques- tion whether Roosevelt or Oxnard is the leader of the Republican party

BANK STATEMENT NEARLY HARMONIOUS Reserve Requirements Were LeSsened Very Little WEEKLY BANK ITEMS The Losses of Cash by the Banks Will Most Likely Be counterbaIanoed
 Later on In the Cur
 rent Week.

New York, March 29.-The New York F1nancier says this week;
 The bank statement of last week showed gain of s1,524,OOO in cash, instead of the loss of $1.3145OO which was estimated from the traceable movement of money up to Wednesday. The discrepancy may possibly be accounted for on the theory that the receipts of the banks on and after Thursday were in excess of the shipments and that the outward move- ment for April settlements did not begin to be important until the close of the bank week. The loans show a decrease of $S, 7S76 600, making $31, OPT, 500 for the three weeks since March 15, inclusive. The deposits were reduced last week S7.- SS1, 300, making S4O.313 400 in the three weeks. It is noteworthy that in this in- terval the loss in cash was only $901, 800. The statement is nearly harmonious, the net loss resulting from the decrease of loans, less the gain in cash, being only $526 700 below the amount of the reduc- tion in deposits The reserve require ments were lessened by $1, 910, 325. which added to the gain in cash, made an in crease in surplus reserve of S3, ,494. .325 This item now stands at $6, e45,S75, against SS70,500 at the corresponding date last year. The losses of cash by the banks which will probably result from the ship ments of money in response to the de- mand for the April settlement. will, la ter in the current week. most likely be counterbalanced by the return of this money from nearby centers after such adjustments have been affected, so that the Arrangement to the money market caused by the outflow will be temporary only.

RUSSIAN PEASANTS RIOT.
Eighteen Thousand Lay Waste Eighty
Rich Estates,

Rich Estates. .-
st. Petersburg, April 2S.-The peas
ants in the Poltava and Kharkoff
provinces. where $4,000 are reported
to be participating in riots, have al
ready sacked so estates, where they
destroyed everything they could not
carry off. The whole region is ter
lo' ,zed and landowners and stewards
are fleeing for safety. The fear is i'll
creasing that Kharkoff and other
towns will be attacked. Some of the
authorities are showing weakness and
rrsillanimity, while others are cruel
ly vigorous and are causing Wholesale
torgings of persons arrested. The ag-
ita.lon at Moscow is so serio:ls that
the czar has relinquished his inten-
ton of spending the Russian Easter
there. The ministers, including NJ
DeWitte, the minister of finance, con-
tinue to receive letters threatening
them with death.
Judicial inquiry into the assassina-
tion of M. Sipiaguine, minister of the
interior, has led to the arrest of many
persons suspected of connection with
an anti-governmental conspiracy.
These include a Jewess, who is the
fanee of Balschaneff. the assassin of
the minister, and her father, who sup
piled Balschaneff with money. Upon
learning of the arrest of his fiance
Balschaneff attempted to commit sui
eide
