GUARDING GHOSTS v1cruAIs.
Chinese Semi-Annual Banquets Pro-
tected From Tramps.

No longer will the willy tramp enjoy
free lunch from the feast prepared for
the spirits of dead Cinnamon. The Ce-
lestials. who, twice year, according
to their belief and custom, place roast
pork, roast duck and variety of side
dishes upon the graves OF their dead
that each spirit may eat in plenty when
1t reyisits the earth. have long feared
that the good things are devoured By
the living.
II was discovered that after the food
was left upon the graves vagrants made
their way into the cemetery and devour-
ed the good things before the spirits,
got taste.
So when the delegation from China
town carried the highly seasoned edi.
bles to the spirits in Lebanon Park Gem
etery, Nineteenth Street and Passyunk
Avenue yesterday they tarried quite q I;
while that the spirits might eat first,
and then brought the good things away
with them again.
According to Chinese calendar this
Is the time OF the Using Ming-pure and
resplencent-when spirits OF the dead
are permitted to revisit the earth. The
festival Is called Shen You Ye, and falls I
in the seventh month. To be exact, the
festival should be celebrated on July J,
Chinese reckoning. but 1t is customary !
with Philadelphia Cinnamon to celebrate
on Sunday near that date.
A score Of carriages. In which wers
Cinnamon conveying edibles. passed
down Broad Street and over Passyunk
Avenue to the cemetery yesterday af-
ternoon through the drenching rain. At
the graves yards Of paper prayers were
burned, ard the high priest made strange
to drive away the bad
spirits.-Philadelphia North American.

HENRY CLBWS' LETTER
ON BUSINESS OUTLOOK
Interior Currency Demands
Will Be Larger Than Usual.
SOME RELIEF IN PROSPECT
Treasury's Ability to Aid Money Mar
ket Somewhat Limited-Gold Already
on Its Way From Many Places Gre
ates an Easy Feeling.

Henry Clews, in his weekly letter o.
the financial and business outlook, say
of the monetary situation:
1t is quite certain that interior cur
rency demands will be much larger thai
usual, owing to the better crops and ac
tiyity of business. Very likely also th'
return movement of currency will be de
layed longer than ordinary, in which
case the local money market will receiv,
no assistance from the interior until the
close OF the year.
Partial relief is now in prospec
through gold imports and Secretary
Shaw's efforts to Offset Treasury absorp-
tions. The Treasury's ability to relieve
the money market is somewhat limited
and partially Offset by increasing Gus
toms receipts.
Gold Imports Afford Relief.
For some time past 1t has been evil
dent that the principal source of relic:
to the local money market would be in
gold imports Gold is already coming
from Austria, the TransvaaI and the
klondike in increasing sums, and very
shortly Europe will be obliged to give
way to American demands. AS previous
ly intimated In these advices, Paris will,
be the most likely point OF assistance,

direction must soon be facilitated by in
creased offerings of cotton and grain
bills; and should Europe later on show
more disposition to buy American Sc
curities, which is not beyond probable
tiles. the problem of settling our grow
Ing Indebtedness in Europe would be
much more easily solved.
Merely Temporary Loss.
Augusts exports showed a loss of
S13,o00.O00 compared with last year, due
to shrinkage in shipments of agricul-
tural products. while imports increased
over s5,5O0,o00, the result of urgent
trade requirements at home.
Such returns would be regarded with
concern only it is we'll understood that
the loss in grain exports was merely
temporary and that In the coming sea-
son our agricultural shipments are like
ly to run between s75, ,000, coo to s100,-
100000 in excess OF the last fiscal year.
Our leading bankers are keeping a close
watch upon international trade. and
financial movements, and much OF theirI
present confidence In the future Is un-
based upon the probability
of our paying a vefy large proportion of
our foreign Indebtedness in products
In the last twelve months there has been
a shrinkage in corn exports alone of
SCI 900. 600, which will not be repeated
this year.
Aside from the monetary situation the
outlook is very satisfactory. Railroad

shows increasing activity; the iron

ervation to gather In $4,000 or govern
ment money with which 10 pay the
indians for leases. He returns later to
take back $4,000 In settlement for lands
to be thrown open for settlement. The
major has detail Of troopers from the
Fourteenth cavalry at Price TO escort
him back to the agency; and on his
next trip he will have pretty much the
entire cavalry command out on account
Of the large amount of money In his
possession Skirmishers vii be de-
ployed around the treasure wagon. so
that any attempt at holding up the out
At is likely to result dlsastrously to

f and G companies of the Twelfth in
fantry, and the one troop OF the Four
.eenih cavalry, under Capt. Yates, with
Mai Foster Of the Twelfth Infantry In
command Of the post. Mai. Foster Is q
great disciplnaiian and Keeps his com
mand constantly ready for summons to

and Mai, Myton understands that two
troops OF the Ninth cavalry are TO be
