PARIS GREEDY
FOR MORE GOLD
Abnormal Movement of the Vel

\ nations Of Odd Situation.

New York. Nov. 6-Recent developments
In the foreign exchange situation have
been Of more h usual interest. The
rapid change from the gold import to the
gold export point while not unprecedented
was exceptional. and on this occasion has
aroused a great deal Of interest in ex-
change circles.
Normally this is the season at which we
import gold, but this year, instead OF re-
ceiving help from Europe. we are helping
it by supplying 1t with gold which 1t Is
anxious to secure. though just for
purpose is not yet altogether clear. There
has been much. theorizing about the seem
1ngiy abnormal demand for gold in Paris
and Berlin. Friday Berlin secured 800

on the gold while in transit.
The most generally accepted explanation
of the situation in Berlin and Paris Is
that preparations are being made for fur
Their accommodations to Russia. either
through the purchase Of bonds or in the
form of commercial advances. In the
case of Berlin 1t !s said that the demand
that German merchants have been giving

WOMAN'S HAND IS BEING

REPUBLIC SPECIAL
New York, Nov. Ito regain the use of
her right ha1d Miss Lucy o'Hara is hav-
ing it baked In 300 degrees of heat for
half an hour every other day in St. Vim
cents Hospital. Owing to the absence of
moisture in the hight temperature the
tissues are able to Withstand the high
caloric and the patient, although she
WINGED at first under the ordeal, is able
to undergo the treatment with little dis
comfort.
She is about to win a years battle for
the restoration of a member which twice
was to ave been removed. She has reso-
lutely refused to consent to an amputa-
ton, and the physicians at the hospital
say 1t will now be u question: of only a
few weeks before her hand is almost il
not quite as good as 1t ever was.
Miss O'Hara. who lives in Scranton, Pa,
contracted septicaemia a year 6 through
picking her hand while washing clothes.
The hand swelled to twice its natural size
n severaI operations were necessary,
Surgeons believed the only means of saw
ing her life was by removing the hand.
The poison was thrown out of the system
finally and the hand WAS left s%hrunken.
Miss OHara, had practically no control
over It.
She was advised by her physician to go
to st. Vincent's Hospital. where the bak-
ing process is being successfully used for
rheumatism. The hand is laid in a steam
jacket and the temperature is gradually
raised. Every day the member is mas
saged for an hour and every week the pa
tent is put under the influence of an
anaesthetic. the fingers are drawn out
n the bones n muscles subjected to a
~kneading process.

DOG SAVES cHILD's LIFE.
Animal Snatches Boy From
Death Under Car.

REPUBLIC SPECIAL.
Denver. Nov. 5.-Dumb-brute faithful
ness was demonstrated when a bulldog
owned by William corwin saved the life
of the mans 2-year-oId son. Willie.
The little fellow was playing in the
street in the vicinity of his home in Ber-
kelley. A car came bowling along Just as
the little fellow started to cross the thor
o%Ughfare.
He stumbled and fell, and to onIookers it
seemed that he could not possibly avoid
being run over. Then the dog shot out
from the sidewalk like a fash. grabbed
the trousers Of the little fellow in his
teeth and dragged him to safety. as the
motorman was using all his efforts to
check the speed of his car.
The little fellows rousers were literally
torn from his body by the teeth of the
dog, but the faithful canine succeeded in
dragging its infantile master to safety
before the garment v way.
The near approach TO death of the baby
was witnessed by Policeman Kersten and
several others, but it all happened so
quickly that no one but the dog was able
to do a thing toward saving the life of
the little fellow. Mr.. Corwin Is a miner
and has lived in Berkeley several years.

Philadelphia. Nov. Edward Henry,

pital. Four other persons were in the
house when the explosion occurred and
narrowly escaped with their lives. 1t is
not known exactly how the fire occurred,
as the other inmates OF the house were
sleeping at the time. It Is, thought. how
ever, that Henry accidentally upset the
lamp as he was about to retire.
He was rescued from hi burning house
by Charles Lopez n an unknown man,
who found him in the kitchen unconscious
and horribly burned. Henry's wife es-
capped by jumping from the second-story
window. Elizabeth williams, aged Z
years. was rescued by another unknown
man. who rushed through the smoke and
flames and dropped her from the third
story window to the pavement. where she
was caught by two men. William Casey
and Mary Williams also made their es-

STERLING LOW IN FRANCE.

At the bottom OF the present gold ship
ments is the relative ease in money here
as compared with the rates In Europe. To
explain satisfactorily the fact tina gold is
going now instead Of returning It is neces-
sary to assign the real reasons for our
money markets ease at a time when crop
demands usually cause more or less strin-

the gold movement h the question If
imports and export and the balance of

true, although admittedly at the moment
one OF the reasons for the present high
rates of exchange Is the fact that cotton,
which Is the largest single source of ex-
change at this season. is being held back
in large quantities in expectation OF high
er prices for the staple. This, of course,
restricts the supply Of cotton bills, and is
an influence that makes for higher prices
