 There is still, however a difference of more than s13000,Oo0 between the total gain for the past four weeks as indicated by the estimates, and the increase record ed by the bank statement shows the dif- ference may possibly be corrected in the returns of later weeks. The deposits were increased $22.273so 800. and the required re- serve was thereby augmented by s5.56S, ,450, deducting which from the gain In cash reserve leaves $6.046,250 as the increase in surplus reserve of s50.609 600.

SAVED s1ooo.
Pierpont Morgan Works Clever Trick
 on JeWeIer.

From the New York American
 J. Pierpont Morgan has a new scarf pin. It is a pearl. Through a scheme of high financing MT. Morgan saved 5000 in purchasing it. The story of that purcahse is being told on Wall street today with as mucn enthusiasm as if the article that figured in the deal had been whole railroad sys- tenn.
 The pearl was sent to Mir Morgan by jewelry firm which had just ob- tained it. With it was enclosed a note stating that he might have it for $5000.
 Just at this stage of the affair high finance began showing it's hand. Mir. Morgan liked the pearl immensely, but he hesitated about paying 5000. So he had one of his clerks make out two checks-one for $4000 and the other for $50O0. The s5000 check was wrap ped up with the pearl. The other check was enclosed in a note which stated that If the jeweler did not care to accept $40v0 he could return the check.
 No mention was made of the $5000 check. and the owner of the pearl did
The Birmingham age-herald., 1904-07-24

not wait to open the package and in- spect his prize. Instead he sent 1t back to Wall street.
 A couple of days later MT. Morgan met the jeweler
 We lost money by that transac- tion' complained the latter.
 Then MT Morgan told him about the s5000 check.
 T can understand now" said the dealer in gems, how you have earned your place as the leading financier of the world.

Carpet Baggers Blamed.

Years ago when the rich farming sec tion of the state became infested with fortune seekers from the north. better known as carpet baggers'' many of these negroes were led off from their ac- customed habits by alluring promises of office and social equality with the whites and then trouble began for the property owners. These human vultures partially succeeded in eorralling enough of the negroes to make their votes factor in local elections and the leading citizens of the community were then called upon to adopt drastic measures for the mainten- ance of virtue and intelligence Ballot box stuffing was found to be the only remedy and as 1t was considered the les- ser of two evils the practice prevailed as long as the security of the homes of the intelligent were endangered. As the
