Holiday in st. Petersburg.
This is the patron saint day Of the
heir to the throne as we'll as the fiftieth
anniversary of the bombardment and
siege of Sebastopol, and it had been
hoped to signalize it by the announce
ment of victory for Kuropatkin and
at the same time announce the definite
fleet, which is now believed to be on
its long voyage. But the bad news from
the theater of war has caused mis-
carriage Of all the plans and only the
ghost Of holiday remained. The city
Is decorated with flags, but in view Of
the tremendous loss of life below Muk-
den, especially in Gen. Meyendorff's
First corps, which is from ST Peters
burg and its neighborhood, and which
sustained the brunt of the fighting at
the Russian center, the people have no
heart for merry-making. Besides the
day was cold and dreary. The en-
peror marked the day by appointing
his youthful heir chief of the cadet
corps, and by ukase pensioning the
survivors, widows and orphans of the
Turkish-R Russian war and promoting all
the retired captains of the Turkish Rus
sian war to the rank Of lieutenant
colonies. In the afternoon the crowds
displayed more buoyancy on the
strength Of special dispatches printed in
the afternoon papers heralding the
Russian victory at Lone Tree hill and
declaring that the Russian army Is adj
vancing and capturing many guns.

Des Moines, Ia, Oct. 1.-THE bank
clearings indicate the volume of BUSH
ness done in every city and its con-
tiguous territory. There is no better in
dex to the commercial activity of any
section of the country The prosperity
of Iowa, which has been shown to have
at present bank deposits averaging
about $110 per capita, is making a first
rate showing in the increase of business
in her capital city, as shown by the bank
clearings. During week in October
gain of $1,623,249 was made over the
same week last year. The gain is still
going on and promises to increase in
ratio. Bankers say that this increase
is not due to large transactions, but to
steady increase in small amounts,
showing widespread activity. The ex-
cellent crop prospects and the high
prices of the small grain already mar
keted are strong factors in this increase
in business, which is bound to continue
through the winter, so the bankers and
leading business men say. The bank
clearings in Des Moines for the first
nine months of the year compared with
the same period in 1903 are as follows:
