Donna Rosalia Queyedo was. perhaps
at that date IL; she was OF the purest
Castilian type, fairly tall her face oval
and very white; her hair. eyebrows
and long lashes black. Her eyes were
neither large nor small. and OF melt
ing blackness which allures. Words
cannot paint her portrait; she fasci-
mated in an innocent way, and her
voice was low and sweet. The men
all gazed at her. but with worshipful
eyes. as " they looked upon a saint.
The young men would follow her, max
ing many pretexts to come near with
out giving her annoyance. She must
have known OF their admiration. but 1t
made no visible impression on her;
she was unlike the other girls. They

NEW YORK f|NANCIER
DISCUSSES BANKING

NEW YORK, Dec. 1.-THE Finan-
cier says this week: The statement of
the New York clearing house banks
for the current week is not worthy as
marking continuance of loan iquida-
ton and deposit shrinkage, both oper-
ating to increase the surplus reserve
without the addition of new cash. The
estimated movement of money last
week showed a loss Of little, if any
cash, but the statement of averages re-
vealed a decrease of almost 100000.
Loans contracted $22,031, 700, an un-
usual figure, and deposits fell off $21,-
22,500. The loss in the latter, OF
course, made the requirements of cash
which the banks hold as reserve on
deposits much smaller, and this ex-
plains the increase of $5,181, ,425 in ex-
cess reserve, that item now standing
at 1885, ,625, the highest reached since
the closing of October. In the period
named, however, specie and legals held
by the banks have decreased about
$2O, ,000, 900, while surplus reserves have
fallen off only $2,250,000 This rather
anomalous movement is accounted for
by the decrease of sos, 100000 of de-
posits and $82,000,000 in loans.
Just what portion Of these decreases
is 10 be accounted for by actual liqui-
dation and what portion by shifting of
but that a large percentage is to be at
tributed to such shifting is not to be
denied, particularly since the stock
market has been active during much of
the time. In the current statement it
is noticeable that operations of the
larger banks go to make up many of
the more important decreases. Preba-
bly, liquidation In the market will be
urged as a reason for the falling off
of totals, but other forces must have
been at work also.
1t is an interesting commentary on
the situation to note that the deposits
of the clearing house banks are now
lower than at any time within eight
m ontfls. while not since June 25 last,
or roughly, in six months, have loans
been as small as reported now. This
indicates either that that heavy bor-
rowings earlier in the season have
been liquidated or transferred to other
institutions. The more recent stock
market activity remains on the face of
this showing almost wholly unaccount-
ed for, at least so far as loan require
ments are concerned. The New York
banks have been gaining cash steadily
from the interior for a number of
weeks, and there Is nothing that fore
shadows change in this respect.

ANALYzES CHINAISM
Chenq Lao Chun On His Coun.
try's Policy

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. IT, Sir
Cheng Lao Chun, Chinese minister to
the United States, tonight addressed
the American Society of Political and
Social Science on "China's Traditional
Policy" He said:
For 1900 years China has not
sweryed an iota from pursuing a
be put down to the fact that all the
men who have played a prominent part
in China's affairs have invariably been
true followers of Confucius. The re-
suit is that in China the saying the
pen is nightier than the sword is not
a high sounding boast, but an active
principle Of government. 1t is the
scholar that is today the ruler of the
empire. The soldier holds low place.
This subordination of the fighter to
the thinker is recognized throughout
the length and breadth of the land.
'It may be urged that the Chinese
people have brought much unnecessary
sufferings upon themselves by their
firm adherence to the principles of
peace It is true that they have left
their country practically exposed to
foreign invasions. They maintain no
effective army; they have no battle
ships. These weaknesses are patent to
ALL But China's strength does not lie
so near the surface. Perhaps the
severest crisis which the nation has
gone through was in the thirteenth
century, when the Mongols under Geng-
his Khan, after carrying fire and sword
into the heart of Europe, swept over
into Manchuria. From this staggering
blow 1t recovered with astonishing
rapidfty. This wonderful recuperative
power must be sought in the sterling
character of the people themselves.
They may be wanting in those SNOWY
qualities of mind and body which the
people of the West admire and culti-
vate, but they are endowed to an emil
nent degree with those hardy virtues
which tell most in the struggle for
existence, namely, patience, industry
and thrift.
with the view OF reducing the pos
sibility of war as much as possible,
arbitration is the method now best
recommended for the settlement of in
ternational disputes. This is step In
the right direction. But as long as
nations are armed to the teeth there
is always strong temptation to test
the effectiveness of the weapons they
possess. AS long as there is powder in
the magazine there is always danger
of an explosion from a flying spark.
The day, however, seems to be still
far distant when the nations of the
earth will agree on general disarma-
n1ent But until this consummation is
reached the peace of the world can
never be absolutely sure"
