with equal emphasis Mr.. Payn denied
that he ever received, directly or indi-

the opinion that neither President Burn

broken. In that year 1856 per cent. was
paid.
The greater part OF yesterdays offer
ings came from out Of town banks
through Their local correspondents. 4
great many inliyidHals and commercial
houses also loaned through their banks.
Russell Sage, through his representa-
tive, was reported to have loaned So.
100000 at so 70 100 per cent. Unusual
discrimination was shown by the banks
nj the collateral accepted BY them for
loans. BY noon the demand seemed
TO have been largely supplied, but the
rate still hung around 80 per cent.
The demand started within IS minu-
ties after the opening Of business. As
a rule, nothing is said in money until
after IL o'clock. Yesterday d loan Of
100000 was made early at 30 per cent.
This looked Ike 40 effort to keep the
rate down.
Immediately afterward bids were rals-
cd rapidly at 10 per cent. between quo
tations. A request for accommodations
Fac 40 per cent. brought no offerings.
Then the bid was raised % SO, with no
better results The next was 60, AZ
which figure a second loan was made,
one OF 100000 No more money was
offered at that rate The third loan was
made at 70, and soon afterwards loans
made az IS.

money from brokers az a result OF heavy

rate climbed rapidly to so 80 and 100
per cent, and shortIy before 1880
o'clock d loan 81 100000 at l25 per
cent. was reported.
Although brokers were compelled TO
pay tie highest prices IN years for cash
with which to carry their stocks, there
WAS little excitement over the situation.

themselves several months ago with time

Hurry

Hurry, like a cyclone, whirls
you along at a rate that
quickly exhausts your energy,
and leaves you a nerveless,

Worry accomplishes the

It drags you through the dark,
gloomy tunnel of forbodings,
wrecks your nerves and breaks
down the constitution.
Then don't hurry; don't
worry. But you will; and
