PessimIst Talks.

The dyspeptie gave voice to his grouch- mess after this fashion: T know its mighty unpopular to predict evil when everybody is full of joy and confidence and things are booming. Nevertheless, in my opinion, the balloon has become inflated until 1t is near the bursting point. I have noticed that real estate speculation Is invariably the last stage of a grand national boom and today you will find the real estate gambling spirit rampant in nearly every large city in the country. It is worse right here in New York than any place else. The thing is being overdone everywhere and there must be a general and overwhelming re- action. It may not come this year, and l don't think 1t will, but wise men will soon be preparing themselves against stormy weather"

"The AuId Brig O Doon."

From the Providence Journal.
 Lord Rosebery has done we'll to pro- test against the proposed demolition of the Brig of Ayr. The Town Council of Ayr calls 1t rebuilding. But as Lord Rose bery says, the resources of engineering should be adequate to preserve q structure which is almost sacred. Indeed, were there no sentiment left for Burns in the land he did so much to celebrate. the accus- toned canniness of the Scot should suf- fee to save landmark that is yearly coined into good money.

WEEKLY AVERAGES
 OF CLEARING HOUSE
INCREASE IS SHOWN IN THE SUR- PLUS RESERVE IN SPITE OF PREVIOUS CONTINUOUS DE- CREASE IN THIS ITEM.

New York, September 2S.-The state- ment of averages of the clearing house banks of this city for this week follow:
 Loans. $1,076. .440.60 decrease. $9,sS1, 300
 Deposits. $1, ,195. 800; decrease, $1s,157.- 4OO
 Circulation, s5s.712.sOO; increase, s15.sOO
 Legal tenders. s75.579,sOo; decrease. ssss,- 800
 Specie, $20o. .454, 400; decrease. s1,720,s0O.
 Reserve, $276,034 600; decrease, s2.6S9,60.
 Reserve required, s27O. ss,s5O; decrease, Ss.2S9. $50.
 Surplus, $52S5,o ,o50; increase, s599. .75o.
 Ex. United States deposits. s7.sss.s5O; increase, $625,125.
 New York, September 2S.-The Financier this week says:
 The most notable feature of the state ment of the New York Associated banks last week was an increase in the surplus reserve after a continuous decrease in this item since August 5, and these, too, notwithstanding there was cash loss last week of two and three-fourth mil- lions. This more favorable condition of the bank so far as the surplus was con- cerned was due as has been the case in previous weeks, to a further contraction in loans and consequently in deposits and reserve requirement. It is noteworthy that the decrease in loans since August has amounted to s69, ,723, 100 the loss of cash has been $36O65, ,750, and the increase in de- posits, $116,549 100: the cash reserve now standing at the lowest point of the year. Loans were contracted last week by $9,- 3S1 300 and most likely this was the re- suit of liquidation of speculative accounts of the stock market, for such a move ment was actively In progress during the greater part of the week. The cash loan was $2,6S9600 which amount added ma terially to the preliminary estimates that were based upon the traceable movements of money; the reason for the discrep- ancy between the estimates and the bank | figures are incapable of explanation. De- l posits were reduced S13157,400 which amount was greater by s1,OS6,50O than the decrease in loans and the loss of cash therefore the statement failed to prove posit was decreased by $32S0,350 deduct l ing from which the loss of cash lefi l $599,7 ,750 as the increase in surplus reserve 1 to $5.235 ,050 Computed on the basis of de- posits, less those of sS,65S. 400 public funds l the surplus is $7. .399, $50. The daily averag, of bank clearing during the week wa, 1 s266 GOO GOO against S279 900 900, the previous week. The exchanges on Saturday reflect l ing Fridays business were S297, TOO. 194 Comparison of loans of national banks show that eight institutions decreased this item by nineteenth and two-thirt millions net, and the greatest contrac tons were by four of the larger banks

AERALp coRaEsPoNpENTs.

A number Of communications, let.
tiers giving items from certain parts
OF the county, we're recently received
by the Herald. The press name OF
regular correspondents was attached.
II so happened that the editor was &C.
quainted with the handwriting OF the
correspondent whose name was used
and knew that tho letters we're not
genuine. A couple OF tho items were
little of color, and Suspecting mis-.
chief, the editor took means OF verify.
ing tho letter and It's authorship. The
regular correspondent had not written
and denied the authenticity OF some Of
the news sent.
Correspondents should always sigE
their own name TO all letters. This
protects the correspondent as well az
the once and makes II impossible for
designing mischietmakers TO cause
trouble.
