It IS be- lieved. also. that out -of-town institu- tions have made loans during the week in displacement~o the New York bank loans. Loans by local trust companies are believed to have played small part in the results and the recent lend- ing of foreign funds has also come to a stop. The stock market has indi- but nothing like the figure reported in the bank statement.

RUssIA's LABOR TROUBLE.
St. Petersburg Printers May Go on . 

St. Petersburg, Oct. 14.-The storm center of political and labor agitation may next week be transferred from Moscow to St. Petersburg, where the printers and the employees of several large establishments are now debating the question of a strike.
 A strike of printers has been de- clared in the Government of Saratiff and no newspapers are being printed.
 A bomb was thrown today. but there were no fatalities.
 The printers of St. Petersburg will hold a general assembly tomorrow at which delegates from Moscow will be present. It will be determined by the assembly whether a strike shall be called. The employees of the big Baltic and Ncvsky sap yards are on the verge of walkout. A majority of the St. Petersburg workmen are apparently desireus of continuing work, but if a strike is declared, they are apt to be forced, through sympathy or intimida- tion, to join it.
 Work has been resumed in a number of factories in Moscow and others will reopen on Monday.
