oSGooD'S VIEW OF
FINANCIAL SITUATION.

Of exceptional interest at the pres
ent time is statement given out By
John C. Osgood in Denver yesterday
dealing with the financial disturbances
in the East. He declared that the
trouble in New York would cause more
or less of a business recession all
through the country, but at the same
time expressed the opinion that the
general tone of business is healthy.
The Knickerbocker Trust company,
he added, is entirely solvent and the
depositors will be paid in full. This
is the concern whose suspension has
brought about the temporary cessation
of work at the plants of, the Central
Colorado Power company in Colorado.
81 was in New York just week
ago." said Mr.. Osgood. "There was
good deal of uneasiness at that tilne
and sort of half expressed feeling ex
listed that some of the syndicate bank
ing interests were menace in a way to
the general situation. There was also
letllnS lndt thCiO "SiS a b S'he h''&H-
undigested securities in that hands of
the trust companies, instead of the
banks, that could not be turned into
money in case of an emergency.
"At no time during the entire pan
| ickv period since March was there ever
any question as to the solidity and SOL
yencv of the Knickerbocker Trust com
pany. No gossip had ever used its
name My own feeling when the clean
up of the syndicate banks was made
and Morse, Heinze and Thomas were
forced out, was that the entire financial
situation was improved and that the
whole outlook was better.

Recession of Activity
Expected in Country.

Expected IN CountIy.
81 do not believe, however, that
it is possible for the country to escape
considerable recession in general
business activity. This may continue
through the period of anxiety covered
by the coming presidential election,
but that prosperous condition OF the
farming communities and people OF
moderate means is so different from
what it has been in past periods OF
business depression that l look for a
more speedy recovery.
"My personal knowledge of the
condition of the banks and business
houses in Colorado and the West leads
me to believe that there is no serious
cause for anxiety or misapprehension.
1 do anticipate, however, that there
will be recession in business, which
will necessarily throw a good many
men out of employment. l think the
present is time for conservatism Ill
all lines of business and labor activi
ties.'
Increase in the Price of Coal.
When asked concerning the present
price of coal, Mr.. Osgood undertook to
justify present prices. He has for
wears been connected with coal mining
and is a heavy stockholder in the Vic
tor Fuel company.
"The Victor Fuel company, in which
I am interested,' he said, markets
very little of its coal in Denver, and
am not personally informed of all the
details of the Denver coal situation.
The scarcity of coal is almost world
wide. The reasons for the scarcity are
various, but in the United States it is
largely due to shortage of labor,
which is now being rapidly overcome
by the recession in general business
activity, particularly in the copper in
dustry. The situation has been some
what aggravated by the inability OF
the railroads to furnish an ample sup
ply of cars to move coal promptly. The

Wonen's Clubs
EbelI Program

An interpretative reading of Haw-
thorne's Scarlet Letter" was given be-
fore the Ebell yesterday afternoon oy
Mrs. Merrill Moore Grigg.
Holding her audience by the magic of
her personality and the music of voice
responsive to every change of feeling,
Mrs. Grigg gave an Interpretation OF
Hawthornes masterpiece that moved her
audience to that best of all applause
absorbed attention. The heartbreak OF
the immortal story, the punishment or
the discovered sinner and that of the
other who, walking unsupported among
his fellows, hugged to his breast day and
night his secret scourge; the character
delineation, the cumulative interest that
grips the heart as the tale grows toward
the denouement-all these were rarely
well portrayed by the reader. There was
a large audience and Mrs. Grigg was
rendered an informal reception at the
close of the afternoon.

Women,s Press Club

There was a large attendance yester-
day at the monthly luncheon of the Wo-
mems Press club, held in the private
dining room at the Westminster.
Mrs. George A. Berry, president of the
club, presided at the brief business meet
ing that preceded the program.
Mrs. Mary Holland Kinkaid presented
the program, reading by request paper
on ''The Manners of American Women"
which she gave short time ago before
the Friday Morning club. Mrs. Kinkaid
is satirist, albeit gentle one, and
her facetious handling of the pretentions
of that erstwhile American, Henry
James, and his censure of the manners
of American women, the hospitality of
many of whom he has enjoyed, both in
this country and abroad, met with the
same appreciation yesterday that was
accorded by the Friday Morning club
women.

The Story of q Medicine.

It's name-n Golden Medical DiscoveryA
was suggested by one of its most import
ant and valuable ingredients = Golden
Seal root.
Nearly forty years ago, DR.. Pierce dis
covered that he could, by the use of pure,
triple-refned glycerine, aided by cer-
tain degree of constantly maintained
heat and with the aid of apparatus and
appliances designed for that purpose, ex-
tract from our most valuable native me-
dicinal roots their curative properties
much better than by the use OF alcohol,
SO generally employed. So the now world
famed UGolden Medical Discovery" for
the cure of weak stomach, Indigestion, or
dyspepsia. torpid liver, or biliousness and
kindred arrangements was first made, as
II. ever. SINCE has bSen, without particle

dorsement from the leading medical ex-.
NedtcG who recomWand4 them as the very

SGQldeQ MedlcaC CpiScQYerYs rs adYised.
A little book OF these endorsements haS
been compiled by DIR. R. V. Pierce, Of
Buffalo, N. Y, and will be mailed free to
any one, asking same by postal card, or
letter addressed to the Doctor as above.
From these endorsements, copied from
standard medical books of all the differ
emit schools of practice, 1t will be found
that the ingredients composing the Gold

only for the cure of the above mentioned
diseases, but also for the cure of all ca
tarrhaJ, bronchial and throat affections.
accompanied with catarrhal discharges,
hoarseness, sore throat, lingering, or
hang-on-coughs, and all those wasting
affections which, II not promptly and
properly treated are liable to Terminals

covery in time and persevere in its use
until you give It fair trial and 1t is not
likely to disappoint. Too much must not

Mental Dyspepsia

The attention of western program COM
mittees is respectfully called to the fol-
lowing program of a prominent eastern
club, the members of which listened In
one afternoon to papers on the following
subjects Exploration, art, education.
drama, music, aeronautics and science,
to which was added a musical program.
and the afternoon closed with discus
sion of the question. Are We Deriving
Benefit from Women's Clubs?'
To the average club woman the above
assortment spells mental indigestion. One
can but wonder what sort of gray mat
ter those club women boast, and if 1t is
possible for any finite mind to assimilate
such spread" In the newspaper re-
port the program was spoken of as de
lightful."
