office in Berlin. This, however, is not
done at the branches like Hamburg and
Bremen, in unlimited amounts, since this
would impose on the bank the necessity
of paying transportation charges thither
from Berlin"
The Imperial Bank views with consider
able apprehension the fact that the open
market discount rate in London today ex-
ceeded the Bank of England's rate. giving
grounds for fear of a further advance in
the latter banks rate. This would neces-
state again marking up the Berlin rate.
and President Koch fears that In that case
an additional one-half per cent. would
not be sufficient but that a full l per cent.
would be necessary making the rate 71s
per cent, which would be higher than the
Imperial Bank has ever placed 1t.
A considerable sum in gold was taken
from the Imperial Bank today for export
to the United States. and further with
are regarded as probable. The Of
f1clals Of the bank are watching the Amer
lean situation with much interest and some
anxiety, but they are not disposed to at
tribute the present disturbance of the Ger
man money market wholly to the Ameri-
can situation. For example, French ex-
change here is now above the gold point,
which apparently Is not due to the Amer
lean demand for gold, but probably to I'M
speculations in copper and KAT
frs at Paris.

A PEACEFUL BEE.

Beehives on every front porch. giving
each family a supply of delicious honey
close at hand, while at the same time the
bees will inculcate their lesson of indus
try, are a possibility, for the Department
of Agriculture has succeeded in import
ing from abroad what may be termed a
peaceful bee, which finds our tickle climate
to its liking.
The Is known as the eau
casian bee. The name is derived from its
native locality, and is emphasized by
habits of life which rank it distinctly as
the white mans bee. 1t Is civilized, dlgni-
fed and high-toned. 1t PUSHES with reluc-
tance into anything that smacks of war;
fare, having, in place of the belligerent
instincts of Others of its class, a predis-
position to arbitration.
1t must not be Inferred, however, that
the Caucasian bee has no sting Mt all.
Physically it is constituted much as are
other bees, and has an equal capacity for
infiicting a wound, but its weapon is
sheathed in peace and used only in cases
OF extreme emergency.
There is a truly stingless bee, which is
a Latin-American. but which has a strong
indisposition to work, and when tempo
rary fits of industry seize It its labors are
done in a half-hearted sort of way, and
without plan OF system. 1t will follow NO
architectural plan in storing honey, and
all efforts to cross 1t with its Caucasian
relative have been unsuccessful.

THE Up-ro-DATE FOOL KILLER.

The thought may or may not be original.
but I feel sure no one will deny its truth,
II / venture to remark that the automobile
appears to be quite putting the traditional
fool killer out of business: unfortunately
the selected culprit so often has innocent,
and otherwise fairly intelligent friends,
with him in the hour of his call!
People who drive automobiles at the rate
of forty miles the hour along unfamiliar
winding roads, or race heedlessly across
unguarded railroad crossings, are not to be
argued with; their trouble Is too deep
seated to reached so readily, aud those
of them tina survive the earliest indications
of af1iction, should be impounded in an
~asylum-not so much for their own snke as
for the safetyof their good-natured friends.
For that other class of scorchers, who
know better, hut like the excitement OF
whirling past crossroads and through way
side t~owns-there is just one cure for their
mania, |, e., jail: and it should be admin
istered on first symptoms in doses varying
with the mnlignancy of the disease.
/ urge upon all automobilists cooperation
in stopping outrageous disregard of others
and the illegal and dangerous speeding.
which may be seen in every direction.
/ urge also upon the manufacturers and
the dealers cessation of the present dis
count given chauffeurs which results in
| COLLISION between them and the garage and
costs the owner heavily. It is a black
graft which is harming the trade and rob
bling the owner.
Jail for reckless scorchers, and a special
tax on all automobile owners with which
to oil the roads-are the urgent needs of
the hour.-From Caspar Whitney's View

MORE LAB0RERS ENGAGED
FOR WORK ON CANAL.
7s3 Taken to Panama During Septem-
ber-Total Working Force
Now 90, s45.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 5.-During Sep
tember there were brought to the Isthmus
of Panama for work on canal construction
7Ss laborers, of whom 6s4 were Europeans
and 11e West Indians. These facts are
shown in the report of Colonel Goethals,
the chairman OF the commission. which
Ia published in the latest number OF the
canal Record, just received here. The
Panama Railroad force numbered 0,2SS'
making the total working force Oh tne
commission and railroad $3.50.
TIL Record contained an interesting re-
port by Ernest Howe, geologist or the
United States Geological Survey, who Went
to the Isthmus in search for raw material
suitable for use In the manufacture OF n
high grade of Portland cement. MT.
Howe reaches the conclusion that TINS
kind of cement equals the best grades
manufactured In the United States or Eu-
rope, and may be made on the 1sthmus
and at a cost not greater than $1.34 a bar
rel.
The Record chronicles brief details OF
two drowning accidents which occurred
on October is and 16. The first was at
San Pablo, when seven Martinique labor
ers were lost through the capsizing of a
ferryboat In crossing the Chagares River.
At least four. perhaps more, men were
drowned in the second incident on October
Is on the Cocoli River, when a boat con-
tanning several laborers of q survey party
working near Mirafiores, was capsized
shortly after leaving the bank of the river.

THE MIRACLE OF TREES.
Natures Marvellous Manifestation in
the Glorious Forests.

How wonderful are the treesl Each leaf,
with its varied outlines and delicate trac-
ing of stem and veins, and its soft, fresh,
glossy texture. is a marvel. To a man
who had been born and always lived on
some barren island 1t would seem a
veritable miracle, could ne be suddenly
transported to our zone when the trees
stood stark and bare against a wintry sky,
and watch the buds begin to swell and
then the tender vivid green of their first
outputting till they stood with
the full glory of summer foliage.
No wonder there were tree worshippers
in earlier days. 1t is easy to love them
now, and hard to tell which is most at
tractive and beautiful. Each one is an
objeetifed thought, expressing something.
In the oak 1t is sturdy strength. stout re-
s~istance to every wind that blows. In
the elm strength again, but yielding a
little more, and with more grace; In the
towering pine, aspiration and soft con-
verse with the wooing breeze. What end
less variety there is in form, in color and
In leaf and blossom, and how exquisltely
they blend when they are grouped to-
gether.
There is a peculiar fascination about a
real forest, with fits dim recesses of shade.
and its shy inhabitants. but to appreciate
any tree 1t should stand by itself, where
1t has full room to develop. Nipples. for
example, crowded together grow tall and
~spindling, with a tuft of foliage at the
spread its branches and drink in the
showers and sunshine, is one of the noblest
trees. that grow. rich In foliage and sym
metrical and pleasing In outline, and so 1t
is with them all. Plant trees wherever
you can IL there is only room for one,
care for and cherish them, and teach the
children to know and love them. They
will add charm and attraction to every
home, and are true and steadfast friends.

TW0-CENT FARE LAWS
INCREASE TRAVEL.
But the Cost of Carrying Passengers Is
Such That There Is No Profit
in the Business!

CHICAGO, Nov. 5.-Largely Increased
business, but with considerable loss In
revenue is shown by an investigation made
by George ]. Charlton. general passenger
agent Of the Chicago and Alton Railroad
into the effect of the two-cent fare laws.
Tariffs in compliance with these statutes
have been In effect for four months, and
a comparison with the receipts for the
same months Of last year show a loss OF
over $1,000 or the Alton.
THE increased number of passengers for
the long haul has been substantial" said
Mr.. Charlton. but there has been A net
loss of half a cent a mile In every ticket
for under the three-cent fare the long
haul averaged about two and one-half
cents a mile. On short hauls tickets there
have been large sales, but here the ROAD
has lost one-third of what would have
been made under the three-cent fare
At only a few ticket offices has the
Alton taken more money than It took for
the corresponding period last year. Those
which do show a gain are for the most
part the larger cities such as Chicago. 81.
Louis and Kansas City, yet In these the
gain in receipts appears small when com
pared with the number of tickets sold.
The small towns perhaps are more repre-
sentative since in the aggregate they or'gi-
nate more business. With hardly an ex-
ception these show an increase In the
number of passengers, but a falling oft in
receipts.

posted forthwith in their banks.
In the offices of Mann, Bill & ware,

ranged all the way from one or two
hundred dollars to FIVE or six thousand
dollars in Dashboard shoe boxes, in toy

NEW YORK, Nov. 5.-George Jay Gouid,
returning today on the steamer hroh-

the people of Europe the fine looks like
practical confscation-the wiping out OF

fear to put their money In the big con-

AS to the telegraph strike. Mr.. Gould
said:
THE strike was most ill-advised, as the
