We'll, we think if she should dream about that sec tion of the city she would soon wake up and shout NO SlR-REE; let the name stay. but demand new street to run from Dublin across lots and connect with East Main street just west of John D.'s pond. Say. would mt that be quite handy for people to catch a car if they were coming to the center tor to 42 East Main streetl, or if you were delivering goods from East Main street to- ward the Abrigador? Wouldn't it be short cut instead of going as you must at the present time? But we are not laying out streets; it's Alice we wish to talk about. We will com mence "Wednesday morning and give each purchaser of tea or coffee only one of our souvenirs, and continue until Saturday night.

THE LONDON MARKET.

LONDON, Oct 31.-The announcement
Of the higher bank rate today put an end
to the suspense which had been hanging
over the stock exchange for some days
and except in the case of consols was the
signal for a general Improvement. Con-
soils after being S2A receded to 50 3-16.
Americans at noon stood two to six points
above yesterdays closing prices, this being
more than a point over parity. Union Pa
clhc and Chicago, Milwaukee and st. Paul
led the rally. Coppers were In good de-
mand and Kaffirs ruled firm.
Several small failures of brokers were
announced this morning, but they had no
effect on the market, which under the in
huence of the overnight rally in New
York and the belief that the monetary
outlook wag more satisfactory had a greater
appearance of cheerfulness than for some
time past.
Before noon prices hardened to from 2
to 6 points higher than yesterday under
the lead OF Chicago, Milwaukee and st.
Paul and Union Pacific, while Canadian
Pacific and Grand Trunk recovered part
Of yesterdays setback. The buying
principally was in the nature of covering
operations. the uncertain American fnan-
cial outlook checking fresh business. The
receipt of the New York opening prices
caused a temporary depression, but new
York bought later and the market closed
strong at the best prices of the day.
The sum of $4,000 pounds in American
eagles was taken from the Bank OF Eng
land today for shipment to America.
The brokers. whose failures were an.
bounced today, were Schaap u Co. ano
Fred CHANCELLOR, members of the stock ex-
change. The failures had no effect on the
market.

BANK PRESIDENTS FAVOR
CURRENCY INCREASE.
Those of Philadelphia Institutions In
dorse Comptroller Ridgely's Plan.
TOO Many Cooks Says One.

PHILADELPHIA. Oct. S1-Presidents
Of national banks in this city heartily in
dorse the plan of Comptroller Ridgely for
the increase of national bank circulation.
George II. Earle. president of two promi-
nent national banks in this city, n also
the head of three other Philadelphia fnan
cial institutions today said:
The trouble about all these matters is
that there are too many cooks Every
one has known for years that this country
needs a more elastic currency, but each
doctor insists Upon his own remedy, and SC
the country from time to time suffers, just
as it does now. 1t Is the part of patriot
ism. therefore, to accept the comptroller's
program and do something, instead Of con-
tinuing to try to prove that each one of
us is a good deal wiser than all the rest,
for that always ends in nothing. 1t is
discreditable to us as a nation that money
should ever command 100 per cent, and il
is absolutely unnecessary. Let us get to-
cether and act"

IRON AND STEEL TRADE
CONDITIONS STRONG.
Financial FURRY Has Checked ColIec-
lions Somewhat, but No other
Bad Effects Noticeable.

CLEVELAND, o., Oct. 31-The Iron
Trade Review in its issue of today says:
There is general complaint that the con-
fused financial conditions of the past ten
days. with the consequent stringency of the
money market, have made themselves felt
very strongly In the matter of collections,
these having been extremely light since
the outbreak of serious trouble That the
position of the iron trade, however, is
still very strong is evidenced by the little
concern given the failure during the crisis
of the Westinghouse companies, the South
ern Steel Company and the Atha Steel
Casting Company. 1t is felt that, In the
hands of receivers and free from the
pressing claims of creditors, they will be
able to work out in good shape. The clos
ing of the Columbus plant Of the United
States Steel Corporation, consisting OF two
furnaces and a sheet bar mill, Is merely
the first recession movement of this In
terest. The Columbus plant, however, is
a high-tlde institution and has been oper-
ated only when business was most active,
with occasional lapses during slack times.
The great Edgar Thomso plant near
Pittsburg is working on short time. The
pig iron market is very quiet and tncreaesu
weakness Is shown In the southern
