Advances OH Warehouse Holdings.
Austin, Texas. - The financial
stringency has caused the Texas
banks to withdraw their support from
the Farmers Union cotton warehouse
movement, and it is announced by r.
A. Calvin, manager Of that depart
ment of the union, that no further
loans will be made on cotton stored
and held to boost the price.
This action on the part Of the
banks will probably cause several
hundred thousand bales Of cotton to
be put upon the market in the next
ten DAYS. Mr.. Calvin estimated that
more than 100000 bales are stored
in the warehouses.

until the principal securities were
selling anywhere from SIS to SIS below
their low prices Of the day before.
When the final announcement came
that the Knickerhccker Trust Com
pany had closed its doors the market
was verging on decentralization.
1t took just three hours to pay the
$4,000. 900 out and leave the Knick-
crbocker vaults almost bare of cash.
The company suspended payments be-
cause not a single financial institu-
ton in the city would aid it. The
reason for that "hands of" policy
was announced by>a representative OF
bankers who had been in conference
with J. P. Morgan and Secretary OF
the Treasury CortelyoL i'll the Union
Club. The banker said that the
Clearing House and J. P. Morgan,
having found that the surplus and
the capital of the company had been
impaired through bad management.
had refused to give assistance. The
Clearing House is willing to so to the
aid of any trust company that is in
need and is willing to throw out of its
directorate men who have been called
WreckerS.
The rapidity of developments. cul-
minating in the suspension OF h
Knickerbocker Trust Company, over
Swallowed the original causes Of the
financial cataclysm that precipitated
it. The Heinzes, the Thonascs. Chas.
w. Morse, Charles 7. Barney, were
but vaguely associated in the public
mind with existing conditions.
Mr.. Barney was naturally the most
interesting figure in the group of de-
posed presidents of financial lnstltu-
lions. His embarrassment was d.
rectly attributed to his extensive real
estate operations in connection with
Mr.. Morse and other promoters or
extensive land and building opera
tions.
On the Stock Exchange n failure
of importance. that Of Marcus Mayer
& Co., stock brokers, with liabilities
of $4,000, 900, was announced just

the day. In connection with 1t sensa-
tional rumors were circulated, con-
Meeting the collapse with the failure
of a customer intimately associated
with mining ventures and sporting
affairs to meet obligations incurred
by the firm for his account. This
could not be verified, and was gener-
ally classed with similar reports cur

on the financial standing and credit

"The Secretary of the Treasury is

SUCCESSFUL ELECTRICAL TEST
Oakland Street Cars Run by Power
Generated 40 Miles
Away. sa&

Electric power generated on the
Yuba river, - miles away, was used
in the operation of street cars in
Oakland, Cal, the other day. This is
said to be the longest transmission
of electric power in the world. The
power is generated by turbine wheels.
The cable, 14O miles in length, is six
tenths of an inch in diameter, and is
of copper, with aluminium alloy,
which will prevent oxidation. 1t is
this cable that is suspended across
the Carquinez straits by a span of
4,4O0 feet and 300 feet in the air.
The test is considered one of the
most successful in the history of
electricity, current of 10000 volts
having been transmitted the entire
distance with a loss not to exceed
five per cent. Under that showing
experts said the voltage could be in
creased until there would be prac-
tically no loss of current. The cur
rent used was an alternating current,
transmitted through motor at a
power station.
As the voltage of 10000 was great
" in excess of the power needed, this
power will be transmitted over the
company's lines to san Jose, a dis
lance of 100 miles from the general
ing plant.

TROLLEY AUTOMOBILE LINE.
Overhead Wire Supplies Vehicles
with Motive Power in a Ger
man Town.

Two modern transportation devices
have been invented by Berlin en-
gineer, who has constructed a trolley
line, similar to that eN-
hibited at the Paris exposition, at
a small city near the Ger
man capital. In this system the auto
mobile receives its motive power from
an overhead wire, by means of troll
lev, which is connected with the auto
mobile by a movable cable. This al
lows the vehicle to turn out at any
place on the road. The line has been
favorably inspected by experts, and
the system is expected to meet with
general favor in Germany.

SEEKING AMERICAN IDEAS.
English Woman Studying Hygiene
and Domestic Economy as Taught
in Schools i'm This Country.

Miss Alice Ravenhill, of England,
who is making an official tour for edu-
cational study in this country, and
who has been visiting the various
schools and colleges of New York city,
has left for visit to other cities. Miss
Ravenhill holds a unique pedagogic
position in England, being inspector
of hygiene and domestic economy
classes under the technical instruc-
tion committee of the county council
of the West Riding of Yorkshire. Her
work is to train teachers who can car
ry their hygienic and economic dis
cipline into the elementary and other
schools of the kingdom. AS a result
of Miss Ravenhill's work interest in
the subject is rapidly increasing. The
board of education for England and
Wales and the sanitary institute of
London united with the committee by
which she is regularly employed to
send her to this country. While here
she will prepare reports on certain
aspects of the teaching of domestic
science and hygiene i'll schools and col
leges of various types in the United

TO GROW OUR OWN COFFEE.
Immense Demand OF United states to
Be Supplied in Coming Years
by Our Island Possessions.

The prospect of a return of perma-
nently peaceful conditions in the Phil
ippines and the present existence of
conditions in Porto Rico and Hawaii
favorable to American producing and
commercial enterprises lends addi-
tional interest to some figures just
compiled by the treasury bureau of
statistics regarding the coffee con-
sumption of the United States and of
the world. The people of the United
States are sending out of the country
more than a million dollars a week in
payment for coffee consumed in this
country, all of which could be readily
produced in Porto Rico, Hawaii and
the Philippine islands, which have al
ready shown their ability to produce
coffee of a high grade commanding
high prices in the markets of the
world Porto Rican coffee has long
been looked upon as of high grade.
and for many years has commanded
| high prices in the markets of Europe,
and the developments of coffee culture
| in Hawaii during the past few years
! have also been very satisfactory in the
/ HudiiAy VI COlSC PIOuuCCu anu thS
prices realized. In the Philippines the
product is of high grade, and the fact
that in physical conditions and eli
mate the islands are very similar to
those of Java. the greatest coffee-pro-
ducing islands of the world, suggests
| great possibilities to those who desire
to see American money expended un-
der the American flag. The fact that
the United States is by far the great
est coffee-consuming country of the
world and is steadily increasing her
consumption further suggests that
American capital and energy may
turn their attention to this promising
field now opened in the islands where
American enterprise can safely enter
upon business undertakings.
