A Wise Precaution.

Denver-The Denver clearing
house banks (and that means all the
Denver banks) determined TO act in
harmony with practically all the banks
OF the country in stopping the pay
ment Of currency on checks and drafts
until November 5tL, unless the old or
der OF things should be sooner re-
stored. The. step was taken by the
Denver banks quite reluctantly and
only when they were notified from the
other cities that the action had been
definitely resolved upon the Denver
banks must govern themselves &C
cordIngly.
The resolution unanimously adopted
by the Denver banks was to the effect
that. commencing Monday morning
and continuing unto November 5th,
Denver banks will not pay cash on
checks drawn by anyone nor upon
drafts drawn by outside banks. There
is but one exception to his rule.
Checks drawn by depositors to meet
regular payrolls will be honored as
usual in gold or currency All other
checks will be received and paid in
clearing house certificates instead of
currency.
This means that depositors will go
along with their business Just as
though the regulations had not been
adopted They will draw their checks.
which will be received by merchants
or others, and be deposited, and the
accounts of deposltors will be cred
tied with the amounts. The checks
will be cleared at the clearing house
lust as before. and settlements made
between the banks in clearing house
certificates instead OF currency.
Drafts made upon Denver banks by
outside banks will be treated in pre-
ciselg the same way Such drafts will
be honored by exchange on other
cities. if desired, as usual. or they will
be paid in clearing house certificates
The only change in business under
this rule will be that currency will
not be paid on checks or drafts-clear-
ing house certificates taking the place
OF currency for the time being In ev-
cry other respect business will pro
coed without halt or Inconvenience Of
any kind.
intention to the Denver banks through
the respective clearing houses were
those OF Chicago. St. Louis. Milwau,
kee. Pittsburg. Cincinnati. Cleveland.
Philadelphia. Des Moines. Omaha.
New York, Minneapolis. Indianapolis
and Kansas City; and in each case
they notified the Denver clearing
house that the step had been definitely
resolved upon.
The effect of this action by the out
side banks was to cut OF not only the
Denver banks. but all others from ob
tanning In currency the money they
had on deposit in them. Under the
banking law all national banks are
required 10 have en- deposit in central
reserve banks a certain percentage
OF course. this was intended to be al
ways available for drafts made upon
il Denver banks could not do bust
ness with Eastern or other banks or
issue drafts upon them without de
posits there TO meet them BY the ac-
ton SO generally taken by the banks
OF the country these deposits are not
now available in currency. but are In
clearing house certificates
Denver banks will honor drafts in
precisely the same way that their
drafts upon their deposits will be hon.
ored by Eastern oanks.

POLITE DISSENT.

Like most provincial people, the Bra.
zilians are inquisltive, but their ma
tive politeness will not allow them to
receive any reply otherwise than with
thanks. When DIR. George Gardner was
travelling In the Interior Of that coun-
try, he was detained for some days
by Illness on an island In one Of the
large Islands of northern Brazil. He
found these remote people curious to
learn about the outside world, but q
little incredulous Of his accounts Of the
trlumphs of civilization.
Until | gained sufficient strength to
leave the island, l spent much Of my
time under the shade Of tree, either
listening to the conversation of thu
people or answering the thousand and
one questions put by them respecting
my own and other distant countries
These questions We're often sufficiently
ridiculous, and l could often perceive
that my answers were considered
stretches Of the long bow, although they
were too polite to say so. Not only was
It among the poor islanders of San
Pedro that l observed this to be the
case. but the same effects occurred
among those who were considered well
educated.
| remember once to have been con.
yerslng with the president Of one OF
the inland provinces about steam nayi.
CATION, and on my telling him that
many of the English steamboats, were
now entirely constructed of iron, he
did not say that he did not believe me,

he lost his eyesight by an accident
with an arrow gun. Three years pre-
ivously he had lost his left eye, a play
mate, in a moment of passion, striking
him with a stone.
Mr.. Gore is but SO years of age. He
lives at bawton, has a wife and four
children, and is a lawyer by profess
sion. His memory Is a wonder, When
his father prepared to send him to a
blind school, he refused to go, saying
that schools for the blind did not fur
nlsh him the books and opportunity he
desired. SO he went to the public
schools and college, getting through by
reason of his acute memory.
