New York. Nov. S-Although there

were OF an individual character in each
instance. the market as whole was
plainly under the influence of the gem
eral common sense realization in Wall
street that with the arrival here in bulk
within two weeks further time az the
most OF the immense quantity of gold
taken from Europe for our account, the
acute period Of financial stringency must
come TO an end.
Further engagements Of gold on the

by the agents Of American importers
brought the total amount Of these en-
gagements up to within hailing distance
Of S5O,oo0.OOo Nevertheless the gold move
ment showed signs of slackening.
Premium Now Lower.
The premium on currency here which
has been the lever by means Of which
most OF the recent gold exports Rave
been forced is visibly abating, a pay
ment Of 21z per cent to-day being the
most that could be extorted in any quar-
ter for cash payments.
Meanwhile over S2l,OOOOO0 in gold has
already been landed in this country on
the current movement. and although the
full benefit Of the receipt Of this money
is not likely 10 be felt until next week,
It already had an effect to-day in the
lowering Of rates for call loans.
The Imperial Bank Of Germany raised
its discount rate to-day from 615 10 ~
per cent, but the action had been so alb
solutely discounted that prices of Sc
curities on the Berlin Bourse advanced.
In London and Paris, TOO, the financial
markets We're better.

reviewed Mr.. Sanders connection

NM Sanders might have told you
that in my commissary stores there

There vas not an item of truth in
the statement that he favored free

He took up the question of the
revenue tax saying it was a war

system of internal revenue tax was
undemocratic and unchristian.
Prominent Democrats urged its
repeal and even the Women's

relegated to the several States for
