About the
Money Market

To devise a plan for furnishing
money to move the big wheat crop of
the northwest the Spokane clearing
house association has called meeting
of all the bankers of the Inland EN-
pire, to be held in Spokane Sunday
morning. 1t is expected that not less
than $50 bankers, representing as many
banks, will attend. The meeting will
be held in the large banquet room at
Davenport's restaurant, converting at
11:45 O'Clock in the morning and TAX
ing luncheon before any business is dis
cussed.
1t is said arrangements have been
made whereby money will be secured
for the movement of the northwestern
crops. Sufficient funds have been re-
ceived in St Paul for the movement of
wheat crop and no further difficulty
would be encountered by the banks in
this respect.
The Title Guarantee and Trust COM
pany Of Portland, Ore has passed into
the hands of receiver. The usual re-
strictions for the protection of deposit
tors in such cases are to control the
acts of the receiver.
The general condition of the financial
situation was favorable in New York
last Thursday. The runs on the trust
companies had practically ceased under
the encouraging influence of the sup
port of the trust company committee;
gold engagements were further in
creased and the stock market was
bouyant.
Now that the arbitrary strain has
been lessened locally in New York the
banks have begun preparations to ship
all available currency to the northwest
to aid the movement of the crops.
While there is concerted action among
the city's banking institutions to meet
the demands for currency now being
made by banks in the crop country the
individual banks will send all funds
that can possibly be spared for the pur-
pose.
Estimates of the com bined amounts
that the New York banks will send to
the northwest within the next six
weeks vary.
President j. J. Hill held a confer
ence in New York with the officers of
the Chase bank, at which, it was
stated. he asked that the northwest be
given all possible assistance to move
the crops. Mr.. Hill was informed that
while the local bans could not FURNISH
the usual amount of money for crop
movement purposes, they were anxious
TO do all they could to expedite the
shipment of cereals to the seaboard,
whence they could be sent aboard and
thereby strengthen the country's posi-
ton in the foreign market.
1--WE have started to send all the
funds we can to the northwest" said
bank official, and while the amounts
in individual instances are not very
large figure before long. Within a
week or more the flow of gold to the
wheat fields will be in steady volume
varing in sums from $4,000 to $50, 1000.
Mr.. Hill was here and conferred with
us on the situation along the lines of
his roads. We promised to do all we
could. A ready solution of any diff
culties in the northwest can be found
by the farmers themselves of an oP-
portunity &c use cashiers checks, but
that is process of education which
may or may not be difficult to work
out.

"A Message from Mars which will be
presented here at the Jefferson theatre
tomorrow afternoon and night for two
performances, is the story of Horace
Parker, an Englishman upon whom for

stantial blessings of life. He has youth,
health, wealth, pleasing exterior a charm
Ing sweetheart, to whom he is engaged
to be married, but he is beset by two
vices, which are by no means uncommon

richly endowed with self-conceit and a
selishness that seems without limit. At
the beginning of the play his supreme in
difference to the happiness and comfort
of those about him nearly costs him the
love of his bethrothed, who is a sweet,
innocent, patient and self-sacrlficing
maiden. She is his opposite In every way.
She Is angered at his indifference at a re-
quest she has made of him to order for
her cab on a stormy night to drive to
the home of q friend. She leaves him in

tie was effective and the interest centered
in Falstaff, the merry wives Mr.. Ford
and Mrs. Page and their husbands, the
three registering followers of Falstaff and
Dame Quickly.
Norman Hackett appeared as Ford and
acted the part of the suspicious and jeal-
Gus husband with much cleverness. His
voice Is pleasing and his command OF
facial expression is noticeable. The pass
ing emotions of surprise, sullenness, anger
and disappointment showing in his coun-
tenance added much to the effect of the
spoken lines In fact, the by-play and
facial control of all the performers
showed something of the care and study
that have been put into the work.
