NEW YORK BANKS
RETURN MONEY
ON REQUEST OF SECRETARY
CORTELYOU.
TO HELP OTHER SECTIONS
Big Sums Are Transferred 70 I'm
portant Trade Centers Of the Coun-
try. Navy Comes to Aid Of Pacific
Coast Finances.

Washington.-SecIetary of the
Treasury Cortelyou stated that while
in New York he had asked several of
the leading banks there to return 70
the treasury comparatively small sums
aggregating between $4,OOO,OO0 and
$5,OOO,OOO. The only object Of this
call was to strengthen the treasury
working balance, which had been some
what reduced by the action of the sec
rotary in responding to calls from
banks in several sections Of the coun-
try for public deposits to meet the
increased demands upon them for
each incident to the crop moving sea-
son.
The withdrawal Of so small sum
could have no appreciable effect in
New York or elsewhere and the banks
gladly and promptly acceded to the re-
quest of the secretary. The demand
for additional circulation continues
with slight diminution. From Novem-
Der l to IA inclusive, the actual ship
ments Of national banks notes TO
banks increasing their circulation was
$2O,642,8O0. This large addition to
the stock of currency in the country,
which is held up to the expectations
OF the treasury officials has marked
influence. it is stated, in restoring
public confidence and in minimizing
the effects of the present money
stringency.
Secretary Root requested that de-
NAL be made of the story that the
French government has proposed to
secure tariff concessions from the
United States though the intervention
of New York bankers as a price for
the release Of gold by the Bank of
France, in order that the gold might
be shipped to this country to relieve
the present stringency.
Any proposal of this character in
evitably must pass through diplomatic
channels and the state department of
ficials, therefore would be in position
to obtain advance information If such
an effort were contemplated. The
financial situation and any plans the
New York market may have to bring
about shipments of gold from France
the secretary said, are not involved
in the present tariff negotiations be-
tween that country and the United
Staes.

Oil Leases.

Secretary Garfield listened to the
protest Of a committee Of twenty re-
presenting the Milcontinent Oil Pro-
ducers Association, against a recent
amendment to the regulations Of the
Interior Department governing oil
leases in the Indian Territory. This
amendment authorizes the Secretary
to increase the royalty to be paid TO
the Indian allottees to the extent Of
sixteen and twenty-thirds per cent Of
the gross proceeds arising from any
lease, and three hours of time were
spent in trying to convince the Sec
rotary that the regulation is unbus-
inesslike and may be used to work
great hardships. 1t was contended
that even after a contract had been
entered into, the Secretary could ar
bitrarily increase the amount to be
paid to the Indians without even
consulting the lessee. This, it was
urged, was necessary, because the In
dians are largely Of white blood and
can care for their own interests.

COSTLY PRESSURE.
Heart and Nerves Fail on Coffee.

A resident of a great Western
State puts the case regarding stimu-
lants with a comprehensive brevity
that is admirable. He says:
Il am Sc years old and have had
considerable experience with stimu-
lants. They are all alike-a mortgage
on reserved energy at rufnous inter-
est. AS the whip stimulates but does
not strengthen the horse, SO do slim
ulants act upon the human system.
Feeling this way, I gave up coffee
and all other stimulants and began
the use of Postum Food coffee some
months ago. The beneficial results
have been apparent from the first.
The rheumatism that I used to suffer
from has left me, 1 sleep sounder,
my nerves are steadier and my brain
clearer. And I bear testimony also
to the food value of Postum-some-
thing that is lacking in coffee" Name

Spice Of Life in the Maine Woods.

Spice Of Life in the Maine Woods.
The southeast corner. of the State
Of Maine is a happy remnant of the
ancient wilderness. The railroads
will carry you around it in a day, If
you wish to go that way, making a
big oval Of 200 or 500 miles along
the. sea and by the banks Of the
Penebscot, the Mattawamkeag and
the st. Croix. But If you wisely wish
to cross the oval you must ride, or go
afoot or take to your canoe; probably
you will have to try all three methods
of locomotion, for the country is a
mixed quantity. 1t reminds me of
what 1 once heard in Stockholm: that
the Creator, when the making. Of the
rest of the world was done, had a lot
of fragments Of land and water, for
ests and meadows, mountains and
valleys, lakes and moors, left over;
and these He threw together to make
the southern part Of Sweden. I like
that kind of a promiscuous country.

When to Make Camp.

When the sun comes within the
width Of two paddle-blades of the
horizon, if you are wise you will take
the first bit of level ground within
reach of wood and water, and make
haste to get the camp in order before
dark. So we pitched Il blue tent
on the beach with a screen of bushes
at the back to shelter us from the
wind; broke a double quantity of
fir branches for our bed, to save us
from the midnight misery of sand in
Jul blankets; cut a generous supply
of frewood from a dead pine tree
which stood conveniently at hand;
and settled down in comfort for the
night.-From "a Holiday in a Vaca-
tion," by Henry a Dyke, in the
Scribner.
