the Hussar district of Kokhara, has
been overwhelmed and completely de-
stroyed by q landslide that followed the
earthquake of October 81. According

lost their lives. The first reports OF the
casualties we're exaggerated, the death
list being placed as high as $4,000
Karatagh has about $500 jewellers,
and there is reason to believe that about
l 800 Were buried alive.

fact that yesterday was a public holt
day, caused by the proclamation of the

SETTLING DOWN
TO NORMAL BASIS
Steamer Lusitsnia Sails from LIVER
pool for New York With $40 ooo'-
900 in Coin--Ail Eager TOR Su'
rsrcv and Each City Husbands Its
Own Supply.

Naw York. Nov. 2.-The financial
situation is gradually clearing without
showing any striking features. Runs
on the banks and trust companies are
nract;caIly over; money, which was
temporarily withdra wn from banks suo-
iect TO runs, is flowing to the stronger
banks. and currency Is being PROVIDED
In most cases where the demand 'or II
is considered legitimate.
Further engagements OF gold ny Dos
ton and other points have brought up
the total engagements abroad under the
recent movement to $26, 660, 600. Inc
Lusitana. which sailed from Liverpool
Yesterday, has on board about $40, ooo,-
900 In gold, one OF The largest slngie
shinments ever made. Prices OF ex-
change were firm during the early part
Of Yesterday and did not yield seriously
at any time. The fact that the STOCK
exchanges OF London and Paris were
closed on account OF All Saints day pre-
vented any comparison of quotations on
arbitrage operations.
Balances with the clearing house
have settled down to normal condi'
ton. but there is still something OF
blockade in domestic exchange through
the unwillineness Of New York banks
to pay currency on drafts from other
cities and the unwillingness OF Other
cities to pay out their currency upor
drafts from New York. The condition
of affairs indicates continued pressure
for currency rather than a breakdown
Of credits, but reasonable demands ar
being met for regular customers OF thu
banks.
The possibility of fastening the ex
port movement OF wheat and cottol
still engages the attention OF foreigl
exchange dealers and also OF those VIII
endeavor to keep in touch with the gen
eral situation.

MONEY IS EASIER.
Acute Stage of Financial Crisis Over
in East,

IN EAST
New York, Nov. Indications that
the available supply of cash would be
materially increased within short time
with imports of gold and the increase
of the Eank note circulation, and that
the movement of cotton and grain crops
would be facilitated in every way pos
sible. with the result of increasing our
credits abroad, were the salient feat
ures of today's financial situation. 1t
seemed to be recognized everywhere
that the acute stage of the crisis was
over and that all that remained was to
obtain sufficient currency to resume
currency payments upon broad scale
and thus to restore conditions prevail
ing before the crisis.
The engagements OF gold made in
New York, Chicago and elsewhere
brought up the total import movement
within the past week to $23, $50, 900.
As the amount OF gold will afford a
basis of credit to four times the
amount, or about 500, 100000, it will
in itself afford much relief to the ex-
listing pressure.

fore the firing began, and thus escaped

Seattle, Wash, Nov. Failure on

people of British Columbia, the immi.

CONFIDENCE IN BANKS.
Portland Depositors Make no Attempt
to Withdraw Funds.

Portland, Oct. SHORTHAND showed
confidence in its banks yesterday to
remarkable degree. There was no in
dication of run at any of the institu-
tions when they opened for business at
the usual hour after the holiday. All
resumed business as usual with the ex-
ception of the Title Guarantee & Trust
company, which preferred to take adj
vantage of the five-day bank holiday in
order that there might be no doubt as
to the legality of the business transact
ed. AS real estate transactions come
up very largely in this bank, it was
thought best by President Ross to avoid
possible legal entanglements.
There was no uneasiness apparent
about the city yesterday, and the banks
were not pressed for money. In fact,

Portland. Nov. Following the de-
cision rendered by the United States
Circuit Court at Seattle Wednesday,
Judge Wolyerton, OF the Federal court,
granted an injunction yesterday re-
straining the railroads from putting in
the advanced lumber rates to the East
until the merits Of the case can be set
before the Interstate Commerce COM
mission and hearing be held. The
restraining order WAS asked by the Ore
gon & Washington Lumber Manufac-
turers' association, and upon his return
from Seattle yesterday morning Judge
Wolverton announced that the prayer
Of the lumbermen would be granted.
Judge Wolyerton ordered the associa.
ton to put up bond for $3.50, 900 that
will be called for in the event the rail
roads finally win. This money will bt
used to pay the difference between the
present rates and the proposed tariffs
should the railroads finally win.
Lumber companies in the state MOI
members of the association are advised
to file suits in intervention as soon al
possible, in order that the railroads
will not be enabled to enforce the pro
posed freight rates on firms not parties
to the suit brought by the association
The advanced rates, as announced b,
the railroads on all lumber shipment
to the Missouri and Mississippi rivers
we're to have gone into effect today
but the injunction will postpone then
indefinitely. The increase was pub
lished some time ago and tariffs issue'
by the railroads. Appeals were mad
direct to the Interstate Commerce com
mission to postpone the enforcement
of the rate, but as no complaint wa
before the commission, it could not &C
upon the appeal.
