Things in Chicago.

Chicago, Nov. 21.-That twenty of the
memorandum notes discounted by the
Chicago National bank, representing the
sum of s1,S40OG0, remained unpaid when
the bank suspended in December, 1905.
and that many of the notes declared
by the defense to have been paid at ma

Another register, however, indicated that

ANOTHER BIG FAILURE REPORT.
ED FROM HAMBURG.

London. Nov. 21.-The Bank of
England's discount remained the same
today, at IL per cent This was re-
garded as indicating that the directors
are still hopeful that the American
governments efforts to relieve the cur
rency famine in he United States will
prove successful. but it did not suffice
to 1ispel the uneasiness regarding the
American situation prevailing in the
money market here. Lombard street,
like the other European money CEN
tiers, II is said, is to remain on the de-
Tense until the conditions have cleared
up in America.
The Bank Of England lost the great
er part Of $4,000. 900 in gold during the
past week, and American orders for
the metal are still coming in. Very
little gold is arriving here from the
continent to offset the drain. CONT
mental competition for sterling bills
has ceased, a fact which is accepted as
an indication of the unwillingness of
Paris to part with much more of the
metal.
The reiterated reports that American
bankers propose to utilize the new
treasury certificates as a means of at
tracing gold to New York are favor
ably received, while the strained
financial situation both in Chile and
Portugal further increases the local
tension.

mercial and manufacturing conditions is
indicated in reports from various cen
ters in the United States which have
been received by R G. Dun 4 Co. Some
OF the cities where the financial strin-

ago have a steadily sing supply Of
currency and as a result business in gen
eral is in a more satisfactory state.
The increase in currency supply at Min
neapolis has made it possible for the
large elevator concerns to resume the
purchase OF grain and as a result trade
IS assuming normal proportions. Collec-
tions are moving more freely and the
disturbance in money matters apparently
has passed. The restriction governing
deposits in Cleveland savings banks is

industrial conditions are hopeful. There
IS a noticeable retrenchment in all direc-

mitted to open. This money was re-
turned to the Borough bank as fast as

posed of. and all was returned with the
exception of $2S 000. For this balance a
note of A. w. Doolittle. the private sec
rotary of Cow, was put in.

ported as $201. where il is alleged they
really totaled $4,000.
