*Decrease.


The percentage OF actual reserve Of the
clearing house banks at the close OF bus
mess yesterday was 29sS.
The statement of banks and trust COM
panies of Greater New York. not members
of the clearing house. shows that these
institutions have aggregate deposits OF
SS97 100, 800; total cash on hand, sci O6l. 400,
and loans amounting TO SS6l $50, 200. The
loans. specie holdings and deposits of the
clearing house banks were new high rec
ords.
The Financier will say:
For the first time since the panic last
fall with the exception of one week, the
associated banks OF New York city re-
ported for the six days enging May l6 a
slight decrease in their surplus reserves.
The statement of actual condition made
on Saturday shows a loss of S,O24,6O0 in
holdings of specie and legal tenders.
But when this fact is taken into consid-
Grafton that a small decrease was report
ed on the face of export movement of
millions of dollars and the payment by
the banks into the treasury through the
withdrawal of public deposits or an
amount approXlmdtlng i've ana a halI
millions of dollars.
II will be seen that the clearing house
institutions almost made up the loss
through the excess of receipts from the
interior and current operations with the
treasury. AS a result of the week $
changes a decrease Of 500 was re-
ported in surplus reserves, which, taking
the statement of actual conditions as be-
ing nearer correct, makes the present
surplus reserve of the New York clear
ing house banks S64,OO1.224.

clans who attended her daughter
had performed an autopsy against
her wishes, Mrs. Peter Napier order

ter was being lowered into place and
made a second examination to salts
fly her suspicion Saturday afternoon.
The girl had died of some mysterious
malady that had puzzled IL physi-
clans, and when she died they re-
quested to be allowed to perform
an autopsy, believing the ailment
was hereditary and that the other
children might die of the same dis
ease. The request was refused and
the mother went to the undertaken s

NEWS OF THE STATE
Elephant Eats Money.

Spokane-When the Norris &
Rowe circus arrives here it will find
a peculiar suit awaiting it. Papers
have been filed asking for the return
of 1895 which an elephant belonging
to the company ate a year ago, when
the circus was at Wallace, Idaho.
The complainants, Charles Garretson
and his wife, were at that time a
bride and groom only two weeks and
were attending the circus. While
they were watching the elephants
the wife asked her husband If he had
his money yet, recalling that pick
pockets were plentiful. Garretson
put his hand into his pocket and
pulled out his purse. AS he did so
he declared that no one would fool
him that easy.
Just then, and while, their atten-
ton was attracted to something else,
an elephant reached out his trunk
and took the wallet and put it into
his mouth and began eating it. The
wife and the keeper rushed to the
scene and made the animal drop the
strange food he was eating, but the
greenbacks were so mangled that the
government would not honor them
by replacing them; hence the suit.

Clubhouse was destroyed by fire.
Mice and matches are held respons-
ible for the blaze, which completely
destroyed the building. The reser-
voir, which should have been full,
was dry and the firemen could get
no water and were unable to check
the flames. The loss is estimated at
$4,000, with about $4,000 insur-
ance. The fire may result in the
club selling the grounds now occu-
pied and building a new clubhouse
further from the center of the city.

Sunday Closing Upheld.

Olympia-The State Supreme
Court again affirmed the constitu-

law. Following Its decision of some
months ago, a test case was brought
In Seattle in the form of habeas cor
pus proceedings on behalf of Frank
H. Donnelian, a theatrical manager,
for keeping his showhouse open on
Sunday. The attempt was made to
upset the law because the original
bill passed by the territorial Legis-
lature exempted Snohomish County
from it's provisions. The Supreme
Court in its decision says that the
penal code into y ,ch part of this
old law was copied, which copy omit
ted this exception, is new law, su-
persedes the old, and holds that the
act is valid and denies the appllca-
ton for habeas corpus.

A bill was passed by the House
providing for the establishment Of
two or three more fish cultural sta
tions on Puget Sound, Washington,
for the propagation of salmon and
other food fish. The bill gave rise to
a good deal of criticism of the
Speaker by several Democrats, as
they charged that he showed favorit-
ism in allowing that particular meas
ure to be consider while others of a
similar character must remain In
committee.
Humphrey, of Washington, urged
the passage of the bill, pleading that
the hatcheries were necessary in
order to prevent the salmon from
becoming extinct.
The bill was opposed by Williams,
Spight and Canler of Mississippi. 1t
was supported by Payne of New
York, who said that it was case Of
legislating for the whole country.
