Just TO show how the world wags,
and how some folks are never salts
fled, We call 10 mind the case of an
organization OF American true reform
ers and busy uplifteTs who met in
Washington a year or two ago. These
well-meaning persons with a chronic
unrest adopted formal resolutions call
ing upon the Prince of Monaco 10 abOl-
lisa gambling a MOnaco-and 10 forbid
the sale of wine i'm Monaco To our
mind that gratuitous ringing in of the
wine clause with the anu-gambiing agi-
ta.tlOn, directed at a country where
wine is practically the national bever-
age, viii remain the greatest bit of
unconscious humOr of the twentieth
century, and viii forever remain a land
mark of misdirected butting-in. This
lesson We apply to the small section OF
fans who We're SOrely wounded in spirit
because Washington did not win both
games yesterday. Instead of being
tickled to death al the idea that the
club had taken one of a double-header
and had split even in a series of four
games with a first division team. they
loudly lamented the untimely and IN
seemlY ascension of Smith that lost
the first game yesterday. Forget Il, and
be glad YOU are alive 1t was the best
work Washington has shown here this
season and YOU have a right to chrrk
up a whole lot instead OF expressing
vain regrets.

Did YOU larry dear brother. 10 think

with New York; DOst remember that
twice New York opened an inning with
2 clean single of Groom and then sur
fered from double play? Dost also call
TO mind shat upon another Embarrassing
occasion Groom passed the first man up
and that still another double play re-
suited That was genuine major league
baseball. True. the double play on Cree
when Engle sent Clymer a fairly easy
fly TN the sixth inning was due to bone
head coaching by Demmitt, whose bush
league noodle caused him to insist that
cree keep on going when ne should
have been chained 20 some spot within
handy reach Of first. but nevertheless
it was an effective sQuelChing of Van
kee hopes Demmitt, by the way had
been excessively chesty until that bit
OF coaching. When Cree had been re-
tired on Clymer's throw to DonOhue,
CantiHon got of a mouologue concern
ing Demmitt's intellectual standard that
sent that OffciOus youth back TO the
bench so crushed ne never opened his
mouth again.

NEW ORLEANS COTTON.

NEW ORLEANS, La, September IL
Spot cetton quiet. 1-16 lower. Middling,
1875. Sales on the spot. 40 bales: to ar
rive. 200 bales. Futures opened steady at
an advance of 5 to 8 points on good
cables from both future and spot market
in Liverpool. Soon after the call the mar
ket stood 8 to IL up. and this was the
highest level Of the day. Large bullish
interests, 1t was said. started selling out,
and the selling was continued from the
that. the advance was destroyed and re-
placed by q net decline of IL points. The
decline probably would have been wider
but for the very unfavorable crop reports
from the west. where the drought and
high temperatures still prevail. The clos
ing was steady at the lowest Of the day.
Futures this week lost 26 to 30 points,
compared with last weeks closing. as the
result of extensive bear operations based
on the rather general conviction that the
free movement OF the crop during the
next month or two must result in selling
issued this week. but it had little or no in
duence on the price OF futures. The spot
demand was q notable feature Of the week
and was hardly in keeping with the
claims Of the bears. Liverpool's large
sales corresponded with heavy trading in
all the centers to which new cotton is
moving in volume.
In the local market trading continued
light, sales on the spot amounting to
1894 bales, against 900 last week, while
sales to arrive totaled !, 400 bales against
TOO last week. Spot prices lost 1-16c for

BANK STATEMENT.

NEW YORK, September 1.-THE state
ment of clearing house banks for the
week shows that the banks hold Sc, 6,469, IT'S
more than the requirements of the % per
cent reserve rule. This is a decrease Of
$8.S69.175 in the proportionate cash re-
serve, as compared with last week.
The statement follows:
Loans. s1,34S,305, 200, decrease $569, 300.
Deposits, 1881, 1929, 300. decrease 3d.
112,4oo.
Circulation. $51, $50, 400, increase $40
Legal tenders, $71,s72,0oo. decrease $s,
$4,000.
Reserve, 1881. .s01 800, decrease $12,147.-
Reserve required, $s45. a25, decrease
$2,27s, 100.
Surplus, ss.4es,175. decrease, $s.sss. .1oo
United States deposits, $6,SSs.675. de-
crease $8,S58, 225.
The percentage of actual reserve of the
clearing house banks today was 1926.
The statement of the banks and trust
companies Of Greater New York not re-
porting to the clearing house shows that
these institutions have aggregate deposits
of 81, 1,377, 464. 800; total cash on hand. $154,
$4,000, and loans amounting to $1.219,-
s76,500.
The Financier will say:
1.-THE full effect OF the heavy move
ment of the funds toward the interior.
coupled with a loss of over $4,000, 900 to
the subtreasury, was disclosed in the
statement of the associated banks of the
city of New York Saturday, surplus re-
serve having fallen s7,OS1,725. bringing
the present excess above the 20 per cent
minimum to 3,166, 100, the lowest surplus
reported this year, and for many months
previous
"The banks lost in actual cash during
the week, owing to the causes named,
$11 340,80 Their loans were reduced
$4.S76,S0O, and this, with the loss in cash,
brought about a decrease of SIT, ,036, 300 in
net deposits. The sharp reduction in
loans indicates that the banks are get
ting themselves into a position to meet
further Interior currency shipments. The
same tendency is noted in the case of the
trust companies outside the clearing
house, which also reduced their loans
over $4,000, 900 last week.
THE trust companies suffered loss
of only about one-half million in cash.
and contracted their net deposits $S,-
063, 400 The present surplus reserve of
the clearing house banks based on their
actual condition Saturday. is only one
fourth of / per cent above the legal mini
mum. 1t is probably early to talk Of
decidedly firmer rates for money, In view
of the abundant supplies which seem TO
be offering everywhere, but 1t can be
said with entire truth that money rates
have been much higher with more abund-
ant supplies in the banks than are now
shown"
