Gold From Paris Possible.

With the Paris rate still ruling below ,

To London seems likely recourse. but a
diversion of the South American demand
upon London to New York is considered
IL possibility.
The stock market seemed to throw off
the depression of the first hour. which
was founded ON this dubious money out
look abroad. The resumption of the up
ward movement was connected with a be-
lief that the interior currency movement
was on the point of turning in favor of
New York. owing to the satisfaction of
the crop-moving demands.
1t was believed, also, that the settle

Interest in Steel Probe.
Interest was shown in the report
from Washington of the result of the
Investigation by the commissioner of
corporations of the working of the in
ternatiOnal steel rails pool. The asser-
ton that increased percentage of the
worlds tonnage had been allotted late
ly TO the United States producers gave
increased credence to the rumOrs of
accumulation of United States Steel
shares for account of foreign syndi-
cate.
The bank statement showed the pre-
dicted loss in cash of over $4,000. 900,
according TO the actual showing. The
scaling down of deposit liabilities by
transfer of loans to the trust companies
also continued. This process involves
a more rapid shrinkage of deposits
than of loans. while the drain on cash
holdings continues, and the margin of
the excess of loans over deposits, con-
seuuently is constantly widening

IRONCLAD CASTE.
Its Rule Among the Hindus Absolute
and Interchangeable.

Caste distinction in India is thing
difficult for n foreigner to comprehend
All the racial or religious distinctions
which separate European nations from
each other and divide them within
themselves do not equal the number OF
classes into which the Hindus are di-
vdcd by that is known as caste
The 200. 1000, 900 Hindus are made up
of diverse racial elements and speak
about nineteen developed languages
and over 100 dialects. They are again
divided into over 5000 castles, most OF
them with subcastes. one of these
castles. the Brahmans. is split up into
more than 500 subcastcs, of which none
will intermarry and few will eat to-
gethcr.
The term caste" includes 81 many
things that it is difficult to define it
There are, however, two properties es-
srmtial To a true caste-first, there is
no entry except by birth; second, mar
riage outside the caste is absolutely
forbidden. To preserve the purity and
maintain the eXCluSivcneSs of the So
ciety many minute rules ol conduct
many restrictions on food and many
ceremonial uhscrvanccs are imposed
on the members and enforced by pen
altfes which cannot be cvadcd. against

Ambassadorial Privileges.

In the popular mind-the American
mind at least-there is very little diff
ference between an ambassador and a
minister, but the former is entitled to
very many privileges abroad that are
denied to a mere envoy.
For instance, one curious privilege
of an ambassador is that he, and he
alone, when dismissed, may turn his
back to the sovereign to whose court
he is accredited. The mode of prOce-
dure. generally speaking. is as fol-
lows:
When the audience is at an end the
ambassador waits to be dismissed by
the sovereign. When dismissed the
ambassador bows, rctires three PAGES
bows again. retires three PAGES. bows
a third time. turns on his heels and
walks to the folding doors. But when
the reigning sovereign is n woman,
his back would be discourteOus; to
walk backward would be to resign a
privilege: therefore the ambassador
retircs sideways like n crab. He keeps
one eye on the sovereign and with the
other he endeavOrs to find the door
BY this unique means he contrives tn
evince all politeness to the sovereign
and at the same time retain one of his
privileges.
Another privilege Of ambassadors is
the right of being ushcred into the
royal presence through folding doors
both of which must be flung wide for
him. No one save an ambassador can
claim this privilege; the most any
non n-ambassadorial individual can "X-
pect is that one of the doors shall b"
opened to him.
One privilege appertaininS to tn"
ambassador. one capable of causing
great Inconvenience to the ruler, is
the right of demanding admission Ia
the sovereign at any hour of day or
night. This was one of the reasons
why Abdul Hamid, when sultan "i
Turkey, opposed the raising of our
mission at Constantinoplr To an en-
bassy. 1t was decidedly incOnvcnicnt
at times to see the American represent
tativc at all.
To the European the most import
ant feature of the ambassadors make
up is his sword. Their" IN" blade OF
the sword is Il rapirr blade with the
point blunted. 1t has been faccti"usly
observed abroad that the use tn" sword
is put To in addition To its trick 0i
tripping up its wearer is usually IN"
harmless one of pnking fires. on" di-
plnmatist was said to file his bills on
his sword when it was not otherWls"
engaged: and for n long while it was
a standing WittiCism of the corps Dip
lomatique in Europe that the Russian
ambassadors used their swords to file
broken treaties, n circumstance that
was held to account for the inordinate
length of their apons.-llarper's

REASON WHY WE SMOKE.

choloqy OF Nicotine InhaIeTS.
WHY do we smoke? What myster-
ious and irresistible attraction does
this strange pleasure exert? 1t is in
deed a strange pleasure, for you cam
not i'm this case, as you in regard to
other human pleasures and the vices
that result from cXCcsSeS, point out
that it responds to certain organic
craving in our nature, which has grad
ually become excessive and tyrannical.
In more or less perfect forms all our
modern cniuymcnts have been prac-
enjoyment was unknown to the an
cicnt civilizations and became known
i'm Europe only at the time of Cath
crime de Mcdici.
Those of our senses which seem to
crave for it today are really not tickled
10y it. If it were the smell we enjoyed
we should really smoke through the
nose, which we do with our palate that
is nearly unable to appreciate odors.
1t has been proved that when YOU
blindfOld n smoker and compress his
nustrils he is unable to tell whether the
cigar he is smoking is lighted or not.
Everything i'm the act of smoking is,
therefore, abnormal.
\ smoker forces the mucous men,
hrancs of his mouth and throat to per-
form a work which they do not crave
for, and wanting to inhalc an aroma,
he inhalcs il through the mouth which
is almost as strange as if YOU would
put a straw i'm your nuStrils To appre-
ciate the flavor of glass of fine Bor-
dcauX.
Let us admit, however, that the sense
of smell comes into play in this strange
act. There are aromatic udors that
please everybody, but the "d"r of to-
hacco is distinctly isarceahlc and the
proof is that nobody likes to smell the
smoke of another. Every one tolcrates
only the taste and the udor of his own
smoke.
To counteraCt the unpleasant sensa-
ton produced by the smoking of 9TH
ers, we men may at least smoke our
selves, but what about our women

ity to make him obcdient to his wore>
and will. When he found that his at
tempt had failed, he set out to return
to Africa, but avoided the town, lest
any person who had seen him leave In
company with Aladdin should make
inquiries after the youth. Aladdin be-
ing suddenly enveloped in darkness,
cried, called out to his uncle to tell
him he was ready to give him the
lamp; but in vain, since his cries could
not be heard. He descended to the
bottom of the steps, with design to
get into the pal .ce, but the door,
which was opened before by enchant-
ment, was now shut by the same
means. He then redoubled his cries
and tears, sat down on the steps with
out any hopes of ever seeing light
again, and in an expectation of pass
ing from the present darkness to
speedy death In this great emergency
he said, There is no strength or pow
er but in the great and high Cod" and
in Joining his hands to pray he rub
bed the ring which the magician had
put on his finger Immediately a genie
of frightful aspect appeared, and SAID,
What wouldst thou have? | am ready
to obey thee. | serve him who pos
sesses the ring on thy finger; |, and
the other slaves of that ring"
At another time Aladdin would have
been frightened at the sight of SO eX-
traurdinary a figure, but the danger he
was in made him answer without hesi-
tation, "Whoever thou art, deliver me
from this place" He had no sooner
spoken these words, than he found
himself on the very spot where the
magician had last left him, and no sign
of cave or opening, nor disturbance of
the earth. Returning God thanks to
find himself once more i'm the world. he
made the best for his home. When he
got within his mothers door, the joy at
seeing her and his weakness for want
of suStcnancc made him So faint that
he remained for a long time as dead.
AS soon as he recovered. he related to
his mother all that had happened to
him, and they We're both very vchc-
mcnt in their complaints of the cruel
magician. Aladdin slept very soundiy
till late the next morning, when the
first thing he said to his mother was,
wished she would give him his break
fast. Alas; child" said she. Il have
not a bit of bread to give you; YOU
ate up all the provisions | had in the
house yesterday; but | have little
cotton which | have spun; | will go

cr time and give me the lamp | brought
home with me yesterday: | will go and
sell it, and the money | shall get for
it will serve both for breakfast and
dinner. and perhaps supper too"
Aladdin's mother took the lamp and
said To her son. Here ii is. but it is

Concerning the cotton consumption
by southern mills the report says:
"The spindles in the south number
11.5S3.359, including old, idle and not
complete. Three years ago consump-
ton in the cotton states was ahead OF
the rest of the United States 100000
bales; last year the excess was mar
rowed to $4,000. and this year 1t has
again increased to 10000. This re-
fers to American cotton. The north
used foreign cotton this year the equiv
alent in this years American weights
of $4,000 bales, while the south used
the equivalent of $1,000 bales, but
even with these added the south is
ahead in both American and foreign
cotton to the extent of $4,000 bales
In the south many mills were expert
menting for the first time with small
amounts of East Indian cotton and
while the aggregate was not large, all
Of "A institutions used various descrip-
tions Of foreign against only II last
year"
The consumption Of American cotton
by northern mills, Col. Hester puts at
2,174,O 900 bales, against 100000 last
year. He says the aggregate consump-
ton north and south was 4,515,O 600
bales against, while they used $50, 600
bales of foreign~cotton, making to-
tai consumption Of all kinds OF 4,665,-
900 bales, against 5,21O, 900 last year.
He puts the worlds consumption or
American cotton at 11,744,OOO bales,
a decrease under last year Of 1888, 600
and under the year before of 900
bales
In the south Col Hester makes the
consumption 21S,51S under last year
and 14S,026 over the year before last
Twenty-six new mills are now build
ing in the southern states, with total
of 36O,3S2 spindles, and the spindles
in the active mills have been increased
by 1886.
This. he says. is not due to the phe-
nOmenal showing recorded year by
year before the panic, but is still an
indication of progress by the south in
the direction of manufacturing her
own cotton.
or the total of S3S mills, IT'S have
been i'm operation including one exclu-
sively on foreign cotton: 81 were idle
and 26 in course of construction. The
seasons consumption was divided as
follows:

THE CROP OF 1eoe-1910.
Short of Yield, But Brought Record
Breaking Price.


Breaking Price.
New Orleans, Sept. 6.-That the
value of the cotton which the south
marketed during the commercial sea-
son recently closed far surpassed that
of any previous year in the history OF
the country, in spite of short yield
was the principal feature of the annual
report put out today by Henry G
Hester, for many years the secretary
and statistician of the New Orleans
Cotton Exchange.
The money value of the commercial
crop during the season 1909-10, Is
placed at s77S,S94, 900, showing that
while the quantity Of cotton marketed
was 3,21O,6OO bales less than the pre-
vious season. 1t brought $95,100,000
more. This does not include the value
of cotton seed which, If added, would
show the actual wealth produced by
the crop for the commercial year just
closed to have been $902. 1874 900, q
gain over 190S-09 of 100, 900
According to complete reports from
both Northern and Southern milling
centers, the south for the third con-
secutive year manufactured more cot
ton than the north and increased the
lead which ii held last season.
Today's Hester report forms n de-
tailed supplement to the report on the
crop which was put out at the close OF
business August 81. That report plac-
ed the crop for 1909-10 at 10,609,66S
bales. q decrease under that of 190S-O9
of 3.215.7S9, and under that Of 1907
0S of 962,29S. These, Col. Hester says
constitute the face of the figures, but
considering the falling off In weight
which averaged 66S per bale, there Is
the equivalent of $4,000 bales, or a
crop equal to 10,472,000 bales Of last
years weight.
According to the report the grade
of the crop was good. averaging prac-
tically "strict middling," bare shade
under last year, but not up to the lat
ter in body and strength and length OF
staple The average price of middline
cotton for the year Is placed at 14.37
cents per pound, and the commercial
value of the bales at $73.41 against
$49.46 last year, and at $3.50 the year
before
The report places the actual growth
at 10,3S9,000 bales and says that as
the result of the high prices the inte-
rior has practically been swept clean
farmers having little or no old cotton
left over and southern mill stocks have
materially decreased.

is given as follows in thousands OF
