forced loan from the Bank of England,

forced loan from the Bank of England, which would increase the pressure?
 Next year the existing arrangements state will be subjected to a revision, and in view of this the London cham Der of commerce proposed that depu- tation be appointed to represent to the government the necessity of legislative action to secure the keeping of larger gold reserves, such legislation to pro- vide: ...,-
 That the note issues of the Bank of England against government debt and securities commonly called the fiduciary issue, forming as they do an undue proportion of the whole, should be reduced.
 2-That a reasonable reserve in gold should be held by the government against the deposits in the trustee and postoffice savings bank.
 3-That fuller and more frequent statement of the position of all banks should be published.
 4-That the Bank of England should make an annual return showing the az gregate bankers balance for each week of the preceding year.
 On the points the other chambers were far from unanimous. Many of the country banks, it was pointed out with commendable frankness, would not like to face the music of weekly balance sheet, and as for keeping reserve to meet a run on the Postoffice Savings bank, it was argued that if the state were to follow the example of the big joint stock banks, which keep an average reserve of one-fifth of their liabilities to the public, it would mean the locking up of roughly $2OO,- GOO, 900 of dead money
 For the sake of studying the banking problem in detail and coming to united conclusion it was decided to postpone until next March any pressure on the government. This of course is made possible by the absence of-any direct and immediate crisis on the po- litical and financial horizon, but should the resources of this country be sub iected to any sudden financial strain the consequences might be disastrous
 Already croakers darkly hint ter rible happening that might follow republican rout at the next American elections and they shiver at the thought of what may be the result of the dead- lock over the cotton bills of ladlng. England can no longer hope that policy of "muddling through" will maln- tain her status as a world power Tn finance - Correspondence to the New York Sun.

Finances and Markets

New York, Oct 29-The tone of the market was affected by the atti- tude of the banks towards borrowers. The show of ease in the call market is thought to be deceptive and is due to- the desire of lenders to keep re- sources available for a prompt re- call in expectation of higher rates The approach of the last week of the political canvass makes for specula- tive restraint and depression, through fears of sudden sensational develop ments which might threaten a vio- lent shift in the probability of re- suits.

The Little Toy Dog.

John Kendrick Bangs in Harper's Weekly
Ny little toy-dog is covered with dust,
Like the dog in the dear poets song.
My little steel-cars ars covered with rust
They lain in the garnet so lOngl
The marbles are there. and the soldiers of
tin,
Lie hid IN the old oaken-chest,
And there is the drum, and the trumpets
whose din
| loved in the ages of rest
Each rare little toy az it comes to my
Ny hand that is withered with years.
Brings back to my spirit that beautiful land,
Now yelled in the mist Of my tears
The beautiful land of the Long Long Ago,
The scenes of the playtime of yore
When deep in my soul with it's radiant glow
Shone the sunlight of days now no more.
The little toy-dog Stop, stranger, and bark,
What cherished remembrance it brings
My Daddy-dear Daddy-ah, how he could
bark!
What laughter that memory bringsi
1t echoes, re-echoes, it sounds in my heart,
That bark and those yplpings Of glee,
When Daddy came home from his toll on the
mart,
And played with my dOggie and me!
All. little toy-dog! All. little steel-car!
We treasures Of mind and of soul,
But mid all my prizes, too many by far
To reckon the sum of their whole
Not one OF them oil would take for the Joy,
That now through my memory comes
Of days that are past, when each little toy,
And l, and my Daddy, were chums!
