 total productive operations of the bank
 in 1910 amounted to $4.919. .369.S SIS.

 There was. on the other hand. a di- minution of S1S.553.514 in the purchases. sales and advances on bullion and for eign coins. The cash reserve. which amounted to S793.S09. 0O0 on December 24th. was S53.943.5OO lower on the year. including both gold and silver. Gold
 was parted with for the discount of London bills with the certainty that it
 would return later. and silver legal tender coin was demanded by countries of the Latin Union to strengthen their cash reserves. The rates of discount and advances remained unchanged dur ing the year. while they underwent nine variations in London. three at Berlin, four at Brussels and Amsterdam. and five in Switzerland. In none of those countries was the discount below the invariable rate of per cent of the Bank of France. The discounts at the bank amounted to S2.S14,075,25i. an in- crease of S433.161.074 on the year.

ASKS HELP TO PAY FOR HIS
 OWN FUNERAL.

Many a good story lies tucked away in the records of the charity offices. The last report of the Joint Applica- ton Bureau in New York has a grist of them There was the travel-worn young man who asked for assistance in selling large manuscript of poetry which he had written and brought all the way to New York from his home in Florida A drunk ard who was cured in an institution to which the bureau sent him was most grateful because it is the first time in years I have been able to eat a hearty breakfast. Before this it consisted of whiskey and the shakes" " A newly welded couple asked that the Eroom's father be called upon for return fare for the honeymoon. The reply by telegram was prompt and highly expressive in it's ten words: "I will not send you money. Try your wife. Sorry"
 There were others of a most curious nature like the old man whose sole occupation was building fires for Jews on Saturday, and the man who wanted help in saving part of the money spent on ms own funeral. he had been taken from Bellevue to City Hospital without notice to his fam ily They had identified a body in the morgue as his and held a $200 funeral. The day after he returned to find them in mourning, and, he said, it was the greatest disappointment of his life to have all of that money wasted
 These. of course. are the exceptional cases. for the Joint Application Blu reau ministers year in and year out seven days in the week, from nine in the morning until midnight. to more than 3S.000 people in twelve months from the half-nourished infant in his monther's arms to the homeless man of eighty asking for work.-The Sur vey.

+ Finances and Markets /


New York. Aug. 4-The stock mar
ket today continued its downward
tendency by establishing a number
of new low records for the present
movement. All classes of stocks par
ticipated in the decline. In the early
hours of the session the list had
manifested some disposition towards
recovery, being aided by the better
demand for our shares in London.
Standard Oil which showed weak
ress, its net loss today being sixteen
points. was again a factor and SEN
sational upward movement in cotton
options was viewed with some con-
Germ.
The offerings of Steel were on a
larger scale today than for some
time aggregating over 100000 shares.
The stock was the weakest of the
active group, making a net decline
of % points Other issues that
showed pronounced heaviness includ-
ed the electrical stocks. American
Smelling, the coppers. the Hartman
and Hill shares. Reading, Lehigh Val
ley. Texas company, Interboro-

ion Gas and LacIede Gas declined
ranging from to Az points. Final
prices were at the days lowest level
the whole list rejecting a state of
decentralization. Following the close
of the market, it was reported that
much of the selling resulted from the
closing of accounts because of i'm
paired margins.
In the general excitement Of the
day little attention was paid to the
money market, the feature of which
was an advance in four months

cent, the highest rate for that period
quoted this year. Bonds were weak

Postoffice Nomenclature.

For many years the people of Cali
fornia have been trying to get the
postoffice department to spell the
names of sundry places in that state
according to the wishes of the in
habitants For some strange reason
the department objects strenuously to
two-word name for a town, and its
policy of telescoping such names re-
suited for awhile in ridiculous desig-
nations for places that had Spanish
names of two words. The depart
ment finally returned to the proper
style, so far as concerned most OF
the Spanish named places. but it still
insists that Douglas Flat shall be
Douglasflat; Indian Gulch is Indian
gulch. Little Rock is Littlerock, Lem
on Grove is Lemongrove, Ocean
Park is Oceanpark. Ocean Side is
lOceanside. Willow Ranch is Willow
ranch, and so on.
For many years the people of Long
Beach vainly appealed to have the
department abandon its pet designa-
ton of Longbeach. and when the CEN
sus showed that their city had made
the greatest gain of all California
cities, they howled louder than ever
for the postmark of Long Beach.
The postmaster supported his con-
stituents in their contentious, and as
an incident to his campaign he is
to lose his job The department,
finally acceding to the request. an
nounced that "Longbeach" would be
Long Beach hereafter. but it would
be necessary to issue a new COM
mission to the postmaster. The poll
ticians. hearing that a new appoint
ment had to be made. persuaded the
congressman for that district to rec
ommend a new man. and so the old
postmaster will go out.
The system of the department in
Officially spelling the names of post
loffices seems to follow a hidden rule
that cannot be guessed. For in
stance, as to certain postoffices in
Arizona, why should Iron Springs be
lIronsprings. while the department is
willing that Peach Springs, Lewis
Springs and Hot Springs shall be
spelled as two words? Why Groom
Creek, and Cavecreek? And Quartz
tie will be Quartzsite for all time.
we suppose, simply because the clerks
in the department don't know that
Ouartzite means something, whereas
,Ouartzsite is a senseless word.

Mexican Unrest.

The political fortunes of Don
Francisco I. Madero are not so prom
Using as they were a month ago.
Immediately following his triumphal
entry into the Mexican capital, 1T ap-
peared that he would have no seri-
Gus opposition for the presidency.
General Bernardo Reyes, just re-
turned from his exile, announced that
he had agreed to accept the position
of secretary of war in president
Madero's cabinet" in the event of
the election Of the revolutionary
leader. and it seemed that a walkover
was assured Madero by his alliance
with the powerful Reyes. But Cen
eral Reyes found that his friends
did not approve the published ar
rangement. They wanted him to run
for president. Yielding to the i'm
portunities of his friends, Reyes last
week announced that he had relieved
Senior Madero from the promise to
and he has followed this statement
by announcing his own candidacy
for the presidency.
The opposition of Reyes alone
would be sufficient to make the re-
suit of the coming election uncer-
tain, and the situation has been still
further complicated by the appear
ance of Emilio Vasquez Gomez as a
candidate. Gomez, during the insur-
rection, was one of Madero's stead
fast supporters, and following the
downfall of the Diaz government Go
mez was appointed by the provisional
president to be secretary of guber-
nacion. at the request of Madero.
On Wednesday of this week Co
mez was dismissed from the cabinet
by President de la Barra, with the
approval of Madero, it is generally
assumed, since the provisional presi-
dent is closely following the wishes
of Madero in all his important acts.

PHOENIX, ARIZONA, AUG. 5, 1911
Statehood in the Balance.

Judging from the chorus Of ap-
prevail heard on the streets yester-
day from democrats and republicans
alike. the telegram sent to Senator
Borah by the editor of The Republi-
can in reply to the senator's inquiry
was a very accurate expression of
public opinion in Phoenix.
The editors of the two democratic
papers of Phoenix, the Democrat and
the Sun, agree with The Republican
that the people of this community
are practically unanimous in their
Willingness to eliminate the judiciary
recall from the constitution if that
be necessary in order to secure state
hood.
And with the exceptions stated in
the telegram to Senator Borah, the
sentiments of this community are,
we are convinced, the sentiments of
Arizona people generally We of
course dismiss from consideration the
few noisy politicians who think their
ambitions to get office are improved
by bowling for the recall or moth
ing"
Citizens of this territory generally
would deeply regret the loss of state
hood through an unwise insistence
upon retaining the judiciary recall
in the constitution. As a matter of
fact, the average citizen is entirely
willing that the recall shall remain
in the constitution until the expert
ment is fully tried, provided We can
get statehood with it. The average
citizen has enough faith in his
recall will be largely a dead letter,
even if it remains in the constitu-
ton. Therefore the recall causes no
worriment, so far as local affairs
are concerned. But it is a subject of
worry, as a probable ground for the
defeat of statehood at Washington.
The next few days will tell the
tale Citizens who really desire state
hood should take the trouble to tele-
graph senators and representatives
with whom they are acquainted. to
the effect that Arizona wants state
hood above everything else; and that
if we cannot get statehood with the
recall of the judiciary included. we
are willing to drop the recall from
the constitution. To democratic SEN
ators. especially. the sentiments Of
Arizona democrats should be made
clear.
Arizona republican., 1911-08-05

Gomez celebrated his dismissal by
Announcing his candidacy for the
presidency. He of course will, to the
extent of his following, draw from
the Madero forces. which will be TO
the advantage of Reyes.
If the presidential campaign closes
without another revolutionary out
break, Mexico viii be exceedingly
fortunate; and in any case Senior
Madero will know that he has been
in a contest before he defeats Reyes.

NEW FRUIT FOR A TREE.

From the New York Sun.
Policeman" exclaimed an agitated
elderly woman on Riverside Drive the

The policeman began to speak
soothingly.

More than once in his career the
policeman had peered in those trees
for canary birds and parrots. This
was new one There on a twig sat
pair of rimless glasses.
The woman had been riding on top
of one of the Fifth Avenue buses and
a low hanging branch had swished
across her face The policeman stop
