In Austria there has been formed

In Austria there has been formed a
great association for care in sickness,
which is model in its way. By law
every Austrian has to belong. The
poorer members must pay something
like 20 cents a month. Those who
can't afford to pay are members just
the same. In all the Austrian com
munities treatment is provided for
the minor ailments. For the more
serious diseases patients are sent to
Vienna. The leading physicians in
the country are on the staff, special
lists of world renown.

MONEY.

The week has passed with no develop
ments OF any Importance except as exhib.
tied in the decline OF exchange rates on
New York at San Francisco and in Mon
treal In order that funds could be drawn
from this market. San Francisco secured
its allotment through the local Sub-Treas-
ury amounting to s2oc.co0. while Canada
took from institutions here a total OF
100000 in gold. There were evidences OF
declines in domestic exchange at several
interior points but they did not materially
affect the situation here. The gains of
the local banks for the week made sat-
isfactory showing and since the begin
ming of the year the total gains have ag-
gregated $50, fi,00o. drawn from the inte-
rior, compared with sll3.Gi2,Oo for the
same period of 1912. s92, 1900 in 1911. and
ST.. 900 in 1910.
Call money during the week had rul-
ing rate of per cent. The opening price
was 294 per cent, high per cent, low 2ls
per cent and for renewals "a. per cent.
closing at per cent. An easier tone was
shown in the closing days Of the week in
time money. but there was slight inquiry
and the time money market remained
very dull. Commercial paper showed a
broadening tendency, while rates relaxed
ranging from per cent to 5l2 per cent
for the best names. Banks displayed a
disposition to deal In desirable CONNER
cial paper.
