London Market Clouded
by Mexican Situation
TBy Cable TO The Tribune. ]

London. April 19.-The Mexican cloud
had a demoralizing effect on the stock
markets last week, but it had little effect
on the money markets. Stocks on all the
bourses Of Europe were down during the
first two days OF the week on news OF the
crisis, but were up again when a peaceful
settlement seemed likely.
Money took much the same course as
discounts. hardening early in the week
and easing off at the last, yesterdays
rates being lower than those OF the pre-
vious week end. Sixty-day bills were at
IL, three months bills at "a, five months
bills at 21-le and six months bills at rs
per cent.
The principal anxiety In London now is
that the extremely low open market rates,
so much below the Continental quota
tions, will cause a loss Of gold 10 the
Continent, the effect of which would be
of course, to create a period Of tight
money here.
All the same South African gold was
snapped up by Paris and ST. Petersburg
last week and $500 was also taken from
London. The return of gold from the
country, however has increased the
banks stock 81 O5O.O0O to 1885, 1909 while
the reserve increased $4,000 to sl2S'-
3l5, 200.
The proportion OF reserve to liabilities
Is now 4.ss.

TOWNS DREW DRUG
BILL, SAYS B0YLAN
Senator Gives Him Credit for
Legislation Aimed at Habit
Forming POisonS.

Senator John J. Boylan, who introduced
the anti-drug bill which was signed last
week by Governor Glynn, in describing
the value of the law which goes into effect
this summer said yesterday that credit
not only for drafting the bill but for its
passage was due in a large measure to
Charles B. Towns, Of 119 West S1st st.
THE idea was his said Senator Boy
Ian, the legitimate, but, l may say. the
surprisingly unselfish outcome Of his long
experience in treating victims Of drug hab-
its. He had previously drawn some
what similar and far less drastic bill.
which | presented to the Legislature last
year. Two years ago he drew and had
presented by Senator McManus the bill
which is now a law, prohibiting in this
state the sale Of hypodermic syringes, eX-
cept upon the prescription Of physician
one Of the most intelligent pieces Of pro-
tective legislation against drugs anywhere
in existence. 1t has been widely copied.
Mr. Townss bill, which is now known
as the Boylan anti habit-forming drugs
law. is part of large constructive and
extraordinarily comprehensive plan de-
vised by him to free the entire nation
from the drug evil, which has taken a
stronger hold here than in any other sec
ton of the world, not excluding China. IL
was drafted with the especial idea that 1t
might become model legislation to be ef-
fectively copied by other states, and was
most particularly designed to dovetail
with proper federal legislation. Of which
he is the author, and which is now be-
fore Congress. in such way as TO pre-
serve the entire nation and teach the
remainder of the world a vital lesson

Olive Branch Seen in Plan
of Republicans for Get
Together Conferences.
SOME PROGRESSIVE
LEADERS DISSATISFIED
Colby Advised He Can Accomplish
Little In Third Party
Ranks.

From a star Correspondent OF The Tribune.l
Trenton, y. j., April le.-Plans are now
in process OF formation by number or
Republican leaders for get together
conference to talk over arrangements for
next falls campaign II is probable that
the conference will be called some time
within the next month. and one OF It's
results. Il is believed, will be a more cor
dial feeling between the Republicans ana
the Progressives, If not entire harmony.
Those who are planning the conference
have declined TO permit their names 10 De
used, but II is understood that II Things
go the way they are expected everything
will be done in the open.
1t has been known for some tine that
such Progressives as Everett Colby. Bor-
den u. Whiting, Ex-Governor Fo't and
Frank B. Jess have become diss itisfied
with the way the Record Blauvelt-C sborne
factions have endeavored to use the Pro-
gressive party for their own selfish pur-
poses.
1t has even been said OF them that prin-
ciples were OF secondary Importance when
there were Jobs to get, and in support or
this II IS asserted that In the recent cam
paign the Record Blauvelt-Osborne crowd
supported tho Democratic candidate for
Governor in preference to Mr. Colby, who
was tho Progressive candidate. There
wasn't any doubt as to how Mr.. Colby
stood on Progressive principles. but APP
parently that did not concern the Record
Blauvelt- Osborne factions. for they did
not disguise the fact that they were sup
porting Mr.. Fielder their excuse for do
ing so being that they wanted TO make
hte defeat Of Mr.. Stokes. the Republican
candidate, sure. Since election Governor
Fielder has rewarded Mr.. Blauvelt with
job, he being the only one of the trio
that did not have one.
Under such circumstances and I'm such
company Mr.. Colby's friends have told
him that It would be useless to continue
to fight for Progressive principles. They
have pointed out to him that he can ac-
complish little or nothing by third
party, and that the only place where he
can accomplish anything is in the Repub-
lican party, fighting In its ranks.
So far as Mr.. Colby is concerned, he Is
keeping his own counsel, but II is looked
upon as a hopeful sign that overtures
have been made by the Progressives In
Essex County for a getting together on
county ticket next fall.
The coming election will be a most i'm
portant one, both nationally and locally.
Twelve Congressman are TO be chosen.
At the present time ten are Democrats.
The control OF the state Legislature is
also at stake. 1t is asserted that If the
old bosses keep in their cyclone cellars
the Republicans have a good chance OF
making "clean up"

army. will have again to be faced and
settled. SexennIal treasury notes are
merely a form OF throwing dust In the
eyes of electors. The big proposed loan
to the fore.
1t seems improbable that the electorate
will give a mandate 10 the new Chamber
and TO the government now in ONCE
TO remodel the whole fiscal system OF
France, a system that has worked well
for a hundred years, at the instigaton
of Radical-Socialist politicians playing
with finance.
