WASHINGTON Nov 1.-THE senate

YANKEES TO BID

Following the trend of the times which
is developing in the constantly growing
disposition among business men and
bankers to prepare to meet the coming
trade expansion movement the Bank of
British West Africa has moved from its
old Offices at 8 Wall street and taken
larger quarters at 100 Beaver street.
where 1t will occupy the entire ground
floor. This is of particular Significance,
rs II Is taken as a forecast OF q strenu-
Gus bid for American business from the
markets OF north and west Africa.
The Bank Of British West Africa is
the strongest of the British banks OPP
Grating IN the British crown provinces
OF west and north Africa. and has a
wide organization throughout Egypt, Mo-
Socco. Canary Islands, Gambia, French
ivory and gold coasts/and Ashanti, Togo
land. Nigeria and Fernando Pc. The
change from its old Offices in Wall street
which 1t has occupied for many years, is
therefore significant OF the future.
r. r. Appleby, agent of the bank in
this city. is especially optimistic of the
African British crown provinces. Be-
SIDES being potentially the richest unde-
veloped colonial possessions of Great
Britain he declares them, even in their
present state of undevelopment, to be i'm
nensely rich. especially In the products
