FALL IN MARK HITS PARIS

Special Cable to THE NEW YORK HERALD.
Copyright. 1897. by THE New YORK HERALD
New York Herald Bureau,
Paris, Oct. %
With all branches of the Bourse show
ing a decided depression last week, the
hesitation of the financial division is
seriously increased by rumors. said to
be well founded. that two important
banks are likely to submit In the near
I future to the same fate as the Banque
ndustrielle de Chine. Until the situa-
tain that month-end liquidations will feel
the ropercussion of these reports, and 1t
is generally prophesied that French
credit organizations are about to un-
dergo a period from which only the
fittest will survive, unless unforeseen
financial settlements are reached with
the United States and England which
Will enable the economic factor to over
balance purely monetary considerations.
The uneasiness of investors last week
was somewhat Influenced by these ru-
mors but the general fall of all quo
tations Is ascribed to two causes easier
to analyze-frst, continued depreciation
of the Mexican eagle, which has for
months been the guide for French In
vestors. and. second, the worthlessness
of the German mark.
Economically however, the country's
condition Is considered satisfactory and
l. providing basis for confidence In
commercial restoration which will i'm
prove the status Of purely French issues.
Although the balance of trade is still
heavy on the side Of imports 1t is notice
able that raw materials necessary for
industries form the greater part
Hitherto this rarely exceeded eight
hundred millions a month, but Septem-
br showed more than billion two hum
dred million.
The conclusion of peace with Angora
Is also taken as good sign for the
future, and this will enable the with
drawal OF French troops from Syria ana
diminish considerably the War Min
istry's budget.
The severity of the action by the
Budget Commission of the Chamber Of
Deputies In demanding that the Govern
ment provide more workable founda-
tions for the budget before IT will be
presented in the Chamber is generally
lauded, and although the problem Is
difficult 1t seems certain that the depu-
ties now appreciate that the era of
hand to mouth" financing can be per-
mtted no longer.
With the failure OF the proposal TO
float Chinese loan in France for the
benefit Of the Banque Industrielle de
Chine, the latter institution will be COM
PEELED to submit to judiciary liquidation.
The weekly balance of the Bank OF
France shows 100000 900 reduction in
advances to the state and double this
In defation, while gold reserves have
increasd 275.o00,0oo The banks dis
| count rates are ~ per cent. for paper.
while cash Is at per cent.

1t is our desire to deal generously
with our advertisers, but frequently
our advertiser will not deal generou5-
ly with US. 1t would be a very great
help to have an advertisement in Our
hands at least the day before it is
TO appear. In case the advertisement
is large it is often impossible for us
80 get it up and in The Times unles $
we have the copy the day before. We
have missed our mails several times
lately in an effort to meet the adj
>rrtiscrs' demands upon such short
notice. This we do not intend to Go
again. The subscriber as well as the
advertiser has rights that we are COM
PEELED to respect. 1t is asking too
much to expect us to take page ad
vcrtisement, say at IL o'clock today
and get it in today's paper. We can
not do it, and hereafter, we do not
intend to attempt it.

Tomorrow is our national Thank
living Day. 1t should be a day OF
real thanksgiving, not a day Of un-
-cemly, riotous living. 1t should be
made the occasion for introspectioi,,
not extravagant expression. To give
thanks to Almighty God, to recount
His mercies and to give praises unto
Him is seemly. To gather together
in the family circle and renew the
bonds of love and friendship is be-
fitting. To enter into more perfect
fellowship with others, TO cultivate a
more generous attitude towards all
and to search ones own heart should
be the aims sought
Let US recount our mercies, giving
thanks therefor; let us rejoice in our
blessings giving God praise for every
one of them; let us seek to walk up
rightly, to act nobly and to worship
devoutly upon this happy Thanksgiv-
ing Day.

For quite a while we have refrained
from exposing the situation that pre-
walls here in the matter Of the sale of
illicit whiskey. But it is incrcaS-
ipgly manifest that Liquid fire" is
flowing quite freely. We respectfully
urge upon our city authorities the
necessity of vigilance. We do net
mean to adjudge All officer harshly.
They are, no doubt, hard put to it
to track down the law-breakers. And
the general public is too often utterly
Indifferent until some frightful mur-
der occurs to galvanize them into ac-
rion. Our honest view of the pres
cnt situation is that it will not be
long ere we will have just such q
tragedy here unless there is a tight
cning of the laws grip.
We do not believe that more than
u score of lawless men are engaged
in the blind tiger business. A GER
tain man recently said: "You can buy
liquor very easily here now" We do
not know just how easily it can be
done for we have never tried to buy
3ny. But the signs are not wanting
that show plainly the fact that some
body is selling it in these parts. Such
individuals are coming to grief, of
that we have not doubt. But those
Of us who desire the enforcement of
The law should not allow conditions TO
get so bad that reaction come
through sheer revulsion.
Union is perhaps no worse thar
other towns and cities. But in sew
cral such towns and cities the peo-
pie have arisen and demanded that il
licit traffic in liquor be put down
And when this has been done, a better
condition has come about. 1t may be
that steps of this nature will have
to be taken here. The great majority
of our people honestly desire the sup
preston of the liquor business. 1t is
a case in which small minority isl
rough shod over the majority.
