troubles of the Federal Bank.

tion as they stood on the 3lst May. cording to this statement the paid-up capital of the bank on that date was $2, 952,680, and the bank was besides credited with a reserve fund of $1,500,000. On Monday last an official of the bank stated that the reserve had been all lost, though he believed the capital of the bank to be almost intact. Is it possible that the bank lost the amount of its whole Rest of a mil- lion anda half inamonth? The question can only be answered in one way: The bank had no such Rest. Itis now report- ed, whether on authority or not, certainly without contradiction, that the capital of the bank is to be reduced one-half. The fact probably is that the capital of the bank has been actually so reduced, that helf the capital, if a capital of three million ever existed, which is more than doubtful, has been lost as well as the so-called Rest Had the true inwardness of the affairs of the bank been all along known to a dis- interested person who, instead of the manager, had been called upon to make the returns to the Government, how long ago would the return of the Rest have dis- appeared and the capital been reduced! If capitals and rests are mere terms which stand for no actuality, thenthey are mis- leading to the shareholders and to the public, and should be wiped out of the returns altogether. Examinations of the affairs of banks which have suspended have shown time and again that the returns as to discounts, loans, etc., and their character have been totally misleading and always, of course, misleading in the direction of an overestimate of the strength of the banks. The fact is that unless the managers and directors of banks can be relied upon to furnish lionest returns, this system of guarding against trouble is nothing but a snare, and so it has proved in case after case. The returns in no case have furnish- ed more thana hint to the most watchful and experienced men of impending troubles. The returns are not honest in the very cases where the usefulness of the whole statement depended upon their honesty. The Government, in view of the circum- stances, willin all probability consider the advisability of taking other means of in- forming itself of the true condition of affairs | oF the banks. A system of Government inspection is always the resort in such cases. This is the system which obtains in the United States. It has not proved a very great success and bankers, of course, abhor it. Nevertheless it is the best that has yet been devised. Nothing can be less useful than the present system which will have to go. The inspection system if estab- lished should be one of central officers of marked ability, not of numerous local officials who would be capable of doing much harm and little good.

Not Growing Richer this Year.

Ii is very evident that our rich men are not as rich to-day as they were a short time ago. The quotation for Union Pacific, yes- terday, 31, means a shrinkage in that one stock alone of $50,000,000 in a compara- tively brief space of time. Within four months the stocks thrown on the markets as ‘‘the Vanderbilts,” have undergone a shrinkage of $50,000,000. ‘‘The Goulds’ have shrunk $60,000,000 and ‘‘the Huant- tingtons’ $20,000,000 in the same time. When through the decreased value of ee- curities, $400,000,000 is wiped out of exist- ance as it were, when New York Central depreciates $18,000,000, Western Union $20, - 000,000, Union Pacific, $27,000,000, Centeral Pacific, $17,000,000 and Lake Shore, $12,000,000 in a few months, we may well say ‘‘the rich men are not as rich as they were.” Vander- bilt’s fortune alone is $40,000,000 less than it was afew months ago. Will any tears be shed over the collapse of the fat money- bags! Will many sincere mourners follow the shrunken millionaires to the grave ? Not when it is remembered that the greed and unscrupulousness of the money kings have brought about the shrinkage. Not when it is remembered that stock watering, blind pools, gambling, corners and the un- scrupulous use of dishonestly accumulated capital lie at the bottom of the disasters of the present dead and rotten market. Of course there will be pity for the innocent victims who are swollowed up in the shrink- age. But no one will weep for the money | bags. Indeed there will be a feeling of thankfulness if the power of the million- aire monopolists and gamblegs to purchase elections, corrupt administrations, courts and congresses and tread on the necks of the people should be effectually and per- manently destroyed.—N. Y. World.

Farm Notes.

Sheep droppings, compressed into solid cakes about two inches thick, are now pre- pared for florists’ use. It is claimed that while it promotes growth in an extracrdin- ary degree it will not injure plants, even if used immoderately, and that the liquid from it does not form crusts and shelter for insects on the surface of the pots. A bag of 100 pounds is $3, and the same in powder $3.50.

According to the best evidence obtainable on the subject there is more profit to the

) Neither soil nor climate in this country is favorable for the maintenance of such pastures here.

A New York farmer, who was in the habit of rejecting the grains of corn that grow on the tip of the cobs, planted a con- siderable quantity of them in a field devoted to beets for the purpose of marking the rows. It was his intention to pull up the corn-stalks when the beets required the ground. The corn came up, but the beets did not. The stalks of corn being abcut two feet apart were therefore allowed to grow. They produced a much larger mount of grain than the stalks grown from kernels taken from the middle of the ear.

The death of Ira S. Todd, a farmer in

Tolland, Conn., from glanders, was recent-

jly reported. Todd purchased a horse from

a travelling trader, and essayed treatment of the animal for glanders by blowing smoke into his nostrils, and other ways, by which he came in close contact with the beast. A short time after he had symp- toms resembling those of pneumonia, and finatly had blotches and gatherings on his body and an excessive nasal discharge Physicians pronounced it glanders, and their treatment was ineffectual, as the dis- ease was considerably advanced before they were called. A local veterinary surgeon says several such cases have occurred in Connecticut. Angra Pequena.

To a South African delegation that waited upon him some weeks ago with regard to the German inquiries as to Angra Pequena, Lord Derby said he had not the smallest apprehension of the question between the two Governments leading to any unpleas- antness, The place had never been claimed as British territory, but there was an understanding that the British had a right to exclude foreign powers from the coast up to the Portuguese territory. The Ger- man Government, as he understood, had merely made inquiries as to the nature of England’s claims, but had not disputed them. The former was anxious to provide security for German merchants trading at that point, and thought that if England would not undertake the responsibility, the German government might be permitted to do so. Some months ago jt had been pro- posed to Cape Colony by the Colonial Office to take over Angra Pequenaand assume the maintenance of it. But no decision had been arrived at, as he had lately telegraph- ed to Cape Colony himself on the subject. It happened just then that there was a ministerial crisis and the authorities had asked for a little time to make up their minds. Lord Derby laid stress on the notion that Germany was not a colonizing power and had no intention to occupy new possessions in distant parts of the world.

- _- How to Become an Idiot.

The New York Herald in a recent article on the tobacco curse says that if we’would encourage idiocy in the United States, all we have to do is to continue the present consumption of tobacco, It adds: ‘*What sight is more common than half a dozen boys, lads and young men smoking cigar- ettes an the platform of a bob-tail car! And what more trying to one’s nerves than the filthy odors they puff into the car and over the other passengers! Ten years of this almost universal habit have left their mark in the sunken eyes, the pallid face, the weak nerves and the flabby muscles of these so-called men. That many of them find no real enjoyment in the practice is shown by their habit of spitting. Aside from the vulgarity and nastiness of this muscular exercise is the detriment it does the general system. No man—certainly no growing boy—-can expectorate constantly without injuring himself. Bootblacks, messenger boys, school children, clerks, smoke and spit, smoke and spit, as together in a great and multitudinous army they move aiong toward idiocy and imbelicity. What a cheerful prospect it is, to be sure '”’
