tiFAV YORK, Jnn. 27. Henry Clews, head
of the banking house of Henry Clews & Co.,
In his review of the week In Wall street.
Bays:
The Wnll street bcom still maintains Its
life with wonderful tenacity. It shows
home abatement In Its activity, the volumo
of Its dally transactions havlnx fallen from
the maximum of about S.0y" shares to
u minimum of about l.ow.w) shares the
latter, houeer. beln far above the former
ordinary average. This Implies a consider
able extent of realizing, which has been
apparent equally In the home and Hum
pean markets and in the metropolitan and
provln-ial Added to large bona llde realiz
ing" there Iiiih nlo been considerable Inllu
rntlnl bear manipulation In the Interest of
partlis who have large special undertakings
in hand, which have been hindered rather
than helped by a high find steadily rising
market. These parties appear to have had
considerable success In their tactics for de
pressing prices and perhaps all the more
so from the willingness of large bull hold
ers to facilitate a drop In quotations and
thereby make i.n opportunity for their get
ting Ino the market again on a lower scale
of values. Whether from lnstinit or upon
u tnrlt understanding, this latter class of
operators seem to have felt that a tempo
rary realizing was quit- safe and have been
entirely willing to help the promoters of the
reconstruction schemes to lay In a consld
irablo volume of stocks for purposes that
would revive the general bull spirit and
prolong the vitality of the boom. Anyhow,
the last week's movement Ills this theory
nnd will b- generally accepted as explulnlng
u quite remarkable drift of prices After u
lw days of active Helling. In which prices
declined '.' to ft points, orders for large
blocks of certain stocks, supposed to lie
concerned in the rehabilitation plans, e-inie
on the market, with the result of a general
recovery In prices, but especially in those
specialties. How far these particular wants
have been sallsiled It Is not easy to Judge,
but It Is t be supposed that when the
stocks needed In pursuance of thoe plans
have been procured we shall witness fit si
u steii,nliig-up process and then a very gen
eral effort to realize prollts.
Hardly Mi ft to I'orcciixl.
It Is hardly safe, however, to forecast In
this matter, for few know to what lengths
there corporate readjustments may be car
ried. Homo people are conlldent that a
great ileal of corporate reconstruction Is
overhnnglng the market. It Is said that the
trust principle is entering the railroad sys
tem and will be pushed by large capitalists
as a menns of restraining the competition
which for twenty curi has been playing
havoc with earnings. It Is estimated that
this end will in accomplished less turougi;
direct consolidations of separate toads or
through leases or capitalistic commitments
than by large co-operative alliances of
stockholders In groups of companies which,
through becoming mutually Interested In
each of tho several lines, will be enabled to
administer the entire group upon a com
mon policy iih to rates and distribution of
trallle, the organization of the several roads
being kept Intact, while their relations would
be co-oiioratlve. So ninny tk-tltloiis stories
about liuge schemes of tluanclul recon
struction of one kind or another are atloat
that It Is dllllcult to say what Is true and
what Is Invented for mere speculative effect.
Certain plans more or less of this natuio
are now In process of execution and that
may have HUggehtcd to sanguine operators
u probability that a scheme so full of specu
lative possibilities may run to great lengths
and lay the basis for a wide expansion of
the campaign now In process. That there
aro belluvers In these rose-colored prospects
Is plain from tho extraordinary persistence
of the bull reeling and the. continued heavy
buying of specialties for reasons not very
obvious. It seems, however, very Improb
able that experienced llnantiers should un
dertake large operations of such a character
when Wall street Is at the climax of nn
unprecedented speculation In all kinds of
securities. True, these nro entirely ex
traordinary times In American lluauce and
there Is no saying what may not happen In
tho way of speculative ventures, but then,
Is such n thing oh reality in llnauce and
those who Ignore It must be prepared for
the risks. I'"or my own part I counsel a
moderate and conservative attitude In the
situation us it now stands.
I5ffttt of (tueea'N Illness.
The llrst effect of the sickness of Queen
Victoria was to impose a check on buying
both at London nnd New York. Her de
cease, however, has been tollowed by a
rcvivul of conlldcncc. The loss to the world
of Its noblest character and greatest mon
urch has had a remarkably sobering effect
on political passion at the moment when
It has risen to a pitch of unusual danger.
Huch an appeal to the higher sentiments, at
a period ot international jealousy inuameii
to the verge of outburst. Is Invaluable as a
restorer ot nubile amities and men feel that
the unprecedented exhibition ot sympathy
which the (lueen's death has evoked Is
worth no little for the cause of the world s
peace and hope that it may Initiate u relic
tion from the high political tension now
prevailing among the leading powers. Many
who had feared that the queen's removal
would mean nu outbreak of International
animosities now see In It c. possible basis
for the healing of piiltlcnl enmities, ru
der these circumstances the nrriit event
has rather contributed to the consolida
tion of conlldcncc In tlnanclul circles than
to Its unsettlemeut.

HKRMN, Jan. 27 The news of the death
of Queen Victoria affected the German
bourses very slightly, although some reali
zation selling was caused In consequence of
the closing of the London Stock exchange.
The stagnation of tho provlous weeks con
tinued, the only department showing any
life last week being the domestic govern
ment funds. In this department the grow
ing abundance of money and tho success
of Haxnn loans, together with the Increasing
distrust In Industrials and American securi
ties, caused lively buying nnd the week was
the best these funds had seen for months.
Imperial and Prussian loans rose more than
I per cent for the week. Pressure of the
public for government recurltles Is growing
nnd It affects also the market for American
railroad shares.
The Frankfurter ijeltung reports much
selling of Americans at Frankfort for In
vestment In government 3s and It ton
tlniies to warn the public ngalnst buying
Americans at the present prices. On the
Ilerlln oourse the Americans vacillated
sharply during the week, tho German pub
lic continuing to sell. Foreign railroad
bonds showed nn Increased demand, but
Germany continues to sell Italian and Swiss
railroad shars while the Swiss market
buys Swlxs railroad shares hero con
tlnuoiily. These movements caused largo
arrivals of foreign money, for which there
was little demand, Increasing tho ease of
the money market and depressing tho pri
vate rate of discount to 3. yesterday's fall

usual In the middle ot tho monthly settle
ment, but the M'ttlctnent shows uncom
monly light engagements and Is passing off
most smoothly.

The Kelchsbauk returns, published yes
terday, show a strong return, but owing to
the quietness of the market the Central
bank has decided not to change the olllclal
rate of discount. At yesterday's meeting
llerr Koch, president of tho Itelrhsbank,
pointed out that the liuuk of Knglnlul
maintained a 5 per cent rate. "The emis
sion of business here," ho continued, "Is
very active, the polltlenl situation Is not
fully cleared up, foreign exchange Is rather
higher, even above the gold point, and
caution, therefore, demands the mainte
nance of r per cent." The market, however,
believes that a reduction will come by Feb
iimry 10, or before, if tho Hank of Kngland
reduces Its rate.
Hank of Kngland shares were weak, on
the conviction that Increased capital would
be mado nt tin early day. Hank stock was
stronger on rumors of better results for

the management of the Ulscouto Gcssel

early In the week, but they fell off later

STARTLING COMPARISON CENTURY AGO
Nearl One-Half of That Which This

Agricultural Products,
WASHINGTON. Jnn. 27.-Frnnk H
Hitchcock, chief of the section ot foreign
markets of tho Agricultural department,
has Just Issued an annua! review of the
trnilo of the United States In agricultural
products. The report says:
Tho fiscal year K"j brought to a close a
century of marvelous development In the
history of United States commerce. In lSf,
a century ago, the total value of the mer
chandise Imported and exported In our
trade with foreign countries was consider
ably less than tZoi,M.(io. The value or tho
goods exchanged during the last llscnl year
reached nearl K.'.'Jo.inm.nOi, far exceeding all
previous records. Since the opening of the
century our commerce with the rest of the
world hns Increased more thnn twelvefold.
It was chlelly In the export trade that the
enormous growth of the century occurred.
Uur domestic exports during ltMo, with a re
corded value of Jl..'170,7'i3,671. Were over forty
times as large as In 1800. The total Imports
for urn, on the other hand, amounting in
value to $M9.!I1,IM, were less than ten times
as large as In 1-Sun.
Compared with the value of our Imports
for 1!") that of our domestic exports showed
an excess of j;20.22.57.
Of tho merchandise Imported from foreign
countries during the llscnl year U, about
19 per cent consisted of agricultural prod
ucts. These products had an aggregate
value of S120.1S0.3S1. exceeding by almost
tri.WA',C" the record of the year before.
Hides, silk and wool were tho leading fac
tors In tho growth, although vegetable
fibers, sugar and tobacco ulso showed Im
portant gains. The six Items mentioned
contributed nearly Jii,hh),i.K) to the Increaso
In vnlue.
Agriculture Product-- Sold Abend.
Products of United States agriculture
were marketed abroad In the llscnl year ISM)
to the value of OlilkW, forming about C2
per cent of the domestic exports. With tho
ulnglc exception of I8US the last year wit
nessed the largest annual export trade In
farm produce on record. The valuo at
tained came within $l.".f"0.0"0 of the phe
nomenal llgures or 1W nnd surpassed those
for ivy b.v mole than $00,000,000. A consid
erable portion of the Increase over 1899 was
accounted tor by the higher prlco of cot
ton. The exports of this great stuple, al
though Hinaller In quantity than during tho
preceding year, exhibited an advance of
nearlv $;i.'l,(n),(io In value. Aside from cot
ton the largest gains In vulne were those af
forded by tho exports of meat products and
live slock. Tobacco, fruits and nuts,
vegetable oils, oil cake and oil cuko meal,
dairy products nnd seeds also furnished
examples of Increase.
A comparison of tho value of our agricul
tural exports for Urn with that of our agri
cultural Imports shows that tho former
exceeded the latter by $121,40,119. Tho ex
pat I value was slightly more than double
the amount of the Import value.
Among the agricultural Imports of the
United States lor the llscnl year 11)0 the
leading Items, named In the order of value,
were: Sugar, hides nnd sklnH, coffee, silk,
vegetable libers, wool, fruit and nuts, to
bacco, tea, wines, vegetable oils and
cocoa. Theso twelve Items compilsed In
value 90 per cent of our entire Import trade
In the producta of foreign ngrlculture dur
ing the year.

Our exports of brendstuffs during lMti,
although far exceeding In value tho aver
age for precedlui; years, show a slight
falling off when compared with the ex
(cptlonally heavy shipments of 189 and
1SJ9. The exports for 1S9S, amounting I:'
value to $233,897,119, were by far the largest
on record. In 1899 the export trade nmnun'o 1
to $273.999.i!9. tills value being In excess of
any previously reported, except thnt ,ust

1899
Decline In llreiulsl off UvporlN.
The decline In the export value of nrcid
sluffs recorded for 19no was traceable chiefly
to n falling off In the shipments of wheat.
Accompanying the decline In vvhc it ship
ments there was n further Increase In
tho export of corn, and for the llrst time
in the history of the trade the to'.il ex
pert value of corn exceeded that of vvhc it.

nual export price per btiuhel for 19I0 was
10.7 cents, against 39. C centa for 1890.
Tho nmount of American cotton supplied
to foreign countries1 during inm) was some
what less than In the iirec.ll.ig year, th"
export record being 3.12tl,223,58,s pounds, or a
fnlllrg off of Wl, 193,531 pounds from 1899.
Owing to an a.lvainc In the average yearly

A gcntlemon who hns tho management of
a business that requires a large number ot
negroes said to ono of his employes re
cently: "Sam. the colored people aro a
wonderful pcopte, are they not?"
It was dinner time, relates tho Savannah
Ncwi), nnd Sam looked up from his tin
dinner kettle nnd replied: "Yes. sah. They
can get 'long with less money and havo
more loafing time than any peoplo 1 know
of. They aro heap better than white folks.
They don't have anything to worry them.
You know, boss, colorrd people got their
eating for almost nothing, nnd. If they
don't drink whisky, a Uttlo money goes a
long way with them. If n colored man has
friends nround town he can nlways get a
good dinner, a regular white man's dinner,
for nothing. White folks don't object to
their cooks giving a colored man dinner
occasionally and if he has n few acquaint
ances who cook he gets on very well In the
eating line. Of course some colored men
have to 'keep house.' hut that don't alvvnys
prevent them from going around, nnd don't
make living cost much, becauso his old
woman. If he has one. takes In washing or
docs othor things to help nlong. And, boss,
you know, colored men get nlong Just ns
well slnglo ns married or married as
single.
"Yes, sab, the colored folks aro n won
derful peoplo. Anybody's clothes fits them.
Your clothes will fit me. A colored man
with your clothes on, nnd with his shoes
blacked, looks Just ns well ns a white mnn
with a new $73 suit. He don't mind wearing
any whllo man's clothes, never mind what
his size Is; they will At, or ho will mako
them do so.
"Then, boss, you know n colored man enn
sleep nnywhere. He don't wnut a bed. He
can lie right down here nnd sleep. This
plnnk Is good enough for me. And you
know the colored man. If ho Is civil and
handy, ran get lots of good things from
whlto people for nothing. I mean from
people down this way. I don't know how
It Is In tho north, or up tho country. I
nln't got n thliig on me now that cost mo n

"Yes, boss, colored people Is the Lord's
people. Ho takes care of them. If a colored
man don't get along In the world better
than a whlto mnn It Is his own fault. The
colored man, snh. Is Jest what you say of

There nro vast tracts of land nlong our
sencoasts and adjoining tho great lakes
either composed entirely of sand or con
stantly subject to tho damage done by sand
drirts. The regions nllllcte.l by this un
friendly element aro liable to be devastated
at any time, says n writer In Pearson's
Magazine. What the rare blizzard and still
rarer cloudburst sometimes Inflict upon
other communities these may expect with

whllo tho trallle Is delayed. Dry sand Is
swept over tho fields to the Injury of the
farmers' crops and tho sandy belts aro en
croaching year by year upon the fertile soil.
A large portion of our river and harbor ap
propriations each year goes for repairing
damages caused by the nctlon of wind nnd
water on tho sand and tho very existence
of certain harbors has been, on more than
one occasion, threatened by this danger.
Kor centuries the countries b.v th sen
have endured tho evils nrlslng from this
condition nnd have sought with Indifferent
success to iesen them, it seems, however,
that nature has provided an ample remedy
for her own curse In the form of certain
ernsRon Ihi.t prnu' In hi. mil wastes Wlipr

transformed tne desolate snores or unscony
Into fertile fields and forest lands.
At an eatly date In our history the New
Kngland states realized the value of theso
grasses nnd passed laws for their preserva

them nnd In some instances committees
were formed und given authority to enter

tions ny tno worn oi sticii committees.
For many years tho government at Waah
tngton has, through tho bureau of agricul
ture, been investigating tlie nature of sand
grasses. It has learned what other coun
tries have accomplished with them. It has
brought specimens from all lands and gath
ered them by the hundreds, representing
every Known variety growing wild in tins
country. It has studied their nature and
habits, experimented with them under nil
possible conditions nnd finally It hns made
a number of trial Plantings in the niiiidy
reulons nlong the shores of Massachusetts,
California and Florida.
Other nations with greater deserts of
sand In their country than those of thin

experiments. If they prove successful we
may expect to see a gradual disappearance
of such places in Furope which have for
centuries stood ns almost Insurmountable
barriers to the progiess of civilization.

Is Charged with Ignorluu:,
CHICAGO, Jnn. 27. On tho eve of the
American league meeting to perfect Its
organization for the coining base ball sea
son, to formnlly complete tho signing of
tho ten-year agreement and to turn over
in trust to President Johnson the ground
leases nnd 51 per cent of the stock cf he
eight clubs In tho league, tho American
tenguc mngnntes mndo a public stntcment
tonight. It deals with the causes and con
ditions which led to tho present strained
relations between tho American league nnd
the Nntionnl league.
President Dan Johnson stated tonight
thnt ho hnd written Nick Young of tho
National league tolling him why tho Amcr-
lenn tenguo must nsk modifications In the
national agreement nnd gavo out n letter
sent to tho latter, enumerating theso rea
sons. Ho stated that President Hatt of
the Chicago club had agreed to present
arguments of tho Amerlcnn league nt the
Nntionnl league meeting In December. At
first It wns thought Mr. Hnrt hnd not dono
so. Mr. Johnson asserted that Inter ho
found that Mr. Hart had kept his promise,
but that tho National league had absolutely
refused to consider any proposition for a
friendly conference.
Johnson's Letter to Yoinm.
The following Is a copy of tho letter
sent by Han Johnson to Nick Young on Oc
tober 31. when President Young tele
graphed for the mutual payment for pro
tection tinder tho Nntionnl ngrccment:
Your telegram was received. I wlrel
In reply that I should writ- concerni ig
the mutter. Tho plnn of the American
Icagtin to enter eastern territory has been
well defined and I think the men of the
National league thoroughly understand our
position In the matter.
For two years we have been menaced bv
tho possible formation of a league hostile
to our Interests, nnd a detriment In ma v
wnvs to orcnnlzed bnse ball. This anno il
agitation Is hurtful and we propose so to
snupe our organization ns to cnecKinaio ii
In the future.
In extending our circuit to tlie far enst
It Is unreasonable to think we could ccn
1 1 f mo nlong the old lines prescribed by the
national agreement. New conditions must
niter lu part our relations with the Natl ma!
league. This Is n matter I have discussed
Intormally with some of your members.
It was suggested by Mr. Hart thnt a com
mittee from tho Amerlcnn league confer
with n committee from tho Nntionnl loagae
relative to the purchase of the bar" nil
plants ut Washington ami Haltlmorc
Other matters can be considered and i.d
Jusled at that meeting. The club mem'jera
of the American league are unalter inly
oppnsed to u continuation of the drifting
system. We cannot renew our obligations
under tho present agreement. Should com
plications arise they will be of National
iengue making. If fairness and common
sense prevail there can never be nny fr-e-tlon
between tho Nntionnl nnd American
Icngues

Millions of Ilrltlsh Coin Illsopprnrs
from (irciiliitlon .Mititinlly.
The world Is full of millions nnd millions
of long-lost sovereigns, the Ilrltlsh equiva
lent almost of our $5 gold piece A compe
tent authority has Just completed some In
vestigations which, he declares, show that
In three years the Hank of Hnglaud has lost
trace of no fewer than 20,(jii,(io golden coins
of the realm. This wholesale disappearance
of the elusive sovereign hns been going on
for years. A river of gold has flowed un
ceasingly from the Hank of Kngland to nil
parts of the world, but It has come back
only us a tiny yellow streamlet What has
become of tho surplus In Its wanderings''
"Misers" Is the tinpoetical explanation for
n great part of this disappearance. There
still exist peoplo who nro unbuslnessllkn
enough to hoard up gold nnd keep It lying
Idle by them for tho sole pleasure of know
ing It Is there and occasionally counting It.
The people of India appear to be particu
larly addicted to u habit that Is morn rem
iniscent of medieval times than of nn ngo
when money Is generally saved so that
morn can bo inudo with It. In tho regency
of Itonibay It Is estimated that 12,in).0oO
golden sovereigns nre hoarded. If (hat Is
tho record of Hombay alone what Is the full
tale for the whole country? China, too, ab
sorbs u vast annul nt of gold that never
sees tho light again. As a matter of fact,
whllo tho whole world Is searching for nnd
trying to acquire gold u goodly part of It
appears to be engaged In the less thrilling
pastime of hiding It away.
Oreat Urltaln Is not gulltltMS of this com
mercial sin. Dotteil nil over tho kingdom
nre graveyards of gold which If discovered
und opened might restore to circulation a
vast amount of wealth nt present abso
lutely useless. At n spot ubout two miles
from Herefordshire Heacon n treasure chest
Is recorded In tho local history us having
been burled by a great family once resident
In tho district. H.tt the money cannot ba
found. Thete Is a similar record lu connec
tion with Ilulme castle, formerly n sent of
n. branch of tho Prestwich family. Some
where near Stokesey castle, Shropshire,
there Is believed to bo hidden a great oak
chest llPi-.l with gold coins, but up to the
present nil efforts to find It havo ended In
failure.

" 'No, snh, 1 guess not," he replied.

" 'Yes, sab.'

" 'No, snh ' "
"I waited ten minutes for him to explain,

" 'Do objlck, snh,' ho repented without

waving his hand townrd tho entrnncc of tho
place.
"Oh," remarked his friend, "don't let that
feeling worry you; you know I'm somewhat

took the mnn with a thirst by tho arm and
