    LONDON FINANCIAL REVIEW ,
Week's Monoj Market Pimply In a State of
Stagnation.
GERMANY BECOMES A BUYER OF GOLD ,
Financial .Situation In A morloa Closely
Studied by the HpooulntorH of
the Continent with a View
of
LONDON , AUR. 10. During the past wcok
builncsR In the money marKet was simply In
a state of stagnation. The discounts were yt
per cent for months nnd % per cent for
shorts , with nothing doing , ( jcrmany has
been a buyer of gold but not enough so to
pltnr the position. The enormous amount of
bankers balances weighs down tbo market
nnd continues to nrolong n period of un
healthy case. Tlio financial situation In
Now Vork Is watched anxiously.
Kxports of cereals are coming to
Europe , while on the ether hand
tlio operation of the now American tilrlff li
beginning to palpably effect exports to the
.United States. The IJrltlsh public has
Imofct entirely ceased buying American
securities mid keep on the watch to roall/o
iminrdlatoly when \Vnll street puts up
prices.
On the stock exchange the dullness was
accentuated at the beginning of the wecU by
unfavorable reports from Ilorlln where the
full In rouble notes and Russian securities
Ri-iicridly caused a weakness. Later In the
week another cause of uneasiness was the
suspension of an important firm at Trieste ,
Although no direct los * will accrue to the
creditors of the llrm , the incident hni
been a reminder of tha general uncertainty.
Dealings during- the past WCUK had the char
acter of those of the previous weelc. High
class Investments continue to oo In favor.
Hritish funds show a rise of ! .f percent.
Kiipeo paper was Hat , In sympathy with
stiver. In foreign securities Argentine
National advanced \yt \ per cent after
tbo receipt of telegrams announcing
that the Argentine scnnto had
voted In favor of the repeal of tbu three
months moratorium.
In English railways values tended
downward. The discouraging nature
of the bonrd of trade report
returned , combined with bad trafllc , caused
an average fall ofyt \ per cent. In American
railroads the interest centered In Union I'a-
cilie. The manifold rumors about the finan
cial pOHltlon of the company caused continu
ous fluctuations. The lowest price reached
was 'X.per \ cent , and yesterday's closmir
price was Ho'4 ' per cent. Yesterday's dealIngs -
Ings , taken altogether , showed an Immense
revival of English buying of American rail
road securities. Whether it is n mera spasm
of activity remains to boloon , Considerable
street business suggests that a permanent
limber level of values Is about to bo estab
lished.
Variations for the week ! n prices of Amer
ican railway securities include the following :
Increases Northern Pacific , 2J4 per cent ;
Wabash debentures , UJf per cent ; Erie mort

Ni\v : YOIIK , Aug. 10. In my last week's
survey of the Inlluencos affecting the stock
market , 1 gave special prominence to a sot of
factors which might bo construed favorable
to the Helling of certain securities. At that
time those factors were so exclusively occu
pying the attention of operators that It ap
peared probable that they might produce ut
least a temporary decline ; and , with that
view , I suggested selling special stocks
rather than buying. At the same tlino , huw-
t over , tbo market had another slda and an
other sot of influences , which though , for
{ the time being , dormant and inllunntlai. were
yet plainly destined to have u favorable In-
mioiico upon prices sooner or later ; and us
tliu iimrknt of the past two weeks seems to
bavo LOOU In some measure moved by those
considerations It may bo proper to tuuUo duo
reference to them ,
The wheat crop now promises to surpass
both In quantity nnd quality the earlier esti
mates , 5M ) to tXXJ million bushels bvlng now
regarded us not an Impossible yiola. The
special importance attached to this fact U
that wheat being so largely un export crop
this unprecedented supply of It gives us the
greater power for controlling the return of
tbo abnormal exports of gold ( for the last
eight months. If Europe should need doubla
tlio avurago supply of American wheat of tha
last ton years , wo shall bo In a position to
tend It. This fact cannot reasonably oo de
nied n favorublo allowance iu estimating the
probabilities of a reflux of rold to the Uuitou
States.

land. Hut , I consent , hecaiiso I am aware of
the strung elfotts thai have been made In
Amot'icii and on tlio Cnnllnonl lo create u

Mr. Ltddcrdnlo nlso stated , In respect to
the Hnritii ; Ui-othnr.i , thnt "thoir nffnlrs were
found to bo in nn entirely solvent condition , u
moro matter of Hotting tlmo , " nnd 'that be
yond n special liability of .HT.OJO.OOO to the
Bank of liiiKlnntl , "which In no wny concerns
the public , " the aunto now owes loss than
half u million pounds. The governor further
snla tin t "tho only ovcrshiulowintr dnnpcr in
the recent crisis was the nbillt.y of Hussin to
drnw from foreign banks largo amounts of
gold"and that issue having been met , "Russia
could not bring nbout n crisis oven If she
wished. " Tin-so explanations and opinions
from the highest possible autnority carry a
large weight of Invaluable assurance. They
throw upon the distrust felt ( iuito extensively
on this sldo the Atlantic ] ust the kind of light
the situation calls for the opinions of the ono
man who knows with moro broiulth and detail
than any other authority the true facts of
the European position. In the light of tlieso
nssurnncoA , wo nro Justitluu in dismissing
front current estimates of tno future nt least
nil elements of special danger , nil apprehen
sions of impending catastropo. Wo must ox-
pcct the dullness , caution , contraction of
credit , commercial reaction , nnd dot-lino in
trade values throughout Europe that nlwnys
und necessarily follow n great crisis , nnd to
say thnt Is to say that wo may not calculate
upon the usual forelcn demand for our se
curities , not upon any speculative activity In
thorn either at London or on the continental
bourses. The tone of Governor Lidderdnlo's
remarks docs not lend any even Inferential
support to the Idea cherished here that any
special effort Is likely to bo made to prevent
the rcllux of gold to tlila country , should the
natural course of our exchanges call for It.
Hather , with the absence of nny special im
pending dangers , the elimination of
Uussln from the situntlou , and the low
rates of money and nbscnco of speculation , it
would seem to bo to the Interest of European
bankers to otter no obstacle to the return of
gold to the point wnero it Is llkelv to ba
most naturally nnd urgently ncodoJ , nnd
where Its use will bo most bonoilcial to the
world nt largo.
It seems proper to add a word ns to the
prospects of our homo money. Wo hnvo now
n week or two later than usual reached
the turning point in the domestic exchanges ,
and mot.oy has began to How westward.
Although the amount of the reserves of the
Now York banks U double what It was nt tno
same titno last year , yet that may not pre
vent our local cash resources being drawn
down to n point threatening stringency.
That Is n matter , howo.er , thnt can only bo
determined by experience. Itisnotto boovor-
lookcd In this connection that the nctlvo cir
culation of the country has increased some
seventy millions during the last twelve
months , which , in the absence of nny increase
In the trade of the country , should pass for
an element of sumo importuned in estimating
the prospects of the money market.
Having stated some of the factors which
lack of space excluded from our last week's
review , wo would nevertheless repeat the
opinion then expressed thnt the "Dourlsh"
element does not seem to have fully cx-
Jmustcd Itself ; heneo the point does not np-
'poar to hnvo yet been renctiod nl which It Is
safe to load up heavily with stocks , except
for brief turns , niul the buying should bo
conllned to periods when slumps are pro
duced by the active traders. .

Fairbury Enterprise : W. W. Watson
drove over Gilead precinct , In Thnyer county
just west of Jefferson , In company with C. L.
Clark , of Omaha , n largo land owner. They
found that wheat there averaged moro than
twenty busliols per acre. Oats did not yield
so well ns expected , owing to the great
growth of straw. The only growlers bo
beard were those who were unhappy ba-
cause their neighbors got a few more bush
els of wheat per acre. The farmers seem
contented. Corn was found to bo in line
condition , free from weeds and growing rap
idly. Land there is steadily Increasing In
value , as It Is In this country.
Special from Crawford : Mr. J. W. Heed
threshed the lirst wheat Thursday. The
yield was twenty-live bushels to the aero and
the piece Is considered oelow the average
throughout the county. This season has
demonstrated the fact that IJ.uves county is
unsurpassed as n producer of wheat and
other small grain.
Hastings Nebraska ! ! : Corn Is king in Ne
braska and Nebraska is the banner corn stnto
in the union. Yesterday Dr. L3'mun drove
In from his farm with several stalks of corn
cut ut random from a Held. The stalks were
taken Into the oftlco of the Queen City land
company and measured and the larcest ono
was just thirteen feet and tbo
others varied from twelve to twelve
and a half feet. On the thirteen
foot stnlk there were oars ot corn growing
nine feat from the ground. If this can bo
boat wo would like to see it. Mr. Lynmu
says ho has plenty of this kind of corn on bis
farm and so have other farmers of tlio
county. The doctor was asked how ho ex
pected to ( tick the corn and ho replied : "I
am going to have all tha tall inoii I can 11 ml
and have them each bring along n stop-
ladder. " Upon being interrogated as to the
prospects of a corn crop Mr. Lyman said that
ft was his opinion that the crop of Nebraska
would bo the largest in the history of the
stnto , both In yield and the number of acres.
Adams County Tribune : A Tribune cor
respondent called at W. B. Brown's farm In
Highland township recently and was moro
than over convinced that this Is pro-oml-
nontly n good fruit country , especially
for apples. When Mr. Brown came
hero thirteen years ago , with a
few hundred dollars earned In an
Illinois coal mine , ho Invested In an Improved
farm , nnd on ibis farm ho found .six trees of
transcondant crabs. These trees are
now loaded down with as tine fruit
tit ever grow. Some ono estimated
that there were twenty bushels to
each tree. Our correspondent saw six httla
trees of the duchess variety loaded with
largo , line red npiiles. Mr. Brown has a
large orchard and all the trees are prollllo
bearers this year with as excellent fruit as
can bo found anvwhoro. His samples would
have been eqiial If not superior to any on
exhibition at the stnto horticultural meeting
and perhaps larger than any there. If any
body thinks this will never bo a superior
fruit country lot him visit the groves ot O. B.
Slmfor. W. B. Brown , A. F. and C. U.
Powers and many others in Adams county.
The Tribune has samples of apples from Mr.
Brown's orchard and they are line.
Clmdron Citizen : ' -Speaking of tall corn , "
roiiufrked a Bordeaux man as ho borrowed n
chew of Climax from a friend , "I heard a
llltlu bit the tallest corn story yesterday. A
neighbor of mine always has about ns line a
Held of corn ns there Is in tlio county , I duro
say. Well , this year It was a llttlo L-ettor
than common , and the way It grow was aston
ishing to old settlors. My neighbor was
plowing the Held the second time when ono
day about lima to unhitch for supper hemet
mot with a trilling accident and had to
leave bis cultivator statin thera In the
middle of the Held over night. That corn
was growing faster than he luul any Idea of.
By the next morning It bad actually grown
so big that no team could have nulled
that cultivator out of there , ami
uty neighbor bad to go and got a
cross-cut taw and fell the wbolo row of
stalks ahead of his team In order to got out.
Ttiat'a a pretty big story and I thought so
when ho told It. Hat I gtioss It's all right ,

fairyland , leave nno amaxed as to what
Mr. Vuiulorbilt could do if in it ahow.y
mood.
The Now York Ilonild correspondent
writes as follows :
The stone bridge at the edge of the
hiwn and against which the angry
breakers dnsh with relentless fury , was
Illuminated with calcium lights , the
otrect resembling a stage scene in a
modern theatre. A hundred or moro
fairy lamps with delicately tinted shade's
wore placed on and about the rocks along
the shore and.on the grounds , and theno
tiny lamps were also placed around and
across the Htono bridge.
The grounds wore also brilliantly il
luminated with small oleetric lamps ,
Chinese lanterns , etc. The ell'ect was
very realistic and will never bo forgot
ten by the guosl ; ' . It was a weird and
picturesque scene and it attracted aa
much attention as did the pretty girls
in their now gowns mid diamonds.
A KOUTUNK FO.t Kl.CMVKKS.
The house decorations were sunorb ,
although not needed , in view ol tlio
elaborate fittings and furnishings of this
modern Newport cottage. .
Tlio lloral decorations wore principally
in red and white , moro especially in the
largo hall or ball room , with its main-
moth lire place , rich tapestries am' ar
tistic furnishings. Tlio vestibule and
outer hall loading to the ball room were
banked on either side with green and
variegated tropical plants.
Dancing took place of course in the
largo hall which was built with a view
to such entertainments. It is. situated
in the center of tlio house , and opens
from the main lloor to the roof , and is
supported by heavy carved pillars. At
the second lloor a gallery extends all
around the hall , and the front was cov-
Qi-cd with fragrant llowors , hanging on
the face of the woodwork , .lust to'.ow
the gallery were two broud , deep fringes
of fresh flowers.
UNDER A CANOl'Y OP FLOWERS.
To introduce electric lights with the
[ lowers and to reduce the extreme
height of the roof of the ball room , there
were suspended from the rafters several
mammoth Japanese umbrellas , on the
outer edges of which tiny electric lights
were hung irregularly , being partly
covered by light garlands of llowors and
green , through which the light throjv a
palo and subdued tint on the dancing
lloor , the whole being connected by gar
lands of roses with the fringe work of
[ lowers on the gallery fronts aim contin
ued around and through the archways
af the gallery in conventional garlands-
with heavy pendants.
From the heavy iron electric licrht
bracketsof which theroaroliftcen around
the hall , were hung largo lloral plaques ,
testooiied with lace llowersandoieh light
was covered with a tulip shaped shade.
In the largo stained glass window , which
extends to the full height of the hall ,
stood an immense uyathea dalbtvtta fern.
with long , gracefully spreading fronds ,
under which many of the guests were
seated. A pyramid of ferns was formed
at the base of the tree. The wide stair
case loading to the galleries was heavily
draped with passion vines in full bloom ,
and over two thousa id roses were used
as well.
A TANK OF WATKIl L1TJI2S.
In the large reception room which ad
joins the halls and forms a passageway
to the dining and billiard rooms , where
supper was served on small tables , as
well as on the piazzas by the Casino
caterer , was arranged a largo water lily
tank containing specimens of many of
the various colored lilies of the rivers
Nile and Tiber and an abundance of the
sacred lotus llowors.
The I'oaturo of the room was the dec
orations with wild grasses and bull-
rushes. The dining room , resembling
a banquet hall , is in oak. The tall inaii-
tlopioco and hugo lireplace were massed
up with tall loliago plants of-the liner
varieties , and the shelf was a study of
gloxinies alamandias and farlejcnsesa
fern leaves. Over the mantel the panels
wore filled in with American beauty
ro.ses and fancy forns. Centre pieces of
llowors and condolabras , with wreaths
of llowors , were placed on each of the
seventy-live small supper tables.
The verandas on the ocean side of the
house wore connected by two largo tents ,
ono of which was loft , open at ono end to
open up the grand marine view , with
its calcium lights and fairy lamps. The
feature of the decorations in the touts
and on the stone floored verandas covered
with rich Turkish rugs , were the tall
pyramids of hydrangos , llowors of
various colors and laurel nobils at I ho
stone pillars , while the roof was covered
with oak boughs. Lovers' corners ,
divans , rich furniture , tapestry , hang
ings , etc , in the improvised additions to
the Vandorbilt'cottage" added greatly
to the scono.
'
A ULAVCH OF KLECTUICITV.
Japanese lanterns were hung beneath
the red , white and blue canopies. The
cut glass glebe in the center of the
mammoth Japanese umbrella in the ball
room was illuminated by a50 candle
electric light , while the ono in the
nlcovo was lighted with a 100 candle
power light , while throughout the lirst
lloor 10,000 candle , power wius used.
Streamers of roses 'and ' smilax , each
thirty foot long anil.Hod . here and there
with satin ribbon , wi/ro attached to the
center umbrella and 'strung ' across the
hall over the heads of the merry dancers
and tied to the onaUwing balconies.
The favors were costly and unique and
'
consisted of sliver , jjold'and jeweled hat
pins in peculiar designs , also Parisian
gau/o fans , sashes of delicate shades of
pink , blue , lavondo.r and yellow ribbons
covered with urtlnuidl llowors , and mechanical -
chanical toys consisting of creeping ba
bies , performing 'oiars , monUoys and
jumping rablts all these being for the
ladles. The favors for the mon wore
silver scarf pins in , catchy designs of
hearts very appronrli.to indeed in view
of the presence of Mi-pinny marriageable
women wish bonoi , lovers' knots , etc ,
The mammoth orchostrian organ
which was lately imported from Swlt/
orland , and which is equal to a lirst
class brass band , being complete In
every part , played the "Torchlight
March" while the guests were at sup
per. This novelty was nut among the
most pleasing features of the ball.

"They may shut down the public
gambling houses , but they can't stop
gambling , jmt the hamo , said a well
known man about town to a Chicago
Times reporter.
"Tho gambling instinct is born in
man , " ho continued , "and unless homo
zealous and Inventive otllclal can devise
a moans for plucking Fortune's forelock
out by the roots , why , mon will continue
to gamble just in the old , bweot way as
long as the world gees round. Now , I
wua iu a Uttlo tramo the other evening
which possessed moro olonumts of inter
est than any ono 1'vo sat In in voars. II
began about 10 In the availing In the
private apartments of the junior mem
ber of a big commlesion firm on the
board of trade. Uosldos the broker
there were In the game a prominent
physician , a big criminal lawyer , a rail
road man and mvsolf.
"It was tlio old story a $2o limit with
JoO limit on jack-pots to start with , and
later on , about It in the morning , the
limit olT , a wide opoti gntno for table
stakes or collateral. Well , It was an
eventful contest all through. The cards
were running lively , and the physician
w.\s about 61,000 ahead. The broker
had been losing , so had the railroad
man. The lawyer was a llttlo to tl.o
good and I was about whole when It be
came daylight , 'Lot's play just four
more jack-pots and quit , ' someone pro
posed , and wo all acceded. The first
throe loft the physician nearly SL',000
ahead , the broker oven , the railway
man broke , and the lawvor and myself a
Httlo In the hole. Than the cards were
dealt for the last.
" 'Cost a hundred to play , ' sententiously -
tiously remarked the broker.
" 'Hundred bettor'said the physician.
"Out. '
" ' '
'Out.
" 'Two cards , ' said the broker.
" 'Give mo a card , ' chimed in the doc
tor.
" 'Dot you 810 , ' said the broker.
" 'Two hundred harder , ' from the
medic.
" 'Five hundred bettor. '
" 'Ono thousand bettor than you. '
' "One thousand harder. '
" 'I'll nut my check in if you've no ob
jections. '
' "None. It's good for any amount
with mo. '
" 'Two thousand better then. '
" 'Lot's see , ' said tlio broker. 'I
haven't that amount of cash in bank or
here. Won't you split it1
" 'No. I've a pretty good hand. Can't
you got it ? '
' 'I can after ! ) . '
" All right. Wo can fix that My
rules are never to tal < o I O U's , oven
from a friend ; but I'll tell you what.
Seal the two hands up in two envelopes
and the stakes in a third. We'll go
down and leave 'em with tlio clerk to bo
put in the safe and only opened in the
presence of three of this party. Then
you raise the stutT and we'll all moot at
breakfast at 12 sharp In the cafe , and
the ownership of the pot can then bo de
cided. '
"Agreed , that's fair enough.1
"Well , " continued tlio gentlemen.
"It was done. At noon wo all met at
breakfast except the railroad man , who
had gone out of town. The lawyer pro
cured the stakes and the envelopes , the
broker forked ever four crisp $000 bills
to make ur > his bet , and I opened the
sealed envelopes. The doctor's was
lirst. It contained four Icings and a
queen. The broker nearly jumped out
of seat when ho saw it , and the doctor
grow palo at his hilarity. The broker's
envelope was opened and contained four
ncos and a ten. Ho paid for the breakFast -
Fast , and the bill wasn't a light ono ,
either. "
Ti c Atlnntic'H Appetite
Fire and water are natural elements ,
says the Boston Globe , and both are the
common enemies of property. It would
jo hard to say which lias made the
greatest ravages during the history of
Lho race , but though the latter works
slowly and silently and with little dis
play , it is probably the chief of destroy
ers.
Taking the Atlantic coast as a whole
the oco.in outs into the land at the rate
of ono rod a year.
From Barnegat inlet to Long Branch
Ho foot of the coast has retreated into
the ocean during the past thirty-two
years. Along the gulf coast , from Mo
bile bay to the mouth of the Mississippi ,
millions of dollar's worth of villas ,
orange groves and rultivatcd fields have
boon swallowed up within the past few
years. ;
Scones of once nourishing towns now
lie buried in the bed of the Mississippi.
Duo need go no farther than Capo Cod
to have pointed out to him numerous
load harbors that have been olo.sed to
navigation by the ravages of the sea
within the memory of old settlers now
living.
While the busy world hustles on the
Atlantic and gulf coasts are gradually
sinking beneath the ocean. The olllclal
geologist of Now Jersey says that this
n'occs : ! is going on at the rate of two
cot per century , which implies the ob-
iteration of a third of a milo of lowland.
The bottom of the ocean from fifty to
) iio hundred and fifty miles seaward was
once a part of the continent.
As time 5003 on it will require horcu-
oan labors to bavo the great harbors
ilong the coast from being closed to
mvigation. So vastly more powerful
ire the mighty throes of the Atlantic
-ban the puny dredging appliances of
nan , that sometime in the far-off future
[ Joston and Now York are sure to become
load seaports.
But it is sulliciont for the present to
loto that inland transportation will , in
the natural course of events , supersede
coastwise commerce. A single century
ins crippled the Mississippi ever 50 per
cent as a navigable stream , and
only vast expense can Have it
mother century. Scores of the binall
liarbors along , the coast have boon
wiped out within the memory of mon
who sit upon their deserted shores. It
will require great efforts to keep tlio
larger ones navigable.
It is thus that silent but persistent
Forces are slowly changing the whole
race of human alTalrs. Boston's $8,000-
100 fee harbor defence may chock the
invader on top of the water. The silent
one below It that is silently crawling
ipon us , century by century , will prove
superior to all the expedients of human
genius.
