Mrs. Smith eald that nothing new had de veloped In the club situation since her ad- dm of a year ago , exrept that the club had put Into actual practice the things most to be desired and had grown proportionately In grace and wUdora. For the coming year Iho speaker suggested the motto , "Privi leges Imply Obllcatlfus , " and after dwelling for a moment upon the educational awaken- , nq of our time , ns expressed In kinder- gHrlrn , le.-hnlral training anj the higher education of women , and Its effect upon all vomen , both In colleRP and out. she con- Inup'l cubslantlnlly as follows : "Reciprocity Is the keynote of club lltfl. Time was when It wan considered an ad mirable thins to fill one's mind with stores of wisdom to bo kept for one' own use. Tlmo Is when ono Is scorned If he doee not et his light shine. Time was when It was considered desirable to cultivate all manner of gifts nnd graces for the > private adorn ment of the mind. Tlmo Is If one hoardn ho blessings of culture without Imparting them to those less fortunate he Is considered selfish. Opportunities are commands. SerT- co to others Is the solution of the problem of life , but whllo wo live for others wo ilso llvo with others. In the club wo pool individual Ideas and out of the common fund comes , llko a composite picture , the well-bounded whole. " The address clcecd with the plea that women'fl clubs bo taken from the list of fads nnd placed on the list of permanent organizations.

"It would not eurprlse mo much If the Philippine Islands prove to be one of the richest gold fields in the world , " remarked N. W. Peters , who was with General Stanton - ton and who has Just returned from Manila "In my Judgment the islands will prove a very rich country when once Americanized At present the natives raise only rice , pine apples , bananas and a few other fruits. The soil Is very fertile and when properly cul tivated will produce all kinds of tropical fruits. Of course now I am speaking of the lowlands along the coast. On the table lands , where it Is cooler , I am of the opin ion that grains nnd all products of the tem perate zone may bo raised. "Everything indicates that the mountains are rich In gold , and It will not surprise mete to hear of some very rich strikes. Prior to the beginning of the present war the boys used to go up Into the mountains , and along any of the streams they could wash out gold In paying quantities. If gold is otruck you will see a rush of miners Into the country and then the troubles with the natives will- adjust themselves , for with forty or fifty thousand miners they will see that the na- Uves are taken care of.

FINANCES ARE IN A BAD WAY War in the Transvaal Likely to Proluso a Crash in England , BANKS CANNOT SPARE GOLD FOR EXPORT Sleek on Hand Ilnrely Sulllelent Xow to 1'rovlile for Uedeiiiiillon of \ofcN Ul.ieoiinf Itnten tie Up. NEW YORK. Oct. 2. The Times' London financial cable pays : Last week was one of ; rcat tension and excitement destructive to "business. " Even the money market was In A condition of suspended animation and the Bank of England all week did the cream of the discount burners. Until Friday the open market worked nt 3 % per cent , taking ninety day bills at that rate , but quoting 34 and 4 per cent to foreign correspondents 'or bills coming forward. An advance In the bank rate to 4 per cent was fully expected on Thursday. When no change was made the position did not Improve , but grow worse , for the bank statement was weak. The market had drawn 1.600.000 ( rom the bank by bills of discount aim the whole of this , fc-avo 03,000 , had disappeared either Into active circulation or , worse still , hi gold exported. And iillll gold flows away. More than 2,000,000 has already gone to the Cape , and the real surplus In metal over liability notes In circulation Is now under (5,000,000. ( The bank Itself refused to work below 3741 to 4 per cent on Friday and Saturday did nothing under 4 per cent , charging i" > per cent for loans. The open market , accord ingly , quoted 4 to 4'4 per cent for ninety day remitted bills and did little 'business. ' The hope Is expressed that gold may come back from the province * this week , hut the probability of that Is small. The tension , however , Is sure to be- less In the loan mar ket , because the banks are now calling In loans to make a show of strength In their monthly balance sheets. Here Is a crude statement ot our position. Under our antiquated banking system pro vincial English , Scotch and Irish banks all Issue notes on their credit alone. They are not bound even to hold government stock against a fixed legal Issue. The aggregate of the o uncovered Issues is rtbont 10,000- 000 , and the banks oujoylng them nro obliged only to keep gold against notes Icsticd In ex cess of their statutory limit. The English 'banks ' never reach that limit , the Scotch and Irish are always above It. The Bank of England stock of gold , therefore , Is really about 2,000,000 short now cf the amount required to cover the fiduciary note circulation of the three kingdoms. There Is no real danger in the position as long as the public Is not frightened by rapid exports of gold , but , given active fears , notes could not be met and suspension of specie payment looms in view , Cniinot Spare Gold. It Is necessary to Insist on this point In order to warn your bankers that we cannot now spare gold from the Bank of England. Should a South African war come , as la al most certain , nil we could spare or scrape would bo required for it , and should other foreign demands bo sprung upon us , a credl' smash is almost a matter of days. Dread of this smash alone cannot prevent war. All our resources are fully engaged In Industry and commerce , in sustaining credit In India and the colonies , In financing Japan and Egypt and In Innumerable other direc tions. Abstract capital for war purposes and the entire machine Is liable to become deranged , with disastrous results. Al ready the Transvaal government has Inti mated that it will keep the gold produces from the mines until the war Is over , ah except the amounts minted for expenses an ominous notice. Our thoughtful hankers , not In the majority , I regret to say , have been alarmed at the prospect for eomo time , and ono or two have begun to collect pri vate stocks of sovereigns. These arc too slender as yet to do much to stave off con fusion should export proceed and now supplies of metal cease. Your bankers , therefore , would do well to restrict their de mands to consignments procurable from bullion dealers. The Stock exchange remains deserted by all except those who must buy or cell , such as insurance companies , trustees , etc. , but the position seems strong and largo failures nro said to be Improbable. Specu lative accounts , however , are not now all carried In the market as formerly , but largely by the banks , so the real position In hard to guess. The only point certain is that business Is stopped. Even Paris is becoming - ; coming afraid. j General trade has not yet begun to suffei j appreciably from the uneasiness. Stlmuj j lated by enormous government orders , the I Iron and steel trades are busier than ever , I and orders for ships for the mercantile ma- i , ' rlne are also excellent. In other dlrec- j tlons wo have lieen less favored. The trade returns for September , to bo published next . Saturday , will probably exhibit a serious | i further ( shrinkage In South African business j with most of the continent ness , and trade parts I nent ns well aswith Australia , remains pro gressive. French finances are again exciting com ment. The budget for 1900 exceeds 140- 000,000. The expenditure the year before the war with Germany was only 75,000- 000 , and the population Is only a little larger now than then. In France , as In Spain , the military caste dominates and Imposes Its demands on the nation , come to all other Interests what may. CHARGES LOW.
