Price: ONE PIASTRE TARIPK
THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 21, 1907.
Mr. Henniker Heaton pursue his crusade against the cable companies in the "Arena." He sets forth in detail their extortionate charges, and denonnees in vigorous language the monopoly of the cable kings. Individually. he says, some of them are, no doubt, kindhearted, charitable men. Collectively, however, "they are impervious to sentiment-philanthropic, patriotie or moral considerations---
leech, a vampire, or a Bengal tiger" :-"The present state of affairs not only constitutes & barrier to commerce, but is also a rank injustice to the poor, the fragal masses of our countrymen and country women, who stook our distant polonies with their children to the number of a quarter of a million per annum. At one time the cable rate of one word ranged from one Hays' wages of a farm labourer. To-day matters are not much improved. If, for instance, labourer in England wished to learn whether this son in South Africa had perished in some terrible mining disaster, he and his family pould only purchase the sad information by sacrificing his wages for a fortnight or three
weeks."
So far as Amerios cables are concerned pommerce is practically throttled. Mr. Heaton proposes that the British and American Gowernments should buy up the cable companies at a fair valuation :-"It is feasible and poswible. In the interests of the millions in both mountries it is an absoluto necessity. The Darrying capacity of the cables to America amounts to three hundred million words, and only twenty-five million words are sent at Is.
word. If the cables were owned as common State property the full carrying capacity could
be used, and it would be possible to send messages and establish a tariff of 1d. per word. The result would be enormous development of Erade and an immense increase in the happiness of the masses on both sides of the Atlantic."
Pending this purchase of the cable companies t would, says Mr. Heaton, be perfectly easy to stablish an alternative land service to com pete with them. He would first of all establish
uniform rate of a penny & word on all the and lines of Europe. This, he contends would De perfectly possible, and, indeed, profitable to all concerned. Short cables in the Persian Gulf, between Singapore, Java and Australia, would monnect the land lines of Barope, Asis and Australia. It would then be possible to levy
he following initial rates :-"To any part of Barope 1d. per word. To Egypt and Canada
d. per word. To any part of Asia 6d. per word. To Australia 1s. per word."
If France and England would arrange a opumention to exchange telegrams at one penny a world its benefits to commerce would be so great as to induce other Baropean Governments o join the "Telegraph Union." The cable cings, Mr. Heaton points out, are at the preent moment imposing a crashing tax of two millions sterling per annum on British foreign rade. If only the Powers were to buy up the hares of the existing companies the cable tariff night easily become one of the greatest blesrings to mankind everywhere, instead of being un intolerable burden.
There have been no cases of cattle plague recorded in Egypt during the past week.
The Legislative Council will meet on the first of December, when the chief subject for discussion will be the 1908 budget.
All the canals in the Fayoum Province will be closed from the 20th proxo for a period of 30 days to enable remodelling and clearance works to be carried out.
Owing to the annual clearances navigation will be stopped in the whole length of Ismailia Canal, from the 10th proxo, to January 15th, 1908, for all boats of more than one metre draught.
In the report of the two cases, which we heard before the British Consular, Court yesterday against the Bourse and Banking Company of Egypt Limited, we omitted to mention that in the second case the plaintiff was represented by Mr. Gooding, barrister-at-law.
A telegram has been received from Nuhud announcing the arrival there of the messengers of Sultan Ali Dinar of Darfur, who are on their way to Khartoum with the Sultan's annual tribute and with messages to the Governor General and the Inspector General from the Sultan
The Viennese orchestra engaged for the season by the management of the Grand Continental Hotel at Cairo will give its first concert at 10 o'clock to-night in the grill room. This orchestra will play every night and until 2 a.m., and should by its excellence attract many to this popular hotel.
605 births are recorded in Cairo for the week ending Nov. 18th and 369 for the same period, of which latter number 207 were children under the age of five years. One European and eleven natives succumbed to diphteria, four natives to typhus, three typhoid, one to measles, and two to puerperal fever. The totals of births and deaths above include eleven European births and twenty five deaths, twelve children being included in the latter number.
A miserably poor house attended the Zizinia Theatre last night to see Madame Munte in "Adrienne Lecouvreur." She is undoubtedly a first-class actress and her moving impersonation, of the pathetic heorine of Scribe's masterpiece was a fine example of acting. In the second act she was specially good, but the death scene suggested somewhat unfavourable comparisons with other great actresses, who have assumed this role. She was not very well supported by the rest of the company.
The Committee of the Islamic Congress met on Tuesday last at the house of Said Tewfik El-Bakry when Sheikh Selim El,Bishri, the late Chancellor of Al Azhar was elected as president and El-Sayed El-Bakry and Hussein Pasha Wassif as vice-presidents, Ahmed Bey Taymoor as treasurer Maitre Omar Bey Loutfi as secretary. A special board was composed of Sayed El Bakry, Sheikh Ali Yousef, Has-an Rifki Pasha Helbawi Bey, Refik Bey el Azm and Maitre Loutfi Bey to draw up the plan of the Congress.

Heavy rains fell in Cairo last night and continued until well after nine o'clock thi morning, with the result that on either side of the streets ran rivers of muddy water, while the pavements were of course for the most part impossible to walk on, pedestrians being forced to mix with the traffic of the streets in order to obtain a moderately secure footing. But it is an ill rain which falls for no good, and one enterprising cabby, realising this, drove his horses slap across the pavement at one point to where a tub stood invitingly full of water, it evidently having been left behind by the men who had recently been at work on an adjacent building.
THE SIRDAR'S APPEAL.
(Gazette's Special Service.)
London, Thursday.
Sir Reginald Wingate, the Sirdar, has had an earnestly worded appeal issued in the London Press calling on the members of the Anglican Church in this country to come forward with contributions in order to carry through the completion of the English Church at Khartoum.
The funeral of the late Captain Roberts took place with full military honours yesterday afternoon, all the regiments of the Army of Occupation as well as the Egyptian Army being represented. Three bands of the British regiments took part in this last melancholy rite and there was a large following of civilian as well as military mourners who had assembled to do the last possible honour to one of our most able officers.
The Earl of Cromer's work on Egypt, which will be ready for publication in the early spring, is the subject of interested conversation in the political clubs in London. It is expected to be the most important political treatise of next year, and will be published in two volumes. A prospectus outlining the various features will shortly be issued. The work will contain a most important statement on the present position of affairs in Egypt, and the future prospects of the country, and now that Lord Cromer is no longer restricted, by the ties of office, he may be expected to give his opinions on the subject with greater freedom than be has been able to do hitherto. From the literary standpoint the book will also be of value. Lord Cromer's annual reports were always entertaining reading, and were written with an ability not often seen in official documents.
The committee of the London stock Exchange have been asked to appoint a special settling day in Comptoir Financier and Commercial d'Egypte--Share Warrants to bearer for 50,000 shares of £4 each, fully paid, Nos. 1 to 50,000; 50,000 shares of £4 each, fully paid, Nos. 50,001 to 100,000 ; and 25,000 shares of £4 each, fully paid, Nos 100,001 to 125,000.
1. The prospectus of the New Land Company of Egypt and Sudan, Limited, will be found on page 5. We note from this prospectus that there are no preference or founders' shares and that the principal object of the company is the construction of houses and villas upon the instalment or amortisation system. Of the 67,000 shares offered to the public, 53,225 are already assured by the subscriptions of the promoters who receive the whole cost of their support in ordinary shares. The company which was formed several months ago is obliged to conform to this formality in order to be authorised to commence operations.
The president of the Hellenic Community of Ibrahimieh, Alexandria, Mr. Aristotelis B. Prazzicas, has issued invitations for the laying of the foundation stone of the Greek Orthodox Church to be erected at Ibrahimieh, the ceremony taking place at half past three this afternoon. This church is founded through the generosity of Mr. Xenophon Joannidis, vice-president of the community, whose gift was £2,100 for the construction of the church and Mr. Joannides has also undertaken to bear the full expense of the decorative part of the church, which is, we understand, to be done in a most artistic design. Last year Mr. Prazzicas founded a boys and girls school at Ibrahimieh and immediately after the ceremony of laying the foundation stone of the church the opening ceremony of the Prazzikio sehool will be conducted by his Beatitude Mgr. Photios, Greek Orthodox Patriarch, who will be attended by the clergy of the Greek church.
The Mose liner "Menepthah" sailed from Liverpool on Tuesday last, 19th inst., and is due here about the 3rd prox. with passengers mails and general cargo.
The S.S. "Syrian Prince" with passengers and general cargo, left Antwerp on the 20th inst for Alexandria via Gibraltar and Malta, and is due to arrive at Alexandria on or about the 7th December.
According to the general testimony of the commercial community of the Sudan the railways are the most efficient administration. Even with the great difficulties they have to encounter they pay four per cent on the capital outlay. The freights are moderate considering the cost of running railways in such a country, passengers are increasing and the number of natives who make use of this means of locomotion grows larger ever year. They travel fourth class at the low rate of one millieme per mile. The following details of the latest progress made and of future developments should be of interest :--
NILE-RED SEA LINE.
During this year the Nile Red Sea branch of the Sudan Government Railways had a umpletely new outfit of rolling stock. This includes three trains with dining and sleeping cars and first, second, and third class carriages hich have been supplied by the Brush Company. A travelling post office is attached to each mail train. The journey to Khartoum takes 22 hours. The most difficult problem to contend with on this line is the washouts. One section 130 kilometres in length, has been protected. This is between Khor Mog to Summit, which is at the top of the pass over the mountains running along the coast. Owing these defensive works washouts have been satisfactorily withstood.
The railway workshops and offices, together th the condensers, will be moved from Suakim to Port Sudan before next summer Two stations will remain at Suakim. A new town station will be built and the goods station will be left for native trade.
KHARTOUM.
The first consignment of material for the new railway bridge over the Blue Nile at Khartoum arrived recently at Port Sudan by thee S.S. "Ras Issa." It is to be built by the Cleveland Bridge and Engineering Company, who constructed the Zambezi Bridge and other important works. The bridge, which is also to have a road and footway across it, is to be built in two years.
The terminus at Khartoum is to be removed to a site at the back of the Palace. Helfieh will remain as a goods station.
EXTENSION CONTEMPLATED.
The extensions of the Sudan railway system are.
(1) By way of the Blue Nile and Wad Medani to Singa.
(2) The Kassala branch of the Nile-Red Sea line.
(3) The El Obeid branch.
All these projects are still in a very indefinite stage and it is as yet undecided when they will be taken in hand. They have been generally surveyed, but detailed surveys and estimates have not been made out for all of them. The line to Singa would tap the Ghezireh. This line would form the base of a triangle crossing the White Nile at Goz Abou Goma and thence to El Obeid. The project of a line from Khartoum to El Obeid direct will probably be abanoned in favour of this route, as between Khartoum and El Obeid only desert would be crossed, whereas the route via Singa would traverse fertile country.
THE ATBARA HEADQUARTERS.
The development at the headquarters of the Sudan Government Railways at Atbara has during the present year been enormous. There now from five to six hundred Europeans there, all of whom are more or less connected with the railways. Two years ago there was not even a scratch on the ground. Now it is the Crewe of the Sudan. The station has an excellent bathing establishment for passengers and a bar is to be erected shortly and the services of a boy for the sale of newspapers are to be secured. The construction of a new hospital for Europeans and natives has recently begun. Another feature of this centre of the Sudanese railway system is the signal box, which is fitted with forty two levers and would not disgrace any railway station in England. All the railway stores are here and there are iron and brass foundries, generating stations, ice machines, etc. The iron foundry is a very complete installation and can turn out ten ton castings.
KHARTOUM NORTH.
The railway line will be extended in Khartoum North as far as the river front near the Bank Shoonahs, which will enable the merchants concerned to unload their goods from the boats directly to the railway cars.
DAMAGE TO GOODS.
In case of any damage being done to goods shipped by railway, whether from breakage or leakage of oils or other liquids shipped in the same car, the Director of Railways will be glad to receive representations on the subject from the parties concerned ; and if the railway is responsible for the damage, proper compensation will be given.
PASSENGER RATE
It is impossible at present to consider the reduction of passenger rates on the Railways. Any comparison of the rates charged by the Sudan Railways with those of Egypt or Europe would be unfair, considering the greater expenses incurred in the Sudan, for construction, ,materials, workmen, employees, ete., and the small patronage that it has, for which there is no immediate prospect of increase. The suggestions made that the line should be made more solid and permanent so that it can stand against the floods, coincide with the aims of the Railway authorities, the only thing acking is sufficient funds.
The complaints made about delays and shortages of goods at the Custom House Port Sudan. are, says the "Sudan Times," attributable mostly to the incompetency of agents at Port Sudan. If the merchants took pains to choose as their representatives there persons who have experience in Custom House transactions, many of their complaints would be removed. It is not denied, however, that the difficulty of landing goods from steamers into lighters has much to do with the present disorder, but this will be removed as soon as the new quays are completed, when freight will be unloaded directly from steamers to cars.
DR. PIRRIE.
Dr. A. Martier Pirrie, whose death we announced a few days ago, after gaining high honours, including the Carnegie Research Fellowship, in anthropology, was appointed anthropologist to the "Wellcome Research Laboratories at the Gordon Memorial College, Khartoum, and went out to the Sudan in the autumn of 1906. Under the direction of Dr. Andrew Balfour, the Director of the laboratories Dr. Pirrie made his first expedition up the Nile to the southern limits of the Sudan, and penetrated to remote parts of the Bahr-el-Ghazal. A second expedition took him to the borders of Abyssinia. On both occasions he was engaged on anthropological and physiological researches into tropical diseases. He contracted fever, and was compelled to return to England. He presented a paper on his expeditions at the last meeting of the British Association, but was prevented from being present on account of his illness. Dr. Pirrie brought back a valuable collection of objects of anthropological and other scientific interest, and at intervals during his illness he was engaged on his report to the Carnegie Institute and the Wellcome Research Laboratories, Khartoum, for which institutions he acted jointly in the work he carried out in the Sudan.

(De notre reporter spécial)
La Commission Municipale s'est réunie hier à 4h.p.m., souns la présidence de Schiess Pacha. Etaient présents MM. Kingham, Foster, Stross, Fenderl, Padoa Bey, Rieti, A. de Menasce, Barbaza, Tambacopoulo, G. Zervudachi, A. Ralli, Yehia Pacha, Comanos (substitut), Mansour Bey, Ayoub Bey, membres; W.P. Chataway (administrateur), I. Bey Sidky et Wilner (secrétaires).
VALIDITE DE LA DERNIERE SÉANCE.
Yehia Pacha a profité de la commonication des procès-verbaux de la Commission du 3 avril au 14 aoút pour contester la validité de la dernière séance municipale. A cette date il y avait 15 membres absents, c'est-à-dire la majorité; 7 ont assisté à la séance et 6 se sont fait excuser. Il semble à Yehia Pacha que la clause d'après laquelle une seconde séance est valable, quel que soit le nombre des membres présents, implique évidemment que le quorum doit être possible à la première convocation, sinon celle-ci serait illégale. Or, comme on vient de le voir, le quorum était impossible an 14 aout dès la première séance. Dans ces conditions, le leader indigène estime qu'il faut renvoyer la question an Comité du Contentieux pour rapport. Padoa Bey, bien qu'il ne puisse formuler ex abrupto une opinion définitive, croit que le noeud de la question repose sur l'urgence des décisions à prendre : si les delibérations ne présentent aucun caractère d'urgence, il faudrait attendre un quorum; mais, dans le cas contraire, quoi qu'on puisse alléguer en droit, en fait il n'y a pas lieu de critiquer la convocation.
Dans quelques semaines le comité du Contentieux se prononcers sur ce point délicat.
AVANT ET APRES LA CRISE
La communication des procès-verbaux de la Délégation du 22 Aoút au 12 Novembre a ègalement donné lieu à une discussion fort intèressante. Il s'agit de savoir si la Municipalité doit s'en tenir vis-à-vis des propriétaires à emprendre et à exproprier aux pourparlers en cours avant la crise, au moment oh la hausse des terrains avait atteint son apogée. Une discussion s'engage à ce sujet entre MM. Stross et A. de Menasce: M. Stross soutient qu'en l'espèce, au Midan, les terrains du centre n'ont as baissé et qu'il faut conserver les bases des cords en suspens. M. de Menasce sans se rononcer ouvertement en sens contraire, de mande que la Commission fixe au Comité "évaluation dont il fait partie une ligne de ondaite pour l'avenir. Me Padoa Bey, se basant sur l'égalité qui doit exister entre deux contractants, la Municipalité et les propriétaires, suppose, et il n'a pas tort, que dans le casoú les propriétaires auront avantage à refuser l'accordils n'y manqueront pas, si la Municipalité n'a pas d'écrit formel à leur opposer; la Municipalité qui est l'autre partie contractante doit avoir de son côté les mêmes droits. Me Padoa Bey conelut donc que sans convention formelle ntre les deux parties, la Municipalité n'est nullement engagée Là-dessus on passe à ordre du jour.
Nous ne pouvons clore ce chapitre sans nous étonner de l'attitude de M. Stross, qui, d'un côté penche pour la confirmation de pourparlers désavantageux pour la Municipalité, et de l'autre a fait à ses collègues une longue tirade sur les crédits innombrables qu'on vote les yeux fermés.
COMMUNICATIONS DIVERSES
Lecture a été donnée d'une lettre du Ministére des Finances approuvant le renvoi de la question relative aux maisons à bon marché la rentrée, c'est-à-dire en novembre. 2 d'une lettre du Ministère des Travaux Publics portant á 1650 livres la contribution gouvernementale à la confection de la route en corniche conduissant au palais de Ras el Tin, à la condition expresse de commencer immédiatement les trayaux, sinon, comme la garnison anglaise aura besoin à & bref délai de cette route, le gouvernement entreprendra lui-même les travaux. 3 d'une lettre du 24 août approuvant les crédits votés à la séance municipale du 14 aoút. 4° d'une lettre du Ministère des Travaux Publics ausujet des nouveaux ponts du Canal Mahmoudieh. 5° d'une lettre du Ministère de l'Instruction Publique maintenant l'emplacement choisi pour les écoles primaires indigènes au Rond Point de la Rue Rosetta. 6° d'une lettre ministèrielle relative aux bains de mer privés, et 7 d'une lèttre approuvant l'arrêté municipal portant aggravation des pénalités au règlement sur les abattoirs.
M. Kingham ayant fait observer que la lecture de cette correspondance constituait pour les membres une perte de temps inutile, tout le monde s'est rallié à sa proposition d'envoyer une copie de ces communications à chaque membre en même temps que l'ordre du jour. On ne lira en séance que les lettres arrivèes la veille ou le jour même.

Bien que tous ces crédits aient été votés à l'unanimité et sans opposition sérieuse, quelques-uns cependant ont donné lieu à de précieuses observations que nous allons reprodaipe.
QUAIS ET BRISE-LAMES
M. Rieti tient d'un ingénieur dont la compétence ne peut être mise en doute que les réparations des quais déjà faites ou en voie d'exécution sont mal comprises et ne présentent aucune utilité. Il estime que le seul moyen de prévenir de nouveaux dégâts consiste dans la construction de brise-lames. Schiess Pacha répond que les d tériorations étaient prévues et que chaque ahuée de nouveaux replâtrages seront nécessaires. Il faudra peutêtre 1000 livres et plus pour l'année prochaine. En attendant le crédit de 760 livres est voté.
ENCORE 2000 L.E. POUR LE NOUZHA
Ceci attire une critique de M. Stross qui insiste pour avoir une liste de tous les er dits pour toute l'année. M. Stross se désiste d'ail. leurs dès qu'on lui fait savoir qu'il s'agit de l'acquisition d'une machine pour l'irrigation du jardin. Me Padoa termine agréablement la discussion en conseillant à ses collègues d'aller admirer le Nouzha. Comme dit la chanson,
"Il faut le voir
pour le croire. ...
EN FAVEUR DES PROPRIETAIRES
Tous les propriétaires de la Rue Rosette sont évidemment intéressés à ce qu'on remplace le pavage disgracieux de leur rue par l'asphaltage. Dans ce but les riverains de la Rue Chérif ont consenti à payer la moitié des frais et ceux de la Rue Rosette ne refuseraient certainement pas d'en faire autant. Mais nos conseillers qui ont une conception fort original des intérêts de la ville s'y sont opposés. C'est la ville qui supporters tous les frais et nos édiles ne se sont pas contentés de voter le crédit proposé, ils ont de plus décidé que pendant qu'on y était il fallait procéder avec magnificence et aller jusqu'au bout. Cette dernière proposition est de M. Fenderl. On prendra le solde, environ 8000 livres, sur la réserve !
CONTRE LES LOCATAIRES
La question relative aux maisons à bon marché a eu le sort qu'en attendaient les gena bien informés. Elle a été renvoyée aux calendes grecques. M. Fenderl regrette qu'en raison de la crise actuelle la société n'ait pu se former faute de capitaux ; il faut done prier le gouvernement de renvoyer l'affaire à une date ultérieure Eo prenant soin, ajoute M. Rieti, de répondre au Ministère de manière à ce qu'il ne retire pas ce qu'il a déjà noordé. Qu'on attende 3 og 6 mois pour laisser à la société le temps de trouver les 95000-£ dont elle a besoin, si elle les trouve jamais. On se rallie à la proposition de Pados Bey de faire une réponse vague... attendre......en vue d'élaboration définitive...
QUESTIONS DIVERSES

NOTES ET CRITIQUES
Le Caire, Mercredi 20 Novembre.
Le taux de l'escompte libre à Londres est renseigné invarié à 6 7/8 pour cent.
Au Stock Exchange, le Consolidé anglais a baissé hier de 1/4 á 82 1/8. L'Unifiée est restée inchangée à 99. La National Bank a avance de 1/8 à 20 et la Daira de 1/4 à 12 1/2. La Delta Light et l'Agricole ont été soutentes à 97/8 et 7 7/8 respectivement.
A Paris, le Crédit Foncier Egyptien a gagné 2 franes à 679. La Banque d'Athènes est rer
tée sans changement à 108 et les Lots Tures 1 à 163.
Ici, les dépêches nous ayant précisé l'amélioration des centres financiers
européens et
Les transactions sont bien restées un peu languissantes, mais il faut savoir se contenter de peu, tout en souhaitant que l'Europe nous cable encore quelques bonnes nouvelles, de nature à abaisser un peu le ton pessimiste de certains.
Dans le compartiment des Banques, la National Bank se relève à 20 et l'Agricole à 7 7/8. La Banque d'Abyssinie en renouveau inat tendu gagne 3/16 à 4 8/16. La Cassa di Sconto revient à 44, tandis que le Comptoir Financier poursuit son amélioration à 2 7/16-1/2.
La Delta Light mollit à 9 5/8-11/16. Les Jouissances Eaux du Caire accentuent leur dépréciation à 157. Le Crédit Foncier Egyptien, sous l'influence de Paris, remonte à 678; son obligation ancienne recule à 286-287. La Daira Sanieh est en meilleure tendance à 12 1/2, ainsi qùe l'Allotment à 1 15/16-2 L'AmericanNile s'affaisse à 2 2 1 16. Les Omnibus-Automobiles se consolident à 2 1/4 et la Brasserie d'Alexandrie rétrograde à 130.
Le groupe des Hotels est sans affaires, sauf les Baehler en reprise à 4 13/16.
Parmi les petites valeurs, beaucoup de fermeté. La New Egyptian se ressaisit & 9/3-9/6 de même que l'Ordinary Khedivial Mail à 20/6. Les fondateurs Estates s'alourdissent encore à 2 3/4, les Markets a 25/- et la Salt and Soda à 14/9.
La crise américaine et l'Europe.
On évalue à 750 millions de francs (120 mil lions de dollars) les quantités de monnaie de toute sorte, qui ont disparu pour être thésaurisées. Lear retour dans la circulation détendrait la situation. Si une panique prive les banques de ressources liquides, sous forme d'instruments de payements, autres que les chèques, on voit toutes les difficultés à surmoriter. Il faut rétablir la confiance, mais comment ! Les exportations d'or d'Europe ont été considérables ; elles ont provoqué un relèvement universel de l'escompte à des taux qui imposent des sacrifices extraordinairement lourds au commerce et à l'industrie, sauf en - France ou l'on a pu rester à 4%.
L'industrie américaine n'est pas seulement embarrassée pour trouver de la monnaie les jours de payements des salaires ; elle a de la peine à renouveler ses effets à l'échéance ; de toute part, on réduit les crédits. Les établissements financièrement faibles sont obligés de demander le concours de syndics, malgré leur solvabilité. Le chômage est da à des causes financières, alors même que l'on a des commandes.
Tout dépend, pour l'Europe, de la tournure que prendront les affaires aux Etats-Unis, o l'on examine toujours les mesures propres à dénouer la crise, y compris une émission de billets ayant cours forcé.
Les taux surélevés d'escompte constituent une charge très lourde en Europe ; ils amènent une restriction des crédits et, par suite, un ra lentissement de l'activité économique tout en tière ; dans ces conditions, il est à souhaiter que l'on conserve tout son sang-froid et que l'on s'abstienne, en Allemagne et en Angleterre, de restrictions de crédit précipitées qui ne peuvent que rendre les difficultés plus aignes.

ANÆMIC WOMAN'S EXPERIENCE OF DR. WILLIAMS PINK PILLS.
At very little expense Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People has greatly improved the health of Marie Penin, whose portrait appears herewith. Marie Penin is a domestic. As she states in the letter now under notice, she was so weakened by anaemia that her work became very tedious, and sometimes impossible.
"Although at my mistress's house," she writes, "the work was not above the ordinary capacity of a woman, I was obliged to take frequent intervals of rest. I had continual headaches, and when I bent down or made any other effort, the pains became intolerable. It was in vain that I attempted to do my work. I was always cold, my hands feet being like ice ; and it seemed to me that there was no blood in my viens. I could not sleep well at night, and in the morning rose as tired as I had been on the previous evening. I had a very poor complexion, while I also lacked an appetite. I watched with chagrin the arrival of the time when I should be compelled to give up my employment, forall the treatments I had resorted to were inefficacious Someone who had been anaemie and had found a remedy in Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People then advised me to take them, and, convinced that they could only do me good, she brought me a box. I at once applied myself to the treatment, and at the end of the week I felt so much better that I could foresee an early cure. I felt much stronger, and all my ailments became less acute. I am now quite well, and have recovered my former good health, and I work merrily and without fatigue."
All workers who find their tasks above their strength should bear in mind that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are source of energy, a regeneration of the blood and a nerve tonie of the very first order, Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People give blood and enrich it with every dose, and in big cities the blood of the worker is apt to become impoverished.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, thanks to the powerful action on the blood and the nervous system, are always taken with success in cases of anaemia, chlorosis, neurasthenia, general weakness, stomach troubles, sick headaches, neauralgia, sciatica, and rheumatism.
Sold by all chemists and druggists at P.T. 18 the box and P.T. 70 for six boxes."

The Money Markot.
Thanks to the assistance rendered by the Bank of France, the Bank of England statewent yesterday showed a comparatively strong
osition, the reserve being higher by about three and-ahalf millions on the week at 21,118,000. Unfortunately, however, there is ttle prospect of retaining anything like that gare. As a matter of fact, about £700,000 was rithdrawn for America yesterday, and it is enerally believed that nearly two millions will be taken out for shipment to the same uarter to-morrow. The outlook is not very mcouraging. It was thought that a seven per ent. Bank rate would have checked gold withrawals, but so far this rate has proved inefmetive as regards Amerion, and although the lank directors decided to make no alteration
the minimum yesterday, it is feared they will be compelled to resort to higher figure vefore long. It is well known that America bas een negotiating with the Bank of France with he view of obtaining direct shipments of gold
New York, but so far the efforts in this irection do not appear to have met with much access. The Bank of France prefers to lend old against bills on London, for, however good he guarantees may have been the tact remains hat there is no State Bank in the United
tates, and it is consequently very different to ading money to institutions like the Bank
England. The fact that the Egyptian gold demands To later this year, owing to the cotton crop not being so forward as usual, is a fortuitous ircumstance, and it is confidently hoped that y the time further shipments to Alexandria
come necessary the situation in the States Fill be more normal, and that our Bank rate
ill have proved effective in attracting gold in arge quantities to our shores.
The one satisfactory feature in America is he return of confidence on the part of depo
tors evidenced by their willingness to free heir boarded funds. Wall Street during the ast few days has been bidding for money at empting rates, against which the hoarders ave not been proof, and as things become more settled, more and more gold should in this way return into circulation.
During the past week £2,934,000 in gold "as received at the Bank from abroad, and a mall sum was returned from the provinces, 80 hat the stock of coin and bullion have increas
by £8,171,000. Notes to the amount of 247,000 also returned from circulation. The parket's indebtedness to the Bank was reduced
£1,582,000. The proportion of reserve to abilities has risen 5.30 per cent. to 40.52 per ent. as compared with 40.26 last year. Last near the reserve stood at £20,023,000, as gainst £21,113,316 as reported yesterday.

The silver market bas developed further reakness, and business between this market nd the Indian Bazaars is practically at a tandstill. Yesterday the quotation for immediate delivery was down to 26, H per ounce The Stook Markota.
The money position naturally continues to ominate the Stock Exchange to the ex. lusion of all other influences, and markets ave fluctuated according to the tendeney of the various reports which have been circulated. n Tuesday it seemed as if a revival had set , active business being recorded in most actions. The advance was only short-lived, however, and profit-taking the following more mg sent prices down again.
The Bank rate decision was awaited with ome anxiety, and tended to restrict operations intil noon yesterday, but the announcement that no change had been made gave a more otive appearance all-round.
This morning the tone was depressed owing o the report that a large amount of gold will be withdrawn from the Bank tomorrow. It is obvious that until the money stringeney is relieved, investment business must continue at a low ebb, but it is nevertheless very satisfactory to notice that in spite of the depressing conditions prevailing, the markets retain a good undertone, and that there is a air amount of investment buying, particularly of the shares of the leading home railways.
The settlement is causing some little aneasiness. Two or three firms are said to be in difficulties, but it is hoped that in most cases they will come on all right. Console.
The market for gilt-edged securities is Hepressed owing to the dearness of money, and Donsols were last night quoted down to 82, to for cash and 82 A for the account. They have further declined to today, Foreign Bonde.

The market for home railway shares has reeived a good deal of attention. Now
that the fears of a strike have been removed, shrewd dealers are beginning
to realise that at their present low values these shares are excellent

There was some further liquidation of Americans in the early part of the week, but the tone since then has been mach firmer, although business has been restricted.
The report that Mr. J. P. Morgan had failed ito induce the Bank of France to export gold direct to America caused some weakness yes terday, the Morgan Stocks being chiefly affected. At the close quotations generally were lower. Chicago-Milwaukee dropped 2, Erie Common 14 New York Central and Steel Preference 1, Unions 1. and Southern Pacific

This is the second largest monthly output this year, the largest being that for August, when the total amounted to 555,027 ounces. The statisties regarding native labour also show further substantial gain. The report has had a good effect upon the market, and the leading Kaffir descriptions have been bonght. There was some eating off yesterday afternoon, but prices were generally bigher on balance, ca
To-day Kaffins have given way on realisations from Paris.
