Goschen, chancellor of the exchequer, today addressed a mecting of the leading bankers and merchants on the financial question. He entered into a detailed statement of s pro- posed scheme for increasing the stock of gold in the Bank of England by the issue of £1 notes to the aumount of £35,000,000 on the same conditions as notes are now issued. After that point they will bo issued at tho rate of four-fifths aguinst wold and one-fifth against securities. If by theso means the stock of gold is largely increased M chen said he would relax the bank charter act so as to allow the bunk in times of internal crisis to issue notes against securities on condition of its paying a bigh rate of interest to the gov- ernment for such issue. Tho scheme would bo an enablng and not a compulsory one. It would depend for its success upon the popu- larity of the £1 notes with baniers and the pudlic. The scheme for issuing 10-shilling silver notes hadbeen dropped, but on the conaition that, 1f foreign governments opened their mints to the free coinage of silver, thy Bank of England would be invited to’ act upon the provisions of the bani charter act, allowing it to hold one-fifth of its bulion 1n silver. e ftailronds Declaring Dividend New Yok, Dee. 2.—Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis and Owmaha have declared semi-annual dividend of 3 per cent.

HOW TO BUILD A MODERN CITy, Consume Nothing Not Manufacture | Within Local Limits When Poasis ble—Concerted Action Nece essary to Success, furnished lust night to e audionce at the G house by the Omaha Manufacturers Consumers association proved to be o do clded success in every particular, The music The entertainment and and spoeches wero recoived with ovi dent enjoyment on tho part of the vast assombly and a genuine feel ing of interest in homo industries prevailed Tho stage was occupied by tho speakers of the eveatug, members of the Appollo clib and prominent citizons doeply intorested i the building up of Omaha's industrios, At ¥ o'clock the curtain roso ana Mr. W. V. Morse, who presidad, said that ho simply wished to open tho meeting by stating that the main object of tho Manufacturers and Consumers ussocintion was to oncourago the consumption of home mado goods. It wa not expeeted, ho said, that people would buy Omaha goods of an_inforior quality at the same price as goods of a superior quality manufacturea abroad. Tho ussociation did not expect peoplo to make a sacrifico of uny kind. All that the Omaha manufacturers could or did conwend for was that Omahn goods should be given tho preference when found to be us good or better than the importad article. Omaha manufacturers wore anxious to see tho peo- plo thoroughly awakened to the 1mportance of patrouizing homo industry. Mayor Cushing's Hemarks, Mr, Morse then introduced Mayor Cush- ng; Yono of the best mayors tho city of Omaha over ad,” Mr, Morso remarkad, and the audience apnlauded. Mayor Cushing said that ho had accustomad to taking place along the pickot line of progross and no was glad that it was his privitoze tosay a word in bohalf of home manufactories. o thought tho era of corucr lot speculation in Omaha had passca. The people of Omata coald not bo satistied with the prosent. They should not rest upon the triumphs of the past. The ace of home manufactories had arrivod and the peoplo had within their reach the making of a great city by manufacturing at_homo thoso articles for which there ought to bea general home demand and market. The thing to do, tho mayor said, was to encourage home manufactories by a practical and hearty patronage of the samo. Talk and talk alone woula do no good. High sounding resolutions, althouch drafted by the most skillful aud eloguent, could not bring the desired resuit. “Get hold of the home patronage idea, said the mayor in_couclusion, “and take it home with you. When you gt iome do not neglect your duty in this particular, but act upon tho theory thatis to be presented to you tonight by able speakers.” “'he Apollo club then sanz a beautiful lection and everybody applauded. Rov. J, T. Duryea was then Ho had been asked, ho_said, to speak upon the topic, “How to Builda City.”” Ho said that there was a vast difference between the methods of butlding ancient and modern cities, Tn ancient times it was necessary to build walled cities with fortresses and strongholds for tho purpose of resisting at- tacks from without. In the middle ages there came to be a new kind of city, It was the city of commerce and trade, These com- merclal cities were usually built upon advan- tageous locations, but ihe success of city building depended very larwely upou_ the en- ergy of the people who undertook to build jt. Fuilding a Modern City. In modern times cities had becomo centers becomo s0- introduced, of organized industry. Iudustry in ancient times was only partially organized. To build up a modern ity it had become necessary to make it a center for the distribution of all sorts of manufactured articles. It would not doto depend upon natural advantages. Plucw and push would accomplish a great deal where natuial nd- vantages would fail. A modern city, the speuker . declaved, should bo abla to show that peoplo could be clothed and fed and boused av moderato cost aund furnished with remuncrative employment within the city limits. It was also necessary, the speaker thought, that merchants, capitalists and investors should bo wade to feal eafe and secure in putting their money 1nto business cuterprises or property in Omaha, It was not enough that laboring men be enabled to sunply their fam- ilies with the bare nceessities of life, but they should also be enabled to educate their children and provide many of the comforts of life, not known to the poorly paid la ers of the old world, In this country where the great food sta- ples were so abundantly produced it cer- tainly secmed that a great and prosperous city ‘should bo baiit up, Omaha should uot be satisfied with an army of toilers, hving in crowded tenements, but the laborers of this city should bo por witteed to gain comfortable homes and by up their ebildren as intelligent and ener citizens should. Dr. .Durvea then touched upon the great undeveloped resourcos of the surrounding country. He belioved that the country about Omaha would coutlnue to produce more and more for 4 century yet to come. Undeveloped R sources, He did not believe in offering lands or subsidies to the manufacturers who conten- plated loeating factories in the west. A wuen better plan, he hold, was to furnish the warket for the goods and’ thus guarantee to the manufacturer a profitable business uwud safe investment. “T'ho speaker then spoke of the tendency of the American people o migrate toward the large cities, He said the numerous advan tages to be found in the large citios w constaut invitation 1o the urban population 10 flock toward the cities. The open library, the public schools, the art gallevies aud other advantages were great incentives to intelligont and ambitious youug people to leave the farm. It became very umportant, therofore, that the leading citizens of all arge cities should see to it thet the vy best governient possible should be p vided und that every advantage be furnished for makiug good ciilzens out of all who came within the jurisdiction of the municipal gov crument. ‘The people siould bo supplicd with pure water, pure air, open public varks, where the comion people might vest wnd recreate with none to molest or bid them 1o wove on. Brotherly belpfulness, whole- hearted honesty and a desire to encouraze ail worthy institutions aud all good enterprises fill the breast of aiizen of should avery Omaba, This courso would finally build a city that would shine in splendor like the ancient Jerusalem and shed its influence for good far ana wide. ‘The speaker was heartily applaude Iev. J. T. Mackey was the noxt speaker. Ho said be always liked that homely old toxt, taken frowm the book of experience, “God Holps Those Who Help Themselves.” Women Can Help, He had been restricted, however, to one articular branch of the subject.’ Ho hud u requested to speak particularly to the wowmen about encouragivg and helving alon home industry. God had | th campaign of nd opera | women who earn their living by tho sweat of their brows, We will give thom employ mont and make them happy ana_contonted.’ | There was prolongod applause whou Rev.

Mr, Henry Estabrook was reguested to | address the augience. Ho thought that Omaha people should experience a revival of patriotism, n o awaveniog of a spirit of home patronage and home industry. Tho manufactories of Omaha wera languish ing on accouut of tho apathy and ueglect upon the part of the people who should assist in the building up of home industries, Tho | most practicablo and most _expedient way to build up a great eity, the speaki said, was for the people to furnish a market for homo wide products Mr. * Istabrook said that this matter should ome the burden of every song, the day dream of every true citizen of Ouaha. He hoped to see the home manufactories ox- perience a great deal of benetit from the ugl ion. Mr, W, hoped the V. Morsa in closing smd that ho udience would not think for o mo. ment Omabn had an fnsigniticant trade i home wade goods. He had seen the day in the history of Omaha when ton travelin lesmen were all that went out from the city. At presont there woere more than 1,000 salesmen traveliug through tus territor contiguous to Omaha selling goods Ho hoped the people of Omaba would assist in making tho number 2,000 within tho next two years. Mr. Morse stated that other entertainments of a similar nature would be given during tho winter by the association. The Apollo club sang a closing song and the large audience filed out of tho opera house highly pleased with the entertainment and fully determineda to patronize homo inaustry.

The departuro from the normal temperature has beon very slight on the Atiantic and gulf coast, while more marked in the iutorior, esnocially over tho ceutral valloys, whoro the deficiency in duily tomperaturo ranged from three to five degroes.

Tho month was warmer that usual to the west of the Rocky mountains, the ireo degrees, ex whore it was less, Tho low mean temperaturo of the month was largely due to the two well marked cold waves, one of which occurrea from tho 16th 1o the 15th, sud the other was passiog off tho Atlantic const at the close of tho month Both of these cold waves were attonded by unusually cold wenther for tho period ducing tomporatures from one to two doy lower than ever proviously racorded for tho soason of the year, and carried the frost line southward over ' northern Florda, with freezing wouther at the closo of the month IXCess amounting to about Pt in southern Califoruin, The advance of theso cold waves was an- noutced by als from twenty-four to thirty-si beforehand, and amplo warning given to the fruit of the south. During tho month of Novembor tho pr itation was in excoss, genc the central valloys, in the the Dakotas, whilo it was less than ususl on the Atlantic and Pacitic coasts and from Texas northward to Nobraskn. The drouth was complotely broken over the winter wheat region and in Mississippi and western Ala- ama, wuero the procipitation for tho mouth ranged from five Lo eight nches, or from two to three inches more than the usual amount. In Now England and New York for tho month it amounted to about two and ou half inchies, or about one inch less thau the normal amount for November.
