LONDON, Oct. 27.—The Stock Exchange had another dull experience last week, without any appreciably brighter outlook for the near future. The money market was the most interesting feature of the situation. The threatened drain of gold to Paris materialized and the open market | rate responded, advancing from 2% to 3. A considerable quantity of gold was taken out of the bank, creating some popular de- mand and an increase in the official/rate of discount. In view of the ct that the gold reserve | is now under £25,000,000, an advance in the rate Is very probable, but there is noth- ing to indicate when it will be made. ‘The same factors which deterred speculation in the week previous continued to operate this week. Chief among these was the South African situation, every heavily censored cable report .rom that point be- ing eagerly scanned in the hope of favor- able developments, but in some instances without result. An instance of the way South African news is being *“‘doctored” for the benefit of the public and the Stock Exchange was afforded when the papers all announced in large headlines that one British column had brought in 250 prisoners to Kleerks- dorp, October 17. Kollowing .this sensa- tion was a Cape Town message saying that the net result of sweeping operations by four or five British columns through tne Rustenburg regioh dur.ng the five months prior 10 Oc.over 17 had been the capture of 20 fugitives, thirty-seven of wuom had guns. The public, however, remains aloof of the Stock lxchange, leaving the profes- sionals to scaip fractions out of one an- otner. Home rails continued fairly firm durfng the week, and Americans furnished some interest, rising in response to New York quotations, but there was little actual trading. Consols, always fell 1 11-16 points. BERLUIN, uct. :7.—Last week the Boers: had a quiét and uneventful experience, with no considerable changes of quota- tions in any department. Several weeks now having passed with- out freshnrevelations of business disaster, the opinion is gaining ground that the most critical stage ot the economic dis- ease has been passed. Accordingly, indus- trial securities fairly maintained quota- tons throughout the week. Althougn the Cologne Volks Zeitung denies that the German iron industry shows the slightest improvement in any branch the most re- cent sales in Great Britain and the United States have made a good impres- sion. The Boersen Courler learns that the Americans have recently taken 15000 3d- ditional tons of splegelisen. Referring to the situation in the United States the Frankfurter Zeltung says: _ It is @ favorable factor for our industry that the American iron works are usually well em- ploved and scarcely able to take further or- ders. Naturally this -reduces the other sharp competition of the United States in the mar- kets of the world and gives the German indus- try a freer field, 5 It is striking that German workers have se- cured a large order in Cuba, which is a natural market for the United States. However, the fact should be emphasized that the price which e n manufacturers conceded leaves a little, if any, a reliable barometer, profit. American railroad shares were firmly I held throughout the week until yesterday, especially ~Northern Paclfic, upon the strength of the expected combination, but yesterday they were heavily offered in consequence of the latest advices from = g ing former members of Clement's com- panies, printers and advertisers. One of the creditors is W. A. Clark Jr. of Butte, Mont., who holds the actor's note for $1500. The assets consist principally- of scenery and costumes in various theaters. Another ‘item is the copyright of a play, “With Other Eyes,” valued at $1000. Clay Clement is well known all over the Pacific Coast and has many friends and s in San Francisco. His last here was about eighteen when, with_his own com- months ago, pan and *“The Bells” at the Columbia Theater. At the close of that engagement he toured Australia with Nance O'Neill. Clement was interested with McKee Rankin in a stock company at the Alcazar about seven vears ago. He was well known In Seattle, where He was for a considerable time leading man in Cordray’s stock company. St e @ WEYLER GRUSE oTIR N SPAIN Remarkable Statement Made Belore Cham- ber ot Deputies. MADRID, Oct. 27.—During yesterday's sitting of the Spanish Chamber of Depu- ties, which proved sensational, Seno: Romero y Robledo cleverly led the Min- ister of War, General Weyler, to definc his attitude and intentions. General Wey- ler declared that while the war in Cubi lasted his views were totally distinet from those of the Liberal party, but that | when the war was at an end the motiva | for separation disappeared and he saw | nothing to prevent him attaching him- self to a Liberal Government. Weyler | saia: | 1 have always faithfully observed discipline, and he who talks of dictatorship Is the enemy of disoipline. Our recent maneuvers have | proved that good feeling exists between the people and the army. As for djctatorship, no | one thinks of such a thing. Dictators are the | offspring of circumstances. For myself I may | suy this: I huve never thought of being one, nor do I now. Nevertheless, If my aid were | asked at a moment of gravity I do not know | | how 1 should decide between my political and military duties, but I should always incline to- ward the latter. | Loud and prolonged uproar interruptel the Minister of War, and several of his | Finisteriai colieagues were unable to re- | strain expressions of surprise at his | words. Kesuming, Weyler sald: I am a politician and a Liberal, but before | all 1 am a soldier; and If it shouid become | necessary I wiil defend our institutions and Parliament Senor Romero rejoined: 1 take mote of the declarations of the Min- ister of War on the subject of a dictatorship. General Weyler's speech largely occu- pied public attention in view of the pos- ! sibility_that he may become Premier if | Senor Sagasta, whose health is indiffer- | ent, shouiu find it necessary to retire. kil Impareial remarks that “a dark cloul | enshrouds General Weyler since the de- | bate.” After attacking Senor Silvela, the Con- servative leader, for advocating an_alli- ance between krance and Spain, Senor Romero attacked General Weyler for in- specting the forts in the neighborhood of | Gibraltar without due cause. He declared that these actions were “imprudent and dangerous as tending to create an appre- hension in a powerful country which has ; always advocated Spanish predominance in_Morocco.” El Pais asserts that Senor Sagasta will shortly resign the Premiership owing to | Il health. L e e e e i 2 e ) New York, Northern Pacific closing at 102%. Canadian Pacific closed at 108%, The statement of the Reichsbank yester- day showing an improvement in the note reserve of 101,000,000 marks made a.good impression, but it did not influence quota- tions. The National Zeitung says the bank has received 35,000,000 marks in Brit- ish gold during the last five weeks. The monthly settlement has begun under markedly easy money circumstances. The remaining 47,000,000 marks of the Russian Railway loan of 80,000,0000marks will be subscribed Wednesday next. .

It is announced that the international zinc rice arrangement has been. frustrated owing to the refusal of the Silesian con- cerns to restrict production.

The lack of food and the harassing effects of the aggressive tactics now_pur- | sued by the American forces are having their influence upon the ratives. In many places where rice is doled out by the Gov- ernment only. enough is given for each | meal, so that it is hardly poss.ble for any | large quanuty to find 1is way to the in- | surgents, | 1t is believed that the recent manifesta- | tions on the island of Samar were chiefly i due to the lack of food, tne Insurgents finding it necessary to maie outlets to the | coast 1n order to ebtain supp.ies, | The first labor probiem grow.ng out of ! the new tariff has arisen.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 27.—The William McKinley National Memorial Arch Asso- ciation to-day issued this statement the public: President McKinley's memory is enshrined in the hearts of his countrymen.
