BERLIN, Oct. 17.—The negotiations be- tween Japan and Russia, according to| | the view of the situation taken here, are | | not making progress. Neither side, it ap- pears from official information, will yleld on the essential propositions. Japan per- sists in requiring an agreement that shalf | now delimit their respective spheres of supremacy and declines to consent to the general policy of “drift” wunder which Russlan influence will, the Japanese say, | | steadily bear upon Korea and edge for- ward until the time is ripe for acquiring or of the whole country. n, as previously cabled from here, stermined, according to the German view, to have a settlement with Russia by @ treaty whereby both must abide or else— and the threat is ever in the near back- ground—hostilities will begin. This is the danger in plain view. The Japanese Gov- ernment seemingly makes no particular concealment from the diplomatic corps at Toklo of this attitude, one impression be- ing that Japan is merely playing a diplo- matic game and another that the Govern- ment is in deadly earnest. Russia’s ever-increasing military opera- tions in the Far East and Japan's nearly completed equipments are regarded as pointing either to a settlement before December or to hostilities. Japan's orders for war material were placed in Germany a year ago, and since then have all been delivered or are afloat. Four Japanese officers who have been buying war ma- terial and supervising artillery construc- tion at Essen left Germany for Japan last Tuesday. . ST. PETERSBURG, Oct. 17.—While ex- pressing the hope of a peaceable issue of the Far Eastern crisis, the Novoe Vremya points out that if war breaks out the Russians will rise as one man at the call of the Czar, and there can be no doubt regarding the ultimate issue. The Novoe Vremya asserts that the Japanese belief that Viceroy Alexieff represents the Rus- sian war party is quite erroneous. YOKOHAMA, Oct. 17.—A Cabinet Minis- ter says that Japan, agreeing with the Marquis Ito, while stipulating the integ- rity of Korean and Chinese sovereignty, makes no point of the military evacua- tion of Manchuria, thus simplifying the negotiations. The bellicose rumors con- tinue, but the reports of Russian aggres- sion In Korea are proving to have been exaggerated. —_———— SAN JOSE, Oct. 17.—The Grange to-day took steps to prevent the sending out of fruit from gther_counties bearing Banta _Clara County hands in see that INTERNATIONAL BANK 15 GLOSED ! City ot Mexico Branch in Trouble From Over-Lending. CITY OF MEXICO, Oct. 17.—The Inter- | natiopal Bank and Trust Company of America, W. H. Hunt, president, with | branches in New York and San Francisco and various points throughout Mexico, closed its doors this morning in voluntary | liquidation and posted & notice to that effect on the doors of the bank in this city. This institution has advertised that it has a pald-up gold capital of $1,850,000 and deposits of about $1,500,000 silver. The in- sitution has been in existence for some four years and had until recently enjoyed public confidence. The cause of the fail- ure is said to be overlending. The depositors embrace a large num- ber of rallway construction contractors and men of the English speaking colony in this city. President Hunt arrived from New York to-day, but made no statement, though later the management issued a statement saying it was deemed best to close the doors of the bank, it was hoped only temporarily, and that the prospects were that the depositors would not lose a cent. There will be much distress among de- positors, many of whom are contractors who to-day came to the city to draw funds to pay their men. No other American bank is effected, all being solvent. A large ount of cash was offered to the failed institution to- day, but is was sald not to be sufficient. The International Banking Corporation has no connection whatever with the In- ternational Bank and Trust Company. PUEBLO, Colo., Oct. 17.—Oil has been struck in a well bore elght miles northwest of this city. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS CURIOSITY Leads to Investigation and Truth.

Shipbuilding ;I‘rust Proceed- ings Has Potent Senti- mental Effsct. ez B NEW YORK, Oct. 17.—Yesterday's sharp recovery in prices brought in a ! large number of buying orders this morn- | ing and the stock market was very ac- tive during the first hour. By the end | of that time it became very evident from | narrow movement of prices that the de- | mand was being freely fed to take profits {on yesterday's advances. The bears there- | upon became less sollcitous to cover their | short contracts and ommenced to buy. | The sellers allowed prices to slip back | [ to about last night's close, at which level | ! there was a large decrease in the volume | | of business. The market for the rght was | | somewhat hesitating and irregular. An| | advance of about & point in Amalga- | | mated Copper, United States Steel pre-| | ferred and Union Pacific had a reassur- | |ing effect and steadied the market, but | | failed to Mft it to a materially -higher | | level. A number of the industrials which | haa suffered violent losses during the | | week made sharp recoveries and the high ' | priced coalers were marked up several | points at a time on the professed confl- | | dence that accumulations of steam sizes ! of anthracite are being worked off, | | The bank statement was regarded as| | favorable. The furtaer contraction in { loans is a satisfactory development and | the small decline in cash reserves in face | of the apparent gain by the banks on the week's currency movement is attrib- | | uted to possible withdrawals by the trust | compantes. The market did not hold and | | closed easy but dull. [ I DISTURBING FACTORS. The stock market has been unsettled | during the week by a number of disturb- ing factors and continuance of liquidation | in spot. The trouble has centered in the | industrials as for some time and the | dwindling line between that class and the railroad stocks has grown distinct. This has led to some effort on the part of pro- fesslonal operators to inaugurate an up- | ward movement in the rallroad list in face of the continued depression in indus- trial. But the attempt met with meager | success, beyond the comparative steadi- | ness of the shares of railroads, until the | sharp rally on Friday. The disturbing ! influences have come from outside sources | rather than from local quarters and still | have to do largely with security market | considerations rather than general busi- ness and Industrial factors. Thus the un- settlement on the Pittsburg Stock Ex-!| ‘change has been reflected on the New | York Exchange. The prospect of the passing of dividends on the Crucible Steel preferred stock caused by the falling ! through of the intended purchase of the Clairton Steel Company by the United | States Steel Corporatien has thrown a | | burden of liquidation of more readily | marketable stocks upon the New York market, especially of United States Steel stocks, which have flgured conspicuously |in the week’s disturbance. The London | stock market hag passed through a trou- blesome settlement during the week which proved a severe strain and re- | flected some influence upon the outside financial world. | At the same time the market has not been free from depressing influences ! drawn from industripl developments. The | reduction in the dividend and the formid- able decrease in the net earnings of the | United States Steel Corporation has been | | a persistent influence. Official admissions | | of large reductions in working force by a { number of great rallroad systems have pointed-to a general policy of retrench. ment in that quarter of the industrial waorld. The departure of an inspection | | party of United States Steel officials with | | the avowed purpose of seeking measures | of economy of operation and reduction of | working force where possible pointed to the same conclusion. EFFECT OF STRIKES. The troubles in the structural steel trade are attributed in a large degree to the tying up of building operations by strikes In New York and other large citles. The intended reduction of forces in the steel works Indicates the reaction- ary effect of this cutting off of important consumption. With the reduction of work- ing forces on railroads the economlic prob- lem of reduction of consumption growing out of stoppage of wages gains Increasing welght in the consideration of the out- look. The sentimental effect of the United States Shipbuilding proceedings upon the stock market would be difficult to esti- mate. There is no difficulty for the well- informed to make discriminating judg- ment among the many industrial securi- ties in the market, and there is no dispo- sition in such quarters to view the ship- building instance as other than an ex- DR.

Thompson, Member of Congress, Fifth Alabama District, gives the following indorsement to Peruna: The Peruna Drug M'f'g. Co., Columbus, Ohio.

As so many of my friends have been benefited by its | use, I have no hesitation in recommending {At to the public.”—Fred 8. Goodrich. Peruna has cured more catarrh than all the other remedies combined. It is exact- Iy as Congressman Goodrich of Oklahoma says: tarrh, but also a most vigorous tonic.” These two facts are beyond controversy. Any remedy that operates to tone up the whole nervous system will also operate benefictally upon catarrh, Catarrh Is simply a flabby condition of the mucous membrane. This flabbiness has been brought about by exposure to cold which finally depresses the nerves supplying the mucous membrane. Peruna operates immediately to Hon. D. L. Russell, C.. writes from Wilmington, N. C., as follows: “I cheerfully join with United States Senator Pritchard and Congressmen Blackburn and Linney in recommending Peruna as an invigorating tonic.”” A A A A A A A A A A L A ‘“Peruna is not only a cure for ca- | ex-Congressman and Governor- strengthen these nerves and give tone to the mucous membrane. There is no other internal catarrh remedy that has proven effective in all cases. The most distinguished men of the United States have no hesitation in lend- ing their influence to assist in letting the people know of the virtues of Peruna. Nearly one-half the people are in some degree affected by catarrh. Therefore it | is almost a national curse and it is of na- tional import that the people should know | of Peruna. Pe-ru-na Cannot Be Imitated. Some things may be successfully imitat- ed, but Peruna cannot be. ivery ome pur- chasing Peruna should look out for imita- tions. Examine each package carefully. If you have ever used Peruna or if you have ever tasted it, you zre not in the | slightest danger of being misled by these imitations, but all those beginning the use of Peruna should beware. Beware of imitations. Believe no one who tells you that he has a remedy that is making the same cures that Peruna is making. it you have any doubt as to the gen- uineness of the bottle of Peruna you are using, write to Dr. Hartman and the fraud, if there be any, will soon be de- tected. If you d¢ not derive prompt and satis- factory 'eégults from the use of Peruna, write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving a full statement of your case, and he will be pleased to give you his valuable advice gratis.

Statistics of earnings bear ‘out these claims and continue the average increase over the corresponding periods | of previous years. Reports of freight blockades and of car shortages owing to enormous demands of traffic have been received from various parts of the Middle and Far West. Bank clearings the coun- try over are well maintained. The past week has marked the passing of the pe- riod -of danger to the corn crop, and the Government's statistics point to a large crop safely made. Money continues easy and fears of stringency are no longer felt. The foreign trade statement for Septem- ber reflects the late outward movement of corn and cotton, due to the lateness of the crops, but shows general exports well maintained, while a decline from the re- cent high level of our imports brings the excess of export values up to only about $5,000,000 less than in September of last year. - These considerations were only partly effective in offsetting the weight on the side of the depression. peinatsRRs s UNEXPECTED LOSS IN CASH. Estimates Seemed to Indicate a Large Increase. NEW YORK, Oct. 17.—The Financier says: The notable feature of the official statement of the New York Associated Banks last week was the unexpected loss of $604,400 in cash. The estimates which were based upon the traceable movements of money during the week seemed almost unmistakably to indicate not only an in- credse $1,418,400 in cash, but even a larger afiount as the result of Friday's Sub-Treasury operations. While there might have been some slight error in the calculation of loss on the interior bank movement, the reports upon which the gains in cash, through receipts of new gold, the payments for redeemed bonds and the Sub-Treasury operations, were computed could scarcely ‘fail to be accu- rate, and it was from these items that the net results were obtained. The discrepancy of $2,000,000 between the estimated gain and the official loss cannot be accounted for on the theory of averages. The loans, as reported by the statement, decreased $4,836,000; this was probably the result of the liquidation in stocks early in the week and of subse- quent contraction of bank loans as a con- sequence of the depression in the market for the greater part of the remalnder of the week. The deposits were reduced $5,823,700, an amount $402,900 In excess of the sum of the decrease in loans and of the loss of cash; hence, the statement failed to prove. The surplus reserve was reduced by $2,460,92% because of the dimin- ished deposits and deducting from the sum the net loss of cash left $856,125 as the gain in surplus reserve to $17,433,230; thts Is nearly $12,000,000 greater than the surplus at the corresponding date last year. Computed upon the basis of de- posits less those of $37,237,900 of public funds, the surplus reserve s $26,742,126. The item of circulation showed only a slight change, there being an increase of $8400. Loans were in excess of deposits by $16,499,100. The daily average of clearings for the week were $186,000,000, against $187,000,000 in the previous week. Satur- day's clearings, reflecting Friday’'s busi- ness, were a little higher than the aver- age, being $186,393,479. Comparisons of changes in loans show decreases by eight banks in this item of $4,100,000 net. The changes in cash resulted in a net gain by six banks of $1,400,000.
