Judging by the size of the chest the founder of the house must have struck it rich somewhere before he started out to build him a domicile where he could retain securely to what he had got. And to have transported such a load the donkey must have been a far stronger beast than those employed by the London coster in these days. Whether the story be true or no, Caw- dor Castle is rich in historic associa- tions, which will stand the closest scruti Lord Lovat was sheltered there after the slaughter of Culloden, and the room is still shown in which he rested. The grand old -edifice, moated, with drawbridge, massive de- fensive tower and turrets, stands square to the winds just as it did in feudal days when -business was re- garded as degrading and plundering honorable. Lacking four years of the age at which, according to Dr. Osler a man should be chloroformed, Earl Cawdor is far from regarding himself as nearly played out. Well preserved and of habits, he can buckle down to work in a fashion which causes dismay among the aristocratic understrappers of the Admiralty. In him the family toast has been well fulfilled. He is the father of six sons and fpur daughters. His charming wife, thé belle of the season when he married her in 1868, is still accounted one of the handsom- est of British peeresses.

The estate of Nicholas Luning, who died in August, 1900, is about to make its exit from the Probate Court. George Whittell, as trustee of the Mary Dempsey trust fund of $40,000, has filed a petition asking that the court settle his final account, distrib- ute the fund to the Luning heirs en- titled thereto and release him from further responsibility. Whittell says in his petition that the original fund of $40,000 was invested in. Market- street Rallway 6 per cent bonds in 1900 and that the earnings In the fourteen years and seven months that have passed since then have amounted to $35,000. In addition to one-hailf of this fund to which he is entitled as heir, Whittell asks the court to award him $1520 commission as trus- tee for his years of service. The re- maining half of the fund goes to Anna L. Whittell and Clara E. Folger, each being entitled to one-fourth. NEW YORK, April 1.—The waeklyl bank statement to-day confounded all | previous estimates as to its character. | Notwithstanding the week’s enermoas | demands for credits the banks report a | contraction in loans of upward at{ $10,000,000. The only explanation | can be that the credits kept outstand- | ing in the stock market by the banks | have been withdrawn to meet re- quirements in other directions and that | loans have been made through trust| companies and through other sources. | There is no room to doubt that the | volume of credits as a whole has been | substantially expanded during the| week. The indicated loss of cash of | $4,000,000 is reduced In the showing of the bank statement to about $800,000. The net result is an improvement in the margin of the surplus to the ex- tent of $2,185,250. The appearance of the statement had an encouraging effect on the de- mand for stocks, but the day’s notable movements were confined to the list of specialties. The day's operations were almost wholly in professional hands, but were indicative of a con- fident feeling that next week will see a revival of speculative demand and a quick relxation in the money market. Banking opinion on this péint was by no means agreed in spite of the i nominal strength of the bank state- ent. Prices of stocks have given ground | this week, but in an irregular and re- strained manner, the decline being in- | terrupted by recurrent rallies. This vas belleved to be due to the frequent covering of short contracts by the bear | traders, who thus testified their lack | of confidence in their position. The developments of the week have of- fered nothing to suggest any impair- ment of actual values. Trade and in- dustry are obviously expanding still. But with money market résources re- stricted. means for frée operations in stocks have been lacking and the rate of activity in securities has decreased materially. 2 Each day-during the week there was fear that a flurry would occur in the money market before the day was over. The tendency toward recovery in the latter part of each day on the Stock: Exchange marked the sense of relief at the tranquillity of the money mrakel. The subscription to the $75,000,000 in- stallment of the Japanese loan was the principal event in the money market. The high level of trade activity and the unprecedented volume of bank clearings promise no abatement in the seasonable demands of the interior tor‘ department. Francisco heretofore. “girls to clothe.
