Weekly Market Review. Finance—The feature of the week has been the .large withdrawals of gold for export, thus reducing the reserve to a point causing alarm in financial circles. The causes of the continued drain are numerous, and would seem to be almost irresistible. The balance of trade 1s against us, instead of being as it should be enormously in our favor. Our people will persist in buying from Europe many articles which could Just as (well be bought at home. We have besides to pay many millions of interest on European capital invested here. In addition, per haps as many millions are annually taken over by tourists and others who are eager to spend abroad the money the product iveness of this country yields. And final ly of recent years many millions are an nually paid to Europe by multi-million aire families as dowries to matrimonial alliances. All this goes to show that while Amer ica is the wealthiest country on the globe In point of resources, the benefit of It, through the persistent foolishnqps or van ity of our people goes to Europe. In other words, America simply makes the money for Europd to enjoy. Even this, however, might be over come to some extent, If Europe felt as sured that we could be relied on to main tain what they regard an honest policy In regard to our currency. That is, if Investors over there felt secure, they would he willing to let us owe them, 1 allow the money to remain here pro ductively employed; then the drain would cease. But if the uneasiness increases, it can only result in the wholesale with drawal of principal as well as interest; and the magnitude of the effect of such action upon our financial condition can not easily be imagined. Futhermore, there is some uneasiness on the subject by our own people, causing gold to be hoarded. This means that gold Is already the more valuable money, whether quoted at a premium or not. Hence, under such circumstances, any ef fort of the government to maintain the re serve is merely indefinite temporizing at best. Apparently the only remedy is prompt, decided and unequivocal legis lative action. Chiefly owing to the gold shipments, stocks in New York have been dull and heavy for about everything. The bears in the industrial list have availed of the op portunity to depress these issues, especial ly, by renewing the talk of legal entangle ments, outside competition, etc. Mean while the leading trusts, such as sugar and tobacco, go right on paying their an nual 12 per cent, dividend, and are quite likely to continue so doing, talk to the contrary notwithstanding. Cotton—Speculation has been fairly ac tive, and although about the middle of the week prices were depressed to the lowest point, yet reached since the advance, that is to 8.03 e for January in New York, a de cided improvement followed, and at the close the feeling Is distinctly firmer, about 33 points above the lowest, and 22 points net advance for the week. The gain is due to the strength and activity of Liverpool, where the spot sales have been large; stim ulated by our very small receipts; the movement falling short of all estimates, and with similar indications for the new week. New York still acts bearishly, making but a niggardly response to Liverpool's lead; believing, or affecting to believe, that the crop is larger than currently estimat ed. This bearishness of Now York is seen from the fact that during the past month or two prices there have lost about 30 points as compared with Liverpool. It is probable that this crop has been marketed more rapidly than any crop of recent years, producers having been anx ious to get the benefit of prices so much higher than expected when the crop was planted. If this view proves correct, prices will move upward as those who now doubt its accuracy become convinced of their error. Wheat.—Receipts continue large at spring wheat centers, but a heavy falling off in deliveries from first hands is an nounced. The visible supply, however, piles up, and the market was dull and heavy almost all the week, December reaching the low poln* of 55*4c. Towards the close, a firmer tone set in, ami prices recovered be, closing with a healthier feeling, giving some grounds to hope that we may be near the long expected turning point. Exports are fairly liberal, probably above the proportion, which our crop as a whole would Justify. The new winter crop is backward, In poor condition gen erally, and also on a materially reduced acreage. The situation Is such that the appear ance of any considerable speculative de mand would result in a rapid and ma terial advance, and It is difficult to see what could happen to cause any further considerable recession In prices Warfield & Williams. t Millionaire Without Any Money*.

THE MORNING NEWS: MONDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 1895. BOOK NOTICES. “Nursery Ethics, - ’ by Florence Hull Winterburn. The Merriam Company, 67 Fifth avenue. Now York. Cloth *I.OO. This is a charming little volume and it con tains many common sense suggestions. V\ hat the author tries to do is to impress upon parents the necessity of Justice to children and it is but fair to say she has done her work well. "The Mystery of Witch-Face Mountain, and Other Stories,” by Charles Egbert Craddock. Houghton Mifflin & Company, New York. Cloth 8.25. No one can read Charles Egbert Craddock's stories with out feeling he Is perusing the work of a superior mind. The stories are a fair por trayal of Tennessee mountain life. The characters are from living models, and the scenes are often from real life. The stories In this volume will bear a second reading without loss of interest. “A Breath of Suspicion," a novel by Frances Isabel Currie. F. T. Webb, pub lisher, 200 West Fifty-second street. New York. Paper 50 cents. This is a well writ ten and deeply interesting story. It deals with two lives, and the reader follows the troubles of the man and wife with con flicting emotions and rejoices that their differences have a happy ending. “Hot Shots,” by Sam Jones. Southwest ern Publishing House, Nashville, Tenn. Cloth, 8.50. This is a handsomely bound volume, and contains a biography of Rev. Sam Jones and some of his most notable sermons. It Is quite handsomely Illus trated, the illustrations being the por traits of Rev. Sam Jones, members o; his family, and pictures of his home In Cartersville, Ga. The book is a very read able one. "Tales From Town Topics.” Town Topics Publishing Company, 208 Fifth avenue, and 1128 Broadway, New’ Y’ork. Paper, 50 cents. The leading story of this number is “Out of the Sulphur," and it Is a bright and entertaining one. It Is by< T. C. DeLeon. There are other spark ling little bits In thh number which, with , the story, make a very interesting volume. { “The Christ Has Come—the Second Ad- l vent an Event of the Past,” by E. Hamp- | don-Cook, M. A. Simpkin, Marshall, Ham ilton, Kent & Cos., London, publish, rs. ; This is an appeal from human tradition I to the teaching of Jesus and his apostles. “The Big Bow Mystery," by T. Zangwill. Band, McNally & Cos., publishers. New York. Paper, 50 cents. This Is one of the Globe series of stories, and a rather startling story It is. MAGAZINES The Christmas Century Is notable both plctorlally and for its literature. Per haps the most striking and novel illustra tions are those by Tissot, from his well known series, “The Life of Christ,” which have been seen only In Paris, but which may later be placed on exhibition in the United States. Another set of interesting illustrations is by Louts Loeb, the Amer ican artist, accompanying an article on “The Passion-Play at Vorder-Thlersee.” Vlbert’s well known picture, “The Grass hopper and the Ant," Is reproduced in the series of pictures now running in the Cen tury by this distinguished French artist. A little story by the artist aecompanhs the reproduction of the painting. This number gives the opening chapters of a story called “Tom Grogan,’’ by F. Hop kinson Smith, with pictures by Mr. Rein hart. "Tom Grogan” Is a character which is likely to take Its place among the curious and popular contemporary figures presented to the public r>y Mr. Smith. A real old-fashioned Christmas story by Stockton Is entitled “Captain Eli’s Best Ear." Among the short sto ries, however, none will attract more at tention than Rudyard Kipling’s "The Brushwood Rqy,” accompanied by a dreamland map. Mr. Leslie J. Perry de scribes with numerous examples from the records the "Appeals to Lincoln's Clemency,” and the Rev. Dr. Hunger has a suggestive paper called “Music, Heavenly Maid.” The Century Company, Union Square, New Y’ork. The Christmas spirit runs all through the December number of St. Nicholas. "How a Street Car Came In a Stocking,” Is told by Harriet Allen. It was not a lit tle toy affair, but one that had carried passengers in a great gity for many years. Just how happy it made the re cipient every little boy can imagine. Sa rah Orne Jewet, in ‘‘Betty Leicester's English Christmas,” gives further ex periences of a heroine who has already made many friends. There is almost a touch of pathos in “A Christmas White Elephant,” by W. A. Wilson, Jolly as the story is. A little girl falls In love with her Christmas tree, which she imagines is alive after reading one of Hans Ander sen's tales, and her parents are at their wit’s ends to know how to dispose of it. James Whitcomb Riley contributes a child-poem that is in his most imagina tive vein, "The Dream March of the Children/’ and Bertha E. Bush describe s in verse "The Christmas Song of Caed mon.” But attractive as are these holi day features, they do not constitute the leading charm of the number. This will be found in "Letters to Young Friends,” by Robert Louis Stevenson. The maga zine has been fortunate enough to secure a number of letters written by Stevenson to Ills little ward, Austin Strong, and to other children. The serials are repre sented by interesting chapters. The Cen tury Company, Union Square, New York. The December number of Harper’s Mag azine presents a holiday appearance in its cover of white, gray, and gold, and the il lusion is not dispelled by an examination of the contents, beginning with a frontis piece In color. This frontispiece Is one of twelve Illustrations of a series of four sketches by Howard Pyle, with which the number opens. Rarely has Harper’s been embellished with moie beautiful pictures than these, and they are worthily suc ceeded by the work of Frederic Homing- | ton, Albert E. Sterner, W. T. Smedley, J. R. Wegnelin, F. V. Du Mond, R. Caton, Woodville, and the other illustrators of the number. Mr. Hardy's story, "Hearts Insurgent,” is succeeded by the opening chapters of William Black’s new novel, “Briseis.” illustrated by W. T. Smedley, from sketches made last summer in Scot land. The opening paper of Caspar W. Whitney’s series of articles on his journey “On Snowshoes to the Barren Grounds,” of British North America appears with twenty-two illustrations. Poultney Bige low, describes that most tragic episode in modern history, the retreat of Napoleon from Moscow. Unusually spirited illustra tions by B. Caton Woodville accompany the description of this disaster. The short stories include a picture of fashionable New York life, by Brander Matthews, call ed “An Interview with Miss Marlens puyk." in which the newspaper woman is introduced. —Harper Brothers, New York. The Christmas number of Scribner’s Magazine always has some artis tic novelty, and 'this year it is a series of twelve full-page illustrations by Oliver I Herford for a fantastic story, entitled "The Kinetoseope of Time,” by Brander Matthews. Mr. Matthews’ story is equal ly original in conception, and is a fitting companion to his "Primer of Imaginary Geography,” published last year. The short stories in this number are remarka ble for their ingenuity In plot, and for their delicate sentiment. Frank R. Stock ton has a Christmas love story, with the characteristic "title “The Staying Power of Sir Rohan”—which is In his very best manner. In an entirely different mannes is Charles E. Carryl’s thrilling detective story, "The ltiver Syndicate" 'which sug- K* st* the best work of Sherlock Holmes). Henry van Dyke, under the title "A White Blot,” hart a most poetic and Imag- i inatlve tale of a picture.

Luther Me- Gilvray, one of the oldest and best known Iron merchants in St. Louis, the father of nine grown children, was married this evening to Miss Clara Fleschert, (he young and pretty assistant secretary of the Missouri State Bunday School Asso ciation. Miss Fleschert's office Is Just across the hall from that of Col. McGilvray in the Laclede buildlnjf, and there she writes her reports on the typewriter. One day the colonel came in and asked her if she would write a letter for him. "She would be more than pleased.” and so she was, when the old gentleman hes itatingly confided to her that he wanted to dictate a proposal of marriage to a young woman. That would be great fun. Miss Clara was just the least bit warm as she sat down to write. She didn't know the proposal was for her. nor guess even when tne colonel said, "Now put yourself In my sweetheart's place nnd write just W'hat you would like an old lover like myself to say to you.” So be tween the colonel’s apt suggestion and Miss Clnra's discriminating Judgment the proposal was drawn up. Of course there was a blank space at the top where the colonel was to write in the fair one's name. The next day she received the proposal with her name tilled In. She objected to the strategy, and said. “Nay.” Then the gallant colonel sat down and wrote a proposal with pen and ink, which Miss Clara liked better, and after waiting several months, accepted. The colonel Is In some doubts as to how grown daughters will receive his youbg wife. 1 ,4 —William Morris, whom the world usu ally thinks of as artist and poet, is a practical printer and the Inventor of a printing press which has turned out the most beautiful work, technically, of the day.
