SENT-FROM Came Just in Time to Pre vent a Much Worse Disaster- Shipments of Our Abroad! Will Also Help the Situation New York. 10. The eventful week in the financial history vantage but I am confident that It of the present generation came to a has done good.

The opening of the close on Saturday with conditions has gone a long way to ie-much' clearer than a week before, bat ment the friendship of my people with with some clouds still hansing "over the financial horiaon- The previous; week had closed with the 'suteting announcement that the New York banks reserves had lost 30,000,00 In cash, and in plt of deposits by the government during tfce week of a r.sarly equal sum, representing a net cash toss of The bank statement ef yesterday changes this situation. While it shows a nominal decrease In required reserves of more than two-thirds of this decrease is due to the reserve requirements caused by Increase In deposits because of the taking over of loans from the trust companies by the baaks. Moreover, the actual cash loss of 14, SI 000 is due to the system of averaging accounts for the entire wae.k Including 'several days before the arrival of the new gold. Unless demands from the are very-heavy next week, the arrival of additional fold will than offset the loss of cash last, week and make a credf table showing' for reserves on Saturday next. The restoration, comparative security in New York was obtained only by demands upon tbe money markets of Europe which create! a tension not before experienced since the Boer war.

Indeed the bank, of Ktiglaad, In order to protect its gold resources, raised Its, discount rate on Thursday to 7 per cent, a rate which had not before been fixed since It" I. The bank of France raised Its rate for discounts to per cent, the bank of Belgium to per cent, and the bank of Germany, at a epecial meeting called on Friday, fixed the unusual rate of 7Vs er cent. It Jsnt, surpt1iing that these precautions were takan to pfotact European bank reserv, In view of the fact (hat nearly fifty million in gold was engaged by American banking in-atltutkwn. within loss-than two weefcs. The first arrival of the yellow metal came at the critical moment when the trust company situation was uncertain.

The demand for gold, from Europe came at a favorable lima In some respects because of the outward movement of American, products of which the leading ones are cotton and wheat The fact that European bankers declined during the summer to accept American finance bills, because they already scented the storm, made the demand upon them more sudden than would have been the case If American bankers bad found it noceasary at the present time to buy rotten and grain bils to cover previous borrowings. One of the favorable features of the situation thus, far Is relatively small number of failures of national banks as compared with the record of im.

At that time 71 national banks suspended in the single month of July and 93 additional In June and August, while during tha first eight months of 1893 the number of suspensions of state; and private banks was 415. In the present crista the number of national banks suspensions reported does not exceed a dosen, and some of these will reopen. The week closes with a favorable commercial situation as Indicated by the report to R. G. Den Company.

Taking hia text rrom Daniel, second chapter, he said: Rav. Gohn's Sermon In the second year of hla reign, Neuuc4iadnexxar, tuxig of Babylon, dreamed a dream wherewith hia spirit waa troubled and hia sleep brake iron him. He saw a great Uuae who 33 brightness was excellent and whoa form was terrible. Tho Image represented tour diiferent kingdoms, wuich nhould arise and pass away in succession the Goa of heaven would set up a kingdom that snail never ix de-Btroyed. Tho head of gold was tha Babylon lan empire concentrated in Nebuch-Unezzar, who was a universal monarch to whom many kings and kingdoms paid tribute.

The anas and breast of silver signi'ied the kingdom in which the Meues and Persians held away, and was Known as the Medo Persian, reign, inaugurated by Darius the Meda ana Cyresuie Persian, between whom an alliance had been formed. The belly and thighs of brass represented the Grecian empire, founded by Alexander the Great on his victory over the last of the Persian powers. Ua overthrow their government and established his own. After the dea.th of Alexander his kingdom was div.ded among his generals, but It continued declining for about 170 years and then passed away. The fourth kingdom symbolized in the image is bvlieved to have been th Roman.

This kingdom was strong a iron, but toward its ctose It became weak as represented by iron and clay mixed. Finally the ewiptre was divided between the east and the west, and then branched out into ten kingdoms, represented by the ten toes of the image. Now the stone which was cut out without hands fell on this kingdom and broke it to We will now concentrate our attention on the significance of the kingdom set up by God. The divihe kingdom which was prophesied in the Old Testament and 140 times spoken of in the New Testament, was set up In the days of th last of the four great kingdoms thai was represented in the image. In th days when Rome had conquered ths world apd was at peace with all nations, because the nations had submitted to her arms.

This ia a spiritual kingdom. The kingdom of the God of heaven. The kingdom of grace on earth. Powei has been purchased at the point ol the sword and sustained often through tyranny and cruelty. Not so with th.

OTTO WOLF IN READING Friends Deny Report That He Disappeared Mysteriously Contrary to rumors of his disappearance, which were current the past several days, friends of Otto Wolf, whom ft waa said had mysteriously disappeared, deny that he Is strangely mlseintr and declare that he has gone to Reading, where he has obtained employment. Wolf is a German shoemaker, about 28 years old, and had been living in York for the past three years. While In this city he made his home with George Altland. 937 Wellington street. Despite his bashful disposition he bad numerous friends but it is not known that he had any other relatives.

He was unmarried and for the past five weeks had been employed at a local shoe repairing plant. His employers stated that he was last seen Saturday one week ago. On the morning of that day he had purchased three theater tickets and later in company with a companion he went to see the show. After witnessing the performance it Is presumed that he left for his new position without telling anyone of his destination. No one could be found who had such interest in him to ask the aid of the police department In locating him.

It was also denied at headquarters that the aid of the police had been solicited. When seen last night by a representative of The Daily, Mr. Altland expressed surprise to hear of his former boarder having so mysteriously left the city. He spoke of him as being a good natural fellow and highly Intellgent. On Saturday before he left," said Mr.

Alt-land, "he came home and after paying his board he announced his Intention of going to Reading." He then left the house and nothing further was thought of him. However, last Friday a letter waa received from Wolf, saying that he had obtained employment and waa well pleased with his new location. MISSED HIS TRAIN because he old not carry a reliable watch.
