Harrison's message leans for war,
Blaine does not favor a war, and
ithinks it best to give the Chilians
time to cool off.
The New York Tribune is for fight.
General Beaver is strongly opposed
to having a war, and thinks Chili too
small to fight with.
Many of the Southern congressmen
more des
cided in that direction than Northern
CONEIessmen.
Ex-speaker Reed will say nothing.
Senator Hill sees no glory in thrash-

MONEY IN THE BANKS,
There i a veritable gold mine in the
banks of New York.
The last bank statement is the most
remarkable one ever issued by the N
York Clearing House,
It showed the deposits of the sixty-
three banks aggregated $489 302 300,
the largest amount in the history of |
New York, and a gain over the pre- |
ceding week of 20,010,000,
This is a larger sum than is held in |
any other financial center in the West
ern Hemisphere. Only London and
possibly one or two other European
money centers can exhibit a more im-|
posing total.
Thirty-nine per cent of the deposits
and loans are held and made by eight
banks and five banks do over one-fourth |
of the business of the Clearing House,
the business of Lwhiel in 1881 amount. |

banks at the ern of business last week |
held $24 566,615 in excess of the legal |
requirement,
