MORE fiOLlVTIIAN NOTES.
A (.Miccr Condition of Affairs In New York
Hanks.
New York, March 19. The operations
of the Bel mon t-Morgun syndicate in
connection with fhe new government
loan are bringing about some curious,
but no doubt temporary, complications
In some of the banks In regard to their
caHh holdings. For instance, today
Homo of the bnuks are well supplied
with gold, but me short of United
States (legal tender) notes. At least
three well-known bunks have had to
borrow this week.
They do not want to part with their
gold periimuciitly, so they exchunge
some of It temporarily for legal tender
notes with a neighboring; bank. In a
few days they will gain somo notes
through the Clearing House In payment
of a. credit bulunce, and then they will
get back their gold. It Is expected that
theso complications' will adjust them
selves in u short time, but In the meun-
whlle a much more active demuud for
money is expected by bankers, und they
show a disposition to murk up the
rates for loans as the surpju.1 reserve
in the banks decreases.

RAILWAY ON .MONT 1U..VNC.
Will Itun a Long nUtuuce Toward the
Summit in a Tunnel.
London, Murch 13. The proposed rail
way to the top of Mont ltlanc Is to com
mence at the i.Miuge ravine above St.
tiervalse, und will ut once be curried
llirouith a teuimel 7.400 metres In length.
From this point a vertical shaft, l!,SO0
metres in height, would bring the
traveler to the summit. The engineer
does not Ignore the difficulties of the
scheme, especially as the height of bin
vertical shaft would be more than
double those now In exlutence.
He considers, however, that the feat
could be accomplished in ten years, at
an expenditure of $1,400,000. The tun
nel would be carried in a straight line
as far us the Italian frontier, which it
would then fringe for about 1,500 metres.
It Is added that all this would be of
great advantage in connection with the
observatory which Is being erected at
the top of Mont Plane, as It could thus
be reached ut all seasons of the year.

INDUSTRIAL TOPICS.
Reports that the Lehigh Valley Is
selling anthracite at tidewater ut 'i are
current, but have no basis in truth.
Assistant General Passenger Agent
lloyd. of the Pennsylvania, announces
that his company has no intention of
abandoning the use of clergymen's half
fare permits. This will end the effort to
abolish the use of such permits in trunk
line territory.
President Ashley, of the Wabash, pro
poses a new plan for pensioning and in
suring Wubash employes. His idea is
to set aside a certain sum each year as
a fund from which to pay Jl.OUO for each
live years' service until a maximum is
reached to the families of deceased em
ployes, and also to pay proper pensions
to disabled or aged employes.
At the Altoona shops of the Penn
sylvania a number of new locomotives
are being constructed. Among -these
are several shifting engines of a new
class, V, with syllnders 17 by 24 Inches,
weighing 80,000 pounds, and carried on
four wheels. They are also getting out
a new consolidation compound after
the style of the S-wheel compound built
at the Pittsburg Locomotive works,
which did remarkably good work when
tried on the Pennsylvania. They are
also working on the drawings for a new
fast express engine, which will be much
different from anything now in use on
that road.
A reixirt was current Saturday to the
effect that an agreement of some sort
hud been reached by the leading inter
ests In the anthracite coal trade, where
by a settlement of the differences that
have been the Immediate cause of the
unsatisfactory state of the trade Is to
be effected. No official confirmation of
this rumor could be obtained, although
some color of plausibility was given It
by the strength of the shares of the
coal-carrylng companies In the stock
market In the morning. One version of
the story was to the effect thut the
presidents of all the companies Inter
ested, with the Hlngle exception of the
Lai'kuwutiun, had agreed upon a basis
for the division of tonnage in JS!i.".
At the Reading and Lehigh Valley
offices nothing was known about the
rumor, and It was generally discred
ited. General Manager Provost, of tin
Pennsylvania railroad system, has Is
sued his report of the 1,X!H operations of
the Northern Central rallwuy and
branches, a comprehensive summary
of which follows: Gross earnings,

When A. A. McLeod was president of
the Reading, he sent a representative of
the company to Europe to see If an
thracite coal could not be Introduced In
that country. The representative paid
particular attention to London and oili
er English towns, but for some rea
son he did not meet with much success.
The great trouble he had to contend
with was that the Itrltlsh were used
to burning bituminous coal and had not
been educated to the use of anthrucite.
Reside this, their stoves are not of the
kind suitable for tha burning of the
hard coal, as nearly all the houses use
open grates. During the last two years
the climate In England has undergone
a great change, as It has been found
Impossible to heat the houses with the
open, grates. A few weeks a large lot
of anthracite burning stoves were or
dered from this country, and shortly
afterward the Atlantic Transportation
company took a number of the stoves
as part of a cargo. It Is contended by
the Philadelphia Press that this Is the
first movement of- the introduction of
anthracite coal In London, ae along
with the stoves the transportation com
pany was asked to quote a rate on
anthracite coal. It Is contended that
anthracite coal can be placed fh London
at about $8 per ton, which Is only a little
more than the price of bituminous coal
at that place,
STOCKS AM) 110M)S.
New York, March 19, The activity
at the Stock' exchange continues. The
sales today footed up 251,000 shares.
The business was again well distrib
uted and it was noticeable that the re
actions . brought In fresh orders. The
vise In prices was equal to Vi and 2V4,
Jersey Central leading. The Improve
ment in the anthracite coalers Is as
cribed to the covering by the bears who
are alarmed by reports that the presi
dents at the meeting on Thursday will
settle the vexed question of allotments.
The low-priced Issues were taken on a
liberal scute. In the Industrials Sugar
declined to 7, rose to MS; fell to MU
und left off at H7. The Idea prevails
that the pool responsible for the recent
rise has made Its turn and Is not averse
to seeing lower ilgures. Chicago Gus
was also rather heavy, but Oencral
Electric und Cotton oil gained 1 and 2
per cent. Near the close the railway
list ran off with Sugar. In the linul
trading, however, a tirm tone prevailed.
Net changes show gains of ,i to 1 per
