Wheat in Brazil.
It has been the common under-

the growing of wheat and similar
grains upon a commercial basis in
Brazil is not possible, but the people
of the State of Rio Grande do Sul

result of their experiments wheat is
now being grown in commercial

PANIC--HUH!
SOME EFFECTS OF THE RECENT FINANCIAL CRISIS.
Panic began on Qctober 16.
Ten banks in New York City suffered runs, some of which forced
suspension. :
Thirty-five banks in other cities suffered runs.
Eighteen deaths have resulted, either suicides or through sickness
brought on by worry.
Three men have been indicted and arrested for bank fund juggling;
at least four others are likely to be.
Seventeen banks in New York City suspended payment wholly or in
part. >
Fifty-four banks in other citites suspended.
Fifteen of this whole number have resumed.
About $125,000,000 has been withdrawn from banks in New York
City, much of it, however, to be redeposited in other banks.
$535,000,000, estimated, has beenwithdrawn from banks elsewhere.

RESUME OF THE PANIC.
Tragedy and Comedy--How the Country-Wide Financial Squeeze
Grew From a Small Failure.
New York City.—The financial squeeze has now been on for a trifle
more than four weeks, and the people all over the country, realizing that
the worst is over, are gathering about the stoves in the corner stores, dis-
cussing what might be called the superficial developments of the panic.
Some of these are mentioned, even yet, with the old shiver of alarm. In
many of them, however, is found humor; in others tragedy. :
For instance, hack in Kankakee the experience of the old “tight wad”
money lender who went to the city to collect a note, insisted on currency
| and had to charter a truck and a freight car to get it home is greeted with
uproarious laughter. But the story of the little widow just around the cor-
ner is recalled in silence. Her small sum was in a city bank which closed.
| She stood hefore ils doors a whole night and a day, and came home, when
the suspension notice was pested, weakened in body and literally scared to
death.
The whole trouble seemed to start fromm one apparently—at that time
—insignificant failure. The failure, however, was followed by rumors in-
he names of several prominent bankers. These were soon forced
5. The trouble spread in waves
cver New York City. The community's spine was shaken with the cold
chills of panic and the ague paszed in waves from Wall Street to Harlem,
the Bronx, Brooklyn and Williamsburg. Bank ofificers who had been skat-
ing on thin ice scrambled for the shore, but their moves only shattered
what support they had had, and they found themselves struggling in the
cold black water of the law.
On this phase of the situation a Harlem bank president who has been
active in the banking world for nearly two score years commented.
Banlker on the Panic.
“There are many bankers, cashiers, bookkeepers and clerks included,”
he said, “who would live to old age without the blight of dishonor if there
were no such thing as bank runs and parics. A man may have invested the
| money he has ‘borrowed’ —-quote that word, please—so safely that he will
actually be able to return it if everything goes right. But the first thing
he knows his bank is involved in trouble like that we have just passed
through, and Lie finds his books in the hands of the bank examiner. Before
jumping-on necks with hobnails in our boots, let's stop and think how many
honest men to-day would have had the blight of State’s prison on their past
had a financial flurry occurred at just the right, or, rather, the wrong time
Who can tell?”
The panic passed over the country like a wave, with its start in Man-
hattan Island. This wave’s progress is reflected in the news dispatches.
The day of the first {rouble here, Boston, Philadelphia and Pittsburg were
sending in optimistic reports in an “I told you so” tone. The next day the
dispatches from these cities told of precautionary measures. Then the pre-
cautions were taken up by cities a little further on, and those near by found
themselves involved in runs and suspensions. And so it went until the wave
broke itself, so to speak, on the Pacific Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico.
Different Kinds of Runs.
There have been, bankers say, three kinds of runs—panic runs, silly
runs and runs started by mistake. The pdnic runs were the general order
resulting from the unsettled state of credit.
At least two runs were started by mistakes in newspaper stories about
the general banking situation.
A run on a bank up the State was caused in this way: The cashier got
a telephone message from home that some medicine was needed immediately
for the baby. The cashier called an office boy, followed him to the door of
the bank in telling him the errand, and sped him on his way with the ad-
monition, ‘““Now run.” Unfortunately two or three panicky depositors were
entering and heard only the word “run” coming from the cashier. They
were influential men in the community, and when they immediately drew
out all their deposits their example was followed by several others. Rumor
took up the case there and handled it in its old thorough-going manner.
The use of clearing house certificates and the premium on money have
resulted in some curious incidents. In St. Louis the certificates were ac-
cepted on street cars. In one town in the Middle West where the lack of
currency was peculiarly felt the merchants, nearly all of whom were man-
ufacturers, paid their workmen in the old-fashioned ‘shin plasters,” and
the town is now in possession of a currency of its own, supplemented by
that of Uncle Sam.
Lots of Silver Used. :
Restaurant men down town, especially proprietors of the grab-and-run
shops, say they have never in their lives seen so many silver dollars and so
much small gold. One of the cheaper restaurants in closing business on
Friday night had more than $2090 in silver dollars. Most of these were
bright and new, but dated from 1870 to 1880. The young woman cashier,
who heretofore has dene the banking for the concern, was unable to carry
the deposit to the bank, and a waiter had to be sent with her,
In the mining communities and towns in which large railroad opera-
tions are going on the employers have been put to it to pay oft their men
and keep them cheerful. A check means about as much to an ordinary sec-
tion hand as a Sanskrit handbill, and when the men found they were receiv-
ing these unusual bits of paper instead of their wages they struck, and in
many instances riot ensued. Many of the shut-downs and curtailments
shown in the accompanying table were due solely to the inability of the em-
ployers to get money to pay off their men, and not to insolvency
And now the climax of the situation seems to be past. Factories are
resuming work and paying their men in currency. Money has poured out
of the banks of New York City and other large financial centres, and been
replaced, at least in part, by gold from Europe. Stockings are once more
giving up their hoards, and the thin layers of new dust have been swept off
the covers of the strong boxes and the lines of depositors are forming at the
right windows to give confidence to the weak kneed. The thirty-day limit
that many savings banks put upon withdrawals has expired, with few, in-
deed, to claim their money; the goose ig banging high,

THE LOBSTER
COCKTAIL NOW,
So Superior to Ordinary Oyster
Variety, That it Is Prof nation
to Compare Them.
Familiar as New Yorkers may be \
with the oyster cocktail, it is safe
to assert that the lobster cocktail will
appeal to most of them as an entirely
new idea. As a matter of fact, how-
ever, the lobster cocktail has lately
become a most delectable reality to
the chosen few who have been invited
to test its merits, for it has been
the general verdict that it is so far
superior to the ordinary oyster
variety of cocktails that it would be
little short of profanation to attempt
to draw a comparison between them.
Of course, there will probably be
some Doubting Thomases who will
require to be convinced of the truth
of this assertion. 1f so, they may
procure a freshly boiled lobster, and,
if they will carefully follow instruc-
tions, they can easily conviace
themselves.
To prepare the new lobster cock-
tail, extract the meat, and cut it into
pieces that are as nearly as dice-like
in size and shape as possible. Chill
the meat thoroughly, and serve it
with a glass of the most savory of
cocktail sauces as an accompaniment.
Moreover, do not let it be forgotten
that a heaping teaspoonful of finely
minced green pepper
will add_a very
sauce that has yet been invented.
The ordinary cream checse seems
to have taken a new

neat luncheons. If the repast is a
somewhat elaborate one, it is with
the ‘salad = course that the cheese
makes its appearance, but if it is a
simple affair, the coming
is delayed until the service
of the desert. In either case, how=-
ever, it is invariably transformed—
sometimes almost. beyond the possi- |
bility of recognition—for, instead of
being served fresh from its original
wrappings, as was once the custom,
it is now mixed with a variety of
ingredients. 5

A Massive Chain. -
~ From an {ronmaker's point of view
the greatest achievement during the
revolutionary period was the mak-
ing of the great West Point chain.
This massive chain, which has prob-
ably never had an equal since the
first: hammer struck upon the first
anvil, was stretched across the Hud-
son river at West Point to prevent
the British fleet from making a sec-
ond attack upon Kingston and Al-
bany. It was nearly a mile in
length, and weighed almost 200 tons,
many links being as heavy as an or-
dinary-sized man. To complete it in
six weeks (60 men hammered day
and night at 17 forges, and the cost
of it was placed at $400,000.—Indian-

Desertions from Army.
Published records of desertions
from the United States Army ‘in the
last year would seem to show that
the cavalry arm is responsible for
most of them. The "coast artillery
corps and the infantry are next in
order, with the field artillery show-
ing a smaller proportion. The en-
gineers corps reports a few isolated
cases of “French leave,” and the sig-
nal corps is happilv almost free
from the evil. Of course, the men
