IT WAS A LAND BOOM.
Ono of tho OauBon of tho Crash in
Australia.
Many who have just nrrivod in
this city from Australia, says tho
Snu Francisco Chronicle, find thom
solvos in a vory awkward position.
Thoy loft homo boforo tho crash
camo with drafts on Australian
banks or lottors of credit. Thoso
thoy find, to thoir groat embarrass
ment, local banks will not accopt.
diany will roturn on tlio stoamor
and strivo to savo something. A
fow individuals moro fortunato will
continuo thoir journey to tho
World's Pair city.
Some of tho pnssongora addod to
tho stories told in yostordny's Chroni
cle Most of thorn toko thoir trou
bles philosophically and hopo for
tho best.
Ono of tho roconl arrivals by tho
Monowai, an intelligent, Australian
of good position and standing in
tho Colonies, was questioned yester
day as to tho causo of tho bank dis
asters. "To give you details and a
full reply would tako too long," said
ho. "Howovor, I can give a briof
outline of tho situation. Five or
six years ago tho Australian banks
had more inono3' on hand than thoy
know what to do with. Thov would.
of course, novor acknowledge that
fact, but at tho same titno thoy
simply jumped at any chanco of
granting an overdraft on reasonably
good socurity. At that time a fow
land speculators started what is
now known throughout tho Colonies
as tho 'land boom.' To show that
thoso promoters wore not merely
mon of straw I may mention that ono
of tho first and most successful was
Sir Matthew Honry Davios, Spoakor
of tho Legislative Assombly of Vic
toria. Thoir plan was to purchase
a good-sized farm or any block of
land near tho city; then thoy got it
subdivided into streets and building
allotinonts, and put the lots up at
auction at so much por foot on tho
installmont plan. It was generally
nocossary to pay a ridiculously small
deposit and tho balance over ono,
two or more yoars, as the case might
be. So strong is tho Britisher's
wish to own a home of his own that
thousands of artisans and others
rushed in with their small deposits
and secured allotinonts. Every
Saturday sales took place and ono
could soo four-horse drays and other
vehicles waiting to tako purchasers
or thoir friouds out to the ground.
Hundreds wont only for tho drive
and caught tho land mania on the
ground, especially when the free
lunch had been produced. This
lunch, by the way, was a groat at
traction and beor was never wanting
if desired. So groat was tho success
of theso sales that a rush was made
for anything approaching good
building land all round the cities.
Prices wont up to au absurd value,
towns wore planned out on bare
farming land and syndicates wore
formed almost every minute of the
day to buy some block for cutting
up. Then tho turn camo and this is
whore tho banks came in. With tho
upward rush no ono could go wrong
and a man whoso namo was not ab
solutely bad had only to go to his
bank for assistance.
"For example: A friend of mine
bought a largo ostato for tho pur
poses of cutting up for .7000 or
Jt'8000. He paid 230 deposit, '500
to bo paid in ono month, balance in
three, six, twelve, eighteen and
twenty-four months. Ho lodged tho
conditions of sale with his banker as
security for part of tho second pay
ment, 200 of which the bank was
compelled to pay in order to pro
tect themselves, as thoy looked to
tho resale of tho place to recoup
other advances.
"Tho third paymout they had to
make entirely and tho fourth thoy
stopped tho laud was forfeited and
bank and customers lost tho profit
of flGOO, for whicli the proporty was
sold in throe or four months. Never
theless the banks, as a rule, backed
their clients up in this whole specu
lation, and therefore, as I . have al
ways said, tho banks are now suffer
ing, and vory largely through thoir
own folly. Nearly every Australian
bank has safes full of deeds and not
sufficient gold to moot emergencies.
Maiij' of the banks which have closed
thoir doors are sploudid institutions
and can pay every cent thoy owo,
but thoy have thoir grips full of
paper and not enough gold for im
mediate demands. The lesson will
do thorn good, but it is very incou
voniont lo most Australians and ab
solute ruin to many. As for myself,
I am all right thank goodness my
two banks aro still safe and I have
too much confidence to withdraw
sixpence."
1. Parkinson, another Australian,
told an interesting story of how ho
missed being at tho mercy of a
closed bank. Ho had been banking
for some time with tho Commercial
Banking Company of Sydney. Ono
morning ho paid a visit to that in
stitution and asked for his balance,
saying ho wished to withdraw it.
Tho clerk to whom ho had spokou
treated him in a vory brusque, dis
courteous manner, and, fooling some
what annoyed, Mr. Parkinson drew
out a check payable to tho Bank of
Now Soutli Wales. Both tho clerk
and tho paying toller in turn desired
to know why lie had not asked them
to prepare tho draft which thoy pro-
sumeu tuo urawor desirou. Tho re
ply was: "Wlion you aro prepared to
treat your customers with civility
you may got my business. In tho
meantime tho Bauk of Now South
Wales will give me tho draft." And
so it camo about, fortunately, that
when tho news arrivod tho other day
of tlio failure of tho Commercial
Banking Company ono draftholdor
could look back aud forgivo tho in
civility to which ho had boon sub
jected. Fifty cents is a small doctor bill,
but that is nil it will cost you to

INSURANCE MEN MEET.
Alarming Incroaso in Loboos by Fire
from Incondiariam.
Tho twenty-eovonth annual meet
ing of tho National Board of Under
writers was held at Now York on May
18. President D. W. 0. Skilton of the
Fhronix Firo Insuranco Company of
Hurtford, Conn., occupied the chair
and delivered tho annual address.
Tho president declared that, in view
of tho experiences of luBt year, ho was
convinced of tho necessity of an in
crease in tho avorago rate of insur
ance. The executive committco's report
viewed with concern tho vast increase
of tho fire loss in tho country in 1802.
It is estimated at .$151,510,090, an in
crease ovor 18'Jl, when tho fire loss
WitB unprecedented. Tho losses since
January, 1893, have gone on at tho
same rapid pace. In connection with
tho report the monibors of tho board
said that thoy feared incendiarism was
on tho increase, ami tho iiieon com
mittee moved that its powuis ho so
extended that it could increase oilers
of roward for tho arrest and convfc-
tion of incendiaries.
DIAMONDS ON SHOES.
An Interesting Fact Connoctod With
tho Brush and Blacking.
"Do you know that whon your
shoos glisten with a polish thoy aro
really covered with diamonds?" ask
ed a shoomakor tho other day of ono
of his patrons. "This is true," ho
continued, "aud I will show jou
why. Bono dust, which is tho prin
cipal ingredient of shoo-blacking, is
almost pure carbon. Tho diamond,
you know, is tho purest form of car
bon. Whon this paste has been smoar
od ovor your shoos the friction of the
polishing brush crystalizos tho black
ing and converts it into millions of in
fimtosimally small diamonds, and
every man with a shine on his shoos
may rovol in the knowledge that ho
wears a cluster of diamonds on his
foot. Philadelphia Record.

Tho Sparrow Hath Also Found There
a Nest.
English sparrows have disfigured
many of the pavilions and exhibits in
the Manufacturers' building at the
World's Fair. Countless thousands
of the birds have built their nests in
the huge rafters it hundred feet above
the heads of the visilois. Captain
Bonlield, chief of the secret service at
Jackson Park, conceived the staitling
idea of inoculating chippy birds with
chicken cholera, and his plan would
doubtless have been adopted had not
an eminent medical authority warned
him that the body of one sparrow des
troyed in this way might spread the
chicken cholera until all the hens in
Illinois would be carried oif by the
plague. Half the big heads at the
fair are trying to devise a means by
which the spairows may rafely be ex
terminated. But the little vandals
continue to make thenibclvcb unpopu
lar. Chamberlain's Cough Komody
