RISE IS NOIED IN
Bankers Attempting to Or
ganize $100,000,000
Gold Pool
New York, September 25.—In view of
the efforts of the bankers to organize a
$100,000,000 gold pool, primarily to facili
tate foreign exchange, today’s sharp rise
in cables and demand bills on London was
regarded as highly signiflcent.
Fables rose to $4.1«8Vfe and demand sold
UP to $4.97^. The advance was attributed
in some quarters to the belief that the
modified British moratorium effective
only in sections, might cover these forms
of remittance.
Announcement that arrangements have
been perfected under the auspices of the
stock exchange of dealings, at concessions
In the United States stocks, which in
cludes the curb, was accompanied l>y in
timation that that is preliminary to simi
lar steps in regularly listed securities.
Bond dealers reported an increase de
mand for the new New York city notes,
with a further advance in the three year
issue. Incidentally. Tennessee showed an
extension in this market of some of its
maturing obligations. .
Recent weather conditions in the mid
dle west contributed to two counter move
ments in that section. While farmers are
reporting an unusually large winter wheat
acreage, merchants complain of the back
wardness of trade because of belated de
cline in the temperature.
Local banks are likely to receive further
cash accessions this week, a gain of
$8,009,000 to $10,000,000 being foreshadowed
in the surface movement. Reduction of
loans also is expected. Bank clearings
continue to reflect abnormal conditions,
the largest decreases being shown at this
center.
EGYPTIAN LAWYER COMES
TO SEE CHILDREN’S COURT
interest in New York’s children's
roiirt brought Gossan Helder. a youiiR
lawyer of Cairo, Egypt, from England
In this city, says the New York Her
aid.
“One-fourth of the people of Egypt
have nothing at all. and education in
tne state schools costs for each pupil
ibout 5200." Mr. Helder said. “Of this
$100 must be paid in advance and $100
it the end of six months. The course
is complete in elementary education
ind covers several years, the mission
’s'v schools, of which there ore about
5T» in Egypt, are splendid and are free.
They are doing great work, but cannot
each more than a very small part of
the children of the poor, vviio are al
most countless. Consequently the prob
lem of handling children and other
ninors who break the laws is a serious
>ne. which is riot vet approaching solu
ion In my country. I was told on the
'ontiuent and in England that I should
‘nine to the United States and see uu,
iteration of the New Ygrk city and
>ther children's courts, because they
ir. the best in the world.
“Egyptians prefer American products
niih as your typewriters and other
finds of things in daily office or do
mestic use. but our people are afraid
>f this country. Our race is dark
ikinned and Egyptians who have come
tere have been ill-treated.’’

Tigers in Korek
Prom the Indianapolis News.
There is an opportunity for big game
liunters to find some sport In South
’’orea. Reports In the Japanese press
Tom Fusan • are that tigers are to be
ound near that port. The local genflar
nerie station organized hunting parties.
No beasts were killed, but the bolder
mes seem to have been frightened away
’or u time. Now the tigers have reup
'eared. Recently a tiger entered a farm
yard and, after killing a bull, carried its
carcass to a nearby pine forest. A great
many villagers pursued the beast and it
'led. leaving its prey In the forest. On
mother occasion a huge tiger invaded a
armyard and carried away a bull. The
leasts have eluded severul hunting par
ies and are growing bolder.

FALL TRADE BELOW
_
Bradstreet’s Says Failures
Are Numerous, But
Farmers Prosperous
New York, September 25.—Bradstreet‘9
will say tomorrow:
“It is evident that fall trade is lie
low normal; that industrial operations are
quiet; that hank clearings, with stock
markets closed, continue on the down
grade; that failures are numerous, and
that the general rule is to buy only for
pressing needs. Difficulty encountered In
getting ready money at reasonable rates,
checks buying in a myriad of lines. On
the other hand farmers in the surplus
wheat producing regions have prospered;
retail trade has been stimulated by cool
weather over a wide area. Commercial
paper shipments is a hopeful sign. Kx
port trade in cereals continues of heavy
volume, and it is certain that more «»r
less business has been done for Kuropean
account in blankets, saddlery, leather,
horses, horseshoes and munitions, and at
the same time the opening of certain cot
ton exchanges in the south for spot trans
actions affords a price-making basis for
cotton.”
Bank clearings for the week ending Sep
tember 24. according to Bradstreet’s, ag
gregated $2,281,288,000. a decrease of 20.3
per cent from the same week last year; *
business failures were 306, against 297 last
year; wheat exports, 6,868,039 bushels,
against 5,980.205 last year.
STREET NAMES IN
LONDON ARE A FI ZZLE
The knowledge of the London school,
in Brixton, is one of the most unusual
educational institutions in the world, says
a London special to the New York World.
It is here that taxi drivers are coached
for the severe examination that Scotland
Yard imposses in the interests of the
public. There are 33.000 streets in London
and the taxi driver is expected to have
a working knowledge of the whereabouts i
of most of them.
Mr. Blaydon. principal of the school,
asserted recently that "the modern taxi
man has to possess at least ten times
tlie knowledge of the old-fashioned horse
cab driver. Not more than half of those
who begin the course here have the pa
tience to finish it."
All sorts and conditions of men are
candidates. A few of their old occupa- *
tions as entered in the books of the
I school include footman, journalist, chem
ist, musical artist, army couch, optician,
musician, army lieutenant, timber mer
chant and publican. The best students,
according to statistics, and those who
pass Scotland Yard with the greatest
ease, are those who formerly filled the
comparatively humble position of car
men. The army coach who entered for
the course recently gave it up in despair.
Instruction by map and textbook indoors
is employed as well as motor excursions
into every corner of the* metropolis.
There is no limit to the number of times
a candidate may enter the examinations,
which are held weekly, and most candi
dates present themselves from 12 to 15
times. One man is known to have had
26. tries. His final parting with the ex- 1
aminer was quite pathethic.
A story illustrating the encyclopaedic
knowledge of the London taxi driver of
today hud to do with the joker accosting
a taxi driver at Charing Cross the other
day.
“Drive me to the Land of Promise,” he
said, us he entered the vehicle.
“Land of Promise? Yes. sir.” replied
the taxi driver.
The joker got into tin* car, wondering *
how the driver would extricate himself
from the position. Twenty minutes later
the man in tin* taxicab found that he
himself was the butt of his own joke to
the extent of half a crown, for at the
corner of a little thoroughfare leading
from Hoxton street to Shoreditch work
house the words on the name plute of
that street were, “Land of Promise."
Then he got into the taxi again and rode
l ack to Charing Cross with very high
respect for the liaedeker-like knowledge '
of the man in front.
<.irl Drives a Delivery Car
From the Cleveland News.
When Miss Kuth Mercer. 18-year-old
daughter of Mrs. G. VY. Mercer, a Boris!.
learned to drive her father’s big touring
car several years ago, she didn't realize
the knowledge thus gained was to be
turned to real dollars and cents later on.
Now Miss Mercer, at the age when
other girls are devoting their time ( > ,
Styles and fashions, parties and «»eau :.
is the only woman motor truck delivery
driver in Cleveland, if not in Ohio, and
has been the mainstay of her mother in
carrying on the florist business since her
father’s death.
Despite her mother’s objections. Miss
Mercer stepped into the breach last Jan
uary und all through the zero weather
manned the wheel of the delivery car.
“I like the work,” Miss Mercer said.
"It keeps me out* in the open and is riuch
better than working in an office all day
long, or being cooped up in a store." <
Miss Mercei cranks her own truck.
She has expert knowledge of the intrica
cies of a gasoline motor and knows how
to repair the engine if It breaks down.
Interrupted
From the Brooklyn Life.
Magistrate—Can’t this ease lie settled
out of court?
Mulligan—Sure, sure. That's 4’hat w*
were trying to do, your honor, when the
police interfered.
