ENGLISH BANK SEEKS TO
DRAW ON FOREIGN SUPPLIES
By ABsociattd Press.
LONDON, Nov. 7. -The directors of the
Bank of England this morning put up
the minimum discount rate from 6 to 7
per cent. The only thing which would
have averted this rate would have been
assurances from responsible quarters in
New York that the situation there which,
it is recognized, is due to the exceptional
demands upon capital due to the great
commercial activity In America, is suf
ficiently well in hand to warrant the ex
pectation that there would be an early
cessation of the gold drain on this mar
ket. In the absence of such an assurance
the Bank of England utilized the only
weapon at hand to protect Its reserves.
It is realized, however, that even this
high rate may not prevent shipments of
gold to. New York, but It is hoped that
it may attract the metal from abroad in
sufficient quantities to reßtore the equil
ibrium.
The 'step is doubly necessary, as the
bank must nurse its supplies just at pres
ent for the autunvo country cash re
quiremeifts as well as the usual Egyptian
demands, and there is a possibility of
demands, for gold from Argentina.
The local business community Ib bound
to feel the pinch, and the financiers an
ticipate the drastic rate will cause an
even greater squeeze in Germany with a
consequent increase in the discount rate
of the Imperial bank and selling orders
from Berlin.
The announcement of the increase of
the Bank of England's rate by a full
point had a strong effect on the stock
exchange here. Consols, which opened
3t16 higher owing to the settling of the
railway dispute, fell half a point. Home
railroads started one to four points
dearer, but lost most of the advance with
in a few minutes. American railroads
had a similar action. The opening prices
ruled around parity, but h drop of a
point followed Immediately after the raise
of the bank rate, anri selling brought
quotations at noon down three points
lower than yesterday.
It was not until the bank statement
was issued that the bnnk fully realized
how heavy had been the drain on the
gold reserve. The figures showed the
week's decrease to he £3.1 U5, 807. the total
reserve being £17,(5!M,7!15. against £20,833,
(SO2 last week and £19.70r,.3f18 at this time
last year. There were Inquiries lr the
market this morning for another £1,250,
0 in gold fw America.
Bullion amounting to £1,210,000 was
taken into the Bank or England today
and £737.000 was withdrawn for shipment
to the United States.

Radical Changes
By Assorfntod Press.
BATTUS CKEKK. Mich.. Nov. 7.-The
National Purity congress that convened
here October 31 closed lasUnlght. and an
nouncement was made that on Friday a
voters' club woulil be organized In thi*
city to make a purity campaign along
the lines brought out by the congress.
The closing sessions were marked by
addresses by L. L. Pickett of Louisville,
recently a candidate for governor of
Kentucky, and Bolton Hall of New York.
Mr. Pi<'Uf.H ndvncateil a rational prohibi
tion law and predicted that the wave of
prohibition that lias iwept over the south
would soon reach the north as well.
He attributed much of the social evil
to low wages, as small incomes prevent
ed young men from undertaking the re
sponsibility of marriage.
"If they were content to exist on a
mere living wage they would drag down
with them our standard of living." he
said. He attributed the noted purity of
Irish women to the prevalence of early
marriages in Ireland.
Mr. Hall's plan for eradicating the so
cial evil was by a "return to nature."
With plenty of land available, for those
who can use it. he said, business Is good
and wages are high; but speculation
and restriction lessen the opportunities
for getting things and using them and
then como hard times, low wages and
fewer marriages.
He advocated a radical altering of the
general conditions of living.

Mrs. Emma Shively nnd Mr.. Belle Bcatty, T»in Sisters, 7» Years Old
"I am in my 73d year and preserve my health and keep my
strength up by using Duffy's P ure Malt Whiskey. Have been using
it for several years. As a tonic for old age I consider it without an
equal."— MßS. EMMA SHIVELY, Big Clifty, Ky., Feb; 28th, 1907.
"Before I began the use of your Duffy's Malt Whiskey last May
I was so run down and nervous I could not walk a square ; after tak-
ing several bottles I became strong and felt better than I did for
years, so I have been using it ever since, and I now seldom ever have
an ache or a pain. I am 73 years old."— BELLE BEATTY,
1731 15th St., Louisville, Ky.
Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey
is an absolutely pure distillation of malted grain ; great care being
used to have every kernel thoroughly malted, thus destroying the
germ and producing a predigested liquid food in the form of a malt
essence, which is the most effective tonic stimulant and invigorator
known to science; softened by warmth and moisture its palatability
and freedom from injurious substances renders it so that it can be
retained by the most sensitive stomach.
If you wish to keep young, strong and vigorous and have on
your cheeks the glow of perfect health, take Duffy's Pure Malt
Whiskey regularly, according to directions. It is dangerous to fill
your system with drugs. They poison the body and depress the
heart, while Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey tones and strengthens the
heart action and purifies the entire system. It is recognized as a
medicine everywhere. Duffy's Pure Malt Whjskey has been analyzed
and tested by chemists for the past fifty years, and has always been
found absolutely pure and to contain great medicinal properties.
