For some he has been the stormy petrel of Canadian politics, and, rightly or wrongly, he has done his own thinking. Practical ability ——the wisdom that is able to chogse and manipulate the best meads to'a given ‘end—exacts respect, .even from an ‘opponent, and Mr. Tarte has forced his most acrimonious ad- versaries to recognize in. him.a foe- man worthy of their ripest strategy and keenest weapons. ‘ years A great record of.continuous ser- vice is that of James Shaw, who re- tired at the end of October from the post of superintendent of the north- ern division of the London & North- western railway: During nearly 40, years of service Mr..

Notices have been received by the shareholders of the War Eagle Min- ing company summoning them to the annual meeting at Wellington street east, Toronto, on Nov. 21, noon. ‘No business will be tran- sacted,” says the circular, ‘but the meeting will’ be adjourned until Wednesday, Feb. 21, 1900.” Tne cause of the ‘adjournment may be learned from a letter from G. B.'Kirby, the present manager, to the directors, which is’ as fol- lows: “fn case you desire a report from me for the annual. meeting it is necessary to explain that lam hard- ly yet in a position to make one. I gntered upon my duties as your manager. on. Aug. 1. Owing to the quantity of business requiring prompt attention, it. was arranged that for at-least a couple of months Mr. Hastings should continue to manage and direct the underground operations, You are familiar with the incessant troubles caused by the present machinery. These, with the planning of future improve- ments, the purchase of new equip- ment,’ the «r izatic of the ‘S' tive policy of the bank, this indicates an enormous expansion of the legit- imate business of the country dur- ing the past half year. The assets immediately available are placed at $36,524,138, as compared with $30,090,247 in 1898. The overdue debts are $17,000 less titan last year. The bank, as Mr. Clouston explained at the last annual meeting, does not make call loans in Cana- da, but the statement showing $27,- 060,937, an increase of over $600,- coo, due by agencies in foreign countries and Great Britain, does not show whether anything is loaned ‘on call in other countries. The market prices of the stock on Oc- tober 31 was 265 per cent, equal to $530 per.share, as compared with 246% per cent on the same date last year. FOR. TRADING.

Montreal, Monday.—The semi- annual statement of the Bank of Montreal has been issued. As the position of Canada’s biggest finan- cial institution is always’ regarded as an index of the character of the business of the whole country, it will be satisfactory to, know that _.the net earnings, $658,161, are the ‘ “largest on record. After deducting the regular half- yearly dividend of $600,000, paya- ble on December ist, the balance carried to profit and loss account amounts to $1,160, 954; against $98 1,328 00 October 31 last year, an increase of $179,626 in twelve months. Of this increase, $150,683 was earned in the six months end- ing April 30, and $25,043 for the six months ending October 31 last. The net earnings of the past gix * months show an increase of $29,- 043 over a corresponding period of 18g8, and an increase of $38,221 over a_ corresponding period of 1897, and this comparative increase is very gratifying wherf it is remem- bered that the winter months usual- ly show larger earnings than the summer ones. , of + The most significant item is that of current loans and discounts, which amounted ‘to $46, 198,958) as compared with $38,885,782 in 1898, an increase of $7,343:196- In view of the extremely conserva- .
