tional bank OF New York is Secretary Sher-
mans favorite institution. 1t has a capital of
$4,000, and the official report shows that 1t

counties of the State. unanimously passed
resolution yesterday recommending that
enough copies of the full statistical forth

Of the State, and that copy be sent to each
of the offices of the county clerk, auditor,
treasurer and recorder, to be kept in these

unless the general public can have access to
them. This action seems wise and timely.
