The New York Post hits wide of the mark in
its comments on the arrest of Lieutenant
Henry o. Flipper, Of the Tenth Cavalry. when
it says he is surrounded by army officers who
loathe him"
Not only Captain Nolan. who has repeatedly
spoken favorably OF him, but many other Off
GERS of the post have given Flipper a good
name. and have also aided him in securing a
high and honorable position in the service,
Several times he has served on courts-martial
with white officers. and at the time of his
arrest, or just before it, he was appointed
Judge Advocate Of such court. For months
he had been acting as Commissary and In that
capacity was brought intimately and con-
stantly into contact with white officers
And yet the Post, in addition to other
ISLANDERS, asserts that the officers 'sloathe'i
him. If Lieutenant Flipper ever made COM
plant OF any such treatment it failed to reach
the public ear. Onthe other hand. his friends
and relatives in this city, his old home, have
heard only the most favorable reports of q
kind and considerate treatment by his white
comrades in the Tenth Cavalry.

The Boom In ChIcagO,s Bank Clear
fnRa.

CHICAGO, September 3.-The bank clear
ings for the week were $50, 500, 600, which
is more than double the usual amount, and
is $35, ,000, 600 greater than that of any pre-
vious week il the history OF the city. The
greater part of the increase is due to the
gigantic operations Of the successful wheat
corner, which eliminated on August 31st,
aud the settlements made necessary thereby.
General business, however, shared in the
activity, and helped to swell this total,
which is all the more remarkable from
coming in a summer month.
