sent by her father to Kingston, about three
miles distant, to pay his month 'srent, and
had with her about 500 She arrived
safely at Kingston, but not being able TO
find the agent, started back home and has
not been seen since. The road she had TO
travel is lonely, and has been the scene OF
several murders and robberies. Mill Hol-
low and the surrounding country is in
habited by the worst characters in the
county. About half an hour after the girl
left Kingston, two unknown men, having
the appearance of Hungarians or Poland
ers, passed through the town and took the
road to Mill Hollow, nor were they seen
again. The distracted father, with a large
number of friends, secured the country
last evening, and with the daylight this
morning scores of persons were searching
for some trace of the lost child in every
direction for miles around. This afternoon
the police of the city were put to work, in
the vain hope that she might have come
here, but nothing could be learned of her
here. Her father has lost all hope of find
ing her alive, and has fallen into the views
generally held that the unfortunate girl
was robbed and then murdered by the
robbers to prevent their detection. To-
night several search expeditions are in the
woods with torches looking for her body,

NATIONAL BANKS.
Interesting Statistics from the Annual
Report of the Comptroller Of
the Currency.
The Number of Banks Organized Dur
ing the Year, Their Circulation
Snd Resources.

WASHINGTON, November 23.-The sec
ond chapter of Comptroller KnoX's report
shows that 262 national banks were organ
lied during the year ended November lst,
the largest number organized during any
year since 1865. OF these, l32 were in
Western States, forty in the Middle States,
forty-six in the Southern States, eleven in
the Pacific States, twenty-siX in the Terri
tories, and only seven in the Eastern
States. The number of national banks in
operation November 1st, 1922, the largest
number in operation at any one time. Re-
sources of 250l national banks October 2,
1888, s., 1872, 100000. Since the last report
Illinois has advanced from the sixth to
capital, Kentucky has displaced
New Jersey, and Minnesota is now
the fourteenth State taking the place
OF Vermont, and displaeing Iowa and
New Hampshire. Virginia is supee-
s.e,led by Wisconsin,, Texas and Cali
fornia. IN the next two years the charters
of 976 banks expire, having capital OF
50, 750, ,04S0 000 and circulation OF $780,
$50, 600. Thesaverage rate of interest now
paid by the United States on bonds de-
posted as security for circulating notes is
about three and one-half per cent. on par
value, but equal to three-nineteenths per
cent. on the current market value. More
han halfthe bonds now helds by national
banks are three per cents, and are all
likely to be called within the next three
years. Those lower numbers which, it is
safe to estimate, will not be called
for the next two years, cannot
be purchased for preHium of much less
than two per cent, and at that price there
will be loss upon the circulation based
on this class OF bonds if redeemed within
three years. Total amount OF bonds held
by national, State and savings banks No
vember 1st, 1921, DDS, ,259, or nearly half
the interest-bearing debt of the country.
The Comptroller says the section OF the
Revised Statutes whichsplaces restrictions
upon loans should be so amended as to
exclude from the limitation mentioned
legitimate loans on warehouse receipts,
and some other classes of collateral Sc
curities, as well as loans on United States
bonds -

OuR guests from Kansas City, Spring
field and other points along the line of
the Kansas City, Springfield and Mem
phis railroad left for their homes yester-
day, delighted with their visit and piedg-
ing the most lively and unaffected friend
ship for Memphis and her people. They
one and all declared themselves sur
prised by the very attractive ap-
pearance of the city, and espe-
cially by the extent of our trade,
the life and hustle of our streets and the
push and enterprise of our merchants.
They could only compare it with Kansas
City, the spirit and energy OF whose
business men, capitalists and mechanics
has passed into proyerb. Their recep-
ton here, they said, exceeded in cor
diality anything they had pictured for
themselves, and each carried away sense
OF personal pleasure mat could not be de-
scribed. For the gentlemen of the several
committees with whom they were brought
in immediate contact they entertained and
would always cherish the kindest and most
friendly feeling, and they pledged them
selves not in mere holiday fashion, but in
an earnest, manly way to be the friends of
Memphis and do all they can 60 promote
brisk ana lively and profitable trade be
tween the extremes, agd all along the line
of the Kansas City, Springfield and Mem
phis railroad. And so do the people Of
Memphis.

In doing this they were limited as to the

wise representative men. From what our
guests said yesterday morning as they
were taking their leave preparatory TO
their return to their homes we think i is
only reasonable 10 conclude that they sue

were especially well pleased with their
brief sojOurn and treatment, as viii be
seen from their resolutions printed else
where. As for the railroad people, so far
as the APPEAL is able to learn, they have
been actuated in all that they did as to
the celebration by the most generous de-
sire to be liberal and deal fairly by all the
communities for which they expect to do
business. Besides this Gen. Nettleton is
too practical and sensible a man 10 permit

of selecting an umpire, but after short

After the election of the umpire, the

IN some things the people of New York,

remainder in hand will about suffice to
finish the concrete roads, leaving but a

Fo.eisnIuvsstmen,s Of England.

Sir John Lubbock, member of Parlia-
ment, at the opening dinner of the Bristol
tEngland) University College Club, pro-
posed the toast of the evening, and in do
ing so dwelt upon the present system of
education and its results. He pointed out
the Importance of a knowledge of modern
languages and of science, which, while not
undertaking the classics, ought TO have a
fair share of time and attention. Perhaps
there never was country, he said, for the
prosperity of which the knowledge of
modern languages and Of science was n.s,,ooTre
important. The foreign investments of
England bring in yearly $3.50, ,OOO, 600. The
management of these properties necessi-
tated a knowledge of the languages of the
countries in which they were carried on.
Many promising concern has been
brought to ruin because it had been i'm
possible to find properly qualified English
men and the affairs had heen intrusted to
foreigners, of whose character and ante
cedents it was impossible to ascertain
much. This will hold good of American
investments in Mexico. Those only have
been successful that are managed by men
who speak the Spanish language.

HICKMAN, KY, November 23.-This
community has been thrown into intense
excitement by the discovery. of a terrible
crime. Hillsman King and his wife, an
aged and respected couple living near
here, were found murdered in their
house. Arthur King, their son,
visited the home of his parents
this morning, when he was horri-
fed to find his mother lying dead
in pool of blood. The young man at
once gave the alarm, and large crowd
soon gathered. AS Mr.. King was nowhere
to be seen, search was instituted, when his
lifeless body was discovered in the barn,
covered with shucks and horribly mutt
lated by rats. Although there is no clew
to the murderer, German peddler, who
stopped at the house, is suspected OF the
crime Upon investigation, it was found
that $1,000 had been stolen, which was un-
doubtedly the motive for the terrible deed.
