The Number Now in Oper ation-Certain
Changes Suggested.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.-The second ohapter of
Comptroller Knox's report elbows thar 1872 ma
tional banks were organized during the year
ending Nov. l, the largest number organized
during any year since 1865. OF these, 1872 were
in the Western States forty in the Middle States,
forty-six in the Southern States, eleven in the
Pacific States, twenty-six in the Territories and
only seven in the Eastern States. The number
of national banks in operation Nov. was 1922,
the largest number in operation at any one time.
The resources of 2,501 national banks on Oct 9,
1883, were 80, 372, 700, 600 Since the last report
Illinois has advanced from sixth to fifth place in
placed New Jersey, and Minnesota is
now the fourteenth State, taking
the place of Vermont and displacing
Iowa and New Hampshire; Virginia is super
seeded by Wisconsin,, Texas and California. In
the next two years the charters of 976 banks
expire, having a capital Of $275,548,00O, and
circulation of Sl85,335,000 The average rate
of interest now paid by the United States on
bonds deposited security for circulating notes
is about Big per cent on the par value, but equal
to $40 per cent. only of their current market
valne More than half the bonds now held by
national banks are 3per-cents, and all are likely
to be called within the next three years. Those
of lower numbers which it is safe to estimate
will not be called within the next two years,
cannot be purchased for premium of
much less than 2 per cent, and at that
price. there will be loss upon the circulation
based ON this class of bonds If redeemed within
three years, The total amount of bonds held by
national, State and savings banks, on Nov. L,
was $621,229, 259, or nearly half the interest
bearing deDt of the country.
The Comptroller says the section of the revised
statutes which places restrictions upon loans
should be so amended as to exclude from the
limitation men TONED legitimate loans upon pro
duce or warehouse receipts, and such other
classes of collateral security as well as loans
upon United States bonds.

New York Graphic.
Probably the most comical feature of Mary
Anderson's London career is that which pre-
sents her as tine protese of Hamilton Griffin
and George w. Smalley. The one presented
her to the Prince of Wales and the other
was requested ~ him to convey to the Amer
lean public the pleasing intelligence that the
Prince approved of her. If Edward Albert
is determined to be found in this sort of
American society abroad, what can he posi-
bly, expect from American society if he
should venture to drop in on US again?
Really, dear boy, you must be more particu-
lar as to your associates.

vanced which tends to exculpate Carpenter. 1t
is that Fora was murdered for the money that
was paid her by Carpenter and was killed by a
Decatur man, in completely with Mrs. Carpen-
ter, of that place, notorious woman, who was a
prominent witness for the prosecution. A re-
liable young man of Decatur claims that when
Fora left here for Lincoln on her fatal journey,
she was accompanied by another girl. who got
off the train at Mount Pulaski, where Decatur
man got on. Fora got off at Lincoln on the re-
turn trip from Peoria, where this informant had
gone. He says Fora got on at $50, about an hour
after her last appearance in Lincoln. She was
accompanied by the same man who got on at
Mt. Pulaski, and at that place bo III got off, The
new theory is that she was murdered by her COM
panion ana that, either alive or dead, she was
taken in buggy from Mt. Pulaski TO the spot
where found with her throat cut.
