Pillt6uTDh TimtI
The citiSsns OF Wheeling are moving
snerGetically for the development Of the
State. There are not many States that
possess so many elements Of growth and
prosperity as West Virginia. There are
few II any that will bear booming better,
or that need 1t more. The mineral wealth
of the State is varied and great. Ite
wealth in ioestry is hardly lees. A good
part OF tho s!ste is unbroken by settle
ment and is yet to be developed. II has
navigablo airaams and varied climate.
West Virginia resembles in its main
characteristics Western Pennsylvania, and,
like this State, is capable OF supporting q
large population.

Nav YORK, January lU.-The retire
ment OF q. ID. Baldwin from the pre7i-
drucy Of the Fourth National Bank oc-
r.,sious some surprise. This is the hank
that cashed Jay Gould's check for 81
UnO. 900, said to be the largest ever cashed
in this country. Comptroller Trenholm,
ia an interview with II'OrH reporter last
night, said.
"It is q matter OF public notOriety that
at the recent examination IN December the
reserve fund of the Fourth National was
found 10 be below the minimum allowed
hy law. This fact WAS widely published

rl~iuued no remark, for ! often iiud

same condition The state OF affairs is
analogous 10 that OF a thoroughly solvent
dcpOsitor who happens to Oyerdraw his
account The banks are notified that the
reserve must he made good within thirty
dnys, and the money IL usually in the
vault in a much shorter time. THIS bank
Is one ct the most solid institutions IN the
metropolis, and | was 80 confident that the
minimum reserve would be at once re-
that no notice was served The
reserve WAS made good almost immediate
