THE MAVERICK
NATIONAL BANK OF BOSTON oLoSSD By TIE
IXAMINlR.
No Fears That the Dsposibs Will Loose BY fhi'
Action-Ths Banks Business Trans
ftrred to Other Banks.

BosToN, November 2.-The doors OF
the Maverick bank bore two notices
this morning. One read: "Closed by
order of National Bank Examiner
Ever"
Immediately beneath was the follow
ing: "Notes due at this bank to-day
will be found ut the Second National
Bank"
Two policemen stood at the steps at
the Water and Congress streets entrance,
but had little to do as there was no eX-
citement and but few people seeking
entrance to the banking rooms. Mr..
Lewis Lombard, second vice president
and eastern manager OF the Lombard
Investment Co., says that the deposit Of
the company in the Maverick bank was
immaterial and that the concern would
not be affected by the suspension of the
bank except so far as to cause little
temporary Inconvenience in the matter
Of keeping accounts.
All customers who held checks on the
Maverick bank on return OF the same
would be given checks on other banks In
which the Lombard Company has de-
posted. Several such checks were
presented this morning and redeem ed.
The different national banks will imme-
diately call meeting of the directors
to ratify the vote of the clearing house
association. Arrangements will soon be
made that check against depositors in
the Maverick national bank still be hon
ored at some convenient bank where the
committee will make its headquarters.
The losses of the Maverick national
bank are estimated at upwards of 81
600, 900, which wipes out the reported
surplus and undivided profits Of one
million dollars, the capital of $500, 900
and all of the one hundred per cent. as
sessment that the shareholders may be
called upon to contribute.
But as nearly majority Of the bank
shares were owned by President
Potter, some of which he had pledged
with savings banks, ETC., it is doubtful
if the full assessment can be collected.
The depositors, however, should only
lose fraction of their deposits. The
irregularities OF the Maverick bank ex-
tend back over period of more than
two years. President Billings says that
when he was bank examiner ten years
ago the bank was sound.

Sensitive Foreign Noses.
London Telegraph

A cabman charged with furious drlv-
ing at Southwark has started the
curious theory that an Englishman Is
capable of bearing a stronger scent
than foreigner. In front of his CAB
was q van laden with fish refuse. From
this van proceeded an odor-the cab
man called it an ''aroma"-which two
foreigners inside his vehicle found quite
overpowering. The cabman conse-
ouently forged ahead, knocked police
man down, and was duly summoned.
AS to the nature of the AROMA" there
seem TO be no question.
The peccant cabman, with much dell
cacy of expression, merely described IT
as "thlck," aud added, ''They were for
eigners and could not stand it," This
hypothesis OF the greater anti-aromatlc
power possessed by Englishmen, COM
pared with aliens, is one that should be
examined by some comparative sociolo-
gist. IL did not prevent fine OF ten
shillingS and costs.

PRODUCE.

CHICAGO. October 2-On the whole the
dealing developed to-day in the wheat
marked was weaker and fuctuating,
due to various causes. The drouth
continues. although it is cloudy nearly all
over the winter wheat country, but lnol-
cations were generally for colder weather.
This, together with higher cables, ana a
report that the Russian Government mao
prohibit the exports OF all grain, except
wheat, had the effect OF holding the marker
pretty steady during the early part OF the

SToCKs-The closing of the doors Of the
Maverick National bank OF Boston this
morning was surprise to most people, but
il revealed the reason OF the selllng
of stocks for som etime past by
houses with Boston connections and pre-
cipitated the selling out OF many lines OF
stocks held in that centre. The activity
for the first half hour was something which
has not been seen since the late
boom eliminated and about half OF the
entire business of the day was
transacted during the first hour. The ex-
citement then died away and the dealings
for the remainder of the day were almost
featureless, with firm tone throughout.
As matter of course the losses were chief
" in the stocks in which Boston is most
largely interested and New England,
Atchison, st. Paul and Burlington were
the centres Of attraction Tor the
time the excitement lasted, but only in the
first two OF these, was the loss OF the open
ing of any Importance. The markets closed

think that this danger can be obviated

With regard to the claims of the
Northern Pacific to the mineral lands
of Northern Idaho, am in hopes that
this matter can be settled alnicably by
allowing them to select other lands in
lieu of them. This Is very important
question, as the 4O-mile limit contains
some of the most valuable mines in
Idaho. The railroad company has got
favorable decisions in Montana and
Dakota on this question, but l think
they will be overruled and the difficulty
settled on the basis indicated.

Hon. Willis Sweet, representative In
congress from this state, gave, in a re-
cent interview, these facts concerning
his ideas and line Of policy during the
coming year at the national capital:
'Terere are three very important
questions to the people of our state"
said he, ito which l shall naturally
give most of my attention during the
coming session. These ire the arid
land question, the Northern Pacific
railroads claim to the mineral lands
and the protection and encouragement
OF the silver and lead mining Industries.
The controversy with Major Powell,
about which know very little, was
over before l went to congress, US only
got there for the latter half of the last
session. My idea on this arid land
question, however, Is that the best dis
position that can be made Of these lands
Is for the federal government to cede
them to the states under proper restric-
tons. The states should be allowed to
borrow money on them for the purpose
Of reclamation, and the lands should
be granted to actual settlers only in
small tracts. The water right should
In every case go with the land. and
should be subject only to the control OF
the state. The great danger to be
avoided Is that they will get into the
