The Wilmington Burglary.

The robbery of Merchant Wares store last
week Thursday night proves to have been
mole extensive than was at first reported
though the exaggerated accounts of the
savings bank having been cracked and other
robberes had M foundation. Wares loss Is
probably about $500 besides lot of valuable
papers. One of the railroad contractors had
some valuabes In the safe which was blown
open, but these, 1t Is thought, can be re.
placed, so that his loss will be small. A
couple of suspicious characters were arrested
in Bennington Friday night, who are known
to have been In Wilmington before the rob.
berry. Sheriff Kidder and Mr.. Ware went
over and interviewed them, but none of the
stolen property could be found or identified.

CONGRESSMAN M. ID. HARTER of Ohio, the
manufacturer who has done such effective
work for tariff reform. contributes to the
Forum a well.studied plan for permanent
bank system to take the place of the one
which is so near its end because of the pay.
ment of the national debt. He would con.
tinue the moDey-issuing pO wer of the banks
and would base the notes On deposits of state,
county. city and railroad gold bonds under
strict limitations Bonds to be acceptable
must have been listed on some leading stock
exchange for five years prior to deposit
against circulation, and never have been In
default or sold Delow par within these five
years or below 105 within three years. For
safety and to discourage the increase of debts,
no state bond representing per capita debt
of over ~, or county bond representing a
debt Of over 81, or city bond representing a
debt of over IS per capita shall be accepted.
Railroad bonds must all be secured by mort
gage and no bank shall have more than 20 per
cent. of Its bond deposits In securities of any
one issuer. When a bond on deposit sells
below 105 the controller of the currency shall
order 1t replaced by more valuable bond
and when railroad ceases to pay dividends
on It's stock Its bonds on deposit must also be
re placed. Penalties against the Issuing of
false statements of earnings and condition of
the property by railroad managers should be
provided. Mr.. Harter would also revive
state bank issues by rcpealing the preseut 10
per cent. tax on circulation, but all state is-
sues must be secured exactly as the national
bank issues, and be under control of the state.
nd finally state and national banks shall pay
. tax OF two per cent. on their circulation.
shall be suffered to issue up to 80 per cent. OF
the par value of bonds deposited, and shall
redeem their notes 10 legal tender money of
the United States. Thus when money rules
below two per cent. on call, banks would be
moved to contract their Issues.
