On the scales Mr.. Bissell ia undoubt-
eddy the greatest postmaster.general the
country ever had. He is considerably
over six feet perpendicular, and his hori-
zontal measurements have 80 far been
withheld from the public. Unfortun-
ately for him he found on his arrival at
the postoffice department that he not
only filed the chair of his predecessor
but considerably overlooked it; in fact,
the Office chair occupied by Mr.. Wana-
maker, although of the ordinary size,
was found 80 inconvenlently small for
Mr.. Bissell that he Immediately secured
requisition for a new chair to be built
for him according to specifications fur
nished by him. The new piece Of Office
furniture is made of heavy quartered oak, ,
thirty inches across the seat, supported
on straight legs by inches, weigh
ing about as much as the heavy mahog-
any desk before him. 1t is not the sort
Of chair one would twirl carelessly about
while engaged in idle conversation, and
will not be in any danger from the petty
thieves Of the departments who carry
away towels and soap and such like ar
ticles. 1t will, however, be a great COM
fort for Mr.. Biseell, who, up to the pres
ent time, has preferred standing to con-
6niDg himself to the narrow bounds OF
the chair of his predecessor.

THE ALBANY BANK FAILURE.

Dissipation on the Part of Ono Of the
Principal Onicers Of the Bank Cause.
A Salem banker who knows the con-
national bank, says it had capital Of
5000 surplus Of $4,000, and un-
divided profits of about $1,000. This is
1922 900. Then three-fourths of the stock.
holders are good for 100 per cent. ad-
ditional to their holdings of stock, for
which the national banking laws make
them liable, or 900, giving to deposit
tors surplus of $l97 900 over and
above the loans, to pay deposits. The
loan will more than Offset the deposits,
and they are mostly good. There will
probably b. q loss of SAC, 900 to $50, 600
bad paper, and the bank will pay all
depositors in full and stockholders so to
70 per cent. Its business will be wound
up.
The cause of the embarrassment was
the intemperance and recklessness OF
one of it's principal officers, impairing
confidence, causing Withdrawals of de-
posits, bad judgment in not providing in
advance for the stringency good bankers
could see coming; and bad loans, mostly
to persons intimately connected with the
bank. J. L. Cowan, who had charge Of
the suspended bank, will not pay more
than so cent. Of his obligations.
A Salem bank offered to stand in with
a Portland bank in furnishing the mon ey
to tide the suspended Linn County bank
over the stringency, but the Portland
bank refused; therefore the doors were
closed, and its business will be wound
up.

by William Steinmetx, was burned to the
ground. The wharf was only partially
burned. The steamer Garfield getting up
steam and playing on the FIRE WAS all that
saved the wharf.
The fire had died out and people were
going to their homes when there was a
cry OF fire" in another part of town.
In an instant blaze shot up
from the rear of Hadley's saloon and
shortly the whole building was in flames.
The Allen house went next, then the
barber shop, 6. o. Nolan's office, Peck

house, W. 9. Kings house and on the
other side the Occidental hotel.

Oil barrel in Hsdley's saloon had been

Brick buildings will be commenced at
once and merchants have telegraphed for
large stocks of goods. The total loss will
probably reach $75, 900.

them. State Fruit Inspector Jesse re-
ports that In the nurseries of this vicin-
ity that he has examined there is not a
fruit pest any kind.
The total value of exports of merchsn-
disc from the United States during the
twelve months ending May 81, 1898 was
$S4S, 1878, S45, q decrease of $l74 6l0, 200
over the preceding period. The value Of
Imports during the same period was
1886, 9Ol ,2S7, an increase OF sos, O53, 1853.
During the same period the exports of
gold amounted to 1923, 1894 ,453, and the
imports 20,e5S, 725. The exports of
silver amounted to $40, l36,57S and the
imports to $23, 764, 542.
The showing made by the suspended
bang OF Ben s. Snipes & Co., of Ellens-

resume business at an early date. The
resources are $27S, 19l, and the liabilities
$2l0,7S4 The excess of resources above
liabilities is $67 ,401. In addition, q state
