lions.
TOPEKA, Kan, Oct. l6.-Bank Com
missioner Breidenthal has made his re-
port to the governor, showing the con-
ditions OF the state and'private banks
Of Kansas, as shown by returns up to
the 18th day of July last. The eommis-
sioner AYERS the present condition ct
Kansas banks in the following para
graph:
At the present time, with a very few excep.
ttons, our banks made a remarkable showing
OF strength, and our bankers should be CON-
graduated for passing through the ordeal id
sqcn GOOD condition and We may all feel proud
OF the fact that Kansas Banks present q state-
tnert showing their condition to be second to
those Of no other state similarly situated, and;
while large number of the banks under the
control OF this department heve been forced to
suspend during the past year, the aggregate
amount OF deposits involved is small when
compared with the heavy failures in other
states, where frequently single failure in
wolves more actual loss than the entire
amount involved in all our Kansas failures,
many Of which will pay out every dollar they
6we.
Commissioner Breidenthal recon
mends that a provision be made to the
PrcScuo SIdIuGc requiring every Stdte
or private bank to incorporate under
the laws of the state, and to own a
building, furniture and fixtures costing
not to exceed one-third of the capital
stock. The report shows that there
are 1876 private banks in the state now.
In his recommendations Mr.. Breiden-
thai says:
I recommend that the assets Of private
bank be exempt from all claims other than the
liabilities Of the bank until all such liabilities
are discharged; that private bankers be re-
required to designate name for their bank:
that the title to all real estate owned by such
bank shall be kept in it's name; that provisions
be made for the conveyance of it's real estate:
that all obligations due to such bank shall be
made payable to it, and not to the owner or
owners; that all the property of the owner or
owners of such private bank shall be liable for
Its debts: that in the event of the appointment
of a receiver for such bank, such receivership
shall include all the property of the owner or
owners thereof; provided, that the assets of
the bank shall first be exhausted before dis
posing of any other property; that private
bankers be prob .bited from using any Of the
funds of the bank. either directly or Indirectly:
that no private banker be permitted to draw a
salary from such bank.

cute the orders and processes of the
United States court to prevent the OBJ
struction of the mails and generally to
enforce the faithful execution of the
laws"
| Gen. Miles then continues:
The conduct of the troop; in restoring order
and confidence where mob violsuce and reign
of terror existed in Chicago was marked by
great forbearance, fortitude and excellent dis
cipli1e. and their presence and action here
very greatly contributed to the maintenance OF
civil law, and in my opinion saFed this country
from serious rebellion. when one Had been
publicly declared to exist by one most rcspon-
sible for its existence.
The remainder of the report is very
formal and is confined to q recital of
the subsequent withdrawal of the
troops, their rnaneuvers in sham battle
and some complimentary remarks upon
their efficiency.
An appendix to the report is contrib
uted by Capt. J. NJ. Lee, Ninth infan
try, assistant inspector-general, in the
shape of brief history of the strike
movements at Chicago. The officer
states he hopes to be able to make
more comprehensive report later on,
covering as fully as possible the oper-
alton of the troops in this storm center
of violence, disorder and arson, which
at times threatened the overthrow of
all law and government"
In this short report Capt. Lee says:
Throughout all these pcrilous times, it is
gratifying to state the conduct. discipline and
efficiency of the troops was pronounced even
their presence overawed the turbulent and
lawless and won from every respectable, law
abiding citizen, whether laboringman or cap
italiSt-and every newspaper without exccp-
tion-the highest encomiums and warm express
sion of gratitude from all who were not in
sympathy with anarchy. arson and pillage.
Where all did well, it is but justice to say
that a large share of the difficult delicate and
dangerous duty fell to the lot of the Fifteenth
infantry-and the patience, energy and fear
leSsnesS with which that regiment performed
its onerouS task in addition to its splendid
record of which any regiment might feel proud.
This regiment, in the past two years, has been
subjected to undeservcd abuse by some of the
Chicago papers. but now that it has contrib
uted so largely to saving this great city from
arson and pillage-now that the regiment has
SO successfully passed through the crucial test
in presence of its whilom detractorS-itS high
merit seems to be properly recognized and too
much cannot be said in its praise.
