IMPORTANT CASE
Now Before the United States
Supreme Court.
OYSTERS FOR WASHINGTON.

The Bill introduced I'm the Honse by
Perry Of Connecticut to Establish n
Bureau Of Interstate Banks:
WASHINGTON CRY, Representative
Perry Of Connecticut has introduced in
the House bill to establish bureau Of
interstate banks. The bill authorizes a
bank TO deposit with the Treasurer of
the United States as security for circu-
lation "any interest-bearing bonds is
sued under due authority Of law by the
United States or any State of the United
States, or by any county, or by any mu-
nicipal corporation located within any
such State" 1t is provided that the
Comptroller shall pass upon the charac-
ter OF the bonds, and that they shall
meet certain prescribed conditions. A
bank having an authorized capital stock
of not exceeding $3.50, 900 shall deposit
bonds Of par value Of not less than one
fourth Of the stock, and larger banks
shall deposit not less than 10000. The
United states does not guarantee the
circulating notes as under the national
banking act, but holds the bonds as col
lateral security and is authorized to sell
them if the bank goes into liquidation
at what they will bring. The notes.
moreover, shall constitute a first and
paramount lien upon all the assets OF
the bank. The provisions for redemp-
ton require redemption in legal-tender
United States coin upon the presentation
of the notes, and also require q reserve
of 25 per cent Of lawful money of the
United States. A central redemption
agency is established in the Office of the
Comptroller of the Currency, and the
banks are required to keep there 5 per
cent of their outstanding circulation for
the redemption OF notes which may drift
too far from the locality where the bank
is established to be presented for redemp-
ton at its own counters. This redemp-
ton fund differs from that under the ex-
isting law by being required to be kept
in coin instead OF lawful money.

Hiring of Teachers by School Boards.

Hiring of Teachers by School Boards.
TAcoMA.-Judge Pritchard has ruled
that School Boards need not wait until
the annual elections in order to hire
teachers for the school year commencing
in September, but contracts made prior
to the annual elections were subject to
curtailment to the minimum term if the
electors so voted. This is the point con-
tended for by the teachers of the State,
who have been pushing the case. The
District Boards have also objected to
this curtailment of their power, and the
decision meets with general satisfaction
by both teachers and directors. The
State Superintendent in July last ruled
that contracts by the old board were
void, and this opinion was sustained by
the Attorney General. The teachers
through Mr.. Dewey of the Summer pub
lie school appealed the case to the Supe-
rior Court of Pierce county with the
above result. 1t will probably 60 to the
Supreme Court. All the teachers and
School Directors OF the State are watch
ing the case.

OYSTERS FOR WASHINGTON.

state Fish Commissioner Trying to Get
Eastern Oysters to Plant.
WASHINGTON CrrY.-James Crawford,
Wsshington's State Fish Commissioner,
is endeavoring to get supply OF East
ern oysters TO plant in the waters of his
State, and has just written again on the
subject to the United States Fish Com
missioner. When Colonel Mcdonald,
the United States Fish Commissioner,
was on visit to the Pacific Coast last
year he made an examination of Willapa
Harbor with view to establishing an
experimental station there to determine
whether the Eastern oyster would prop
agate in those waters. The information
which he obtained concerning the saline
character of the water, the native food
and other advantages were consid-
cred satisfactory, and he then decided to
send sufficient supply to make test
of transplanting and propagation. Fish
Commissioner Crawford now asks that
the promised supply be doubled; that
when the shipment is made to Willapa
Harbor as many more may be sent to
Olympia to be placed in Oyster Bay. Mr..
Crawford promises to see that competent
men take charge of them, and that all
suggestions and directions which Colonel
Mcdonald may make relative to their
proper treatment are carefully carried
out. Mr.. Crawford has also written to
Senator Squire and enlisted his aid in
the matter. The Senator believes both
shipments can be obtained without much
trouble. Commissioner Crawford has
also made application for loan to the
State of Washington of one of the large
government aquariums at the Midwin-
| ter Fair.

Cost Of Long distance Towing.

~ IS only few years ago that ship.
! ping men heard with wonder the story
| OF the first long tow of thousand miles,
How eagerly it was discussed. What
tame reading 1t makes now! For little
tug to drag a heavy load that distance
now is as easy as the journey of an 81
train from the Battery to Harlem.
Within the last few months oceangoing
tugs have lowed big craft that had come
to grief in the Spanish main all the way
TO this port for repairs. The hauling
operation became necessary because of
the absence of a suitable marine ssdoc-
tor" or repairing facilities at the place
where the vessels were damaged. Re-
pairs are expensive in the tropics, and
in number of cases a good round sum
was saved even after long tow to this
port.
The champion long distance tow per-
haps is now in progress. Two months
ago an immense steam tug left the Mer-
sey, bound to Rio Janeiro, to bring back
to England large iron bark that had
been seriously damaged in storm near
the equator. This tug has started back
WAN AoI CudIo6. anu IL Is u IOr6bOn6 con-
clusion that she will reach the Clyde
without any mishap
Owners decline to give any informa-
tion concerning the cost of long dis
lance tow. but one like that from Rio to
England must be enormous. Here is a
trip of at least five months, over dis
lance of 1000 miles. At the very least
1000 tons of bunker coal must be used.
There You have $1,000 at one slap. Pro-
visions will cost $1,000 more. That
makes $4,000. Put the wages Of the
crew at $1,000 more. That makes 3d.
COO. Then figure incidentals at 81 200,
and the landsman may understand what
an expense is attached to job of that
kind. A total of $4,000 spent before a
single penny is paid for repairs. These
figures are from the tugboat owners
standpoint and do not directly show the
cost Of the tow to the charterer. The
owner of the steam tug has to live like
other people, and his profit for the trip
will be all the way from $1,000 to 81, 900.
That swells the amount to $I7, 900 or
renew York Mail and Express.

A Large Gross In an English Church.

The largest cross In any church in this
country is the "Great Rood" which the
Duke of Newcastle presented to the
Church Of st. Adams, Holborn. 1t is an
enormous crucifix, the cross Of which is
over 25 feet in height, and hangs sus-
pended from the chancel arch. The cross
itself is colored dead olive green. and
the arms have terminals of flower-de-luce
and Tudor roses. The sacred figure is
painted and gilt, while on either side
stand presentments Of st. John the Di-
vine and the Virgin as .'the Mater Dolo-
rosa" The idea of the work has been
chiefly borrowed from the rood crosses

The Etiquette Of Giving Up Ones Seat.

A Partisan newspaper says that it shows
want of good breeding for lady to per-
nit gentleman to give her his seat in a
crowded public conveyance and adds:
Nothing can be more annoying for seated
travellers than this mutual exchange of so
called courtesies and congratulations which
goes on at their knees and threatens their
feet, perhaps more or less afflicted with
corns. Remain seated, gentlemen. Re
main seated" If the Frenchman who
wrote this had ever gone through the ex-
perience of having lady decline a seat he
offered, he might write another chapter
about the want of good breeding in refus-
ing well meant courtesies of strangers. The
New Jersey commuters who cross the fer
ries during the rush hours have solved the
difficulties of this whole perplexing mat
ter in thoroughly democratic way. When
o gentleman on crowded boat sees lady
approaching who he thinks would appreci-
ate seat, he waits till she is nearly oppo-
site to him, and then without demonstrar
ton of any sort he simply rises and goes
out on the deck. The lady is free to sit
down or stand up, as she prefers, and the
gentleman runs no risk of a snub.-New
