ASSETS SHRUNK.
LIMERICK National Bank Or
dered to Strengthen Assets
Either BY Reducing Stock or levying
An Assessment-Cause Depression.

The board OF directors and Cashier
John w. Angel OF the Lime
rock National Bank received noti-
fication today from the Comptrol-
ler OF the Currency at Washington
that their capital has been impaired and
calling upon them to either make an
assessment upon their stockholders or re-
duce their capital stock.
This bank was incorporated in Jaunary,
1923, and was reorganized as National
bank June 80, 1865. Its capital stock is
100000. James 5. Phettepiace is
president, John w. Angel, cashier,
and board of directors Thomas J. Hill,
James s. Phetteplace, John w. Angel,
Fred b. Evans, James {. Goff, John b.
Lewis and Augustus f. Lamb. Its
tockholders are principally Providence
people. The par value OF the stock IL
$50, but during the past
10 years the average price
has been in the neighborhood OF $40
six months ago the Comptroller
of the Treasury ordered the banks
to stop paying dividends and
the June dividend was passed accord
ingly. In the Providence Stock Exchange
today the stock was quoted at VA, but
buying orders were Immediately can
| celled.
The directors have three months in which
they can restore the bank to the condition
OF soundness required by the comp
troller. Failure to do this vii
probably result in the winding up of th
affairs OF the bank by order of Comptrolle
Eckels.
Cashier Angel says that the estimate o
the present market value OF their secu
rites is the reason for the ste
taken,I the securities having shrunk il
common with the general list of securitie
during the past Is months, thus accountin
for the shrinkage in their assets requrin
further strengthening in order to NEE
the demands of the comptroller.
1t is generally thought that IL an as
sessment is made upon the stockholder
that it will be heavy one.

nation within 30 days.
Orders have gone forth from polio
headquarters for keepers of gambling
houses and places of ill-famc
to close their doors. The order
was promulgated yesterday, the police
working very quietly. Last night
several OF the smaller places were
closed, but certain ones, which
are reported to have a pull, were open as
usual, and the proprietors laughed at tho
idea OF a raid. Whether or not Mayor

to show acts OF favoritism is question
which many would like to see decided.

LAST EDITION
CORMAN TALKS.
Senate Will Give Conference
Committee 48 Hours.
Then Free Sugar Will be the Order
and no Bounty to Louisiana.


WASHINGTON, Aug. 7.--Senator German
was quoted this morning as expressing
himself very empLatically on the situa-
tion as follows:
"The House conferrees refuse to do
anything. They will not agree nor Will
they consent to report disagreement.
They will have just As hours longer
in which to make up their minds
10 something. IL at the end Of that time
they have not consented to an agreement
or disagreement the senate will cut the
Gordian knot. We will strike the sugar
schedule out OF the bill and substitute
free sugar.
sLouisiana senators have made COM
bination with the Populists to demand
the bounty for this year, amounting to
s6,OO0,OOO. We will not give it," said SEN
ator German, "We will not give 1t. Be-
fore we will be driven to that we will
have free sugar. That would deprive the
treasury of go, ,000, 900 of revenue annually
and be hardship financially. But that
canno. be avoided unless men come to
reasonable action.
"The President wants sugar taxed, sc
do we; but we cannot give up everything
else for tax on sugar"

BRIT ANNA OUT.
Too Anxious to Start She
Was Disqualified.
The vigiIant Not Permitted to Com
pete for Her Majesty's Cup Today.


CowEs, Isle of Wight, Aug Tin the
race for Her Majesty's Cup, in the Royal
Yacht Squadron regatta today, for all
yachts belonging to the squad
ron, Old Queens course, revised, the
Prince of Wales cutter, Britannia; En-
peror Williams cutter. Meteor (formerly
the Thistle); Admiral Montague's 40 ratcr
cutter, Carins; Lord Dunraven's e.
rater, L'Esperance; w. r. Cookson's
O-rater Castsnet and the 61-rater Mohawk
started at 10 a. m.
The Britannia crossed the line before
the gun was fired and was therefore dis
qualified.
At the start the Carina led, followed by
the Meteor. The weather was excellent.
There was some disappointment at the
disqualification Of the Britannia at the
start, but there was more disap-
pointment at the fact that the Vigi-
liant, not being member OF the Royal
Yacht squadron, is unable to compete for
the Queens Cup. There is no doubt that,
had she started, the cup would have
been hers, barring accidents, for her
only dangerous rival, the Britannia,
was barred from competing owing to the
excessive zeal of Captain Carter in trying
| TO reac h over the line ahead of the other
racers.
However. both the Vigilant and Britain
MIA are entered for tomorrow's racing
when they will compete for the Royal
Yacht Squadron prize of a10o fol
all yachts exceeding Al rating
belon ging to any recognized yacht club
The race tomorrow will be over th'
Queens course, which has alread,
proved to be eminently suited to th'
American yacht.
1t is presumed that the two yachts viii
spend the day in repairing the damag
which they are believed to have sus
tanned through scraping the shor
in the luffing match which took plac
off vintor yesterday. The Vigilant will
probably be docked during the day and
Is expected that the Britannia Will folio,

ascertained that a portion of tn
