A special dispatch from Washington
states that 1.-THE comptroller of the cur
rency stated today that he had been in
formed that 1t would be impossible to
| reopen the Wichita National bank, and
as a result he is now looking for re-
ceiver. Quite number Of messages
were received today from creditors of
the bank, asking that Major W. n.
Ewing be made receiver. Major Ewing
has had charge Of the bank since it
closed its doors. 1t is understood that
Major Ewing is not anxious to take the
place and the impression prevails that
the comptroller may be inclined to car
~ out the plan to appoint Judge Leland
receiver, as well as receiver of the
State Na1onal at the same town. In
the meantime there are a number of
able-bodied Democrats in the Arkansas
valley and elsewhere who have indi-
Gated that they would like to be given
the appointment
When asked whether he would ac-
cept the position of permanent receiver
of the Wichita National Major Ewing
said that he did not know. He now
holds the position OF United States
bank examiner for Kansas and Okla
homa and he thought If the acceptance
of permanent receiver for the Wichita
National would necessitate his resigna-
ton as bank examiner he did not want
it. Major Ewing, however, stated that
he would leave last night for Washing
ton on other business in connection
with his Office and that he would know
more when he saw the comptroller of
the currency.
1t was known here that the deposit
tors expressed d desire that Major Ew-
ing he allowed to close up the affairs
Of the Wichita National, but the idea
of having Judge Leland act as receiver
while still receiver of theState Nation
al seems to have originated in Wash
ington rather than here.
Major Ewing was seen in his private
office in the Wichita National last
night and when asked in regard to the
reports from Washington, he said that
he did not know anything about it.
He, however, stated that a large num-
Der of the depositors requested him to
remain until the affairs of the bank
were wound up.
Major Ewing reluctantly admitted
that he was forced to give up his idea
of having the bank resume. He is,
however, of the opinion that with prop
can be made to pay nearly dollar for
dollar. Major Ewing has become great
ly interested in his work and of course
is anxious to vindicate his first public
statement that the bank would be able
to pay very nearly out in full.

A PECULIAR HABIT.
People Who Eat Clay and Thrive On q
Repulsive Food.

People Who Eat Clay and Thrive O thu
RePalsive Food
The natives of nearly all tropical ooun-
tries. and especially those Of the sea Is
lands, exhibit many vagafies Of taste In
the matter Of food. In many cases showing
an almost irresistible desire to fill their
stomachs with the various kinds Of earth,
generally ciays- On first thought one
would imagine that this clay eating habit
had been formed through desire to get
alkaline substances into the stomach In
order to neutralize the acids Of that organ,
but Investigations prove the contrary, the
clays which such people most crave being
unctuous and wholly devoid Of saline ele-
meuts.
Humboldt says that the female pottery
workers on the MAdalena river, in South
America, put large Jumps of clay into
their mouths quite frequently while shsp-
ing their earthenware vessels, and that
the clay eating instinct is so strong in the
natives of that region that infants of from
IL to 3 years of age are tied in the huts
to prevent them from overlooking their
stomachs with the unwholesome diet. On
the Orinoco, too, our great traveller passed
several days with a clay eating tribe of In
dians called the Otomacs. He thus de-
scribes the peculiar habit as noted In that
queer people:
The earth which the Otomacs eat is .
soft, yellowish white potter's clay, with .
small quantity Of oxide Of iron as a con-
stituent part.
They seek for IL on the banks Of the
Orinoco and Meta rivers and select IL with
great care, not considering all clays equal
ly agreeable to eat. A very intelligent
monk assured US that one Of them would
eat from three-quarters Of q pound to II
pounds Of this food in a single day. II
you inquire of an Otomac Indian concern
ing his winters provisions, he will point
to heap Of clay balls stored away In his
hut
As noted In the opening, we ind this
queer earth eating practice diffused
throughout the torrid zone and occasion
ally hear Of the practice in Sweden, Nor
way, Finland and in New Caledonia ~
well as in the southern states Of our own
country. Why the human system should
crave such odd food could probably be sci
entifically explained. However, il Is not
the purpose of this mote to seek remote
reasons for the existence Of the habit, but
simply to state that the practice, though
curious one, is we'll known
In the various quarters Of the globe.-St
Louis Republic.

HE TALKS FOR MISSOURI.
Good Result of Republican Victory In Old
Missouri.

Colonel s. S. Miller of Springfield, Mo-.
is in the coty spending a few days. He
says that there is a great deal of i'm
migration into southwest Missouri
considering the season of the year and
that it will become still greater when
the spring opens up. He says that the
result of the recent election did more
to induce immigration than any other
agency that could be employed. For
years the attention of eastern people
had been rivited on the resources of the
state, but its beastly Mossback pre-
dominating influence deferred them
from locating there. Now that it has
been demonstrated that Mossbackism
in Missouri is an elastic element, east
ern Drawn, brain and capital have
hopes of it's ultimate and permanent
overthrow-such hopes, at least, as
justify them in immigrating to the
state.

GOLD AND SILVER PRODUCTION.

E. Preston, estimates the worlds
production of gold for the calen-
dar year 1894 to have approx.
mated s,s7o,5Is fine ounces OF the
value of $3.50, 100, against
$5s, $4,000 for 1893. showing
an increase during the year of
22,674,Ooo. The greatest in.
creases in the production of gold
during the year were: Africa,
81. 400, 600; Australia, $6. o73, 600;
United States, So, 100000; Mexi.
co, 50. 1876, 900.
Mr.. Preston estimates the
worlds production of silver for
1894 at 1875, SlS. S3S fine ounces,
OF the coinage value of S214,3S1, :
900. The bullion value of the

Both the production of gold

any prior year in the worlds
history. Mr.. Preston is of the
opinion that his estimates of gold

a conservative estimate, and he
is of the opinion that were the
exact facts known they would
show an increase even greater

Mr.. MOSES w. DoNNALLY.
the West Virginia public printer,
and also editor OF the Charleston
Gaaette, is not pleased with the
TELEGRAM's answer to the Fair.
mont hder in which some state.
ments were made concerning the
alleged extravaganza of,the late
Republican Legislature. The
TELEGRAM said that the last
Legislature had cost the people
much less than any previous ses-
sion under Democratic rule in
many years. We still hold to the
same statement. Mr.. Donnally
does not deny our proposition
but seeks to take As days and
show that the Democrats in '93
spent less than was spent in '95
during the first 40 days, fixing
the amount at Sl.53 in favor of
90. So far. that sounds good but
as every body knows the Repnbli-
cans In 1896 finished their work
in As days, went home and spent
no additional money. Our Demo.
cratic friends, on the other hand,
stayed two weeks beyond the -
days and continued to spend
money. Mr., Donnally attempts
to create the impression thatthe
TELEGRAM's statements are
erroneous by saying
Senator Reed who makes
these false statements was a
member of the Senate OF 1895
and Chairman of the Committee
on Enrolled Bills, whose duty il
was to read and sign every bill
before IT could become a law, we
could not reflect OH his gigantic
intellect by presuming that he is
not familiar with the contents OF
the appropriation bill, providing
for their expense and can only
charltably conclude that he is
trying to make a good fight for "a
bad cause.
To prove this Mr.. Donnally
refers TO the TELEGRAM's state
ment that there was appropriat.
ed $3.50 for clerk of Senate in %
when it should be $3.50. AS our
public printer had failed TO get
the acts published, the TELEGRAM
was at a disadvantage in getting
information but if Mr.. Donnally or
any one else will take the trouble
to refer to the Senate journal,
(printed by Mr.. Donnally) and
find Senate Bill 146 (almost the
last bill in the book he will, on
see that the amount is
$3.50. If the bill was amended,
and appears different in the acts,
Mr. Donnally's figures are
probably correct Ii still leaves
the position of The TELEGRAM
triumphant. Count your extra
sessions and see what former
Legislatures have cost the peo-
pie.
