ST. LOUIS. Mo-, May 14.-Satisfac-
tory progress is being made by the con-
tractors ON the immense auditorium
building designed for the use of the Re-
publican national convention. Thir-
teen thousand six hundred seats ara
provided for, but owing to it's architec-
tural construction and the steep pitch
or the balconies a good view of the
speakers stand is hal from all parts of
the structure. Sergeant-at-Arms T. E.
Byrnes and his assistant, Max Pracht.

tion of the building today, every pillar,
brace and Fastening was looked over.
the entrances and exits measured, and
everything was found to be entirely
satisfactory. Such disposition of door
keepers is made that without undue
haste every ticket can be examined and
every ticket-holder seated insid of ten
minutes.
The building is to be completed with
In ten days, and it is proposed to give an
entertainment Of a dedicatory charac-
ter. at which more persons will be pres
ent than will be at the convention, thus
subjecting the building to a practical
working test.
The press committee Of the Business
Mems league held a conference this
morning and afternoon with Sergeant
alarms Byrne. with reference to the
distribution of press tickets for the con-
liOii' IL W as dLScu lIldt the commit
tee should take charge of all applica-
ttons for seats, including those already
received by the sergeant at arms. All
applications will be tabulated, and the
most equitable distribution possible OF
the 41S seats will be made by the com
mittee and by them submitted to Mr..
Byrnes for his approval. Secretary
James Cox was ordered to give notice
that all papers not having applied to
either the sergeant alarms or Chair
man Houser of the press committee
must make application Immediately to
the latter. In order to facilitate the To-
cation of seats and the distribution of
tickets, it was decided to receive no ap-
plications for seats after June 1st.
A subcommittee was appointed to
confer with the architect and the chair
man of the hall committee as to the de-
tails of arrangements, and steps were
also taken toward providing suitable
entertainment for the visiting news
paper men. A number of applications
have been received from Washington
and New York correspondents of
newspapers for tickets. 1t was resolved
that all applications for tickets from
newspaper correspondents in Washing
ton or New oYrk must be made through
the papers Tiny represent, and not for
themselves individuality.

missioners, requests the board to procure
from the city banks. both saving and
commercial, statements of their assets
and liabilities at noon on the first Mon
day of March last. Since the commits
sioners have already sent out notices to
all the banks in the state instructing
on March Goth, there was some doubt at
first as to what the governor wanted and
what were his reasons for making such
request. but 1t was all made clear when
the commissioners reflected that the
banks are required under the law to file
statements with the assessors showing
their condition at precisely the time
indicated in Gov. Budd's request and that
such statements as the governor wants
could and probably would be used as a
basis of comparison in the matter of
valuation placed on property, real and
personal. and on credits of all taxable
kinds. In other words the commits
sioners saw at once that Gov. Budd had
designed to ''cinch'' the city banks be-
fore the board of equalization. to raise
their assessments and to collect from
them more taxes than they are paying.
While the governors scheme was in
tended to touch only the city banks, 1t
would. If put into effect, extend to every
bank or banking institution in Cali
fornia and would, in consequence. have
a most serious result upon the financial
affairs of the state.
Just what Gov. Budd's real purpose is,
and what influences inspired his letter.
have not become apparent.
No action in the matter was taken by
the hank commissioners Yesterday hut
it is understood that today the local
banks will make a move toward getting
at the facts of the case and the purpose
of Gov. Budd's request.
