ECKEI.S NOT ALARMED.
Washington. Dec. Comptroller Of
the currency Ecltels said this afternoon
that he feels no apprehension over the
bank failures which nave occurred Of
late Mr.. Eckcls when asked to-day by
Il representative Of the Associated Press
as to the general banking situation said
"Of course bank failures are more or
less disquieting, but those which have
occurred recently have little OF no gencr-
al significance attached to them. They
were due largely to local causes, wholly
unconnectcd with the general condition
Of the banks throughout the country at
large.
"The case of the Atlas bank was not
"A failure at all but was a mere YOluu-
tarily liquidation, every dcpositor being
paid in full. The two failures to-day are
OF minor Importance, in each case the
bank capital being only 100000. AS
against these few failures, based on local
causes, the general condition Of the banks
is excellent The reports received under
the call--that Of December 17-are uni
formily favorable and show an average
reserve held of considerable above the
% per sent required by the law
One Of the last reports, that Of the
Brooklyn banks, shows the average re-
serve held to be 34O2 per cent, and most
Of the reports run FIVE or ten per cent
above the legal requirements. In each
case, too, the assets in detail make an
entirely satisfactory showing as cOmpar-
ed with the liabilities. On the whole it
is evident that the National banks to-day
are as stable as they ever were and the
sporadic failure Of a bank here and there
through defects peculiar to the failing
bank is of small Importance, wholly
without general significance l am adv@z
ed from Minneapolis that the failure
there has OccasiOned no disturbance be-
y0nd the institution concerned"

STEAMER ST. PAUL ALL RIGHT.

Philadelphia, Pa, Dec. 29.-Clement
A Griscom, president of the international
Navigation Company, to-day denounced
as false the statement cabled from Lon
don that the steamship st. Paul, built in
this city, was about to be extensively
oyerhauled and rivetted along her entire
hull below a certain level, because Of
weakness. He said:
ut is the period of the annual over
hauling Of all the ships Of the American
line and we are taking advantage of the
ST. Paul being laid of for an overhaul
to make good those rivets which were
distressed when she went ashore last
January.
''No ship was ever in the predicament
that the st. Paul was and extricated with
as little damage to the huh, and these
rivest in question might possible be al
lowed to remain undisturbed, but it is
not the policy of the company to be
hypercritical in such matters"
Mr.. Griscom, in conclusion, said that
while the ship was in dry dock at Newport
News, just after the stranding, the strain
ed rivets could not be made good, owing
to the ship being too close to the floor
of the dry dock for the workmen to re-
pair them, and he added that the cabled
statement "that the riyets were loosened
by the working of the engines, ETC., ETC.,
is false and calculated to injure the repu-
tation of the ship before the public, if not
cOntradicted."

We publish below an editorial from tht
Atlanta Journal ON the propriety Of lcgis
lators receiving free passes. The argu
mcnt that the Journal mQkes TO the
Georgia legislators has equal force to
North Carolina legislators 1--WE hope q
similar bill will be introduced and will
become law the first day; Of the ap-
preaching session Of the Moth Carolina
Legislature. Hon. Hoke Sn5ith is lead
ing FOR needed reform in :his crusade
against legislators. who are TO pass upon
the rights OF railroads, accepting cour-
tesips nj their hands. We quote:
"1'he fact that the bill 10 prohibit
members OF the Legislature and other
public officials from accepting free
passes from railroads was sntroduced
i'm the House by a Popuhst should
prejudice no Democrat against it.
This is in no sense party ques-
ton. The bill strikes at a practice
which should have been prohibited
long ago and proposes n reform which
the people of Georgia want to see en-
acted. 4 powerful argument for legis-
latiOn against the free pass evil was
presented when the Southern Railway
hung In the capitol placard announc-
ing that members who wanted passes
over it's lines could get them by ap-
plying to the company's attorney.
I'VE submit that no member of the
Legislature should have dealings of
This kind with the attorney of n cor
,,,~, fs,,, ,x-h3nI, fe a fp tho
action Of the General Assembly.
The legislative free pass practice
is one of those evils which :inevitably
become worse the longer they last. 1t
is high time that a check 6e applied
when one company controls most of
the railroads in the State and its
passes have on that account become
the NOSE desirable.
"AicmbcrS Of the Legislature are
put to na expense in coming to the
capitol 81 attend to the States busi-
ness or in returning to their homes.
On the contrary they are paid out of
the State Treasury more: than the
trip costs them. They :receive in
mileage much more tham railroad
tickets to and from Atlanta would
cost them. Being overpail for COM
ing to the capitol and g9lng nome
they should renounce the:pomp and
pleasure of railroad passes whether
held by railroad attorneys for them
until they call or sent to them in a
more gracious manner by che officials
of the company.
''The anti-pass bill should become a
law at this session. There are many
reasons why it should pass and alb
solutely not one against 1t that is
worthy Of consideration"

Prospect of a Republican senator From
Kentucky Appears Rather slender.
Washington, Dec. ga special to tbe
Post from Louisville. says Governor
Bradley has not yet said when he viii
call an extra session Of the Kentucky
Legislature. There is now possibility
that the fear expressed 10y many Republi-
cans in urging the sessou-that the Re
publican majority would be broken IL
the session was delayed too long-will
be realized. The Republicans have sew
enty members in the joint session. This
is just enough TO elect, and not one man
can be spared. But Senator A. ID. James,
Of Muhlenburg county, has been lying
dangerously i'll Mt his home for three
weeks His physicians say that he has
heart disease, and that death may come
MT any moment His loss would mean
the delay of an election un-
til meeting OF the next Legis-
lature. and as the indications are that
this will be silver Democratic, the Re
publicans will then have let slip an OPP
portunity that cannot return for many
years.
The only chance then would be to unite
with the gold Democratic members
These, to man. are working for the
election Of John G. Carlisle They will
probably refuse to vote for any Re
publican. SO unless the members Of the
latter party are willing to elect the Secro-
tary of the Treasury, there seems to he
no man on whom they can unite
The warfare between Bradley and
Hunter. both Of whom are aspirants and
the latter an active worker for the Sena-
torial seat continues without abatement.
Neither man Of them can be elected.
Bradley. in fact. has already given mp
hope, aud is simply trying to prevent the
election of his bitter enemy. But neither
is there any chance of this, if the temper
OF the Bradley followers is TO he judged
10y remarks made 10y some Of them. Sena-
tor Il. G. Linney. OF the TWeuty-oighth
Louisville district, in speaking of this

Hunter under any circumstances. II he
should be the caucus nominee, I will rise
in joint session and say that as my party
has given me ne man for whom ] can
vote, l must cast my ballot for John

near Bradley that he will not call it un-

CAPT: MULLINS KILLED.
Fell out of a Fourth Story Window
While on a Spree

Norfolk, Va, Dee. 29.-Capt. James
G.. Mullins, lost his life some time during
hast night by falling from a window Of
the hotel Gladstone, where he had board
ed for some months. He went to his
apartments about three O'Clock Monday
afternoon under the influence Of drink
and was found this morning about Z
o'clock. His hfeless form, stiff and cold
was discovered Tying in the yard of the
hotel, he having fallen from a fourth
story window, a distance Of about forty
feet. When his body was discovered it
was found that his nose was cut and his
face and body badly bruised, but none
of his bones were broken. From the posi-
ton in which his body was lying it is be-
1ieved that he fell fat on his face, and
was killed Instantly, esther from shock,
or from the rupture Of some vital organ.
The deceased had towel grasped tight
~ in one hand and was undressed, hav-
ing on his top and undershirt. 1t would
seem that during the night he got out
of bed, went to the washstand, imme-
Ciately back of the window for q pur-
pose, and possibly raised the window to
get air and fell out, grasping the towel as
he fell. He was a heavily built man,
weighing about 235 pounds.
Captain Mullins was about 80 years
old, and was very popular, especially in
military circles, having been for some
time commander Of the Jackson Light
infantry. He was regarded as very
bright in military tactics. He served at
Blacksburg as tactician for a good many
years. He was a son of the late Major
John Mullins, Of Norfolk county, and a
