The London Times says the assas-

appears to be an act of anarchist
revenge for the execution of the

that the anarchists have given man

their race. Spain loses in Senior

New York Bankers Do Not Take
Kindly to the Postal Savings
Scheme.
Majority of Those Interviewed
Do Not Desire to Be Quoted,
However.
Rates on Money Now So Low
There Is Little Profit in
Banking.

New YORK. Dec 30.-The postal saw
ings banks idea is not popular one in
New York banking circles. A canvass
OF presidents of prominent institutions
developed that fact clearly. At the
same time very few presidents were
willing to express opinions for publica-
ton. All practically agreed with Presi-
dent e. S. Mason of the Bank of New
York in the statement that there are
so many banks in existence that rates
for money have been cut to point
where there is little profit in banking.
F. D. Happen, president of the Gala
tin National bank, thought that pos
sibly in thinly populated districts postal
savings banks might prove beneficial to
the people, but he was confident that
the residents of large towns and cities
had all the banking accommodation
they desired.
Oliver S. Carter of the Bank of the
Republic felt that the time had not
come to discuss the proposition. Mr..
Dumont Clark, president of the Amer
lean Exchange National bank, agreed
with Mr.. Carter. j. Edwards Simmons,
president OF the Fourth National, was
also of the same opinion and declined
80 discuss the proposition, because he
had not given it sufficient thought.
Henry w. Cannon, president of the
Chase National bank, was plainly OPP
posed to postal savings banks and did
not hesitate to say so.
Postal savings banks" he said,
shave been successful in other countries
for the reason that the countries have
large public debts, which are increas-
ing from year to year. Under such
conditions the money deposited by the
people IN the postal banks can be adj
vantageously used by the governments.
in England and France such deposits
really constitute a portion OF the public
debts of those countries.
lin this country the people hold the
opinion that the public debt should not
be increased, but ON the contrary, should
be reduced as rapidly as possible, and
therefore, it does not seem practicable
10 my mind tor the government to re-
ceive the money OF the people and in
vest the same IN securities. 1t is more
than likely we're postal savings banks
established in this country that the gov
eminent would very soon have a large
surplus of funds on hand which it
would be compelled to pay interest on
and the business would be conducted
ON the part OF the government at loss.
In my opinion, should postal savings
banks be established in the United
States, their deposits should be used
only by the general government, in the
same manner as in other countries"

Kansas City Judge Offers Belligerent At.
torneys n Chance to Fight 1t Out.
KANSAS CITY, Dec. 3O.-If Judge
Wofferd adheres to his intention that
he has announced from the bench, the
edifying spectacles of prize fights be-
tween belllgerent attorneys may be one
of the attractions of the criminal court
in the future.
Opposing attorneys in this court lately
have been using uncomplimentary lam
guage toward toward each other, and,
after tilt of this nature between Pros.
ecuting Attorney Lowe and Attorney
Mccoy, Judge Wofferd, after calling
them to order, said:
Hereafter when lawyers talk about
fighting in this court, shall adjourn
court and let them fight it out. If you
fellows want to fight you can come in
this room and fight it out, and I'll see
that there's fair play. Now, if you are
in earnest, come right along and let's
have it over with"
They did not accept the judges offer,
however, but apologized instead.

COLORADO GOLD OUTPUT.

Total Iroduct OF the State Estimated ut
822. zoo, 900.
DENVER, Dec. 30.-The books of the
United. o...ses branch mint for the year
1897 are now closed. The deposits of
gold are the largest ever received. The
total will slightly exceed $12, 200, 900,
and conservative estimate made by
she mint officials place the entire out
put of Colorado at $22, O00, 900 in round
figures. Colorado will go far ahead of
California, as it is said to be doubtful if
California's output will touch the
SIS, O00, 900 mark. Last year Colorado's
output was $40, 100000 and that of
California was $4,000, 900, while the
total production OF the country was
SCI, 717,926. The great increase in the
Colorado output this year will send the
total for the United States up to the
SIC, OOO, 900 mark.

In few months he broke awav
