The questions whether the statutes re-
lating to national banks prohibiting
them from purchasing or subscribing
to the stocks of another corporation,
and whether the want of authority can
be urged by the bank to defeat an at
tempt to enforce against it the liability
Of a stakeholder, were passed on by
the United States Supreme Court Mon
day, in the ase of the California Nat
ional Bank, plaintiff in error. VS.. Nat
Kennedy. The court holds that a nat
ional bank has no right to deal in
stocks, although it may accept them as
securities, and that it may plead its
want of power as defense in a case like
the n in question. The transaction
in the stock of the savings bank is
held to have been void, and the judg-
ment of the Supreme Court of Califor-
MIA against the national bank is re-
yersed.

sound Reasons for Approval.

+. There are several cogent reasons why
the medical profession recommend and
the public prefer Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters above the ordinary cathartics. It
does not drench and weaken the bowels,
but assists rather han forces nature to
act; it is botanic and safe; its action is
never preceded by an Internal earthquake
like that produced by a drastic purgative.
For forty-five years past it has been a
household remedy for liver, stomach and
kidney trouble.

IN WEST VIRGINIA.

Miners Are Still Mt Work Despite Eff
forts to Get Them Out.
Wheeling, w. Va, July 14.-Develop-
ments acros the river in the Eastern
Ohio mining district were meager. In
terest has shifted from the Dillonvale
mines, on the Wheeling & Lake Erie
road, up the river to the region on the
Baltimore & Ohio, back of the river
from Bellaire. The men at the Schick
mines there have been working at the
GO-cent rate demanded by the strikers,
but the men in the other mines along
the Baltimore & Ohio object to the
men working and are trying to force
them out. West Virginia coal is pass
ing over three coal-carrying roads in
this vicinity in large quantities but so
far there has been no molestation of
trains.
At Dillonville all is quiet and the
only possible source of trouble, so far
as car be seen, lies in the rumored in
tention of the Wheeling & Lake Erie
management to operate the mines with
outside men. Such q course means
wholesale evictions Of the old men,
aud trouble could be scarcely averted.

would make the number of barrels lost
in excess of the first estimate.
THE FIRES ORIGIN.
, The most feakiLe, theory as to The
origin of the fire is that it started from
a gas light in the shed of Brookings q
Atkins. The window on the west side OF
the shed was open, and was only snort
distance from the light. Near the light
were a number of greasy garments, an
it is probable that the wind blew the
flame from the light against the clothes
and ignited them. 1t is said that the
shed contained distillate and kerosene,
excellent food for the flames.
Work OF pumping the wells will not be
resumed for some time yet.
