Stockholders Furnish the
Money Needed.
Chicago Dime Savings Bank
Now on Solid Basis.
Assessment Of Fifty Per Cent. Was
Paid by Stockholders.

CHICAGO, Jan. 1.-The Dime Savings
Bank has been saved, it is announced, by
the sacrifice of the stock holoers who
have gone down into their pockets and
paid the ssse sment OF some 30 per cent.
The examination of Auditor tore is
uncerstood to have shown a large de-
ficiency in the assets and rather than have
the institution close its doors leaving its
1000 depositors to suffer, the directors put
the bank on Its feet. So successful were
they that the State auditor gave his full
endorsement to the new condition of the
institution. The cash reserve was in
creased to over 25 per cent. of the deposits
as compared with the legal reserve of 10
per cent. for savings banks. Just how
soon tse 90-day notice for depositors will
be Withdrawn has not been determined.
1t is stated the Dime Savings bank viii
soon be sold to some one of tue stronger
banks.

FOR TRAIN WRECKING.
Two Suspects Placed In jail at
Birmingham, Ala.
Evidence Against Them Not Disclosed
AS There May he Other Arrests.

BIRMINGHAM. Ala, Jan. 1.-Two sus-
pected train wrsckers were placed in jail
here today. They gave tLeir names as
Tom Ingham and II. II. Egsn. Both are
negroes. They were apprehended by
special railroad detectives In the noun
tsins about 10 miles from the city. Inc
officials positively refuse to disclose tho
character Of the evidence against tie men
or to allow Uny outsicers to communicste
with them. This conduct ia explained by
the fact that other arrests are contem-
plated and il is stated sensational dis
closures will follow. The theory Of the
detectives now seems to 20 that the work
was done by an organized band OF
negroes. who had a rendezvous in the
mountains and that there were three or
more in the gang IT develops that three

Up to the start for West Point, Grant
had been Hiram Ulysses or ii. Ulysses
Grant. The young traveller required a
trunk, and Thomas Walker, local
"genius," was the man to make 1t. He
did 30, and, to finish 1t of, he traced on
the cover, in big brass tscks, the initials
II. u. q. James Marshall, Uiyssss's cousin,
went to help him carry the new trunk
home. Ulysses Looked at the big glaring
letters. "I Won't have that so," he said.
"It spells hug; the boys would plsgde
me about it," And he the.eupon shifted
his middle name, and became Ulysses II.
Grant, and so he went forth into the
world.
He registered at Roe's Hotel, West
Point, on the 2oth of May, as "U. ii.
Grant" and the same day reported to
the adjutant. George u. wsggamsn, de-
posted SiS. and signed bis name Ulysses
Hiram Grant. his name as reported
from Warrington, however, was U. s.
Grant, sno the error arose ia this way:
The Hon. Thomos Hamer received he let
ter Of Jesse Grant only the day before the
close of his term, and being much hurried
sat down at once and wrote to Secretary
OF War Ponsett, asking for the appoint

tho boys name to be Ulysses, snd infer
ring that his middle nape was Simpson,
so fiilco in the application. and thus II
