ALBANY, March 1.-The report Of Frederick

ing and loan associations in this State last
year, will be transmitted to the Legislature to-
morrow. There are $40 of these corporations
operating in the State. both locals" and ma

stricted to a limited territory. but tho opera
tions Of the nationals" are not limited.
These corporations have total assets Of S61.-

bond and mortgage. The receipts last year
wero $33.99s 1888, of which $13.375. 99S was
received as subscriptions from members. Last
year $10.s63,762 was lent on mortgage and
$l1, 500. 6s5 was paid on Withdrawals. dues,
and profits. Mr.. Kilburn severely criticises
the operations of the national associations.
He says:
Some of these associations have been con-
Quoted solely in the interest of the managing
officers. whose operations have been little short
of leSalized robbery. 1t would be interesting to
trace the development OF these associations and
show how the various features which have ex-
posed many Of them to just condemnation have
been due to the greed Of OFFICIALS %hs and the fierce
usually provided for in the articles OF associa..
ton of the national associations, were original
~ instituted. to meet tho desire of managing off,
GERS for greater salaries than the profits of the
association in its early history would permit
Superintendent Kilburn that
the State Statutory Revision Commission be
directed to revise and codify the laws govern
ing the operation of building and loan associa.
tions and says:
'Such a law should provide some reasonable
limit as to the territory within which such asso.
Citations should be allowed to invest the money
Of their shareholders. and should restrict loans
upon real estate to first mortgage securities. 1t
should limit the amount that may be used for
operating expenses. and II the practice of max
ing expense fund deductions from the capital
paid in by stockholders is to continue, it should
prohibit the practice OF free Withdrawals In any
Form.
ut should require the officers of such associa-
tions to apportion and credit profits either an
nually or semi.annually carrying a percentage
of the net profits to a contingent fund to meet
possible losses. II should define the circum-
stances under which the Superintendent of
Banks should be allowed to intervene and close
such associations, including therein a defni.

LONDON, March 1.-The Government was
questioned in tho House of Commons to-day In
regard to the situation in the East. Mr.. Curzon,
Under Foreign Secretary. said in reply that It
would be inopportuno to fully announce the
situation during the progress Of negotiations.
but the Government regarded the integrity Of
China as of tho highest Importance, and It's
policy must be to prevent the disruption OF that
empire and provide for It a fresh lease Of life.
Ho admitted that the war between China and
Japan had boen responsible for the present diff

to give those countries a lien upon China.
Mr.. Curzon added that the seizure and allena-
ton Of Chinese territory was no part of tho
British policy. but no could conceive the posi-
bility Of circumstances arising in the future
that would imperil the interests Of Great Brit
ain and compel her to depart from hor present
attitude.
Referring to the Chinese loan. Mr.. Curzon
confirmed the reports that neither the British

He intimated that the announcement concern
