WASHINGTON, Dec. 19-At the close of
business to-day the amount of bonds
which had been offered by national banks
as security for public deposits was about
$l5,O0O,OO0 These applications came from
all parts of the country, but mostly from
New York. Under the secretarys offer
cash will be transferred to national banks
on deposit of United States bonds to their
par value, except on threes, on which So
per cent. will be allowed, and twos, on
which 90 per cent. will be allowed. This is
an old rule and is intended to secure the
government from possible loss by reason
of temporary excess Of cash on hand over

the new order will be felt for some days

of the banks seeking deposits, for the rea-
son that if the banks should go into the
market for this purpose 1t probably would

Pingree Wants the Scalps of Members

LANSING, Mich. Dec. 19.-Governor Pin

tant General Fred II. Case, Of Three Riv-
ers, Quartermaster General William l..
White, of Grand Rapids, and Inspector
General A. s. Marsh, of Allegan, compris-
ing the State Militia Board. asking for
their designations because of alleged irreg-
ularities said to have been discovered by
the grand jury in their examination into
the alleged sale of some $4,000 worth of
military supplies by the board to the ''Illi-
nois Supply Company for $l0,5OO. 1t Is
claimed that the board then purchased the
same supplies, together with some others,
back again from the Henderson-Ames
Company, of kalamazoo, for $4,000. The
Governor says these disclosures indicate
either collision on the part Of the board or
failure to exercise due care in protecting
the interests of the State. The Governor
continues that, while he thinks it was lack
of care and not collusion, under the cir
cumstances he has determined to direct
that immediate steps be taken to recover
the money the State has lost and to ask
for the designations of the board.
Tomorrow the Governor will send a
special message to the Legislature asking
for the adoption Of a joint resolution in
structing Attorney General Oren to bring
suit for the money alleged to have been
lost in the deal.

GEN. LAWTON'S CAREER.
A Fearless Soldier, Who Won Fame
on Many BattlefieIds.

Henry w. Lawton was born in Toledo,
o.. March IL, 1913. His parents moved to
Fort Wayne while he was a boy. He got
only a common school education-not any
too much of that. He was not a book
man. Men were his books-men and hap
penings. A better hater never born
1t follows necessarily that he was true to
friendship. He was. in fact, a mans man.
Lawton entered the volunteer service of
the United States in April 1861, enlisting at
Fort Wayne, where he was then attending
high school. and was given the chevrons
of sergeant in Company +, of the Ninth
Indiana Infantry. In August, 1851, he was
made first lieutenant of the Thirtieth Indi-
ana In May, 1862, he was made captain,
was a lieutenant colonel in November,
1864, was brevetted colonel for gallant and
meritorious services in March, 1865. and
was mustered out of the service in No
vember, 1866. He had had practically four
years of the most tremendous war in the
history of the nations. He had been a
participant in a dozen pitched battles. but

Of skirmishes and midnight attacks He
was regarded mar of action and of
splendid courage, but was not considered
reckless. He never exposed his men with
out due consideration Of the risks and the
stake. His men knew this and unhesitat-
seemed to be the most desperate condi-
tions. The Indians came to know him as
the most active, vigilant and wary and
determined of foes, and his pursuit and
capture Of Geronimo, the famous Apache
chieftain, has gone down into history as
one Of the most remarkable campaigns
ever undertaken with the small force in
hands. General Miles picked out Lawton
to lead the chase after the Indian chief,
and for three months, day and night, with
out a pause, through all sorts of vicissi-
tudes and weather and personal suffering.
Lawton hung on the trail like a blood

Death Is n Calamity.
MILWAUKEE,, Dec. 19.-General Charles
King, who commanded brigade in Gen.
eral Lawtons division up to June last in
the war against the Filipinos, was much
depressed on hearing of the death of his
former commander. General King paid a
warm tribute to the dead general in the
following words: THE death of General
'Lawton.is a. calamity, yetspne that i have
been i'll dread of ever since he took COM
mand of our division last March. In point
of dash, energy and endurance, he was our
best. His one fault lay in his utter con-
tempt for danger. We could not prevail
upon him to use cover or shelter Of any
kind. He was perpetually running into
every kind of danger. exposing himself to
death and capture when there was no need
of 1t. He wanted to see everything for
himself, and would stalk out in front of the
lines. the most prominent figure on the
field. We loved him-we always have, ever
since the old cavalry days, when he was
the hardest and most daring of all the
band of young officers that won distinction
under Crook, Miles and Merritt. He was
Mackenzie's right bower, and his later
work in the Philippines was Incompatible.
AS friend and comrade he was as lovable
as he was great and heroic as a soldier"
