AS an expression of their belief in the
solidity of the growth of Indianapolis with
III the past few years, the banking and
brokerage house of Meyer & Kiser, in the
Indiana Trust Company building, announce
that they will in the next few days place
themselves in Communication with the
New York and Philadelphia Stock Ex-
changes by direct wire running into their
office. This service means the outlay of a
large sum of money each year, say the
bankers. but they believe in time they can
secure enough business to pay for the in
novation.
With this direct connection they will be
enabled to furnish clients in a brief space
of time with any desired security. They
purpose to vary their business by loaning
money on stock certificates as collateral,
but will not engage in a margin business.
Mr.. Meyer said yesterday that 1t is the
firms expectation to ultimately purchase
q seat in the New York Stock Exchange.
For the present, however, they will be con-
tent to have direct communication with
members of the exchange. An interesting
feature of the new service will be the re-
ceipt daily of all news and gossip of the
two great Eastern exchanges and of promi-
nent Eastern brokers.

The principal business before the Board
of School Commissioners last night was the
report Of Messrs. Johnson and Smith, ex-
pert accountants. who examined the books
Of the auditor and treasurer of the board.
The reports figures correspondent with the
report Of the expenditures. receipts, ETC.,
of the secretary Of the board, submitted

In their report the experts show the
progressive methods Of the Indianapolis

point out that the cash balance on July l..
1901, of s176. 432. 46. compared with the cash
balance on the same date last year of SAL
722.46; the Indebtedness Of SIS, 424.92 paid.
~refunding 10000 of the, bonded debt at a
reduced interest, and increasing the surplus
OF assets over the liabilities from 1908, 104.26
to $l,256, 020. %. are the most gratifying fea-
lures of the report The cash balance TO
the credit of the School Board as show
by the experts report on July /, 1901. Is

ned To permit the board 20 make such
transfer when necessary. The board al
lowed the experts $500 Ior examining the
