A SOLID CONCERN.
Such Is the Bank Of Commerce Of This
City.

With pleasure this paper calls atten-
tion to the statement of the Bank of
Commerce, which was published on
January T. The figures presented
show a great increase over those OF
the previous statement. the deposits
amounting to sos, e,2e6.5o. The com
parative increase in deposits of this
popular banking institution, since
January. 1896. is shown to be as fol
lows In 1896 the deposits were $780,
Gs347: in 1897. s201, ,964.32; in 1898,
s2s4. 4O1.41: in 1899, S377, ,645.56; in
1900, S4Sl.11S.24: in 1901. s543 .22909; ;
in 1902. s7oe. .2s6.5o, showing an incease
of s55S .60o.03 in six years. and The
Citizen dares the assertion that no
other bank in the southwest, with an
equal amount of capital invested, can
make such a substantial comparison
in its business for so short a period.
The figures presented are monuments
to the business capabilities of the Off
cials of the bank, and they are put
into type for the information of the
banking public. The officers and di-

Hepburn, in conclusion.
Mr.. Hepburn declared that he did
not believe that the United States

tied enterprise at Panama. The Pan
anna company had forfeited its rights
and we should deal with Panama.

Fhs Chief Of The Naval Burssa Of Equip
nsst and Repair Tells Aboat
The Coal Used.

Washington, Nov. 1o.-In his an
nual report, made public yesterday,
Admiral Bradford, chief Of the bu-
reau Of equipment and repair of the
navy department. takes occasion TO
renew his protest against the action
Of the department in substituting .
naval constructor for . line officer
at shipbuilding works. He says 1t is
an anomaly to build ship and pre-.
pare her for sea under the superb
sion Of q landsman. The report does
not touch on the question Of add
tional coaling stations or of wireless
telegraphy. The total amount Of coal
purchased during the year was 3ss,-
O4O tons at an average cost Of 1881
per ton, against SOL last year. This
is the lowest price paid for coal since
1898, when the average was A.6S.
The amount used for steaming pur-
poses has increased more than five
times during the past ten years.
Admiral Bradford renews his rec
ommendation for the construction
Of two large steam golfers, capable
Of carrying 10000 tons Of coal as
cargo and 1000 tons in bunkers, with
accommodation for naval person
mel and liberal amount Of stores and
a secondary battery.

WILL SUPPRESS LADR0NISM.
Martial Law May Be Declared and the
Writ Of Habeas Corpus Suspended
In Csvlte Province.

Manila, Nov. 10.-The government
Is adopting vigorous measures to
suppress ladronism in the provinces
Of Cavite, Rial and Bulcan. A zone
embracing those provinces and sur
rounding Manila, is the scene of con-
slant petty and sometimes serious
disorders. Several armed bands,
some Of them numbering 200 or 300
men, are operating in the described
district and have committed various
depredations. They find . safe
refuge in the mountains. The plan OF
the government contemplates secur-
ing the assistance Of the military,
which has been inactive since the
end of the instruction. The extent
Of the army's participation in the
work Of suppression depends upon
developments. 1t is probable that
the military authorities will request
the garrisons to protect the more i'm
portant towns, while the constabu-
larry conducts the field operations.
It is thought that martial law, in .
modified form will be declared and
the privilege Of the writ Of habeas
corpus suspended in Cavite province,
which has been the home Of the
ladrones for ages.

WEBB M'NALL SUSTAINED.
His Method Of Collecting Insurance Com.
panies' Taxes Right, the Kansas gu.
preme Court Says.

Topeka, Kan, Nov. 1O.-The su.
preme court reversed the case Of the
Metropolitan Life Insurance company
against Webb McNall, ex-superintend-
emit of insurance. The company in
stituted the suit to recover the two
per cent. tax paid on its 1898 pre-
miums in February, 1899. McNall
made the insurance companies pay
the tax Immediately after the
passage Of the law and he took the
volume of their business Of 1898 as a
basis for making the collection. The
supreme court holds that this was
proper; that the tax was not really
upon the 1898 business, but was fee
for doing business in 1899, and that
McNall was right in collecting 1t in
advance and using the 1898 business
as a basis for levying the tax.

THE M'ATEE SUICIDE.
1 Coincidence Comes Tn Light with the
Death Of the Kansas CITY South.
ern Clerk.

Louisville, KY, Nov. 11.--Mrs. Julia
Long, the mother Of John McAtee,
the Kansas City Southern clerk, who
Is reported to have committed sui
eide in Kansas City Sunday because
of an accusation of attempted rob-
berry, rejects the story of theft as
the motive. She says John McAtee
is an only son and could have had
financial assistance had he asked for
It. A grewsome coincidence comes to
light in connection with the death of
McAtee. When he was a young man
he was intimate with three other
well known young men-Irving Gill
lis, Dudley Reynolds and VIII Cocker.
Each Of these men has since died by
his own hand, McAtee being the last
of the quartette to take his life.

SECRETARY Hay CRITICISED.
Rabbi krauakOpf Thinks the Secretary Of
State Failed In His Note About the
ROumanian jews

Philadelphia, Nov. 1O.-Rabbi Jo-
seph Krauskopf, Of the Reform
Congregational Kenesthe Israel, q
leading Hebrew Of this city and one
Of the best known Hebrew clergy
men in the east, yesterday delivered
a sermon entitled Secretary Hay
and the Roumanian jew" in which he
criticised the note sent by the secre'
tary to the European powers on the
question Of the Roumanian Jews.
He said in part: my want Of faith
in the success Of the laudable and
well-intentioned effort on the part
Of our honored secretary was based
on the note itself. The larger part
Of the note, which I call the self-pro'
tective, felt from the outstart in
vited failure for the United States
and disappointment for the Rouma-
MAN jews" The secretary, DR..
Krauskopf said, would have written
the name of the United States i'm
mortal on the moral history Of man
kind had he invited the Jewish refu-
gees to this country and had he
turned to Christian Roumania and
entreated them to put an end to the
prosecutions. "Had these words been
spoken" he said, ut would have
shown our interest to be one Of hui
manity and not Of self. 1t Is the
self-protective spirit Of the Hay note
that impairs its effectiveness"

AFFAIRS IN ISLE OF PINES.
A state Of Anarchy Existing and American
Interssts Absolutely Unprotected
Roosevelt Calls for Report.

Washington, Nov. 11.-President
Roosevelt has asked the secretary of
war to make report on the situa-
ton regarding the Isle Of Pines as IL
was at the time of the withdrawal Of
the United States from Cuba and also
on the government of that island
during the time the United States
was in control in Cuba.
In an interview on the condition
of affairs upon the island, Mr.. I. j.
Keenan,, Of Pittsburg, who is presi-
dent of the Residents and Property
Owners association, said that the
condition of affairs on the island was
SO bad that United States Minister
Squires had virtually advised a dele
CATION of American Pine Islanders,
who recently called on him in Haya-
ma, to take matters into their own
/! hands and establish provisional
| government. Continuing Mr.. Keenan,
said: "The Isle of Pines is on the
verge Of anarchy, having no govern
ment, no courts or magistrates, no
schools and no revenue. All taxes
and customs dues paid by the island
ers go into the Cuban treasury and
not cent is expended for their bene-
ct. All property and other records
art kept in Cuba and transfers OF
real estate are rendered well nigh
impossible by the enormous fees de-
manded BY Cuban officials. All cleo
lions have been suspended and Amer
lean interests are absolutely unpro-
tected, and yet American citizens
own nearly one-half of the island and
are majority of the tax-paying
population"
