upon Ida Kraft, to have been held today

DIES MONIES, Oct. 27.-(special.)-State
Auditor Merriam today issued the state
ment of the condition OF state and savings
banks in Iowa as shown by their reports
made to him under call OF September is
last. This was the first call since June is.
The increase in business of the banks, es-
p~ecially in the matter Of deposits and loans,
is highly gratifying. In fact the bank state
ment wholly disputes statements which
have been current during the summer that
there was a stringency in money matters
and that bank business was on the decline.
The statement, as compared with that Of
June. shows that in the matter OF bills
receivable which is almost entirely loans
by banks to customers, the increase in the
three months was over "a, 800, 600 and the
deposits increased 1921, 900. There was also
substantial increase in capital stock and
surplus, while there was a great decrease
in the general credits,
A computation made by Chief Clerk NJ.
M. Robertson Of the auditors oflce indi-
Gates that while under the law the 2S6 saw
ings banks are required to maintain a re-
serve OF over 1000, 900, they actually have
over $40, 000, 900, and while the $40 state
banks should under the law have a reserve
Of over $12, 0O0, 900, they have actually over
$14, 00O. 900. The exact computation shows
that the reserve on hand shows a surplus
of 81, 7e7,510 more than required by law.
This is on the basis of counting all banks
as in small towns. The actual surplus, II
every bank was computed exactly. would
be more than this sum, but this computa-
ton shows that the banks are highly pros
porous.
The following is the consolidated state
ment of the condition Of state and savings

Declaration EminentIy Proper.

Our political enemies demand a defense
of the details of the present tariff laws
and. they charge us with standing pledged
to the maintenance of existing rates. This
is not the republican position and so to
answer the charge 1t Is eminently proper
to make the declaration contained in the
Iowa platform.
If the state convention of Iowa should
declare specifically for tariff revision or
for any specific remedy for trusts / doubt
not the Iowa delegation will be very prompt
to heed, and certainly the Iowa members
Of the cabinet will bring the subject to
the careful attention of the president.
This has not been done as yet and there
fore neither tariff revision nor anti-tariff
revision Is a party measure In this state.
How soon we may expect a substitute for
the Dingley tariff law / am not prepared
to predict. The responsibility is with con-
gress. The republican party never submits
1t lays down the great doctrine of protec-
ton to American labor and It fights for
this principle, but It leaves to congress the
task OF carrying out the details OF legisla-
ton in harmony with the principle.
1 anticipate some opposition will be en-
gendered among republicans and demo-
Gratis alike If an attempt is made to re-
produced by the large corporations, popu-
larly called trusts. The idea is not novel.
1t has ben urged In times past and some
very excellent people, whose good ju1g-
ment is entitled to the ~weightiest consid-
GRAFTON, are now urging It. but we can
stand high prices far better than We can
idle labor.
Before the remedy can be applied It will
become necessary to determine whether a
trust exists or not, and If 1t exists and
that fact can be established, the Sherman
law is quite sufficient to correct the evil.

publican national platform of 1892. It. too.
was ambiguous and some construed II as
declaring in favor OF the free and unlim-
tied coinage of silver.
The tariff plank in our state platform Is
not a declaration in favor OF tariff revi-
sion, neither is 1t a declaration against

LIABILITIE
street Railway Company beaten.

0Neh~A
The supreme court today disposed of a
Cedar Rapids case which came near caus-
ing riots two years ago. The Cedar Rapids
& Marion Street Railway company sought
to lay tracks along a street and this was
resisted by the city and the owners Of
adjacent property. For some time there
was an armed condition of affairs on the
street. Today the court held that the com
pany can be compelled to place the tracks
in the middle of the street and to do the
paving between tracks. In a Marshall
county case the supreme court declared
that Judge Caswell should have permitted
the taking of the case to the federal court
when the railroad company filed proof that
1t was such a case as the federal court
could take Jurisdiction Of. The following
were the decisions filed:

The Northumberland Adams.

The engagement of Maude Adams at the
National Theatre which begins next Mon
day night. will undoubtedly be one of the
most brilliant theatrical events of the
year. Both star and play have won the
most distinguished success, and not few
writer's have declared that it is the fin
est achievement of Miss Adams career
and the daintiest, sweetest play that the
author has written.
There is much in Quality Street that
commands admiration. and commends it
to the judgment of persons who hold that
the theatre should. in part. at least, be
representative of the intellectual. the re-
filming, the elevating, and the inspiring. 1t
is good literature, but underlying this
literary experiences are other things that
make for excellence in Mr. Barrie's work.
1t has a vein of tenderness and manly SEN
timent that appeals to the best and gem
TEST traits of beirg. 1t is an exq uisitely
drawn picture of manners, and the adroit
handling of character and incident is an
exhibition of finest workmanship. The
humor is of good quality, and its wit is
scintillant.

Schumann-Heink Recital.

The joint song recital by Nine. Schu-
mann Heink and Mrs. Susanna Adams. to
be given at the Columbia Theatre tomor-
row afternoon, has excited much interest
in musical circles. Both singers have
been heard here in opera, and the former
has also been heard in concert.
Nine. Schumann-H eink is undoubtedly
the greatest contralto now before the
public. She has won her position by con-
slant study and hard work. AS she her
self said recently: Il have not leaped
into success. It has been long, painful,
and often discOuraging struggle. Others
have passed me and won triumphs l was
entitled to. The disappointments were
bitter. but they did not break my pur-
pose. Luck has very little to do with it.
One must be content to study and work,
and justice is sure to come in the end.
She will sing an aria, "Armida." by Han
del. a recitation and aria. "Paulus; four
Schubert songs, and a group of Schumann
songs and a Bolero by Arditi.

new piece was given with clearness of

all its daintiness. softness, and pliabili

LADIES' STRING QUARTETTE.
Excellent Programme Well Interpreted
at the Washington Club.

The second recital of the season by the
Ladies' String Quartette was given last
night in the rooms of the Washington
Club. The programme was listened to by
an audience which completely filled the
parlors. The concert was under the able
direction of Ernest Lent, and proved to be
up to the high standard established by
the quartette in their earlier recitals, and
was as interesting as five talented musi-
clans could make it.
Miss Anita Cluss, harpist, was the as
sisting artist of the evening. Beethoven,
Tschakowsky. and Stearns furnished
compositions specially arranged for a
string quartette. the opening number be-
ing selected from Beethoven's opus Is,
No. 4, minor. All four movements
we're played with much skill and fine dis
elimination. while Tschaikowsky's intri-
cate "Andante Cantabile." composition
to test the abilities of older and more ex-
perienced musicians. was READ accurately
and in excellent taste.
The two club soloists were Miss Mabel
Montgomery and Mss Marie Bastianelli.
Both were cordially received, and enthu-
siastically applauded for their pleasing
rendition OF their separate numbers. The
former gave Neruda's beautiful "Berceuse
Slave" and Miss Bastianelli's selection
was the well known and favorite 'Cava-
tina by J. Raft.
Miss Ciuss occupies an enviable posi-
tion in local musical circles, in that she
is the only harpiste in Washington to
whom the public may look for artistic
and high-class harp selections, and her
appearance with the Ladies' String Quar-
tette last night was one of the distinct
features of the recital. Miss Cluss num-
bers included Hasselman's "Berceuse"
and the ''Danse des Sylphes," by Code
froid Schuberts Ave Maria arranged
for strings and harp. was among the ex-
ceptionally pleasing numbers.

COMING TO THE THEATRES.
Columbia-"Beside the Bonnie Brier
Bush"

J. II. Stoddart in THE Bonnie Brier
Bush" one of the chief dramatic sue
cesses of the present season. will be the
attraction at the Columbia next week.
The action of the play. which is a dram
atiZation of Ian MacLaren's charming
story of similar title, is devoted to the
love match of Lord Hay and Flora Camp
bell shepherds daughter; the misunder-
standing which leads her father, Lachlen
Campbell, to drive her from home and the
subsequent clearing of the clouds and
the happy reunion of the lovers.
Mr.. Stoddart's role is that of the harsh
and bigoted Lachlen Campbell. He por-
trays it in a way that has won uni
yersal compensation for both his acting
and the play. During the long run of
the piece in New York City, critics con-
tended as to whether the Scottish idyl
would properly class as a realistic ro-
nance or a comedy. However, the con-
seDsus of opinion both among the critics
and public seemed to be that the play is
one of the most charming that has been
produced for many seasons.
Mr.. Stocdart was surrounded by an ex-
cellent supporting company during the
run of the play in New York, and this
cast in its entirety will be. seen during its
presentation at the Columbia.
