ROTHCHiLDS' BONDS
 MAY BE VALUELESS
An Issue of $4.OOO,OOO Said to Be of
 the Central of Georgia.

Savannah, June 1i.-Dispatches from that the Rothschilds had been forced through a suit to make good S4,000, ,O00 for bonds they had induced pur- chaser to buy. These bonds, it was all legged, were part of an issue of the Cen tral railway of Georgia.
 Brokers and others in Savannah have been puzzled to know what bonds these could have been. but it has been learned that they are probably the worthless securities issued by the Georgia company about 1888 and fioated through the medium of the Roth schildS.
 At that time 42.O00 shares of the Gen. tral Railroad and Banking company stock were held by Inman, Rollins, Cal houn and others outside of Savannah. They organized what was known as the Georgia company, which was incorpor- ated in North Carolina. In their stock they issued $4O00,0 900 worth of bonds.
 The value of the bonds were based upon the value of the stock and when the Central Railroad and Banking com pany stock became valueleSS the bond issue based upon that stock also be- came valueless. The bonds had prob- ably been placed with the Rothschilds before the stock lost its value. If that is the issue the RothSchilds now have they are holding bonds that have no value.

DON'T ABANDON MARTINIUE.
Paris Temps Points Out the Absurdi:y
 of the Suggestion.

Paris. June 1.-The semi official Temps exhaustively discusses the f1- ture of the island of Martinique. It de- nounces enersetically the idea which has been put forward that the colony should be abandoned.
 The paper points out that only one tenth of the island has been devastated by the eruption. It estimates that the material losses at St. Pierre will be covered by 1OO,0O0,O0O francs. It .'m- phasiZes the fact that S5 per cent of the sugar refining plants and only so per cent of the plantations and facto- ries are intact. The cocoa planta tions have disappeared. but the majority of the coffee plantations have not been injured.
 The condition of the Bank of Martin ique is excellent. Exchange is at par. The bank did not suffer any loss by the disaster in it's profits. Bank notes will be issued sufficient to compens ate for those burned.

A COMBINE OF
 NATIONAL BANKS
American Trust Co. Heading
 the Organization
Proposes to Have Institutions As Branches in Every Big City of the Country, and in Every State Capital-New York Will Be Head quarters.

New York, June 1.-The North American Trust Company, of New York is forming combination of the national banks of the country, which is to include one national bank in each financial center and state capital.
 The combination will be known as the American Bankers Corporation. which has been quitely chartered under the general corporation act of New Jersey, with capital of 5,000, ,000. The char ter provides for a surplus of $45, 900 0O0.
 The plan is outlined in confidential
 letter from the trust company to the
 various financiers with whom it is ue-
 gotiating.
 It says: "The American Bankar
 Corporation has been chartered under
 the New Jersey laws. The only taxes
 payable will be the annual one-tenth of l per cent on $5.00O, 900 capital. The main office nominally, Jersey City, will
 be only the meeting place for stock holders. No deposits will be accepted
 by the parent institution, which will confine its operations. to the investment ! oi it's capital and surplus. Its first purchase will be large New York city I national bank. New York will be the practical headquarters.
 'The special features of the plan will | be the Encouragement of the dangerous method of paying high interest on de- l posits. Instead will be given large l libcrality to customers in exchange for | checks and cashing of drafts with bills of lading attached-avoidance of un- | necessary accumulation when they can l be prof1tably used in another section With the exception. perhaps, of the New York Central bank only bare con- | trolling interest in out-of-town banks
 will be sought.
 | "The ownership of these institutions will be sufficient guarantee to the Ge- i posting public without necessitating 1 large and veXatious local capital and i surplus liabilities, the idea being that l the smaller the capitalization in proportion to the deposits ob- l tainable, the larger the profits. l The capital stock will be invested in | United tSates and state bonds. It will | be noted that the central idea is the
 provision to utilize to it's fullest ex-
 tent the large credit of such an ,insti- tion by means of numerous small capi- talizations throughout the country"
