NATIONAL BANK STATEMENTS
show a Decrease ia Deposits Os Quar-
ter of Million Dollars.

The national banks of this city have
made their statement of the condition Of
the banks at the close of business on
February 18th as the comptroller of the
currency had made his cali for the state
meut on that date The bank statement
shows that the total deposits in the three
banks is $3.50 t22.0i against sf2i3. 7S4.:S
deposits when the banks made their
statements on December 10th This shows
"a decrease in deposits of a little over a
quarter of a million dollars
The banks state that the deposits of the
people in this city have increased nearly
a quarter OF a million dollars. but that
the outside hanks that Go business
through tho local banks have greatly
drawn on the accounts here and this
makes the decrease so noticeable
The merchants here have also drawn
largely on their accounts TO make pay
ment on holiday goods purchased and
also tn their spring stock. One of the
bank officials stated yesterday that this
was the time of year when drafts are
fying around all over the country thick
enough to cover the earth He stated
that the great holiday trade made big
gains in amounts deposited but along
about Che first of FEBRUARY the merch-
ants began making ont drafts in payment
of their stock and this viii continue I'M

part of the goods viii have been paid for
and that this applied TO the spring trade.
Many of the merchants pay cash FOR their

but that was only the beginning OF Ell
the arrangements that had to be made
In order that none OF their iron bound
rules of caste" should be Violated.
First. a whole apartment house had to
be taken in order 10 accommodate the
staff Of 100 servants forming the Maha-
rajah's suite, and several weeks and a
lot Of money was spent in fitting 1t up
as nearly as possible like q Hindu pal
ace. 4 sort of chapel also had to be
provided for the potentate's family god
which. on the way from Southampton to
London. occupied special compartment
with two native servants to attend it.
According to the queer laws Of caste.
1t is just as necessary that food should
be cooked in exactly such a way. and
by exactly such person, as 1t is that
1t should be exactly such a sort OF food
So, in the Maharajah's London head
quarters, native cooking stoves made of
bricks were put up. In these fires of
charcoal cooked the seasoned rice and
curries which are the principal diet OF
the high caste Hindu. All the -four used
was ground by hand. just as il might
have been 500 years ago.
The Maharajah orders his dinner every
day and has an unusual way OF doing II.
In the morning soon after breakfast the
head cook loads a silver tray. called A

food he has in the larder, and carries il

into a rite, and one that has to be per-
formed with the utmost privacy, too, If
It should happen that even the shadow
of possible low-caste intruder should
fall on food that was being prepared
fer an aristocrat it would be utterly
contaminated.
Even at the camps of the Indian
troops who were to have marched in the
royal progress, the place where the food
was cooked was surrounded by high
