Decision Different Than Supposed

Decision Different Than Supposed.
 Later information is to the effect that the Supreme Court decision upon the Byram river case was different than vas supposed. It was believed to have settled the principle that the waters of river rising in one state and flowing 'nto another can be diverted for the ad- vantage of the first state; but as a matter of fact the question of the diver ion of interstate streams has yet to be decided.
 AS a matter of fact, the court decided in favor of the city of New York in this case because it was held that the two Connecticut farG CTS who obtained the original injunction waited until the city had spent $l 800. 900 on buildings, dams. tc., and that they could not take ad : vantage now of legal right to perpet- nal injunction they might have enjoyed at first. It is case of what the law. yers call "laches."
 The question of the diversion of in. terstate streams touches upon New York city's right to divert the waters of Ten Mile river up near Dover, N. Y The watershed there is peculiar. It is very low. By cutting away very few feet. Ten Mile river, which flows into the Housatonic, could be diverted to flow into the Croton basin. It was the plan of the city to make this cut which could have been done at very little r,ost.-New Milford Gazette.

OF protruding and bleeding piles should be

THEY PREFER THE INTEREST
Wichita Banks VIII Not Accept the
GOVernmenf,r. Offer

The national banks Of this city have
been notified by the secretary Of the
treasury that they can secure prerays
ment on their bonds on deposit OF tAs
interest UP to July ], 1896. by discou15fag
the proponents two-tenths Of per cent
a month.
The cashiers Of two of the big national
hanks here were seen yesterday and
when asked in regard 10 the prepayment
they said that they would not take ad-
vantage Of the generosity Of the govern
nnent for the simple reason that two
tenths Of cent per month was 4-10
FER cent for the year. and that they
would rather have the interest than the
money. They have all the money and
more than they want for legitimate pur-
poses and they would let the government
keep it and pay the whole interest.
This condition shows two things. First.
that the national banks Of this city have
plenty OF money ana. secondly. that gilt
edged security viii get cheap money in
Wichita. 1t shows that these banks are
conservative and that they would rather
have their money ont on uRquestionable
security like government bonds than to
loan on securities not so good at a high
er rate. 1t is just such conservatism
that makes banks safe and sound.
Some people talk of monetary crises
as if by some magic the money was
taken out Of the country. but that does
not follow. There is just as much money
in the country during hard times as
good times and the man who has the
good security can always get money. It
is the depreciation of the securities that
makes money hard to get and that is one
reason that wise ananciers would rather
run bank in a new country than an
older one. All securities which are Ill
timately based on real estate values not
inflated are increasing in value IN the
new country and depTeciating in the
older countries.
a New England banker who recently
visited this city said that he would make
Kansas farm loans, but would not make
any in his own state for the reason that
land was increasing in value in Kansas
and was depreciating IN his own state.
It is the good securities that have placed
Kansas on the firm financial rock against
which storms may beat in vain.
