SIAI1UN ACT INDORSED.
Brookland Citizens, Opposed Proceed
1ngs Instituted by Joseph Willard.

While the union station act Of Congress
has It's enemies among the citizens asso-
cations of the District of Columbia others
are strong partisans Of the enactment, and
do not hesitate to come forward in it's de-
Tense whenever it is attacked This fact
was demonstrated last evening at the Oc-
'tcber meeting of the Brookland Citizens
Association, when DR.. A. Patton, after
speaking at length Of the improvements
that would eventually follow the carrying
out of the project. offered the following
resolution. which was unanimously adopted
|. Resolved, That the Brookland Citizens
Association is heartily in favor of the
! union station act. and is opposed to the
action of Josiah Willard in his endeavors
to retard and delay this great Improvement
by bringing a suit in the Supreme Court
OF the District to test the legality of this
act of Congress.
President A. f. Kinnan, who is a native
of the state of Michigan. spoke of his ac-
quaintance with Senator Mcmillan and
stated that it was cherished wish Of the
senator to do something for the national
capital. The speaker declared it was due to
Mr.. McMillan's efforts that the union sta
ton was to become reality, and concluded
his talk by saying. Il think that the as
sociation should come out fat-footed and
announce Its Endorsement of this improve
ment.
mittee appointed at the first meeting of the
season to consider the feasibility of ap-
preaching the City and Suburban Railroad
Company with the request that they should
extend their street car tracks across the
Baltimore and Ohio tracks at Brookland
and run the cars into the suburb; that as it
would not be possible in the present stage
of the Baltimore and Ohio improvements
to fix the grades of the street which will
cross the tracks. it had been decided to drop
the matter for the present.
Messrs A. F. Kinnan. J. l.. Sherwood, F.
jackson. f. Southail and Drs. M. J. Holmes
and T. V. Hall were appointed committee
by the meeting to make arrangements for
dedicatory exercises appropriate to the
opening of the new addition to the Brook

vember 1.
1t was stated that a committee had called
upon Superintendent Stuart of the public
schools to urge upon him the necessity of
renting the town hall for use as a public
school until the improvements upon the
school building were completed. This ac-
ton has been taken by the board of educa-
ton.
A resolution was offered by DR.. Patton
calling ON the Commissioners to make i'm
provements in the suburbs.

LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

Monday next, the International Banking
Corporation will open a branch at 1415 G
street. under the management of Mr.. j. s.
TAFT of the New York office. 1t Is the in
tention to do general banking business,
making a speciality Of foreign exchange. for
which it has desirable facilities, owing to
It's agencies throughout Europe and the
east.
Locally 1t win do general banking bust
ness. with special provision for women GUS
toners.
The general condition of the local money
market is a matter OF a good deal of salts
faction, especially when comparisons are
made with conditions in other cities. High
rates of interest prevail elsewhere, even on
time loans, and per cent money is gladly
taken. Here, however the rate has not
gone beyond per cent.
A cause of uncertainty elsewhere is the
depressed values of what are known as in
dustI1al securities, but here the banks are
remarkably free from that class of stocks.
The loans are well secured. While. owing
to the state of the money market loans are
at present rather restricted in amount. yet
1t is not because OF the lack Of available
cash in the banks. There is an abundance of
money. and IL those in charge OF local
financial Institutions awaited themselves of
the opportunities to lend money elsewhere
at the prevailing high rate of interest they
could easily place all the funds they could
command.

no pains will be spared in producing
the richest fruit to delight the pal

months prospecting of the Tonopah
district fully conviuces him that the
richness and extent of its mineral
bodies will last long enough to grow
an orchard and give it's owner time
to make a fortune from it in the
markets of this new Ell Dorado. The
first load OF shade trees will be here
in a day or two. The trees are of

Governor Sparks has issued a
proclamation designating Friday, the
oath day of April, 1903, as arbor
day, recommending that the day be
observed according to the spirit OF
the law. He expresses the "hope
thatevery school house in the state
will be opened, and that the teachers
therein will instruct their pupils con-
corning the Importance of planting
and culture of trees, shrubs and
vines, and explain to them the beauty
of nature exemplifed in providing
comfort and happiness to the inhab-
itants of the earth by such means.
Wherever trees grow birds make
their home, grass comes forth and
flowers bloom. The adornment of
homes in such manner in our arid
state viii be a contrast inviting to
the stranger, and afford comforts to
our own people and result in great
advantage to the State" Asa

They can be brought back if due care
is taken and those that remain are
