WHOLE hog OR NONE.
South Park People Resolve
About Street Cars.

Meeting Is Held Last Night and tn,
Matter Is Locked Into to Some Ex
tent-what They Have to say Abou,
the Proposed Plan Of the Union
Utility Company.
From Thursdays Daily.
A large and enthusiastic meeting
of South Park people was held last
night to consider the matter Of q
proposed street car line into that
section. As no hall over there was
large enough for all to meet together
and as the ladies wanted to have
their say, they adjourned to another
meeting aud passed resolutions of
their own.
What precipitated the meeting at
this time was the recent announce
ment that the Union Utility compa-
ny intended to build their railway to
Euclid avenue and no farther up
the hill
This was a surprise to the people
of that section. They are entirely
harmonious and unanimous in the
desire to have the street railway
extended to the top of the hill, or al
least up to where it will be easily
accessible to a great majority of the
people. But they strenously object
ed to walking half way over the
stcepest part OF the route tor the
privilege of riding the other half.
They go as far as to say that they
will use the street cars little or
none, unless the line is extended
farther up the hill tan Euclid ave
nue..
The following are the resolutions
passed unanimously, and presented
TO the South Park company, so that
1t may know their attitude 10 The
matter before any contract is made
for extending the electricity or
street car track into the Park:
'Resoived, That we regret that
the Union Utility company finds it
necessary to make to make such an
offer tor street car service in South
Park as was recently submitted by
said company.
Furthermore, that a street car
service on Enclid avenue would be
so inconvenient that we and our
families could make but little o. no
use of it. In fact, the proposition
seems at such variance from the
former liberal policy of the Union
Utility company, that we are inclin-
ed to regard it as huge joke.
1--WE think no sane man would
want to pay nickle to ride across
the bridge for the privilege of walk
ing half mile up the hill. So in
would it be to us that
the company cannot expect Us to pat
ronizo either its cars or its electric
ity.
1--WE heartily endorse the action
of the South Park company in this
matter"
Similar resolutions, only more so,
we're passed by the ladies at their
meeting. While desiring to have
the street car service up the hill,
hill, they would not think of
walking to Euclid avenue for the
privilege OF riding the rest OF the
way, but declare their intention, in
that event, to continue to patronize
the faithful and accommodating
South Park bus.

BANK CLOSES DOORS
Big Pittsburg Concern has
Asked for Receiver.
OfIicers Of the Bank say They can pay
two Dollars for one-Other Banks
Refuse to aid Institution when It
was Subjected to run.

1 49, 1917 ~tN>@ w - 1as
From Wednesdays Daily.
The directors OF the Federal Nation
al bank, OF Pittsburg, after being in
session nearly all day on Tuesday,
found that they could not withstand
the demands on the bank, and decieed
to ask for aid from other local banks
and bankers. This, in almost every
it was said last night. was
refused. The clearing house commit
tee was in session several times yester-
day, and 1t was decided that no assis-
lance could be given the Federal Nd
tional.
At last midnight the Federal Ma
tional directors discovered that after
a thorough canvass of the local banks
and bankers they would be unable to
get any assistance, and upon reliable
authority it was stated that resolu-
ton was then passed to ask the comp
troller OF the currency to appoint
receiver for the bank 1t was expected
that this morning a message will be
sent to the comptroller to this effect.
Yesterday between $500, 900 and
$500, 600, it was stated, was drawn
from the institution by depositors,
and banks 10 Pennsylvania, Ohio,
West Virginia and elsewhere. The
deposits yesterday were small.
Most OF the money withdrawn yes
terday was by banks for which the
Federal National was acting as reserve
agent. An ppesl was made to the
clearing house committee for assist
ance, and before noon the committee
was In session. The decision that no
help could be given the banl YVES not
reached by the committee until late
last evening. The Federal National
bank is said to have secured some aid
from the First National bank OF Al
legheny yesterday, and the latter in
stitution took care OF $780, worth
of clearings for the Federal bank.
Officers of Morgantowp banks say
that the failure will have no effect
whatever in local circles. None OF
the Morgantown banks had any BUSH
ness with the concern except the Fed
eral Trust cmpany. The Pittsburg
people do not owe anything to this
concern but the Federal people owe
small over draft to Pittsburg. 1t is
also stated that information has been
received from Pittsburg to the effect
that the closed bank will be able to
pay two dollars for one when they
realize their holdings.
Further news was received this
afternoon from two OF the most con-
servative banking institutions Ia the
city say that there is no more trouble
anticipated. The clearing house has
agreed to protect all banks 10 the city.
A ticker dispatch received at three
O'Clock this afternoon says that the
First National Bank of Allegheny has
failed. This is unconfirmed.

The regular meeting of the city

The session was absolutely featureless.
All the members were present except

The council Is at last going to see
that the much cussed and discussed
hole in the sidewalk in front of Prof.

people TO believe this until they see its
but nevertheless it has the ear-mark,
of probability.
Pursuant to resolution offered by
Recorder Sisler, committee consist

Breakjron, was appointed to confer
with Prof. Stewart, and to End out
what can be done in regard to raising
the sidewalk TO the proper level. II

A petition signed by about 35 citi-
zens praying for the opening of Nc
Lane Avenue, from University Drive
way, Fourth Ward, to Third Street,
was presented. This along with the
estimates and grades submitted by the
city engineer was referred to the street
committee.
A six inch sanitary sewer was or
dered laid on the lower side OF McLane
