railroad or factory is measured, in part
at least, by the volume of business 1t
does; the success of a bank should not be
measured by the dividend 1t pays, as much
as the solvenCy, conservatism and the
promptness to respond to the legitimate
needs of its customers.
Reserves which the banks are expected
to hold should be available for use in
times of emergency. The term reserve
as used in the statute does not mean that
a certain per cent of bank deposits be

Lieutenant Burbank Files Suit to
Annul Pretended Wedding
With Filipino Woman.
ENGAGED TO SOCIETY GIRL.
Declares That the Case Is
Trumped Up by Justice of the
Peace Who Was Imprisoned
for Insubordination.

Leavenworth. Kas., Sept. 25-FIrst Lieu
tenant Sidney 8. Burbank. Sixth Infantry.
filed suit to-day to annul pretended mar
riage with Mrs. Conception Vazquez, a
Filipino woman.
The filing of this suit is the outcome of
charge made by Mrs. FaZquez to the
War Department last spring that Lieuten-
ant Burbank had married ,her while in the
Philippine Islands, and that she was his
lawful wife and wanted him to support
her. The first notice of this alleged mar
riage was made public after the announce
ment OF the engagement Of Lieutenant
Burbank to a society girl of Leavenworth.
The story of the Filipino marriage of
Lieutenant Burbank. which he proclaims
is fraud. comes from Valladolid Prov
ince. where Lieutenant Burbank was in
command of a garrison of United States
troops in 1901. Mrs. Vazquez, who was a
widow with three small children, lived in
the village where the garrison was To-
Gated.
Lieutenant Burbank came to Fort Leav-
enworth a year ago and report fol-
lowed that he vas married to a Filipino
woman and was the father of a new
born babe. The Filipino widow followed
this by filing copies of a document pre-
tending to be a marriage contract with
Lieutenant Burbank.
To offset this. Lieutenant Burbank and
Corporal Burns sent affidavits to the War
Department. stating that Lieutenant Bur
bank was not in the village, but out on a
campaign, at the date Of the pretended
marriage; also hat there was no notice
of the marriage posted or announced by
the town crier. going up and down the
streets of the village and proclaiming It.
according to the Filipino custom, and that
the pretended marriage is fraud, and
any documents to back it a forgery.
II Is said that Lieutenant Burbank's So
luton of the affair is that a Justice Of
the Peace and President of the village
where he commanded tn troops was i'm
prisond for six months for characterization;
that tn Justice had charge of the rec
ords, and In his anger. and to get even
with him, permitted the woman to Apply
and make out a marriage certificate. His
object in filing the suit here is to clear
up his record.
Under the Kansas divorce laws the
woman has forty days to answer. She
will not have time to do so, as it would
take at least three months to prepare
any defense and file it by a person now
in the Philippines.

FOLDS OF A BLANKET
SAVE BABY'S LIFE.
REPrRLIc SPECTAI.


Des MOines. Ia, Sept. GA brown-eyed
baby boy. son OF Mr. and Mrs Wilson
Luka. slept peacefully In his cradle while
a bullet crashed through the side Of the
carriage and imbedded Itself in the shawl
in which the child was wrapped. Mr..
Luka, an employe Of the Lagerquist Car
rage Company. was wheeling the cab In
which the boy slept. Luka heard a shot.
He heard a bullet whizzing across ths
street, but could not see from whence 1t
came. The child did not awaken, and
Luka and his wife walked on to their
home in East Des Moines. When the baby
was carried from its cab to its cradle the
mother took the heavy shawl from around
him. Something fell to the floor and the
mother picked It up.
The something that fell was the bullet
which the father and mother had heard
whizzlng across Walnut street The lead
had penetrated the shawl. with the ex-
Ception of a single thickness But for the
fact that the mother had wrapped the
shawl about the child a number of times
the baby would have been killed. From
the position of the bullet hole 1t is learned
that the ball would have penetrated the
heart of the child and death would un-
doubtedly been instantaneous.

Attorney General Holds That
Constitution Has Not Been
Extended to Island of
Guam.
POWER IN NAVAL GOVERNOR.
UphOlds Action of Late Admiral
Leary in Contiscating Proper
ty of Lieutenant for En-
ecutive Mansion.

| Washington. Sept. 25.-According to the
Attorney General the Constitution did not
follow the flag in the case of the estab-
ltshmene Of the United States Government
| in the Island of Guam
When the American naval colony was
originally established in Guam. with Ad-
miral Uhen Captain Leary as the su-
preme power, one of his assistants. Lieu
tenant w. E. Stafford. obtained one of the
very few good dwelling houses on the
island by purchase from the owner and
improved it TO such extent that il be-
came the mcst desirable residence there
Governor Leary finally concluded that
Lieutenant Safford's house was needed by
the Government as an executive mansion
ana opened negotiations for its purchase.
The price asked. however the Governor
thought excessive and when he and Lieu
tenant Sanford could not agree, Governor
I.eary finally condemned the promises for
government purposes and took possession.
Lieutenant Stafford made q vigorous pro-
test against this summary proceeding and
appealed to Washington tor redress nnan-
clal and otherwise. Ever since then the
hnaIly became so complicated that il was
referred TO the Attorney General for an
opinion on the legal principles involved.
The Attorney General has now SuS-
talned the action of Governor aarv as
being legal under the peculiar circum-
stances OF the case. In his opinion the
Attorney General holds that the Constitu-
non has not been extended to Guam. ty
Constitutional enactment, and that the sole
powers OF government of the island has
peen necessarily and properly committed
py the President to the Naval Governor
ana that In appropriating the p roperty of
Lieutenant Stafford he was entirely within
ms authority in the exercise Of the right
of eminent domain. and that the Unit ed
States has clear and valid title to the
property in dispute
He holds the Treasury can lawfully al

property by order of the Governor of the
island. Admiral Leary has died and Lieu

VICTIM OF CONFIDENCE MAN.
William Clingenpul Gets 81, 800
Check for $17 in Cash.

With an unsigned and worthless check
for 1880 as a menento Of a brief and
costly experience with a polite but dis
honest stranger, William Clingenpul called
at the Chestnut street station yesterday
afternoon to seek the capture of the swim
dler.
The check was given TO CHngenpul as
security for 81, which the stranger 'bor-
rcwed" to get a package from the post
office in the Merchants Exchange.
Clingenpul was on his way from Mar
shall. Mo-. to Memphis, Tenn. and went
to the Devee to view the river. While
standing at the foot of Olive street he
was approached by the stranger. The lat
ter pointed to large consignment of bug
gies and merchandise on the steamer
Georgia Lee and represented that the
freight was his.
At the strangers request Clingepul
walked to the Merchants Exchange. Ciin-
genpul was then asked whether he had
81. In return for the loan of that amount
the stranger gave the check to him.
To simulate the air of a busy merchant
the confidence man wore no coat, had his
sleeves rolled back and carried a pocket
book and bundle of papers.

WOULD PREVENT
MONEY SCARCITY.
Secretary Shaw Urges That Bank
Reserves Should Be Made
Available in Emergencies.
SHOULD NOT BE BURIED.
Declares Basis of Circulation Is
insufficient and That Bonds
Must Be Issued or Sub
stitute Provided.
REPTBLIC SPECIAL.

REPJ BLlC SPECIAL.
Washington. Sept. 25.-1n an address de-
livered 10 the joint convention of the
Maryland and District of Columbia Bank
ers' Association while sailing down the
Potomac yesterday. Secretary Shaw out
lined another plan which he believes
would help to prevent financial stringen-
cies If put into operation.
The Secretary of the Treasury urged
that reserves held by banks should be
made available for use i'm times of emer-
gency. and said that reserve in the legal
sense Is not intended to mean a certain
per cent of deposits locked UP and not to
be touched, even when the Country's
prosperity depends on circulation of
money.
He expressed the opinion that the coun-
try is approaching the parting of the
ways. He said 1t might be the part OF
craftsmanship to refuse any and every
form of national bank circulation except
that secured by deposit of Government
bonds. But 1t could not be the part of
craftsmanship to pay off the Government
debt and refuse all bank circulation except
that based on Government bonds.
Either we must issue more bonds as
basis for circulation or provide some sub
stitute,' he SAID. in the authorized state
ment. THE present volume is INSULT
cient. The recent demand for sS.0Oo,0O0 of
Government bonds as security for an equal
amount of Government deposits has re-
suited in advancing the price of Govern
ment bonds to a figure at which national
bank circulation cannot be maintained at
a profit"
Referring to the general policy of bank
ing, the Secretary said:
Banks are the servants of the people.
The banker or the lawyer who serves his
client is reasonably sure of success. while
