Charter Oak Times.
! Denison was defeated in nicely con-
tested game of base ball on the Charter
diamond Sunday, the score being 9 to
Is. Owing to the high wind and newly
skinned diamond'thef field was somewhat
of a tough proposition and errors were
numerous on both sides. The game
stood to in favor of Denison at the
beginning of the 9th inning when there
was block ball and three men trotted
home while Denison was talking over
the rules. Taking all things into con.
sideration it was q very good game,
and lost by little hard luck. Robin
ault played 2ud, iKelly's fielding aver
age is at present 1000 percent.

Bank OF this city, sounded note Of warn
ing that good times are likely to come to

Bankers Association at Raudenboush Hall
to-day, in welcoming the members, he said:
There never was better time for bank
ers to look little out than now.
I'VE can see as others cannot the ear
marks and signs Of financial trouble, When
was in Chicago short time ago l learned
that the country bank balances at that point
had decreased Sl0.000OOO. All the city
banks make similar reports of their country
correspondents. The banks Of Iowa, for
example, are treading on dangerous ground,
The majority of the country banks in this
State are tied up for money and their bal
ances are lower than for a long time.
Many bankers have been carried away
by the idea of property and have invested
and specialized until they wish they had
not done So Hardly a day passes in this
city but we learn of some country bank in
trouble. Several have closed their doors
in the last three or four months, and others
are waking up to the danger of being COM
Dellpd to close.

MUST OBEY LATIN BISHOPS.
Greek Catholic Priests subject 10 Roman
Discipline. a Giyil Court Decides.

SCRANTON, Pa, July An important
opinion, handed down by Judge Edwards
in the local courts here to-day decides that
the Greek Catholic priests of the United
States are subject to the discipline of the
Latin Bishops while here. The case arose
from the accommodation of the Rev John
j. Arian of the Greek Catholic Church of
ELEPHANT, Pa.
Father Ardan made an infammatory adj
dress over the assassination of President
Mckinley He also wrote requesting the
withdra wal of the faculties which he had re-
ccived from Bishop H0ban of the Scranton
diocese. For these matters, as well as for
other breaches of discipline, ArCan was
accommodated and so was the church
when he went on holding services.
Later an injunction was obtained by GER
tain members of the church restraining
Ardan from acting as pastor. which the
court now upholds on the ground that the
Bishops of the Greek Church in Europe
had directed their priests to subject them
selves to the discipline of the Latin Bishops
when in America, there being no Greek
Church Bishops in this country.

D'TOOLE REMOVED.
Mount NerDOn'S Commissioner OF Public
Works Accused OF MaVrensancc

MOUNT VERNON, n. Y, July THE Com
mon Council, at a meeting held tonight, by
n vote of 8 to removed Commissioner of
Public Works John O'Toole from Office
under charges OF malfeasance and non
feasance.
The charges were preferred by a com
mittee against him several weeks ago in
connection with the grading and other
wise improving OF Bedford avenue by Bart
Dunn, the New York contractor, who is
said to be brother Of ex-Sheriff Dunn
The committee which was appointed by
the Common Council alleged that the en-
gineer's report on which the contractor
was paid exceeded by nearly 200 per cent
the cost of the work actually done.
Several hearings were given and while
the evidence showed that the engineer
had made serious errors OF omission or
commissionl there was nothing really
adduced connecting 0ttole personally with
the alleged job and consequently the action
of the Common Council tonight came as
surprise to the general public
OToole is a Democrat, appointed four
years ago by Mayor Fislse, while the Com
mon Council IN Republican by majority Of
0. O'Toole said tonight that he would
probably carry the case into the.courts.
