INCA BROUGHT
IN TONS OF SAL 7
Which was Saved From
the Wrecked Schooner
Thos. Parker
OVER 100 TONS IN THE CARGO
The Schooner Went Ashore off Wolff
Island Several Days Ago and Will
Probably be Total Loss-sav.
ing Crew now at Work.

The tug Inca arrived in port Friday
night about 10 o'clock with a large
lighter in tow, loaded to it's full capac-
ity with salt in bags and barrels.
This salt, in all between 100 and
$50 tons, was taken from the wrecked
schooner Thos. G. Parker, which went
on the shoals off Wolff island several
days ago and was wrecked.
The Inca, with the large lighter
and force of men, has been at the
scene of the wreck for day or two,
and returned to port Friday night with
this cargo of salt.
A large gang of laborers were at
work at the Mallory wharf yesterday
unloading the salt, transferring it from
the lighter to box cars.
. The schooner, it is understood, is
in rather a bad condition but efforts
are now being made to sve her and
they ny prove successful. She was
bound from Philadelphia to Savannah.
The salt which was saved by the In
ca, will probably be sold by the in
surance company in bulk, but the own
.ers of the Inca will receive a neat
sum for sa aYing it. There was probably
slldsas sthe cargo to make savan-
" y ;salt water port.s...Ther salt
1Ree. 3 wniio there wSs
probably fifty lor a hundred barrels.
Just how much was in the cargo
is not known, but it is estimated that
there is over 100 tons.

NATIONAL BANKS
GOOD STATEMENT

Past 1onths
is THE BEST IN IT'S HISTORY
Yearly Statement of the Sank Slows
That it is in a Most FIourisnina
Conditon--Some OF the Ex-
ceIient Fig res.

With the closing of the year 1908
the National Bank of Brunswick has
come forward with one of the most
magnificent statements ever made by
any banking concerns in the city of
Brunswick. The statement in uues-
ton shows that this we'll known in
stitution is in thoroughly flourishing
condition and is very distinctive ev-
idence of the fact that its officers are
energetic and progressive bus
iness men.
According to this statement. which
lis dated December 81, 1903 it is shown
that the National Bank of Brunswick
has liability of $475,477,0S deposits
subject to check; in other words it
only lacks less than $4,000 of having
deposits aggregating half million.
Another strong feature on the side
of the resources of the statement, is
a fact that there is reported as cash
in exchange $196,15 an unusually
strong showing. The loans and dis
counts is also a record breaker, foot
ing up $4S0,525.90, a few thousand dol
lars less than the total deposits.

own self in thee s+--tt- surplus and

The News congratulates the officers
and directors of the National Bank
on this magnificent showing; it con-
graduates the people of Brunswick
that there is within the confines of
the city financial institution which
to all intents and purposes is a ma.
moth success and enjoys in the full
est measure the confidence of the peo-
pie.
