what the condition of the banks af- fairs. but I have been told that they are in very bad way. What its assets and liabilities are I cannot say.
 The bank has been in existence for over fourteen years and all during that time t has been perfectly good and safe I have been connected with it since 1900, when I became in terested with it in the capacity which I held in Nogales for about two years bank and moved from there in 1902. That was the last that I had to do with the active management of the banh's ahaIrs.
 From the time that I left the ter ritory in 1902 I have not been back until last December and in all that tune l do not think that l have ever seen statement of the banks affairs. l never thought that it was necessary as the bank has always been con sidered as good as gold, and even last December when I was there there was not a whisper as to it's stability.
 'T think that when the matter is thoroughly investigated it mn be found that the failure is a legitimate one ana Tha, we who have neen placed under this ban are the victims of scme malicious persons or some of the depositors who haze been too easily and unnecessarily suspicious. Ju ge Ba nes, my altorney, knew that was coming. I wired to him the day that Ieit New York and I have kept him ;rfoi med of my movements ever since.

 r. Lewis' chief concern last night seemed 10 be that the matter must get into he papers. Of his ultimate release he seemed confident, but he did not like to have his name dragged through the papers, as he expressed it."

4 Business LenEue's Plan For sccDr-
 ing Desirable Residents.

A business league recently organ ized in a Maine town is doing much to build up the community. This league believes in advertising and not only uses the columns of the local pa pers for thls purpose. but is now issu- slg an inexpensive but interesting folder giving some facts about the town. These folders are distributed as widely as possible. and if the plan is energetically followed up it ought to bring good results. Besides this. the league goes in for anything and every thing that will improve the town and make it better place to live in.
 The circular issued by the league says that at this time there is not a single inhabitant sick in bed. and the large orphan asylum located there has not had death in ten years. The good points about the town are clearly and conyincingly stated. The circular gives the name of the chairman of the league and states that he will be glad to correspond with any one interested.

It is governed by an emper- ior. and is nominally independent, but for ten years struggle has been in progress between the Japanese and Russians as to who shall be the real master of it. The Japanese have the right of maintaining force of 1000 men to protect the telegraphs there. which are their property. The Rus sians have obtained concessions in the north. on the banks Of the Yalu, and are reported to have fortified Yon- gampho.
 The strategic importance of Korea is great The country is only 115 miles from Japan: from it Japan draws a great part Of her food supply, and to it she sencs her surplus popu- lation.

4 Larue Amount Of Valuable Infornna a. ton Boiled Down-korsa Is the
 Real Bone Of Contention on Account Of Strategic Position and Importance

The area of the Russian empire, in Icluding Manchuria, is 9,020,O00 square miles. so. that it comes next to the British empire in extent among the great powers. The population is 135, GOO 900, including Manchuria. The revenue is POT 100000 pounds, and the expenditure the same. There are large reserve funds in the treasury, on paper, at all events, total ling about 50.000, ,eOay pounds. while the sum of 92.0G0 000, is kept in gold in the state bank. The treasure of the church. which is said to be worth f00.. ,000.G pounds or even more. could be utilized in any great national ener- gency.
 The area of Japan. is 160.000 square miles. including Formosa, or one third larger than the the area of the United Kingdom. Her population is greater than that of the United King dcm. standing at 45,000,000 in 1900, and is increasing at the rate of 5OO,- 600 annually Her revenue and ex- pentiture are each 27 300.

Armies.

The Russian army is recruited by compulsory service, and on & war footing can dispose of 5,G0O,090 trained men. But only small part of this army is available in the far east. since the question of supplies has to be kept in mind. The war strength If the Russian army in Asia l is 25S,000 men, Tn the far east the Russians are believed to have a force of about 100000 men, 10000 of whom are Cossacks, or mounted infantry. Tn Port Arthur is a garrison of 39.- 900 men. The army under Admiral Alexieff can be reinforced from EI- rope by the Siberian railway at the rate of about 4,000 men per day, but ! it is not certain that such 6 rate could be long maintained. Two army corps are stated to be on their way f from European Russia to the far east, and their strength may be taken to- gether at 6S.000 men.
 The Japanese army has a total strength of 500. 900 trained men. of whom 252.000 meE with 79S guns form the field army, organized in thir- teen divisions. It is recruited by compulsory service. Its great weak ness lies n the paucity of it's cavalry, as this arm only numbers seventeen regiments and 10000 men This weak ness is compensated to some extent by the extraordinary marching power and mobility of the infantry.

Mr.. Delaney's Speech.
The last address of the day was made
by Mr. John ]. Delaney. Mr.. Delaney is
the corporation counsel of the city of New
York, ard is regarded one of the fore
most orators of the metropolis He referred
to the loyalty of the Catholic people in
America and declared that the presenta-
ton of the fund for the benefit of the uni
versity and its students. was an evidence
of this loyalty to the church and the pom
tin. but 1T was also. he said. very clear
and positive Illustration of the patriotism
of the Americans in the church. Every
member of the order of knights of Column
bus, he said, was a patriotic American citi-
Zen as we'll true of the church
and IL was. a most significant thing that
this order. named for the man who dis
covered America. should have as Its great
work the establishment of a chair of his
tory. In conclusion. he said:
IF the day should ever come when the
church would frown on the organization
of the Knights of Columbus. We have VOW
ed solemnly to take sides with the church
against the organization. We rejoice that
our fathers have given us this faith. and
we shall hand Ii down to our children,
that they may love 1t. and IL necessary,
die for it,
At the conclusion OF Mr.. Delaney's ad-
dress Cardinal Gibbons pronounced the BEN
ediction and the entire assemblage sang the
TIE Deum.'
Last night the officers of the order were
entertained at dinner by the faculty of the
university and the ladies of the order were
rendered reception at the temple, sos q

Catholic element. must ever remain a blot
upon the pages of our history, and to come
down closer to our own day, witness the
know-nothing movement and the dfsbanding
Of Catholic regiments by the governors Of
our New England states, and at still later
period social and commercial combinations
too narrow and despicable for mention, di-
rected at the heart of Catholic interests.
We believe this presentation of 10000 to
the Catholic University of America for the
endowment of chair of American history
is but the beginning of the great struggle
for truth; that We, the Knights of Column
bus, faithful to church and state, repre-
senting the highest and best Catholic ele-
ment of the land, feel highly complimented
and deeply obligated to the reverend trus-
tees of the Catholic University for the privi-
lege of taking the initiative in so worthy a
cause. But we are like one in the darkness
seeking for light. who, uncertain how best
to find it, calls upon others more capable
than himself for assistance. We are seek
ing the truth about our country's history,
about the connection OF the Catholic church
Herewith, about the great influence of the
Catholic church In the making thereof; and,
not certain how best to attain to that end,
call upon your eminence and you, the most
reverend trustees Of the Catholic University.

mand and bid you in Gods name, go seek
out the truth and teach 1t to US, to our

The applause that greeted the speech of
Sir knight Hearn was only equaled by the
enthusiasm with which Cardinal Gibbons
was received as he rose to naake the speech
Of acceptance. Standing against the back

brilliant scarlet robes of his Office the car
