Business Coed.

The manner Ia which business holds
up ia Hickman. especially in the dull

on the streets last Saturday reminded
one OF the Fonrth of July, and the
amount of business that was done was
more that satisfactory The/reiiability

Before Leaving, Secretary

LAST OF CANAL PAYMENTS
Working Balance in Treasury Kept to
Traditional Figure of s5o,ooo,ooo.
Dropped But Once.

Secretary Shaw left this morning for
Iowa, to attend the State convention.
which convenes on May IS. Altogether
he win be absent between a week or ten
days.
While he viii have much. naturally. 10
do with shaping the lIo-Icies OF the con-
vention, and VIII undoubtedly be called
upon TO address the convention, he Will
make but one formal address, so far as
now is known. that being the night be-
fore the convention. to the Republican
club OF Des Moines.
Begore leaving Secretary Shaw order
cd a third call on the depository banks,
directing them TO transfer TO the Treas
ury, on or before May 3, approximately
$l0.eoQ.0o0.
Today's call is for 10 per cent OF the
authorized balances OF the depository
banks as they stood before the two
previous calls. With a few exceptions.
the call is made upon ali banks whose
authorized balances before the previous
calls was $4,000 or more. Banks hav-
ing active accounts, whose balances
have been reduced by previous calls to
a point as low as the convenience of the
Treasury In transacting public business
viii permit, are exempted from the oper,
alton OF today's cali This call was
scheduled TO become effective June ].
This is the concluding chapter in the
Panama payments. BY this move the
working balance IS kept up 10 the tradi-
tional figure Of S59.00O.G00 On the 10th
because the big warrant OF 81. gJQ.0}C
was outstanding, and the credits did
not show Up until the next day. the
working balance was apparently down
to something like Sll 600. coo The amount
in the general fund was $40. go. SIG 50,
while the obligations amounted 70
$I29. $50. 59055
II is explained. however. that these
Treasury figures are an inaccurate guide
TO the amount Of cash available There
IS still some 500 10000 Of Government
funds In the banks used as repositories
All OF which Is subject 10 check. and
should be estimated ia the casting up Of
the working balance just as banks and
trust companies always include their
sums subject 10 check as cash on hand
though as matter Of fact the cash
actually IN their vaults may not amount
10 l per cent of this SUM.
