many advocates today, and a bill is now
pending in Congress to permit national as

of one-third of their paid-in capital and

An Instance Cited.

In discussing the Lewis bill, which adj

country to accept real estate security for
loans. and on which the House committee
on banking and currency has authorized a
favorable report, Mr.. d. p. Kane deputy
controller of the currency, said to a Star

THE power conferred upon trust COM
paniess and savings banks 10 make loans
upon the security of real estate mortgages
is another source of competition with which
national banks have to contend and, while
the national bank act prohibits national as
sociations from making loans on such Sc
curity, there is growing tendency in some
sections TO ignore this restriction or to
evade the law by indirect methods. This is
particularly true of localities where mort
gage loans are the principal security dealt
in by savings and other banks organized
under state authority.

Theatres Will Be Safer.

This Chicago theatre catastrophe will cost the theatrical managers hundreds of thousands of dollars before the end of this season." said travelling man yesterday. People will not recover from the shock for weeks to come and many will be afraid to go to the theatres for the next few weeks.
 "Of course this is foolish on the part of the people. For instance they do not stop travelling on account of a railroad wreck, they do not stop crossing the ocean because a ship is lost at sea, or they do not stop many other things on account of great losses of life. But there was a suddenness and a strangeness about this fatality which has struck the people more forcibly than usual. know an entire family who would not go to the theatre Thursday night because they were afraid of fires.
 While the fire at the Iroquois in Chi cago has caused a great financial loss as we'll as loss of life 1t will result ir the public being much better protected In the future. Many theatres will order asbestos curtains and will cut new exits. Others will make better arrangements for protecting the theatres against fires, and also to prevent fires spreading"
