must obey him in all things so long
as he lived.
Leeper was bent and crippled with

TO HAVE LONDON BANK.
Reported That the Standard Oil Group
Will Purchase an Old
Institution.

New York, Aug. 10-The National Cit!
bank, the most important of banking
institutions allied with the Standard
Oil interests, according to reports cur
rent in local banking circles today, is
negotiating for the purchase of one of
the London banks. with the purpose of
extending its facilities for handling
foreign business. James Stillman,
president Of the National City bank.
II himself n of the most active OF
the Standard Oil group of financicrs,
is now in Europe. According to re-
ports, it is Mr.. Stillman who has been
engaged in the task of obtaining con-
troll of a bank in London. Con1irma.
ton of the report could not be had at
the National City bank, where it was
said by one of the vice presidents that
nothing Is known here of such action
on the part of Mr.. Stillman. 1t is
most likely, in fact, that such a plan
woul not be carried out by the bank
itself, but through %financiers working
in cooperation With it. as Is usual in
such cases.
The Rational City bank has been
making heavy r~emlttances to London
recently. On Friday last it arranged
to send abroad so, 800. 900 in gold. This
is taken as partly confirming the report
of the purchase of a banking institu-
ton in London, 1t being inferred that
these remittances are for the purpose
of making payment for hat bank.

the fugitive stopped and surrendered. He
