That he suggested to the Emperor
the adoption of severe measures is
equally false. Since the day of the
Blessing of the Neva, he has not seen
the sovereign. Moreover, the Gear left
everything to his Ministers and took
and asked no further advice from any
one.
The story Of the combination Of the
Grand Dukes who opposed the EN-
peror's peaceful ideas is false from one
end to the other. The Grand Duke
Vladimir has always been the friend
, Of the people, and has more than once
| expressed the opinion that something
ought to he done to relieve the position
Of the workingmen. No; the Grand
Duke Vladimir had nothing whatever
to do with the recent events. The
suggestions made concerning him are

untrue. but since have been at st.

of the imperial yacht, the Standard,
being in waiting, at Libaut. to take off
the imperial pair to Copenhagen is
! complete falsehood. The wonderful
trips of the Emperor. to Peterhof,

inventions. So also is the tale Of the

Captain W. s. Albright, who has re-.

office.
"a man of reputable standing with
5000 can easily organize $4,000 state
bank almost anywhere. The farmers
will furnish the rest Of the capital. In
fact, they will furnish all Of it if
necessary and give man who promotes
the enterprise the cashiership at a good
salary. Money is so plentiful that the
farmers seem to be itching to establish
small banks.
A young man came into the office
short time ago and said he wanted
to start bank in a little Kansas
town, continued the captain.

He said he did not have any. I asked

CENTRAL AVENUE
WORK NEAR END.
NEW PAVEMENT WILL SOON BE
COMPLETED.
Merchants Who Have Suffered Loss Of
Patronage While Street Has Been
Torn up Will Welcome End of Work
will Beautify the Avenue When
Pavement Is Laid.

Before another week is over Central
avenue. respondent with the new pave.
ment will be opened to traffic. Many
weeks have passed since the paving
was commenced, but the residents have
been satisfied to wait, with the expec-
tation that while it may have taken
much longer to pave the street than
time put into the work will finally re-
suit in the great benefit of a better
street. & as
Lower Central avenue is very nearly
finished The creosote blocks on the
southeast side Of the street are laid,
but have yet to receive their covering
of tar and sand. The other side Of
the street was finished several weeks
ago. ~
AS soon as the pavement is completed
there will be a general clean UP on the
avenue. The corner on which the new
building of the st. Anthony Falls bank
now stands will be fixed up as neat as
possible. The wide cement sidewalk
alongside the bank building is already
laid, and nearly all the scaffolds have
been removed. The debris and rubbish
removed when the street is opened up
for traffic, and Central avenue will be
one of the most handsome Of the East
Minneapolis downtown district. 81
During the week an army of work
men have been employed rushing the
work on upper Central avenue, and the
unsightliness of the street is disappear
ing. Work has reached the brick-laying
stage, and things will be in good shape
as far as Twenty fifth or Twenty sixth
avenue by Saturday. There has been
much discussion as to the delay in fin
ishing the avenue, and the business men
and merchants feel that the torn-up
condition Of Central has interfered with
business in no small degree. Bricks
have taken up the greater part Of the
sidewalks, and passage from and to the
streets has been rather difficult, for
driving purposes the street at certain
for weeks, and twill be with a sigh
Of relief that the upper Central mer-
chants will greet the cleared street.
Last week the huge heaters for dry
ing the sand were running at full blast
and young and old have enjoyed the
immense cracking fires in the street
as comfort, while waiting for the
street cars. For the children the run.
ming Of the heaters has a source OF
great amusement. s..

N. E. COMMITTEES
READY FOR WORK
IMPROVEMENT LEAGUES MEAN
BUSINESS.
Have Made Dates to Call on Mayor
Jones, Congressman Fletcher, City
Council, ct al-Lot for a Northeast
Minneapolis Postoffice is o. Kali
They Need is Uncle Sans Cash.

Northeast Minneapolis residents with
an eye on improvements will leave no
stone unturned to achieve certain ends. |
The Northeast Minneapolis Improve
ment league is determined to further
the interests of Northeast Minneapolis
and at the last meeting several of the
most important subjects came up for
discussion. President G. A. Kelsey of
the improvement league has appointed
the committees, and matters will be
taken UP at once to reach the desired
ends.
The most important question in North
east Minneapolis is the proposed new
postoffice. It is desirable to have an
office in Northeast Minneapolis which
lated streets and SO far Central avenue
has been designated as being the most
advantageous point. A committee has
been named to work on the plan and to
see Congressman Fletcher to use his in
fiuence in having postotfice appropria-
tion for Northeast Minneapolis made
at the next session Of congress. The
anonymous benefactor of Northeast
Minneapolis is ready to donate the lot
on Central avenue as soon as a favor
able decision has been made as to the
new pestoffice station. P. G. Deming,
Walter. Scott and w. A. Julie, three Of
| the we1l-known Northeast business men
| have been named as a committee to in
! terview Mr.. Fletcher and to take what
ever steps are necessary. The location
of the lot to be donated is on upper
! Central avenue and of easy access for
the residents Of the New Boston office.
Residents Northeast feel justified in
their demands for a postoffice, as the
growth in the ninth ward has resulted
in great decrease of mail matter and
by many the location of the St. Anthony
Falls postoffice station is considered far
too much down town.

farmer knew him, but they were so anx-
ious to branch out as stockholders Of
a bank that they backed him, and his
bank has started well.
Another thing that puzzles the bank
ing department is the fact that the
establishment Of a new bank never
decreases the deposits of the old banks
in a neighborhood. The new banks get
a new line Of capital and deposits; 1t
must be money that is hidden. At least
it does not come out of other banks. 4
uWhile there is no way of getting at
the figures, said Captain Albright, -
believe there is as much money hidden
in socks and under carpets or buried
or carried as there is in the banks. The
deposits Of the state and national banks
exceed $100,0O0,000 in Kansas. This
means, if / am right in my conclusions,
that there is $20O,O0O,O00 Of cash. in
the state, or about $40 per capita.
The Legislature passed a law two years
ago fixing the minimum capital /, Of state st y
banks at $4,000 Prior to that the
gave all $4,000 banks two years to IN
crease their capital to $40 900. At
that time there were l69 $4,000
| banks in the state. They had all in
creased their capital as required. Today
there is not $4,000 state bank in Kan
sas. And the remarkable thing ls that
more thans5O per cent Of those banks
increased their capital from the surplus
fund In other words, aside from pay
ing 6 per cent dividends on old stock
they had made enough to issue q stock
dividend to double their capital. MOI
a single small bank went out OF bust
ness as q result Of the law.
| New banks are being organized rap
idly. Thirty-one have been esta bllshee
since Jan. i. Twelve more have beer
chartered and are waiting for the bank
commissioner to institute them.
