FRAUDORDERI ISSUED
POSTMASTER GENERAL CUTS OUT
BUSINESS OF ST. LOUIS BANK.
Company Cannot Use the Malls
differing Offers Are Made to the
Public in Their Advertisements of
the Great Profits to Be Made by
Buying Stock.

Postmaster General Cortelyou has
announced the issuance of fraud or
der against the Peoples United States
bank of st. Louis, Mo-, its officers and
agents, and E. C. Lewis, a publisher
effective July g. The action bars the
company from the use of the mails,
after an investigation by the postal
authorities as to the details of the
business of the institution. The post
master general, in his announcement
tonight, says:
ut is understood that the funds of
the bank which have not been borrow
ed by Mr. Lewis in his enterprises,
amounting to about two thirds of the
total amount RENTED, are deposited
in banks and will be available toward
reimbursement of the stockholders,
who number upward OF $4,000. 1t is
the intention of the officers of the
postoffice department to cooperate
with the secretary of state in Missouri
in every proper way for the interests
of the investors and depositors."
The Peoples United States bank
was incorporated November IA, 1904,
with capital stock of $1,000,000. The
capital stock was increased March Is,
1905, to 81, 100000, of which $2,000,O00
was paid in.
The men chosen for the first board
of directors were Edward G. Lewis, |
Frank j. Cabot, Augustine p. Coakley, |
Eugene w. Thompson and Guy A. Ar
bogast.
E. c. Lewis began advertising the
bank in the February, 1904, issue of
the Woman's Magazine, a publication
which he owned and controlled and |
which he had been publishing in st. |
Louis at the time for about year. |
This publication has continued to car
ry the advertisement of the bank ever
since that time.
Early statements regarding the |
bank were filled with hope and prom
Use. In the Woman's Magazine for
July, 1904 it was stated by Lewis:
"Since my article appeared in our
last issue over 10000 subscriptions to
the capital stock of our bank have
been received.
Glittering Promises.
81 am to turn nearly everything |
have into cash. outside of my stock |
holdings in my present publication
business, and expect to subscribe for
at least $1,000 900 of the stock of our
bank. | must pay cash exactly the
same as you do, for my stock, as there
is no promoters stock in this bank.
When it opens its doors there will be
a dollar in cash in the vaults for every
dollar of capital stock, and every dol
lar of my profits will go to increase
the reserve of the bank each year.
Already the enormous success of
the bank is assured. One banker of
Chicago has offered to place $1,000,000
of our stock in a single day. A San
Francisco banker subscribed for $780,
900 of the stock, but was permitted TO
have only $500, and if any of my read
ers fail to get in before all the stock
is subscribed | shall not let this bank
er have the $500,000."

MOUNTAIN CLIMBING.
Famous Swiss Sport to Begin Early

Special Correspondence of The Star
GENEVA, June 8, 1905
The climbing season on the Swiss noun
tains Is likely to begin earlier this year
than usual as there is less snow. This year
the avalanche fell earlier than usual, and
an army of workmen have been engaged in
clearing the line. In Lucerne the famous
Rigi and Mount Pilatus lines are already
carrying many passengers into the land Of
SHOWS.
Down in the valley Is spring, almost sum-
mer higher up on the Mattalp the Pilatus
line runs through a tunnel carved out of
the solid ice, while the famous summit OF
Pilatus is deeply covered and solid snow is
heaped in huge ramparts and walls around
the hotel and railway station.
The recent earthquake which was severe
~ felt in Switzerland has in many places
rendered the mountain paths unsafe Great
assures have appeared in the tracks, ard
huge overhanging rocks ana boulders have
been loosened from their places and
threaten to fall at any moment

LABOR STATISTICS.
Interesting Facts Regarding Wage
Farmers in United Kingdom.


Special Correspondence Of The Star.
LONDON, June 3. 1905.
Some interesting facts as to the lives of
that section Of wage-earners in the United
Kingdom popularity known as the working
classes are given in the annual abstract Of
labor statistics for the last year just pub
lished.
These number, men and women together,
over 100000. OF these over 100000 are
employed in agriculture, and of the re-
mainder ,9O2 ,30S are members of the 1,166
trade unions.
Employment, so far as trades unions were
concerned, was not very good last year.
Taking the average. 6 in every 100 were I'M
employed throughout the year, against in
1903 and in 1902 and 3 in 1901.
OF the huge mass of workmen who do not
belong to trade unions the return does not
speak, but the fact that the unemployed
unonists were more in number than in any
year since 1904 gives a good indication or
what must have been the conditions among
those who have not had the advantage of
combination to aid them i'll obtaining en-
ployment.
The number of disputes resulting in
strikes again showed decrease. Only 334
were recorded during the year, against 1881
in 1903 442 in 1902, and G42 in 1901.
The disputes affected only 93,922 work
people, less than one-third of the number IN
1902 and they lost a total of ], go work
ing days, against nearly 100000 days III
1903 and 100000 days in 1902.
Seventeen per cent of the disputes ended
in favor of the work people, and 4S per cent
in favor of the employers. The remainder
were compromised
There was little fuctuation in favor of
wages during 1904, and where there was
any change it was chiefly on the wrong
side

THE PRINCE OF WALES
Has Acquired Reputation as Pub
lie Speaker.

Special Correspondence of The Star.
LONDON, June 3, 1905.
The Prince of Wales has recently been
making a reputation a public speaker
which compares favorably with that al
ready acquired by his royal relative, the
Emperor of Germany. At the centenary
Of the Royal Medical and Chrurgical So
ciety. for instance, the prince dealt with
technical subjects in a manner which great
ly pleased the physicians present. In his
ability to adapt himself to conditions and
to think on his feet the Prince of Wales
far surpasses his royal father. who has
never been regarded as much of public
speaker.
At the centenary of the Royal Medical
and Chrurgical Society the Prince of
Wales, who is president of the hospital
Sunday fund and president of the cancer
research fund, and who has amazed the
sovereigns of Europe by the interest which
he has taken recently in the practical hos
pital work in London, thanked the presi-
Cent, Sir Richard Douglas Powell, for the
work which the society had accomplished
among the poor and the suffering OF
London.

neuYers.
The army officers have been detailed to
the various ships of the squadron OBJ

in this case is the navy.
Annapolis win hardly be attacked owing
to the fact that Il has no fortifcatons, but
Baltimore will be threatened by the entire
