ten days ago the Paulist Fathers had
large deposit with the company but
IL had withdrawn its funds because of
uneasiness produced by frequent
changes of the company directorate.
A dispatch from Rutland, Vt, re-
ports David Fox, general manager of
the Rutland Street Railway Co., and
Chttenden Development Co., which
borrowed nearly 100000 from the
Merchants Trust Co., as saying the
failure would have little effect on the
undertakings of the corporations. The
corporations, he said, were on pay
ing basis.
To defend himself against what he
thought might be taken as q criti-
cism, Edwin Hawley, president of the
trust, before Jacob L. Phillips was
elected issued a statement denying
that loans and purchases of stock to
which the suspension of the company
had been ascribed, were made in his
administration. Those transactions"
he said, were made three years be-
fore l had anything to do with the
management of the concern"
There was" said Mr.. Judson today,
"on deposit in the main bank of the
company about $1,3O0OOO, confined al
most entirely to business men. The
Fifty.ninth street branch had on de-
posit about $4,000 among about one
hundred depositors, the majority of
whom had only savings accounts. No
other institution is involved by the
closing-not even to the extent of
one penny. The company has in cash
about 100000 on hand.
ut is certain that assets will cover
all liabilities to the extent of paying
the depositors and stockholders in full
If the assets can be marketed at par"

TROUBLE WAS CAUSED
BY Proposition to Select Anti-Saloon
League Delegates.

Allentown, Pa, May 23.-The tenn
rerance element in the general synod
OF the Reformed church today renewed
their attempt to have ten delegates
sent to the Anti-Saloon League con-
vention at Indianapolis next Novem-
Der, but the proposition was so stub
bornly opposed by many of the Ger
man delegates that it was temporarily
laid on the table.
In the consideration of the new con-
stitution the amendment to admit law
yers as counsel in appeal cases before
the tribunal of the Reformed church
was again taken up, but was turned
down, and minister and elders alone
can serve in that capacity.
Upon the question of appeals, II was
decided that the general synod should
remain the court of last resort for the
Lumblest member, Notwithstanding an
effort to confine all appeals, except
those concerning doctrines, cults and
the construction of the constitution to
the district synods.
One of the articles on the amended
constitution prevents ministers of the
Reformed church from remarrying di-
vorced persons except the ground Tor
the divorce was adultery and the wom-
an was the innocent party to the di-
yorce.

In buying food-articles, you must con-
slider several things: Economy, Results,
Easy Handling, Reliability; but the most
important is Health. >,>
Health means everything. In clothes,
furniture, etc., if the buyer gets poor or
imitation article, the only harm is loss Of
money. In buying food articles, if imi-
tations are supplied, there is a loss Of
money, and probably an injury to health
which is beyond price.
Remember these facts when buying
baking powder.

government must open its departments
and give the news; and fourth, the CEN
sOrship must be removed 50 that the
news might be sent.
Interesting as is the account Of how
these concessions were secured, quite
as interesting is the account of the
conditions that prevailed which made
the concessions necessary. No news
paper man could expect to secure ad-
mission to any department of the gov
eminent. Consequently he had to get
his information at the hotels, i'm the
cafes and on the streets. The papers
published little, but the streets were
full Of rumOrs of AL kinds, and some
OF them Of the widest character. AZ
ter running these down and satisfying
himself of their verify, the correspond
ent wrote his dispatch and drove off to
the office Of the censor. The press
censor had also the censorship of the
drama, and he might have to be fol-
lowed to some theatre. Between mid
night and o'clock in the morning,
the hours most vital to the morning
newspaper, he was absolutely inacces-
sIble. Having got his message ap-
proved, the correspondent then drove
to the telegraph bureau, and paid cash
at commercial rates for his dispatch,
and then it had to wait until the
wires had been cleared of all CONNER
c!al and private messages. The result
was that no paper in Europe kept a
correspondent in Russia, and as a re-
suit, a traffic in false Russian news
had been built up, because there was
no way of getting the truth. Newspa-
per men in Vienna, Berlin and London
made a living by peddling out the
news of Russia, and it was usually
false. At the German frontier there
was an active traffic. News or rum
crs that looked like news, was heard
In Russia. The man who had it took
II across the border into Germany,
and there sent it all over the world.
There was no way of knowing the true
from the false, where truth was so in
accessible while falsehood had free
course.
