DEVISES FEDERAL
BANK INSURANCE
Con gresham Has a Plan to Make
~ Government Safeguard
s Depositors.
Journal Special Service.

Journal Special Service. .. r.. r.
Washington, Dec. 20.-In view of
the trouble Of the three Walsh banks in
Chicago, because of the financial esca-
pades of their president, the plan of
Congressman Bates of Pennsylvania,
for the government to insure depositors
in national banks against loss, is at
tracing attention. ~
The Bates idea is based upon the
supposition that the national banks are
looked upon by the people of the coun-
try as safe, because they have the back:
/ ing and Endorsement of the United
States government. For this reason the
Pennsylvania man would make them Sc
safe that the government s indorse-
ment could be absolute and there would
be no danger of loss to any depositors
National bank insurance is the safe
guard Mr.. Bates would throw around
the national banks on behalf of the
public. When a bank failure jeopar
died the funds of the depositors, he
! would have the government assess al
the other national banks to make ut
the shortage Of the distressed institu
ton, SO that all depositors would re
ceive dollar for dollar Of their deposits
To provide an insurance fund, the
Pennsylvania would have the control
Ter Of the treasury levy an annual as
Z. SeSSmenC OF SlUU each on all the ma
tional banks in the country, which
would go into a sinking fund, the money
being invested in government bonds
This assessment would be kept up IN
til the fund amounted to $S,000,000
when the assessments Would be discon
tinued, recommending when the FUND
fell below $5,000,O00. ~ III
When national bank failed the re
ceiver would proceed to realize all thu
money possible on its assets, to assess
the stockholders to an amount equal tt
the par value Of their shares, as pro
vided for under the present law, ant
enough money to repay all deposition
in full, he would so report to the con
troller, who would Immediately draw
upon the proposed insurance fund AM
remit to each deposition the balance du'
him. ~ '. r.r 49,. r:..-.

Baltimore, Nd, Dec. '2O.-Dr. William
Osler, the man who wants the aged hus.

portant and interesting declaration. In
his latest book, he says: &c. -
'Deathbed' visions, believed in by
thousands and Of which there are scores
of supposed authentic records, are plain
nonsense Moreover, he supports his
declaration by 500 deathbed observa-
tions of his own, which he thinks prove
absolutely that such reported visions
are untrue. In all these cases there was
suffering, fear and other emotions, but
no thought Of the future.

His observations are startling con-

of a future life. I have careful records
of about five hundred deathbeds, studied
particularly with reference with the
modes of death and the sensations of
the dying. Ninety suffered bodily pain
and distress of some sort or another;
eleven showed mental apprehension; two
were in positive terror; one expressed
spiritual exaltation, and one bitter re-
morse. The great majority gave no
sign one way or the other; like their
birth, their death was sleep and forget

matter man hath no pre-emlneEce over

On Trail of the Aged.
Dr. Osler still is camped on the trail
of the aged: In his publication, which is
entitled "Counsels and Ideals from the
Writings of William Osler,', he adds to
his former observations by advising
physicians to seek the companionshiH
of the young.
