Butte, Mont, Oct. 14.-F. Augustus
Heinze and M. S. Largey, young mill
ionaire, this afternoon bought a con-
trolling interest in the State Savings
bank, purchasing practically the entire
holdings Of Thomas. M. Hodgens, cash
,ier and founder Of the institution.
While no official announcement has
been made, it is understood on good
authority that the transaction involved
about 100000. New officers were
elected as follows: M. S. Largey, presi-
dent; 8. V. Kemper, vice president,
and E. P. Chaplin, recently Of Massa-
chusetts, cashier. Mr.. Hodgens retires
as an executive Of the bank but will
remain a director, retaining small
amount Of stock.
A remarkable piece of fnanciering
is connected with tho change Of con-
troll, according to reports current in
business circles Of this city to the effect
that in securing control Of the State
Savings bank, Heinze, can now regulate
the payment Of about 100000 which,
It is said, he owes the bank.
According to the story, Mr.. ~Heinze
was indebted to the State Savings bank
to tho extent Of $500,0oo it IS, SAID,
with another 100000 he secured con.
troll Of the bank. Thomas NJ. Hodgens

Ottawa, Ont, Oct. l4:-So aroused
has public opinion in Canada become
over life insurance matters in Canada,
consequent upon the disclosures being
made by the insurance Investigations
in the United States, that it is now cer-
tain there will be an inquiry of some
kind into the methods of Canadian con-
Germs at the earliest possible moment.
Altho no definite government an
nouncement is as yet forthcoming, it is
privately conceded that the. coming ses-
sion of parliament will witness an in
vestigati0n into the whole subject.
This inquiry will probably be under.
taken by special committee having
power to summon witnesses. In his
last report to parliament the superin-
tendent Of insurance for Canada pointed
out the necessity. for, the amendment
of the insurance law, which is not now
suited to the requirements of the bust
ness. Before the law is amended, how
ever, an inquiry will be held which will
lay bare any. irregularities and restore
public confidence in the stability Of the
Canadian institutions which have suf-
fered as a result of the startling reYe-
latlons in the United States .F1nf II !

: Ottawa, OCT. 14.-Sir Frederick Bor-
den. niAister Of militia, who has Just
returned from a tour Of the western
grain fields. predicts that the Ca1adiar1
northwest will yet produce q harvest OF
a thousand million bushels Of wheat. D.
D. Mann, Of the Canadian Northern, does
not consider Sir Frederick's view 81 the
future wheat conditions any too opti-
mtstic. - s5A >'. p E
Millions. Of acres of land are being TAX
en- up in the Canadian northwest every
year. and the wheat growing area is ex-
panding with great rapidity, so much so
that the question is being asked whether
the wheat growers will always be sure
Of a market for their grain. Apropos Of
this query, somewhat remarkable sit
uation, in respect to the wheat area Of
Great Britain has been reported to the
Canadian government by it's commercial
agent in Manchester. The decrease Of
the wheat area Of Great Britain in 1904
as compared with the previous year,
amounted to as much as 1s per cent. the
acreage under this cereal falling to 1,275,
2S4 acres, which is the smallest area ever
recorded. ~.
