NATIONAL BANKS INCREASING
 RAPIDLY
Over One Third of All Charter ed in Last Forty-Three Years Were Chartered in the Last Six years,

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-The re- cent report of Secretary of the Treas ury Shaw shows a remarkable growth in the number of National Banks. He says:
 From the establishment of the na- tional banking system in 1863 to Sep tember 30, 1906, national banking as- sociations to the number of S,3S0 were chartered. of which G.1S9, with capital of s41,S64,775, are in active opera tion. During the period in question 44S national banks failed and 1,743 were placed in voluntary liquidation. From statistics compiled by the Comp 1 troller of the Currency it is shown that creditors of insolvent national banks have received, on an average, 7S per cent on their claims.
 Over one-third, or SIP per cent, of the national banks organized were chartered between March 14 1900, and September 30 1906. This rapid in crease, an average of nearly forty banks for each calendar month. was due to the legislation embodied in the act of March fl, 1900, which authorized the incorporation of banks with mini mum capital of $25,000, the issue of circulating notes to the par value of semi-annual tax on circulation from one-half to one-fourth of 1 per cent. The authorized capital of the 3.116 banks chartered since March 14, 1900. was SITS, ,763, 300, and the amount of charter bonds s44,831 ,520. Two thou sand and thirty-six banks, or practical ly two-thirds of the banks chartered in this period, were organized with cap lital of s25. 5.000 each. Banks Of larger capital to the number of 1.0s0, with a total authorized capital of s125. 5.6S2. 800, were organized in this period under authority of the act of 1864.
 Of the total number of banks char
 tered since March If, 1900, 341, with capital of $23, ,041. 800, were conversions of state banks; 1.024, with capital of s65. .434 900, were congratulations of
 state and private banks and 1.745,
 with capital of s9o, 800. were banks of primary organization.

PATSY COLLINS LEAVES BIC
 ESTATE
CounciIman-Elect From Mo- have County Was One of Prominent Citizens Of North west Arizona.

The following is an extract from the Prescott Journal-Miner of Dec. 6, regarding the sudden death of Patrick Collins, elected to represent Mohave County in the Council:
 News was received here yesterday of the death of Patsy Collins, of Mo have county. at Needles, Cal, yester- day morning at II o'clock. He had been in failing health for some time but was not considered dangerously i'll until about two weeks ago. when he gradually grew worse until the end came The deceased was aged about "a years and a native of Ireland. He leaves no immediate relatives in this section or Mohave county. but is said to have two sisters living in New York City.
 He emigrated to the United States from his native land at an early age. and was among the early settlers Of California in 1S49, when the news of the discovery of gold in that state startled the world. He was a famil-
 
 on the Comstock lode in Nevada. and came to Mohavs county many years ago. since when he has been among its most enterprising and public spir- tied citizens Being possessed of a miners heart and hand. he was char itable sympathetic and friendly. his many acts of kindness having made him hosts of friends all over the coast who will regret to learn of his death.
 In politics he was a Democrat. all ways taking a deep interest in the ad- vancement of his political principles as well as the progress of the commit mites in which he lived. He was elected as a delegate from this Ter ritory to the National Democratic Convention, held in St Louis in 1so4. and was elected member of the Twenty-third Legialative Assembly from Mohave county, being the old est member of that body and serving

TRAINMEN ARE IN DEMAND
 0NS0.PAC.
Tucson Railroad Yards Are Filled with Long Lines of Freight Cars, Owing to the Scarcity of Switchmen,

TUCSON. Dec. 11.-With long lines of loaded freight cars standing in the local yards, much of which are for Tucson, some indication is given of the heavy freight business which is being done at this time by the South ern Pacific. Many of the cars are destined for other points, but lay off for a time Is required here owing to the fact that the Southern Pacific is having difficulty in finding sui ficient number of engineers and fire men,
 q have never known a time when trainmen were enjoying greater pros oerity and were in greater demand than at the present time" remarked a local railroad man to Citizen rep resentative who has been here a num- Der of years.
 Tt seems as ii every engineer and fireman has had his services reserved in advance" the speaker continued, and notwithstanding, the fact that the company has been trying for some time to get additional men, they are not to be found.
 Wages here are excellent and this is not the difficulty. It is simply be. cause of the great prosperity that is being experienced throughout Arizona and in fact throughout the whole coun. try, and all roads are seeking more engineers and firemen.
 Money is plentiful in nearly every Arizona town and I have been in all of the large ones within the past few months. People buy freely and the merchants enjoy a big trade. This necessitates the hauling of much freight and then there is the through freight, which is enormous"
 The freight traffic at present is sc heavy that the Southern Pacific could use more engines over this division il they were available. There are a large number of monster freight en zines here, but they are scarcely equa to the task of hauling the enormous loads.
