Savings Banks Statement Shows
prOSperity

The business conditions in Pendle-
ton are good is certainly indicated by
the financial statement of the Pendle-
ton Savings bank, which is published
elsewhere in this paper today. BY
the statement rendered the amount
of deposits at the close of business on
December 80 is shown to have been
I,017749.l1. The surplus and cap
ital amount to 100000, and the un-
divided profits $29,356.91, while the
loans and discounts amounted to ST.
065,474.92.
The past year has been the best in
the history of the bank, and the show
ing made is certainly good compared
with that of 1894. At that time the
deposits of the bank amounted to but
s94,S70.4S. Even since 1900 the de-
posits have been practically doubled,
as the statement for that year showed
the deposits to have been $571, 1,O26.7S.
According to the bank authorities
the loans are entirely to the produc-
ers and business men OF Pendletou
and vicinity.

tanned. At night dance and supper
will be served and everything will be
done to make the event enjoyable.

New York, Jan. 12.-When the
question whether H. H. Rogers should
answer the questions propounded by
Attorney General Hadley, of Mis-
souri,, before Commissioner Sanborn,
came up for argument in the supreme
court this morning, the Standards at
torneys sought delay. The court de-
cided the case as Ready"
Rogers answer divides the ques-
tions into classes, embracing owner
ship by the witness of stock in re-
spondent companies; of stock in COM
panies other than the respondents;
by parties other than the witness of
stock in respondents company, and by
parties other than the witness in
stock of companies other than re-
spondents.
The operation of respondents in
other states than Missouri is involved.
The answer declares the questions
refer to the operations of individuals
and corporations other than the re-
spondent. Mention is made of the
extreme publicity and sensational
taking of flashlight photogra pl, g
which is repugnant to Rogers.
The final statement is that Rogers
would answer all statements which
the court deemed proper, but he did
not mean this court should have final
decision as the issues raised are en-
irely new and must go to the high
est courts in the land

Washington, Jan. 12.-Senator FL
kins, of West Virginia; d. o. Mills, of
New York, and Isaac Liebes, of San
Francisco, lessees of the fur seal
islands of Alaska, under the name
of the North American Commercial
company, of San Francisco, will prob
ably lose their privileges before the
end of the present session of con-
gress.
The administration is alarmed at
the threatened determination of fur
seals, and steps will be taken before
adjournment to stop the slaughter. 1t
will probably be done through an
agreement with Canada or through
the suspension of the work of the
lessees on the islands.
Reports of seal agents for the past
year include severe indictments of the
work of lessees and declare that the
killing has been the sole cause of a
decrease of 5S per cent of the surplus
virile breeding bulls in one year.

The attack is more serious than
was at first admitted. He said the
disease had attacked both lungs. The
physicians refrain from publishing the
temperature and heart action, which
in pneumonia tell the story. It is un-
derstood that heart action is all that
could be desired.
At noon Stanley, Fields nephew,
