st. Petersburg, Jan. 31.-An impOr-
tant financial measure, dictated by the
drain ON the savings bank In conse-
quence of the revolutionary agitation
and the impossibility of competing
with the rates Of private banks. Is an
nounced. 1t increases by imperial or
der the rate Of interest Of the govern
ment savings banks from 3.6 to per
cent. The government hopes 1t will
have q favorable effect on the rede-
posting, which has already recon-
menced. According to the oficiai
statement the increased deposits In
the savings banks for the hrst half Of
the Russian January were $500, 900,
ten times the increase during the sim
liar period Of 1906. At Moscow, ac-
cording to the Slovo, the depositors OF
gold are demanding receipts stating
explicitly that their deposits are re-
turnable In the same metal. The banks
refuse to do SO.
The rate OF interest was decreased
from Z per cent to SO per cent In 1894
1on account Of the favorable position
Of the government and the low rate OF
money at that time An order has
also been signed by the emperor rails
iQx the rate paid On deposits In per-
petuity In the Imperial bank from 3k
to ~ per cent.
The rates OF exchange are soaring
steadily. For drafts on America pri-
vate banks are charging as high as
201 roubles per 800, whereas during
the preceding summer the rate was
1y7.50 roubles per 800.

Tribune from Waverly, Ia, says.
An attempt to mob the Rev. French
E. Oliver, Chicago evangelist, for at
tacks upon the city's morals and au-
thorities was averted only by the unit
ed action of the regular ministers of
the city. In his sermon Oliver made
an attack upon the city administra-
tion. Soon thereafter mob of 200
proceeded to the church where Mr..
Oliver was still speaking. The local
ministers then hustled Oliver out of
the church and wired to Governor
Cummins for protection, but Sheriff

at bay.

him to Mr.. Krauthoff and Mr.. Roberts
and told them they could rely on what

their books without fear as Garfield
was absolutely to be trusted and was
q gentleman. l was present at the
Chicago club and heard their conver-
sation. Mr.. Garfield said that the in
formation given him by the packers
would be. used by his department, but
not by the department OF justice. Gar
field said that he wanted the co-opera-
ton of the packers and the best way

Mr.. Dawes was not in any manner

Mr.. Krauthoff that his department had
nothing to do with the department of

declared that they are absolutely d.
vorced and that the law was so framed
that business men could feel free to
give information.
Tho witness declared that Commits
sioner Garfield stated positively that
the information to be secured was not
