that they probably knew nothing of it,
but went through the observation of the
natal day of the Savior, blissfully uncor-
scious of the fact that the day was drop
ped from their calendar.
Those who We're victimized in this way
were passengers on the Great Northern
steamship Dakota, en- route to Japan
and China. The ships schedule provided

Disturbance in City.
Memphis, Tenn, experienced the clos
ing of three banks Wednesday without
feeling the least disturbance in financial
circles. The Merchants Trust Company,
anticipating heavy run, preliminary IN
timation of which was given by the
withdrawal of many deposits Tuesday
afternoon, was the immediate cause OF
the suspension of that bank and the APP
pointment of John p Edmondson,
lawyer, as receiver. The American Saw
ings Bank and Trust Company, which
is dominated by the directorate of the
Merchants Trust Company, fearing that
the failure of the other institution would
cause run on its own deposits, also
suspended payment until the affairs OF
the Merchants Trust Company shall
have been adjusted. The American Saw
ings Bank and Trust Company, it de-
velops, absorbed the Mechanics Savings
bank at Main and Calhoun streets and
took charge of the latter company's bust
ness. 1t is stated by the officials of both
institutions that the depositors VIII be

RESERVOIR DAM GIVES WAY.

Mont, Carrying Away Houses.
The reservoir situated 500 feet above
Crow Agency, Mont, which supplies
water for the city and to Indians on the
lower half of Crow reservation, broke
Friday. The water swept away the
house occupied by William Decker and
family and an unoccupied cabin and
barn stored with hay and grain. The
water ran in mad torrent through the
streets, flooding cellars and lower floors
OF residences, causing a panic among
the occupants, who fed in safety i'll tEe'r
night clothes. Curley, the only surrivor
of the Custer massacre, still continues
to have his old time luck. His cottage,
which the government built for him,
stands at the foot of the bluff upon
which the reservoir stood. 1t was missed
by the mad rush of the waters, timber,
and rock. 1t was a difficult matter to
keep the Indians away from the school,
as they were anxious about their chill
dren. The damage is estimated at sew
eral thousand dollars, and it will be
some time before it can be repaired. The
exact cause of the breaking of the dam
is unknown.
