Tulsa has gained larger per cent
in her postal receipts during the past
fiscal year than any other city in
the two territories. Oklahoma City
comes next. The fiscal year of the
post Office department closed on June
80, and the reports were made up and
sent to the department headquarters
in the national capital They have
just been made public, with the aston
ishing fact that Tulsa, town Of
twelve thousand people, has made a
greater gain than Oklahoma City, a
place of $4,000 people, or of any of
the other of the many towns larger
than this one.
There is no better indication OF the
material prosperity of city than in
her post Office receipts, and taking
It's into consideration, the value Of
Tulsa holdings and Tulsa advantages
can be readily understood.
The postal receipts for all of the
ten larger cities OF Indian Territory
and Oklahoma for the past fiscal year,
show remarkable increase. Oklahoma
City has the largest absolute gain,
with S24,287 for the year gain, which
exceeds the total receipts Of many OF
the cities, but Tulsa comes next in
line, having a net gain Of almost 49,
900. The largest percentage OF gain
comes to Tulsa by a large majority,
Muskogee having less gain with more
than twice the amount of actual re-
'ceipts.
Muskogee having passed the $4O,-
900 mark, which is the figure set by
the department to entitle an office to
be ranked as first class, was made a
first class Office on July 1st.
The receipts and gains for the past
two years are as follows:

PAYING TELLER OF BANK AC-
CUSED OF COMPLICITY.
FRIENDS CRITICIZED
And He Shot Himself fills Relatives
Lost $4,000 in the
Smash.

Chicago, Aug. 1O.-Frank Kowal-
ski, paying teller of the Milwaukee
Avenue State bank, which failed last
Monday, and for some time assist
ant receiving teller in addition to his
other duties, shot and killed himself
tonight at his home at $40 North
Carpenter street. Criticism by his
neighbors and lifelong friends, who
accused him Of sharing in the down.
fall Of the bank, is believed to have
driven Kowalski to his death.
He had complained bitterly Of the
suspicious of his friends and declared
that unless his character was speedily
cleared, he would take his own life.
His relatives assert their firm be-
lief that he was innocent Of any
knowledge Of the acknowledgement OF
the bank by President Stensland.
When the bank failed Kawolski had
800 Of his own money on deposit in
the institution, and his immediate
relatives nearly $4,000. Had the tel
Ter known of Stensland' IS defalcation,
they assert, he would at least have
notified his relatives and would have
taken his own money out oHthe in
stituti0n.
The dead teller, who was about 30
years old, had been with the bank for
thirteen years.
While the search for Stensland,
the missing president, is being sx-
