Win There Be an Extra DIVIDEND? ?

WIN the American Security and Trust
Company declare IN extra dividend
That is a question that is just now
causing considerable discission among
brokers and holders of the stock. The
regular quarterly dividend Of ia per

January 10, but whether the directors

shown for the year the amount could

While the visit OF the currency COM
mission Of the American Bankers Asso-

was much appreciated by local bankers
who came in contact with them. il was
a source OF much regret that the visit

It is expected the committee Will return.

Garrett and the doctor are of the firm belief that the two men now in jail are innocent and that Rutherford and McMurray were murdered by bandits.
 On arrival at Washington they met the president, stated their mission and he called in Secretary of State Root and Assistant Secretary Bacon, and to them, in the presence of the president, MT. Garrett and Dr. Calnan made their statement of the case. q believe the president and secretary of state were both impressed with the innocence Of the two Americans" said Mir. Garrett today, "asd I believe that they will look further into the case than they have already done. They will take every step, I am sure, to see that the men get a fair and quick trial, and will do all they can, consistent with international law and courtesy, to have the Mexican authorities act in the mat ter as soon as possible. There is no doubt in my mind of the innocence or the two imprisoned men and l am sure that they will finally be released.

 The floods of last fall played havoc with the homes of many of our people both at Oaxaca and at Morales" said Mr. Echols yesterday.
 At oaxaca the greatest damage occurred, that village being complete y destroyed. At Morales a large amount of the land which had been put in cultivation was ruined by the washing of the floods. When the flood came practically the entire po- sa6Socrop, was yet in the ground, and gas a total loss. This crop would have brought many hundred dollars So our people.

 Many of the people of Morales lave Iets and are engaged in freight ing at various. points until they can secure land at some other point on which to again begin the work of making home.
