COAST ARTILLERY WEAK
rHREE-FOURTHS OF DEFENSES USE
LESS IN SUDDEN WAR.
Paw Is Too Small and Men Refuse to
Enlist-Hull's Bill to Act
as Remedy.

WASHINGTON, D. c., April 3.-Sur-
prising facts regarding the inadeGuacy
of the coast artillery were brought out
in the recent examination by Secretary
Taft by the Senate committee on mill
tary affairs. when he presented .iata
showing that the present authorized force
of coast artillery is sufficient to provide
one relief for only 81 per cent. OF the
guns. mines, range finders, etc, now ac-
tually installed or authorized for the
coast defenses of the United States. ms
is exclusive of reserves, supports. etc
IL case of sudden outbreak OF war
10 per cent. of the coast defenses would
have to remain idle until such time rs
volunteers or raw recruits could be
trained to handle the high power guns
mines and position finding system, etc.
This great shortage is said to be Gue
to the fact that the pay is not sufficient
To obyiate these conditions. Representa-
tive Hull of Iowa has presented q bill
in Congress which carries increased pay
for certain grades in the coast artillery
that require technical skill, and increases
the authorized strength by about 5000
officers and men. This bill if passed Will
increase the authorized strength 10 40
per cent. of that required for one rellet.

.SLAYERS' NAMES KNOWN
MINNEAPOLIS POLICE BELIEVES
THEY ARE IN MINE REGIONS.
Eight Men Not Accounted for Out OF
Twenty-seven Who Were Together
Reward Is Offered.

MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, April s.
Through a process of elimination the
police noE know the names of the eight
men who murdered the six Macedonians
in Minneapolis or were present at the
time of the tragedy.
There are twenty-seven men in the par
ty that originally came to Minneapolis
from the logging camp at Alborn, MINI.
Of these ten were in the party that went
to Duluth on Monday preceding the MUIR
der. Three have been traced to Chicago,
but when they were found there were
able to prove that they had left long be-
fore the six men were murdred: Inns
leaves eight men to be accounted for and
the police have assurance that they have
guilty knowledge of the crime.
While two are believed to have gone
east the remaining six are known to be
now somewhere in the mining regions OF
northern Minnesota. With the names in
their possession the police feel confident
of an early arrest.
Mayor Jones, who has just returned
from the east, has offered reward OF
$500 for information leading to the ar
rest of the murdererS

Result of Whites Resolution.

MtECIRAS, Spain. April 3.--The
text of the resolution in behalf OF the

the Sultan is disposed to accord the Jews
equity. but Ills functionaries do not al
ways sufficiently share the sovereign S

The american delegation therefore asks

FARM LOANS FOR
NATIONAL BANKS.
House Bill Reported Which Is Intended
to Make Rural Real Estate
Acceptable.

WASHINGTON, D. c., April g.
Speaker Cannon has given his consent to
the consideration by the House of the
bill favorably reported from the COM
mittee on banking and currency, author
izing all national banking associations to
lend money on farm lands when such
loans are properly safeguarded. Senator
Knute Nelson of Minnesota urged the
committee to report a bill of the same
general character which he introduced
in the Senate.
Old Theory Is Involved.
This project is considered by banking
men in Congress as one OF the most I'M
portant in connection with agricultural
interests which has come up for consld-
GRAFTON i'll recent years. The present
system of national banking, with the
prohibition that banks could not make
loans on real estate, was adopted forty
years ago. 1t was done on the theory
that in times of depression banks could
not promptly realize on this class OF Sc
curity.
Representative Prince of Illinois. who
made the report on the bill from the
committee. says in that document that a
great change has occurred since the pres
ent system of national banking was in
augurated.
THE real estate of the country" he
said. has been settled largely by great
cities. towns and villages: large farming
interests have grown and extended, all
of which has greatly increased the do
nestle. commercial and real value of all
real estate.
Real Estate Loans Usually Good.
at is a fact that all state banks are
! permitted to make loans ON real estate,
u
banks to loan any part or all of the
capital or surplus on real estate, and a
record of a state bank failing from this
cause is exceedingly rare. A note Sc
cured by mortgage on real estate can
| be foreclosed as promptly as any other
debt, and is made negOtiabl and money
can be realized on it the same and as
promptly as in the case of other notes,
bonds or stocks
1t is the opinion of the committee that
the enactment of it's bill into a law
would make the national banking ~sys-
TEN more popular and useful in sections
where it now is practically useless. Ii
contends a national bank cannot be OF
use and serve the wants of a large agri-
cultural section because under the pres
ent law it cannot properly serve and pro
mote such interests
How Loans Are Safeguarded.
The bill which the committee has re
ported provides that any national bank,
ing association may lend % per cent. OF
it's capital and surplus on unincumbered
real estate. exclusive of all improve
ments thereon. to the extent of 80 PEI
cent. of a conservative market valuation
thereof. Teh committee believes the
fact that a bank cannot lend more thar
% per cent. of its capital and surplus
on farm lands is prudent protection tc
keep it from overlooking.
The bill forbids any loan to be made
OH farm land incumbered by prior liens
mortgages, or judgments, or to make
loans on any real estate outside of t.
state or territory in which the bank /
located.
Secretary Shaw does not favor the
enactment of this project.

DIR. Pinault was soon astonished to
receive from his Minneapolis bankers Il

DOWIE ASKS FOR NEWS
Wires Zion City and Signs "First Apos-
tle"-Pledge All Property for Re-
Mobilization Scheme.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, April 3.-The follow
ing message was today received at Zion
City from Dowie, who is at Ocotlan,
Mexico:
Wire Immediately full report of Sundays
meeting FIRST APOSTLE.
A meeting of the officers of Zion City
and the Church of Zion was held today,
and it was decided that it is necessary
to raise at once 100000 for the COM
plete financial rehabilitation of Zion
City, it's church and industries. Land
and other properties will be pledged to
raise the necessary amount, and numer-
Gus offers have been received from cred
itors indorsing the plan and promising
assistance.
Dowie's Fall Complete.
WAUKEGAN, ILL.,, April 3.-LSpe-
cial. IA mass meeting of Zionites in the
Shiloh temple last night was contirma-
tory of the sentiment expressed Sunday
evening and throughout yesterday to de
post the once great leader. All are
agreed that Dowie mas run his race. The
old man will be cared for until the end
of his days-but modestly, economically
as ward of the church.
The most startling evidence that
Dowie's rule in Zion City has ended for
ever came when a force of men was sent
out to erase from every public building
signs bearing the name of John Alex
ander Dowie. The men went first to
Zion hospice with a large LADDER and
painted out the name of the former
First Apostle" From there they went
to the Zion bank across the street, i'll
the administration building, and
scratched from the doors and windows
the gilt letters John Alexander Dowie."
The workmen proceeded to the general
stores, removing signs and finally to ev
cry sprinkling cart and other vehicle.
The name of Dowie was removed even
from the ornate barrels scattered through
the town as receptacles for free offer
ings.
that the removal of Dowie's name from
every object in Zion City was necessary
from a legal point of view, as it's pres
ence might be considered in litigation as
stabishing ownership.
