HOLIDAY NOT NEEDED.
Certificate Plan Enough Help fer
State of Washington.

Spokane. Wash, Oct. 3l.-The banking
situation here is improved somewhat to-
day. The banks are letting go today of a
little more money and the clearing house
checks are not being insisted upon as
strongly as yesterday. The local bank
ers say they have now reached a posi-
ton where they can safely supply any
one with money who needs it They
claim this is not caused by the receipt of
money, but Is for the reason that all
the business men have united to do prac-
tically all business on the clearing house
SYSTEM which has relieved the money
market. Two or three banks are paying
all their own checks in cash, while all
are giving out some money.
Bellingham, Wash, Oct. 31.-At 2 O'Clock
this morning the Associated Press decided
to adopt the clearing house certificate
plan of making payments. and opened on
this basis this morning. Withdrawals are
limited to 500. This action was made
necessary by the refusal OF the interior
repositories to supply the local banks
with currency.
Fourteen banks in eleven towns outside
of Bellingham, in Skagit and Whatcom
counties opened for business today as
usual and in no instance is advantage be-
ing taken of the bank holidays proclaimed
by the governor. Each bank declares that
its reserves are ample to meet any de-
mand, and that no trouble is anticipated.

 Mobile, Nov. 12-(Special) )--When shown . clipping from The Montgom- cry Advertiser of this morning which stated that Dale Gear would manage the Mobile team in the southern League next year. Secretary Charles Colsson, of the local baseball, club. most posit- lively denied 1t but refused to state who would manage the team.
 In discussing the subject. Mir. Cols- son stated that Mobile had yet to get her berth in the Southern League be- fore she went about getting a man. ager. When asked the direct question "Wili Bernie Mckay manage next year.. MT. Colsson stated that he could not say. Mir. Colsson spoke very High ly of Dale Gear as a baseball player and manager. and thinks that under his generalship any team would be well up In q league racsS
 MT. Colsson stated that the local as- socfation were experiencing all kinds of trouble cutting loose from the Cot ton States League. and stated that he did not know exactly what would be the outcome. He is authority for the statement that the Cotton States League moguls are going to-make all the trouble possible for the Mobile as- sociation because they realize that when they lose Mobile they lose the backbone of the league as far as money making Ia concerned
 Mfr. Colsson was told of the press dis patches stating that Shreveport had bought the Temple. Texas. franchise in the Texas League. but he would not state positively that Mobile had con- firmed any deal whereby she wonid en- ter the higher league next season

Railroads Expected to Set Up that Bfr-

 Steel People. Who Re-
 ceive the Fees.
 After another full days session taken up in hearing testimony on pe- titioners' contentious in the case of the Wood Dickinson Company against the Louisville and Nashville Railroad. e1 al, yesterday. the Railroad com mission adjourned until this morning at 10 o'clock, when the testimony for the roads will be submitted.
 The. evidence introduced yesterday was along the. same lines as on Mon- day, 1t being shown that many plants Nhad been affected by the refusal or the railroads to absorb the switching charges of S to plants located on the Birmingham Southern, while they do not charge for switching cars to the plants on their own lines.
 The evidence developed .yesterday that since the sale of the Birmingham Southern in June. 1906. several manu- facturies had been forced to shut down. Witnesses testified that this was due to the exactions of the 8 switch ing charge for scars placed at their , 1t was further testified that other manufactories around Birmingham other than those on the Birmingham Southern. did noe nave 70 pay sWitcnT ing charges. the presumption being that these we've absorbed by the rail7 roads handling the freight e. | The railroads will set up today that conditions are entirely different on the line of the Birmingham Southern, that it is owned by the steel trust, and thai the Tennessee Coal. Iron and Railroad Company receives the switching charges which are exacted from the roads, sending cars over their line to manufacturerF
 It will be argued by the roads that the Birmingham Southern Is not a common carJier in this instance but is l. nothing more nor less than a private switching line, and that relief should be sought through that corporation and not through the roads, who, if the! absorb this switching fee, will have to deduct that amount from their reve' nue to pay to the Birmingham South ern for tID privilege of placing a car It is alleged that In some instances the placing of one of those cars costs third of the revenue derived from long haul to Birmingham.
 There were several wordy battles be- fere the Commissioners yesterday and great interest Is developing in this hearing.
