Promptly.

Special Dispatch TO The Star.
NEW YORK. October 26.-The Brooklyn

some of the co days clause and only in
case of need made payments of $50 or
less
The Home Trust Company, at 1s4 Full
ton street. started to pay off depositors
this morning who went there In a little
greater force than usual. At IL o'clock
there were about one hundred in line. but
nothing approaching a panic was to be
observed either there or anywhere else in
the borough.
At the Germania Savings Bank. 315 Full
ton street. not more than twenty-five peo-
pie were in line a IL o'clock. The bank
had taken advantage of the 30 days
cause and made small payments where
they were absolutely required.
The Brooklyn Savings Bank. at Pierre
pont and Clinton streets, also took ad-
vantage of the % days clause. There
were about two hundred persons in the
line outside this bank at one time this
morning.
The Dime Savings Bank Remsen and
Court streets, put the 60 days clause in
operation, making payments on the same
basis as the Germania and the Brooklyn.
There were fifty in line there when the
institution opened
There was q little run on the Nassau
Trust Company at Q o'clock. but all COM
ers were being paid off with dispatch.
The Terminal Bank of Brooklyn,

FOR NEW BUILDINGS
SENATOR WARNER FAVoRS
PENN. AVE. PURCHASE.

Twenty years ago. when l was In the
House of epresentatives, l was in favor
of purchasing the land between Pennsyl-
vania avenue. the NAH. 18th street and
the Botanic Garden for sites for public
buildings and I have not changed my
mind that subject" said Senator War
ner of Missouri today
Why, do you know continued Mr..
to time after leaving the House 1 was
surprised. to see that while this project
for the placing of public buildings on the
south side of the avenue was so desirable
from every point of view. no substantial
progress seemed to be made toward It's
realization. When l was in the House
the approval of this plan for beautifying
and developing this city was so general
that l supposed the land would be in the
possession of the government long ago.
Congress is to be congratulated on the
fact that SO few expensive improvements
have been placed upon this land up to
this time. Further lay in acquiring the
property will only add to the danger of
having this property SO improved that
its cost will be very much greater than
at present. l hope that bill for acquir-
ing the land will be introduced early in
the session. and that Congress will take
action to insure the purchase of the land
as soon as possible We have need for

PROVIDENCE. October 26-The runs
started yesterday on savings irstitu-
tions in this city and the savings de-
partmeuts of other banks continued to
some extent this morning, in spite of
the assurance of bankers that there is
no cause for apprehension.
DepositorS gathered at the Industrial
Trust Company as early as o'clock
this morning, but were confronted with
Il notice that the bank had deemed it
advisable TO take advantage of the
clause requiring ninety-day notice
from depOsitors of savings and pdrtici-
patton accounts.
These notices were placed IN every
window.
y special meeting of the leading
bankers Of the city was held late yes
tcrday afternoon. at which a statement
to the public was prepared assuring
them that there WAS no cause for
alarm. and announcing that the saw
iEGS banks would take advantage of
the ninety-day clause until conditions
are more settled.
The Union Trust Company which
temporarily suspended, is still closed
but Marsden J. Perry, the vice presi-
dent, announces that it is perfectly
solvent and will probably be able to
resume business shortly
So far was possible today the
banks resorted to clearing house GER

branches, of which there are several
