The conservative policy in regard
to the paying out of currency adopt
ed yesterday by the three banks of
Canon City, has hardly caused a ripple
in the usual calm of Canon's substan-
tial business world. In fact, were it
not for the necessary publicity given
circulars, business men would have
little noticed the change.
All three banks reported today that
no difficulty was being experienced
under the new order Of things. The
situation is generally understood that
few explanations are now necessary.
No depositors have demanded their
deposits, and NO such demands are an
ticipated. -.
For the information Of business men
generally, it may be stated that checks
in payment of bills can be issued as
usual.
A man receiving a check and wish
ing the currency can have It cashed
can deposit the check and have II
placed to his credit. He. In t1rn. can
check against It in the usual way.
Merchants can check against their &C
counts for out-of-town Indebtedness
| the same as usual. Drafts in any
amount are being sold on eastern ex-
| change.
All pay rolls payable in check can
be gotten out as usual. The checks
thus placed in circulation will be
cashed by any business man who
handles currency. Or they can be de-
posted in the banks and checked out
in small amounts.
The banks are all highly pleased
with the quiet and sensible way Canon
City has fallen into the new order
OF things. No serious Inconvenience,
1t is thought, will result from the new
rule Anyone In doubt about details OF
their banking business can be fully
informed by calling at any of the local
banks.
The bankers generally are we'll
pleased with the result Of their action.
When seen by . Daily Record man this
morning. Cashier n. J. Evans, OF the
Citizens State bank. said:
Our bank 10 greatly pleased with
the many expressions Of confidence

Banks of Canon City and Florence DO Or
tion Recommended By Comptroller Q
liner. LII.

For the general protection Of the
local financial situation and for the
security Of all depositors. the National
and State banks OF Canon City and
Florence Tuesday acted upon the
advice Of their big Denver cores
pondents and the indirect advice OF
Secretary Of State Cortelyou, and post
ed the following notice to depositors:
Inasmuch as the banks generally
throughout the country. particularly
New York. Philadelphia. Boston, Chi
cago. St. Louis. Kansas City. Omaha.
Denver, Colorado Springs and Pueblo,
decline To furnish currency TO their
correspondents who are carrying bal
>ances with them, and these banks as
a matter OF common safety to the de-
positors have decided during the pres
ent emergency to pay out no currency.
but issue certificates for all demand
checks. =
This action compels US to take a
similar action and therefore. 1t Ii de-
cided by the undersigned bankers Of
Fremont county that for the present
we will not pay on any one account
more than 500 In currency, but Will
issue Eastern exchange or Certif-
Gates OF Deposit for any excess over
the 500. as may be desired.

today. We are especially Gratified with
the hearty endorsement of the busi-

action of our attorneys.
Our depositors now thoroughly un-
derstond the situation and are unit
in declaring that the banks have acted
for the best interests of all concerned.
We have no fear that the action will
be misunderstood, either now or
when the new ruling is called OH. The
people generally have q good. sem

good results have been largely tho

are rs solid as ever, and fear no other
condition.
The only difference will be noticed
when depositors wish to draw q con-
siderable amount from the banks. They
will be paid the full amount of their
claim but only 500 will be paid in cash
except in special cases. The remainder
of accounts exceeding 500 will be
paid in Eastern exchange or Certid-
Gates OF Deposit These will be made
in numberand amount to suit the pur-
chaser, and will be as good as gold In
any OF the business houses OF Canon
City or Colorado.
The effect OF the conservative ruling
can readily be seen. Currency will be
protected. ~
The fact that very large percentage
OF Canon City money transactions are
done By check will cause the situation
to be hardly noticeable.
1t is generally believed that the rule
will continue in effect no more than a
week. BY that time 1t is confidently
expected that the eastern banks Will
have recovered from their currency
shortage, and that usual exchange rou-
tine will be opened up.
The Committee on Resolutions ap-
pointed by President Henry Hutton
reported early this afternoon as fol-
lows:
AT a special meeting of the Canon
City Merchants association held at its

lowing statement and resolution was

RICHMOND FAMOUS
FOR TURTLE SOUP
Season for This DeIicacy Has
Just Opened.
MARKET AN ACTIVE ONE.

Turtle soup season opens in Rich
mond Saturday of this week. This
pleasing announcement has been
made by several famous among local
epicureans for their turtle soup. This
great eatfest will continue as long as
the supply of turtles holds out.
Richmond is Famous.
Richmond is famous all over the
state for its turtle soup and it is
stated that Richmond is the biggest
turtle market in this part of the coun-
try. Several men in this county spend
their entire time each spring and sum
mer securing turtles, which they dis
pose of here at a handsome profit.
Turtles are secured by these men from
all parts of the State from the Michi-
gan line to the Ohio river and there is
never a turtle brought here that es-
capes the soup bowl.

WOULD SPEAK IN CHURCH
CONGRESSMAN Watson Makes
A Suggestion.
VETERANS TO ACCEPT 1T.

New Castle, Ind, March 2S.-In ac-
cepting the invitation from G. w. Len
nard Post, G.. A. r. to deliver the dec
Grafton address at New Castle, Hon.
J. E. Watson presumes and properly,
to make a few valuable suggestions.
AS the result of long and varied ex-
perience in delivering addresses on
such occasions, he expresses the con-
viction that the proper place is in a
church. If, he argues, Decoration
day address is worth anything it is
worthy of being heard in the best
place 1t is not an occasion for the
relation of anecdotes or indulgence in
jest. but time for serious thought.
An audience should not be compelled
to stand. but be seated for greater
comfort and more profitable enjoy
ment.
Mr.. Watson suggests that the veter
ans march to the church by 2:30
o'clock. The suggestions of Mr.. Wat
son will probably receive the favor
able consideration of the Post, be-
lieving that by their adoption much
more satisfactory observance of the
day would be obtained.
Ever since the day has been observ.
ed the exercises have been held in the
open when the weather permitted. but
it is believed that when the custom
is once broken the new one will find
favor and be followed in the future.
