BANKERS CONTROL AFFAIRS

New York, Oct. 21.-The disquieting
banking situation, which for several
Gays has threatened some Of the lead
ing speculative banks and has caused
apprehension throughout the banking
community, shows a decided improve
nlent. There was no heavy run on
any Of the banks, business proceeded
without evidence that public conf
donce had been seriously shaken and
the reports Of the clearinghouse, al
though not very favorable as to tbs
bank chiefly affected of late, the Mer-
camille National bank, showed on the
whole that nothing in the nature of a
banking crisis was Imminent. Chief
interest ceptered in the meeting OF
the clearinghouse committee, which
balances the debts and Credits of the
various banks, thus furnishing a pretty
close indication Of their business
status. The committee was in ses.
sion more than an houE It soon be-
came known that the debit balance OF
the Mercantile National bank amount
cd to about $1,900,00O, which was con.
siderably more than the clearinghouse
had expected. However, this unfavor
able item was Offset by the fact that
the debit of the bank represented the
business of tho last week, when the
Heinze-Morse regime was In control
Therefore tho clearinghouse took
prompt steps to meet it, thus giving
the new management tho support
which had been promised. The debit
balance of the National Bank Of North
America was found to be $850,000, OF
the Mechanics and Traders bank
100000 and the New Amsterdam Ma
tional bank 100000. These balances
were not such as to require the assist
ance of the clearinghouse, as the
banks themselves were quite able tc
handle tho amount. When the com
mittee adjourned it was announced
that all obligations Of the day had
been met.
In view of tho foregoing showing
the sentiment in and about tho clear
tnghouSe was one Of buoyancy anG
confidence and this was soon reflected
by q marked improvement in thu
stock market.
Manager Shearer said that tt;
clearinghouse now had tho situation
well In hand and that the genera
status Of banking In New York woulC
undergo decided improvement from
: now on as q result Of the safeguard
adopted. en4ss}9{T &s..r-:.41E,.

fIUKRAfI! CONRAD
FOR GOVERNOR.

w. c. Conrad was in kalispell this
y eek aaG his arrival created some po-
liLical talk among the local talent.
+ >l.l much of this is interesting as
i may have bearing on the sieua-
ton which is to devetope in Montana
next year in naming candidates by the
several parties for official place.
Mr.. Conrad has developed into a ma
tional character, and much of thts
reputation has been created by the
fact that some Of the eastern papers,
and notably those at the national cap
itai, at one time advanced his claims
as presidential candidate On the
democratic ticket And, Of course, his
sttI ecr in Montana as Il senatorial
candida te in times pas. has made hi1n
Or @t :hu n,osl IscE..Ttht democrats
ii. our state
The talk which has been going the
rounds of Kalispell politicians the
present week is that many Of Mr..
Conrad's friends are grooming him
for governor next year. It is pointed
out that he would make an ideal can
djdate, that he has rare executive a.
bility, that his party owes it to him
to place him at the head Of the state
ticket next fall, that his residence i'll
the northern part of the state ana
that his holdings in this part OF
hinrfnra rot "A fS WIT F,,,
the democratic convention and that
generally he is an ideal and most
powerful candidate.
All of this is not only interesting
political gossip, but, from a republi-
can point of view, it Is most alarming.
For, while Montana is now a strong
republican safe it must be conceded
that Mr.. Conrad would be formid-
, able candidate and it would take the
strongest man we could put up for
| this position to bea him and even
then the chances are extremely good
that the race would be a close one.
The reason for this is that Mr.. Con-
rad, through his great enterprises, his
pleasing personality and his force OF
character has made host Of friends
all over the state regardless of polit-
lcal affiliations, and, of course, all OF
these elements will strongly enter in
to contest of this sort.
From a democratic point of view,
Mr.. Conrad's nomination would prove
a master political stroke, but looking
at the question from the viewpoint of
of republican success, the matter may
well be followed with much interest
by those who are largely responsible
for the selection Of the republican
ticket next fall.-Libby Western News.
