.fINANCIfRS ARE INDICTED
THREE JENKINS BROTHERS OF
NEW YORK CHARGED WITH
FORGERY.

New York Nov. 27.-John G. Jen-
kins, Jr., until recently president OF
the Jenkins Trust company of Brook
lyn; Frank jenkins, deposed head OF
the williamsburg Trust company, and
Fred Jenkins, formerly a director OF
the latter institution, were jointly in
dicted yesterday for forgery in the
third degree.
The indicted men are brothers, and
the charge against them grew out OF
loans made the brokerage firm OF f
& J. G. Jenkins, Jr., & Co. by the Jen'
kins Trust company. The transac-
tons were disclosed during the examl-
nation of the trust company's books
made by the state banking department
after the institution had suspended.
These revelations with others
brought about the receivership and
later were laid before the Kings coun-
ty grand jury, which has concerned
itself with banking irregularities IN

ident Howard Maxwell, who yesterday

Robbers Lock Officials in Vault and
Gather in $4,000 in Coin.
Bloomington, ILL.,, Nov. 81. - The
State bank at Clinton was held up and
robbed of $4,000 in coin shortly before
o'clock yesterday afternoon by two
men, who made their escape. 1t was
just a few minutes after closing time
when the men appeared in the bank
and with drawn revOlvers forced
George Argo, assistant cashier; Cash
Ter Murphy and Bookkeeper John
Young to enter the big vault, which
they locked. The bulk of the money
had already been placed in the curren-
CIV safe of the vault and the time lock
set, but $4,000 of gold and silver re-
manned on the counter. This the rob-
bers shoveled into bag and took
with them to the hotel Renlon, where
they had previously engaged a room.
They had arranged the money in rolls
so that it could be easily carried and
were just about to leave the hotel
when officers learned of their pres
ence and attempted to break in the
door,
Before they succeeded, however, the
robbers jumped from a window onto
an adjoining roof, taking $500 in gold
and leaving $1,000 in silver in the
room. 1t was dark when the men es-
capped from the hotel and all trace OF
them was lost. A posse was organized
and the country is being secured.

SHIP MONEY TO MOVE CROPS
MORE CONFIDENT TONE PRE-.
Walls -NORMAL CONDITIONS
ALMOST REACHED.

Washington, Nov. 27.-A more con-
fident tone in regard to the success of
the new loans prevailed at the treas
ury department yesterday than at any
time since the announcement of the
loans a week ago The visits of Mr..
Morgan on Friday and Saturday were
followed yesterday by a visit from
James B. Forgan, president of the
First National bank of Chicago Mr..
Forgan saw the president, Secretary
Cortelyou and Treasurer Treat, and
expressed his belief that the banks
throughout the country would soon be
in position to resume cash payments.
The subject is of peculiar interest to
the treasury officials because for near
ly month government receipts have
been declining as a direct result of
the scarcity of currency.
Bankers Anxious to Resume.
There seems to be a general desire
among the bankers in New York, Chi
cago and other subtreasury cities and
financial centers to resume currency
payments at the earliest possible mo-
ment, and Mr.. Forgan's visit was
made with view of learning the
views of the treasury officials on this
particular subject Mr. Forgan repre-
sented that the Chicago banks would
be able to resume upon an understand
ing with the banks in other cities
within a week or ten days at the lat
est. st. Paul and Minneapolis banks,
he said, were quite ready to resume
at any time and might take the initia-
tive in this respect very soon. 1t is
believed among the treasury officials
that complete understanding was ar
rived at between the banks in New
York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Cincin-
natl, st. Louis, New Orleans and San
Francisco, by which there will be a
general resumption of currency pay
ments within the next few days.
Ship Money to Move Crops.
1t is learned that New York and
Chicago are at present making daily
shipments of large sums to the crop
moving centers of the West and
South, and it is confidently believed
that these shipments will be continued
in increasing amounts till normal con-
ditions are again reached, or until the
necessity for them has passed.
In addition to the discussion of cash
resumption, Mr.. Forgan left tangible
evidence of his visit in a subscription
by the Chicago clearing house banks
for $2,500,0O0 of the new one-year
certificates. Additional amounts of
these certificates are steadily coming
to the treasury as security for bank
note circulation. Subscriptions for the
Panama per cent bonds are also ar
irving in large numbers.

PART OF HIS TITLE
DuMA MEMBERS DECREE THAT
TITLE OF AUTOC. AT MUST
BE CUT OFF.
WHOLE SECTIONS WITHDRAW
DRAMATIC SCENE is ENACTED
WHILE MEASURES ARE DIS
CUSSED.

st. Petersburg, Nov. 27.-The duma
last night decreed that the title of au-
tocrat, which has been borne by the
emperors of Russia for centuries, is 10
longer tenable with the regime inaugu-
rated by the manifesto issued by En-
peror Nicholas in 1905. At the close of
a great constitutional debate the Rus
sian parliament, by vote of 112 to
246, rejected the word "autocrat" and
then adopted reply to the address
from the throne unanimously, amid
scenes of excitement and prolonged
singing of the national anthem.
The result is regarded as a fine vic
tory for the Constitutional Democrats
under the leadership of Prof Milukoff.
The final vote was taken after the
demonstrative withdrawal of the ex-
IRENE right Social Democrats, men,
bers of the Group of Toll and the
Poles.
Dramatic Scene.
After stirring debate which lasted
until almost midnight, M. Plevokko.
the deputy from Moscow, summed up
the arguments on either side and urg-
ed the leaders of the Octoberist party
to draft as judicious a compromise as
possible
The house proceeded to vote on the
amendments to the reply, taking I'D
first the word t'autocrat," following the
rejection of which there was dra-
matte scene.
The members of the extreme right
held hurried conclave in corner of
the chamber. Count Dhorrere de.
clared that the monarchists could not
participate in a vote on an address in
which the emperor was shorn of his
rightful prerogatives. Thereupon fifty
of the extremists left the chamber.
Poles Are Turned Down.
Prof. Milulloff on behalf of the Con-
stitutional Democrats expressed his
willingness to accede to the omission
of the specified word constitution"
and the moderate members of the
right followed suit. adhering to the Oc-
toberist program.
The duma then took up d series Of
minor amendments that had been pro.
posed by M, Dmowski Of Warsaw
which related to the aspirations of
the Poles and the other subordinate
nationalities of the empire, and reject
ed all of these by an immense major
ity. Thereupon the Poles declared
that they would refrain from voting.
The remaining parties in the duma
accepted the address unanimously.
