DUE TO OVER TRADING.
Comptroller Ridgley Issues State
ment on Cause of the Panic.

Washington, Dec 31.-W. B. Ridg-
ley, comptroller of the currency today
gave out statement. dealing largely
with financial conditions during the
year 1907. in which he says that 1.-THE
conditions which made this crisis pos
Sible, are the accumulated composite
results of many years of business. The
whole world has been over trading
and expanding and nowhere has it
been more rampant than in the United
States. The reaction was Inevitable
and though it might not have taken
the form of bank panic had we been
better prepared with such a banking
and currency system as we should
have, the time has come when some
or all must pay for our other indul-
gence.
at is the duty of the banks" says
the comptroller. "to restore business
to normal conditions by resuming
their functions as promptly and as
fully as possible.
fortunately there is not only the
strongest desire and disposition on the
part of the banks to do this, but con-
ditiOnS are such as to make it compar-
atively easy and to lead us to expect
much more prompt recovery than has
followed other similar financial crises
The report to the comptroller show that
the reserves in the central reserve cit
les were but 2Z-2 per cent, against the
legal requirements of 25 per cent The
40 reserve cities now show 24.72 per
cent of legal reserve or almost the full
legal minimum, while their total cash
means are 1855 per cent of their de-
posts.
"Of the forty cities 81 show legal re-
serves above 25 per cent, while ten Of
them show over 80 per cent of legal re-
serve and all but eight of them show
more than 25 per cent of total cash
means. The largest reserves are in the
Texas cities, Galveston and San Antonio

KILLED IN COLORADO.
Mysterious Murder of MIR. and Mrs
A. A. Maxwell, Formerly of Newton.

Newton, Kan, Dec. 31.-News has
Just been received here of the murder
of A. A. Maxwell and wife at their
home seven miles south of Lamar.
Colo. Mr.. and Mrs. Maxwell formerly
lived here and were well known peo-
pie in this section of the state:
The crime was committed some
time between Sunday night and We'd
nesday afternoon. Mr.. Maxwell at
tended Sunday school services Sunday
afternoon, arriving home about dusk.
His wife did not accompany him, but
was seen by neighbors Sunday even
ing.
1t could not have been a case of
to death, as was developed by an
autopsy held by the coroner at Lamar.
Maxwell could have killed his wife.
but he could not have taken his own
life in the manner in which he met
death.
The bodies were discovered Wednes-
day by a neighbor and his son. They
had passed the house on Tuesday and
noticed that it was closed tight When
they passed the following day their
attention was attracted by the lowing
of several cows and the neighing of
horses in the barnyard. The dumb
animals language told the neigh bors
that the stock had not been fed. An
Investigation was made. Looking
through a window of the cottage, the
man and boy saw MaxwelPs body
living on q nearby bed. II was seen at
first glance that the man was dead
Part of sheet was stuffed in his
mouth. The boy was sept to town
for aid The man waited two hours
for Sheriff Thomas to arrive. They
forced the door, and inside they found
Mrs. Maxwel's dead body by the side
Of her husband. He was a man OF
powerful frame. She WIS a fraH lit
tie woman. Part of sheet had been
forced into her mouth.
The house was not disarranged and
nothing seemed to be missing. Two
old bracelets and a gold watch were
found by an officer. Maxwelps
clothes were found in order on a chair
near the bed. Mrs. Maxwelrs dresses
had been neatly folded and laid on
another chair. There was absolutely
nothing to indicate the presence of an
intruder on robbery bent. So far as
the officers could learn, only one per-
son could have had an object in caus-
in the death of these God-fearing peo-
ple. That person is Edward, the 19-
vear-old boy who was adopted out of
an orphan asylum by the old people IN
Newton, when he was years old. He
had not lived with his foster parents
for a matter of three years, but he
would inherit their comfortable little
estate in case of their death. Maxwell
was located on the Erickson ranch,
about twenty miles distant, and taken
in charge yesterday morning. Tn e
son denies the accusations against him
ond saws he can prove an alibi
