FAILURE OF THE WESTINGHOUSE'S Pittsburg Financial Furry Ended by Prompt Action
 of the Clearing
 House.
INABILITY TO MEET
 MATURING LOANS
Reason Given for the Elm barassment of the Elec- tric Manufacturing
 Company.

Pittsburg, Pa, Oct. eS.-iA furry in local financial circles, caused by the embarrassment of four concerns of the Westinghouse interests, was quickly ended here to-day by the prompt ac- ton of the Pittsburg Clearing House association and the Plttsburg Stock exchange.
 Tonight the Westinghouse Electric & Manufacturing company, the west inghouse Machine company, and the Security Investment company, hold ing company for the Westinghouse in- terests, are in the hands of receivers appointed Iby Judge Ewing of the Unit ed States circuit court. IA fourth con- cern, the Nernst Lamp company, will be turned over to receivers in the morning.
 The Pittsburg Stock exchange, which was closed promptly this morning when informed of the situation by the Pitts burg Clearing House association, will likely remain closed tomorrow. This action is taken for the purpose of pre- venting any unnecessary sacrifice of values by a heavy liquidation of stocks.
 Statements issued late to-day by George Westinghouse, prominent bank CTS, officers of he Stock exchange and the clearing house committee show conelusively that the financial situa- ton here is sound and there is no dan. ger.
 The inability to secure funds to pay off maturing loans caused the embar- rassment.
 1 Tonight the local situation is be- lieved to be In better condition than it has been for some time. As a precautionary measure how ever Senator Knox of Pennsylvania in a telephonic conversation from | Washington with Secretary of the Treasury Cortelyou at New York, re- quested that the government deposits in Pittsburg national banks be in. creased. Late to-day advices were re. ceived here that the secretary had ar. ranged to place additional funds ir local institutions. The amount, how ! ever, Is not known.
 That the local banks are in goot condition was shown to-day when ii became known that the Diamond Ma. tional bank had sent $100,00o in gold tC New York institutions. Several other 1 local banks took similar action.
 The embarrassment of the Westing. house companies was wholly unexpect ed. The suspension of the Stock ex. change caused alarm, but almost i'm. mediately statements of a reassurins | character were issued and from al sides the action taken was giver i hearty endorsement
 Six receivers were appointed by thu court to-day and all required to givt Q bond of S100,OOO each. They are: Fol Westinghouse Electric & Manufactur. ing company, T. H. Given, H s. A Stewart and E. M Herr
 For the Westinghouse Machine com. pany: William McConway, w. II. Don ner and F. D. Keller. The Fidelty Title & Trust company was appointed receiver for the Security 1nvestmen 1 company, but was not required to fur nish a bond.

The servant problem was under dis, cusstou. and experiences" were being related. Several women stopped talk i1g at the same moment, and the si. leuce. which had lasted nearly two sec onds. was broken by a young mutrom who said: "But ladies. that's all noth- ing to what happened to me last week.

Anpi Indian TraditiOns.

The HoDl Indians Of Arizona have DO written literature, but an almost bouudlpss store of oral traditions which age handed down unimpaired to each generation in turn and which form the guiding principle of their re- Hgious belief and of their whole life, says the Craftsman. Every clan, and there are a number Ul family clans maElng up the various Hopi towns, has its own kiya. or underground cere- mouial chamber, entered by Q ladder through a square opening in the roof
 which Is but foot OF two above the general level of the ground. Here the education of the boys fs carried on, be- ginning at the age of seven or eight years. They are instructed day by day in the literature, history and myths of the tribes, the priests being the teachers. Without writing and wIthou, books the Hopi have an eN- teuslye literature. and that the utmost accuracy is observed in its oral trans mission from generation to generation is revealed by certain comparisons with tuc records made by the spanish explorers in the sixteenth century.

"My son, who is now twenty-twO years of age, when he was four months old began to have eczema on his face, spreading quite rapidly until he was nearly covered, We had all the doctors around us and some from larger placess but no one helped him a particle. The eczema was something terrible, and the doctors said it was the worst case they ever saw. At times his whole body and face were covered, all but his feet. 1 had to bandage his limbs and armsi his scalp was just dreadful. J used many kinds of patent medicines before trying the CutiCura Remedies, but all to no avail. A friend teased me to try Cuticura.

THEATRICAL NOTES.

The Time the Place and the Girl"
a comedy with music, will be presented
at the Towle opera house on Sunday
Jan. 20 by the Askin- Singer company
with an excellent company, including
among other players of reputation,
Arthur DEACON, Miss Ida Emerson, Miss
Lucia Moore and Miss Violet McMillen.
This is the musical play which has run
for six months in Chicago and is still
the particular favorite of the theater-
goers of that town. which has had I'M
til now a monopoly on it's attractions
ever since it was produced. 1t was
written by VIII r. Hough and Frank
r. Adams, with the musical assistance
of Joseph Howard, the long distance
song hit champion of the world.
The plot is to the effect that Happy
Johnny Hicks, square young gam
bier, has been spending a night in
Boston with his pals, Laurie Farnham
and Tom Cunningham two rich men 5
sons In a fight with some card sharks
Cunningham hits man over the head
with a wine bottle, and fearing the
consequences the trio make their es-
cape before the police arrive. Hoping
to find q hiding place and also to take
a needed rest. they find their way to a
sanitarium in the Virginia mountains
Cunningham meets his sweetheart
there, and Hicks falls in love with
the pretty head nurse. Molly Kelly
who proves to be the sister of the man
injured by Cunningham in the esca-
2ade in Boston.
This interesting situation is en-
| HANGED by the fact that the sanitarium
is placed under quarantine. and as the
servants are all absent, the guests
have to serve themselves. In the
course of the play Hicks shoulder.
Cunningham's guilt and thus put.
| himself lin wrong. as he expresses it
| with the nurse.
| The singing and dancing number:
manifest the genius of Ned WayburI
| for such things. and there is not
chorus feature in the show that is no
new and original. The company is
large and the production is an unusu
| ally artistic one.
