Marvin Harris, receiver of the Capital City Savings bank, the negro institution which went in- to the hands of a receiver here about six weeks ago, is finding great difficulty in securing data for his report on the condition of the bank. He finds considerable paper, a great deal of which is worthless, and the assets of the bank are very small in compari- son to the liabilities. With the officers of the bank to fall back on to make up the deficiency, re- ceiver Harris hopes ultimately to pay the depositors and creditor dollar for dollar. Those who have gone into the case closely are of the opinion that M. w. Gibbs, who retired as president a short time before the closing of the bank g doors, and who has been freely sued by depositors. was duped by others connected with the bank. There is talk now O
 having an investigation by the next grand jury, but the laxity of the state laws in this line, causes many to doubt if the state can secure conventions.

Protests and Remonstrances
of Societies
Antagonism Develops Before the
Nature of Document Is
Made Known

WASHINGTON, March S.-Irish oppo-
sition, which. it is asserted. defeated
the arbitration treaty negotiated by
secretary Olney and Lord Pauncefote
II years ago, now menaces the new
arbitration treaty which has been
evolved by Secretary Root and Ambas-
sador Bryce. Already the state depart
ment has been deluged with remon-
strances and protests from Irish patrf-
otic organizations, all directed against
the new convention
Moreover, this opposition has deveI-
oped before anything specific as TO the
nature and scope of the new treaty has
been made known officially. There has
been nothing more than a reference to
the subject in the British parliament,
and some statements in explanation
based on that declaration in American
newspapers. So the opponents, it is
declared. are in the singular position of
directing their fire without knowledge
that there is an enemy, for. it is said,
drawn upon lines that free it from the
objection made TO the OIney- Paunce-
fote convention
In the former treaty il was alleged
that America stood in danger of losing
territory as the result of an adverse
arbitration In the present instance
while the rule of the state department
prevents the publication of any details
it is the understanding of the officials

Warning to Biggy From
Ireland

Acting on advfces received from En-

an effort to locate one. particular sect
which. they had been informed. was
making use of its religious methods
to win over unsuspecting girls for the
Chinese slave traffic.
The band was driven out OF the
British isles last December. Chief
Biggy received information yesterday
from John A. Belfast. chief OF police
of Enniskillen, Ireland. stating that the
organization had won over three Eng
lish girls and was taking them TO
China through San francisco with the
avowed purpose of making them mis-
sionaries TO their cause Since their
departure additional information was
brought to light indicating that the
religion was mere guise and that the
sole intention Of the movement was to
get the girls into China, where they
would be sold as slaves How many
girls this sect has won over in the
United States can only be conjectured-
The sect is now said to be IN San
Francisco and the instant Chief Biggy
received the advices from Ireland he
ordered out details of police to investf-
