LAST LO4N CERTIFICATES az.
BSnL Of North America Retlrsa it, s7SO-
. Balance.

The National Bank Of North America
paid on yesterday the balance due the
Clearing House Association by the liquida-
ton Of $3.50. 900 Of loan certificates. This
retires all the loan certificates that we're
issued In the panic days,
1t 10 twenty-five weeks since the oertih-
Gates we're first brought out, and this period
is three weeks longer than the time during
which the certificates we're in circulation
in the 1898 panic. This is accounted for
in part by the fact that the banks which
have prolonged the period we're all sus-
pended. The last certificate against a
solvent institution was retired on January
IS. There remained outstanding Mt that
time 6,520,0 00 against the National Bank
Of North America. the New Amsterdam
National Bank. the Mechanics ana Traders
and the Oriental.
The total number Of certihcates issued
" 500, 900 900, OF which 81, 900, 600 wal in
circulation at one time. The largest amount
outstanding against any one institution
was $4,000 900. All these figures break
previous records. A few Of the hanks
never used the certificates.

the Union Pacific 10 recoVsr certain profits
alleged to have been made by tho three
directors named In the sale Of securities
10 the Union Pacific at the expense Of the
roads stockholders.
This Ls the natural outcome OF the refusal
a short time & Of the Union Pacific board
OF directors as q whole to bring action on
the anne ground in behalf Of the road.
As the board Is dominated by Mr.. Harri-
man II was a certainty beforehand that
action would not DO taken by them, but q
formal demand IL always made by the
stockholders in cases Of this sort before
they institute suit on their own account.
Leonard M. Walstein, counsel for the
stockholders, said that the contention Of
the directors, In their formal refusal to
bring action. that the three directors in
question did not vote when the sale Of the
securities was authorized did not absolve
the directors from q charge Of violation
Of trust. The directors other contention.
that the stockholders had subsequently
ratified the boards action, he said was
also imperative as the stockholders did
not know they we're rAtifying any such
proposition when they gave their proxies

| truth is the most unpopular as 1t is the most unfamiliar of visitors to the human mind"
 But a good many people claim that in your newest book old Wives for New your picture is overdrawn and to that ex- tent untrue as a representation of Amer ican family life
 But" he interrupted you observe that they say It angrily Now whenever anyone denies anything angrily he would do we'll to take a long and careful look within himself. Why anger, if there is not truth in the story truth that is some- how personally disagreeable and disquie.- ing?
 esome people say that everything in old Wives for New is true enough, but that 1t is not wise to speak of these things Now this amounts to a defence of lying and suppressing truth and smooth ing things over. Haven't We had about enough of this kind of smooth, snug lying? Does it increase your respect for a liar to discover that he is lying because his salary depends2on it, or to get a judg- ship or a dog catchershlp? Or, because he. the husband, is lying for fear he would be less respectable if truthful? Or that she, the wife, is lying because she is getting board and clothtes and
  one tells you a truth should be suppressed for whatever lofty reason, be sure he or she means that the telling of that truth imperis his or her personal comfort n some way in which it ought to be imper- fed or destroyed.
 Some people say that Old Wives for New IS 'indelieate. That is not my fault I do not make life as 1t is. 1 do not establish the standard of delicacy and ndelicacy. And if truth is indelicate 1 rather think the trouble is not with the truth but with the standards of deli caey Healthy minds are not shocked. They look at all things cleanly and shud- der only at hypocrisy. Our coarse and ignorant habit of confusing the natural with the nasty leads us into moral degen- eration''
 MT. Phillips consulted his watch and voiced his regrets that the b minutes allotted for our talk had expired. He accompanied me to the door.
 "Lying is the great fault" he contn- ued earnestly. Tt is emptying the churches, is making politics and politi- clans a byeword, is destroying home life, is threatening to make the oncoming gen. erations selfish, cold and cynical under an even thicker envelope of shiny hypocrisy than that which drapes the real self the real motive and ambition of the present generation. Let us stop lylng. Surely the truth even the naked truth, could not do more harm less good"
 That was the final word from the mlll- tant young author, for just then the ele- Yator shot down and bore the interviewer cut of hearing.
