 Confirmed.
GETS SPECIAL PRIVILEGES
Treasurer Stanley Believes Supreme Court Has Not Had Time to
 Settle Case.

San Diego, Cal, June 4,-The steam morning from Ensenada. brought the re- port that William F. Walker, the New Britain Comp abscondlng banker ar rested in Lower California after long chase and who was fighting extradi- ton, has won his case In Mexican courts and that orders revoking the re- commitment to the Ensenada prison were expected to reach Ensenada soon

MAY INCREASE SALARIES
Bankers Interested In the Case of
 Teller Muir.
New York, June A.

New York, June A.
 Many bankers were discussing to- day the scale of salaries paid to clerks and tellers, attention of the banking community having been called again to a discussed often in the past-by the discovery of the thefts of Charles T. Muir, receiving teller of the Forty-second street branch of the Corn Exchange bank, disclosed by his suicide, after he had been promoted to the post of paying teller Muir had been with the bank for twenty years
 Muir, who was thlrty-seven years old and man of good habits, receiv- cd a salary of $l,500 a year, and had been promised a raise If he succeeded in his new position. He shot himself because he knew that with his promo ton would come tho discovery that he had stolen s9,06S.72 at various times since the birth of his first child, few years ago,
 These circumstances have directed attention to the lot of the hundreds of clerks of New York banks. The pos .ltion of paying teller is a responsible one, yet even the largest banks seldom allow more than $4,000 q year for the work, and some of the smaller uptown banks give their men as little as S1,- 200 annually.
 As one banker pointed out to-day, this is peculiarly distressing sui- eide, since Muir was not dssipated, and did not use the money he took for riotous living but apparently to pay doctors bills and living expenses. '' This banker added: Men do not steal because they have small salaries. Most bank dcfauters are in fact well paid But the lot of bank clerks in New York like most other clerks is not happy. They are wretchedly under paid judging by the compensation given other classes of intelligent la. | bor."
 Bank officers have been so impress. ed with Muir's case that lt Is possi. ble some banks may readjust theil pay schedules so as to give their em. ployes higher salaries.
