question. but he further admits that he
could have known this fact had he
made the proper inquiry of the officers
in possession of the same.
We admit that the information
sought by your department was such
as you had a right to ask, and it was
our duty TO grant, and we now promise
you that if you will rescind the order
of yesterday, barring this bank as
reserve agent for Kansas state and
private banks and trust companies,
that never in the future will any deputy
or representative from your depart
ment be refused any information which
this bank can give. We admit that
this bank might be justly criticised for
permitting the obligation in our bank
in the manner in which it was carried,
and promise that pever in the future
will we carry any written obligations
of banks that do not fully appear upon
the records of this bank.
Our bank is in perfectly solvent
condition, and if you have any ques-
ton as to our solvency. you are at per-
feet liberty at any time to make such
investigation as you may desire to, and
in the light of the above Information,
we now sincerely ask that you reSclnd
the order of yesterday and permit this
bank to again act as reserve agent Tor
banks in your state, and We promise
you that the lesson which the transac-
ton has taught us viii be Sufhc1ent
that in the future you will never have
occasion to regret the action which we
ask.
Mr. Thornton feels very, very dis
tressed over the oversight and neglect
in this case.
With great respects,
c. NJ. SMITH,
President.
JOHN c. KNORPP,
Vice President.
d. THORNTON
Cashier.
Mr.. Royce said in his reply;
Il feel that your bank is entitled
to severe criticism for making a loan
to the cashier of a bank on his indi-
vidual note with written obligation
on the side, binding his bank to the
payment of such note, even though it
went to the banks credit, which it did
in this case 1 feel also that your
cashier is only. justly criticised for
answering a direct question from the
banking department that no such con-
tract exists, without making sufficient
| inquiry to know whether in fact it is
| in his bank or not.
THE investigation which 1 have
made has been such as to convince me
| that no real harm was intended by the
cashier who failed to furnish the in
| formation requested, and being thus
| convinced and on your promise that
nothing of the kind will ever occur in
| the future, 1 am disposed to rescind
! the order made yesterday

ton, That Was Adopted.

NEW YORK, May l3-The
twenty-seventh annual meeting OF the
Actors fund of America was held yes
terday. Less than fifty Of the 1900
members were present. Daniel
.Frohman, the president, said that in
the 27 years Of the funds existance
lit had disbursed more than million
dollars to the needy, but that the last
year had shown a deficit Of $27O0O.
VIM. H. Crane said that the troub-
le with the actors is that it is hard
to find them when they are prosper
Gus. Thereupon the speaker offered
a resolution to ask all the managers
in America to insert clause in the
contracts to deduct from the fourth
week the annual 81 dues for the
fund. The resolution was unani-
mously carried. The following off
GERS were elected for the ensuing
year: Daniel Frohman, president;
]. R. Grismer, vice-president; Tony
Pastor, second vice-president; Henry
B, Harris, treasurer; Frank Mckee

PECULIAR ACCIDENT.
Professional Weight Litter Crushed
by Mass of Iron Is Dying.

NEW YORK, May l3-Crushed
by mass OF iron weights which he
was attempting to lift, Warren Lin
coin Travis, professional weight
litter, is dying in hospital. Travis
was practising in Brooklyn gym
nasium for an exhibition which he
intended giving at park this sum
mer, when the accident happened.
He intended to lift 20 men on plat
form on his shoulders. Yesterday
he arranged a platform resting on
two horses and placed on the plat
form dumbbells, three weights ag-
gregating about 5000 pounds in all.
Twice he lifted the platform on his
shoulders successfully but the third
time one OF the horses broke and the
shifting of the weights that followed
knocked over the other horse, which
struck Travis, telling him. The en-
tire mass OF weights crushed him to
the floor. Unable to free himself,
Travis shouted for help, and the jan
itor Of The gymnasium summonsed
assistance from the street. Several
men quickly removed the weights,
but Travis, when removed to hos
pital, was found to be suffering from
internal injuries, with a dislocated
hip and scores Of cuts and bruises.
The surgeons say he will probably
die.

MRS. HOWARD GOULD.
Bequeathed One Dollar by the Will OF
Her Father Who Died Last Week

CHICAGO, May l3.-A dispatch
to the Record Herald from Pittsfeld,
ILL.,, says:
Mrs. Howard Could, wife OF the
multi-milionaire New Yorker, and her
sister, Mrs. Sun Yue, wife Of San
Francisco Chinaman, we're bequeath-
ed one dollar each by the will Of their
father, Solomon Perry Clemen, filed
here yesterday His estate, which is
valued at $4,000, IS left to his widow
during her lifetime, with the excep-
ton Of the two dollars mentioned.
Mr. Clemens, 20 years Of age, was
adjudged insane by commission IN
the Pike county court, March 6 last,
and sent to the asylum at Jackson
vile, Ills. The commitment was for
the remainder OF his life and he died
there May 8. He was totally blind
and in most serious physical condi-
ton. So far as known no word ever
came to the desolate man from either
of his daughters, although they were
apprised of his commitment to the
asylum. On behalf Of the girls it has
been said that their father was not
always kind to them and that they
were practically forced to go out and
combat the world for means to live.

FREIGHT RATE.
Entire Campaign Against Increase
May Hinge on Case Now Be-
fore a Federal Court

CHICAGO, May l3.-upon the de-
cision OF Judge Kohlsaat OF the led
eral court in the case OF the Beatrice
and Blue Valley Creamery Companies
against the Pere Marquette, Grand
Trunk and Michigan Central Railroads
may hinge the entire campaign
against the general advance in freight
rates. Buried in a comparatively un-
important injunction suit in which the
final arguments we're heard yesterday
| is the whole issue which will serve as
prevedent in the coming great con-
test.
Judge Koblsaat's decision will de-
termine whether federal court has
power to enjoin the railroads from
advancing rates pending hearing
before the Interstate Commission
which alone is granted power to de-
termine questions Of unreasonable
ness and discrimination, or whether
| il can sit only as a court OF review
after the opinion Of the commission
has been given. The case in which
Judge Kohlsaat's decision will decide
this question is the application OF the
Beatrice and Blue Valley Creamery
Companies OF Nebraska for a prelim-
mary injunction to restrain the
Michigan Central, Grand Trunk and
Perc Marquette from advancing their
freight rates on cream pending a
hearing before the Interstate Com
mercc Commission as to the reason
ableness OF the advance.
