Twelve Companies Coming

companies of infantry, one battery
and the hosp tai aid and signal corps
of the Indiana national guard are
gathering here under orders from
Governor Hanly to maintain peace
during the strike of the employees
of the street railway. There is no
disturbance today.
This comes as the result OF con-
ference last night between Adjutant
General Percy, Mayor Gu:hrie, the
sheriff, city officials and several
prominent citizens, when 1T was de-
cided to ask Governor Hanly to send
state troops here at once, the police
having worn out. AS a result Gen.
eral Percy telephoned Governor
Hanly details of the situation and
he promptly ordered out Battery A
and four companies of Indianapolis
and eight companies from other
cities in the state.

before the certificates are all re-
tired"
Cash payments are being re-
sumed in nearly all transactions,
stated r. l.. Rutter, secretary Of

pany. ''There is general feeling
of confidence and the outlook is
bright. About so per cent of the
clearing house certificates have been
retired"
"One has only to go among our
merchants to learn how cash is
taking the place of clearing house
certificates" stated Cashier w. D..

made cash sales of over $500 Mon
day received only $40 in clearing
house certificates
The certificates will be practic-

They have served their purpose and
bankers will be as much pleased as
the general public when they are
taken up and burned"
All bankers declared that cash
which had been hidden by timid de-
positors is rapidly coming out.
