The annual meeting of the South
Paris Savings Bank corporation was
held at the bank at o'clock Thursday
The report of the treasurer showed de-
posits at the close of the preceding
week of S359,S7l.12 The increase over
last year Is about $500. For a number
of years there has been an almost uni
form increase of deposits at the rate of
$1,000 per month. The small increase
this year is readily accounted for by the
fact well known that between $1,000
and $4,000 was withdrawn from de-
posits in this bank by people OF this
community, for investment in the stock
of the newly organized Paris Trust Co.
No one of the fifty men comprising
the board of incorporators of the bank
has died within the past year, con-
sequently there were no vacancies to be
filled.

CAPTAIN HUTCH|NS
A NERVOUS WRECK

Washington, Feb. 27.-Captain
Hamilton Hutchins, who was relieved
of his command of the battleshlp
Kearsage by Admiral Sperry just be-
fore the feet left Gibraltar, is to be
examined by a special medical board,
which will look into his mental and
physical condition. His mental con-
dition is said to be most pitiable.
1t was because of the great nerv-
BUSINESS under which Hutchins labored
that he was, at his own request, re-
lieved of his command. He told
Sperry he did not feel willing to trust
himself on the bridge of the vessel
during any length of time, and felt
that in justice to the department and
to the officers and men under his
command he should be relieved of the
responsibility of bringing the ship
back to the United States. His con-
dition is believed to be due to the
great strain and responsibilities Incl
dent to the voyage around the world.

HOPEFUL VIEW
FOR VENEZUELA

Washington, Feb. 27.-Special Agent
Buchanan, who has rturned from Ven
ezuela, takes hopeful view OF the
future of Venezuela. He says that
economic conditions there are improv-
ing and that the changed conditions
will result in the opening of mines
and the development of the natural
resources of the country. President
Gomez, he says, lis a competent, hon.
est official and is trying to undo the
wrong of his predecessors. Already
he has abolished the tobacco monopoly
so that anyone now can manufacture
that article. Generally the people
were ignorant of disputes with for
eign countries, their only source OF
information being the publication IN
the official newspaper, Ell Constitu-
tional, which published only what Cas-
tro desired to make public.
Venezuela will send minister TO
the United States as soon as Russell
leaves for Caracas.
