COOKS COULDN'T
STAND THE PACE

Before a crowd of 800 the Whit
man college basketball team won
over the Cooks gym team last
night at Gonzaga college in a
whirlwind finish by a score of 40
to 81. The college boys had scare
before they had the game safely
tucked away, The Cooks started
off with a flourish and at the end
of the first half had the game by
a score of q to 16.
The collegiass came back
strong in the second half and by
superior condition, as much as any
thing else, won out over the fast
firing clubmen. The Belt boys for
Whitman were the bright stars of
the game and shot many goals
from the center of the field.

TWENTY-ONE BILLION
DEPOSITED IN BANKS
Total Resources StoredAway
In Country Shows S24O
Per Capita.

Just a trihe over twenSy-one billions
OF dollars represents the uutaI resources
Of the banks Of the Uniscd States.
In other words, there is per capita
of $40 or whereabouts, for the entire
population OF the country. fl the depos-
its, capital and surplus, of all the
banks of the country.
No other country in the world can
make a showing comparable to this.
The figures are so big that they can
hardly be grasped. 1t is a curious fact
that until now there has never beer
statement Of this kind for all tbe
banks Of the country, for the reason
that there are so many kinds of banks,
and they report to so many different
supervisory authOrity-some Of them, in-
deed, reporting to no authority at all
that il has never before been possible
to get the figures for al the banks
as of a fixed date.
The monetary commission has sue
ceeded in getting such a consolidated
statement. II has just keen made up
and its conclusions given out for the
public. The consolidated statement rep
resents the 6,S93 national banks II, 3I9
State, l.7O3 mutual and stock savings
,497 private banks, and J.O79 trust com
panies. 1t is a fair statement that the
entire banking business of the country
is included, the omissions being neg
ligible. The statement is as Of April
% last.
Cooperation of the Comptroller Of
the Currency with the banking authOri-
ties OF the States. and Will the mana
gers of private banks which in some
States are not subject 10 examination
or periodical reports, made the CONSOLE
dated report possible. 1t develops that
the national banks have considerably
less than half the business; in fact
they hold less than five billion dollars
of deposits, while all other banks have
over nine billion dollars.
National banks have 40 per cent Of
the aggregate resources, 36 per cent Of
individual deposits. and a per cent OF
the loans. They are credited with 45
per cent of the surplus and profits, 50
per cent of the capital, and "a per cent
Of the cash holdings.
The number OF banks has more than
doubled since 1900. and bank resources
have increased % per cent It is believed
that no parallel to this increase has
ever been known in a like time in this
or any other country.

The manner I'm which this Govern

nation feels today, as II felt in 1904

which may be derived by the surround

canal should rightfully 60 to II.
In more than one respect Colombia is
maintaining an attitude which must
command the respect Of every one who
believes in fair play. Had Il not been
for the United States. the state Of Pan
anna would not today be a republic.
This Government has offered a SOD TO
Columbia in the form of $50, 600 a year

OF $25O,O0o was made two years ago; a
similar appropriation was made last

TONOPAH MINING.

In the past week 342 feet of new
ground has been opened up in the
workings of the Tonopah Mining
OF this amount the Miz-
pah is credited with 316k feet, the
Silver Top n%inety-one and one-half
feet and the Red Plume thrity-four
feet. The Mizpah shaft was extend
ed eight feet and is now down a dis
lance of 1884 feet from the surface.
The Red Plume shaft was sunk thir-
teen feet, and has reached a depth
of 494 feet. The bottom shows a
broken oxidized formation of little
value. When this shaft reaches a
point below what will be the 500
foot level, or the 900 level of the
Mizpah, a station will be cut out
which will be connected with the
Mizpah workings.
Progress is reported from the dia-

from the 740-foot level Of the Silver
Top.
The company is now working three
shifts in the sinking of the shaft,
which is being sent down as fast as
possible. The flow of water has in
creased and will average about forty
gallons per minute. No difficulty is
experienced in pumping the water to
the surface as the pump on the 1900
foot level has performed it's work
satisfactorily during the week. 1t is
only necessary to run this pump
about two hours daily to empty the
stump.
No change is reported through the
property where extensive develop
met work is under way. On the
240-foot level of the Silver Top stop

aggregated 1870 tons. A total of
n~inety-two feet of development work
was recorded for the week. or this

seventy-four feet in drifting and six

Is now out Ais feet from the main

is being extracted from a vein that
averages from two to four feet in
width.

the west stope north of the shaft has
been advanced eight feet and is now
up seventy-four feet above the level.
The face is in low grade quartz. No.

EIGHT A AGO

Eight years ago when Tonopah was
in its infancy, and the residents,
about fifty in number, lived in tents,
the place was visited by a spell Of
weather that bore a strong resem-
blance to the kind we have been en-
Toying for the last few days. At that
time the camp was visited by a severe
wind and snow storm and many of
the tents were blown down, causing
great hardship to the miners on ac-
count Of the cold. Some people here
today talk of present %hardships, while
in fact they dwell in palaces and live
on the ~luxuries of the land.
