OROv|LLE LISTED
FOR POSTAL BANK.
48 SeCOnd-CIasS PoStoffiCeS Are
Designated as Savings
DepositorieS
Associated Pressl

WASHINGTON, Oct. 22.-The board
of trustees of the postal savings bank
system today approved list of forty
eight second class postomces at which
the plan will be given its first trial.
The list includes one Office for each
state and territory.
The trustees, are Postmaster General
Hitchcock, Secretary F. MacVeagh and
Attorney General Wickersham. They
met in the office of the postmaster
general today. The list they formally
approved was selected after careful
investigation by the postoffice officials
with a view to making the first test
of the service as thorough as possible
under the limited appropriation of
100000 provided by congress, which
must cover all, the expenses. of equip
ment. including the engraving and
printing of forms, certificates, bonds,
clerical assistance, etc.
owing to the smallness Of this ap-
preparation it is impossible to estab-
lish postal savings banks during the
first year. in the large cities.
Communities were chosen in which
the conditions were considered excep-
tionally favorable for the development
of a postal savings business, mostly
Industrial centers where wage earners
will be specially benefited by the kind
of banking facilities afforded. A large
patronage of the service is expected
by the officials from foreign-born
Americans who are now remitting
considerable sums to their native
countries, usually in the form of
money orders. Many of the places Sc
lected, particularly those in the west,
are not adequately provided with other
savings institutions. The offices desig-
mated today include Globe, Ariz.; Oro-
vile. Cal; Leadville, Colo; Coeur
d'AIene, Idaho; Anaconda, Mont; Car
son city, New; Ration, N, NJ; Wahpe-
ton, N. D.; klamath Falls, Ore; Dead

FITZGERALD VOWS
He IS GU|LTLESS
Dynamite Suspect, a Nervous
Wreck from Third Degree,
Declares His Innocence

Pallid from his injuries, confinement
and rigorous s-questioning by the
police of two cities, Morris Fitzgerald
sat covering in an arm chair in the
county jail early yesterday afternoon
awaiting the arrival of the county am
bulance to take him to the hospital
for the dressing of injuries he re-
ceived by falling from a moving train
near Hanford, which subsequently led
to his arrest as dynamite suspect
in connection with the blowing up OF
the Times.
In a voice choked with emotion and
hands, trembling as with the ague.
Fitzgerald told Herald reporter he
was innocent of any connection with
: the dynamiting of the Times and that
he knew nothing of the men known as
"Smithy" and Bryson, or of any one
connected with the outrage.
| Uppermost in his mind seemed to be
the fear of the return of the men who
have questioned and ross-questioned
him in regard to the disaster. AS he
talked he glanced fearfully about him.
The hacking cough of a prisoner in
the tanks, the jar of a steel trimmed
door or the jingle of the jailers keys
seemed to send a spasm of horror
through his weakened frame.
Here are his words, the first that
have come from his lips to the public
since his arrest at Hanford:
"I don't know anything about this
dynamiting business. 1 amt got any
thing to do with it. Before God 1
amt, and 1 amt going to say I have,
no matter what they do with me. l
can't last much longer under this
strain. Don't they know I ought to
be in bed and have a doctor, but the
doctor at the police station hospital
said 1 was all right to be put in a
cell if he saw me every day"
DO you know Poppy Smithy or a
man named Bryson?" he was asked.
"No, L don't" he replied IT never
heard "a them before they was askin'
me about them"
"Who were asking you about them %
"rhem police" he said, and the eyes
that had been lifeless and dull flashed
for moment.
TREMBLEs AT NOISE
Horses hoofs struck the pavement in
the street outside. The Jail door
changed and the footsteps of men
sounded IN the hallway. Fitzgerald
grasped the arms of his chair and fit
of trembling seized him. He appeared
old and worn and his face was an
ashen color.
The reporter rose to leave and the
prisoner stretched out an unsteady
hand and laid it on his coat sleeve.
Just one thing more," he said. Il
have friends. Because am in trouble
they don't come to me. They think
they might be put in jail, too, for
KNOWN me, but for Gods sake tell
them 1 am not what them men are try
ing to make me say 1 am. and that If
I'm givin' a chance I can prove 1t;
that is if I don't die before / get out
of here Tell 'em to come, won't you;
you will, won't you? It's hell to be
