LONDON, March 16.-At the annu. al meeting of the Association of Brit. ish Chambers of Commerce the most in, teresting feature was the report pre-. sented by the Banking and Currency committee, embracing a scheme to avoid financial crisis and to prevent a run on the postal savings bank.

 Maybray's

COUNCIL BLUFFS, Iowa, March l6 Today S sessions of the trial of John Maybray, aged eighty-six and other de. fendants charged with swindling opera. tions and fraudulent use of the mails, produced kaleidoscope of testimony that has not been equalled during the trial.
 William McGrath, aged 2S, gradu- ate of the University of Minnesota and the St. Paul law school, according to the evidence, was as easily duped out of his $l0,000 as was James Kile, of Cis. co, Ills, age "A, who testified to the loss of a similar amount.
 T. E. George or San Antonio lost $1S,- 900; James Webber of Shamokin, Pa, $3,00O; J. B. Schurman, a German far mer and stOckman of Leota, Kan, $5,- 000; totalling $4S,000, as the amount the witnesses today told of losing.
 McGrath recited remarkable story of his loss. Louis Stowe, son of an Episcopal recor at Minneapolis, solicit ed McGrath in the matter, assuring him that it was his former college friend ship that prompted him to ask the wit ness to help him carry out his scheme.
 According to his testimony, it was this declaration alone that induced him to bring $10,000 to Council Bluffs.
 "When l got here and looked over the situation,' said McGrath, ''I took Stowe out to the park and pleaded with him not to go into the deal. D
 Assistant District Attorney Stewart elicited from McGrath that he finally went as far as to get a draft in favor of his brother and put it in an enve- lopelope preparatory to mailing it to Saltwater, Minn. The witness then de clares he met Maybray, who induced him to try to get the money at the bank. He said: "I went to the First National bank, which issued the draft, and the teller told me to indorse it with my brothers name and when I did so readily game me the money.'
 McGrath now has civil suit against the bank for the recovery of the money

 WEDNESDAY CLUB
 The Wednesday club met yesterday afternoon at the home of Mrs. D. R. Williamson and very interesting ses- sion was held
 Mrs. B. G. Fox and Mrs. Chas. Clark were guests of the club.
 During the business session, the re- port of the committee on the outline of next years work was read and ac- cepted. The work will cover the history of Egypt, Chaldea, Babylonia, Phoe- nicia and Persia.
 A committee was appointed to ar range for the publication of the year book for next season.
 "A committee was also appointed to wait upon the city council and attempt to interest the members of that body in better system of fire alarms.
 The literary part of the meeting was very interesting. In response to roll call quotations from Uarda were given.
 Mrs. F. S. Nave read an, entertaining paper on Seti I and Rameses l, cover ing the period of the eventful reigns of these eventful monarchs
 ".The Labyrinths was to have been the subject of a paper by Mrs. J. B. Coplen, but as she no longer lives here, Mrs. F. D. Smith prepared and read an interesting sketch on the subject.
 Mrs. E. G. Decker had prepared a paper on "Uarda," but as she was un- able to be present, it was read by Mrs. c. A. Garden. The paper outlined the book as well as giving, some facts re- garding the author and the writing and publishing of the story. It was not only well prepared but was also read in very pleasing manner.
 Instead of Current Events, the dis cussion of which usually follows the reading of the papers, Mrs. Williamson gave an exceedingly interesting and in structive talk on the life and work of Frederick Remington, the noted painter of western scenes and western life. Her talk was illustrated by copies of many of his paintings, arranged so that they might easily be inspected. This was a pleasing diversion from the usual program and the members all felt great ly indebted to Mrs. Williamson for the unexpected pleasure.
 The next meeting will be held at the home of Mrs. G. w. Shute, Wednesday afternoon, March 30.
