The
Wild Olive
By the Author of
"The Inner Shrire''

In four days less than a month
after it was published "The
Wild Olive" was reported the
best selling novel in the United
States. That is the verdict
from countrywide sources Of
trade information. "The Wild
Olive" is the best, and its success
is greater than "The Inner
Shrine" because the story is
greater--better, finer. 1.-THE
Wild Olive" has a broader basis
Of plot, a nobler conception of
character, a higher idealism. Ii
is-above all elisa remarkably
human story.

REORGANIZATION PLAN
 OF THE INTERROGATION
The System to be Taken Out of a
 Three Year ReeeiVership

New York, Dec. 29.-A cOmprehen- sive plan for the reorganization of the Metropolitan Street Railway com pany of this city which has been in the hands of a receiver since Septem- Der 27. 1907. with a petition for it's approval. was filed today with the public service commission by a joint committee representing the bondhold- CTS.
 The draft provides for the organi- ZatiOn of a new corporation which will take over the assets and liabilities of the Metropolitan system amounting to about $136.000.00O for a complete re- adjustment of the tangled finances, under an agreement entered into with the bondholders. The new capital needed. estimated at $10.00O.O00 will be raised by assessment
 An unusual provision is that holders of personal injury claims against the Metropolitan or it's subsidiaries will be permitted to participate in the read Justment on the same basis as the most favored bondholders, but there Is restriction that such claimants shall not be liable for assessments ne cessary for the reorganization. The plan was drafted by a joint committee named by the committees of the five and four per cent bOndholders

 IN FRATERNAL INSURANCE
Conclusion of the New York State
 Superintendent.

Albany. N. Y, Dec. 29-Empha sizing the importance of the passage by the coming legislature of a bill relating to fraternal insurance. State Superintendent of Insurance HOtch- kiss today denied an application for the cancellation of the license of the supreme lodge. Knights of Pythias, to do business in New York state
 The truth is,'' says HOtchkiss in memorandum accompanying his de- cision. that while many advocates of fraternal insurance have long shut their eyes, representative men of all these societies. as we'll SIS the heads of insurance departments in the yari- ous states. are now of one accord in the belief that unless prompt and wise action be taken in the states, in the enactment of reasonable but mandatory laws. and by the societies themselves in the readjustment of rates as well as in other directions, fraternal insurance will. within the next decade or two end in receiver ships with heavy losses to millions of members and their dependents"

 BEFORE THE EXPLOSION
Testimony at Trial of Man Charged With Dynamiting His Alleged
 Mistress.

Santa Rosa. Dec. 29-Dr Burke scored a point today in his trial for the attempted dynamiting of Lu Etta Smiths tent house, when Dr. s. & Bogle. county physician. testi- fled that the Smith woman was not suffering from arsenious poisoning when she was received as a patient at the county hospital one week aft CT the dynamiting

 Frank w. Crawford. nephew of Burke. testified that. Burke remark ed to him at Lakeport about Christ mas 1909 that Lu Etta Smith would attempt to destroy herself with dy- namite Mrs. Lottie COnnOr. a san itarium nurse. told of seeeing Marion Derrig in the sanitarium after the explosion in consultation with Burke The prosecution claims that Miss Derrig was the woman who furnish ed Miss Smith with the money to go to Japan.

4 LITTLE TEXAS BANK
 FOOLED THE EXAMINERS
DECEPTION IS SUCCESSFULLY
 PRAcTicED TWO YEARS.
Uniform System of Bookkeeping Or
 dered for All National Banks.

Washington. Dec. 29.-Disclosures following the forced liquidation of the Quanah National bank of Qua nah, Texas. ten days ago have caused the comptroller of currency today to issue an order directing every one of the 7.100 national banks in the United States to install what pract.- cally amounts to a uniform system of bookkeeping
 The investigations have disclosed that the bank has been doing busi- ness for the last two years, although undoubtedly insolvent. and, although 1t was inspected at regular intervals by the national bank examiners, within that time the examiners were unable to learn of the banks true condition, largely because the man agement refuseds to keep a proper record of the transactions. It is also shown that the entire capital of $5O.0OO and probably some of the S3S.OOO surplus had been paid out to stockholders in dividends. Tn his statement, Comptroller Murray says the examiners were hoodwinked for two years by the way the bank han dled its notes

PANAMA BILLS INTERPRETATION To Be Introduced in Both
 House and Senate RESULT OF CONFERENCE
General Agreement Upon All Points Except Dis elimination in Favor of American Traffic in the
 Canal Charges and Tolls.

Washington, Dec 29.-BOth Sen ator Flint of California, chairman of the senate committee on inter oceanic canals and Representative Mann of Illinois, chairman of the house committee on interstate and foreign commerce expect to intro duce general - Panama canal bills. They will incorporate their different ideas as to the needs of legislation for the water way-in the light of the White House conference last night.
 This conference developed a sub stantial harmony of opinion favOring the fortification of the canal: pres idential discretion as to the exact amuOnt of tolls under a prescribed maximum and minimum limitation: the government erecting dry dock and repair shop facilities; the gov ernment sale of all coal. oil and oth- CT ship supplies at both ends of the canal; trade of the world passing through it, and the safeguarding of competition through the canal
 The differences of views as to whether foreign shipping and coast W lSC SliipplIS Suoulu receive GtiuAA treatment in canal charges could not be recOnciled and the problem is still unsOlved
 Mir. F1int's bill will provide either an unqualified free passage of Amer ican ships or the collection of toll and a subsequent rebate of the en- tire toll which from the viewpoint of some of those at the conference merely would operate as a matter Of bookkeeping. It will provide that the government may take over for its own uses, when public emer- scnt ies make necessary. any vessels that avail themselves of the rebate, which would make all coastwise craft engaged in canal traffic sub ject to a demand for naval uses.
 The general measure which Mir Mann proposes probably will be pre- sented to his colleagues of the inter- state and foreign commerce com mission soon after the holiday re- cess whether the bill carrying the | amount wanted for the initial ex- pense for fortification will come | from the appropriations committee l pr the military affairs committee is | uncertain.

It reached San An dreas at noon As the train pro- ceeds it is repairing tracks and re- storing wires which were cut by i'm surrectOs. When this work is com pleted the train will stop at Peder- males to take on board the wounded of Navarros troops. These have been compelled to get along with crude attention in the field hospital since the fights at Cerro Prieto three weeks ago and at Pedernales and Nal Paso.
 The government reiterates the statement that the pass was occu- pied and a junction formed with General Navarro by his reinforce ments without seeing the enemy.
 There could be no better confirma- ton of this than the fact that the government train Is now in the pass which was formerly the insurrectQs The latter apparently exercised discretion and retired in the face of a greatly superior foe.
