BANKS DO NOT FEAR
LOSS OF BUSINESS
Passage Of Postal Savings Bank
Bill Discussed

st. Paul, June list. Paul bankers
have no fear that the passage of the
postal savings bank law will interfere
with the banking business of the
Northwest. Few of them evince any
decided interest in the bill, other than
that excited by any other incident in
banking circles. Most of them are of
the opinion that the new law, when
passed, will tend to bring from old
hiding places money which would 9TH
erwise remain out of circulation.
Some bankers intimate that savings
banks in the East might have some
bad moments If the depositors took a
notion to ask for their money, but
none of the bankers can see any rea-
son for depositors drawing out money
from banks which pay 4 per cent in
terest to put into plan paying only 2
per cent. Savings bank officials of st.
Paul also point to the fact that the
government will pay interest but once
a year, on deposits which have been
there for a year. Savings banks pay
quarterly or semi-annually and pay for
money left only three months.

PLAYING AT POLITICS
FOE TO PROSPERITY
Chicago Banker Says Washing.
ton Upset Record Prospects.

Chicago, June 11.--John j. Mitchell,
president of the Illinois Trust and
Savings bank, who has just returned
from New York, talked as follows on
the general situation:
Il found very mixed sentiment
prevailing among New York financial
interests. 1t is, of course, difficult to
see clearly into the future with the
present political outlook so uncertain
and SO prominent. Playing politics at
Washington is the thing responsible
for the recent unsatisfactory develop
ments. At the opening of the year
1910 promised to be one of the best, If
not the best, business year the coun-
try has ever experienced, but Wash
ington upset things. Until the situa-
ton clears up there / do not look for
any decided change in the situation.
"As for the fall money outlook it
can be said that the early anticipa-
tion of tight situation is very likely
to prove preventative stringency. l
think individual preparations are daily
being made and when the fall strain
comes it will be found that the expect
ed trouble has been averted The
Western situation is very good, indeed.
We have a good demand for money at
and 51s per cent and every prom
ise of grand crop yield"

IS ACCUSED OF
VIOLATING Law
Western Union Caught in
Bucket Shop Net
INDICTMENT IS RETURNED

True Bill Charges Violation of Statute
In Furnishing Quotations to Illegal
Concerns and Contains Forty-two
Counts-Ten individuals Included In
Latest Indictment of the Federal
Grand Jury.
Washington, June 1.-THE federal
grand jury has returned an indictment
against the Western Union Telegraph
company charging it with forty-two
violations of the bucket shop law Of
March /, 1909.
The charge is made that the West
ern Union company, by means of a
telegraph wire and ticker, aided and
abetted the conduct of bucket shop
in the District of Columbia.
The forty-two counts in the indict-
ment vary only in the date on which
the alleged violations are said to have
occurred.
An additional indictment charging
the conduct of a bucket shop In the
District was filed against William B.
Price, Virgil P. Randolph, Henry NJ
Randolph, Charles T. Moorehead, Ed
ward Weldon, James A. Anderson, all
of Baltimore, Md; Thomas H. Camp
bell of Philadelphia, Joseph g. Gatins
Of New York, Edward Everett Taylor
and John p. Atlberger Of Philadelphia
A corrective conspiracy indictment
was returned against the same indi-
viduals, in which Joseph T. Gatins is
indicted in proper name. A previous
indictment, filed April 2, had called
him Joseph F. Gatkins, and he filed a
plea in abatement, to Offset which the
corrected indictment was filed. Gatins
also tried to have the court instruct
the grand jury in the hope of fore
stalling this new indictment. but was
unsuccessful The court held that
such proceedings would open up an
undesirable practice In this jurisdic-
tion. He also declared that the court
was bound to suppose the government
official in charge of the grand jury
would properly expound the law to
that body.

order of the judges of this district 80

ordering the new method instituted.
Formerly there were "a jurors drawn

more jurors were required they would

With from six TO ten jurors waiting
for the arrival OF enough more jurors
