when BANKS FAIL
DOWN IN MEXICO

"HFu d Udnh IdllS III mexico all
the officials connected with it suffer
more than the deposi tors. The de-
positors may lose their money, but
the hand of the Mexican law de-
sends heavily upon every one of
Importance connected with the
failed bank and slaps him into Jail
before the paste is dry on the
notice that is stuck on the closed
door.
Two American banks in the City
of Mexico have failed lately, and
two more or less complete sets of
banking officers .are in Jail down
there now. A few Of the prisoners
have been admitted to bail, but
only after having been imprisoned
for considerable time. Those who
have not gained temporary liberty
are enduring hardships that in a
way are as destructive of life and
health almost as the convict camp
Of the south.
There is as much argument about
getting bail in Mexico as there is
in trying to obtain liberty. The
court holds numerous sessions that
take up several hours each day for
two or three weeks and listens to
the arguments on both sides as to
whether the cuiprit shall be bailed
out or not. The decision, of
course, rests entirely with the
Judge, and he never is easy to con-
vince. The proceedings are
especially slow, because they are
never taken down in shorthand. If
the defendant or any witness is to
be examined the questions which
the lawyers propose asking them
are written out first and submitted
to the judge. In day or two he
decides what questions he will
allow and what he will not permit
to be asked.
When a person who is to be in
terrogated is brought before the
court q II his answers to the 4ues-
tions are recorded in long hand.
Before the session ends for the day
the person tsstifying has to read
over the record of what has been
asked and his answers. Then he
signs it, all the lawyers 81 gn it; if
there is an interpreter officia ting
in the case, he signs it also and
last of all, the public notary affixes
his seal and then writes out a
formal declaration of the circum-
stances, which he signs. The
whole thing Is then tied together
with red tape and attached to the
file Of papers that has begun to
accumulate. AS all is written in
long hand, the stack of documents
in an important and long drawn
case will weigh LOO, sometimes 200
pounds. They are left in charge
of the clerk of the court, but the
notary is, to a gre at extent, re-
s2onsible for them. The notary,
by the way, is not the casual
official that he is in the United
States. He must have been adj
mitted to the bar, and must have
taken a two-year course in the
College Of Notaries. After a case
is closed the documents ere filed
away in big granite building
one of the largest and handsomest
of the public edifices in the City of
Mexico-which is devoted entirely
to the storage Of notarial archives.
But while alf this is going on the
accused person is in Jail. Being in
jail is no joke in the City of Mex
leo. These American bank officers

account Of the adventures Of certain

When he had taken his seat for the

swine. which seemed to cast upon him

at the prisoners feet and making

mounting to the very top Of the stocks,
crowed his derision upon the victim
below. and presently q rough fellow.
after indulging in ugly taunts, threw
at him fetid toadstools and a dead
snake. 49,.
Then an Indian appeared, who, In
drunken rage. stimulated by some
fancied injury. rushed at Hubbard
with q tomahawk. probably intending
nothing worse, however, than to give
him a severe fright, which he GER
tainly succeeded in doing.
Help came from an unexpected quar-.
ter. for at that moment an old bull
came tearing down the road. His at
tention was attracted by the. stocks
and with roar he prepared for .
charge.
