BANK INSPECTIONS
FOR EACH QUARTER
stricter Central of National Institu-
tions Inteded to Make for More
Safety and soIvency.

Washington, D. c., July 14.-In the
opinion of treasury officials the plans
contemplated by Comptroller Of the
Currency Murray for Tightening up the
control of national banking institu-
tions will make for better banking and
more safety and solyency.
1t is pointed out that the comptroller
is not specifically empowered to force
bank into voluntary liquidation But
if two-thirds of its stockholders de-
sire that it go into voluntary liquid
alton, then liquidation is carried out.
In the absence of specific authority,
however, Comptroller Murray will
take %he view that unless the people
responsible for the conduct of bank
conduct it along safe and lawful lines,
it is the intention of congress that it
shall not exist.
Mr.. Murray is about to carry out his
plans about like this: When any ma
tional bank is found to need four or
more examinations year, the ques-
tion of voluntary liquidation will be
taken up by the comptroller with the
officers and the full board of directors.
The objections to having the bank
continue will be set before them.
The comptroller will insist on one
of three courses being taken and one
of three things being done. He will
insist that the bank be at once plac-
ed in satisfactory condition in accord
ance with the report of the examiner;
or, that a new management be provid-
ed If the old management cannot put
the bank into satisfactory condition;
or, that voluntary liquidation be de-
termined on and the banks affairs
wound up.
While the comptroller cannot force
voluntary liquidation he can weld a
powerful influence over the bank Off
GERS and directors by presenting to
them the advantage of quietly closing
up business and liquidating while there
is time and when everything can be
settled in full as compared with the
disadvantages of suffering failure,
in which case the stockholders will be
liable for twice the amount Of their
holdings. What would inevitably fol-
low in the ordinary case would be com.
plete reorganization or voluntary
liquidation.
1t is declared that the moral effect

WILL TAKE SUIT TO
SUPREME COURT
Attorneys in the Mott 10000 suit Case
Meet at Muskogee to Discuss
An Appeal.

The attorneys in the case met at
Muskogee yesterday to discuss the
matter of appealing to the supreme
court of the United States from the
decision of the circuit court of appeals,
recently handed down at st. Paul, re-
versing Judge Campbell in his decision
regarding the so-called 10000 land
suits, filed by the government for the
purpose of clearing titles to lands in
the state.
Judge Campbell held that the gov
ernment had no right to bring the
suit. The case was taken to the cir
cult court Of appeals, sitting at St.
Louis. After hearing the arguments
the matter was taken under advise
ment and later at st. Paul the circuit
court in decision by Justice Amidon
and Hook, reversed Judge Campbell.
Justice Adams dissented. The case
will now in all probability goto the
supreme court Of the United States.
Mayor o. L. Rider, of this city, is
one of the attorneys and attended the
meeting at Muskogee. but left before
a decision was reached.

MINORS HAVE NOT
MAJORITY RIGHTS
Decision Of State Supreme Court is
Far Reaching in Its Effect Upon
Land Titles.

The state supreme court has Just
rendered decision that will be OF Ear
reaching effect in the matter of land
titles in Oklahoma. The decision was
the result of a suit brought to test
the legality of the act comforting the
rights Of majority on minors. The SUI
preme court holds that the marriage
of minors does not remove the disa-
bilities of the minor, by reason Of his
being such, except as to property ac-
quired subsequent to the marriage.
It has been the practice of many
land sharks to get two minors of In
dian decent to marry in order that
they might sell their allotments.
Prior to this decision the lower courts
have held that minors who have mar
ried are to be regarded as having all
the rights of majority The decision
lit is claimed also declares all orders
conferring majority rights on minors,
except as mentioned above. are void
The courts decision will affect the
title to thousands of acres of land that
has been sold by minors whom the
rights of majority had been conferred
upon.
