Rep. Mitchell of Kittery thinks it would be a
good idea to license the Maine lobster fisher
men and he introduced bill providing for
doing so in the House Friday. The license is
to be issued by the commissioner of sea and
shore fisheries and may be revoked by him
when the person holding it is convicted of
violation of any law concerning the taking or
sale of Holsters. The cost of the license is fix
ed at 81 and the penalty for fishing without
license is fixed at fine of not less than $50, or
Imprisonment for not more than 30 days.

A Reorganization
AS the Very Limit
(By Henry Clews.)

Uncertainty about the Supreme Court
and railroad decisions at Washington
still act as a damper in business circles.
1t is to be hoped that this element of
doubt will be removed as soon as prac-
ticable.- The issues involved are of SUI
preme Importance, for they affect not
only the machinery Of our great indus
trial corporations, but also the adjust
ment of some OF the most vital political
and economic issues Of the day.
Nothing worse than reorganization can
be expected concerning the industrials
The Supreme Court cannot and will
not destroy actual property, and should
the decisions prove entirely adverse, it
is safs to. saw the country will quick
ly recover from the shock and go on as
placidly as before.
The speculative situation shows decid-
ed Improvement. While there are no
very brilliant elements in the situation,
still all known drawbacks have been
well discounted, and the general out
look is not without its encouraging fea-
lures. In fact there Is an undertone of
confidence not at all discernible month
ago.
Local bankers show a decided change
of front, and are much more confident.
1t is quite within the power of pres
ent market leaders to force still higher
prices, and toward the close this was
evidently their intention.

Dime Savings Bank
Changes Its Title

At a special meeting of the stockhold
ers of the Dime Savings Bank, the
unanimous action of the board of direc-
tors was ratified, in the matter of Sc
lecting the new name Bank of. Com
merce and Savings, for the institution.
The new title will be assumed February
/. 1911. and the old name will be dropped
on and after that date.
The Dime Savings Bank has been
established for over three years and as
one of the younger institutions of its
kind, has shown remarkable growth in
the brief period of its career.
For the first two years of its exist
ence the Dime Savings Bank was To-
Gated at the northwest corner of Eighth
and G streets northwest, in what is
known as the Ouray Building The pur-
chase OF its present home, at the corner
of Seventh and E streets northwest.
was then made and after remodeling
and undermining the entire structure the
bank moved to its new quarters in De-
cember, 1903.
The affairs of the Bank of Commerce
and Savings will be conducted by the
same officers and directors as are now
serving the Dime Savings Bank. They
are as follows:
Maurice D. Rosenberg, president;
Joseph Sanders, first vice president;
Richard ]. Earnshaw, second vice
president; John F. Collins, auditor;

terest save as to further emphasize the
wisdom of the interchange of credit
information between Washington bank
ers, with a view of preventing any
such scheme being worked here, and
not only note swapping, but the over
extension of credits in general, and
check kiting.
If the start is made, and the matter
Is tactfully handled 1t will lead to fur
ther results to the credit Of the annual
profits Of the banking business.
The effort Is to be made. George w
White, president Of the National Metro
politan Bank, is at the bead of a COM
mittee to report to the Gle airing House
Association, and a meeting will proba-
bly, be called this week. ]. Castle
Ridgeway, who suggested the movement
to the Clearing House, has made an ex-
hausttve study of the matter, and is
prepared to explain in detail methods
in credit information.
The failure of the movement to reach
a satisfactory conclusion would be re-
gretted. Ultimate success would have
to turn on an honest confidential man
to handle credit reports and give the
aggregate in confidence when called
upon for information.
Diogenes could not find him-but he
may be found in Washington, without
much trouble.
During the past week the local Sc
curity market has developed consider
able activity, in the aggregate. The
abundance Of money and lower rates
have had their effect. Bonds have been
favored, especially the issues yielding
well at moderate prices. Gas SIS and
Potomac Electric Consolidated SIS have
been the favorites, the prices of the
former coming down to-a level where
the bankers are taking them on
Washington Railway and Electric As
have also been in better demand and
have advanced p point. This has been
brought about largely by the advance
in the stock. Chesapeake and Potomac
5s at 103 to I0312 are favorites.
In the stock list Railway preferred
continues to favorably surprise it's
friends by its strength, and good things
are expected of the annual report to be
made public this week.
Washington Gas hung back all week
around 7HT7711, only to come strong o.
the closing day with an advance to IS12
ami more trading than the aggregate of
the earlier days of the week. 1t is eX-
pected that the report Of the earning
of this corporation may tell ar import
ant tale-certainlv it will tell the stor
of the ability of the corporation to con
tinue the present dividend rate.
With about 100000 waiting reinvest
ment, local securities should enjoy a
better trade during the coming month.
The Washington times., 1911-01-29

There were practically but sixty days
between the call Of the Comptroller OF
the Currency for a statement Of the
conditions of banks in Washington on
November 10, 1910, and the call on Janu-
ary Z, 1911. But the calls came just at
the right time to demonstrate some in
teresting facts, probably the most prom
ising in the interest of the local secur-
ity market being the direct evidence
that but a comparatively small part Of
the enormous dividend and interest pay
ments made January 1. 1911, have found
their way into reinvestments.
This is shown by the fact that the in
dividual deposits in the banks Of the
District have increased $S24,1u between
the dates named.
In round -Ires the distribution made
to investors January l, was about a.OO0,-
900. but this did not include the interest
payment on deposits in savings banks,
or other bank deposits.
Strange TO say, practically the entire
increase was in the deposits of the saw
ings institutions Of the city showing
that investors have the cumulative
ha bit, even when permitting their money
to rest for q time.
The total individual deposits January
Z. 1911. we're S5S.s73.5S9. as compared with
s,Oi9, 4sS on November 10. 1910. The
banks held a sufficient amount of Gov
ernment funds to bring the grand total
to over s5O.00O.OOO.
The surplus and undivided profits of
the local fiscal institutions have also
increased, the figures of the two calls
indicating $10,3S1, ,3S6 on the date of the
last call, and $40, S,012 as by the state
ment of November 10, 1910, a net gain in
limited period of s1S3,324
The gold and gold certificate holdings
of the banks Of Washington total $2,6I9.-
4l2. Naturally the national banks have
holdings of gold coin being S66,S19, and
of gold certificates s1,936,S50.
1t is rather interesting TO note the
value of the homes and properties in &C
tual use by the banks Of Washington.
Most of the institutions own their
homes, others still occupy rented quar-
tiers.
The total value Of the real estate and
buildings owned and occupied by bank
ing corporations is Sc, ,946, ,335.
OF this amount, the four trust COM
panies owning their own establishments
hold $3,213.5S2 the national banks own
and occupy property that stands at
s., ,S33,560 on their books, and the more
modest and a little less intrusive loca-
tiOns of the savings banks, show an in
vestment to their credit Of $Sn, ,193.

ton Of being one of the fastest COM
positors in the country. Among men,
bers Of his craft his ability was re.
garded as remarkable. Because of his

was q charter member.

LEADS AN ASSAULT
On Christian Science and
Universalism.

Christian Science and Universalism
are poWerless to save peoples souls.
Evangelist Kennedy told large audi
ence at a revival service in the First
Methodist church last evening In, at
tacking Christian Science, Rev. Ken
nedy said the new doctrine denies the
divinity of Christ and the doctrine of
God and sin, which is virtually deny
ing salvation. Speaking OF universal
ism, the evangelist used the "reduc-
ito ad absurdum' method. showing
that saving every soul, regardless of
it's purity was out of harmony with the
ordinary belief.
Rev. Kennedy spoke especially to
young people last evening and told the
audience that people cannot depend
solely on church membership to gain
salvation, but that they must trust
in Christ. The meeting yesterday at
tracted hundred and fifty people,
with noticeable increase in the pro-
portion Of young folks. One more per-
son came to the altar and was convert
ed. -.~
After a rest today. when no services
are to be held, Rev. Kennedy will oc-
cupy the pulpit twice tomorrow, speak
