Certificates Extended.

Notice has been received by coun-
ty Superintendent Roberts, that the
dates for the teachers examination
had been changed. The examination
usually held in February will be held
May 4, and 6. and all teachers in
the county now holding certificates
which expire Macrh 1, can have them
extended to August 1 by forwarding
them to the superintendent of
schools who will send them to St.
Paul. The reasons for doing this are
so that it will not Interfere with the
schools while they are in session and
also because it has been found that in
the severe winter weather the attend
ance is not always as large as it
should be.
Hereafter all certificates will be
dated Aug. l. This will greatly
simplify the records and have the
certificates coincide with the opening
of the school year.

Important To Teachers.

The examination which would have
been held next February has been
postponed. and will be held on Thurs
day, Friday and Saturday. May 4, 5
and 6, 1911. The State Department
has decided to make this change for
the following reasons:
$50 that it may not interfere
with the schools which are in session.
b-Because in the winter season
the weather frequently makes it
hard for persons to attend.
c-Because the legislature will be
in session in February and it will be
difficult to secure rooms at that time
in which to read and mark papers.
All teachers employed in the pub
lie schools of the county holding GER
tifcates which expire March 31st
1911, should appear at this Office on
or before Jan. 28th. and apply upon
blanks which will be furnished you
for the purpose, for an extension of
your certificate. This includes all
certificates which expire March /,

complete or conditional. as we'll as

Carnegie Trust Company Of
New York Suspends.
NO BAD RESULTS FOLLOW
Institution Was Closed by State Bank
Examiner Who Says lt ls in
an Unsound Condition.

New York, Jan. 8.-The Carnegie
Trust company, one of the largest
banking institutions in the city, with
deposits of nearly $9,0O0,000, closed its
doors by order of State Superintend-
ent of Banks Cheney. The suspen-
sion hardly caused ripple in the
financial district, where the trust com
pany was often reported in a shaky
condition.
Superintendent Cheney, in an Off
cial statement, said an examination
of the trust company had caused him
to conclude that it is in an unsound
condition to transact business and that
it is not safe for it to continue"
State banking officers are now prob
ing the company's books. Officials of
the trust company have made no
statement and the extent of liabilities
is unknown. Bankers, however, say
depositors will be paid in full.
The institution was organized in
1907 and after the retirement of Leslie
M. Shaw from the Office of secretary
of the treasury he become it's presi-
dent. The name of Carnegie as ap-
piled to the institution attracted to it
a great deal of attention, but the adOp-
tion of this name was without Mr..
Carnegie's authority or approval. 1t
is understood he was not stockhold-
er and not Immediately identified with
it. Mr.. Shaw's connection with the
bank ceased after a few months be-
cause of differences with the other Of
ficers of the institution.
In Trouble a-zYear Ago.
1t is understood that year ago the
institution was in more or less trouble,
growing out of the fact that one Of its
chief officers, in connection with a
we'll known banker Of Wall street, had
effected very large loan from it to
enable him to buy out and consolidate
with it another institution, but this
falling through. left the Carnegie insti-
tuition with a large amount Of funds
locked up.
News Of the suspension spread rap
Idly and hundreds of depositors had
assembled about the doors even before
the usual hour Of opening.
The following statement was issued
by Superintendent of Banks Chene,
relative to the closing Of the company:
The superintendent Of banks has
taken possession of the property and
business the Carnegie Trust com
pany, located at 115 Broadway, Bor-
ough of Manhattan.
Examination of the affairs of the
company has caused the superintend
ent to conclude that it is in an un-
sound condition to transact business
and that it is not safe for it to con.
tinue. The examination is not yet
complete and no further statement can
be made at the present time"
