ARREST OF A BANK PRESIDENT.

s. Nj. Smith, former president Of the
Fidelity Banking and Trust Company,
of Bluefeld, w. Va, which was closed
by the state bank examiner last Friday,
was arrested in that city and taken to
Washington by Detective w. G. Bald
win, who has been seeking him since
the bank closed its doors. Mr.. Smith
after going over the situation with the
detective in his apartments in the Drss-
den, accompanied him to Bluefeld to
look into the condition OF the bank, Of
which he was head before his departure
several months ago for California.
Mr.. Smiths arrest which occurred
late Tuesday night, came as great
surprise to him. He had returned East
from long visit to California, and did
not know of the failure of the bank, OF
which he formerly was head, until ap-
prissd OF the fact by friend he met in
Alexandria. 1t was while he was in
conversation with the friend beside his
automobile, switch he was repairing,
that Detective Baldwin arrested him.
So quietly was the arrest made that few
knew what was transporting. Mr.. Smith
accepted the situation gracefully, and
later he and Baldwin went to Washing
ton. Wednesday Mr.. Smith and Bald
win left for Bluefield. Mr.. Smith is
regarded as an able banker, and many
bankers in Washington last night ex-
pressed the belief ne will have little diff
fculty in Strengthening out the situa-
ton.
The Fidelity Banking and Trust Com
pany had a capital Of S185, 900 deposits
Of $3.50, 900, and loans of S135, 900, &C
cording to the last statement. 1t is al
legged that $4,000 Of the paper on
which loans were made was not prop
~ secured.

RECIPROCITY Defeated.
Laurier Government Goes Down in
a Landslide---Taft is Dis
appointed.

The Laurier government and reel
nrocity suffered an overwhelming de-
feat in The Canadian election held yes
terday. The liberal majority OF 4o II
parliament was swept away, and the
conservative party secured a majority
OF 40 or more.
Seven cabinet ministers who hac
served with Premier Laurier wert
among the defeated candidates.
The liberals lost ground in practically
every province Of the Dominion.
Where they won, their maiorities were
small. Where the conservatives won
their majorities we're tremendous.
Ontario, the leading province OF Can
ada, declared almost unanimously
against the administration and reci'
procity.
Robert L. Borden, leader OF the con.
sentative party, will shortly become the
prime minister Of Canada. He will be
supported in parliament by a working
majority OF members far more than
ample for his purposes.
The government defeat means that
the Fielding-knox reciprocity agree
ment, ratified by the United States
Congress in extra session, will not be
introduced when the twelfth parliament
assemblies next month, and that re-
yised basis of trade with the United
States, looking to closer commercial
relations, will not be possible in the
immediate future.
The conservatives are committed to
a policy of trade expansion within the
empire and a closed door against the
United States. =,
President Taft last night said: i
have just been informed that reci-
procity has failed in Canada. For me
it is great disappointment. | had
hoped that it would be put through to
prove the correctness OF my judgment
that it would be good thing for both
countries. 1t takes two to make q
bargain, and if Canada declines, we
can still go on doing business at the
old stand"
Sir Wilfrid Laurier is quoted as say
ing: II gladly lay down the premier
ship, burden which l have carried
for fifteen years. We believed that in
making the reciprocity arrangement
We had done something which would
be greatly to the benefit Of the people
of Canada. The electors have declared
otherwise, and we bow to their deci-
sion. I regret that We have been un-
able to carry reciprocity, which still
believe would have promoted the ma.
terial advancement of Canada and
would have promoted the growing
friendship between the United States
and Great Britain. /"

ago, and they are hopeful that If
there is no falling off during the next
two or three weeks there will be room

business handled by the railroads is
now about even with a year ago and
the tonnage is divided up well. There
has been a heavy movement of coal

ment of grain has not been up to what
it recently was. but this does not mean
q loss to the transportation companies,
as the delayed tonnage sooner or later
is bound to come forward.
The express companies had an
enormous tonnage during the holiday

busy time of it as q result. More

Passenger traffic on most of the

Railroads operating westward from

The tonnage has been fairly well di-

There is some betterment in the
iron and steel tonnage. but it is not
up to normal as yet, although senti-
ment is much better in this industry

been favorable for moving freight in
the territory served by the roads and

RAILROAD OYSTER DIRECTORY
Eastern Roads Tell Where Famous
Oysters Arc Found.

Baltimore, Md, Dec. 27.-A new
departure in railroad industrial work
is furnished by the Baltimore, Chesa-
peake & Atlantic and the Maryland,
Delaware & Virginia railways, which
have just issued a directory of ship
pers of oysters located on their lines.
Chesapeake Bay oysters have long
been famous throughout the. United
States, and the oyster industry in this
region has grown so rapidly of late
under stimulus from transportation
companies eager to increase their
freight revenue from this source, that
few realize it's present magnitude.
The directory contains the names of
344 shippers Of oysters located in 131
towns. Chrisfield, Nd, furnishes the
greatest number, and in this town
alone there are thirty-one individuals
and firms that ship oysters.
The celebrated Chineoteague oys-
tiers come from the neighborhood of
Franklin CITY, Va. An idea of the ex-
tent of the traffic can be had from
the fact that last winter the Mary
land, Delaware & Virginia railway,
the Baltimore, Chesapeake & Atlantic
railway, and the Delaware railroad
hauled 2O9,793 barrels of shell, and
$4,000 packets of shucked oysters and
