POSTAL SHAKEUP
HITCHCOCK HOT
POSTMASTER GENERAL IN
CENSED AT MISMANAGEMENT.
ORDERS WITHOUT AUTHORITY.

Washington, Feb. 6.-IneffAciency.
insubordination and Encouragement
have developed in the railway mail
service and is likely to result in an
upheaval or the reorganization Of the
entire service. Postmaster General
Hitchcock thoroughly incensed and
makes no concealment of his indigna-
ton.
Rumors reached Washington today
from several points that changes In
leading offices of the service were i'm
mnent; indeed, it was reported that
the designations of the second assist
ant postmaster general, Joseph Stew
art, and the chief of the railway mail
service, Alexander Grant, had been
submitted to the postmaster general.
It can be said on authority of Mr..
Hitchcock that neither of the officials
has resigned and that their resigna-
tions have not been called for.
Mr.. Hitchcock expressed himself to-
night as entirely satisfied with the
administration of the offices OF sec
ond assistant by Mr.. Stewart, for
whom personally and officially, he en-
tertains a nigh regard, but he express
ed himself as much dissatisfied with
the management of the railway mail
service, particularly as respects the
personnel of the service.
His investigation, he indicated, had
disclosed that orders had been issued
by subordinate officers placing upon
the employees unreasonable and In
some instances humiliating burdens.
These were promulgated in the name
of the postmaster general, although
he knew nothing about them until af'
ter investigation.

TAAL IN VIOLENT ERUPTION
Island Sinks Five Feet After VOlCa-

Are in Terror.

Observation-Disclosures sent out by
the bureau of science to investigate
the eruptions of the volcano Taal
have telegraphed in a report that
terrific eruption occurred at 2 o'clock
in the morning simultaneously with
two prolonged earthquakes. The is
land on which the volcano is located
sank five feet. A heavy mud shower
fell, then for half an hour came hot
ashes.
The observatory at Manila corrOb-
GRATED the report of the earthquake,
and adds that an unusual electrical
storm continued for two hours with
deafening thunder within the smoke
and gas umbrella above the volcano.
Lava and stones were belched 5000
feet.
The cOnstabulary assisted the pan
ic-stricken natives. One cavalryman
was killed by the wreck of a house
on the lake shore. Following the
of the island a wave four
feet high swept over the lake shore
for a radius of a mile, DESTROYING
hundreds of bamboo shacks. These
however, had been evacuated on ac-
count of the early eruptions which
occurred yesterday morning.

MILLIONS WITHDRAWN
DEPARTMENT NIYSTI-
FLED By PECULIAR CONDITION
The South Alone Shows Gains

Since November 10th S191 900, 600
Has Been Withdraw From the
National Banks. All Sections Suf-
fer But the South. The Biggest
Slump in New York.
Observation-Disclosures of in
dividuals in the 1900 national banks
Of the United States decreased $191,-
500, 488 between November 10 and
January T. a situation probably I'M
precedented in the reports made to
the comptroller of the currency. The
banks in the south, however, show
ed increases.
Most in New York.
Of that sum more than $158,OOO.-
600 was withdrawn from the 80
national banks in New York city.
No two officials in the treasury agree
as to where the money went. Some
are OF the opinion that part of it
might have gone to strengthen the
New York state banks and trust
companies during the furry caused
by the so-called Robin failure early
in the month.
All Of the treasury officials, how
ever, expressed great interest in
what explanations the New York
bankers might give.
comparison with the national
banks of Chicago shows that the
drop was confined almost entirely
to New York City. The eleven Chi
cago banks reported a loss of about
$9,O0O,O00 on individual deposits
The reserve banks Of the western
and Pacific states and the New Eng.
land states all show losses, but COM
paratively small ones.
Unexpected Call.
The unexpected call of January Z.
served to show the condition of the
banks in a new angle. Not once be-
fore since 1879 have they been call
ed upon so early in the year. There
were no January calls whatever
from 1890 to 1903, and there has
been none since 1907. !
Some officials think if the call had
been made as usual late in the month
or early in February the money. if i'll
were drawn for dividend payments
would have found its way into the
banks again.
One peculiar aspect of the drop
was that the New York banks alone
lost as much as the combined banks
OF the country had gained in Novem-
Der.
Another feature of the situation
which greatly puzzles the treasury
experts is that in spite of the enor-
nous slumps in deposits the banks
are still holding higher percentage
OF reserve than they were in Novem-
Der, and the total loss in loans and
discounts of the whole country has
been only $48,OOO,OOO, while there
mas been gain in cash of more than
$4,000 900.

Many people never suspect their
kidneys. If suffering from a lame,
weak or aching back they think that
it is only muscular weakness; when
urinary trouble sets in they think it
will soon correct itself. And so it is
with all the other symptoms of kid
ney disorders. That is just where
the danger lies. You must cure
these troubles or they may lead to
diabetes or Bright's disease. The
best remedy to use is DOan's Kidney
Pills. They cure all ills which are
caused by weak or diseased kidneys.
Dawson people testify to permanent
cures.

says; 81 was subject to pains in my
back, particularly severe when |

languid and was annoyed by head
aches and dizzy spells. Being con-
WINGED that my kidneys were at fault
