NEGRO REPUBLICAN CLUBS

New York, Sept. 1S--The Consoli-
dated Republican Clubs Of the United
States, composed Of colored men, met
in third annual convention in this
city today. James w. Poe OF Wash
ington, d. c., is presiding over the
sessions, which will last three days.
Talks with the delegates indicate that
a lively discussion is likely to be pre-
cipitated in the convention when a
resolution is introduced to condemn
Colonel Roosevelt and declare against
his presidential candidacy. While
many Of the delegates are opposed to
the former President because Of his
attitude in excluding the negroes from
the Chicago convention, there are 9TH
ers who are ready to stand by him
and who will use every effort to de.
feat the adoption of the proposed reso.
luton.

The governor drew attention tc

clutching the bride. The driver used
the whip vigorously and the horse ran
frantically from one side Of the street
to the other with Mr.. Hough hanging
onto its head. II soon stopped, how

STATE BANKS
Required To Maintain Re-
serves Under Ohio Law

Columbus, O., Sept. 17--ln a deci-
sion rendered today Common Pleas
Judge T. M. Bigger, of this city, sus.
tanned Attorney.G General Timothy 8.
Hogan in holding the requirements of
a fifteen.per.cent reserve on all depos.
its applied to all banks Of the state.
The question Is of great interest to
nearly every state bank in Ohio, for
the reason that banks in existence at
the time OF the adoption of Section
9.764 Of the general code, the so-called
Thomas act, which requires the re.
serve, claimed that under the provi.
sions of Section 9.739 they were guar.
anteed all the rights they had prior to
the adoption of the banking code,
when reserves were not required. Mr..
Hogan. however, gave the opinion that
the reserve requirement does not
abridge any right they had and ap.
plies to all banks.
The decision of the court was given
in the case OF the American Trust and
Savings Bank, of GAINESVILLE. Ohio
against F. T.. Baxter, State Superin.
tendent Of Banks. Baxter threatened
to take charge of the bank under the
law and liquidate 1t for alleged failure
to comply with his order. The bank
responded by bringing the injunction
suit to test his order. and to this Bax
ter. through his counsel, demurred.
Judge Bigger today overruled the de-
murrer. but sustained the Banking De
partment on every point but one. The
statute in question, as viewed by Judge
Bigger, does not contemplate that
funds held by bank as trustee shall
be considered In determining the
amount on which banks must retain
the legal fifteen.per-cent reserve. In
other words. trust funds are not in
cluded in deposits against which the
reserve must be maintained.
On this one point the demurrer was
overruled. 1t is anticipated that the
order of the department will be modi
fled to come within the scope of the
ruling. The version Of the law giveK
by Judge Bigger is the same as thai
held by numerous large trust com
panies in various parts of the state
The ruling of the Court exempts this
bank from holding reserve against
upward Of $4,000 and will, through
out the state. result in doing away
with the necessity of holding reserves
against many millions of dollars.

MIDDIES FIRST HOP TONIGHT.
Large Attendance Anticipated for
Opening Of Fall Series Of Dances
in Gymnasium.

With the first Of the series of hops
arranged by the hop committee of
midshipmen to be given in the gym
nasium at the Naval Academy tonight,
the fall and winter social season here
will be on in full swing. 1t is ex-
pected that tonight's dance will be at
tended by many out of town girls, as
we'll as the usual large local contin-
gent.
Practically the same regulations
govern the dances this year as last
year, admission to the dance hall be-
ing by card only, except in the case
of officers and the direct members of
their families. In this connection a
notice was recently issued at the in
stance of the hop committee, inform
ing all officers that admission cards
will be provided for persons visiting
the families of officers and desiring
to attend the dances, and the same
rule prevails with all persons living
in the city and elsewhere to whom in
vitations were sent.
: The miLdies' schedule calls for
twelve dances in addition to tonight's
event, TO be held between now and
the last of May 1t is expected that
the officers on duty at the Academy
will, as usual, give several dances,
the dates for same being arranged 50
as not to conflict with the functions
given by the middies.
