Please allow me, through the Mail
Bag, to aek some generous and philan-
thropical banker of Washington, to IL
lustrato the following banking conun-
drum. The class of banking which
am showing up, can only be- carried on
in New York, as that city seems to be
immune from q certain Washington
gentleman who II supposed to overlook
such irregular habits. / thought l
might get a solution to my problem
here as the washington banker seems
to be entirely out OF the profit side Of
my problem. Anyone else who can un-
ravcl my riddle, shall be only too
glad to hear from, through the Mail
bag.

they make the $3.50, 8SIs per capita, or,
are there others who have the same
