made the trip over the route 40 years
ago by the old-time stage coach when
it consumed an entire day for the
journey and she had no been over the
road since. On the return trip, Tues
day gentleman over so years OF age,
boarded the machine in Rockland for
Razorville. He CHANGED to remark that
he had travelled over that route SO
years ago in the stage coach OF the
period and not been over 1t since. The
man saw very little with which he was
familiar None of the PRETTY little
towns that now are, except the town
of Union, were on the road three score
years ago, then Union was not what it
is now. He remembered we'll when
Indians inhabited the mountains that
could be seen in the distance. He told
some interesting stories of early Ra :

er whom the town was named. Many

0UT-OF-TOWN BANKS OBJECT
Don't Want Money Trust Com
mittee to Know Local Balances.

Another objection from banking circles
to the broad gagged investigation 10 he
conducted into the so-called money trust
by the Congressional committee developed
Yesterday when II became known that nu-
merous banks of the interior cities had
made protests against having their Wall
Street correspondents report the exact
amount of balances carried here by the
out-of-town institutions. The large local
banks carry hundreds OF these accounts,
and although the information In regard TO
the balances Of the out-of-town banks Ia s
always been accessible to the Controller OF
the Currency. It has never yet been placed
at the disposal Of any investigating COM
mittee. The matter has generally been
treated like the balance Of personal ac-
count which is considered confidential
The vice. president of one OF the large
New York banks, which has more than
twenty-five hundred accounts with outside
banks, said yesterday that such request
was likely to arouse as much resentment
as any action taken by the investigating
committee. The outside banks always
guarded such information jealousy, he
said, for the reason that they never like to
have their rivals know just what balances
they carry in New York. There were many
ways In which full compliance with the
committees requests would embarrass the
out-of-town banks, feeling would be aroused
Immediately, and the committee would be
likely to hear at once from these outside
institutions a. soon as the local banks nae
informed them that the committee insisted
on having this information, which neither
the New York banks nor their country cor
