BANK GIYEN HERAING-

HARRISBURG, March 22-None of
the officers of the $1,000 900 bank of
the United States, a Delaware corpor-
alton. attended the hearing yesterday
before Deputy Attorney General Wi NJ
largest, when Banking Commissioner
w. IT, Smith endeavored to ascertain
whether the bank comes under the
supervision of his department.
One reason given by George r. Hell
sey. the general counsel for the bank,
who was present, was that many of
the officers have resigned. The law
yer added that the corporation Is not
a bank in the meaning that il would
receive deposits. but that it was form
ed for the purpose of carrying on on
investment business with foreign
countries, especially with some of the
South American Republics.
Commissioner Smith. i'm asking for
an opinion Of the matter stated that
in the name of the corporation signi-
fed it was a bank. and if such is the
case, it cannot do business in PeHnsyl-
vania because it. is a foreign corpora
tion and the State banking laws re-
quire that directors Of Pennsylvania
banks be residents of this state.

MUST HUSTLE TO
SAVE PYLE ART

"If Wilmington is going to secure
the Howard Pyle pictures, Wilmington
will have to hustle" remarked a mem
Der Of the committee working to Sc
cure the pictures for the city. when
asked about the prospect today.
The city has hardly more than one
week left in which to make up the
money, as the collection cannot be
held longer than April l. After that
date. if not bought by Wilmington, it
will be sent to New York and other
cities for the spring exhibitions and
offered for sale, and Wilmington will
lose the chance to buy the pictures.
There is no doubt the sum could be
raised if several months we're given to
raise it in" said a committee mem
Der. but Wilmington does not seem
to realize how necessary it is to give
contributions Immediately" In art
circles outside Of Wilmington, the
comment is being frequently heard
that it will show little appreciation of
art on the part of this city il it allows
these famous paintings to be taken to
other places.
A substantial amount has been raised
toward the fund, but much of it is con-
ditional on the raising of the entire
amount. and there is so much left TO
raise that the committee. which is
working night and day over the mats
ter. is seriously worried as to the out
come.
Contributions. little or big. may be
sent to George p. Bissell, treasurer,
or to the Offices of the city newspa-

HlLLSNILLE, Va. March 22.-The
Hillsville posse which started early
Tuesday night and has not returned
from camping on the trail of the Allen
gang is absolutely in the dark as to
the whereabouts Of the murderers.
This was frankly admitted today by
Setective Belts in charge OF the
Baldwin operatives here.
I'VE haven't any definite informa-
tion,' he added I'VE believe the gang
may be roaming over the south side of
the Blue Ridge or they may have es-
capped into North Carolina. We are
operating on the belief they are in the

hunt but as to the probability of a
capture at any time, soon, neither |

MONEY in
SIGHT FOR
CITY SEWERS
Council and Street Department
Agree on Plan That Build
Ing May Proceed
ACT ON SUBJECT AT
NEXT COUNCIL MEETING

Members of City Council, sitting as
a committee of the whole. and the Di-
rectors of the Street and Sewer De-
partment, held conference in the
Mayors office following the regular
meeting of Council last night, rela-
tive to the question of the financial
needs of that department for sewer
improvements. The Street and Sewer
Commissioners set forth in detail just
what was needed in the way of funds
and explained that building operations
were now being held up because Of
the inability of the department to
provide sewer facilities. They con-
sidered that this work should not be
hindered for want of financial assist
ance from the Council, as IL was re-
tarding the progress OF the city and
was discouraging TO builders.
The members OF Council were salts
fed that something had to be done
and they expressed themselves as
willing to assist the department but
the only obstacle was the proper way
to do Il. The department has received
all the money allowed It under the
law for sewer improvements, which
this year was $4,000. The conclusion
was finally reached that the matter
be referred to the finance committee
of City Council and with the members
OF the Street and Sewer Commission,
shape up some plan whereby the ne
cessary financial assistance can be
given and the law not evaded. IL Is
most likely that this proposition will
be submitted TO the Council on next
Thursday night
The plan is TO sell bonds 10 the ex-
| tent Of $4,000 and turn the proceeds
over TO the Street and Sewer Commits
sion as a special fund for use in the
work of extension of sewers. There.is
also a plan under consideration 30 al.

money paid over 10 IL in sewer liens
