tFrom The Tribune Bureau. ]

Washington, July 9.-Indications OF
criminal prosecution OF those responsible
for the failure Of the First-Second Ma
tioral Bank OF Pittsburgh and the loss
of several million dollars were strength
ened to-day by the report OF Thomas F.
Kane, Controller of Currency, TO the Sec
rotary of the Treasury on his return
from Pittsburgh.
Mr. Kane confirmed the suspicious of
Secretary McAdoo that there is much
questionable paper in the bank and that
there are strong evidences OF reckless
II not dummy" loans He was unable TO
give the amount OF what he believed 10
be bad loans, but intimated that en-
tanglement OF the Kuhn interests will
be extensive
Secretary McAdoo said this afternoon
that the general situation in financial
circles I'm Pittsburgh has cleared up and
that there is not the slightest danger OF
any OF the other banks being affected by
the failure of the Kuhn institution. The
Pittsburgh Clearing House has the situa-
ton well In hand. he said, and no alarm
is felt. The McKeesport National Bank
will probably open next week. but pre-
requisite OF reopenlng. according TO Mr..
McAdoo. is that the Kuhns must retire
from the board OF directors.

LIKES MUSIC UNDERGONE
Mayor Reiterates His Fondness
for Local Bands.

Mayor Gaynor sent letter yesterday 10
Mrs. Isaac l.. Rice, Of the Ansonia, 13d
street and Broadway. to express his
pleasure at the success of the programme
for the Fourth OF July He wrote:
81 thank you for your letter, and espe-
c!ally for your article on The Child and
the Fourth. II shows the many ways in
which our boys and girls can celebrate
Independence Day with pleasure and
profit. On last Friday Independence Day.
went from my house through the Bor-
ough of Brooklyn and through the Bor-
ough of Queens to the city line. What l
saw gave me the greatest of pleasure.
did not hear the sound Of an explosive
anywhere But every few blocks my
motor car was stopped at the crossing
and l got out and saw local procession
go By.
These professions were made up mostly
Of school children, but there were in them
also a good many grown-up people. What
delighted me was that they had their own
local bands of music. The number OF
these bands seems to be growing all over
the city. Boys come together, eachi one
furnishing a musical instrument. and
practise music and make up regular mu-
steal bands This always has been so all
through the country districts not only in
the villages but in the farm districts, and
even up into the edge Of the Adirondacks.
IT has always seemed TO me that we
should encourage the forming Of such
bands here.
Some people want the city TO hire
bands and put them everywhere to play
music. think il is much better to en-
courage the forming of these volunteer
bands They are an education TO those
who belong to them and delight TO the
whole neighborhood. 1t is not every one
who can understand classical music. Very
few understand IL. But. Of course. the
city should furnish public music also in
the parks and at the principal centres.
Yes, 1t makes every one rejoice that the
Gripping, binding and killing Of children
and grown people by explosives on indie
pendence Day is thing OF the past"

COLBY Rejects JOINT TOUR
Declines Osborne's Invitation
to Speak from Same Platform.

Former State Senator Everett Colby
replied in Newark yesterday to the let
ter addressed to him by Edmund 3.
Osborne inviting him to campaign the
state with him and speak from the same
platform to the Progressves. so that they
may decide which Of the two they want
for their Gubernatorial candidate.
AS was predicted, Mr.. Colby declines
the invitation. He, however, agrees TO
Jointly debate with Mr.. Osborne any real
principle II II should be shown near the
close Of the campaign that Mr.. Osborne
had been denied any right to which he
was entitled.
Mr. Colby. In giving his reasons for not
accepting. makes IL clear that he does not
propose TO make a canvass for the noml-
nation. He says that the Progressive
State Committee, at a meeting in Asbury
Park, went on record as being opposed 10
such plan OF campaign. Furthermore,
he says that his experience In public de
bate with political opponents has con-
WINGED him that they do not make for n
clear exposition OF ideas and that they
are OF little value in forming public opin-
ion.

ment on his return from Pittsburgh to-
day:
The situation in Pittsburgh is rapidly
clearing up. II was purely a local dis
turbance. and extended only TO the Kuhn
banks and Kuhn interests. I have seen
more excitement over the failure or a
$500 bank than there was over the
failure OF this large concern.
THE condition OF the bank had been
we'll known in banking circles for long
time in Pittsburgh. New York and else
where, so that the failure caused very
Little disturbance or excitement
The closing OF the bank is a good
thing for Pittsburgh. as IL removes a sore
spot and a source OF anxiety and threat
ened disturbance that has existed for
some time. and clears the banking and
financial atmosphere of that city. There
T.. no cause for further anxiety.
The bank should have been cleaned
up or closed up at the time Of the merger
OF the two institutions"
Mr.. Kane added that at that time TIE
First Nationals capital was badly I'm
paired. and the bank was notified last
December that its impaired capital must
be restored.
