Williams on his return from Pittsburg.
He also limited at possible investiga
ton by the department of justice.
Williams declared that between So

out by bad loans, but that there We're
probably sufficient assets to pay the de-
positors. making the loss fall on the
stockholders.
That there was possible evidence of
gross mismanagement and lack of NOR
al foresight in the banks affairs was
asserted by Mr.. Williams. He stated
that he had been authorized to offer
the Pittsburg clearing house S5,00O,000
bonds from the treasury to provide
against possible contingencies in connec-
ton with the banks failure, but that
the clearing house had declined the ten
der. stating they were able to cope with
the situation.
The examination made by the de-
partment shows favoritism in the banks
ioans,' Mr.. Williams said, "and in gen
eral an extremely bad condition. II
showed that the bank was apparently
financing the private projects of those
in the institution"

dorsed to the Governor for the posi-
ton.

capacity of State Game Wadren since
the office was created, has the back
ing of a large number of sincere par
tisans for reappointment, but the
knowing ones predict that he will
lose. nevertheless.
This is one of the best offices with
in the gift Of the administration. Mr.
Mercer has taken great interest and
has been very active in the admins
