Long a Sore Spot.

This bank, which was handed down
from the last administration, has for
some time been sore spot in the local
situation, and its liquidation became
inevitable.
"The Kuhns of Pittsburgh were in
terested in the First-Second Bank and
also In the First National Bank OF Nc
Keesport. The latter also closed its
doors as a result Of the formers failure.
The general banking condition in Pitts
burgh is sound, and no further trouble
with banks is expected.
THE acting Controller had no alter
native in the circumstances but TO take
charge OF the First-Second National
Bank, in order TO prevent the with
drawal OF large deposits, which had
already begun. and TO secure for the
small depositors equal treatment with
the large ones. Everything will be
done by the acting Controller TO further
prompt liquidation Of the banks assets.

City in a Turmoil.

The tragedy has caused the most in
tense excitement throughout the city.
All political clubs were ordered closed.
Central Park and the Prado were pa -
trolled bv squads of police, who pre-
vented any assembling in groups A
strong force OF rurales is being held In
reserve.
General Riva is an officer OF the reg
ular army. He was appointed chief OF
the national police by President Gomez
and reappointed by President Menocal.
He is considered an efficient and fear
less officer.
Some fears aro entertained lest the
friends Of General Riva attempt TO
wreak vengeance on Governor Asbert,
and for this reason the authorities are
anxious TO place him in custody as soon
as possible.
President Menocal summoned a
meeting of the Cabinet tonight. at
which It was decided TO convene i'm
mediately the Supreme Court, In whose
charge the accused men have been
placed. This course was necessary be-
cause the assailants of General Riva,
on account OF their official station, are
not amenable 10 the ordinary courts.
Official Statement Issued.
II is thought that the Supreme Court
will not decide on its future action
until after the cabinet meeting to-
morrow. The following official state
ment was given out at the Palace:
"The city is completely tranquil but
precautions have been taken TO pre-
vent any further disturbance resulting
from public excitement.
"The government is determined 10
proceed with the utmost energy In de-
fence OF order, and has no doubt that
the highest tribunal in the republic
will pursue the right course.
THE event appears TO have no rela-
tion 10 rolitics, originating from the
suppression of prohibited games IN the
General Asbert and General Betan-
court clubs by General Siva.'
Late tonight the superior officers OF
the army and rurales were summoned
TO the palace and received from Presi-
dent Menocal personally directions to
insure against any disturbance OF order
I'm any part Of the island.

SEVERE BLOW IS

SHARKS
N. Y. COURT OF APPEALS HOLDS
ILLEGAL ExAcTINe EXPENSE
MONEY OF VICTIMS.

Albany, N. Y, Jan. 23.-The court
of appeals Tuesday dealt a severe blow
to the so-called "loan shark" business
when it held as illegal the practice of
exacting additional sums from borrow
ers under the guise of payments for
expenses incurred in drawing up pa
pers and examining titles to property
The court says that under law
recently enacted, persons or corpora
tons engaged in loaning money on
personal property cannot charge more
than per cent interest per month
and not more than so for expenses
incurred on loans of less than 5000.
The decision was rendered in case
originating in New York City. where
an additional payment of $40 to third
person was required for examining the
title to property upon which $65 loan
was made. The court held that the
so limit for expenses applies where
attorneys or other outsiders are thus
employed.

HOW TO PLANT A TREE.

l. Dig the hole wider and deeper
than the tree requires. If the tree
just fits into the socket the tips of
the roots will meet hard wall which
they are too delicate to penetrate,
hold fast to, or feed in.
II. Be sure that the surface soil is
boarded at one side when the hole is
dug. This soil is mellow and full of
plant food. The under soil is harder
and more barren. Some rich garden
soil can we'll be brought over and used
instead of this subsoil.
III. Take up as large a root sys-
tenn as possible with the tree you dig.
The smaller the ball of earth, the
greater the loss of feeding roots and
the danger of starvation to the tree.
w. Trim all torn and broken roots
with sharp knife. A ragged wound
below or above the ground is slow
and uncertain in healing. A clean,
slanting cut heals soonest and surest.
V. Set the tree on a bed of mel
low soil with all its roots spread nat
urally.
vi. Let the level be the same as
before. The trees roots must be
planted, but not buried too deep to
breathe. A stick laid across the hole
at the ground level will indicate
where the tree collar" should be.
VII. Sift rich earth, free from
clods, among the roots. Hold the
tree erect and firm; lift It little to
make sure the spaces are well alled
underneath. Pack it well down with
your foot.
VIII. If In the growing season, pour
in water and let II settle away. This

TX. Fill the hole with dirt. Tramp

the tree firm in its place.
X. Prune the top to a few main
branches and shorten these. This ap-
plies to sapling of few years whose
head you are able to form. Older
trees should also be pruned to bal
ance the loss of roots. Otherwise
Transportation of water from the foliage
would be so great as to overtax its

abuse. People canot bear to cut back
the handsome top though a handsom-
err one is soon supplied by following
this reasonable rule.
XI. Water the tree frequently as
it first starts. A thorough soaking of
all the roots, not a mere sprinkling
of the surface soil, is needed. Con-
tinuous growth depends on moisture in
the soil. Drainage will remove the
surplus water.
XII. Keep the surface soil free
from cakes or cracks. This prevents
excessive evaporation. Do not stir
the soil deep enough to disturb the
roots. Keep out grass and Weeds
