Various banks in different sections

it necessarily reduced their profit. In

the deposits"
In distinction from the three New
York City banks which withdrew.
twenty national bank depositaries in
New York City have informed the de-
partment that they desire TO retain the
deposits and that they will pay the 2
per cent interest.
The deposits surrendered by the
seven declining banks are being dis
tributed 10 other banks throughout the
country. in addition 10 the S1o,0D.Go0
which has just been allotted TO them.
The aggregate amounts to $l1. .jSl 900.
Some Deposits Reduced.
Besides Withdrawing the government
deposits from the seven banks retiring
as depositarieS, the Secretary has also
reduced the deposits in a number Of
other banks which at the close Of the
last administration. held amounts
which seemed to be excessive or un-
justified. The reductions in most cases
we're made against the protests Of the
ban. which desired 10 retain the funds
Notwithstanding the interest charge.
The distribution Of the new deposits
will be as follows:

Broke Bread with immigrants.

Throughout the voyage the only con-
cossion the Bishop allowed himself was
the convenience Of one Of the large
two-berth rooms, which he occupied
alone. Sometimes his meals, consist
ing entirely OF steerage fare. were
served 10 him in this room, but usually
he sat down at one Of the big tables
and broke bread with the immigrants.
The Bishop thought the food excel
lent and the accommodations splendid.
He said he would return to the Philip
pines i'm .about two months. From
Washington he will go to his home in
Boston.

Some third class passengers who had

was an American citizen. on his way to

DEEP SNOW BLANKET
COVERED THE EARTH
Eight Inches Had Fallen When People
Awoke This Morning-Fast Melt
ing and Will Help Springs.

When the snow began to trickle down
yesterday few expected to awaken
this morning to see snowclad earth.
but the garment was there to the depth
of eight inches, and on the walks it
appeared to be eight feet in depth, to
those who had to man the shovels. 1t
was after clock before the storm
ceased, having added another inch or
more since morning, and long before
that some of the drivers of vehicles had
tried out the runners for the first time.
But the ground was not frozen and the
rising mercury indicated that this fall
was for short time only.
The snow did not seriously handicap
transportation on either the electric or
steam roads, and three broken feed
pipes used for filling watering carts
appeared. to be the only damage caused
by either the cold or the storm.
If this snow goes off lit will help fill
many OF the springs, some of which
went dry during the summer for the
first time in years and all of which
have been low.

Deputy Sheriff Herbert f. Harris had
a long automobile ride last night, but
returned to town with 5000 that he had
started out to recover if it were pos
siblc to do so.
Harry Foster, who lives on the Slate

toned place in the house When he
was ready to return he could not find
Mrs. Brodie and when he arrived home
alone he did not find her daughter at
the house, where she had been left II
required but a few minutes for Mr.
Foster to satisfy himself that he had
not only lost his housekeeper and her
daughter, but that he was shy 5000 as
well.
He spent some time in ma king in
qulrlcs IN the neighborhood and in trv-
ing to locate the missing women and
money, but without success, and final
ly he appealed to Deputy Sheriff Har-
ris. X. +. Moshcr $ big ear with
George Martell at the wheel was Sc
cured and at lI.3O clock last night
Harris started for Foster S house and
picked him up.

somewhere in the vicinity of Millers
Falls. Down through Northfield went
the sheriff and Foster, and there they
picked up Deputy Sheriff Pond Inquiry
finally led them to a house near the
Northfeld Millers Fails line and they
found the two women there.
At first Mrs. Brodie stoutly denied
that she had the money, but finally ad-
mittcd that any money she had was
what Foster owed her. Finally her
daughter was asked to Get the money
and soon returned with it and handed
it to the officer. Foster declined to
bring any proceedings against the
woman. being satisfied to get his money
back. 1T was 40 clock this morning
when Mr.. Harris reached Brattleboro.
