KUHN BANK TO
OPEN VERY SOON
Agreement by Depositors to Accept
Payment at Certain
Intervals

From financial papers in the east
1t Is ascertained that there Is at pres
.ent every indication that the First
Second National bank of Pittsburg, OF
which the Kuhns were the principal
stockholders and leading spirits and
which was responsible for their fin
cial difficulties will soon reopen.
According to reports an arrange
ment is being made with the deposit
ors whereby they will consent to re-
payment of their deposits at certain
intervals, thus giving the bank an
opportunity to realize upon Its Sc.
curities before being pressed to the
wall again after opening. 1t Is said
that practically 30 per cent of the
lepositors have agreed to the ar
rangements proposed and that the
matter of opening the bank again to
business has been taken up with the
Government, whose consent will be
necessary before this can he done.
The plan suggested seems to be
very similar to that proposed In the
case of the Capital State bank in
this city soon after the failure OF that
institution and which came near prov
ing successful, the effort being de-
feated through the efforts Of certain
agencies here, which took advantage
of the opportunity afforded by court
records to make public the list OF se-
curities of the institution, thus
destroying the confidential relation
necessary to make any banking in
stitution successful.
The rehabilitation Of this banking
institution would be the final act In
placing the Kuhn interests back to
heir former condition before failure
was announced. Announcement has
already been made of the fact that
investments In which they were In
terested aside from the banking bust
less have recovered from the failure

Recognition of the fact that auto
mobile travel is a great item in the
modern life Of man is coming fast.
The latest evidence Of the belief
that travel by auto is a fixed habit
comes from the officials OF the
Mountain States Telephone & Tele-

This company has notified all OF
it's exchanges to supply accurate In
formation of the condition OF the
roads to all travellers by auto, who
may inquire. The intention is to
enable the fpublic to avoid bad
roads and keep to the highways bes'
adapted to travel. This Information
is highly essential to strangers
who are unfamiliar with the condi
tions Of the mountain roads, and II

[ CAREL ESSNESS
CAUSES BIG LOSS
Disappearance Of Bill Requiring Car
ID Companies to File Statements

The state Of Idaho is the loser by
between 10000 and $4,000 in taxes
AZ the result of the negligence OF
clerks in the senate of the last legis-
lature, who are held responsible for
the loss OF an important bill passed
by the house and sent to the senate
where It disappeared after the first
reading, according to the declaration
Of John D. Robertson, before the
state board of equalization, while 1t
was In session in this city. The bill
provided for the taxation of Pullman
and private car companies. Failure
to pass it placed the state board Of
eqnalization up against a knotty pro-
blem In the assessment and equaliza-
tion Of the valuations OF the Pullman
and private car companies operating
In this state. The problem is still
9ansolyed. but the details in connec-
ton with the valuations will be set
tied this week
When the board was in session and
had reached the Pullman and private
car valuation feature of the duties
Of an equalization board, 1t was dis
covered very few Of these companies
had filed their annual statements
with the state auditor and therefore
the data necessary to work out and
arrive at q fair valuation for these
companies was not at hand. Two
years ago the board had a difficult
time arriving at the valuations OF
the holdings of these companies, but
= it was difficult task then, 1t
was stupenduous task that the
present board tackled.
Finally the state board decided to
consult with John D. Robertson, sec
retary Of the state tax commission
on the matter. As an expert en-
ployed by the last state board Mr.
Robertson had been able to gather
sufficient data on which to work out
/ these assessments at that time. II
was expected that the private ant
Pullman car companies would file
their annual statements this year
placing in the hands of the boarc
the information needed, but they dit
not and Mr.. Robertson was requested
to furnish it. He tackled the jol
after he declared to the board tina
carelessness on the part Of clerks IL
the senate OF the last legislature hat
lost a bill that had been special!
drafted for the purpose of making tf
assessment Of Pullman and privat'
car companies comparatively cas-
- and As aeresiiit Of the loss and tn
negligence, the state would stand t
lose from $4,000 to $4,000 in taxes
He asserted it was a most importan
measure and should have been pass
ed and transmitted to the govefno
