FARMERS AUCTION

The Richmond Evening Journal, Z
il commenting upon the Farmers
Auction. insueurated by the VIII
liamsburg Business Association
gives the plan its endorsement.
The eyes OF the people of the state.
al least those who are interested in
her upgrowth. are upon this move
ment. which should stimulate Us all |
TO greater efforts. The Journal says:
An experiment in the way of a /
farmers weekly auction IS being
tried at Williamsburg and promises
70 become : useful institution.
We gather from The Virginia
Gazette. which has encouraged the
movement from the beginning. that
IL IS already a success.
we understand that the idea IS
10 hold an auction every Saturday,
10 which may be brought by the
farmers any animal or product which
any other farmer is likely 10 desire.
and there sell It.
The articles sold last Satur-
day." says The Glzette. brought
T the very best prices; in tome cases,
t more even than had been asked by
= the owners at private sale. One
D farmer sold hogs that netted him s.
more than he had asked. Anothei
who had been selling his shoats a
home at So apiece received over s
for them at the auction, and since
then has been asking and gettinI
that price for his shoats at the farm
This IS a sample of the value OF tn
sales TO the farmer"
&c The above facts seem to demon
u s,rate the value of the Williamsburg
E. Saturday auction. and we have n
~ doubt that such a weekly meeting
{. valuable in sffording an opportunit
Id for an exchange Of views on man
~ things OF mutual interest TO the farm

20 Ever since the change in the cou
system IL Virginia the farmers Of Il
, safe have missed the old court Ga
= meetings. when in every county
TIE state the farmers assembled on'
y a monrh at the county seat, bong
u aud sold. paid and collected deb
d aud exchanged ideas on many su'
Us jscts.
The Saturday auction seems
ne offer a substitute for the once Po
W ular county court day. and IT'S dew

PRESSING CLAIMS
 FOR RESERVE BANKS. Half a Dozen of the Big Cities Already
 in the Field.

Washington, Dec. 25-Active cam paigning for federal reserve banks to be established under the new banking and currency system has been begun uy 8 half dozen big cities in different parts of the United States. Among the scores of telegrams received today at the treasury department more than half were devoted to stating the req sons for executive approval of their claims.
 Secretaries McAdoo and Houston, the organization committee' authorized by the new law to choose the reserve cities, today considered tentative plans for making up the list of not less than eight and not more than twelve cities to be given federal banks. Under the law the organization committee is giv en the utmost freedom in naming these cities, and the two cabinet officers in tend to make an exhaustive but rapid inquiry into the geographical advan- tages and financial relations of most of the large cities
 The campaign for a reserve bank has been press most vigorously by Seat tie. Scores of teiegrams were received today from bankers and business men of Seattle pointing out it's proximity to Alaska which is to be included in the system, it's advantages as a financial center, and other reasons for giving it @ reserve bank.

CARDINAL RAMPoLLA'S
 APARTMENTS SEALED
Precaution Taken Because of Disap-
 psaranoe of His Will.

Rome. Dec. 25.@The apartments oc- coupled by the late Cardinal Rampolla have been sealed up in consequence of request made by Monsignor Di Bi- sogno, administrator of St. Peters. This step was urged by Cardinal Mer- ry del Val, papal secretary of state, simply to guarantee the safety of doc uments of great interest to the church. the possible loss of which was sug gested by persistent reports regarding the disappearance of Cardinal Ram polla's last will and testament.
 That a will was executed by Car dinal Rampolla, bearing a later date than the will found is considered cer- tain because the cardinal left key with a tag attached, on which was in scribed in his own handwriting the statement that the key opened a box containing his will and those close to the cardinal think if incredible that he would net alter his testament of 1889, explaining that his estate had grown four-fold since that date.
 The box referred to has not been found and so far no one has come for ward to say that he has absolute Knowledge of the existence of the tes- tament reported to be missing. There is nc evidence that it was stolen and ne claims have been set up by anyone that he has sustained damage by the loss of the will. The authorities there fore are net in a position to take action because, according to the Italian law
