Taylor, who for ten years, through
an arrangement made by Mr.. Allies,
has been furnishing the National City
Bank of New York with information
concerning the condition OF other

try.
Mr.. Allies said that he would make
every effort to have the action OF TIT
Secretary in removing Miss Taylor
from the office of the Comptroller o
the Currency rescinded.

Augusta ADDle cr0p.

Mr.. Walter Whately, Secretary Of
the State Horticultural Society, is
quoted in the Charlottesville Progress
as taking very rosy view Of apple
prospects in Augusta county this
year. He says his information is that
Augusta will have good crop. If
Mr.. v hately can find any apples in
Augusta county except in the orchards
on high ground, he can do more than
our apple growers can do. Not all of
the high ground will bear full crop,
SO that the estimate of Augusta grow
ers of 30 to 40 per cent If crop seems
to be about right -Staunton Leader.

wires in order to inform headquarters
of their wherea bouts, but as there are
no phones available after midnight it is
