MARKETS---FINANCE---COMMERCE CE

especially in smaller communitieA the
trust companies devote most attention to
Offering banking facilities. Reliable sta
ustics have also been obtained to show
that the enormous gains In banking de-
posits reported by trust companies have
not been secured by encroaching upon
the operations of national or State banks
of discount. National and State banks
have continued and increased their rela-
tive expansion since trust companies
came into the field, and the latter are
recognized as necessary in af1ording ac-
commodations which other types OF
banking institutions do not extend.
Where deposit accounts are opened with
a view of securing loan accommodations
the banks are justified in not paying any
interest If they SO desire. Corporations
keeping large balances are attracted to
trust companies because adequate inter-
est return is made in consideration OF
having the use of such funds for stipu-
lated periods of time.
The banking facilities offered by trust
companies differ in many respects from
those offered by either national or State
banks of discount. Most of the funds
of corporations and individuals or busi-
ness houses, where no commercial loans
are required. come to the trust COM
panies.
Among the larger and older trust COM
panies in certain States no effort Is
made to make loans based on commercial
paper or to grant discounts. In num-
Der of States, however, the laws permit
trust companies to either negotiate COM
merciaI loans or purchase commercial
paper.
The great increase in banking resources
OF trust companies also is due in large
measure to the many other services
which they render to clients and Is an
outgrowth of such business. II trust
company executes a mortgage to issue
new bonds or stocks, where a trust COM
pany acts as holder of the mortgage. a
sinking fund must be provided to pay on
obligations as they mature or balances
must be maintained to meet coupon and
dividend payments. Such funds are best
carried by the trust companies and the
corporation does not lose any interest
premiums for idle funds. There are
numerous instances where banking facil-
tiles are called for in connection with
the appointment of trust companies as
executor, Trustee under will. as admin
istrator of estates, guardian. or as
trustee under corporation mortgages and
reorganizations. 1t stands to reason that
facilities can best be offered by one in
stitution than in keeping separate ac-
counts in different banks.

Cleveland Still
Paralyzed by Snow.

This city is recovering from the
worst blizzard that ever held Cievs-

Communication by rail and wire is
gradually being restored Famine
which began to be felt yesterday be-
cause of the complete isolation of
the city from outside sources of food

reach the city.
Snow is piled many feet deep ev-
grywhere. Warmer weather and rain
are forecast. Should q downpour
come Cleveland would find itself in
the throes of the worst flood in Its
history.
The water supply is in an unpre-
aedentedly dangerous condition.
Cleveland draws it's service from Lake
Erie and has no filtration system.
The storm has made the water so
-urhid and muddy, and has so be-
touIed it with sewage, which the city
mpries into the lake that it is I'M
triukable. Yet thousands af families
nave no means of obtaining other

Eires have already caused the death

nave been injured.
The suffering among the poor has

1t is impossible to bury the city's
dead because the streets are so block

WASHINGTON, Nov. 12.-Presi-
dent Wilson is making a final effort
10 bring the Huerta and Carranza
factions together in Mexico and to
md a man satisfactory to both ele-
ments for provisional President, ac-
cording to a report current in ad-
minlstration circles to-day. 1t is be-
leVed that William Bayard Hale has
presented a list of names to General
Carranza at Nogales and that john
Limo is sounding out the Huerta re-
glme on the same candidates in Mex
leo City.
Secretary Of State BRYAN refused
this Afternoon to discuss the Paris re-
port that the United States mas re-
quested France to demand the resig-
nation of Huerta.
Rear Admiral Fletcher, commanding
the United States warships at Vera
Cruz, reported to the Navy Depart
ment that the battleship Louisiana
will remain at Tuxpan to await the
outcome of the battle there. although
all Americans have been taken out Of
danger. He also reported that the
Michigan has sailed for Tampico.
Wilson will issue a statement
within a fortnight making clear the
exact purposes of this Government in
the present Mexican crisis. according
to the accepted belief in official cir
cles to-day.
It is known the President has been
urged to give to the House an out
line of his policies before November
20, when the new Mexican Congress
will meet. 1t is argued the puDlica-
ton of such statement directly be-
fore the converting of the Congress
would discount whatever effect the
latter would have on the situation 1t
