Trenton. N. j.. Sept. 23.-That the
International Power company, during
the last ten years has been stripped
of properties and stocks which pro-
duced an income OF s225.000 annual
ly and for which ii has now nothing to

Henry W. Bull, the New York broker,
in his amended bill of complaint. filed

Elsewhere In the bill Mr. Bull
charges that the power company is

nothing more than "A clearing house

In an effort to conceal the alleged
fraudulent diversion Of the PROPERTY of
the company, once rated as d pros

classification of records. and the MAX
ing OF false returns to the federal

Although the trial balance OF the
International Power company showed

Secretary McAdoo Finds Banks
of Country Are Eioarding
Funds
Threatens TO Use
The Big Stick
Declares That Many lnstitu-
tons Are Holding Sums Not
Justified by Business Condi-
tons

Washington. Sept. 23.---Sccretary of
the Treasury Mc.Adoo issued IA state
nent tonight In which he announces
that an investigation by the comp
troller of tho currency has disclosed
excessive boarding of money on the
part OF many national banks In vari-
Gus sections of the country with an
accompanying increase of interest
rates far beyond reasonable require
ments.
Treasury officials says that cases
have been found where reserves have
been boarded to as high as rs per
cent. The minimum reserve require
ments are IS per cent for country
banks. and 25 per cent for reserve and
central reserve cities.
The comptroller's investigation has
been most complete with respect TO
the banks Of the South. 1t was to
the South that the treasury depart
ment loaned the greater part of the
crop fund of 49,. 100000 which was
offered a short time before the out
break Of the European war.
SO convincing was the result Of the
investigation with regard to vhe
boarding OF reserves and raising of
interest rates by the Southern banks
that the secretary has decided to
withhold the second installment OF
the crop deposits which ordinarily
would have been sent to Southern
reserve cities In a short time. This
afternoon he sent a telegram to the
banks In these reserve cities. announc-
ing his decision concerning the second
installment OF the crop fund, and
stating further that he would with
draw all government deposits from,
and refuse issues of emergency cur
rency to. banks charging excessive in
terest rates, and refusing reasonable
accommodations to the business meSs
of their communities.
AS for banks in other sections or
the country, as Well as IN the South,
which have been guilty of this con-
duct. the secretary makes the threat
that he will issue daily list of those
reports showing boarding of reserves.
