NEARLY ALL NATIONAL
BANKS IN NEW SYSTEM

Washington, Feb. 2S.-The new
federal reserve system will begin
business with a membership OF at
least 1900 banks. This was apparent
at the cloose Of the last day on which
national banks could signify their in
tention Of accepting the terms of the
currency law, less than fifty of the
7493 national banks of the country
having failed to RESPOND favorably.
More than enough state institutions
had applied for membership to bring
the total to 1900.
Most of the institutions that have
not come into the new system are
comparatively small and it is esti.
mated that 81 per cent OF all the capt.
tai and resources in the present ma
tional bank system Is represented by
those whose applications are filed.

from Washington to act as entertain

atty is alleged, but Mr.. Bones evil
dence was to the effect that the NOR
al influence and surroundings were

was some doubt as to whether this

hesitate to return the Indictment.
Another indictment returned was
that against Isaac Dangerfield the al

ed with taking girl from Billings,
Montana, to Pocatello Idaho. He will

American vessels.
Definite action to bring the repeal
question squarely before congress IS
expected within the next two weeks.
In the meantime, supporters of the

Democrats who have not yet made up
their minds as to the course they
will pursue to support the president
in the repeal of the toll exemption
