ADOPT SAFETY MEASURES
Banks Of This State Follow Lead OF
Eastern Cities.

Eastern Cities.
Following the lead of New York,
Chicago and other cities commercial
and savings banks of Minneapolis, St.
Paul and Duluth placed themselves on
basis where the disturbances
abroad, as reflected through New
York, will not prevent them from TAX
ing care of legitimate needs of busi-
ness. Certain restrictions concerning
the withdrawal of cash were adopted
by all the banks.
The action taken is like that which
tided over a financial crisis in 1907
and prevented business unsettlement,
with this important exception, that as
the result of federal legislation since
that time there is now available in
Washington a fund of $500, 00,0OO
which the banks can obtain.
Until this $500,000,0o0 fund can be
distributed to the banks withdrawals
of cash will be limited. All checks
will pass in ordinary manner and any
depositor may check against his credit
UaAcANO do uSudAs OuI III SAAHAVAL0
of currency will be made to country
banks while the restrictions remain
in force. Legitimate cash require.
ments, including payrolls, will be pro-
vided. But cash Withdrawals from
commercial banks will be discouraged
and all business people urged to use
checks.
Savings banks will pay $25 to any
depositor desiring to withdraw that
sum. Sixty-day notices will be re-
quired for the withdrawal of larger
sums up to $1,000 and ninety-day no.
tices for sums exceeding $1,000, which
is a constantly existing legal right to
which the savings banks and savings
departments will now have recourse.

.R|NEs GAINS EIGHTY FOUR
Six Counties Out of Eighty-six Com
pieted on Revision Of Ballots
on Authorship.

With six of the eighty-six counties
# Minnesota recounted on the Repub.
:lan vote for state auditor the lead
i J. A. o. Preus over Henry Rines
IS been reduced from 1857 to 971.
he recount is now going on in Ram
sey county and Hennepin will come
acxt. There has been a gain for
Rines in each county recounted so far
as follows:
St. Louis 26, Pine 4, Kanabec 2.
Mile Lacs Is, Sherburne rs, Anoka IA.
In addition there are fifty ballots
in dispute, marked as exhibits. Out
of these ballots Rines claims gain
of ten for him. ..-
In st. Louis county the recount of
ballots gave Rines gain of ninety
three, but two mistakes of the county
canvassing board, both of them
against Preus, were discovered, CIV
ing Preus gain of sixty-eight. Many
votes were added to all the candidates
by the recount. The failure of elec-
tion clerks to count votes marked in
the second choice column was respon-
sible for this. First choice votes
gained in St. Louis county by the re-
count were: Block 250, Preus 312,
Rines 1923. The second choice vote
was doubled. because most of the
election judges failed to make an in
telligible return. The Preus second
choice vote in the county was in
creased from 14S to 345 and the Rines
vote from 1876 to 4D7.
Messrs. Preus and Rines personally
are watching the recount and have
dispensed with attorneys for the most
part.
