MOTHER SAYS
MISSING SON IS
UNDER SPELL
Begs Police to Find Lost Boy She
Says Was Lured Away by
Another's Influence.

Telling a story of the domination
of one lad over another, Mrs. z. B.
DurCe, of No. 5 Louise street, made a
pathetic appeal Saturday night to the
police to find her missing son How
ard, who dropped out of sight mys-
teriously the day after New Years.
Mrs. Durce had, in fact, accom-
panied the lad at his own request to
the postoffice, where he was to draw
his pay as a special delivery boy.
She waited in the lobby for him to
return. She grew anxious over the
length Of time he had been gone.
Just as she was on the point OF
making inquiry Leo Burge, the lad
whom she accuses of exercising the
mysterious power over young Durce,
appeared and remarked, according to
her story, that she never would see
Howard again" and informing her
indirectly that Durce had started In
the direction OF Chattanooga and
Cincinnati
Durce diserneared FRIDAY night.
January 2. Rurre left town mystic
riouslv the SUNDAY night following.
Whether thew are together or not Mrs.
Duroe does not know.
Howard is the best bow maeinable
when he IS at home and not under
Leo BURGESS influence" said Mrs,
Durce. Put inst the minute that Leo
throws his spell over my son there is
trouble right away.
"T have taken Howard awav from
one Job after another and Leo has
always followed him sooner or later.
7 am afraid that harm has come to
Howard. If 7 might only know
where he is and that he is safe it
would be a great relief.'

from Fort Bayard, New Mexico, to

With the arrival of the secretary,
the official body will start its final
preparations for the weeks work,

that some of the big men who were
to have spoken, did not come.

The Valley Bank will reopen
This was practically assured yester-
day evening after a meeting of the
directors and a committee of the de-
positors, with whom the matter of
negotiating with the directors was
left at the depositors' meeting held
at the Armory several weeks ago.
The negotiations for the reorganiza-
ton and re-opening of the institu-
tion took a great step forward yes
terday. The first step of Importance
was when Il committee of prominent
bankers of the southwest met at the
instance and invitation of State Bank
Comptroller Callaghan and decided
the proposition that had been put up
to the old directors was a good one
and ought to be accepted The sec
ond step and one that made all those
engaged in the negotiations feel par
ticularly happy was the announce
ment last night from the Arizona
club following a lengthy conference
between representatives of all parties
concerned that the depositors' COM
proposition and would all lend a hand
to bring the matter to a successful
consumation
The matter now rests with the de-
positors of the bank who in a few
days will be asked to subscribe
twenty-five per cent of their de-
posits as preferred stock of the new
organization to- which amount will
be added the substantial pledge of
the directors of the bank of enough
more funds and collateral to fulfill
the demands of the interests repre-
sented at the conference by the ella
Valley Bank and Trust Company.
The final details of organization
were placed in the hands of a com
mittee of the depositors, with whom
were working at midnight last night
a number of prominent financiers and
lawyers. and it is expected that all
the details will be decided upon in a
manner satisfactory to the state
banking authorities by this evening.
1t may take a little time from this
on to finish the work of re-organiza-
ton but that it will go on is the
unanimous opinion of both the visit

depositors.

CHICAGO, Dec. Interest in the

Willim S. Carter, president of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen

it of vital importance that their pay
be computed on basis of the weight

right to a share in the profits of their

The only other witness of the day
was Samuel T. Steinberger. clerk

the present rates of pay on every
type of locomotive used on most of
the railroads party to arbitration, as
compared with the rates which the
compilation purports to show would
be paid if the proposed schedule is
awarded.
Steinberger stated that the latter
rates were calculated without copsid-
