FEDERAL RESERVE BOARD
 AND STATE BANKERS MEET
Fail to Reach Conclusions How State Banks May Be Admitted Into S1s- fem


 Washington, Dec 8.-The federal re- serve board held it's conference today with representatives of state banks lations for their entrance to the feder- al system, but failed to reach point where definite rules to govern their ad- mission could be outlined. The com mittee of state bankers, appointed for the purpose of considering this qles- tion several months ago at the Rich mond meeting of the American Bank CTS association, later announced its inability to solye the problem for the present.
 The bankers will continue considera- ton of this matter and the board prob ably will take it up also with the gov = ernors of the twelve reserve banks on Thursday and with the federal advis- ory council at its first meeting to be held here, probably next week.
 Bankers here today tentatively offer ed one suggestion which did not meet with great favor among board mem bers. They proposed that state banks and trust companies be permitted to quit the federal system without the process of liquidation now required of banks which give Up their membership
 It was pointed out that if a large number of statk bankers were to enter the system and were to be- come a vital part of it they might be able in the future to exert undue in- fiuence through such an arrangement The board, some of it's members said might find embarrassment in the abiI- ity of thousands of bankers to with draw if 1t made rulings which they did not dike.

SOUTHWESTERN RAILROADS
 FILE FREIGHT RATE ADVANCE
If Not Suspended Increase Will Be-
 come Effective Jan. 5.

Washington, Dec S.-Advauces in freight rates, ranging from to Is per cent, have been filed with the In- terstate Commerce Commission by the railroads of the southwestern terri tory. If not suspended, the increases will become effective on January 5.
 The advances, which apply particu- larly to commodities, affect all freight but not in the same proportion. The increase is not a flat advance, appli- cable alike to all commodities. as was the case with the proposed advance by the eastern lines. but varies with the commodity, with the volume of traffic, with competition and with other con- ditions.
 The tariffs filed propose increases on fresh meats, packing house pro- ducts, foodstuffs generally, building materials, machinery, agricultural inn plements and on practically all of the standard freight commodities.

STORM DAMAGE ALONG
 NEW JERSEY COAST
Abseeen Island Sustained $25o,0oo Loss
 by the Northeaster.

Atlantic City, Dec. S.-The storm damage on Absecon Island, as the re- suit of the northeaster, is estimated at $250,000. Atlantic City, the prin- cipal municipality on the island. suf- fered damage estimated at $S0,0O0. Longport, at the southern end Of .Ab- secon, was damaged to the extent of sso,o00; Margate $30,ooO and Ventnor $60,00o
 The storm today dropped to a mere breeze and shower compared with the drenching gale that whipped the sea in this section for the last four days. Part of the island is still submerged. but normal conditions are being rapid ly established. Trolley car service has been generally resumed.
 The much battered music hall on the ocean end of the steel pier is still above water. but the management ex- poets to dynamite it if the damage to the hall is as severe as it appears.
 During the storm shipping remain ed well off shore and the coast guards were not called upon to help a single vessel. -z

rRAILEp BY BLOODHOUND.
Ellington Firebug Detected as Result of keenness of Rockville Police Dog,

4 bloodhound, and not State Police- man Robert T. Hurley alone, should have the credit for tracing the fire bug, Lawrence A. Welch, who set fire to a shed in Ellington Wednesday night and confessed to the crime Sat urday. The dog belongs to Captain Krause of the Rockville police force and is one of a pair which he procured a year ago to run down burglars with.
 After the fire First Selectman John IT. Lynch teiephoned to Captain Krause to send the bloodhounds over to Ellington. The female has a lit ter of puppies and had to be kept home, but the male dog was sent over in charge of Supernumerary Schultz. Although the captain couldn't say how the dog would act when trying the trail alone, he concluded to give the animal a chance.
 At the Partridge barn, the natural conclusion was that the f1rebug would have gone across a cornfield, back of the barn, as there are houses on both sides Of the Partridge barn and the persisted in taking a different course, going around an old chicken house and back into the barn where the men were who had put out the fire.
 That proved the right scent, as Welch, after setting the fire and cir (AlEiS OoL c14OA144 L4AS CllIChSH JdIQ- where he waited to see if the fire was discovered, returned and mingled with the fire fighters and apparently was working as hard as anyone to help put the fire out. Welch, who was ar rested by State Policeman Hurley af- forwards, admitted that he set the barn afire and said he made the cir cult as indicated by the hound.
 Captain Krause procured the pair of bloodhound puppies a. year and a half ago. The announcement that Rock vile had bloodhounds seems to have had the effect of putting stop to local burglaries in residential sections.
 For the past year. the captain and some of the supernumeraries have been training the dogs and one trip to the neighborhood of Coventry was g. memorable one for the man who was aiding the police in training the dogs. He left the fair grounds east of the city, and travelled about five miles. landing in Coventry, where the dogs trailed him, chasing him through barns and outbuildings, and finally freeing" their quarry on the roof o. a small shed, where he had climpet ! in an effort to fool the animals.

TO LENeTREN YEAR
 AT VALE UNIVERSITY
Suggestion Made by Secretary Stokes
 Would Add Week.

New Haven, Conn, Dec. 3.--A sug- gestion to lengthen the university year at Yale by week is made by Secre- tary Anson Phelps Stokes. in his an nual report made public today. Mr Stokes traces the calendar changes since the earliest days and the conl- parison is striking. Tn 1745, the total vacation periods amounted to eight weeks, with A. weeks of study Tn 1913. counting in all the extra ex- cused work days, including Sundays, allowances for 'fcuts,'' etc. MT. Stokes finds that the Yale student has 1S6 1-2 days of rest from the labors of the other 17S 1-2.
 The secretary believes that the year should start one week earlier, as is the custom in many colleges. He also suggests that a short optional reading term be started September 9th, which would give two or three weeks of Iit- erary work prior to the beginning of the regular term.

a good week, closing 10 to Is higher.

moved some of the bloom accumu-
lated last week, but sales here are
largely on a steady basis, receipts 12,-
900 head. The supply is made upof
a wide variety of offerings, but prime
quality is conspicuously lacking. Fed
natives stopped at IS. 65 today, where
as, the right kind of steers would
bring above So Native COWS are
eligible to $7.25, but not more than
a dozen choice COWS arrive in a day,
bulk selling at $500 to $6.75, bulls
at about the same figures. Stockers
and feeders are steady today and sell
at Sc 90 to 81. so, stock COWS and
heifers $525 to Sc. so. Pulp fed cat
tie from Colorado were included today,

from Oklahoma and Texas $675 to

Texas $3.50. The character of the
supply indicates that it is necessary
to use a drag net to total up a good

Work Advancing.
Underground work in the Inspira-

GUS rate of speed. During the month
of December a total advance of 1900
feet was made, 1850 feet of which
were in large drifts, 1850 in small
drifts and 1900 feet in raises. This
shows an increase in footage of 900
feet over the previous month. At the
present time the company is driving
approximately 80 different faces be-
sides the numerous raises. The main
west shaft has been enlarged for a
distance of 141 feet, new timbers be-
ing put in and within a short time

ultimately be occupied by the concen-
traitor equipment Also the site is con,

the delivery of the ore from the
mouth of the mine workings to the
concentrator bins will be made pos
sible with economy and efficiency.
1t is understood that the plans call
for erection of the plant in units.The
first unit to be put up will be in the

the theories which have been worked
out as to the needs of the ore that is
to be handled and which has now
been opened extensively, although be-
ing added to in quantity daily by the
continued prosecution of development
The operation of the test plant may
also determine some changes that
will be advisable in plans for other
units of the plant, but which can only
be learned about decisively through
actual operation on ore.
