In q statement given out short
ly after the jury brought in a
verdict of not guilty in his case,
Lieutenant Governor Bilbo is re-
ported to have said:
THE motives and character OF
this prosecution, from its in
ception down to this hour, if ever
fully told would be unbelievable
and unthinkable."
Such a statement coming from
one of the principals in this state
scandal after so much has been
said by both himself and his
arch enemy can mean nothing il
it does not mean that the truth
has not been told. And this is
about the case. Bilbo and Brew

The healthy financial con-
dition of this community
is made known by state
ments Of the three banks of
this city published in this issue.
The banks of this city are not
only able to carry the loans
which are deemed advisable to
carry here but they have consid-
cradle money with other banks
where the demand for money is
greater than here. A perusal Of
the statements in question will
show that our banks now have
due them from other banks the
sum Of 1914, 361.89 while they
are due other banks only 1914. So.
The difference between these
sums with the cash on hand
gives them the nice sum of
1888, 426.72 to begin the cotton
season to say nothing of about
$500, 600. 90 of loans and dis.
counts much of which Of which
will be paid early in the season.
And this showing is strictly net,
because not a single bank shows
one cent Of rediscounts.

CALLS METHODS SLIPSHOD

Commissioner Wallstein at yesterdays
session OF the inquiry into the Coroners'
Offices. elected from Drs. Haven Emerson
and william II. Guilfoy of the Health De-
partment and DR.. James Ewing of the
Cornell medical school striking criticisms
OF tho way investigations into deaths are
conducted by the Coroners' Office. Dr.
Ewing said:,
81 should say that so far as the work
OF the Coroners' office IL concerned. as
you have detailed 1t to me, infanticide
might be carried on with lmpunity In New
York city"
He gave II as his opinion that autopsles
In about 10 per cent. of the 5.749 deaths
investigated In 1913 constituted far 100
small proportion. He said that In many
specific cases where the records show that
no eutopsles were held they were abso-
lutely necessary to settle the cause of
death. Such causes Of death" as con-
WILSON'S and acute astro-cnteritis. shown
by the records, are wholly inadequate. DR.
Owing testified. Commissions might mean
epidemic cerebro-s spinal meningitis, scarlet
fever or other dread infectious disease The
gastro-enteritis might follow arsenic or
other irrtant poisoning and indicate sui
eide or murder.
