BANKING COMMISSIONER SMITH
FILES AN AMENDED SUIT.

In a petition alleging that the sum
of $33,64O.37 was illegally taken from
the George Alexander & Co. Bank, of
Paris, which failed last May, Banking
Commissioner Thomas j. Smith filed
suit at Cincinnati, Saturday, against
the Fifth-Third National Bank, of Gin
cinnati, for the recovering OF that
sum. Commissioner Smith is engaged
in winding up the affairs of the de-
funct bank.
By it's charter the Alexander bank
was prohibited from borrowing in eX-
cess of $4,000 above it's total liza.
bilities. The Fifth-Third, after adj
vancing it $4,000 last January, made
further loans to it in March and May,
the amount of these being $4,000.
To secure these loans the Alexander
bank put up $4,000 as collateral Sc
curity in notes out q which the Fifth
Third has made collections and REIN
bursed itself for the amount Of the
three loans and also for an overdraft
of $500, which was due to it from
the Alexander bank. The EsMaindeE
Of the collateral was fetdTfhed
IL is claimed the Fifth-Third was
aware of the fact that the Alexander
banks borrowing capacity was limit
ed to the $4,000 and therefore had
no right to accept the two later notes
for $4,000 nor to apply the collateral
to paying them or the oVerdrafts anu
that the proceeding in these partlcu.
lars were ultra wires. Demands on
the defendant bank for the return OF
the money has been refused.

a VALUABLE DEVICE.

The Maysyille Public Ledger says:
while visiting the Fire Chief
Convention in New Orleans, Chief
Hite observed a device which was
invented by Chief Bunker, Of New
York, for the purpose of aiding firemen
to throw a rope to my certain point
from a burning building. Chief Hite
lost no time in having one Of these
simple but very valuable articles plac-
ed on the Kinney Mac, and it may be
at any day the means Of saving one
or more lives should anyone happen

THE Chief is very enthusiastic
about his experiences at the great
convention, and says he learned many
useful ideas from this large body Of
the worlds best fire-fghters.'
