ADOPT SAFETY MEASURES
Banks of This State Follow Lead Of
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 bust
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, 000y 900
which the banks can obtain.
Until this $5OO,O0O,OO0 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
balance as usual But no shipments
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
deposition 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
tees for sums exceeding $1,000, which
is constantly existing legal right to
which the savings banks and savings
departments will now have recourse.

Hearsay evidence, interspersed at
times by bitter and insinuative po-
litical and personal remarks, featur-
ed the first session of the legislative
committee appointed to investigate
certain charges made in connection
with the affairs of the State Hospital
for the Insane, which was held yes
terday in the supreme court room.
Three witnesses-the governor of
South Carolina; B. r. Tillman, Unit
ed States senator, and J. w. Babcock.
NJ. d., superintendent of the State
Hospital for the Insane-gave testi-
mony at the session, which lasted
four hours. At 2 o'clock the commit
tee adjourned, to meet again Monday
afternoon at o'clock, when the tax
ng of testimony will be resumed.
Members of the committee are: T.
j. Mauldin of Pickens, T. J. Strait of
Lancaster and Macbeth Young of
Union, for the senate; j. A. Hunter
of Bamberg, w. F. Stevenson of
Chesterfield and N. w. Hardip of
Cherokee, for the house of reprNySgs
tatives. Mr.. Hardin was named as a
member of the committee to take the
place of c. c. Wyche of Spartanburg,
who was excused because of the ill
ness of his father.
The investigation was brought
about as a result of a message sent
tc the general assembly by the gov
lernor, which contained a letter from
Senator Tillman. In his letter the
senator charged that the governor
and his "underlings and satellites"
were trying to manipulate the sale OF
the property of the State Hospital
for the Insane in Columbia and that
an effort was being made to GUST Dr.
Babcock and his assistant, DR.. L. B.

tients at the hospital

Testifying before the committee,
DR.. Babcock said that he had heard
Of scheme proposed by the COVER
nor whereby the new building at
State Park was to be used for a tu
berculosis hospital, the old asylum
plant in the city to be used for white
patients and the State penitentiary
to be converted into an asylum for
negro patients. The governor stated
in this connection that he had such a
plan in mind and that the peniten-
tiary would be ready for occupancy
by August of this year. He declared
that he would heed the petition of
members of the general assembly
and OF the county supervisors to
pace the convicts on the roads of
the State. He said that more than

EnoIIsh Coal Fields.

The coal fields of Northumberland
and Durham counties claim to be the
oldest in production of any coal fields
in England. 1t is a historical fact
that these fields have been worked for
at least 700 years. Every kind of
coal, with the exception of anthracite,
Is found In these two counties. North
CUMBERLAND coal is best known for its
steam-producing qualities, but 1t is
also used in the homes and In manu-
featuring plants. Durham coal is
used for the same purpose, but it is
better known for its gas and coke pro-
ducing qualities. 1t is estimated that
one-tenth of the population OF Durham
county is connected, In some capacity,
with that industry. and that the
county's output Of coal in 1919 was
valued at the pits mouth at 100000
900.
