New York, July 24.-The private

amount of money and then closed the bTanch, going away. That intensified the excitement. Schwenk appeared with $35,000 and paid them off. The next day he went down to Jamaica with $10,0OO in $1 bills and plastered them all over the windows and the safes, making such display of wealth that the depositors were re- assured and went away.
 Decides to Close Bank.
 Eugene Lamb Richards, state bank ing superintendent, ordered rC. Ar. thur Pyterman, state bank exami- ner, as a special deputy superinten- dent to assist in the liquidation of the assets. He did so because an examination showed the affairs in pelled to close it. 5..- h#
 While Pyterman took direct charge of the main office in Bedford ave- examiner, went to the East Side branch shortly before o'clock last night. He was accompanied by War ren c. Fielding, a representative of the office of J. T. Mahoney of coun- sel to the State Banking department. Prior to going to the bank they called at the Fifth street police station. where they got an escort of several policemen for use should there be much excitement among the deposi- tors. ,.

BAN ON SHIPMENT
 OF VARIOUS NoSIRUMs
Concerns Brought Into Court and
 VeTdiCts Found for Government.

Washington. D. C., July 24.-The ture has recently issued large num- Der of notices of judgment involving shipments of drug products adulter- ated or misbranded in violation of the food and drugs act.
 A shipment by the William Radam Microbe Killer Co.,, New York, N. Y., from the state of New York into the state of Minnesota, consisting of 539 boxes and 322 cartons of Radam's Microbe Killer, was alleged to be mis- branded for the reason that state- ments appearing on the labels of the packages regarding the curative and therapeutic effect of the product were false and fraudulent. This case was one of the first brought by the gov ernment under the Sherley amend ment to the food and drugs act, passed August B, 1912. The purpose of this amendment is the more ef- fectual prevention of interstate traf- ific in that class of preparations or patent medicines purporting to be "cure-alls.'' A circular accompany 
 medicine as being a remedy for prac- tically every ailment to which the human system is subject.
 In this case after jury had found for the government. the court ordered the goods destroyed by the United States marshal.
 A product called "Fernet Milano," shipped into Michigan by Pasquale Gargiulo. doing business under the name and style of P. Gargiulo & Co.,, New York, N. Y., was alleged to be misbranded. The product, offered for sale under the name of another we'll known article, Fernet Milano, was merely an imitation and the label failed to bear a statement of the quantity or proportions of alcohol contained in the article which was shown to be 33.7 per cent. by volume. The article, furthermore, was so labeled as to create the impression that it was of foreign manufacture, when as a matter of fact it was made in the United States. The defendant pleaded guilty and the court imposed a fine of $40.
 The William A. Webster Co., Memphis, Tenn, was charged Wltn the interstate shipment of quantities of adulterated and misbranded wine , of coca-leaves, acetanilid and sodium bromide compound tablets, "Anti- vomit Tablets" aspirin tablets, cold tablets, quinine tablets, salol tablets, and sodium salicylate tablets; and misbranded bsmuth and calomel compound tablets. The company pleaded guilty and the court imposed a fine of s1O, with costs of $12.95.
 Two other cases against the same company, alleged the shipment of a quantity of neuralgia pills, and di- arrhoea calomel pills, which were and misbranded in both instances The labels stated that the pills in each shipment contained re- | spectively 1-20 and 1-16 grain of | morphine sulphate, each, when as a matter of fact the morphine content was much less than represented In each case the court imposed a fine on

branch and send them away rejoicing. :. But within, a short time there were 400 or 500 Poles, Russians and Lith- uanians gathered about the bank, shedding tears and bemoaning the fact that the bank was closed. It was said that about $150,00O had been deposited at the East Side branch.
 The closing of the bank is practical ly the first under the new private banking law. By the provisions of that law every private bank having less than a certain amount of deposits must have the authorization of the state banking department to continue in business While. Schwenks bank is said to be in poor condition it is due mainly to the poor real estate market and to general business de- pression at this time. The greater Schwen1x was lent to the Schwenk Realty company or else invested in real estate enterprises.
 May Avert Serious Loss. z.
 "I have acted" said MT. Richards last night, because decided that the business of l.. w. Schwenk was not in condition to Justify the acceptance of further. deposits. I hope by an economical liquidation of the assets of this banker to prevent serious loss to his depositors."
 There was a run on Schwenk's main office in Williamsburg last Decem- ber. Somebody started the arumor that. the bank was insolvent and inn

CAPTAIN LOW A POSSIBILITY.
 Captain E. Raymond Low of Com pany E is a very likely choice for a majorship in the First Regiment, C. N. G., if an expected vacancy occurs. The retireme ent of Colonel William E. F.

MISISTERS ASK DORSEY
TO HELP GUST SALOONS

Atlanta, Feb. 4-The Evangelical
Ministers Association o. Atlanta has
entered into consultation with Solic-
itor General Hugh Dorsey, with the
idea of seeing whether a grand jury
investigation of locker club conditions
in Atlanta can be had.
The Ministers Association appealed
On Monday to city council, asking
council to refuse licenses, and council
ignored the appeal by granting licens-
es to all the locker clubs which now
operate,
The appeal to the grand jury is the
second step of the association in the
effort to close the locker clubs. In the
event the grand jury takes no action,
a third step will be made, it is re-
ported The Association will raise 4
private fund to retain counsel, and an
effort will be made to close the clubs
by injunction.
No date has been set for the next
meeting Of the grand jury, but it is
understood it will be called together
as soon as the convict camp investiga-
ton is concluded.
The Minister'S Association, the Law
Enforcement League of Atlanta and
the Men and Religion Movement are
all fighting the locker clubs, ana sig
Nifty their intention of continuing the
fight The final outcome, according 10
/ the comment of Atlanta daily news
papers today, is problematical
