Des Moines. Sept. 1.-THE banks OF
Des Moines in the period between the
last call for statement by the audi
tor of state and the previous call two
months lost nearly a million dollars OF
their deposits which they had gained
in the previous period. They had in
fact gained million and half between
the two other calls, so, that the loss
in July and August was really only
partially getting back to the status of
early spring.

They had on June 80 last $40, 49,
531.O4.
This includes sixteen of the seven
teen banks and trust companies, the
other one being a small enc not Yet
reported, having about 100000 de-
posts.
If tn loss of 1851, O11.29 in the two
months is any criterion for the whole
state. and usually it has been such,
then the loss in deposits for the entire
state will be a considerable amount.
but probably not enough to offset the
gain made In the preceding few
months. Because of the demands from
Chicago and the east on The banks of
Des .Moines it is probable the proper
tionate loss here is greater than in
the state as. whole. On the other
hand there may he included in the
present deposit accounts some of the
money sent west to move crops" as
the fiction department of The currency
bureau has it. This has served no
purpose other than to keep up the APP
pearance of steady deposits.
Only two of the Des Moines banks
under state laws showed an actual
gain in aggregate of deposits, the
losses being general With all the de-
positories.
With Theodore Roosevelt only q
week away the progressive political
party leaders are somewhat perturbed
over the desertion of their cause by
their state organ. Last winter when
the emissaries from Wall street were
securing the state organizing against
Cummins" and to make the bull moose
party the big thing in the state. the
managers felt 1t to be a cold day they
could not get scare heal and col
umn article in their state organ. Now
the coming Of Roosevelt is relocated to
headless story on an irside page.
But worse than that his coming is de-
nounced editorially as tactical blum
der and while. he wil.be heard. this
is declared to be the situation:
But the third party movement is
not needed in Iowa to accomplish
what all are aiming at. BY stimulating
the zeal and firing the enthusiasm Of
his followers the colonel will only con-
tribute. to division of the forces of
progress
All of which is quite different from
a situation wherein Casper Schenk
diatribe was an every day occurrence.
Fhe third party leaders find them
selves for the first time without any
special avenue of publicity and realize
they have suffered a great loss.

MITCHELL'S SILENCE POLICY
New Mayor of New York Cautions
Heads of Departments Re-
garding Actions.

New York, Jan. "a policy of ST.
lence among department heads re
garding their administration OF
branches of city government during
their first few months in Office was
suggested to his appointees by John
Purroy Mitchell upon his inauguration
as mayor
1--WE will develop our program SLOW
ly," Mr.. Mitchell announced, in the
presence Of some of his cabinet, the
retiring mayor and others who gather
ed at the city hall to see the new eX.
ecutive take office.
1T will not be necessary to go to
the people of the city every day to
tell them what we propose to do. 1t
will be better for us to wait little
while and then go to them and tell
them what we are doing and have
DONE"
Mayor Mitchell urged teamwork .
among the department heads and
promised the fulfillment of campaign
pledges given by the fusion party
which elected him to office.

BUSINESS SECTION BURNED
Fire Department of Alberta Town I'm
able to Save Frame Buildings
in High Wind.

Calgary, Alta, Jan. EVERY bust
ness establishment in the town of
Didsbury was destroyed by fire which
ragged fiercely for three hours. No
residences were burned and much of
the contents of the stores was saved.
No one was injured.
The fire had it's origin in the Bijou
theater, moving picture house, and
had gained considerable Roadway
when discovered and, despite the eff
forts of the volunteer fire department,
with fairly good equipment, famed
by strong wind, spread rapidly among
the buildings Of the business section,
most of which were frame structures.
The loss is estimated at $250,0O0
though insurance on the property de-
stroyed will approximate about IS per
cent of the total loss.

TRIP OF BANK COMMITTEE
FEDERAL REPRESENTATIVES, TO
HAVE STEEL CAR OF LAT

Will Take Testimony in Twelve West
ern Cities in Office on Wheels
During 10000 Mile
Journey.

Washington, Jan. 3. - Although
plans for the long western trip of tho
reserve bank organization committee
have not been completed, some OF the
preliminary steps taken indicate that
the undertaking will be unique in the
history of the government. The com
mittee expects to have an office on
wheels for more than month and to
insure the safety Of it's records and
documents on the 10,000-mile journey,
a steel car of the latest type has been
secured.
Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo
and Secretary OF Agriculture Houston.
of the committee, will live aboard this
car most of the time for the month,
will go over the testimony taken in
the twelve western cities they are to
visit and keep up with the mass OF
correspondence that will be forwarded
to them from Washington.
Each society will take his own pri4
vate secretary with him and besides
there will be stenographers, messen.
gers and possibly lawyer from the
treasury department. The currency
law put 100000 at the disposal of Che
committee in reaching a determine
ton of the boundary lines of reserve
districts and in locating reserve cit.
les. BY making use of special car
the committee expects to make the
trip much more cheaply than IL it
were compelled to use the ordinary
means of travel. Moreover, the secre-
taries want to have at their disposal
an office" where they can retire and
avoid persistent boosters, urging the
claims of their cities for reserve
banks.
The plans contemplate the keeping
of the records of the public hearings
in the twelve cities up to the minute.
When Washington is reached on the
return trip it is hoped the records will
be in such shape that ala the testi.
mony can be laid before the federal
reserve board at once, if that body
has been organized by the president

Morgan Makes Statement.

J. p. Morgan made this statement:
"The necessity of attending many
board meetings has been so serious a
burden upon our time that we have
long wished to withdraw from the di-
rectorates of many corporations. Most
of these directorships we have ac-
cepted with reluctance and only be-
cause we felt constrained to keep in
touch with properties which we had
reorganized or whose securities we
had recommended to the public, both
here and abroad.
can apparent change in public senti-
ment in regard to directorships APP
pears now to warrant us in seeking to
resign from some Of these connections.
Indeed it may be, in view Of the
change in sentiment upon the subject,
that we shall be in a better position
to serve such properties and their
security holders if we are not di-
rectors. We have already resigned
from the companies mentioned, and
we expect from time to time to with
draw from other boards upon which
we feel there is no special obligation
TO remain"
