rushed for blocks to reach the bank
ing institutions, shop girls, bootblacks
Mechanics, and varied other small
depositors, availed themselves of the
opportunity.
While the bank is in no way embar-
assed by the run of the small depos-
ltors, every other bank in the city
rendered assistance, and the bankers
mingled with the crowd to assure the
trenzied depositors that there was no
chance for them to lose their money.
j. d. Goldman, the ST. Louis cotton
financier, who is the president of the
institution, was communicated with.
and stated that he would Immediately
start $1,000,000 in cash from St. Louis
banks, to assure all depositors their
money if they wanted it. He stated
that $5,000,000 would be forthcoming
if needed. The first shipment arrived
Tuesday morning.
At the same time the frightened
small depositors were clamoring for
their savings, many merchants of the
city were patronizing the receiving
window, depositing thousands of dol
lars, thus showing their faith in the
institution. Several times as much
was deposited as was paid out, though
there was little fuss about it. One
depositor, evidently desiring to assist
the bankers, drew $4,000 in cash
from another local bank with which
he does business, to place it with the
German National.

IS AUTHORIZED TO EX-
ANIME UNDER OATH
Attorney General Advises Bank Com
missioner With Reference to His
Authority to Administer Oath
When Examining Banks

Attorney Gen. w. L. Moose has ad-
wise Bank Commissioner John M.
Davis with reference to his authority
to administer oaths when examining
banks in the state:
Il do not find any express state
ment in the act creating the state
bank department empowering the
commissioner to administer oaths. but
| think it is clearly implied in Sec
ton AZ of said act, which states that
the Commissioner is authorized to
examine under oath, any proprietor,
officer, agent, or clerk or other person
touching matters he is authorized to
examine into, and to summon and by
attachment compel the attendance of
any person in this state to testify
under oath before him in relation to
the affairs of such bank SO it is
my opinion that you have the lawful
right to administer oaths to persons,
in the official discharge of your duties
as Bank Commissioner, and the right
thus conferred upon you belongs also
to your assistants"
In another opinion touching upon
the authority of the Bank Commits
sioner he says;
"Act 113, approved March Is, 1913,
creating the State Bank Department
seems to cover the whole business of
the creation and operation of banks.
Our Supreme Court has held that
where a subsequent act covers the
whole subject on which it legislates,
it repels all former laws on the same
subject. Inasmuch as the banking
act requires a bank to file two or more
statements every year, with the State
Bank Commissioner, and covers the
whole subject of banking, it seems to
me that the law as contained in Sec
tion S4S of Kirby's Digest is repealed
so far as banking corporations are
concerned. Of course it is still in
force as to all other corporations.

liquor dealer, filed an appeal in Su-
preme Court in four cases Monday.
He had been convicted in police court,

of $3.50 had been reduced to $3.50. He
was convicted of two counts on Oct.
16, being fined 5000 in the first and
$50 in the second. On appeal to cir
cult court, the first was reduced by a
jury to $50, and the second increased
to $50. On Oct. II he was fined $500,
which was reduced to $3.50. Oct. 1S
he was fined 5000, which was not

RIM MADE ON THE
GERMAN NATIONAL
Strongest Financial Institution in
State Pays Steady Stream of De-
positors for Past Forty Eight
Homs-Plenty of Funds

Little Rock, Jan. PA run started
on the German National Bank, the
strongest financial institution in Ar
kansas. Monday just before noon, and
as the hours passed the crowd of
eager depositors grew until line ex-
tended into the street The force of
tellers was increased from two to six
before the bank closed its doors at
midnight. Payment was resumed this
morning and will continue as long as
depositors demand their money. 1t
was estimated that $4,000 had been
paid out during the first day run.
How the run started is a mystery,
but the rumor that it started in Ar
genta is given most credance. The
bank officials are making an effort
to locate the guilty party, and if
found he will be punished as severely
as the state laws will permit. Ac-
cording to report, boilermaker in

is alleged to have gone to the Argenta
shops and remarked that he had been
to the German National Bank for
money and it was unable to pay him.
Argenta has had two bank failures
recently and the remark of the boiler
maker was passed from lip to lip un-
til in a short time stream of human
ity was headed for the bank.
As soon as it was evident that a run
was on, the bank officials added to the
clerical force, and invited depositors
in to get their money. They stated
that there was plenty of cash on hand
to pay all who desired it, and hund-
reds of red faced women, who has

SAND CLAY ROADS AND
THE TINE TO WORK THEM

Washington, d. c., Jan. 21.-There
are at rpesent about $4,000 miles of
sand clay roads in the United States,
mainly in the Southern States, accord
ing to the Office of Public Roads, u. S.
Department of Agriculture. The time
to work the roads is in the spring
when the soil is damp. If the work
ing of the roads is deferred until late
in the summer when they are dry, they
are not only much more difficult to
put in proper shape but the cost of
repair is greater than if they were
worked in the spring.
Previous to 1894 comparatively lit
tie, if any, of these roads existed.
The popularity of this type of road
is due to the facts that it is cheap,
comparatively firm and durable, easy
to construct and repair, and that the
materials out of which it is built are
plentiful in many sections of the
country.
The sand-clay road is made by mix
ing the sand and clay in such a way
that the grains of sand touch each
other, the spaces between the grains
being filled with clay which acts as
binder.
The approximate mixture of sand
and clay may be determined by fill
ing a vessel with sample of the
sand to be used and another vessel
of the same size with water. The
water is poured carefully into the
sand until it reaches the point of over
flowing. The volume of water re-
moved from the second vessel repre-
sents approximately the proportion of
clay needed.
The proper proportion of sand and
clay can best be determined, however,
as the work progresses, as some clay
will contain more sand than others.
in fact, clays are very frequently
found which already contain about the
right proportion of sand.
If the road to be treated is sandy,
the surface is first leveled off and
crowned with a road machine, the
crown being about Y inch to the foot
from the center I'd the sides. The
clay is then dumped on the surface
and carefully spread, so that it will
be from 6 to inches m depth at the
center, and gradually decreasing in
depth towards the sides. A layer of
which is thoroughly mixed with the
clay. either by traffic or by means of
plows and disk or tooth harrows.
The best results have been obtained
by thoroughly mixing or pudding
the materials when wet For this
reason, it is desirable that the mixing
be done in wet weather The mix
ing can be left to the traffic after the
materials have been properly placed,
but this involves a whole winter and
spring of bad road, and even then the
mixing is not always satisfactory In
all cases, it is advisable to dress the
road with road machine of splitlog
drag after the materials have been
thoroughly mixed, and to give it
crown of not more than / inch or less

than q inch to the foot from the
center to the sides A light coating
of sand may then be added. The use
of the road machine or drag should
be continued at frequent intervals
until the surface is smooth and firm.
If the road to be treated is COM
posed of clay, it should first be
brought to a rough grade with road
machine. The surface should then be
plowed and thoroughly pulverized by
narrowing to depth of about 4 in
ches after which it is given a crown
or slope of about e inch to the foot
from the center to the sides. 1t is
then covered with to inches of
clean, sharp sand, which is spread
thicker in the center than at the sides.
The materials should then be mixed
with plows and harrows while they
are comparatively dry, after which
they are finally puddled with a harrow
during wet weather. If clay works
to the surface and the road becomes
sticky, more sand should be added.
The road is then shaped, crowed.
and ditched in the usual manner with
a road machine. This should be done
when the surface is soft, vet stiff
enough to pack well under the roller
or the traffic. Wide but shallow ditch
es should be provided on both sides
of the road, and culverts or cross
drains should be placed wherever
water flows across the road for it is
exceedingly important that the sand
ON clay roads be we'll drained.
After the clay on sand, or the sand
on alley, road is completed, it should
be carefully maintained until the sur
face becomes firm and smooth. The
construction of this type of road is
by no means a quick operation. If
soft, sticky places appear, more sand
should be added, and if loose, sandy
places are found, more clay is needed.
1t is just as important to attend to
these small details as to any Other
part Of the work, for, if they are ne
elected, the road is liable to fail.
1t requires approximately l cubic
yard of clay to surface IL running
yards of road II feet in width, or
about 1175 cubic yards to the mile.
From q to l cubic yard will make
load for two horses on a dry clay road
The cost of the road will therefore
depend largely upon the distance the
material is hauled, the average being
from $500 to $1,000 per mile A road
built under the direction of the Office
of Public Roads at GAINESVILLE, Florida
one mile long, IA feet wide, and hav-
ing 9 inches of sand-clay surface,
cost 1891 per mile, or ten cents per
square yard. Another sand-clay road
built by the Office at Tallahassee, Flo
rida, 16 feet wide, 7 inches thick, cost
$40 per mile, or about five cents per
square yard
