Grand Island Saves
Quarter Million by :
Rebilling Freight

GRAND ISLAND. Neb.. Dec. D.-(Spe-
cial.)-The tabulation OF railroad receipts,
as published by the State Railways COM
mission. contained a surprise for this city
in the fact that the receipts here showed
an increase of from s1,1SS, $500 for 1913
to 81, ,677 for 1914. For early this year
large shippers found lower rates more
desirable than showing as to total in
come and began rebilling on certain
shipments which would throw large
part of the receipts to Omaha, Lincoln
or Fremont-Missouri river rate points.
Grand Islands shippers discovered that
on fifth-class. or commodity shipments,
the rate to Omaha from eastern points
was q cents and from Omaha Cor Lin:
coin Or FremontD to Grand Island 1873
cents, a total of 45.s cents. They fought
long for the elimination Of the discrim-
inatlon against through shipments with
out avail. The through rate from the
same eastern points on the same ship
ments was SO cents Therefore. they ar
ranged for billing to Omaha (or Lin
coin or FremonD and rebilling to this
point saving IL cents per 100 pounds.
A similar saving on first-class goods
amounts to 9 cents.
1t is estimated that. since such rebilline
has been undertaken. 100000 in freight
has been paid at these Missouri river
points, most OF which, however. will be
shown in the next years tabulation, 'hav'

LINCOLN, Dec. 19.-Cspecial THE
paper that the Bank of Bancroft, at
Bancroft, Neb., had failed is causing the
State Banking Board and its secretary
considerable trouble as letters are com
ing lin to Secretary Royse. asking for in
formation regarding the failure and
others protesting against the publicity.
The fact ls that the bank failing Is not
situated in Bancroft, Neb., but In Ban
crot, s. D., and in connection with the
matter Secretary Ryse wants II under
stood that the state banks of Nebraska
are not In the habit of failing.
But two state banks have failed in thfs
state during the last ten years. One OF
these was the Citizens bank of Firth,
which closed it's doors March rs, 1907, and
its depositors wer paid s36 per cent on
their deposits. The second was the First
State bank of Superior. which closed last
March and depositors received the full
amount of their deposits, the guaranty
fund being called upon to satisfy the
deposltors without waiting for the settle
ment OF the banks affairs. It Is probable
that the guaranty fund will be reimbursed
in fun when the affairs ot-the bank arc
cleaned up.
In comparison with Nebraska banks II
is shown that fifteen state banks have
'clUsed in South Dakota during the last
ten years and deposltors have not been
nearly as fortunate in receiving the
amount Of their deposits. The records
show that the capital stock OF thesy
banks totaled $l79O75; surplus ana profits
