 The hearing has been transferred to Boston, where the bankers of the 'bean city" will argue for the es- tablishment of the bank in that city.
 The large banks have failed to in 1icate their intentions regarding the surrendering of their federal charters, under which they. operate, and the taking out of state charters in their place. It is expected they will await development before taking any action. It is also believed, even by the friends of the new currency bill, that some will surrender their national charters. ':'
