Philadelphia, Aug. 12.-More than $156,OOO daily is being gouged from the American people by bold corner in the sugar market, which is alleged to have been effected by a syndicate backed by Czarnikow Rionde & com- pany of New York.

 Evidence of the alleged manipula- tions today became so fragrant that a number of leading sugar refiners made an effort to lay the facts before the interstate trade board in Wash ington. The members of the board are in California, and could not be reached.
 It is charged that the Czarnikow Rionde & company, of which Manuel Blonde is the head, began two weeks ago to buy up the products of the weaker planters in Cuba.

With the compliance with all clauses of the United States laws governing the organization of q na- tional bank, which included the de- posit in the Simmons National bank of Pine Bluff of $55,OOO in cash, rep resenting half of the capital and sur plus of the National Bank of Arkan- sas. directors of the institution yes terday elected three of the. officials, as enumerated at the head of this article.
 Few men"a are better known in this section, possess stronger business connections or enjoy greater respect for financial ability, caution and consciousness in handling the funds of others than President Trip let, First Vice President .Clem ent and Second Vice President Bringman. The standing of the other directors. is considered such as to instill the opin- ion that this is one of the strongest bank directorates in the country. Other members of the directorate are: R. Carna'han, H. H. Stearns, c. H. Triplett, Jr.. J. A. Perdue, J. H. Hudson and Charles Haycock
 Open Monday, Aug. B.
 It is confidently expected that the new national bank will open for busi ness on August 23. in the banking house formerly used by the Bank oi Pine Bluff
 A most gratifying circumstance connected with the organization is That the expense amounted to only $55.G7, being the expense incurred by representative of the national banking department on trip of in vestigation here in June. It is con- sidered doubtful that any other bank was organized at such little expense, o~ any other $110,000 corporation, for that matter. This was accomplished tn rough the organizers bearing all cost out of personal funds.
 All required documents were for warded to Washington yesterday, and the charter is expected to reach here within few days. Under the federal banking laws, an institution is per- mitted to begin business with the ap- proval of the comptroller upon show ing that half of the capital and Sur plus has been deposited to the credit of the new bank. A certificat,a from Cashier Jo Nichol of the Simmons National bank testified to this. The remainder of the capital can be paid in five, monthly installnents of 10 per cent of thu balance. The fed eral laws also holds each stockholder liable to twice the amount of his stock.
