the most popular financial institutions
in the city. It's capital was S1,00O,O00

Under Lorimer's direction the bank
was denationalized in October 1912.
Constant clashes with the federal bank
inspectors has been assigned as the
cause for the standardization. 1t be-
came a state bank with capital stock
of $1,250.00O Immediately there was
organized as subsidiaries to the cen
trail institution five banks carrying
small accounts.

the border near Nogales, Arizona, for
many months has been ordered to
Honolulu are not credited by army

and it is not probable that the regi-
ment will be moved here until more
barrack room is provided.
San Diego papers first published the
report that the 18th was coming here.
The rumor probably grew out of the
general knowledge that 5000 troops
are to be sent here as soon as possible
