CONFIDENCE KEPT UP AMONG
BANKS IN WAY COMMISSION
ERs COVER DISTRICTS.
ROUNDS OF STATE COMPLETE
System Of inspection Enables the ES-
aminers To Keep In Touch With
Methods Employed BY Banks
over the State.

The members OF the state bank ex.
smining board have been in session at
the capitol for their statutory semi
annual and quarterly meeting, as re-
qulred under the act of 1914 creating
this important department.
The members OF the board reported
having completed the rounds OF the
state banks in the districts covered,
as required during first six months.
BY the end OF the present calendar
year each OF the examining board will
have covered the banks in his own dis.
trict for the third time. while each
has covered once the banks in the
districts of his colleagues. BY this
method they are enabled TO get in
close touch with the banking busi-
ness as conducted in every county
and community in the state which
boasts of such institutions. and as
the same time the work of inspection
has been carried on in such way as
to inspire confidence in this system
of official espionage, both among the
banks and the people who transact
business with and through them.

HOTEL RAIDS RESULT IN THE
ARREST OF A HUNDRED
About a hundred men and women
were arrested in early Sunday morn
ing raids on three hotels. The fate
of several police captains who were
bounced out of their jobs recently is
credited for the renewed interest Of
the police in vice.
The notorious Cadillac hotel at
22d and Wabash was visited; the
Leidy at 1855 W. Madison and the
Decatur, a few doors west, were the
others.
Lieut.. Hartford, who conducted
the West Side raids, said the girls
taken were mostly of the working
class and of the department store
type.
In morals court today the Cadillac
cases were continued until Nov. q.
The six women and seven men ar
rested in the Richelieu hotel, 25O5
Michigan aV., were granted jury tri-
ais to be held before Judge Trude.
The Decatur cases also asked for
transfer to another court for jury
trial.
Morals court and its corridors were
so jammed with the morbidly curious
that guards had to be put on the
doors to keep spectators from over
crowding the courtroom.

III Feeling Against
Americans Increased
By Duran Execution

Ell PASO, Jan. 24.-IIl feeling against
Americans in Mexico was increased by
the execution of two Juarez Mexicans
yesterday for the murder of Bert Akers,
q rancher.
Bernardo and FREDERICK Duran, who
died with a curse on their lips for
Americans. had many friends in Juarez.
Their execution by q firing squad for
the killing of Akers last Friday was
one OF the most gruesome incidents
OF the Mexican trouble seen near I'll
paso.
The captain of the firing squad, VINO
embraced them n moment before the
execution. put his revolver to their
heads and gave each of the brothers
the mercy shot," the rifiemens bullets
having failed to bring instant death.
About fifty Americans, including sew
eral women, witnessed the execution
and heard the Durans hurl vile oatns
at the Americans.
FREDERICK, the elder Duran. died pro-
testing his brothers innocence and de-
claring against the forfeiting of two
Mexican lives for one American.
I'VE are dying for the cause of Mex
leo against Americans" shouted Fred
erico just before the firing squad car
ried out the Carranzista orders.

WANTS PRESIDENT
TO CONTROL MILITIA
Congressman Dyer Offers Macs
ure to Amend Constitution
for This Purpose.

A national defense measure designed
to give the President control of the
militia of the country was introduced
in the House today by Congt essman =.
L. Dyer of Missouri, one of the few
House members who served in the Span
war. An amendment to
the Constitution is necessary for this
purpose.
The Dyer resolution provides that the
President shall be the cCrimander-jn-
chief Of the army, the navy, and tic
militia"
Under existing law the activities OF
the state militia are confined to serv-
ice within their respective States, except
in cases where miiitiamcn volunteer to
Join the national colors upon call for
volunteers. If the Dyer resolution
should be approved by congress and
ratified by the States. TIM President
would be given authority to order the
militia into the service. Just rs he would
order the regular army.
The Dyer resolution Is regarded as the
forcrunner OF Legislation now being dis
cussed at the Capitol to extend liberal
Federal aid in the upbuildinS of the
State militia. A militia pay bin has
found support M a substitute for the
Garrison continental army plan.
