]. E. Robinson and other members of
the court, which had their climax
when Justice Robinson commended that
the chief justice was making an un-
true statement with respect to Robins
son having made decisions even before
arguments we're made, was one of the
most novel incidents during the hear
ing, but there were others.
You make a mistake in arguing
this case on technicalities," Judge
Robinson assured Francis j. Murphy,
attorney for the original defendants.
Your honor" replied Mr.. Murphy,
IT have made mistakes before and
probably will make them again, and
I pray your permission to make them
in my own way, without advice from
your honor"

question as to whether three members
Of the court which denied this re-
hearing last December were disquali-
fed"
"That," said Robinson. as minor
matter. If this court stands for any
thing at all, it will try the case on
its merits" ...,-. a-' 4
4 Murphy then argued that the court
had no jurisdiction upon which to try
the case upon its merits as the case
rests in the Ward district court.
This court, your honors, has only
such powers as conferred by law. do
not understand that this court may
take unto itself such special privi-
leges as 1t may see fit for special oc-
casions. do not believe that this
court intends to hold itself above all
law and unanswerable to any law"
Before the opening of the argument
on the petition for a re-hearing, Asso-
ciate Justice Robinson in general
terms expressed his opinion OF the
case. The chief justice suggested that
opinions should not be- formed until
the arguments had been heard.

KING ALBERT
THANKS AMERICA

Boston, Jan. 1s.--The thanks OF
King Albert of Belgium for the ex-
preston OF sympathy for his country
which was embodied In a recently
published paper known as the "ad-
dress to the people of the allied ma
tions" signed by Ave hundred Ameri-
can citizens is contained in a letter
made public from Count +. DeJehay,
chief OF the kings cabinet, to DR.
Morton Prince of this city. one Of the
5Belgium.' Count Jehay wrote,
''owes much to- America Since the
beginning of this frightful war, the
.nited States of America have taken
an interest in a people cruelty tried
for having done only what Is believed
to be its duty. The Beigians know
that without the inexhaustible, we'll
planned and efficient American gem
crosby, their lot. already so terrible
would have been still more unhappy
But the solicitude of your noble
country was not confined to material
help. Lovers of equity and justice
the citizens of free America have
wished to proclaim the Judgment die
tated by their conscience, to affirm
that the cause OF Belgium was the
cause OF right and civilization.
This impartial and disinterested
testimony is the most precious and
the most comforting tribute which
the Belgians could desire. And thiG
tribute could not besexpressed in bet
ter terms than those of such convinc-
ing moderation employed in the 'ad-
dress to the people OF the allied ma
tons
II am instructed to request you to
be the bearer of his majesty's sim

the address, assuring them of the
value which the king attaches to a
manifesto of such grtat moral and in-
teIlectual weight"

MEXICO CITY. March 17.-In answer
10 the communication of the United
states to the Mexican note, which pro-
posed that the neutral nations unite in
an effort TO bring about peace in Eu-
rope. or. ns an alternative, place an
embargo on shipments to belIigerent
countries. the Mexican government is
sued tonight through the foreign Office
IN absolute declaration of neutrality,
asserting in definite terms that II is the
of Mexico to devote its

The Mexican statement also sets forth

CHICAGO GRAIN.

CHICAGO. March 17.-Notwithstand-
ing that the railway labor crisis led to
much nervousness and irregularity in
the wheat market today, prices in the
late dealings showed considerable
strength. owing largely to assertions
that the government was preparing
measures to prevent cessation of traffic
even if the Presidents appeal to the
contending forces to get together fail
ed. The close was unsettled. ranging
from l decline to as advance. with May
at 1,s4 to l.s4h. and July at 1.54H to
1.55s. Corn finished u off to Il up,
oats down u to y. and provisions at
gains of 7 y to 80.
Uncertainty over the strike situation
made the wheat market average mod
eIately lower during the first hour,
ly with the bulls. May in particular
displayed a tendency to harden. where
as the September delivery remained
comparatively weak throughout the
session. Offerings of May wheat were
notably scarce and there was some
good buying of this option. with the
demand coming to great extent from
houses that often act for seaboard in
terests. Other factors than the railway
strike received but little notice and
meanwhile freight embargoes already
in effect to anticipate a walkout of
employees had a decided influence to-
ward restricting new speculative VEN
lures pending conclusive developments
as to the outcome of mediators' efforts
at New York.
Undoing of spreads caused May
wheat to lose part of its advance as
the market approached an end. For the
same reason July regained all of an
early loss. Selling of new crop de-
liveries. specially September. was led
by concerns identified with the south
west.
Corn and oats were almost devoid of
feature. Pit operators were inclined
to be bearish, but were restrained by
the comparative flrmness of wheat. In
ability to get cars switched kept ship
pers at standstill.
Scarcity of offerings gave an up
ward slant to provisions. Aloofness of
packers In the hog market operated,
however. as a drag on quotations in
the late dealings.

FINANCE LOCAL AND OTHERWISE.
BY I. A. FLEMING,

One of the questions asked Of banks
by the controller of the currency in his
latest call for a statement of condi-
ton related to dormant accounts to
which no deposits had been added 9TH
banks. and from which no Withdrawals
have been made. The controller desires
to know the amount of such dormant
accounts, dating the inquiry from jan
uary l, 1912-a five-year period.
Bankers are very much interested in
the purpose for which this information
is sought. Some time ago an effort was
made to secure the passage of needed
legislation for the turning over of dor
mant accounts in the banks of Wash
ington to the District of Columbia,
claimants to have tho right to sue for
the return of any moneys to which they
laid claim.
While the individual dormant ac-
count is not an important matter. the
aggregate of dormant accounts in the
banks of Washington will be very
of the leading bankers at close to
$500, 900.
One Of the oldest national banks has
nearly 1000 such accounts: another
the trust companies is said to have not
far from $150.000 Of this dormant
money.
Average dormant deposits run from
few cents to many dollars. one
cashier placing the average at -. al
though this was probably a little high.
Many of these accounts clutter ledgers.
and bankers would be glad to close
them out: many more are accounts TO
the credit of people whom the bank
officials know. money that the owners
know is on deposit to their credit ana
which would be quietly drawn out
were any order or rather law passed for
their Sequestration.
entitled to retain the dormant funds,
provided there is no way of locating
ownership. but they admit that their
title would be clouded and that the
custom in the various states Is for
the state to take over the money after
a period Of years,
Bankers hold that twenty-year
period before yielding title would be
ample. after proper advertising OF ac-
counts and intent to turn 1T over to
the District.
Frequently dormant accounts are dis
closed following the settlement of an
estate, and much of the money of this
character in banks belongs to estates.
1t is suggested that the controller of
the currency is collecting the informa-
ton for the purpose of keeping the
chairman of the District committee In
the House informed on the matter. and
that the information may be used in
aiding the enactment of a law for Its
transfer to the District or 20 the gov
ernment.
One bank official made the suggestion
that it was within the possibilities that
the controller of the currency was
thinking of advancing a law transfer
ing the funds to the Treasury Depart
ment, and added:
ITS mighty hard to get money out
of the government. We have stamp
tax refund credits due US that have re-
mained unpaid for months at a time.
No business house could do business
that way"
