Ordered to Clear
Navy Murder.

ANNAPOLIS, Md, Jan. ia gen
eral roundup of all suspicious char
acters in the vicinity of Annapolis
will be undertaken tomorrow in an
effort to secure clues to the muir
der Friday night of Harriet NJ. Kav-
anaugh, Naval Hospital nurse
After almost forty eight hours of
&C ontinuous inquiry the mystery re-
mains as deep as ever. The only
tang .ble basis on which police and
naval college Investigators can
work thus far are footprints of big.
heavily shod feet under the large
oak tree near where the dying girl
was found.
Reports came in today of a rough
ly dressed, hatless man seen on
the county bridge spanning College
Creek Friday night. Two young
men returning from a walk about
$50 o'clock saw him acting queerly
near the bridge. He appeared to
watch them suspiCiously as they
crossed the structure. according to
their story.
Burial In Naval Cemetery.
Miss Kavanaugh's body will be
buried in the Naval Cemetery here
tomorrow morning. This is in ac-
cordanCe with the wishes of DR..
E. NJ. Cooley. EuffalO, N. Y, cousin
of the dead woman. and her near
est relative in this country.
The funeral will be from St.
Mary's Roman Catholic church at Q
a. m. Military honOrs will be ac-
corded
Miss Kavanaugh was 35 years old.
She was described as being small,
with blonde hair and blue eyes. She
was born in Ireland and came to the
United States as a child. She first
made her home with relatives in
Buffalo.
She was appointed first to naval
service on March 5. 1915, and has
the longest record of service of any
nurse in the Navy. In July. 1915, she
was transferred from the naval hos
pital at Annapolis to the hospital at
Chelsea. Mass. From there she was
sent to the naval hospital at Brook
lyn. n. Y. and in July, 1919, was
returned to Annapolis, where she
has been stationed ever since.
The service Of Miss Kavanaugh
during the influenza epidemic of a
year ago, when the staff of the
hospital was taxed to the utmost by
the large number of cases, is CRATE
fully remembered by many a
MILDLY" at the academy.
A tribute of the highest respect to
her services and personal character
was said today
Academy Employees GrilIed.
The naval court of inquiry. COM
posed of Comdr. E. w. Washburn,
Comdr. Randall Jacobs and Lieut..
Comdr. Henry w Shields, has ex-
amined scores of Naval Academy
employees and negroes who live in
town, but so far have uncovered. no
evidence that justifies any arrest.
There are many theories as to the
motive for the crime. The most
generally accepted one is that Grim
.inal assault was contemplated. and
that it was thwarted. Capt. T. w.
Richards, superintendent of the
Naval Hospital. and other naval
surgeons who treated Miss Kava-
naugh after she was brought to the
hospital. again stated positively that
If criminal assault was the purpose
of her assailant, it was not accom-
Iplished. "

BRAND Creates His 7th
Government for French
Republic.

PARIS, Jan. 16.-For the seventh
time in his career, Aristide BRAND
has formed u cabinet for France.
The announcement was made to-
night that the cabinet would be
completed and would be presented
to the chamber OF deputies Tuesday.
Bespeaking early troubles for the
new government is the action OF
former President Poincare. who to-
day fuong down the gauntlet to
the new premier in a reparations
statement in which he declared that
France will never be satisfied with
anything other than a strct inter
probation of the Versailles treaty.
He insists that the governme Mt
must come out of the premier's con-
ference to be held this week with
definite assurance of such deci-
sion.
Sounds Battle Cry.
The Poincare statement is aC-
cepted as the battle cry of the group
which insists that Germany be
forced to pay the sums that France
has been led to expect she would
pay. regardless OF whether the re-
suits Of further occupations of Ger
man territory would strain France 5
alliances.
Poincare recalls the German
treaty and discusses, item by item
the German budget. pointing out
what he calls the amazing eXpen-
ditures for internal and military
purposes, and accuses Germany OF
paying internal debts before set
thing with the allies.
This certainly is not the attitude
of the new ministry which will seek
concrete results in payments from
Germany even il forced to accept
smaller sums.

How a local Bank has grown by sharing the
Profits with Depositors

ark Trust Company financially benefited
but also the patron or depositor in every
other Bank in rural Delaware If this little
institution could do this, certainly others,
we'll and long established with heavy stand
ing deposits, should share the returns on
their deposited wealth.
The Newark Trust Company was the
first bank in rural Delaware to pay interest
on deposits thereby sharing the profits of
the institution.
There began the success of the Com
pany. During the succeeding years, that
success has grown, and today the Bank is
recognized as leading financial institution
of the State.
Figures tell the Story. The capital stock
has been increased from $4,000 to $780,
900. The Little Bank around the corner
was moved to the Model Banking House on
Main Street. No dividends were declared
for the first 3H years but since that time
there have been paid from 5000 in 1909
to $l2,50O in 1920. In all there has been
paid $4,000 to stockholders. The un-
divided profits in 1906 were 1921 and to
July lst this year there is laid aside in un-
divided profits $84,707.l8 This means
that $4,000 capital stock has received in
dividends $64,900 and has laid aside
$84,707. 18 in profits undivided. The pres
ent book value of the stock would therefore
be $l34,707.l8.
This is some record! The figures tell an
interesting story. They are not confusing,
Just Plain, Hard Facts that can be under
stood whether you are Banker or not The
dividends have been $4,000 which is

it be the success of man, of a
business or of an institution,
the people like to read it. They
want, if possible, to catch the
- Asecret of how it is accom-
plished Success seldom comes by sheer
luck or circumstance 1t does happen,
sometimes, but in such story there is little
that is worth WHILE Usually, there is a
reason, policy that brings its reward.
Such is the Story of the Newark Trust
and Safe Deposit Company. The cause of
and foundation for it's success can be traced
to definite and well defined policy This
Bank, in its 10 years of operation, has be-
come part of Newark. 1t is more than a
Bank or business; it is an institution. 1t is
a very vital part of the growth of the COM
munity. Though owned and directed by
comparatively few citizens, it has shared it's
success with every patron of the Bank
More than that-every depositor in every
bank in rural Delaware has felt the influence
of the Newark Trust Company and has
received practical financial returns because
of its policy and practice. This is broad
statement. Its truth is proven in this story
Where Facts Count
In Bank story, Ideals, Policies, Imagi-
nation play but little part The intentions
and plans of Board of Directors may be in
teresting but Facts dominate. 1t is the one
place that Figures bare hgures-take
on life and inspire or destroy our conf
dence. The individual success of Directors
may inspire a confidence, but the Bank
Statement tells the real story-and con-
vinces.
With the Newark Trust Company Facts
and Figures tell of it's success more con-
vincingly than is possible by mere word
phrasing.
Sixteen years ago, June 1905, this COM
pany started in small but neat quarters in
what is now the Post Office on Academy
Street. With a capital stock of $4,000,
the Bank was organized with the following
Officers and Directors:
President, Samuel J. Wright
Vice-President, Henry C. M. Kollock.
Secretary, Charles B. Evans.
Directors: Samuel ]. Wright, Henry c.
M. Kollock, Charles B. Evans, David c.
Rose, John w. Dayett, John Nivin, Walt H.
Steel, George w. Rhodes.
These men were known as good busi-
ness men, successful in their own line,
but-was the venture warranted? Did
Newark need such an institution? With
these and other such questions usually
asked, the Board announced policy of pay
ing interest on deposits-thus sharing what
ever success they were to have with their
patrons. This made every depositor an in
terested stockholder and direct beneficiary
in the profits. At the end of the first year,
the Boards statement shows that they paid
$4,000 in interest to depositors and laid
aside $523.ll as undivided pro6ts-and
declared no dividend This was a surprise
and innovation. To pay to patrons more in
interest than the Directors and stockholders
received, was something unheard of.
Not only were the patrons of the New

The Real Success---the Great Pride
of the Company


of the Company
Great as is this record, the pride of the
Directors is the Interest they have paid to
Depositors. The capital stock and un-
divided profits, we have seen, amount to
$l34,707.l8. This is the record of E years.
But in that time the Depostors have been
paid in interest $l46, ,548.1l. The Directors
have shared profits with their patrons, giving
little more than half. It's a hfty-6fty pro-
position. Before the Newark Trust Com
pany began operations, this interest went to
stockholders. The Depositor paid this, in
fact, to the Bank for the security and safety
of his deposits. The Newark Trust Com
pany gave the same security and safety and
shared the profits with the Deposition This,
then is the reason for the success of the
Company. Facts and Figures tell it. De-
positors tell it, other Banks tell it by follow
ing the lead. Today every bank in the State
pays interest on deposits.
Incidentally, the Newark Trust did an
other thing of which they are proud and
which has added to the interest of every
depositor. They started 4 per cent on saw
ings and per cent on checking accounts.
At a State Bankers Meeting the question of
reduction of rate of interest came up. Three
per cent instead of Four per cent was advo-
Gated The Newark Trust held it's position,
being the only Bank voting for the Four per
cent rate
The Newark Trust maintains that upon
every dollar deposited the profits should be
shared Deposits, large or small, are well
coined The small deposit made every week
or month gets the same attention and re-
ceives the same rate of profit as the big busi-
ness deposit. 1t is Community Bank with
every patron sharing it's success.
Other Interesting Facts
During the sixteen years of operation,
The Newark Trust Company has attracted
over $l,500,000 in Deposits to Newark
Banks. 1t has sold over 100000 worth
of Real Estate. This Department has had
much to do with the development and
growth of the town-both in the business
and resident districts
This is the Story of the Newark Trust
Company and why it solicits, with conf
dence, the patronage and business of this
community.
The Small Deposition is welcome. To
him is due much of the credit of the success
OF the institution Contrary to custom in
many Banks, this Company makes no
charge for caring for small accounts nor ex-
acts any fee for small balances. The Com
pany appreciates the business of the Small
Savings, the Small Checking accounts. It
appreciates, too, the big business and de-
lights in caring for its banking details. Both
have made possible this Success-and +o
both is offered equal courtesy, equal atten-
ton, equal security and equal share in the
Profits resulting from that Success.
