TOM M'KINNoN RETURNS
 TO LOOK AFTER INTERESTS

All that mas been Sald about bad conditions in the States is true, ac- cording to Tom McKinnon, promi- nent Interior mining man, who has just returned from a several months stay in California and other Pacific coast States. MT. McKinnon says he doesn't know all that has been said by returning Alaskans, but he is sure they have not exaggerated. In fact, he says, it would be difficult to paint conditions blacker than they really are.
 Los Angeles appeared to be the least unsettled city visited by him, and he attributes that fortunate condition of affairs to the fact that Los Angeles is supported largely by wealthy visitors from the East and other sections of the country. He found San Francisco rather un- settled and Seattle very much so, and he was told by men who should know, that there is no hope of inn mediate improvement. Things may get back to normal in a year, but it is the opinion of many that it will take longer than a year.
 When informed yesterday of the failure of the Seattle Scandinavian American Bank, MT. Mckinnon did not evidence surprise. He explained that he had heard rumors, before he started North, to the effect that the bank was having difficulty in weathering the financial storm but he did not know how serious was the situation. He heard it reported that the bank had considerable money tied up in the fisheries and had found it impossible to turn the se- curities into cash. Mr McKinnon did not have any money on deposit in the bank at the time of the fail ure, having had occasion to use the cash some time previous to the crash.
 Conditions are such, MT. McKin- non says, that other failures pro- bably will occur. The failure of the Tacoma Scandinavian American in- stitution earlier in the year, caused heavy withdrawals of deposits from the Seattle bank of the same name, notwithstanding the fact that it was claimed at the time that the two banks had no connection. And it is reasonable to believe the col lapse of the big Seattle bank with be followed by heavy runs on the other banks of the Spirit City. It is a well known fact, however, that the bankers of the country have anticipated the present financial sit nation, by calling in loans and re- fusing to extend credits except on the very best of securities, and most of them are in sound condition now in consequence.
 MT. McKinnon came down from Fairbanks yesterday and will return to the upper town this afternoon. He will be back later, on his way to the Tolovana district, where he has numerous interests, and it is pos sible that he will make a trip into the Kuskokwim before he returns to the States. Mrs. McKinnon is spending the summer at Long Beach, Cal, and will not come North this year.
