Shrinkage Explained
Inquiry among bank officials as
TO the causes of the slump in de-
posits on hand showed three rea-
sons for it. The principal one was
payment of millions of dollars in
Christmas savings accounts. The
other two causes were the recent
crash of the stock market and
withdrawal for the purpose Of
avoiding payment of excess taxes.
The latter, it was explained, is
0 minor cause. It is due to the
fact that one must tell in making
out tax returns the amount of
money in their banking account
ct the end of the year. A large
number of people, it is claimed,
withdraw portions of their funds
at this time and place them in
safe deposit vaults until after the
first of the year.

FOR ANOTHER
VISIT
BY ANDREW r. KELLEY

Washington's three perform
ance opera season. was so close
to a financial success-the deficit
was a mere $4,000 divided among
the guarantors - that already
plans are being made for the
1881 visit of the Metropolitan
stars.
The sponsors are hopeful OF en-
gaging the Fox Theater again
but there is no assurance on this
point at the moment: Though
the rental is heavy, the facilities,
extra seating capacity and ac-
companying magnificence more
than offset the additional eX-
pense.
More people saw the opera this
year than ever before and heard
it also under the best of condi-
tions. Measured from this, stand
point it was a brillianW social
success.

America as head Of the British COM

He was most famous perhaps for
