CHECKS. AFTER All, GO
Brokers Regret Selling Scheftels
Paper at Discount.
FIRM SHOWS BIG BAMK ROLL
Says It Is Ready for Any Devel
opment in Way of Deliveries
on Monday.
B. H. Schefwls & Co.. the brokerage firm
that was the scene late Friday afternoon
of a tvild demonstration by excited curb
brokers who held checks of the firm that
had been refused certification by the Na
tional Reserv* Bank, on which they were
drawn, because they were presented after
banking hours, apparently had no diffi
culty yesterday in meeting all demands
upon it.
George Graham Rice, the leading member
of the Una, was on hand -with a large de
posit yesterday when the National Reserve
Bank opened for business, and as fast as
the checks which had been issued by the
firm on Friday— and there was a number of
them— were presented for payment the
amount they called* for was promptly paid.
Mr. Rice remained at the bank unfil the
last of the firm's checks had been honored.
He then returned to his office to make
preparations to take care of the avalanche
of deliveries which are expected to be made
on Monday. There- were no deliveries yes
terday, -as all contracts made on Friday go
over until the following Monday.
When Mr. Rice -was asked if the firm
would have any difficulty in accepting de
liveries on Monday, he smilingly produced
a package of bills six inches thick with a
thousand dollar gold certificate on each
end and replied:
"This is what talks. I have J175.000 here
which will more than take care of -' u y
thirg that turns up on Monday. If not,
there is plenty more where this came from.
Look at it; it is real stuff: Nothing 'phony'
about this, is there?"
He ran his thumb over the end of the
package of bills showing that they were
all of large denomination, and. bo far as
the reporters could nee, none of it was
'"stage money."
It is understood that Charles A. Stone
ham i- Co. and ■■■ ■ or two other brokerage
houses doing business on" the curb market
=tand ready to help out the Scheftel con
oem on Monday, should it '•"- in need of a c "
sistance. From what Mr. Rice said, how
evkr. the firm expects to be able to take
care of all its outstanding contracts un
aided.
The whole trouble on Friday, according
to representatives of the Scheftel nrm. was
r»:i*-ed by the efforts of business rivals to
6 , credit it in the *>y«s of the public, and at
ro time. It was stated, was there any rea
bob for such misgivings as led the holders
«X some of the firm's checks to sell them
* a discount. '
v number of the brokers who auctioned
• ' their checks on Friday afternoon after
-he bank refuse I to certify them were
angry with themselves yesterday when
they"learned that the checks had been hon
ored at the bank, but others took the mat
ter philosophically. One of these, S. M.
Buchanan, who sold a STS7 check for $700
on Friday, said that the peaceful night s
,-l?ep he 'enjoyed was worth the &S7 that
the deal cost him.
It was expected that as a result of the
check episode .--•_- ires in which
the BchefT firm is especially interested,
eadh s.s Ely Central and Rawhide Coalition.
would be "under considerable pressure in
yesterday's curb market, but apparently
they did not lack support. Ely Central
opened at IS-l^i. a decline of *« from Fri
day's close, and remained fairly steady
throughout the session, closing at a i. a net
loss of 3-16 point for the day. Rawhide
Coalition sold at 33 cents, as against a clos
ing price of 24 cents on Friday.

ARMY AND NAVY NOTES
Retired Army Officers To Be As
signed to Duty at Colleges.
[From The Tribune Bureau.]
Washington. August' 20.
WORK FOR RETIRED OFFICERS.-Or.c
of the important decisions which has been
reached by Major General Leonard Wood
since he has become chief of staff of the
army is that founded on the recommenda
tion of the board of officers, consisting of
; four captains of the General Staff, who vis
ited the one hundred military colleges
i where army officers are on duty as pro
! fessors of military tactics. It has been
1 recommended, and Genera.l Wood has ap
! proved the recommendation, that at a num
! ber of these colleges the active officers on
duty there shall ultimately be relieved by
! retired officers. By this means fourteen
■ army officers of the active list now on col
lege duty will be returned to their regi
ments, and their places will be taken by
officers of the retired list.
Among the colleges affected is that at
j Grove City. There are not any of these col
, leges in New York Stale which arc serious
.ly affected in this way. The only institu
tion in the state at which there is on duty
j an active officer is Cornell. The other four
colleges have retired officers, and retired
! officers will take their places in case there
I is any change in the personnel. It has been
' recommended that the College of St. Fran
; cis Xavier and De La Salle Institute, in
New- York City, and the New York Mili
i tary Academy, at Cornwall-on-Hudson,
shall have retired officers detailed for duty
! there instead of active officers should there
; be any occasion for a change in the detail
! of the retired officers now attached to these
! Institutions.
It has also been decided to have a closer
supervision of the colleges. In order to see
that the work is being done satisfactorily.
ENGINEERS AT NAVAL ACADEMY.—
Lieutenant Commander Roscoe EL Moody,
senior engineer officer of the New Hamp
and Lieutenant Commander Milton
K. Reed, in charge of the marine engineer
ing at the Naval Academy, have been desig
nated by the Navy Department as perma
nent designing engineers at the academy.
THE SOUTH DAKOTA RAMS TUG.
Vallejo. Cal.. Aug. 20.— The armored cruiser
i South Dakota broke from Its moorings at
, Mare Island to-day, crashing into the naval
tug Unadilla and coming to a stop on the
mud flats. A hole was stove in the Una
j dilla's side and her deck sprung. The South
Dakota was slightly damaged.
COTTON AFIRE ON CARMANIA
Cunard Liner Detained Several
Hours by Blase in Hold.
The Canard liner Carmania. bound for
Liverpool and Queenstown. was detained
two hours and twenty minutes at her pier
yesterday because a fire was discovered in
her hold. She was scheduled to sail at 10
a. in., and had a fairly large passenger
complement tor this season. At 9:45 a. m.
several members of the crew reported to
1 Captain Barr that there was a fire in one
i of the forward holds. By the time Captain
i Barr and the ship's officers got to the for
j ward hold smoke was pouring out on deck.
A hasty examination showed that the
' smoke was coming from part of a consign
ment of 232 bales of cotton stowed in the
hold. Captain Roberts, the pier superin
i tendent, sent in a call for a flreboat, several
' piers away, which responded promptly.
! Meanwhile the crew of the Cannania did
j good -work with hose and steam on board
ship.
The fire was practically out fifteen min
• utes after the Breboaf poured in her
j streams, but Charles P. Sunnier, the agent
of the Canard Line, who had been railed
to the pier, would not lei the Cannania
leave port until every bale had been re
mov^d. The unloading of the cotton cargo
took about two hours and a half.
