September 80, 1889 The number ran
ported at that time ae 8,290.
Within the year 911 banks were organ

91,940,000. Thirty-six of the new bank!

yet - - Within tbe report year .41 banks went
I I ! into voluntary liquidation and only two
failed, leaving the net additions to the
14 system 108,1 a against? 60- last year,
f j , and 113 the' annual average inorease
. elnoe tbe organisation of the system.
' Notwithstanding this gratifying in
j i orease. the system has not kept pace
with the necessities of the people for
increased banking facilities.. This Is
videnoed by the marked increase in
percentages of State banks organized
the last five years, as compared with the
percentage of the Ave years Immediate
1 T f ly preceding. This growing tendency
to incorporate under the statutes of the
several States Is sot attributable to any
. change in the law aflooting either Na
i 1 1 tional or State institutions, but is
charged directly to the fact that no
profit results to the banks by reason of
the deposit of bonds and issue of circu
lating notes. It is olalmod, In fact, that
an actual loss results In many Western
States and Territories, where tbe inter
est Is high and the banking facilities
most needed.
It Is demonstrated through tablos pre-
fared by the Government actuary that
here is an actual, lose resulting to Na
tional banks by reason of their being
obliged to deposit bonds and take out
circulation, wherever the current rate of
interest is greater than 4.70 per cent.
As the prevailing rate in all of the
States west of the Alleghanles Is in ex
cess of that named, it follows that In the
greater number of States, and those in
creasing most rapidlv In wealth and pop
ulation, the enforced deposit of bonds to
seoure circulation is an impediment in
the way of organization of new banks,
and bas a tendency to diminish the vol
ume of ourrenoy Issued by the banks al
ready In existence. In confirmation of
the statements made, attention is called
to the fact that the gross decrease of
National bank circulation during there
port year was SST,48tt,l9, and that the
deposits of bonds of the new banks or
. - ganized during the year were only Sit,
300 in excess of the minimum require
' " mente. - - r ) , v t . p
f. ; The reduotion of the duty on circula
tion Is commended on the ground that
the present tax Is unjust to the banks,
because it is imposed on account of a
privilege now valueless and the reve
nues of the Government are in excess
of its requirements. He calls attention
to the fact that the burden of enforced
. deposits is felt most severely where the
V current rate of interest U rlgbest and
where tht banks organize with smallost
capital.
The Comptroller bas avoldod the dis
cussion of the various plans which have
been suggested for substituting other,
securities for United States bonds as
basis of circulation. He is of tho opin
ion that the consideration of proposi
tions looking to the adoption of untried
measures would involves delay fraught
with danger to tbe national banking
yitnm in its present exigency. ,Jie . fa

Is story of the robbery Is as follows;
When the train stopped at the watei

took possession of the engine, while as-
other cut the mall, baggage and express'
ears off from the remainder cf the train
A shot alarmed Johnson, who was se I
oreting valuable packages. By thatlms. ;
the highwaymen were ready to enter his
ear ha had all but 81,000 stored away in
various parts of the car. At the point
of a pistol Johnson opened the oom-
rany s safe, and the robbers secured the.
1,000 foilnd there. They then opened
bis train box and, seeing a small amount
of money, asked whose it was. .
- 'That s part of my salary," replied
Johnson.
. The robbors left It, tolling him they
were not robbing trainmen- -Johnson
told them that was all the money, and
they left the car. It was reported at first
that the mall car bad been robbed and
the passengers relieved of their money
and valuables, but when the train

Chicago, Nov. S6. When oourt opened
Monday in the Cronln oaso William
Merta, tbe milkman, was eallod by Mr,
Forrest Marts tsti0ed that H fas a
day or two after Dr. Cronln's body was
found when he first spoke to a -polios
officer. Two officers, witness lUt not
know their names, came to him and
asked him if he knew anything f bout a
murder having been oommltted around
there. Witness then told them that
about three weeks before that time he
saw a buggy stop in frowt of the Crl:n
cottage, t A talU slim man, wearing a
dark; brown eyerooat got out of the
bugtfj and went tHto the oottitge. W it
neas did n4i rertsaiber whether he told
the date .or nrtt but-did not' think he
told them that It was too dark to reoog
nise the man in the buggy. Witness
said he also told the officers of the noise
be beard in the cottage. ' After the man
ntored the oottaje the other drove
aoutn. ..: . "
Some show of attention to the inter
ests of suspect Kunze was made by at
torney Donahue bv the 'calling of a
former employer of the. little German
to the stand. J. W. Fralech, a painter,
swore that Kunze, under the name of
John Krugcl, workod for him from April
20 to June 20. Ho attended to his duties
on May 4, working from eight a. m. to
five p. m., and he reappeared promptly
on the following Monday and discharged
bis duties as usual. "Did he have a
mustache then?" asked attorney Dona
hue. "Yes; Just about the else It la
now," the witness replied. This is con
sidered an important point by the de
fense, as Marts and others whe swore to
seeing Kunze about that time swore that
he had no mustache, or at least a very
small one. - ''
Then an attack by the same attorney
was made on old man Carlson's testi
mony about a- conversation between
Burke and O'Sulllvan on tbe afternoon
of March IB, immediately after Burke,
or as he was then known, WUllnms, bad
concluded the negotiations for the lease
f s the -, eottsgoa Carlson swore . that
Burke went at once to O'Sulllvan, who
was standing in tbe alley and said to
him: "I have got the cottage." Carlson
was verv positive about havlnir heard
that remark, 'implying as it did that
O Sullivan was fully oognltant of the
early plans of tho conspiracy,
' . Detective Crow then, swore to having
had a conversation with milkman Merts,
on the day after the post-mortem exam
ination of Dr. Cronln s body, and during
that conversation Merts told him that he
did not remember the night he saw the
two men drive np to the Carlson oottaire.
Inaamuch, however, as MeTts also swore
on the stand that he at first did not rec
ollect the date, but fixed it definitely
later when talking it over with his wife,
the testimony pf Crow can have little
effect
A rather suspicious circumstance was
nroognt Out in ihd detective s evldonoe.
Ue swore -that Merta In the same -conversation
spoke of hearing sounds of a
fight Immediately after be saw the tall
man enter tbe cottage. The detective
was asked on cross-examination why in
making his report to his superior officer
be had failed to say anything- amut
Merts having heard sounds of a fight
The witness struggled to' explain bis
singular oonduct but failed utterly and
was excused, leaving behind him a very
bad Impression.1 Then attorney Forrest
arose and saidr "The defense rests." i
The State was ready with Its rebuttal
and at once eallod Dr. -Curranl for ( the
purpose of swearing that James Lyman,
on tbe night of the Cronln funeral, told
witness that the death of the physician
had been ordered by. the -executive
board, and was therefore all right' Ly
man when on the stand lust woelc swore
that he had said nothing Of the kind.'
No sooner had the State's Attorney
asked Dr. Curran the Question than all
the attorneys for the defense jumped to
their feet and objected, arguing that to
admit the testimony would be to open a
new line of inquiry wnicn had already
been debarred.' ' it ,
Judge McConnell ruled that Dr. Cur
ran need not testify and on motion of
Mr. Foster all that part of Lyman's tes
timony relating to the conversation be '
tweon himself and Curran was stricken
from tbe record. Captain Schaack testi
fied that officer Crow never- mado a re
port to him of any kind in the Cronln in
vestigation. Osa HaaufSetartnf- Plant fold.
