Oct 29.--Scores of children la the public schools are ad dicted to the use of cocaine, according to a confession of Edward Lee. aged 15. the vender of the drug.

'Phone red 170$. tlon If the bank.. can hold this, since It Is known that he has filed his pe tition In bankruptcy. In his petition he cites the fact that hU personal property Is valued at ?7,003 with debts of $94,000. . Any one knows that It Is not expected that under forced sale, as will be the case under bankruptcy proceedtnfea, that' the property will pay the debts and expenses. Mr. Scrlber says the bank, if properly handled, will pay dollar for dollar. This is absurd; what it may pay no one at this time can tell. Those most Interested claim it will paj out B0 per cent. There are .'others who would be more than glad to sell thelr clalms at this figure. There art so many things yet that cannot be as certained. ' For' instance, those offi cers having county, school and city funds are now having attorneys Inves tigate If the law will not ; warrant these claims being classed as prefer red, alleging they wore trust funds. It la also well known that some of the stockholders have sold their stock transferred on the books. Here Is chanc for litigation. Another point which In some measure will cut down th&'percentage is where a man hold ing a note for $600 and has a deposit, this deposit is credited in full, where as if he had not have been a drtJjr to the bank Ke would only have been paid pro rata. This will cut down straight depositors some, possibly not very much. ' .', ...'.'; " It is evident that there will be more or less litigation before the final ac count.! filed.- ' It ! takenthat upon the organiza tion of a new bank it will probably take care of all the good paper. This will 'naturally result In a saying anO at the eama time makes payments, or at least portions quicker than would otherwise be possible. . It Is one of these problems where the depositor can figure himself not nearly so bad as it might have been, or he can look upon the other side with little com fort. It will require some little time before Receiver Neidner will know very much about It One of the great est unknown quantities la to tell how much ot the remaining unburned pa per Is good. ' ,. The Interview from Scrlber follows: "I will not try to give bonds, as it would be only a few days before some other charge would be brought up and there would be more bonds to give. 'And I have not tried to get away. and If I had wanted to do such a thing I have had hundreds cf chances to Co to. But there Is nothing of the run away kind In my make-up.
