NEW YORK, Oct. 25. Another nerve
racking day has passed, but the financial
Institutions of New York have shown
extraordinary powers of resistance to the
pressure put upon them. While It Is true
that several minor institutions have been
forced to close their doors, yet two things
should be said about them. First, that
the amount involved was not so great as
to exert any marked Influence on the
general situation, as these banks were
located In residential quarters and n did
not come in touch with the larger finan
cial institutions of the metropolis; and,
second, there is every reason to believe
that these banks and trust companies
are entirely solvent and their difficulties
will prove to be only temporary and due
entirely to Inability to secure ready cash
on the gilt-edged securities In their
vaults.
Of course, the cessation by these eompan
les caused trouble to many people, but
not so great as it might seem, as the de
positors are for the most part located
In the well-to-do quarters of the city
and many of them are people of wealth,
who have suffered no great inconven
ience. Savings Banks Kequlre Notice.
In the light of .the commercial ex
citement, the savings banks thought it
wise to put- into effect the rulo requiring
80 to ,60 days' notice for the withdrawal
of deposits. This will prevent the with
drawal of money which would otherwise
be put in safety deposit boxes. The sav
ings banks, if they continued to make
payments, would be obliged to withdraw
funds from National banks, thereby
causing an additional strain on the gen
eral banking situation. There was not
the slightest hint that any of the savings
institutions was in anything but the
soundest condition and it was pointed out
that the savings banks of this state are
so restricted by law in investing their
money that there can be no question that
all of the securities in their possession
are of good vafue and readily saleable
In normal times.
Banks Closed During Day.
The institutions ' which closed their
doors today with the sums due depositors
re:
The United States Exchange v
Bank, Harlem t0,000
International Trust Company,
a tirtitt IDA n.Vl
The Borough Bank of Brooklyn.. 4,000,000
The Brooklyn Bank 7. 1,300,000
Williamsburg ' Trust Company,
Brooklyn 7,500,000
First National Bank of Brooklyn 3,600,000
The First National Bank of Brooklyn,
the Williamsburg Trust Company and the
International Trust Company were allied
Institutions. None of these companies
had any Important business connections
with the larger banks which are repre
sentative of the city's financial affairs.
Big Trust Companies Stand Run.
On the other hand, a number of favor
able features marked the day. The Trust
Company of America and the Lincoln
Trust Company, the organizations which
have suffered most from runs, have been
slowly paying out to their depositors and
closed today with al' demands met. In
the case of the Trust Company of Amer
ica the run was wellnlgh spent, as the
frreat bulk of depositors have been paid
off. At the close of business there were
a good many In line at the Lincoln Trust
Company, but also there was a marked
reduction In the number of anxious de
positors. Morgan's Pool Saves Stocks.
The most favorable incident of the day
was that the Stock Exchange was 'pro
vided with funds ample to meet its Imme
diate necessities by a money pool beaded
by J. P. Morgan, which sent about $15,
000,000 to the exchange during the after
noon. The stock marked had held rela
tively firm all day, but when the pool of
money was offered in the loan corner,
there was an Immediate upturn vof prices
and the market closed strong at the best
prices of the day. As all of the loans
made today hold over until Monday, the
Stock Exchange situation will not be a
factor in the problems that the bankers
may be called upon to solve tomorrow.
A very encouraging feature of the aft
ernoon's developments was a signed state
ment by Clark Williams, the newly ap
pointed State Superintendent of Banking,
affirming the solvency of the local Insti
tutions. There was the usual crops of alarmist
reports during the day, one of them to
the effect that a large dry goods house
was seriously involved, but this, as well
as all the other rumors proved to be
false.
A" further encouraging development of
the afternoon, the good effect of which
can scarcely be over-estimated, was the
.decision arrived af unofficially to issue
clearing-house certificates probably to
morrow. There will be a full meeting of
the Clearing-House Association tomorrow
morning at 10 o'clock for the purpose of
taking official action for the Issuance of
these certificates. The immediate effect
of this will be to enable the banks to set
tle balances between themselves with
these certificates and thereby release
large sums of currency for the regular
needs of business.
The decision to issue clearing-house
certificates is likely to end any further
anxiety in regard to the supply of cur
rency. The decision means that here
after large balances against any par
ticular bank at the clearing-house can
be settled in clearing-house certificates
and the bank allowed to retain its cash
to meet other demands. The certifi
cates will be issued, as usual, only upon
the depoelt with the clearing-house
committee of acceptable securities, and
only In such amounts as the clearing
house committee shall approve, but in
the case of a bank where affairs are

sound there will be no arbitrary limit
to the assistance of this sort to be ren
dered when needed.
The first issue of clearing-house cer
tificates was In 1X60, and there were
several Issues durlngthe period of the
war. Other Issues occurred In 1873
and 1884. The last occasion on which
they were availed of was In 1893.
Use of Certificates.
The clearing-house certificate Is
practically a guarantee by ithe banks
In the clearing-house that It shall be
redeemed at par, but the clearing
house banks are protected against loss
by the fact that first-class securities,
either commercial paper .or stocks and
bonds, are required before the certifi
cates are issued. The certificates are
used only between banks In the settle
ment of their balances at the clearing
house. They do not appear in gen
eral circulation, but by relieving the
banks of the strain of large debit bal
ances at the clearing-house they en
able banks to keep their cash re
serves comparatively intact.
It is believed by competent bankers
that an Issue of $50,000,000 will be the
butslde limit of what will be required
on the present occasion. It is believed
that the mere fact that they are to be
Issued will so far restore confidence
that runs upon banks will cease, so
that it will not be necessary to' keep
the certificates outstanding for any
considerable time.
Already the strong city banks are
receiving large deposits from persons
who have withdrawn their money from
the banks and trust companies which
have fallen under suspicion. This
does not preclude the fact that consld-

WILL PRAISE PRESIDENT
Banquet of Traffic Club Made Oc

Policy and Dcnun
, elation of High Finance.
CHICAGO,' Oct. 25. (Special.) "If the
railroads claim a square deal, they must
give -a square deal. It will not , 'be long
until the railroad magnates who are
now denounolng Roosevelt will praise
him. for having saved them from them
selves." ' . 1
Hurling these bombshells into the ban
quet of the TrafBo Club, an organization
of railroad magnates,, superintendents
and traffic officials, tonight, E. E. Clark,
Interstate Commerce Commissioner,
created intense Interest. His address was
closely followed and applauded at times,
although It contained some bitter doses
for the audience. Mr. Clark said. in part:
Caused Buccaneers to Halt.
"The railways of this country probably
never will keep up with the demands for
greater and better service and facilities,
which the commercial Interests have
earned and which are their right, so long
as the roads are operated with an eye
singly or chiefly to the speculative value
of their securities. 1
"The policy of the Administration has
caused many railroad buccaneers to halt.
Enough has been exposed of dishonesty
and downright fraud abundantly to dem
onstrate the propriety and timeliness of
the President's policy, and It Is these
exposures rather than his policy that
have had the effect complained of.
' Saved From Themselves.
"It requires no gift of prophecy to see
that a continuance of the practices
against which the President stands so
strongly, and many of which recently
have been brought to light, might Invite
drastlo and even . violent means of cor
rection, which would bring destruction
upon the very interests themselves. In
a very short time these interests will feel
grateful to President Roosevelt for the
policy which has saved them from them
selves. History will write Theodore
Roosevelt as one of the Nation's Immor
tal executives, who In his day saved the
Republic . from Impending destruction."
RAILROAD STARVES CATTLE
Government Sues Southern Paciflo
Under 2 8-Hour Law.
SAN FRANCISCO. Oct. 25. Thirty-three
suits against the Southern Pacific Com
pany have been filed in the United States
Circuit Court by United States Attorney
Devlin at the request of Attorney-General
Bonaparte. The suits were brought to re
cover 1500 in each case, or a total of J16,
500, for violating an act of Congress to
prevent cruelty to animals in transit on
the cars. United States Marshal Elliott
reported yesterday that the process in
the suits had been served upon Manager
Calvin and the Clerk of the Circuit Court
then took off the seal of secrecy which
had been maintained since July SI. when
the first action was taken in the matter,
because of a peculiar - rule imposed by
Judge W. W. Morrow. The complaints
charge that on 33 different occasions the
Southern Pacific Company confined cat
tle in the cars 36 hours without rest for
food or water. The law limits such con
finement to 28 hours at most. '

there and make the positive announce
ment that the Burlington has accepted
the survey of a proposed route from
Frafinie, Wyo., to Fromberg, Mont.,
and that construction work will be

LANE FEARS XO CAR SHORTAGE
Tells President Northwest Is Wclrl
Supplied With' Coal.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 25. Interstate
Commerce Commissioner Lane conferred
with President Roosevelt today, at the
request of the latter, regarding the car
shortage in the Northwest. The Presi
dent was assured that no present alarm
need be felt on account of the lack of
coal in the Northwest, as the railroads
had been shipping coal to that section
during the Summer. That there is a cat
shortage is apparent, but no Immediate
crisis is anticipated because of that fact.
The crops are being moved, but more
slowly than desirable.
Fruitgrowers Case Argued.
"WASHINGTON, Oct. 25. Oral argu
ments were heard today by the Interstate
Commerce Commission in the case of the
California Fruitgrowers' Exchange and
others against the Southern Pacific Com
pany and the California Citrus Union as
lntervenor. The complainants alleged In
their petition that the Southern Paciflo
furnished cars for the transportation only
of. such fruit as was actually picked and
warehoused, instead of supplying cars to
each shipper, as heretofore, in proportion
to the amount of the season's business
done by the shippers. The shippers main

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 25. (Special.)
It is 18 months ago that San Francisco
was swept by fire and earthquake. Since
then she has been afflicted with indus
trial strife, civic corruption and bubonio
plague. It Is no opportune moment to
take stock. It does not require an op
timist to write the rosy story of the re
vival. The faots and the figures tell
their own story and they are here for
everyone to see. Great buildings with
their rigid frames lacing across the sky.
commercial avenues crowded with pedes
trians and a vast Industrial army tell a
tale that even the casual obsorver must
note.
The San Franciscan- may in truth be
pardoned 'If he shows a disposition to
place his thumbs in his vest and boast
of what he has done. But he hasn't much
time for boasting. The terrible pace be
gun when the first frame structure was
started has not abated. The point has
been reached where resulta are beginning
to show, and with this has come a new
zest for tha vast work.
$100,000,000 Worth of Buildings.
Since the fire, buildings have been
begun to cost $100,000,000 (one hundred
million dollars), five times as much as
In any similar period of time before the
fire. They range all the way from the
small structure to skyscrapers 14 and 15
stories high. It is as though a building
were begun every day to cost $180,000.
There is no sign of a decrease, although
it is expected that there will be a natural
falling off over the Winter months. The
remarkable feature of the matter, how
ever, Is the stability of the savings ac
counts. Predictions were freely made
that San Francisco could be built only
upon the savings of Its citizens. Although
$100,000,000 In buildings are under way or
completed, the savings accounts in the
local banks have shown but a Bmall de
crease and still stand at the comfortable
figure of $157,000,000.
It has been pointed out that it required
two years for Baltimore to erect .build
ings to cost $50,000,000 after its fire, but
San Francisco has done four times as
well In six months less time. Baltimore's
achievement was commented upon at the
time as marvelous.
The most encouraging feature of San
Francisco's- reconstruction -has . come in
the last few weeks with the completion
of some of the large office buildings"
down town. There has been a rush for
accommodations, and In consequence the
;
down-town section has been booming.
Large structures bring rents 25 per cent
larger than before the fire. Whenever a
new office building Is completed, it brings
its hundreds of tenants into the district,
and In their wake come new retail stores.
This process has reached the point where
Market street, at Third, has begun to
assume Its old-time activity. There Is
the same rush for streetcars at 5 o'clock
In the evening as made that hour In the
old days the most Interesting of the 24.
Shift of Business Centers.
With the completion of these large
buildings, the features of the new city
are rapidly taking shape. In general the
various districts will occupy their old
time places. There are some few notable
changes, however. First and foremost Is
the removal of the financial center from
Montgomery street to Market street. Be
fore the fire, the banks crowded each
other for space on Montgomery street.
In the new city a chain of banks will
stretch along Market street, from -Montgomery
to Powell, a distance of four
blocks. In that space will oe 12 of the
largest financial Institutions In the city.
Many will remain on Montgomery street,
but the financial strength will He with
Market street.
A shift In the wholesale district Is also
noticeable. Before the fire, it crowded at
the lower ends of the streets north of
Market. Just before the disaster a gen
eral movement had set In to take up lo
cations southof .Market street, where the
big establishments would not only be In
close communication witu the water
front but would be near the Southern
Pacific Depot at Third and Towhsend.
Taking advantage of the fire, wholesalers
are establishing their plants on Mission
. street and other thoroughfares south of
Market.
The retail district has shifted up one
block. Formerly Kearny street claimed
the attention of the woman shopperj,
but the large retail establishments have
by common consent moved up o-e block
to Grant avenue. From Grant avenue it
will stretch westward along Sutter, Post
and Geary streets, surrounding Union
Square.
Barbary- Coast's New Life.
The theater district is still a matter of
some- speculation. The large theaters
have erected permanent structures In
Fillmore atreet (where the city moved
after the fire), and with one exception
have not yet made their plans to return
.down town. The exception is the Or
pheum, which has arranged to rebuild on
its old site in O'Farrell street, between
Stockton and Powell. The Columbia
Theater owners are contemplating the
erection of a newptayhouse in Van Ness
avenue, at Geary. This Is several blocks
beyond the down town section.
There need be no doubt as to. the resur
rection of the Barbary Coast. It sprang
Into full life long ago, and the old-time
revelries have been In full swing the:-e
for several months. With the arrival of
the Paoiflc fleet, the "Coast" had a boom
such as it had not experienced since the
Spanish War. In passing, it may be re
marked that the population of the Bar
bary Coast has reached a stage which
necessitates an automobile and 'bus line
to augment the streetcar service.
Built Up on Great Waste.
A few days after the fire tho writer
made his way down Third street, from
Market. It was a tangled mass of ashes,
tirlcks, twisted Iron, and, in fact, in
distinguishable as a street and only a
part of the great waste. -Third street
today is lined on both sides with splendid
brick structures. It holds he record for
reconstruction.
Under the new administration streets
have been repaved, the remnants of the
debris removed, and the way cleared for
unobstructed progress.

Von Moltke replied that there had

Throush' the discovery of a coat in
which there were papers belonging to
C. M. Johnston, of Machias, it is be
lieved the body of one of the Northern
Pacific wreck victims at Rock Cut, on
October 7, has been identified. ' The
body was buried in the potters field
for lack of identification, but the coat.
Just found at the scene of the wreck,
indicates the body was that of Johns
