Five hundred feet down a crevassa In

covered the bodies of sis burros making
up the pack-train of a party of Eastern
prospectors who started for the Copper
liver country from this port 1J years

W. H. Crary. a m usher who was travel
ing over the glacier, made the discovery.
The depths of the crevasse were Illumi
nated by the sun as Mr. Crary crossed It
and he caught sight of the burros. With
I tie aid of his binoculars he ascertained
that the burros were In a perfect state
of preservation and equipped with sad-
dlea and packs. He could not dlscovnr
any human bodies, but It Is believed tne
owners of the pack-train perished with
It In the crevasse, and an attempt will
be made as soon aa the weather mod

crevasse Is far from the old Copper
River trail and this leads to the con

By Manipulation of Xotes Quanali
National Bank Iays Out Entire
Capital In Dividends and
Kept Secret Two Years.
WASHINGTON". Dec. 29. Disclosures
following the forced liquidation of the
Quanah National Bank of Quanah, Tex.,
ten days ago, caused the Controller of
the Currency today to Issue an order di
recting every one of the 7100 National
Banks In the United States to Install
what practically amounts to a uniform
system of bookkeeping.
Investigation disclosed that the bank
had been doing business for the last two
years, although in an Insolvent condi
tion, and although inspected at reg
ular intervals by National bank exami
ners. Within that time the examiners
were unable to leatn the bank's true
condition, largely because the manage
ment refused to keep a proper record
of its transactions. It nln showed that
the entire capital of 350.000 and prob
ably some or the 3'tS.OOO surplus was
paid out to stockholders as dividends.
Examiner Fooled by Tricks.
In the statement. Controller Murray
says his examiners were hoodwinked for
two years by the way the bank handled
Us notes.
"Within theae two years." the Con
troller says, "the bank carried compara
tively little 'past due' paper, all tne
notes having the appearance of being
promptly paid or renewed. The bang
had no discount register and tho various
earning accounts were kept In such a
manner as to make it practically impos
sible to audit them.
'By this method of accounting, the
bank, without detection by the examiner,
had the doubtful and worthless notes
renewed with the Interest added to the
note at the time of renewal. This inter
est on worthless paper had not been
collected and was credited to some one
of the earning accounts and. as the divi
dends were regularly paid, this resulted
in paying the capital out to shareholders
as dividends.
Reports to headquarters show that an
examiner finally became suspicious
shortly before the bank's closing and in
elsted that a new set of books ba in
stalled. This the officers did under pro
test, the report says, but they abandoned
the new system to return to the old
one two days later, after the examiner
had departed. Returning to Quanah un
expectedly the examiner found the
change and reported It by telegraph to
Washington.
Examiner May Enforce Change.
To Insure a system of bookkeeping by
which the true condition of a National
bank can be determined at any moment.
the order Issued today directs examiners,
on finding a bank whose exact condition
they cannot determine, to report the
fact by telegraph to Washington and
give the management of the bank 30
davs to Install the necessary books.
"At the end of that period." says tne
Controller's order, "the examiner will
return to the bank at Its expense to de
termine if instructions have been com
piled with and. If the necessary books
have not been Installed, lie will remain
In the bank at its expense until such
books are Installed under the direction
and supervision of the examiner."
No proceedings to tlx tne responsiDU
Ity for the Quanah National's condition
have been taken.

S. Denis Inquiry May Reveal Alle
gations Are True,
VANdOUVER. B. C. Dec. 29. Alle
gations that the steamer St. Denis, lost
oft Cape Flattery last month with 15
men. was overloaded have been made
In so many quarters that It has prac
tically been decided to hold an Inquiry.
The steamer took on 800 tons oi coal
at Comox. besido filling; her bunkers.
and when she left Victoria for Mexico
she rested low In the water. It Is
supposed that when the gale hit the
St. Denis she went down nxe a stone,
giving the men no chance to get out
the boats.
The lost St. Denis was seen passing;
out into the heavy storm of November
21. when the Lome had to run for she
ter to Neah Bay. The St. Denis, plung
ing heavily, passed out in the middle of
the stream, and from the tug It was
seen that the overloaded vessel was not
lifting much, the big seas breaking
over her.
Officers of the Lome think she foun
dered soon after leaving the Strait,
probably being swamped In an effort to
nut aboufand run back.
The vessel ls described as a small
schooner with a white hull. Local chip
ping men faJled to Identify her from the
description. Tney say it cannot De tne

As often as we find it necessary, in order to keep pace with up-to-date
notions of trade. Sometimes we may be a leaf or two in advance of
our competitors, but we are never behind. Last year's leaves, last
week's leaves have no attractions for us. "Up to the minute" is our
idea of business, so the newest ideas available are here all the time.
