LINCOLN, April 7. (Special.) Tho re
port of Secretary P. L. Hall of the State
Hanking Hoard for the year ending Decem
ber 2, 1899, was filed with Governor Poyn
tcr today. It nhows a very material In
crease In banking bus'lnS3 all over the
slato and In conclusion Secretary Hall adds
that tho Btato banking system of Nebraska
Is second to that of no other state In
ciriclency nnd safety. Already over $31,000,
000 of nsso'.s nro Hold by tho banks under
tho nupervlMlon of the stato authorities,
which docs not Include tho national bankx,
nnd thero Is every promise that theso Insti
tutions will keep pace with tho growth of
tho state. They aro Nebraska Institutions
and are created and controlled by Nebraska
laws.
During tho period covered by Secretary
Hull's report twenty-three new banks wcro
nuthorlzed nnd chartered, of which number
tivcnly were Incorporated with n total paid
up capital of $200,250. and three wcro prlvato
concerns with a total paid-up capital of
$IK,000. Klvo banks wcro changed from
private to Incorporated and ono bank was
changed from a corporation to a prlvatci In
stitution. Kour Incorporated banks were
reincorporated and reorganised and ten
banks wont Into voluntary liquidation, pay
ing all creditors In full. Only ono bank
was closed and placed In the hands of i
receiver tho Farmers' and Merchants'
bank of Iliitte, Royd county.

banks at tho close of business December

that tho banking act of 1S93 for the first
tlmo established n State Hanking Hoard and
provided for tho appointment of n secre
tary, and adds that In his opinion if tho
restrictions of the law of 1S93 had been
provided and enforced prior to tho year
1893 many of tho failures that occurred
during tho period of business depression
would have been prevented,
SiiKKi'st" Anirniliiients.
Sevoral amendments to tho existing
banking laws aro suggested, chief among
which aro provisions restricting otllccrs
and employes of a bank from borrowing
or In any way converting to their own uso
uny bank funds, for a statutory definition
of the word "bank," for better protection of
depositors and for a change In the present
fee system of compensation for stato bank
exnmlners.
Concerning these proposed amendments,
Secretary Hall says:
"An amendment prohibiting tho odlccrs
and employes of n bank from borrowing or
In upy way converting to their personnl
uso any of tho funds thereof, would be a
protection both to tho stockholders and de
positors. Such an nmendement was Intro
duced In the houso by Representative Kvans
of Adams county in tho last legislature,
but failed to become a law. Such an amend
ment Is almost a necessity.
"In former reports I havo called attention
to the unsatisfactory results obtained by
the present methods of winding up tho af
fairs of banks when placed In .tho hands of
receivers. While thero nro many Instances
whoro receivers havo discharged their duties
with caro and fidelity, yet all too often tho
appointment to tho position of a receiver
ship has been considered by the appointee
ns i personal snap nnd the assets of tho
bank legitimate prey. Tho history of re
ceiverships of both state and national banks
In tho stato has ibeen a fruitful sourco of
complaint and with reason.
"An nttcmpt was made to remedy tho
evils arising under tho present system ap
plying to banks under stato supervision at
tho Inst session of tho legislature. A bill
was Introduced by Senator Kowler cf Kill
moro county, senate Hie No. 61, which would
have dono much In that direction, but It nlsa
failed to becomo a law. This matter should
be called to tho attention of the next legis
lature. "Kfforts were mado nt the last two ses
sions of the legislature to nmend tho bank
ing net by providing for a reserve fund, to
bo collected from the banks for tho protec
tion of depositors. While protection to tho
depositors of a failed bank Is a matter of
tho greatest Importance, nnd protection
along tho Hoes attempted, as above Indicated,
meets the approval of many experience 1
bankers whoso opinions I highly prize, yet
I have never been able to bring myself to
seo that such a plan would ibo equitable.
Thero Is, however, opportunity for dlfforeneo
of opinion and, to use a common expression,
two good sides to tho question.
"Tho present fee system by which stato
bank examiners recelvo compensation should
bo changed, so that a fixed salary and noces
sary expenses would bo paid them.
"Tho feo system In any public position Is
objectionable for many reasons. Provision
should bo made for banks to pay an ex
amination feo direct to tho state treasurer,
by him to bo disbursed, through warrants
regularly drawn by tho auditor of public
accounts."
OrKiiuUltiK tor the CiiinjinlKM.
The preliminary arrangements for the re
publican campaign In Lancaster county
were begun today, with the reorganization
of the county central committee and the
appointment of T. C. Munger. now county
attorney, as Its chairman, to succeed J. II,
McClay. The candidates nominated at tho
convention yesterday afternoon met this
morning nt headquarters In tho Capital
hotel and discussed plans for carrying on an

Mr. Thompson attended this conference and

WAT KR LOO, Neb., April 7. (Special
Telegram.) At 7:30 o'clock this evening
Hudson Feather shot Cass Chrlstman twice,
once through tho left hip. the ball passing
entirely through tho hip. then through tho
testicles nnd lodging In tho right leg. The
doctor has not been able to locato the ball.
Tho second shot was a llttlo lower down
and went entirely through the right limb.
Tho shooting was dono with a 38-callber
revolver, and whllo tho parties wcro about
thrco feet apart. Roth mon live on tho
Klkhorn river, a mile south of town.
Hudson Feather lives In n smnll shack
on tho river bank, nnd ns thero was no roa 1
to his place, Chrlstman allowed him to
cross through his place; also allowed him
to uso his boat nnd let his cow run In the
stalks and befriended him In every way
possible ho could. Lately Chrlstman Ins
had to be away from heme, working at his
trado as a plasterer, anil as thero wn no
man nround tho place, Mrs. Chrlstman had
to carry water for the cattlo running In the
stalks. Sho asked her husband to sen!
word to feather to tako his cow out. as shu
could not carry water for It. This seemed
to havo angered him, and when ono of
ChrlBtman's nnlmnls got out Feather locked
It up. When Louis Zwybold, Chrlstman's
helper, went after It Feather told him ho
ought to pay him something for It, but gavo
It up without Insisting on payment of a.vy
nmount, but told him to tell Chrlstman to
como down and got his boat. When ho
returned to the houso and gave Feathor
message both Mr. and Mrs. Chrlstman
walked down to get their boat, Intcnllng
to tlo It up further up tho river. When
they retched the boat Feather was appar
ently waiting nnd expecting them. One
word brought on nnothcr, nnd Chrlstman
turned to go home, when Feather shot him.
Tho wounded man walked probably a
block before ho fell to tho ground exhausted.
Hudson Feather canto to town and gavo h'm
self Into tho custody of Town Marshal
Campbell, saying he had shot n man In self
defense. Ho Bays that when Chrlstman
started for tho house ho thought ho was
going for a gun and that he had better shoot
while he had a chance.
Hudson Feather bears a bad reputation,
having run away with another man's wife
about a year ago, nnd six months ago he
threatened to shoot Arthur Hlakc when ho
refused h'm permission to crofs his farm
In getting to the main road. Mr. Chrlstman,
on the other hand, Is ono of the most quiet
men In tho vicinity nnd bears the best of
reputations. Ho moved from Omaha horo
about threo years nso and Is well known
there. The injured man Is resting easily
and tho doctor has some hopes of his re
covery.
Hudson Feather will bo taken to Omahi
tomorrow, as thero is talk of lynching.
