Tho statements of tho national banks of
Omaha called for by tho comptroller of the
currency for tho condition at tho close of
business, April 24, wero published last
week. Tho statements show that tho
banks of Omaha aro In a healthy condition,
hut t.how no remarkable changes as com
pared with tho condition at tho limo of tho
provloiiH call, February 2, 1'jOl. There has
been an Increase In tho loans and dis
counts In an amount exceeding $500,000, and
tho character of these discounts and loans
lifts been changed hoinowhat.
In previous years tho western banker has
demanded a higher rate of Interest than
could bo secured by tho hankers of New
York and Chicago, and as a result tho
poper of eomo of tho larger Omaha institu
tions of unquestioned standing has been
sold In tho eastern market, tho local bank
ers handling at a higher rate that local
paper which, whllo generally good, would
require closer personal attention on the
part of thoso who mndu tho loans or dis
counts. 1. 11 lte Sii-iply of Money.
This year tho supply of money has been

paratively that tho local banks havo come

tho result that tho best local paper in
largo amounts Is being handled at homo.
Tho deposits exceed by moro than $1,300,

there Is a now fcaturo In this particular
Item, as much of the monoy comes from
Interior cities and farms of tho state. Tho
nmount of monoy In tho hands ,of residents
of Nebraska Is so great that In many of
tho smaller towns tho banks havo refused
to pay Interest on deposits, as they can
not loan tho money to advantage. As a

LABORER BURIED BY EARTH
.Minn llolllilny in (lie Victim of Ac
cident nt lleniiett Ex
I'll viKloil.
Whllo at work yesterday morning In the
excavation for W. K, Dennett's new building
at Slvteeitth and Harney streets Silas Ho!
liday, a colored laborer living at 2123 North
Thirteenth street, was burled by nourly
half a ton of earth, which fell from an
ovorhanglng bank. His left hip was dislo
cated and tho lower loft limb paralyzed.
Ho received soerat other bruises, but tho
attending physician declares that ho will
recover.
Tho accident occurred near tho founda
tion wall of thu IJoyd theater building. Hol
llday had been told by his foreman to dig
next to this wall and uudcr the high em
bankment. Without any sign of warning
tho earth nbovo gave way and came tum
bling down with terrific force, knocking tho
mau to tho ground. Ho was soon extricated
by fellow workmen, but was allowed by tho
men In charge to remain for nearly two
hours in a carrlago nearby before being
taken to tho hospital. Tho bank which
caved In stood nearly twenty feet high and
tho earth was dry and hard.
Foreman Jackson, when questioned by n
reporter, Irfslsted that thcro had been no
accident and paid no attention to the 'n
Jured man after ho had been carried from
the excavation.
Ilolllday was ablo to speak of tho acci
dent, however, and to a reporter he de
scribed minutely all that had transpired.
"I was digging tinder tho bank when tho
earth above gave way, but I had not tlmo
to escape. It was u pretty dnngerous place
that I was In, but I didn't rcalizo It nt tho
tlmo. I thought tho ground was solid."
After tedious delay tho Injured man was
taken to a honpital. Ills wlfo Is an Invalid
confined to her bed.

To satisfy what seems a very widespread
domand for a statement of his position on
tho Sunday closing question, Mayor Moorcs
Issued tho following yesterday:
"I have rescinded my order for Sunday
observance becauso It has been demon
strated that tho people do not want It. I
think my personal views on tho subject
aro too well known to need explanation.
I havo always believed that tho peoplo of
Omaha did not want a Puritanical Sunday,
but that tho great mass of our peoplo wero
In faor of a liberal policy In tho admin
istration of tho laws upon this subject.
Four years ngo I was elected inoyor of
Omaha und In that campaign it was well
understood what my policy was to bo In
this matter and with thoso facts well
known I w,.s elected as tho chief cxecu
tivo of the city for a term which was to
includo our great Transmlsslsslppl expo
sition. During that exposition nnd tho
Greater America exposition, which followed
It, Omaha was govorned undor a liberal
comraou-senso policy. No complaint was
ever mado of my administration during
thoso Importnnt years and tho samo
method was pursued during tho remainder
of my term. Last year I was renominated
and the feoplo of Omaha declared their
approval of my administration, ro-elcctlng
mo by n largely Increased majority. Hun
dreds of tho most Influential and ro
spected business men of Omaha at that
tlmo assured mo that my administration
lu this regard met their heartiest ap
proval nnd I have continued to enforco
the laws llrmly, but liberally, as hereto
fore. Outsider CiiiikoiI the Trouble.
"Tbo recent experiment with Sunday
closing was made to satisfy the clamor of
certain elements who claimed to bo dis
satisfied with tho way things wero running
and who voiced their sentiment through
n scurrilous shept, owned by a man named
Kellogg, who lives in Kansas City
and runs papers In both Kan
sas City and St. Paul to detract Omaha.
Ho protended to como into Omaha with
his paper to build up tho city, work for
harmony among all classes, promising to
nvold all personalities and keep out of poli
tics, Tbo sheet has been constantly in poll
tics and almost too Indecent for circulation,
tho height of Its impudenco coming In Its
brazen charge that all tho school teachers
using city hall elevators were women ol
tho town. The Insincerity of Its demands
for Sunday closing was uncovered when,
finding that Its agitation was losing It the
advertising patronage of certnlu brewers
and owners of saloons nnd nmusement !
places, whoso monoy It was uccoptlng while ,
denouneng them as law breakers, It
changed Its tune and pretended to favor)
open saloons on Sunday, In direct contra
diction of its previous demano. Only last

continues to howl about gambling going

"I bellevo tho public Is convinced by this

''I havo been assured by all classes of

Hereafter, therefore, I shall pay no fur
