Bank Deposits Increase.
In compliance with an order from the
comptroller of the treasury, received yes
teiday, the three national banks prepared
statements shpwlng tho condition of their
burlnesS when the banks closed on June 9.
Tho previous call for a statement was
made on March 2S.
By the figures prepared by the banks last
night In response to the call, an increase
in deposits since March 28 oC ISAM! is
shown. Loans and discounts for the three
banks show an Increase of 1384,520. Cash
on hand and sight exchange shows an ln
citaae of I5D3,92 '
It is stated at the banks here that the
large increase In deposits at this time Is
caused partly by the country banks send
ing money here to be placed on deposit
subject to draft. ' One banker said that tho
fartners and feeders throughout tho state
Tiad sold a large portion of their cattle
and that the money had been deposited
In country bunks. The country banks, not
desiring to keep large sums on hand, had
sent consignments to the South Omaha
r. bnnks. This money sent from country banks
does not draw Interest, so the bankers say,
. but Is merely placed to the credit of out
. t lilt bunks . to be used as daslred.

City Infested with Tramps.
During the last few days tramps have
been pouring Into the city and in spite
of all the limited police force can do some
manage to get away. Sunday night two
dosen were arrested end detained over
night. In police court yesterday Acting
Judge Caldwell cut the bunch right in
two. Twelve he gave city Jail sentences
and the other dosen he directed to leave
the city within an hour.
The police do not seem to know where
all the tramps are coming from Just now,
but they are here Just the same. Thoee
who escape the officers detailed to watch
the railroad yards make a break for the
residence portion of the city and demand
something to eat. Lat Saturday afternoon
one family living m the eastern portion of
the city was accosted by eight different
tramps who wanted either food or money.
"What is needed," said a city official
last night, "is a good husky rock pile
with plenty of stone to break. When this
Is brought about it may be that tramps
will not stop oft at South Omaha."
Tattle Uan Company Protests.
A communication has been received by
City Cleric Olllln from the attorneys for
the Omaha Cattle Loan company. A pro
test Is made against paying taxes on a
corporation where the stock Is held by
persona residing outside the state of Ne
braska. This letter refers to the taxes
assessed for 1903, which amount to
ri.422.50. A tender Is made to pay the
principal, providing tho interest from Jan
uary 1. 1904, is deducted irom the amount
due. The letter goes on to say that this
tender is made in preference to going Into
court and fighting the legality of the city
to assess stock held by those residing
outside the city and state. This communi
cation has been referred to the finance
committee of the council and the city at
torney for a report-

Batchers' I'nlon Stands Alone.
Following tho action of the Amalgamated
Meat Cutters' and Butchers' association of
North America, taken at Chicago, the
Packing Trades council here has declared
that It has ceased to affiliate with certain
local unions. The unions that now stand
alone are the coopers, the packing house
carpenters, the can makers, steam fitters,
cir repairers, blacksmiths and blacksmiths'
helpers. In all about 890 men are declared
not members of the Packing Trades coun
cil. In order to become a member of this
council the unions mentioned must secure
a oharter from the Amalgamated associa
tion. All unskilled labor Is also barred,
and will have to look after the Interests
of Its various unions for the time being at
least.
There was little comment on this new
ordei in South Omaha yesterday, as the
matter had been discussed at the Cincinnati
convention and the understanding .was that
the ordei prohibiting tho Amalgamated as
sociation, from affiliating with unskilled
labor and other orders not chartered by
tho association would be issued about the
middle of June. No effort has been made
so far by the unions who have been barred'
from the Packing Trades council to secure
membership In the Amalgamated associa
tion, but it is thought that some action
will bo taken this month to secure charters
In ihu national association.

An Event la Art,
With the offering of E. 8. Suleeba's col
lection of Oriental art at auction a rare
opportunity has been offered to Omaha
art lovers. The sacrificing of this stock
in such manner has been brought about
by Mr. Suleeba's recall to his native land.
The sale therefore is not the ordinary auo
tlon gotten up for money making purposes,
but a sale purely for the purpose of turning
the collection Into cash. The quality of
his ruga is unsurpassed, as our local art
critics have all agreed in, and the many
favorable comments of Mr. Suleeba and his
methods of doing business are a recommen
dation to all who want a rug or piece of
art bric-a-brac.
The store. 1711 Farnam street, was com
fortably filled yesterday by our leading
people, but the prices realised were very
low. One large rug, valued at 11,200, being
sold for This seems to be a rare op
portunity for our lovers of art. The sale
will continue but a- couple of days more.

or Chocks.
Yeat Yea I
It was Eagles' night at Ak-Sar-Ben den
Monday night And there was no mistake
about it All airlines lead to the den.
Three hundred and eighty-four Eagles,
American, bald-headed, golden, harping and
other kinds of eagles, all good birds,
soared from their various aeries to pay
homage to King Ak-sar-ben. About 200 of
the flock are members of the 'local aerie,
No. 38, while the others make their nests
in nearby towns.
The new vassals to the kingdom of
Qulvcra gathered at the rookery of the
Omaha aerie and flew in double file with
colors flying to the den. where all was In
readiness for their reception. And a live
lier aggregation of feathered creatures
never before knocked at the sacred portals
of King Ak-Sar-Ben. In addition to the
Eagles some twenty-five of the visiting
veterinarians were present
After the Grand Baszasa had read the
riot act and performed the other functions
of his holy office, and the Great Orand and
Supreme Scribe read the minutes of the
last mobilization, the fuse was lighted and
the feathers began to fly. The atmosphere
was oppressive with floating down and the
odor of incinerated eagle flesh. It was a
wild night, but in the language of the
classics, they certainly got what was com
ing to them. There was no short change
racket; everyone received his money's
worth and no questions asked, and no re
bates nor trading stamps given. Every
thing was open and above board, even If
that lunch was somewhat Illusive. But
eagles are eagles; there was not a streak
of yellow in the whole bunch.
After tho Flight Was Over.
The fragments of eagles that were left
after the commencement exercises were
concluded, were gathered up by the stew
ards and taken into the banquet hall. It
was a sight for the gods td see those eagles
Impale their talons and claws Into the
flesh pots. They stood not upon their or
der of Impaling, but impaled at once and
as one bird. They were hungry and thirsty.
Exhausted nature called for sustenance
and they got it
While the material things of the occasion
were disappearing Grand Mufti A. 8. Rit
chie announced the program of words and
song. The Eagle quartet rendered numer
out selections, and those of the Eagles
that make a noise screeched and flapped
their wings until the rafters of the build
ing vibrated, and the lemonade glasses
shook on the tables. John W. Batten, Dr.
W. J. Ford and Rov. Ferd Pougeon, M, A.
L., of Excelsior Springs, Mo., responded
to toasts. The last mentioned speaker made
the hit of the evening with one of hli
characteristic witty talks. Having lost his
manuscript in the flight, Dr. Ford was un
able to speak on "Cohesion, Adhesion and
Chemical Affinity," "Political Reform" and
"Words," so Instead he gave a few ex
temporaneous remarks.
It was announced that the total number
of vassals now claiming allegiance to King
Ak-Sar-Ben number 1,487.

RESENT SLUR ON DEPARTMENT
Baxter and Mathews Explain Why
Federal 'Court Funds Are
About Exhausted.
Regarding story printed in a local paper
that federal court In Omaha would need
to be brought to an abrupt finish this
term because of a lack of funds and the
particular statement by that paper that
there is a pleasing coincidence that this
shortage of funds should occur Just at
this Juncture, which means that the Colby
and cattle fencing cases, and others to
which more or less political significance
is attached. District Attorney Baxter Bald:
"It is a gratuitous and uncalled for re
flection upon the department of Justice and
Is not at all warranted by the facts. It
was Intended by this office to begin the
trial of the cattle fencing cases, three of
them early next week. The witnesses al
ready have been summoned, but owing to
the condition of the public finances for
operating the court, I have today tel
egraphed the witnesses that they need not
come.
"This shortage of funds is not at all an
unusual occurence at this particular season
of the year, being the close of the flsoal
year In all of the government departments.
This state of affairs cannot be foreseen at
the time the requisition for funds is made,
which are usually for the quarters.
It is not usual that the courts continue
so closely upon the end of the fiscal year.
In view of this fact Judge Munger has
sought to have Introduced a bill In con
gress setting the date for the spring term
of court a month earlier than at present
so that the present contingency may not
occur. He will urge the passage of suoh
a measure at the coming session of con
gress. "It is possible that we may have to close

ever, most of the criminal cares have been
disposed of and two or three more will be
got out of the way during the week."
United States Marshal Mathews said In
reference to the matter of the shortage
of funds for oporatlng the United Staton
courts at this time.
"The condition Is not an unusual one by
any means. It should be borne in mind
that the appropriations for the operation
of the United States court are made In
bulk and not for any particular court or
district"
