la Supervision Adeaaatef
The principal business of the session was
transacted today. The opening session was
licld this morning. Secretary Royse of the
State Banking board reHd a paper on the
subject, "la Federal and State Bank Su
pervision Adequate?" which wus followed
by an Interesting discussion on the sub
ject In general and the liability of bank
examiners- for negligence in their duties;
the failure of the State bank at O'Neill and
the suits against Examiner Whittemore be
lug a text for much of the talk. This was
one of the most Interesting topics before
rue association. C. F. McGrew of Omuha
spoke on "Legitimate Competition," from
which it appeared that the strife of busi
ness and the methods of obtaining It are
as strenuous In the banking as In other
nusincsa. The last paper was bv G. W.
Wattles of Omaha on "The Signs of the
limes. Mr. Wattles said:
Fears Too Much Optimism.
But I did not come here to nreueii u -nr.
mon on the sins and omissions of the
bankers of Nebraska; I came to apeak on

Earning? of the State.
The earnings of this state, which fifty
years ngo was an uninhabited desert, for
a single year are equal In value to all the
worm s average annual production of gold
and silver. At present Nebraska produces
more grain per capita than mw other atutn
In tho union 1-ust year its dairy products
were the largest per capita oi any state
and yet only about U,0u0,0uu out of 49,0ui,00i
acres of Its lands are under cultivation.
At present the Tutted Stales government
aim numerous puunc ami private corpora
tions are building great Irrigation canals
in the western part of the state, which
will place under Intense cultivation large
areas heretofore unproductive. In the large
cities of the state many manufacturing
plants are being established and many
jobbing bouses built, wlille In Omaha there
lias bt en orga.nlr.ed a drain exchange. This
exchange has during Its first year's exist
ence handled about ao.UiO.uoO bushels of
grain and by Its efforts in securing better
railroad rales and better market facilities
It has addi d at least S cents cer bushel to
the farm value of all the grain produced
In the state. Several largo terminal ele
vators are now under construction and
grain and cereal mills will follow. Dally
on the streets of our cities are to be seen
new Immigrants from foreign countries, a
part of the 8K,0(M who annually come to
make homes In this the most prosperous
country in me worm looay.
When we contemplate all thesa wonder
ful changes which have taken place In
Nebraska during the lost ten years we
cannot do otherwise than look, with hope
and confidence to the future. When we
consider tho undeveloped resources of the
suae the opportunity for growth, tho strong
financial condition of our citizens. Urn
fact that there are no dangerous specu
lative tendencies at present, and the
further fact that we ur eniiasred In the
most stable business in the world, that of
producing tho necessities of life, the most
conservative banker cannot truthfuilv
prophesy any impending disaster to our
slate, w lien we look outside the bound
aries of Nebraska we see a nation at peace
with all the world, busily engaged n sell
ing to the other nations of the earth over
$0.000.XK) worth of products annually more
than we buy from them. We see the bunds

medium is sound and stable, that every
dollar Is equal to and lutercbangi able for
the best dollar to be found In the world.
We sea our government In the bands of
men fearless and honest, who, under the
baderhlp of a president unsurpassed In
Integrity and matchlHss in shinty, are

supply of gold was thereby greatly dimi
nished. The opening of these mines and
their Increased output during the past two
years has no doubt in turn, had something
to do with tho- charge for the better oi
financial conditions that ba.s obtained since
the beginning of lfi;t. Aii examination of
statistics on ihe gold production of the
world reveals a large increase in this
Production during the past three yeara
'rior to 190U the world's output of gold
never exceedd $:tmi.000,(n)0 except In the
year lKw. In ISni3 this output was HL'5. 00(1,000.
In 1404 it is estimated at i34o.oC.0n0. and If
there is no unforeseen cessation of this
output, even though no new fields are dm.
covered, from present known sources of
supply It Is believed by expert statisticians
that the output of the world for the next
twenty-five ears will fqual IHO.Oiin.oOO per
annum, it is estimated thai about two
thirds of this output is added to the money
supply of the civilized nations of the earth.
This continual increase in standard money
will have a tendency to further Inflate
values and lower Interest rates, and will
have a tendency to continue the present
good times, unless speculation ana com
merce outrun the increase of the money of
the world. At present there are no signs
of such a calamity.
Jay Gould once mid. "When speculation
In real estate commences, get ready for a
depression.'' I p to the prssent, even this
sign has not appeared. It la true (hat our
rich farm lands he been selling for
prices never before reached, but they are
worth the money, and almost all sales
are on a cash basis . No speculative booms
have appeared In any of our eltlea. A
failure of crops, which Is a remote con
tingency, would check business activity,
but would not affect our state to such an
extent as In past years, when almost every
farm was mortgaged for all it would bear.
Our farmers now, as shown by the
enormous Increase of country bank de
posits have money to their credit In these
banks. Our buwnesa Is farming and stock
raising, and as long as the farmers and
stockmen of the state are even fairly
prosperous, there Is no danger of a panlo
hero, no matter what may happen in
speculative centers. Each depression dad
Its own peculiar signs and causes. Some
times the spirit of unrest and discontent
breeds a desire to change tariff laws, and
In the disturbance of such a change comm
general stagnation of business. But almost
universally past depressions huve been pre
ceded by wild and general speculation. At
present the gamblers of Wall street are
engaged In an effort to get the country
to buy their watered stocks at inflated
prices, but as yet they have not succeeded,
and there is no sign of trouble from that
source. In our great money centers there
Is a more complete organization among
financial Institutions than ever before. Two
years ago the hank of New York City
withstood a shrinkage In stock values of
over two billions dollars without a failure
of any consequence. Foreign nations have
paid ua nearly three billion dollars In settle
ment of our balance of trade lu the ztiet
ten soars, and each succeeding month this
balance In our favur continues to ac
cumulate. As long u we sell more than we buy,
we w-t'.i continue to proMper. This rule
applie'i to the nation, tho stare and tho
ind vidjai. When this condition t-harsgee.
ani the dreams of avarice incite true fevrr
of speculation, then, and not until tlesM,
will the signs of the times indicate Im
pending financial storms.
Sew Officers re t'kosea.
The bankers this afternoon elected the
following officers: President, Charles Perkey
of Wahoo; vice president, W. E. Smalls
of Fremont; secretary and treasurer, H.
A. Clark of Columbus. The next meeting
will be held In this clt. The total enroll
ment during this session reached 190, wbick
Is the largest number that lias attended
any meeting of the association.
RELIEF FUND FOR FIREMEN
Board Will Put (barter Provision
Into Active Effect as Moon
s Possible.
Fire and Police Commissioner l.ee
Spratlen has returned from New York,
wdcre he spent ten days on business. "The
Equitable Life trouble Ik occupying the
center of the stage," says he. "From
what I heard I do not think that Vice
President Hyde will be displaced. He
owns loo much of the coinpuny and his
control is too deeply rooted."
He was asked what the fire and police
l"ml Intended to do regarding the crea
tion of a firemen's police fund, slmllHr to
the police relief fund, the former being
authorized by the charter for the first
time. The commissioner said: "The pro
vision was Inserted nt the suggestion of
members of the board, and the plan will
be put into effect Just as soon as possible.
I shall bring It up at the next meeting
of the board. Xhe fund Is to be raised by
asssing th- lirepien not to exceed 1 per
cent of tbnr Income and is to be controlled
by a board of seven firemen,, elected in
June, and the Board of Fire and Police
Commissioners. The money is to bo dis
tributed, according to rules and regula
tions adopted, in cases of Injury, disability
or death. The details of the plan will have
to be worked out later."
The new charter provides for the pen
sioning of firemen more than 50 years of
age who have served fifteen continuous
years or more. The rules of each relief
fund are to be made by the firemen and
policemen themselves,, sudject to tde ap
proval of the fire and police board.
PECULIAR RUN0F FATALITIES
Death Has Been Busy nllh Men
and Families of the Court
lionae.
Within recent weeks the families of vari
ous occupants of ofiielal positions In the
county court house have suffered losses
Of some member by death. First the moth
ers of County Commissioner McDonald and
of Chairman Kennaid of tho county board
died, the one in Omaha and the other
in Toledo, O. Then a Juror named Graves,
engaged on a cast) in Judge Redick'e
court, was taken sick and died within a
few days.
Nexl came a telegram telling of the
death of the mother of Clerk of Court
Broadwell In New York state.
On Thursday last a juror In a case in
Judge Redick s couin, Mr. Plvonka of
South Omaha, lost a child by death and
had to be excused from atendance on
court, the attorneys going ahead with
eleven Jurors.
Judge Howard Kennedy lost his father
by death early In the week. Next the
word came that the wife of County Treas
urer Fink was dead, on Ftiduy evening,
after several month's Illness. And It Is only
a short time ago that George Sherwood,
a well known bailiff and prominent char
acter In local politics, was killed by being
struck by a street car, an hour after ho
had left the court house in the fullness of
strength and health. '
THIEF OUTRUNS HIS PURSUER
Servant Girl Pursues Sneak and Com
pels Aim to Drop Part of
Plunder.
Pursued by the servant girl of the house
he had robbed, a snoak thief as com
pelled to drop part of his plunder Friday
afternoon. The family of J. Khurtleff.
Sherman avenue, was away from
dome and the girl had gone to another
house to talk with a friend. The thief
entered and stole thre rings, a diamond
stud and a suit rase In which was a re
volver. He came out of tho house Just
s the girl was returning. She took In
th situation at a glance and started In
pursuit. A few minutes and she dad
gained such a distance on the flying man
tdst de was compelled to drop the suit
case in order to facilitate his progiea It
was lucky for him that she was not used
to running for she soon lost her breath and
had to desist from the chase.
People ho Dwell In Darkness ott
Want Ihe lamps to Shed a
Kev llaia Over Their
Illnay Paths.
A vigorous kick that had no difficulty In
reaching the city hall das gone up from the
outhing illst ids and the Improvement
dubs thereof against putting any more
arc lamps In the downtown section, as
l ixoied by Acting Mayor Zlmman and City
Electrician Mii-haeNen. At Ihe meetings
of the Wes't Leavenworth and the West
Omaha improvement clubs lust bight,
fervmt protests were made by members
against the scheme.
"The meeting of the West Omaha club
was u big one.'' says Gas Inspector Lynch.
"The talk agiinst any more lightning
downtown, was very pronounced, although
no formal action was taken. The meat
of the nrgununt seemed to be that the.
business illstib t Is sufficiently ell equipped,
with light, lire and police protection, water
mains and other conveniences, while all
Ihe suburbs want s more light and that
in all Justice they ought to have It. They
argue that It Is absurd to put Inmps In
tiie alleys downtown, We.-, there are
stretches of three and four blocks In the
residence pans without so much as a
gasoline light."
Oplnlens of Connellmen.
Councilman OBiicn says: "The Idea of
lighting the slr"Hs downtown better Is a
splendid one. and I should think with the
l.t! new arc lamps and prospective more
gas lumps If the price is cut. Ihnt tho bust,
ness district could be spared twenty-eight
lire lamps or so, without Injury to the
suburbs. This would be only the number
properly allotted to tho Third and Fourth
wards. I think that the outer sections
should be givin the proper attention."
"if I have any extra lights left over In
the Fourth ward 1 should favor the out
lying districts getting the first chance at
them," said Councilman Nlcdolson.
Councilman Dybnll of tde Seventh ward
said: "1 have demands for nearly four
limes the fourteen lamps at my disposal
and I am against lighting up the down
town district any more until the resldonce
sections are properly taken care of. Thie
seems to be the general sentiment."
Acting Mayor Kimman says he Is not
determined to (orce the plan through and
wants the subject thoroughly discussed
before nny action is taken. He Is still ar
guing the downtown side of the contro
versy, but Is willing to give In if a ma
jority of connellmen opposo him. He In
tends to bring tho matter up for full
discussion at the general committee meet
ing Monday afternoon.
Wants an Inderatandlngr.
"No part of the city should bo discrim
inated against," says the acting mayor,
"but I am In dopes tdat with nil the new
lights under the electric light contract,
and with additional gas lights that will re
sult if we get a cheaper contract for these,
that tdo suburbs con be properly Illum
inated and the plan for the retail section
carried out also. There is no necessity for
any improvement club getting alarmed. I
broached the subject more to get U
threshed out and understood than with the
intention of trying to force It through."
BIG CHIEFS HAVE HEAR RIDE
Mould Diets Takes a Pair of Crows
for an Automobile Spla
About Tmv. J ,
Big Shoulder Blade and nnty Ccalp,
two chiefs of the Crow Indian tribe, were
In Omaha Friday from their reservation
in Montana. They were on the way to
shake hands with the Great Fatdor nt
Washington and to see tho Big Water
Where the Sun Rises. Shoulder Blade, bad
never been In a city of more than 2,000
Inhabitants before, and Plenty Scalp had
never ridden behind the steam horse until
he started on the present Journey.
The two chiefs were entertained by
Gould DletB. who took them for a ride
In his automobile. They grunted In utter
disgust when asked to climb Into a wagon
without horses, but looked at each other
with wondering apprehension when the
machine started. All through the rid
they wero so frightened mat they could
not talk. Mr. Diets! drove out Into the
suburbs and let the machino out to Its
best speed. Shoulder Blade and Plenty
Sculp clung to the seat with desperate
embrace, their dusky faces drawn with
terror. When the auto rounded a corner
thev looked as though resigned to instant
death. After the trip was over Plenty
Scalp drew a deep breath of relief and
said:
"Ugh. Heap ride, heap fast ride. Go
all same llko swift deer."
Much interest was shown by the war
riors In the Big Muddy, whose fame they
knew from doaens of their people who had
crossed It. They were dazed by thes tupen
dousuess of civilization and asked If there
were more people and housee by the aide
of '.he Big Water than here. They con
Mntied their eastward Journey Friday night.

It dad been erased. Judge Vlnsonhaler
called him In and questioned him as to hi
