Omaha erllpM all records In bank clear
1ms TuSay by attaining th enormous
total of $4.304,317 01. This Is th second
time In history that the flrures have been
above the $4,009,000 mark, the former hlfh
mark having- b-n made January 3, with
uomethlns; over 14.131,000.
Tuesday' record Is all the more remarka
ble when It la considered that the former
high record of January i was made the
day following- a hollrlay. Hanks were closed
on New Years and the clearings regis
tered on the second day of the year were
virtually for two days.
The figure for March 2, 1909, were 13.
429,61341. Tuesday'a figure show a gain
of 1774.77141 over the corresponding date
last year.
February' record for the month was
$62, 677. 1M. 00. which was over $14,000,000
greater than' the flfruree for the second
month last year. Both records are good
ones, for February had only twenty-two
banking days, deducting four Sundays and
two holidays.
"The pace we set on the first banking
day of the year was certainly a fast one,"
commented William B. Hughes, secretary
of tho Omaha Clearing House association.
"Today, however, we have topnotched the
record. It Is a hard one to equal, but there
1 still time and we may even pass these
figures.
"March Is usually a good month In the
banking line, as Is reflected in the clear
ances. There Is considerable movement of
grain and building material In the spring,
which Increases the circulation of money."
More Builders
to Ask Increase
Bricklayers and Carpenters Will Fol
low Flatterers, Who Get $8,
as Demanded.
Now carpenters and bricklayers have de
cided to ask for an Increase In wages, the
Increase to. apply to all jobs on which con
tract are let .In the future, but not on
Jobs for which the contracts are already
let. Some time ago the plasterers asked
for $6 a day, which was granted by the
contractors. ,
Neither the carpenters nor the bricklay
ers have as yet presented their demands
to the contractors, but they will ask for
a hearing at the meeting of the contractors
to be he'd next Tuesday evening.
Carpenters are now receiving a minimum
of 45 cents an hour wl.th a rising scale to
66 cents an hour. They will ask for a raise
of 5 oents an hour. Bricklayers are now
receiving 624 cent an hour and they de
cided, at a meeting held Sunday afternoon
to ask for 76 cents an hour, the same as
was accorded the plasterers.
"We don't want to have any trouble and
are not saying a word about striking,"
said H. Stroesser, business agent of the
carpenters' union.
