LARGE FACTS ABOUT CITY
i
Baemoa Aires Saarrs Maay Thlaa-s
.that Are . Blcaeit Foand
Anywhere.
What are the names of the three largest
cities In the western hemisphere? About
100 out of every 100 well-posted cltlsens
of the United States would promptly an
swer: New Tork, Chicago and Philadel
phia, And, according to a communica
tion Just received by the Pan-American
Union they would guess wrong. This
message states that the corrected returns
of the recently taken census show that
the population of Buenos Aires haa grown
to 1,700,000, thus passing Philadelphia and
crowding it out of the third place.
The growth of the Argentine capital has
been phenomenal. In twenty years It has
almost trebled Its population and become
the largest city in the world south ot the
equator, the largest Spanish-speaking city
in the world, the second largest Latin
City Paris alone outranking it and the
third largest city in the . western world.
Immigration Is, of course, largely re
sponsible for this rapid Increase, but the
city's birth rate,' 84.1 per 1,000, haa cut
considerable figure. .
Some more Interesting questions, the
answers to which are not very generally
known, might be asked In this connection.
For instance: Where Is the finest Jockey
club In the world? Where is the most
expensive theater In the Americas? Where
the most remarkable newspaper building
in the world? Where the most elaborately
housed municipal water works station?
"Where the most architecturally artistic
business street? And the answer to each
is Buenos Aires.
A few other noteworthy facts relative
to the Argentine metropolis are the fol
lowing: No nly .is It the greatest South
American seaport, . but in point of en
trances and clearances of vessels engaged
in foreign trade It Is ahead of even New
Tork, while In tonnage and value of for
eign commerce it ranks next to New Tork
in all theAmerlcas. It is the greatest
wool exporting port In the world, late re
turns showing that it has crowded "Syd
ney, Australia, out of firrt place. tn ex
ports of frozen, and chilled beef Argentina
leads the world; next to Russia it exports
more wheat than any . country In the
world; in the production and export of
linseed it leads the world, while In the
export of corn it more than trebles the
UsHde States, and, of course, leads the
world.
' Relative to the newspaper building men
tioned above, In a descriptive article In a
recent Issue of the Monthly Bulletin of
the Pan-American union, Edward Alcea
writes.
'The bullcflng is on the Avenida de
Mayo, not far from the Plaza, and la said
i to have cost over $3,003,000. In addition
to the newspaper plant the owners of La
Prensp, tThe Press) maintain at their own
expense a free medical dispensary, an
able physician and assistants who pre
scribe for and attend charity patients; a
law office where the poor may go for free
legal advice; a free library, and a free
employment agency. A large concert hall,
beautifully decorated with paintings and
frescoes. Is maintain for its staff of em
ployes, who also have a gymnasium and
a private restaurant. Finally a suite of
rooms is maintained, consisting of a ban
quet hall, smoking room, ladies' boudoir,
reception room and sumptuously fur
nished bedrooms for the accommodation
, . . ... , . , i
of distinguished visitors from foreign !
countries as gueets of the nation In gen
eral and of La Prensa in particular.
These apartments are not inferior In
their furnishings and artistic decoration
to many of the renowned palaces of Euro
pean royalty.
incidentally the paper I
claims to have the most extensive foreign
news service of any paper In tbe world.
"The Avenida d-Jiayo is unquestion
ably one of the greatest thoroughfares In
the world. It is about 130 feet wide and
nearly a mile and a half long, extending
from the Plaza de Mayo, at the lower end
to the new plaza In front of the capitol
at the upper. Along the middle, suspended
from ornamental iron posts, is a double
row of aro lights, and on each side near
the curb of the twenty-foot sidewalks Is
a row of fine trees extending the entire
length of the street. Tke main feature
which strikes the stranger, however, is
the uniformity in height and tne fine
architecture of the building. Tne munici
pal government offers an annual prize
for the most artistic building erected on
the several business streetM, and supple
ments this prize by exempting the build
ing from taxation for a certain number
of years. Again, under the building ie,u-
lalions eajh new structure yiust hii-l
monlze in architecture, nemlit and ma
terial with lis neighbors. Thus no one
and tmo-story cheap buildin'.'S are found
to mar tho general effect on lite
Avenida.

NOT TO ISSUECERTIF1CATES
Omaha Banks Not to Ask Each Other
for Money.
SITUATION IS NOT GRAVE HERE
t altea F.frnrt Belaa- Maa ay tke
Raa Iter r the t'aaatry to Keep
apply of (iold from
Leavlaa.
Omaha bankers at a meeting of the
clearing house association yesterday aft
ernoon decided not to Issue certificate
In settling clearing house balances, but
aareed among themselves to settle with
Chicago or eastern exchange. Instead of
cash.
This will be In harmony with the
movement In the larger cities to preserve
America's gold supply during the crisis
growing out of the threatening war slt
ttstlon In Europe. The national hanks
In Omaha were notified Sunday of the
steps that had been taken In New lork
and Chicago along this line.
To Keep (.old llrrf,
"The Issuing of certificates." said
Henry W. Yates, president of the Ne
braska National Bank, "means thitt a
united effort l being made throughout
the country to preserve the country's
gold supply. For example, if a foreigner
hss a large deposit In a bank here, he
might demand hla money and demand
It In gold. ThHt does not moan that the
bank must pay It In gold. On the other
hand. If the banks decide to go on a
clearing house certificate basis, It might
Issue him such a certificate, or certify
his own check which he could then, cash
wherever he choe.
"What the banks want to do Is to
preserve America's gold supply for a
time until the rush is over, or until
fresh supplies of currency can be ob
tained through the Vreeland-Aldrlch law.
Km ope does not really need our gold as
bad as she needs our commodities. She
needs our commodities In a time like
this, and I really think It Is a great op
portunity for us."
Pa Tin a Not Affected,
There Is no disposition on the part of
local banks Individually to Invoke th
sixty day notice clause In savings bank
receipts. This was done In Chicago, ac.
cording to dispatches. Bankers say there
Is no disposition to do this here, and if
It should be eventually done, it would
come through a decision of tho clearing
house simply as another means to pre
serve the gold supply In America and
for no other reason. The sixty day
cluuse referred to Is that which requires
depositors to give that much notice to
the bank when they desire to w'lthdraw
mcney from their accounts.

moved to Nineteenth and Cass, from
where they moved into the former home
of Count Creighton six years ago. Mr.
Creighton purchased the K. A. Cudahy
house a short time ago, but an attack of
apoplexy made it impossible for Mrs.
Creighton to move and the house was

Creighton is survived by two sisters, Mrs.
