400 STATE BANKS
BY JANUARY, 190?
If the applications now pending are
granted Oeorgla will have 400 suite
banks by January I. 1907. Up to this
date there are exactly 393 state banks.
State Treasurer Park has compiled
some interesting figures for*a banking
publication. In 190S the secretary of
state chartered 82 new state banks.
It was thought then that very nearly
every crossroad In the state had a
bank, but the calculations went away.
To date 20 etate banks have been char
tered and some ten applications arc
pending. Evidently the 1905 record will
be almost If not quite equaled.
There are 64 national banks In the
slate, one trust company, two banking
and trust companies, and 393 state
banks, but no strictly savings bank.

Columbia. S. C„ Dec. 14.—George E.
Roland, formerly a policeman, made an
nttempt lost night to commit suicide
by thklng poison. Boland entered his
home considerably under the influence
of whisky. It I* stated. When he open
ed his door he poured Into a glass and
drank the contents of a 10-rent vlnl
of laudanum, loosing the empty vlnl
Into IiIb mother's lap. She gave the
alarm and a physician and Boland's
nephew responded.
He Is still rather III, but Is no longer
thought to be In danger.
UNCLE SAM BREAD
Is Delivered Every Day.
The police department will ask the
city council for the sum of $200,000 for
the maintenance of the department
during the year 1907.
This Is an Increase of $10,000 over
the appropriation allowed for ttye pres
ent year. Chief Jennings say* a great
er amount of money Is needed from the
fact that the force Is at present being
materially Increased.
The chief has prepared the appor
tionment sheet and It will be presented
to the board of police commissioners
for consideration and uctlon at the
meeting Friday night. After the com
mission approves the figures, the sheet
will be transmitted to the finance com
mittee of council.
Many new men are being added to
the force and Chief Jennings says the
Increased expenses render It absolutely
necessary that the annual appropria
tion be Increased accordingly.
Matron Controversy.
The chief will also submit to the
commission a report on the controversy
between Probation Officer Gloer and
Miss Sanderson, police matron. fThe
latest controversy involving the ma
tron. which Is embraced In the com
plaint made to Chief Jennings by Paul
McKinney, a street railway conductor,
will also In all probability be consid
ered.
What action the commission will take
Is a matter of conjecture, but the opin
ion prevails that the whole thing will
be turned over to the chief for adjust
ment* *
In regard to his complaint against
the matron Paul McKinney has written
a card tor publication. In which he
makes explanations and Incidentally
takes Issue with Rev. Alfred Seddon,
who has come to the 'defense of Miss
Sanderson oir different occasion* Fol
lowing the complaint of McKinney, Mr.
Seddon published n card stating that
he was present when Miss Sanderson
contracted to take McKinney's niece to
the Cincinnati Home of the Onod Shep
herd and denying McKinney's state
ments.
McKinney, In his card, declares Mr.
Seddon was not present at all, and con
cludes his communication with the
terse sentence:
"Alfred Seddon knows nothing."
McKinney also denies that he gave
newspaper reporters a statement
branding Miss Sanderson a thief. No
such statement ns this was ever pub
lished In The Georgian, but McKinney
did say Miss Sanderson had misrepre
sented facts to him and had over
charged him for the expenses of his
niece.
The following Is his card:
“I wish to say In regard to the state
ment In this morning’s paper, that I
never gave any newspaper reporter s
statement branding Miss Hnnderson a
a thief. They wrote everything them
selves; and, also, I wish to say that Al
fred Seddon was not present at the
time of the transaction, and there were
no marks oh the girl’s body. There
was nothing said In regard to beating
her'at all. The transaction took place
In Officer Gloer** office, with no one
present except us three. Alfred 8ed-
don knows nothing.
