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. FOR POLICE FORCE Matron Controversy Takes on New Interest, With New Figures. DRANK LAUDANUM, THREW THE BOTTLE IN MOTHER’S LAP gpeelnl to The Georgian. 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. "PAUL M*KINNEY.' IS BY NEGRO FOOTPAD Alex Johnson, of 391 Auburn avenue, was held up and robbed at the point of a pistol Thursday night at Auburn avenue and Jackson street. He was relieved of $13.
