Reports Made by the Agents Showing Number of Wards Under Care, The April meeting of the board of chil- dren's guardians, held Saturday ev was attended by all the members Dr. M. D. Peck, who was fll, Those pres- ent were Mrs. Lucy 8. Doolittle, president; Mrs. John W. Babson, Mr. John F. Cook, Mrs. Mary L. D. Macfarland, Mr. William J. Miller, Rev. Louis Stern, Mr. James B. T. Tupper and the secretary, Mr. B. Pick- man Mann, and also Mr. John W. Douglass. agent. After transaction of routine business and the receipt and discussion of committee re- ports a committee, consisting of Mr. Mil- ler, Mrs. Doolittle, Mrs. Macfarland and Messrs. Cook and Tupper, was appointed to consider the question of obtaining author- ity from Congress to pay a salary to the secretary of the board. The committee was empowered to act in support of such recom- mendations as it should deem proper. The monthly reports of the agents of the board, Messrs. 8. 8. Parkman and J. W. Douglass, were read and accepted. These showed that the organization is now charg- ed with the care of 619 permanent wards, of whom 116 are maintained in institutions at board, 111 In private homes at board, nine In free institution: in free homes and 80 are at large or caring for them- selves. During the month of March inves- tigations were completed and action taken in cases involving 107 children, of whom 77 were considered not proper subjects for public guardianship, four being non-resi- dents, 27 !n no sense dependent, 18 referred to other agencles, nine adjusted by private arrangement, and applications on behalf of 24 children were withdrawn. Sixteen children were committed to the guardianship of the board during minority, eight because destitute of a suitable home, four because alleged to be incorrigible and four because of unfit parents. Fourteen children were placed on the temporary ro!l, eight of whom, by order of court, are still in the same relation. The physician's report showed forty vis- its made to thirty-three children, but no deaths nor serlous In Fourteen chil- dren were placed in free homes. Seventeen children were visited in foster homes out- side the District, and ninety in boarding homes in the city. Agents’ Special Report. A special report prepared by the agents showed that of the children now main- tained at the expense of the board twenty- a seven have been so maintained for six months and less than twelve months; thirty-four for twelve months and less than eighteen months, and 105 for more than eighteen months; and in a portion of these cases, the statement not having been com- pleted, the reasons were given why these children were kept on expense instead of being placed in free homes. Some of the reasons ‘assigned were the crippled condi- ton of the children, chronic diseases, feeble physical or mental condition, bad habits, need of training for life in famWy homes and failure to be acceptable, to persons de- iring to make adoptions. In three or four cases were children reported as with- held from placement because mothers were looking forward to becoming able to re- sume charge of them. In two cases a child was kept at board in a home where another was maintained, without expense. One girl had been returned from seven family homes in succession because of bad temper and disposition. Other children had been tried in homes a smaller number of times. By a unanimous vote the salary of Miss Jennie M. Tustin, who has served the board as clerk, stenographer and type- writer for many years, was advanced to $75 per month, and the secretary was Instruct- ed to express to Miss Tustin the board's appreciation of her service in the past. An order was passed that the physician of the board should not call other Physi- clans into consultation at the expense of the board except in cases of extreme cmcr- gency without leave previously obtained from the board or an agent. Mrs. J. W. Babson was appointed reporter for the month upon the visiting list of the agents, and the meeting adjourned. So Mr. Brownell Secured Thira Cup, The finals of the annual golf tournament, given by the Atlantic City Country Club on the links at Northfield, near that city, were played Saturday, and the victora of the four cups, for which 118 players, repre- senting clubs of eight or ten states, strug- gled for three days, were as follow: First cup (Atlantic City cup), Walter J.

Brownell, Washington INCREASE i INT BANK NOTES DEPOSITS OF-SONBS INDICATE IT TO BER. $50,000,000. ron Applications for @ver Five Hundred Charters—Oniy Three Have Been Granted. An increase in the bank note circulation of about $50,000,000 is, already in sight. This is the increase pase@ upon actual deposits of bonds in the treasury under the new !aw, without any est{maté for further deposits. The circulation has mot yet shown this in- crease in full because the controller has not been able to issue notes to all the banks entitled to them and asking for their allowance. The proof that the increase of nearly $3),000,000 is assured as soon as the notes can be issued is afforded by com- parison of the bonds on deposit and the total circulation January 81 last and at the close of last week. The deposit of bonds increased considerably during Feb- ruary and early March before the new law took effect, In anticipation of the benefits expected from the refunding law and in order to be ready to exchange the old bonds for new. The bonds on deposit to secure circulation January 81 were $235,830,170. The amount Increased Saturday last to $259,945.950, an increase of more than $24,- 000,000. The increase to the par value of the bonds already pledged January 31 wou'd add $23,500,000 to the circulation, making a total obvious and certain increase of about $47,500,000), The total bank note circulation January 31 Was $246,987,193, including $36,820,404, cov- ered by lawful money and in process of re- tirement. The total Saturday last was 273,732,872, of which $39,088,772 was cov- ered by lawful money with the purpose of retirement. The bond-secured circulation Rone, which stood January 31 at $210,166,- 789, has Increased only to $234,644,100, which is about $23,000,000 less than the increase would be if the notes had been issued to Which the banks are entitled. Putting the bond-secured circulation, therefore, at $260,- 000,000 when the notes ‘are all issued and allowing 00,000 for notes in process of retirement, the total circulation within a few weeks, without any further increase ef bond deposits, shou’d stand at about $295,000,000, or nearly $50,000,000 more than January 31. Farther Increase in Circulation. What the further increase in bank note circulation will be in the near future Is a subject of some difference of opinion, It is not likely to exceed another sum of $50,- 000,000 within a year, and will probably be less. Bonds are still being deposited to some extent for new circulation, but not rapidly as was the case for a few da The depo , While the bonds withdrawn 0), leaving a net Increase of This rate of increase would re quire about four months to add another sum of $50,000,000 to the circulation, but it is not at all probable that the deposit will continue so large. he fact that the treasury is somewhat behind in shipping currency will in Itself delay deposits of bonds, even where ne circulation is desired. Many of the banks are likely to de c dep of the refunding law ai pres sugge 2 for cur- culation is being rapidly pushed under of the di mination in taxatic which makes the tax twice as much upon the old bond as upon,the new. he cirew! tho » pledged ). ‘The; ma: ure public deposit: 2 mer in which the old bonds have been. withdrawn may be judg from the decline of; the old fours on de- posit on January 31 from $12 710,850 on April 7; the 3 1 from $52.663,920.t0 $23,145,900; $16,656, $7d45,850 from $17,947,750. to §41,7: The latier class of bonds, are not available for re- funding, but suffer as a basis for bank note cireulation by the double tax on the notes as compared with the new bonds.

The number of bank charters applied for has already exceeded five hundred, and if they took the entire circulation to which they are entitled, upon the of a capi- tal of $25,000 : ein clreula- en this com- not be call pre ‘ocess of Incory and only three charters | completed and issued.

One of them, with A capital of $25,000, took circulation {fo th: s yet be amount of only $6,800; the second, with 2 capital of $40,000, took circulation to. the amount of $10,000; and a third, with a capital of $25,000, took circulation to the amount of $7,000. Some of these banks may tncrease their circulation h voit the price of bonds de ent indications the inc as the result of establishment of the new banks will be a very few millions of dollars. The application for five hundred national banking charters does not by any means represent an increase by this amount in the banking institutions of the country. extension of the national system to sm: banks is leading many well-established state and private banks to enter the tem, nd it is estimated that at least 60 per cent of the applications come from. titese existing institutions. The applications in some other cases may never be carried to the point of opening the banks to business, while others are practically owned by larger banks and will possess much of the character, although not the official stamp, of branch banks.
