POWER OF COMPTROLLER TO ASSESS BANKS | iIIviPOBTANT DECISION OF THE COURT OF APPEALS. In Massachusetts it has in- d in_thirty years (1860 to 1890) 70 to % to the 1,000,000 living, and nnecticut from €1 to 103 per 1,000.- Norway seems to be the only country in Europe where suiclde is diminishing. ' The latest figures given by Dr. F. di Verce show that “suicide has in Italy continued the movement of ascent which 1s proper to it, rising from §%0 verified cases in 1872 to 1343 in 1881, and to 2000 in 188" All who have made a special study of this subject have arrived at the conclusion that there is in Europe and North America a steady increase in the number of sui- cldes. “Some writers say that it {s mounting in Europe at the rate of 60,- 000 a year. Different causes have been assigned by soclologists for this formidable rise. Dr. Fehr, in his learned work, Influenza as a Cause of Insanity’’ (Copenhagen, 1895), states that in Den- mark after the severe and widespread epidemic of this malady in 1887-88 (here was observed a rise in the number of suicides owing to the mentally de- ng and debilitating effects of this ase. Dr. Ireland traces the great- er portion of the cases of suicide to severe strain upon the nervous sys- tem which may be the outcome of a multiplicity of causes. Among these causes may be mentioned the increased strain of modern life upon the nervous system, and this is said to be paral- leled by the steady increase in insanity in Co; 000, | Judge Morrow Hands Down an Opin- ion of Great Interest to All Na- tional Banks in the Unitea States. A decision of the United States Circuit | Court of Appeals was handed down yes- | terday by United States Circuit Judge Morrow in the case of J. Frank Aldrich, | receiver of the Tacoma National Bank, vs. Louls D. Campbell, in the District of Washington. | The vital point at issue was as to the | power of the Comptroller of Currency of | the United States to enforce the collec- | tion of assessments In the case of in- | solvent national banks. In the opinion the court holds that the Comptroller of the Treasury has jurisdiction to enforce by assessment the individual liability of | the stockholders of an insolvent national | bank equally and ratably, and not one in modern times. Dr. Ireland’ for another, to the amount of thelr s 1505 : gunt heif| studies on the Ilunacy returns | stock in'the ‘bank at the par value there-| SRS, on U lunacy returns Acting with this clearly defined author.| 1and and of .various parts of the continent accord with the conclu- siong arrived at by Koch, Kollmann, Cettingen and Luiner, who have made laborfous studies on this question— viz., that there is a real increase of in- sanity. Dr. Ireland also lays stress on the decadence of orthodox religious belief In the great towns. “It is In great cities like Paris, Berlin and Vienna, where agnosticism abounds, that we have the greatest number of suicides. In a recent fssue of the Revue des Deux Mondes (May, 159%), an article appears from the pen of Louis Prool, entitled *'Sul- cides from Poverty in Paris.”” In that ar- ticle, the cause of sulcide was found to be the difficulty of obtaining constant work and the low state of wages of some em- ployments. —_—————— PROMINENT PEOPLE. ity, Judge Morrow holds that the order | of the Comptroller directing the assess- | ment is absolutely conclusive upon the stockholders of the bank, and cannot be | controverted by them in any defense they may seek to interpose against the action based upon such an assessment. The par value of the stock of a national bank is | $100 for each share, It appears that the Comptroller, in the | progress of proceedings In liquidation of the Tacoma National Bank on April 27, 1895, levied an assessment equally and ratably upon all the shareholders of the bank at the rate of $5 per share. This ass ment being $35 per share less than the par value did not exceed the juris- diction of the Comptroller to ralse within | that limit by assessment upon the stock- holders of the bank funds to keep the contracts, deeds and engagements. On anuary 20 the Comptroller levied a sec- ond assessment of $17 per share, making a total of $82 per share. These two as- ssments being together $18 less than the | par value of the stock were within the | jurisdiction of the Comptroller to make in the proceedings which he had instituted { to wind up the affairs of the bank. Against this second assessment, the court holds it is no defense, either at Jaw or in equity, to say that the first assessment was more than sufficient to pay the contracts, debts and engage- ments of the bank. Whether that assess- ment was sufficlent is a question which the law has placed wholly within the power of the Comptroller to determine, and without gome showing of fraud, ac- cident or mistake it must be deemed by the court to have been insufficlent, and the necessity for the second assessment conclusive. Judgment of the court reversed and the case remanded with instructions to sus- tain the demurrer and dismiss the bill. - e CAUSES OF SUICIDE. ECENT writers in many countries agree that suicide is on the in- crease, but the causes that they assign vary all the way from the weather to the decline of the or- thodox religious faith. Dr. W. W. Ire- Jand gathers their conclusions in an ar- ticle in the Journal of Medical Science for July, and the London Lancet makes an abstract of the article as follows: The records collected by Durkhelm in 1897 show that there are always more sulcides during the six warm months of the vear (April to Septem- ber). This apparently holds good for all countries in Europe. Thus, of ev- ery 1000 suicides per annum from 5% to agnre committed in the warm summer seagon, and but 400 in the rest of the year. A steady and rapid increase af self- destruction is common to the whole civilized world. “It is most marked in those countries which take leading arts in the world’s doings.” Dr. D. . Dewey has recently been studyin the question in the New Englan Btates of America. He finds that since 1860 sufcide has increased about 35 per Mark Twaln will return to America In September. His visit to London is pri- marily to arrange for an English edition de luxe of his collected works. Nansen, the Arctic explorer, is now fired with an ambition to try the Antarc- tic regions, and he hopes to have an ex- E;dlllgg;n organized and ready to start Admiral Schley says of his Western trip: “If a man had two reasons for pride in his country and should then visit the \\:'esl he would return with a hundred more. Professor Alexander S. Mackenzle, as- sistant professor of English in the Uni- versity of Pennsylvania, has been elected to the chair of English at the Kentucky State College at Lexington. Professor Benjamin Ide Wheeler of Cor- nell, who has been elected to the presi- dency of the Universitiv_of Californla, is one of the best classical scholars in this sountry.

Bpecial Dispatch to The Call. NEW YORK, Nov. 7.—Cornell and Co- lombia were well represented at Manhat- tan fleld this afternoon when the foot- ball teams from Ithaca and the local uni- versity met on the gridiron. Colu»mblu was a pronounced favorite, odds of & to 4 being laid on the blue and white, but lh% wearers of the red and white had plenty of backing. The Ithacan rooters got all the cash, as well as the glory, as Cornell won, shutting out the Columbia team by a score of 29 to 0. The weather conditions were perfect for od game. Fully 35,000 persons wit- nessed the contest. Of these 12,000 passed through the several entrances and crowd- ed the stands and bleachers. The re- mainder were packed like sardines on the big viaduct and along the new road upon the hefghts to the westward. ‘‘Coogan’s bluff” and the surrounding points of van- tage overlooking the enclosure afforded accommodation to thousands of dead- heads, who joined in the cheers and col- lege yells which were continuously echoed and re-echoed from the field below. The red and white of Cotnell was more plen- a titful distributed than the Columbia colors, but the crowds seemed to be equal- ly divided in its allegiance to the rival teams. When Cornell scored the first touch- down and kicked the goal the Ithacan sympathizers broke loose and the waving mass of red and white flags and ribbons extended, over some forty acres of North- ern Gotham. Columbia was very much _crippled shortly after the opening of the game by losing the services of Wright at right guard, who was disqualified for SIUgging. A few minutes later Captain Wilson was forced to retire and soon afterward Cor- nell scored, Walbridge running and dodg- ing for forty yards through Columbia’s layers and planting the ball behind the ine. Young Xkicked the goal and Cornell counted six points. The remainder of the first half was not productive of any score, The second was full of good plays and hard work, in which Columbia was at times unfortunate. Cornell was always the stronger and with two more touch- downs and subsequent goals, in addition to a place kick by Young, 23 points were added to Cornell's score. At the end of the game Columbia had failed to tally a point and the contest ended in Cornell’s favor with a total of 29 to 0. The line-up was as follows: Columbta. Position. Neidlf K 81 albridge 4.

Bpecial Dispatch to The Call. STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Nov. 7— The Stanford football team met its seco: defeat of the season to-day at the ha of the Olympic team. The game W; played: on the university campus. T Stanford team seemed to lack ginger a the hard game of Saturday, and the Olyr pic forwards had little difficulty in tear- ing big holes in the Stanford line for t backs to go through. The Olympics ¢ pended almost entirely upon line buc ing, using their backs and their he guards, Cotton and Cadwallader, to good effect. When Stanford had the ball they relied upon end runs for thelr gains, Fisher and Smith both making gains of fifteen yards in this way. Stanford was notably weak on the defensive, partly be- cause SO many new men were tried in the line. To the strengthening of this part of the team the efforts of Chamberlain will now be particularly directed. McFadden played o tine gamé at end. Cadwallader Kicked off for,the Olympics, Murphy mak- ing a pretty run-in of twenty yards. After an exchange of punts Olympic got the ball in Stantord’s territory and bucked it down the field, Levy carrying it over for a touchdown. Murphy kicked off and the ball was re- turned, Murphy getting it on Olympic's thirty-five-yard line. Smith made fifteen around the end and Fisher four through tackle. Murphy then tried for a field goal, but the ball was blocked, McFadden fall- ing on it. Stanford tried the ends again, but made no gain, and Murphy fell back for another try at the goal. His drop kick from the eighteen-yard line went squarely over the bar for the second time this season. The Olympics made one more touch- down in this half. They bucked the ball to Stanford’s twenty-yard line, lost it on a fumble and then Sheehy got it on Stan- ford’'s fumble and scored, Cadwallader kicking goal. The rest of the half Stan- ford kept the ball in the Olympic terri- tory, Fisher making one fine end run of eighteen yards. The second half was a short one, and the Olympics gained another touchdown by bucking the line. ‘The score was Olympic 16, Stanford 5. The line-up was as follows: Position. Olympic.
