Only routine business Is being disposed of, the principal event being the electten of the board of directors. The pells are held open for this purpose until 3t the regular closing hours of the bank. The directors as ehosen will then meet and select the officers for the year. It is not likely that there will be any change in the directorship of the bank, or in the list of officers. The past year has been a very successfol one for this splendid banking house. They .have progressed nicely under the management of Cashier fhigan an* his assistants, and the report of the advancement made during 1909 was entirely satisfactory and very pleasing to the stockholders. The bank will no doubt continue to prosper daring 191<K - 0 — — ... ■ Washington, Jan. tl—The two republican members from Indiana are asserting their independence of the Cannon organization.

in a number of other states where members who have been counted as “regulars” are expected at any time to sever their allegiance with Cannon and the oligarchy that rules the house and line up with the “insurgents.” In Ohio this is notably true. Six republican members of the Ohio delegation are said to be on the verge of burning their bridges and jdining the “insurgents.” The six Ohioans named as likely to take this course are Representatives Longworth, Douglas, Hollingsworth, Cole, Johnson and Howland. The indications are that in other state delegations the '‘insurgent” sentiment is gaining surprising headway.
