J. Bradley, receiver of the failed na- tional bank, sald to-day that the money accepted for deposit within two or three days before the institution closed wouid become part of the regular deposits and could not be considered as preferred. This money w: it was stated at the time of the fallure, set aside by the bank offictals to avoid criminal proceeaings against | them for accepting deposits when the bank was in a failing condition. If this| money finally is made part of the regular deposits it is argued that the officlals will be subject to prosecution There was a better feeling about the State House to-day following the discov- ery that the State held the bond of a surety company for $250,000 to insure it against loss of money in deposit in the bank in process of collection. This means that at least one-half of the BState's money in the bank Is safe. Gov- ernor Hoch was quoted to-day as saying that within two weeks he would require State Treasurer Kelly to procure a new bond ‘in place of that signed by C. J. Dev-. lin. SANTA FE WILL AID HIM. The Santa Fe Rallroad is preparing to extend aid to the Devlin companies untll such a time as a final settlement can be made. This step is being considered by tecting itself from loss. All the Santa Fe mines in Kansas are being operated by Devlin, and it is necessary to keep the mines running in order that the road may be supplied with coal. KANSBAS CITY, July 6—Charles 8. Gleed returned to-day from Topeka, where he had been investigating the con- dition of the estate of C. J. Deviin. He said that as yet no definite policy had been decided upon regarding the opera- tion of the Devlin properties. “Every- thing that is profitable,” sald Gleed, “will be kept in operation; anything that is not returning money will be shut down. The whole question will be settled satis- factorily, I think, to-morrow.” Gleed said that he had ascertained there was no foundation for the report that Devlin owed $700,000 in Baltimore. There is, It is stated to-day, a probability that | tora, STORM LEAVES TRAL OF AU FOR WORTH, Texas, July 6.— Twenty-six persons are known to have been killed and fifty injured by the tor- nado which swept over a portion of Mon- tague County, in the northern part of this State, yesterday afternoon.

NEW YORK, July 6.—The Western Union Telegraph Company has again been caught redhanded in gelling in- formation to the poolrooms. It has been caught by the same agency, the City Club, which one year ago last May, through the personal efforts of Captain F. Norton Goddard, arranged with the officials and secured from them a com- piete fitting up of a poolroom on Madi- son avenue. This new trap to catch the Western Union was set before the death of Cap- tain Guddard, and, following out God- dard’s agreement with Jacob H. Schifr, a formal demand has been made by Rev. Thomas R. Slicer for the immedi- ate resignation of President and Gen- eral Manager Robert C. Clowry, David B. Mitchell, manager of the special wire bureau, and Superintendent W. J. Daly. The result of the former exposure was the complete abolition of the pool- room serwvices throughout the country, resulting in the loss of $5,000,000 a year to the Western Union Telegraph Company. ——— Secretary Metealf Starts for Home.

DIL NOW A JOCE Famous (Corporation Lawyer Relinquishes $300,000 In- come for $3000 Salary ahdaaaiie WALL STREET MARVELS Counsel for Many Trusts Accepts Judicial Appoint- ment in New Jersey —_——— Special Dispateh to The Call. NEW YORK, July 6.—James B. Dill, one of the foremost corporation lawyers of America, was appointed to-day by Governor Stokes of New Jersey Judge of the Court of Errors and Appeals of that State, the home of the trusts. He sur- renders an income of $300,000 a year from his law practice to become a Judge with a salary of $3000 a year. His last private act was to refuse a retainer of $25,000 of- fered by an insurance financier. No political event of recent times has occasioned 80 much comment in Wall street as this appointment and its ac- eeptance. Although maintaining his resi- dence in New Jersey, Dul has been con- sidered a New York lawyer. His office at No. 27 Pine street is in the heart of the financial region, close by the Stock Exchange. Many of the great trusts have been his clients; indeed, he was the legal father of a series of them and he has been sought in consultation in nearly every important financial litigation. Capi- talists, brokers, promoters and his brother corporation lawyers, when the news reached them, ejacu.ated this one word: ““Wh; According to a close friend of Dill, the step from the riches of a corporation law- yer to the comparative dignified poverty of the bench was taken after mature thought, in which the rcent scandals of high finance and the demands made upon lawyers to save their capialistic clients Yrom law had a welighty infiuence upon his decision. The man who made trusts in their legal form is now to be judge of their crimes and misdemeanors. Having accepted the appointment to the bench, Dil's lipe are sealed concerning his intentions, but an associate, speaking for him, said to-day: Mr. Dill goes on Court of Errors and Appeals not as a friend of the corporations, but as a stern and fearless Judge. As author of the corporation law of New Jersey he knows every phase of the trust question. As counsel during recent years for many vast corpora- tions, he {5 acquainted with their logal possi- bilities and their limitations. The matter of income does not enter into the case. There is deeper and more serious question than money or position involved. Dill feels that the timc has come when a corporation lawyer must de- cide upon which side he will aily himself; whether on the side of honesty, of law and of Justice or with financial schemers who grow more deflant of the law each year and make demands upon their lawyers for services that conflict with conscientious scruples. SECRETARY GIVES EMPLOYERS’ SIDE Claims Printers Misrepre- sented Facts Regarding Refusal to Agree. Members of the San Francisco Typoth- etae claim that their side of the nine- hour question, which is the cause of con- | tention between them and Typographical | Union No. 21 and Pressmen’s Union No. | 24, has not been fairly presented to the public. Secretary John Macintyre of the Typothetae says that the situation exist- ing is not a lockout, but a condition brought on by the printers refusing to stand by the laws under which the Inter- national Printing Pressmen and Assist- ants’ Unlon agree to be governed. He} quotes the “Book of Laws” to say that | all questions of difficult settlement are | to be left to the United Typothetae and International Printing Pressmen's Union acting in conjunction. The shops in the city are suffering from the refusal of the men to agree to the ! nine-hour law on_ the expiration of the | contract, dated March 25, 1%03, which called for a trial of the eight-hour sys-| tem. They declare it destroys all profit, ! and assert that so long as the union men persist in refusing to comply with their rules employes will be brought from the East. The typographical men call the notice of | a renewal of the original schedule a | strike, but the Typothetae claims that it is not, for any of their former employes | may return to work when they agree to the new working time. Secretary , Macintyre says that the eight-hour law is not mentioned in the “Book of Laws,” and is, therefore, un- | constitutional. Salarles are not to be kept at the same standard, according to | | | Macintyre, If the old schedule is adopted, unless the union men come to agreement on the issue. He says that the employ- erg are willing to pay the men for the extra time, {f such a demand {s made, and will do all possible for an amicable eettlement. TWO EXPLORERS MEET IN WILDS Unexpected Encounter of the Parties Led by Mrs. Hubbard and A. D. Wallace FOLLOW SAME ROUTE Searching for Indian Tribe Beyond Large Lake Not Yet Reached by Whites Special Dispatch to The Call. NORTH ADAMS, Mass., July 6.—Un- expectedly two expeditions into the Labrador wilds, led respectively by Mrs. Leonidas Hubbard Jr., widow of the ill-fated explorer, who met his death there last year, and by A. Dillon Wallace, the New York lawyer, who nearly lost his life in his attempt to save his companion, Hubbard, have met and for a distance of several hundred miles traveled in company. Mrs. Hub- bard has sent this information to her friend and counselor, Rev. James Saw- yer of Williamstown. Mrs. Hubbard prepared her expedi- tion with great secrecy and Wallace did not know of her intention to make the hazardous trip until his plans, which were openly announced, had been well completed. The two parties started about the same time, but by different routes, finally meeting at Rigolet, where the Wallace party boarded the boat upon which was the Hubbard party and remained on board until Gillieport, which is near North- west River, was reached. George Elson, an Indian guide, who was with Hubbard and Wallace last year, is with the party of Mrs. Hub- bard, although Wallace, without the knowledge of Mrs. Hubbard's inten- tions, had tried to engage him to guide his party into the wilds. Elson told him that he did not intend to guide a party this year, and great was Wal- lace's surprise to find him with Mrs. Hubbard, who had obtained his ser- vices some months ago. At Gillieport the Wallace party left for Northwest River to prepare for its long journey inland and Mrs. Hubbard remained there, outfitting and making final preparations. It is not probable. although possible, that the two parties will take the same route into the in- terior in their search for the tribe of Nauscapee Indians, which is supposed to live heyond Lake Michikamsau, the blg interior lake, which was seen but not reached by the Hubbard expedition. —_— e “PAT” CROWE HOLDS UP TWO STREET €ARS Operates Within ~ Three Blocks of Omaha Police Department. Special Dispatch to The Call. OMAHA, July 6.—Right under the noses of the police, within three short blocks of detective headquarters, “‘Pat” Crowe, notorious as the kidnapper of “Eddie" Cudahy, being in urgent need of ready cash, held up two street cars here, one after the other, to-night, and obtained the whole of the receipts for the day from he conductor of each. His labor ended, ‘Pat” performed his inimitable vanish- Ing act and the police are searching for him in vain. Crowe had only one assistant, so his share of the booty will be large enough to keep Lim in money for some little time, it is believed. ‘When the Chief of Police heard of the robbery he sent for his fellow chief in Council Bluffs. After careful considera- tion they came to the conclusion that the robbery was the work of “Pat" Crowe, as “Pat” had been seen in town on Sunday. ———— Flood Threatens Minneapolis.

NEW YORK, July 6—That a I12-inch shell loaded with only a small charge of dunnite, the world's most effective ex- plosive, will crumple the inside of the heaviest armor-clad vessel, though the shell fall short of its mark by twenty feet, has just been demonstrated at the beginning of a series of tests at the Government proving grounds at Sandy | Hook. The first test was solely for the purpose of determining a safe distance | at which the huge target, bulit to repre- | sent a section of an armored side of a modern battleship, could be moored from the shore and the observers assured of freedom from harm from the fragments of the exploding shells. For some time the experts of the ord- nance bureau of the army have known | of the destructive effect of the explosive substance, which, named after its in- ventor, Major Dunn, is a closely guarded Government secret. Foreign nations have sought in vain to learn its composition. Meantime the manufacture of armor- plercing shells filled with the explosive has gone on until now the arsenals of the United States are fillled with them and almost all the ships of the navy and the sea coast fortifications have a battle- ship supply on hand, ready for an emergency. ‘What the Government experts did not know, however, was the probable effect i’ a shell should fall short of its mark. The shot fired within the last few days has gone far beyond expectations of the experimenters. To those who were fortunate enough to witness the recent trlal the affair was intensely spectacular. A floating mass of wocdwork, in dimensions the size of a battleship at its water line, was moored off shore. Then, delicately, the 10,000~ pound profectile, with a scant charge of twenty pounds of dunnite, was submerged four feet in the water and approximately fifty feet from the floating structure. Thent all scattered to a place of safety; an electric button was pressed; those on shore felt the ground tremble, while a column of water shot into the air 250 feet. When the target was again brought to the shore the effect of the explosion | was plainly manifest and it was of such | a nature that the deductions were readily drawn. . ——— MILLIONAIRE MINE OWNER SHOOTS HIMSELF IN HEAD Winthrop Turney of Somora Commits Suicide While Despondent Ow- ing to I-Healt WINSTED, Conn., July 6.—The body of Winthrop Turney, a millionaire mine owner of Sonera, Mexico, was found to-day in a pasture in the town of Colebrook.
