Proceedings.

MONMOUTH, Ill, Nov. 1S.-There are some
further developments in the Clydesdale horse
sensation. Early Saturday morning Col. Hol-
loway and his attorney, John E. Alexander,
went to the farm of Harrison Frantz, just east
Of the city, and found in the pasture three
mares which Col Holloway identified as be-
longing tothe lot imported by him in conpec-
ton with the Clydesdale assortment and
which were taken from Holloway's place dur
ing his temporary absence. Mr.. Frantz claims
that his son purchased the mares last week at
the Holloway farm from Buchanan, paying
him, Col. Holloway alleges, less for the whole
number than half the value of single ami
NAL
Holloway Saturday sued out writ of re-
plsyin for the mares. Harrison Frantz is the
bondsman for the Scotchmen, and the affair at
first looked peculiar, as Holloway insists that
Buchanan had no authority or right whatever
to dispose Of any of the stock, and that he
Holloway had no knowledge of the trans
action and was absent from the place when
the transaction was made Harrison Frantz
is one of the substantial men of Warren
county, and the idea that he was in
any manner in collision with Buchanan to
defraud Holloway is out of the question One
of the attorneys for Buchanan stated to-day
that the transaction was in the nature of
pawn, and that, by the written contract,
Frantz was to deliver over to Buchanan the
stock on receipt of the money which Frantz
advanced. Finkbone alias Potter, having run
out of funds, was again returned to jail Satur-
day morning, being unable to secure bail, and
without the wherewithal to hire deputy to
guard his person at the hotel any longer
G. NJ. Hardy, the Chicago lawyer who gave
Buchanan and Johnson the novel if not illegal
advice which led them to make the raid on the
Holloway farm, has failed to respond to the
numerous kilograms seut him to como to his
clients Messrs. Davidson and NorcrOss APP
pear for them here, and Sunday night the
latter went to Chicago, in company with
Buchanan and Johnson, to interview Hardy
and to secure the papers relating to the deal
ings between Holloway and the Glasgow asso-
citation. Unfortunately for he Scotchmen,
the copy Of the contract between the associa-
ton and Holloway is in Glasgow just when
they need it most, for their examination is set
for Saturday. Holloway was served Saturday
with subpoena duces tecum in order to have
his copy. 1t is expected that the examination
will develop the whole business, and show
whether Holloway is right when he claims
that he does not owe the association a dollar,
or Buchanan and johnson right when they
claim that when he pays them upwards Of
$4,000 and divides the proceeds of the recent
sale, he will then have One-half interest in
the $50 horses of the last importation. They
claim that it is true as Cash Hubbard says,
that he has cabled the association in the last
year for Holloway 100000, but that he fol-
lowed up each remittance himself, and got
the money again, and purchased horses in
Scotland for himself individually. From the
appearance Of both Buchanan and Johnson
one would not think either of them the man
to devise or attempt such an affair as that Of
the seizure of the horses, and that they are eva
identity the victims of i'll advice. The attor-
neys Tor Holloway have had counter sub
,+tpoenas served upon Messrs. Buchanan and
Johnson for the purpose of compelling them
to bring into court his letters to them IL re-
gard to the horse dealings. There is q war
rant out for the arrest of Capt Turtle, who
skipped out for Burlington Saturday and has
not been seen since. It is said that Mr. Hol-
loway has notified his Chicago attorneys to in
vestga the libellous article published in
Fridays Chicago News and learn what foun-
dation The News had for the statements made
by the reporter who accompanied the special
train Of rioters. The examination next Wednes-
day is exp 'cted to develop some interesting fea-
lures in regard to the relations existing be-
tween Holloway and the Glasgow Clydesdale
association,
