BISHOPS ALLEGATIONS.

The Secretary Says the Attack on the
American Originates 10 the Bankers
League.
The Journal of the same date also
publishes an interview with Mr..
Bishop, Secretary of the American,
in which, after demonstrating from
the books the soundness OF his Asso.
citation, he charges sinister motives
upon the Governor of Minnesota, in
urging on this attack. From this
interview we make the follow ing
extract:
Governor Merriam is banker
The Bankers league is opposed to
national building and loan associa-
tons because we give the people
money at 6 per cent. while they make
from 10 to IL and, further west, Is
and 20 per cent. Governor Merriam
is member Of the league and Ken
yon was appointed by Merriam.
Kenyon in making this report is
merely acting under instructions from
the Governor because the Governor
is opposed to these organizations.
Kenyon made report on the bust
ness some time ago; he was reap
pointed about 10 days ago, which was
part OF his pay. l suppose. When
Kenyon made his first report there
was a mistake Of $3l 900 in it against
US. He furnished the Tribune with
his report "a hours ahead. and then
sent out 1000 copies of the paper
containing the scoring which the
Tribune gave us and also the mistake
Of S3l, 900 to parties with whom we
had been doing business. AS to the
charge that we invested 100000 of
our funds in the stock OF the German
American Fire Insurance Company,
Of St. Paul, will say that the au-
thority for that investment, or rather
the authority for making all such
investments, was given US by Public
Examiner Kenyon himself, and ]
have his signature to the document
giving US authority to do it in my
possession. We are going to 6gh.
this thing to the bitter end.

l.. F. Root, who occupied the Judge Warner place at the foot of the Street for some months, last year, died at IF Thompson street, Bridgeport, last week. He was about 55 years old and leaves wife and step son. He had been in the employ of the Adams express company for nearly a score of years, most of that time a faithful and popular agent at Stamford. About three years ago, he was compelled to give up work on account of ill health and finally came to Newtown, seeking renewed strength. He was unsuccessful, however, as the disease from which he suffered, an internal can cer, admitted of no cure and but little al- deviation of suffering, which at times was terrible. Since he left Newtown, he has been failing more rapidly and his death was not surprise. The funeral was at tended, last week Thursday, by Rev Will liam Brown of the North Main street Methodist church and the burial was at
 Mountain Grove. There was large dis play of flowers, including pillow of ros- es and carnations with s'At Rest" from the family and beautiful standing an- chor from employees of the Adams ex- press company.

LOOKS WE'LL FOR WICHITA.

The following, taken from the Shoe and
Leather Reporter of January 16, shows up
well for our boot and shoe trade and will
be of interest to the many readers of the
EAGLE. 1t says the shipment of shoes
from Boston for 1889 show gain of 123, $50
cases over those of 1888. They then go on
to enumerate the shipments from Boston
to the principal states and territories,
showing the increase and decrease in each
case. Shipments 70 Kansas, 1889, 16,525
cases; 1883. 9, $50 cases. showing a gain of
1873 per cent. They then append list of
few cities and towns in which there have
been the largest proportionate increases of
receipts together with the number of cases
shipped from Boston in 1889 and 1888, and
we will note the increase in Kansas, our
own city heading the list, as follows;
Wichita, Kan, 1855, ,076 cases; 1889, 1904
cases, showing business of more than
double for that of 1888. The shipments to
other cities OF Kansas for 1889 are as fol-
lows: Atchison, 6l9 cases; Fort Scott, CSC
cases; Leavenworth, 2,525 cases; Topeka,
! .2.3 cases This is only one branch of
Wichitas mercantile industries, but it is
rather conclusive that she is doing her
share of the business.

COLD AND HOT WEATHER BUSINESS.

The coal dealers were all smiles yester-
day. A week of mercury firm at zero
brought relief They had been figuring
for the tenacious cold weather for some
time. They had run up the raw weather
flag many times before the Dakota winds
registered in the town for lay over, but
the bad weather came after while and they
will continue to rejoice. One of them
said yesterday he was no hog, nor did he
train with the hog species, but he was
afraid the sun was going to drive away the
market too soon. With a few more weeks
of violent weather he would be willing to
allow few days of warm weather.
The ice men have been hard at work on
Chisholm and Little river. They find the
ice crop much better than it has been for
years and they are getting along very nice
ly laying up large quantity of ice.
A member of the Crystal Ice plant re-
marked yesterday that he was afraid the
weather had been trying to do them an in
jury but was not much afraid 1t would
succeed. They would make ice all the
same and conduct business this year very
much like they did last. The plant is be-
ing repaired to some extent. The ma
chinery is being examined carefully and
all defects remedied to decrease chances of
a shut down when work commences. The
capacity is being increased nearly fourth
enabling them to make about thirty-five
tons daily. Many of the surrounding
towns are making arrangements for reg
ular supply The demand from the out
side will be greatly increased over that of
last year.

THE NEW hose CART.

Yesterday evening the new hose cart for
No l was completed and the boys took
possession. 1t is a home production, be-
ing put up entirely in the Mckenzie car
rage works of this city. In every respect
its pronounced beauty and the manu-
facturers guarantee it to wear equally with
any imported article. The running part
is painted vermilion. while the body is
dark green. 1t is beautifully lettered and
the boys say it is admirably suited to all
the purposes for which it was constructed.
1t now has nine hundred feet of hose on it
in readiness for service, but its full capac-
ity is fifteen hundred feet. Its capacity
for carrying hose is about one-third great
er than the reel and at the same time is
much easier on the horses. The old reel
has been transferred TO No. on the West
Side. where it is likely to do service for
some time to come. AL of the hose houses
are now finished and on the arrival Of the
new engine the department will be about
as well equipped as any department in the
west
