KNOXVILLE, Tenn, January 30.
A gentlemanly-appearing young man
arrived here few days since on q
prospecting tour" He went to
Middlesborough. KY, the new indus
trial town, and was so pleased that
he bought real estate on a large
scale, payii e some money down. He
came here list Thursday and opened
an account 18th the Knoxville Savings
Bank. He deposited $4,000 in money
and some checks. He was OF pleasing
address and had letters of introduc-
ton from Middlesborough banks. 1t
now turns out that he was an expert
crook He was credited by the
Knoxville Savings Bank with
cash and checks. One check
was certified, and was for 81, 200
on a New York bank. A telegram
from New York prononnces the
csrtification a forgery. He took GER
titled checks from the bank here,
made small purchases and got the
balance in cash. He went to the bank
to draw out his money, but fortu-
nately some of the checks had come
in. The bank loses $1,000. The Peo-
Piles Bank of MiddlesborOuSh loses
$4,000 by similar scheme, another
bank there 1900 and a citizen $1,000
on an Endorsement. Other parties
here lost various sums.
The total stealings thus far discov-
cred amount to 5000 or 100000. He
disappeared from here suddenly on
Friday night. His rascality was not
made public until Wednesday and
Thursday. A reward of $3.50 is offered
for his arrest. He is about 49, years
old, and evidently an ex-bank clerk.
He rave his name as.C. L, Patton.

The National Grain Crop,

America stands first on the list OF
wheat-producing countries, and is
greatly in the lead in the production
of corn. As compared with Russia
the crop of the United States is more
than a hundred times greater. In
oats, too, we exceed Russia by nearly
20 per cent. ON the average. The
greater part of the bread of eastern
Europe is made of rye. Russia alone
raises nearly 7OOOOO,OOO bushels of
rye, annually, and the average net
harvest of all cereals in that country
is about 1000, OO0. 900 bushels. The
production Of the United States reaches
annually near 5000, COO, 900 bushels, or
almost three times that of Russia.
Leaving out the enormous production
of corn in this country, and the re-
manning cereals are only about 10O,-
600 600 bushels greater than Russia
the chief advantage being in wheat
and oats. Besides the consumption of
by its own inhabitants, Russia exports
twenty times more of it than the
United States, eighteen times as much
oats, and forty times as much barley.

An Accomplished Jurist.

In the Hon. NJ J. Gordon, who has
recently located in Olympia and be-
come a member Of the law firm OF
Eddy & Gordon, it seems that the
bar OF the state has received an orna-
ment, and that to society has been
added an able, useful citizen. Mr..
Gordon was member of the late
Legislature of South Dakota and
Chairman OF the Judiciary Committee
in the House, and as such was the
leader of that body. Although a
young man he has for some years
been the President OF the Bar Associa-
ton of this State 1t is believed that
we voice the sentiment of our liberal
minded people when We say to Mr..
Gordon, Welcome to Washington
and Olympia.
In this connection we subjoin an
extract from the Aberdeen Republican,
relative to Mr.. Gordon's recent forensic
triumph in South Dakota in a case of
transcendant importance. A physi-
clan was on trial for murder being
charged with having accomplished the
death OF a young girl through the
preparation upon her of a criminal
abortion. Says the Rep utlican: ain
its legal aspects the case was an inter
esting one, and the great forensic bat
tie between Mr.. Ellis, of Iowa, and
our own Gordon" now of Olympia
Washington, will form a memorable
page in the legal annals of Brown
county. 1t was great victory for a
great criminal lawyer"
"By securing verdict OF mot
guilty for DR.. Evans, Hon. NJ. ]. Cor
don places himself at the top round oil
the ladder among such lawyers as
Bill Erwin and DAN voorhees,. II
is acknowledged by lawyers present
that the case was the most skillfully
handled OF any in the history of Grim
inal practice in the State. The
sympathy of the whole community
was with the dead girl and her rela.
tives and friends. Mr.. Gordon over
come all of this prejudice and released
his client. Such victory by SC
young a man puts him alongside oil
the leading criminal lawyers Of the
country. The people Of Dakota can
say to the legal fraternity of Wash
ington, Mr.. Gordon's adopted State,
