have been Deynrman's wife, will leave
the Watson will contest far in the
shade. Mrs. Burke comes in with o
marriage certificate and clergyman
to swear to it. When the case came
up to-day the Rev. J. ii. Burnett was
placed on the stand. He swore he was
a Methodist clergyman retired on ac-
count of i'll health, that he united
Hattie burke and Ewing Deyarman in
marriage Aug. =, 1890
One OF the witnesses is brother of
Mrs. Burke.
The attorney for the administrator
asked Mr.. Burnett the following ques-
tions in substance Was there an
order made by the Black River confer
ence in New York in 1866 expelling you
from the ministry and from the me; ho-
dist church? Had CT argos been pre-
ferred against you in the same confer
ence in 1864 and 1868 ? Wers not your
parchments of ordination demanded,
and didn you refuse to surrender
them? We're you not dropped from
the rolls Mt the Wesleyan conference
at Baraboo, Wis, in 1882
To these questions Mr. Burnett re-
piled enIphatically: mo" He said
charges were preferred against him in
the Wesleyan conference of 1873, but
his enemies were routed. He denied
that he had been charged at that C, n
ference with undue intimacy with a
certain woman. Mr.. lurnctt came
from New York in 1866 and from Nc n
roe county to Fan Claire in 1886.
The Rev. John Holt, Methodist

In 1865 Burnett told him he had been
expelled from the Black River con
ference in New York; also that Hot
offered Burnett money to go to Chi
cago to appeal the case to the general
conference, but Burnett did not do so.
Mr. Holt further 'swore that under the
rules of the church Mr.. Burnett had
not been a Methodist clergyman since
1866 Mr., Burnett said on the stand
that he had changed from the MetNo-
dist church to the Wesleyan, and sub
sequently from the Wesleyan back to

ing. 1t did not cause the excitement
which the failure of firm of this
magnitude would ordinarily have done,
because of its anticipation through a
statement published in the New York
Morning Advertiser this morning.
The climax Of the catastrophe has been
approaching elimination for the last
two weeks, but the facts have
been carefully guarded and did not
leak out until yesterday afternoon.
An assignment of the assets, it is
said, were made but not recorded.
The assignment is stated to be due
to an attempt to run a corner in corn.
The rumor of the impending failure
yesterday caused great aston ishment
in the commercial world, coming as 1t
did just at the time of a strong upward
movement in all securities. The vol
TINE of business in railroad
stocks during the last three
days had diverted to some extent
attention from speculation and in
vestments in breadstuffs. Members of
the embarrassed firm had been able to
conceal the real state of their actual
condition without the slightest diff

review of the situation that it was de.
cided to make an assignment for the
