FARGO, N. D., Dec. 16.-A dispatch
from Sherbrooke says great excitement
exists there over a failure for $780,
900. In the fall Of 1890 Charles Haltin-
ner came there as a common laborer
from Detroit. Mich. He was penniless;
had to pawn his watch for a pound Of
tobacco. After working around that
fall he rented farm Of j. j. Bugbee, in
the north end of the county. The fol-
lowing winter he went heavily into
debt, buying land, stock and machinery.
The crop Of 1891 was good one, so he
lsllled through all right. Last spring
lie plunged still deeper into debt, buy
irg and renting several sec
tions of land and buying and
selling several hundred head of
horses, his operations extending into
Trail. Grand Forks. Nelson and Griggs
counties. Crops were short this fall,
and he fell very much short OF being
able to meet his obligations. Chattel
mortgages against him aggregate $780,
u00 He had some $4,000 of securities
taken for horses he had sold, which
was mostly deposited with banks as
collateral. About two weeks ago he
went to Fargo and st. Paul trying to
raise $4,000 or $4,000 Oh his securities,

two days there has been great scraw-

SAID TO Be BETTER.
James G. Blaine Jr. Announces
That His Father Has
Improved.
His Physician Refuses to Ans
SWep as to the Invalid'S
Condition.
1t Is Thought There Is No
Danger OF an Immediate
Collapse.
A New Theory as to the
Cause of DR.. Dueeys
Visit.

WASHINGTON, Dec. l6. - There are
many diSquieting reports on the street
this evening in regard to Mr.. Blaine's
condition, but James G. Blaine Jr. an
nounces that his father Is better. Mr..
Blaine's physician refuses to answer as
to whether Mr.. Blaine is better or worse.
AT 2 o'clock this morning there were
only two lights in the Blaine mansion,
one in the back room and the other on
the third floor, which is occupied by the
servants. At 2:30 the gas was bright
on the whole third floor, aud the shad-
ows of the inmates moving round the
rooms could be seen. AT o'clock
the lights are still burning and
the activity of the inmates con-
tinues. 1t was stated at Mr.. Blaine's
house that he was Il little better this
morning than yesterday.
SO far as can be learned today there
has been no material change in the con-
dition of Mr.. Blaine during the past
twenty -four hours. Inquiry at his house
at noon today elected the usual re-
sponse that "Mr. Blaine seems to be
little better today" While the MEM
bers of the family are undoubtedly
Very Much Concerned
at the situation there are no outward
conditions to the effect, and to all ap-
pearances affairs of the house
hold are now moving along as
though nothing unusual was the
matter. Now that Mr.. Blaine's
really precarious state of health is
known TO the public the manifestations
of sympathy for the family have become
quite general and the attendant at the
door is kept busy responding to the
kindly inquiries of the many friends
and admirers of the distinguished
invalid. No information can be OBJ
tanned as to the immediate plans Of the
family beyond the fact that Mr.. Blaine
will be removed to a milder
climate in Southern state as soon as
he RECEIVERS sufficiently from his brOn-
chial troubles to justify his removal.
As has already been stated, it IS
believed that while Mr.. Blaine Is slowly
losing his strength, the progress is so
slow and gentle as to practically pre-
clude the possibility of an immediate
collapse.
DR.. Johnson, Mr.. Blaine's physician,
visited his patient this afternoon at 2
o'clock. and informed the family that
there was slight improvement in Mr..
Blsine's condition since his last visit.
A reporter called at the house at 2:30
o'clock and asked how Mr.. Blaine was
getting along. The attendant retired to
consult q member OF the family, and, re-
turning said that MIR. Blaine is q little
better this afternoon"

iOus education of the child. or
to endanger its religious faith, Mgr.
Satolli demands that Catholics, as far as
circumstances warrant, maintain special
Catholic schools: but he shows plainly
the willingness of the church to do her

1T is most plain by this time to the
American people, so that he who runs

American republic and Of Ameri-

1t is absurd to suppose that the arch

they make room for all explanations

Progress OF the Case Yesterday

Special to the Globe.
HELENA, Mont, Dec. 16.-The attor-
neys for the Democrats in the Box
Elder case today filed their answer in
the supreme court to the writ of man
date asked for by the Republicans. The
answer is complete statement of the
Democratic position. In it the attorneys
aliege that DO returns were received by
the board of canvasSerS from Box Elder
precinct, as required by law; that the
pretended returns from that precinct
did not purport to be the returns from
any precinct whatever; did not state
either the day, month or year the eiec-
tion was held, nor the number
OF votes received by any person;
that the returns were not, certified
by the clerks Of election, nor
signed by the judges; that
it was impossible for the county can
vassers to determine from the pretended
returns the number of votes cast for
Leech or Hamilton. The answer also
alleges that the board of canvassers
was perfectly familiar with the list of
names returned as voting at Box Elder
precinct, and that an inspection of the
registration list showed that eight
did not appear on the registration list;
that twenty-five persons voting at Box
Elder were half-breeds, eight being
subjects of, Queen Victoria, and that
the remainder of those voting at Box
Elder were not citizens of Montana.
The attorneys for the Republicans
made brief answer to the above. One
Of the Democratic attorneys was en-
gagged in case in another court, and his
associate asked until tomorrow to begin
the arguments. This was denied, how
ever. and then the case was left with
the Judges. A decision is expected to-
morrow. County Attorney Tattan has
filed complaints against John Henry, re-
cent registrar agent. and David Cowan,
a merchant at Box Elder, charging them
with completely in the illegal register
