FAMIN E IN FINLAND.
1t is Feared That Whole ComEluni,
ties Have Persisted.

The famine in North Finland is increas-
ing, and there is movement in Sweden to
renew the subscriptions Of last year for the
aid of the starving Finlanders. Although
the famine is raging in Russian territory,
yet the Firms on account of their old at
tachment to Sweden, look to the Swedes
rather than to the Russians for assistance
Many villages are snowbound, and it is
feared that the sufferingS of the people are
intense, as they have no means OF breaking
through the great drifts On account Of the
weakness OF themselves and of their cattle
1t is feared that whole communities have
persisted, nothing has been heard from
them for number of DAYS.
Owing to the hardness of the Firms it is
hoped, however. that the famine has not
been so destructive of lite as many >ppre-
bend. 1t is believed that the survivors will
abandon the country by wholesale during
the coming spring aud summer and remove
to some part of North America where they
will have better chance to maintain them
selves

exception of looking over the books Of
the Plankinton bank. In this they are
being thwarted by the fact that Will

and is out of the city. A movement is
on foot to have Plankinton ousted as
assignee.

Captain Adams is resting easy under

THE STATES GREAT LOSS.

The loss by fire of the State Uniyers-
ity building ut Vermillion is not merely
local but statewide calamity. The
institution under the able management
of President Mauck had regained its
lost prestige and was on tirmer and
more satisfactory footing than ever
before in it's history. That the loss
will be fully repaired and the institution
kept as near It's former standard as
possible is evidenced by the following
circular sent out Immediately after the
lire by President Mauck:
To the Students-The loss of Univers
ity Hall by fire this morning affords an
occasion for the fullest exercise of YOUR
college spirit" and an exhibition of
that loyalty which have from time. to
time urged US due from you to your
State and its University.
Every student is expected to stand
steadfastly by the institution in this its
day of trial. Let no one entertain the
thought that the University will be
closed. Glasses will meet, without
break, at places designated in notice
to be posted in front of the smoking
ruins.
The hasty preparation of this note
has been frequently Interrupted by
offers of the free use OF rooms, pianos
and furniture inprivate houses, churches,
city-hall and business blocks, and by
calls of citizens Jealous in plans for
reconstruction of the building. 1t is,
however, expected that rooms will be
Immediately provided for all recita-
tions in the two remaining buildings,
so that students can readily pass from
one class to another. Accommodate
will be ample for you anu for all others
who may come.
1t is my particular request that at
tendance at all the exercises of the
University be even more punctual and
regular than under ordinary circum-
stances.
A courageous and united spiriton the
part of the faculty and students will be
a source OF inspiration to those upon
whom will rest the perpleNing duty of
reconstruction.
Let us give concrete illustration of
the familiar statement that q Univer-
sity consists more in the spirit of the
men and women who compose it than in
buildings and ether material equip
mentS

TO FOLLOW REED.
That Appears to Be the Desire of
Many Senators In the Matter of
Quorums.
A Long Discussion Over the Propriety
Of Counting Non. oting Members
Present.
Senator D. B. Hill Among Those Who
Would Like to See 1t Done-The
House.

/ WASHINGTON, Oct. lS.-As soon as
the journal was read, objection to it
was made by Mr.. Dolph (Rep.. Or.) be-
cause on roll calls it did not show the
presence of two senators, Mr.. Allen Of
Nebraska, and Mr.. Kyle of South Da-
kota, although they were in the cham
Der and although he had called atten-
ton to that fact. A discussion imme.
dlately sprung up on this point. Mr..
Dolph pointing out the ridiculous atti-
tude presented by the senate drifting
along in current Of endless debate.
He declared that the committee on
rules ought to present to the senate q
reasonable rule limiting debate; that
the presiding officer should, after a dis
cussion of two or three days, put it to
a vote, and if it were adopted by a
majority of the senate the presiding
officer should put it in force. That was
the only way that the senate could ever
obtain an amendment to the rules.
MIR. Hoar contended that the journal
was absolutely correct.
H.AAs AAAAA SoSA0AC0 budG Gu0r6 was no
reason and no sense in not recording
the presence of a senator who was in
the chamber and would not vote. The
discussion on the question of
order as to the counting of sem
ators present and not responding was
stili-af.er four hours-in progress,
with little promise of an immediate
close. Mr. Gray, although one of the
repeal leaders, made a strong constitu-
tional argument against the lproposi-
tion, and Mr.. Hill then took the floor.
arguing in favor of it.
IN the House.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 1S.-The house
resumed the consideration of the bill
for the Letter control of national banks.
Mr.. Lockwood of New York opposed
the measure, contending that it could
do no good, and might do much evil.
The house agreed that the previous
question should be considered as or.
dered. at o'clock on the bill and amend
nents. and then the floor was parceled
out in very small parcels to various
members. The bill was passed without
revision.

A New York Croker Charged With
Embezzlement.

A New York Broker Charged With
Embezzlement
NEW YORK, OcG William L.
Patton, who recently did business as a
stock broker at No. + Wall street, was
arrested on charge of hypothecating
railway and other securities. and in de-
fault of $4,000 bail was locked up in
Ludlow street Jail. The prisoner is the
senior member of the firm of William
L. Patton & Co.,. which made an as
signment on May 5. William l.. Pat
ton is the silent member of the firm.
The claim Oh which ,he present action
is taken is one for $4,000, due the
Craig estate. According to the as
signee's report, which was filed some
time ago, the liabilities of this firm
amounted to about S7sS,OO0 and the
cash assets to less than $1,000. OF
these liabilities $3.50, 900 represented the
actual loss to the creditors, and of this
latter amount, according to Patton's
alleged confession to his creditors,
$3.50, 900 was transferred to Patton's ac-
count, and lost by him in unsuccessful
spe ulation.
In addition to this $4,000 claim of
the Craig estate. there are. among
others, one of $Go.oOO due William
Duryea. $50 due Robert B. Honey
man, attorney for the creditors; $50. 900
due Judge Potter of Providence, and
$4,000 due s. H. Valentine, retired
lawyer, residing in Forty-seventh

William L. Patton. who is million
aire resident of Orange, N. j., is also
said to have lost $1,000. About $780,
600 worth of the securities were placed
with the bank of the Manhattan COM
pany, and about $50, 900 with the Hol-
land Trust company as collateral on
the loans. Patton is said to have told
his creditors that he first experienced
difficulty in meeting his obligations
during the Barring panic in the sum-
ner of 1891. and that at that time he
first made use of securities that were
left in his care by customers.
