About the Viaduct.

Mayor Dempsey and Attorney Len
nard acting for the city have drawn up
a new contract with the Bullen Bridge
Co. whereby the Bullens agree to COM
plete the viaduct within ninety days
from date of contract which was signed
the 22nd, n forfeit of $50 per day to be
made after that time.
The contract calls for the specifica-
tions set forth in the revised plans call
ing for high truss bridge. The order
is already in and the iron will be on the
ground in a couple Of weeks. Engineer
Rodgers OF the d, II. & G. has expressed
himself us being satisfied with tho new
plans and there is nothing in the way
now for speedy construction Of the
viaduct.

The Pueblo Banks.

In interview with officers of the
suspended banks Of Pueblo the INpr-
GATOR learns the following relating to
their actio, in the immediate future:
II. l.. Holden, cashier of the Central
said that the scheme adopted by the
Denver banks would suit the Central
very well. That while the time was
rather long, yet the bank would have
no intention of holding depositors Off
any longer than was necessary to realize
on their securities. Their depositors
will be asked at once to bring in their
pass books and have accounts balanced.
The plan of paying oil in tifths, once
every three months beginning with
March l, 1894, was not decided upon as
yot.
thought the Denver scheme good one
but as yet no proposition had been sub
mitted to depostors. The plan, if
agreed upon by depositors, might be
customers. One good feature would be
that the time given the bank to pay off
accounts would make it easier on those
owing the bank, as notes for collection
would not be pushed SO strenuously.
Cashier Robert Gibson and Assistant
Cashier S. F. Crawford of the American
were not impressed with the plan pro
posed in Denver as published elsewhere
in these columns. The American was
getting in good shape and would be
prepared TO meet their depositors in
very short time.
The Bessemer indicator., 1893-07-29
The Denver Scheme.

The suspended banks of Denver have
hit upon scheme whereby they expect
to be enabled to resume business in a
few days. Depositors are requested to
sign an agreement to the plan and if
enough of them are willing the banks
will issue certificates of deposit as
follows:
First-A certificate for deposit of 20
per cent thereof, payable on March /,
1891.
Second-A certificate for 20 per cent
thereof, payable on June 1891.
Third-A certificate for 20 per cent
thereof, payable on September, 1904.
Fourth-A certificate for 90 per cent
thereof, payable on December |, 1894.
Fifth-A certificate for 20 per cent
thereof, payable on March l, 1895.
Said certificates to bear interest at
the rate of 6 per cent per annum from
July 20, 1893, until paid.
In this way it would be seven months
before the depositors could get any Of
their money and twenty two months be
fore they could get the last of it. De
positors with less than 500, however,
would be paid out in full at once. 1t is
"A good scheme for the banks but an
inconvenient one for the depositors who
would have to wait so long for their
money or else sell their certificates for
cash at discount.

DENVER has disgraced itself by the

DENVER has disgraced itself by the
brutalities attendant upon a lynching.
Tuesday night, Daniel Arata, an
Italian saloon keeper murdered b. Q.
Lightfoot, an old ex-soldier in cold
bleod, and the night following the
murderer was lynchcd by M in
furiated mob. The murder was
horrible and entirely unprovoked,
and if lynch law is justitiable at any
time it was in this instance; but the
fcrocity of the .half-ciyilized mur-
derer was outdonc by the mob that
hanged him then dragged his naked
body through the street and hung it
again all bleeding and muddy and
riddled it with bullets. There is no
pretcxt on which such depravity,
such brutality is juslitiabla among
civilized men. Men would be de-
nounced as brutes were they to use II
mad dog in the sans manner and
the public would shun them as
monsters. Such flendishness does
not belong to this age. Arata no
doubt deserved the extreme penalty
of the law but the barbarity with
which the mob put him to death can
not be justified

TROUBLE WITH A LOAN co.
And Pair of Agents Have Caused
il all.

Anu IL 1iiT ot Agents hive SiuSeu
il all.
Henry p Spencer and Geo. III. Parker
are just now very much talked of men
in Bessemer. The former is vice
president and the latter is secretary and
treasurer of the Colorado branch
of the Continental Investment
and Loan Society of Chicago. These
gentlemen are now in Denver and it is
perhaps well for them that they do not
show up in Bessemer until some of their
customers cool oil little since they
feel that thcy have been victmzed and
are justly indignant.
The monthly wages Of about twenty
five steel workers was attached last
Saturday, the agents operating from
Denver and the mon could not draw
their pay without first paying oil certain
shares in the Continental and the cost
of the attachment. This tho men can
not afford to do since they declare
they have been swindled by the
agents and also TINT tho company re-
fuses to make further loans in tho cit. .
Feeling ran so high among those
whose wages were attached last Satur-
day that it was best for the personal
salty of Agents Spencer and Parker
that they did not show up and the ex-
citoment has not subsidized by any means
Secretary W. p. Swartz of the Bes-
semer branch is disgusted with the
affair and has notified the company to
accept his resignation or replace Mr..
Parker Some of the money in his
hands has been attached by those who
had paid in their shares.
The trouble arose over the fact that
Messrs Spencer and Parker represented
that the first installment paid in by
each, but it subsequently transpired
that it was sort Of initiation fec and
did not pay for the first shares at all.
Then again many entered with the dis
tinct understanding that they were to
secure loans which are now refused
them, the company claiming that the
liquor clause in the deeds to Bessemer
real estate makes loan unsafe since
property could be coniscated were the
restrictive clause violated. or course
the square thing for the agents to do is
to refund the money paid in by mem
bers as the company will not operate
here, but this they manifest no desire
to do, and hence they are roundly cen.
demned by those who have paid in.
The universal opinion is that Agents
Spencer aud Parker wore after the
commission and used deception to secure
members.
A petition headed by such men as
w. II. Anderson, w. p. Swartz, Thomas
and Martin Grow has been forwarded
to headquarters asking for the re-
moval Of Mr.. Parker as state secretary
and treasurer and will no doubt be ef-
fective. The Continental will be obliged
to make good all losses to stockholders
here if it would save it's reputation.
1t is an outrage on those members
who have their money tied up in the G
F. & l. Cos hands by attachment, and
particularly 80 when the loan company
refuses to make lonns on Bessemer
property. The company will no doubt
have the attachments dissolved whom It
learns Of the true facts in the case

Puebl0's Flood.

The heavy flood which inundated
