Spring is by common consent the season
for house cleaning and for cleaning up IN
back yards, front yards, and streets. 1t

In view of the fact that cholera may
make its appearance in this country, and
the cause of this and other diseases. such
as diphtheria, typhoid fever and many
others. are closely related to filth of soil,
fowl air, and water contaminated and
spoiled by the surface washlngs from

Some Disclosures In the Sioux City
Failures.
Sioux CITY, Ia, May 1.-Affairs in
connection with the recent failure in
this city commence to partake of very
much of the color of crookedness. Ru-
mors to this effect have been current
for several days, but until now nothing
has been given to the public by persons
authorized to speak. When the Union
Loan and Trust company assigned, its
schedule showed liabilities of $745, ,374
and assets of 81, 1853, 900. In statement
given to the press by Assignee Hubbard
he says:
"lhave not gone far enough tobe able
to make a statement of the exact
amount of the liabilities of the COM
pany, but from various sources I learn
Indefinitely that there are about $6, 900,
600. This includes both direct and in
direct liabilities the latter being on ac-
count of notes endorsed by the COM
pany."
A Sensation Was Created
when Receiver Chesley of the Union
Stockyards company repudiated large
quantity Of paper held against that
company. It was in the shape Of prom
issory notes made payable to the stock
yards company and signed by Ed +.
Hedges, president.
Receiver Chesley said: "Mr. Hedges
signed the notes without authority
from the directors or officers of the
company, and the company's books
show that the money raised by it was
never turned over to the treasurer.
Not cent will be paid on it unless the
courts make us liable. There is knowl-
edge at hand that 81, 700 worth Of this
paper is outstanding."
