New YORK; stock Market.

New York. December 5.-91'he feature OF
the speculation on the stock exchange to-
day was the attack made on Atrhison,
the weapon being used WAS the ru1nor that
the com pany had failed III It's Negotiations
81 London for a loan OF S2,O00D00 and
that there would be default on January
PRESIDENT Reinhart IL In London aud
wfs rabled. He answered that there was
no truth In the runor, but Il had had It's
effect. Shares. however, were fairly well
held during the afternoon, but the closing
sale vas iik of from last night
The general market vas very quiet and
there were EVIDENCES thai the bears we're
getting in line for acsion Everything
wss done Possible to dspresa the entire
list, and at times the pressure TO sell was
quite pronounced.
The alleged uncertainty as 10 the shape
In which the tariff bill Will pass congress
was made u do service.
After midday speculation became stead-
Ter and a Jraaua' Improvement was be-

A boomerang.

The Cresset of last week accuse the
board of county commissioners OF pay
ing DeGeer $50. so commission on col
Letting S6l8.00 from Frank Holmes for
the county without DeGeer having
performed the service charged for.
Now what are facts? About months
after Mr.. Holmes went out of office, by
an inspection County Attorney De-
Geer discovered that large amount of
fees and fines which had been paid into
that office during the first part of
Holmes term Of Office and which the
law provides shall be paid into the
county treasury, had not been paid
over, but bad been in the possession OF
Holmes and used by him for years
while he was in Office and for about 8
months after he went out of office in
stead of having been paid into the
county treasury as provided by law.
What was the duty of DeGeer as
county attorney under the crcum-
stances, and what did he do? His duty
on making the discovery was to pro
coed Immediately to collect for the
county and this is what he did: He
Immediately got copies of Frank
Holmes official bonds and prepared his
Petition to bring suit in case Holmes
did not pay the money. DeGeer then
went to HOlmes, stated the case to
him and told him lie would have To
commence SUIT unless he paid. Holmes
begged for few days time and promis-
ed to pay, but had not paid at the ex-
plration of week, but promised and
begged some more and wanted time to
look over the books, was still given
time to look over the books and improy-
ed it by getting permission from the
district clerk TO take books into the
court room, where he proceeded 10
make entries in them that as private
citizen he had no right to make.
DeGeer concluding Holmes didn't
have any intention to pay, took his pa
Ders to the district clerk 5 Office to file
and commence suit When Il friend beg
ged for stay until he could see Holmes
and persuade him to pay it, and avoid
a suit. Holmes then, suppose at the
advice Of the CreSset, paid INTO the
treasury $61S of the money he should
have paid or years before.
The law provides that the county at
torney shall receive on all collections
made for the county 5 per cent. com
mission. The old board disallowed
tins claim of DeGeer's ) per cent. com
mission on $GlS. This was the same
board that paid out of the county treas
ury $3.50 for Uncle Dams attorneys in
his contempt case in the supreme court
Didn't DeGeer collect S6ls of Holmes?
or did MI. Holmes pay this voluntarily?
If the latter is true why did he pay ii
at that particular time, and why did he
not pay it sooner?
We got the above facts from DeGeer
who gave them reluctantly and said on
his own account he would say nothing.
He only did so because the motives of
the commissioner were impugned.
