from Justice.
KANSAS CITY, Mo, Aug. as.-Kansas
has produced young Napoleon OF
hnance who ranks well up ~nh Ives
~ the person of L. NJ. Donaldson,
Daillter and spcculator of Marion. He
was president of The Union Trust Co.
OF Sioux City, ID, which failed June
2S, and of the Marion national hank.
winch was closed by d special exam
iner last week. Developments yester-
day show that Donaldson has fed the
country and Is probably in Mexico, 70
defaulter to the amount of at least
S6O0,COO. He is believed .o have most
OF this money with him. The shortage
at tho Marion bank is only p, 600.
The bulk of ponalson's ill-gotten gains
has come from eusterp capitalists and
the people of western Iowa.
Donaldson was school teacher at
Marion, but during the real estate
boom from 1885 to 1886 he branchcd out
in real estate and made considerable
money. In 1888 he organized chain
OF banks IN Kansas, but they all went
to the wall save the Marion institu-
tion.
When the bottom dropped ont of the
boom he removed to Iowa. and in 1888
organized the Union Trust Go. It's
stockholders wGfF eastern capita lists
who had been holders n stock in the
Kansas concerns and had II trans
ferred, and Iowa people who had been
ropcd in by the showing made. The
main object was to loan money to cat
tlcmcn. Donaldson established chain
of eleven banks at different towns in
Iowa, He was the president of each
and was the sole head of the trust COM
pany.
Assignee Doty, of the suspended con-
Germs, was here yesterday and says in
all the banks and trust company not
dollars worth of assets has been
found. lie says Donaldson got away
with at least s6O0,O 900.
Donaldson opened an Office here last
November and by June was engaged
in getting away with assets of the
Iowa concerns. He raised tens of
thousands of dollars in the east, said
to be secured by herds of cattle that
never existed.
a warrant has been issued and an
officer put on his trail.
Donaldson left Marion the day the
bank examiner put in an appearance
and is supposed to be in Mexico
Examiner Maxwell has found evi-
dence of crooked transactions on the
part of Donaldson. One of his favorite
practices was to obtain notes for con-
siderable amounts from persons who
had absolutely no property. He would
pay them a few dollars for signing the
notes, cash them at the bank. and put
the money in his pocket. Donaldson
is only IS years old.

A CHICAGO MYSTERY.
The Tragic Death of G. NJ. Hammeai, of

CHICAGO. Aug, 22.-Considerable mys-
terry surrounds the tragic death of C.
NJ. Hammeal, OF Plainfeld, n. j., who
committed suicide by shooting in the
head with revolver, death resulting
almost instantly. An examination of
his clothing was made and sew
eral letters were found which
indicated that the unfortunate man
had left his home under cloud and
was in momentary fear Of being killed
by some one whom he had wronged
The authorities at Plainfield have been
communicated with concerning his
death, and the police are awaiting ar
answer which will probably clear up
the mystery surrounding the case.

to all sub-treasuries to pay out gold

to practically place the gold reserve

ing slightly below s1Oo,OOo,0OO. The
net treasury balance is sl1,7oo, 900.
Receipts continue light and expenses
heavy, so that before the month of Au-
