STORY Is that certain employees of the
Northern Pacific Elevator compan of

forged duplicate certificates for grain in
storage IN the country" elevators owned
by the concern. These forged checks
were deposited with Eastern banks as
collateral. About $4,000 was secured
IN New England and the balance in New
York. Some of the Eastern holders of
the paper became suspicious, and on an
investigation being made the true state
Oh AFFAIRS came to light. The ~stockhold-
ers OF the elevator were dumbfounded
when the facts came to their notice
oilers of settlement with the banks
We're at once made and terms OF a COM
promise offered. The company was then
r~eorganized As the Lake Superior Ele-
vator company. The terms offered TO
the banks were go per cent cash, the
remainder TO be paid in FIVE annual pay
ments. The Northern Pacific Elevator
company is now in the hands of a receiv.
er, and the frauds of its employees have
wiped out its existence. Among the
New England banks swindled are near
ly all the State street institutions here,
which were hit heavily; banks at Port
land, Me, and various banks in the
towns about Boston.

t~iculars just received of the burning of
the. house of J.. ii. Langevin, a farmer
living hear Olga, a few days ago, show
it to have been n tie; rible tragedy. Mr..
Langeyin arose in the morning n
started the kitchen fire with kerosene,
after which he hung the can on a nail
in the wall just behind end over the
stove. He then went TO the well for a
pail of water. While drawing the water
he was startled by a noise st the house,
and looking around saw that the kitchen
was full of smoke. Hurrying back he
found that the oil can had fallen on the
stove and broken. The oil ran over the
stove and room and instantly the room
was 4 mass of flames. Mrs. Iangeyln
and the children We're sleeping up stairs.
The Mortified father rushed up through
the flames and awoke them. He told his
wife to drop the children from the win
dow and he would catch them first and
then herself, AS il was not safe for them
TO come down the stairway. Going to
the window outside he found one of the
children which the frantic mother had
already dropped to the ground, but no
signs of the others. Mr.. Langevin
aged in some way to reach the window
from the outside when he found his wife
had tainted with another of the children
in her arms. He dropped both from the
window and tEen turned to find the two
other children, but they Were not up
stairs, and had evidently gone down the
stairway into the burning kitchen. He
faced the flames down stairs until he
was forced to retreat, and jumped from
the upper window. AS the heat of the
fire died away willing hands began the
work of rescuing the bodies of the fated
ones. When the task was accomplished
the bodies were found to be so badly
burned as not to be recognized. Mr.. and
Mrs. Langevin are lying at the point of
death, but there is thought to be a pos
sibility of their recovery.
