Page and the colonel shook hands
cordially. The colonel was a smooth
faced man and there was not the
least indication of beard on his

thirty-fve or forty years old. He
had a very prominent chin, long
sharp nose and pair of piercing
black eyes, and as he talked he had
a habit of looking person 6xedly

eyebrows, while he punched him In
the side to emphasize his remarks.
He wore a broad brimmed blacK

CHICAGO, May 13.-L. L. Ferris & Co.,
wholesale dealers in boots and shoes,
to-day confessed Judgment aggregating
$4,000, and their stock is now in the
hands of the sheriff. The liabilities are
put at $175,000 and the assets are 1926,
600. The strlngency in the money mar
ket was the immediate cause Of COL
lapse. The firm expects to resume
business in short time.
New YORK, May 13.-It is now estl-
mated that the indebtedness Of Francis
W. Weeks, against whom suit was be-
gun yesterday for trust money alleged
to have been missppropriated by him,
will be more than $1,OO000O. William
Nelson Cromwell, Of Sullivan & Crom-
well, attorneys for the Superior Land
and improvement Company, in which
Mr.. Weeks had held the Office Of presi-
dent, secretary and treasurer, said that
the company would lose nothing Of che
$550,O00 that Mr.. Weeks took without
authority Of the company. The attach
ment which Mr.. Cromwell placed on the
West Superior Steel Company amply se-
cured the Land Improvement Company,
as the plant is valued at $2,OO0,OOO. Mr..
Cromwell declared he had beyond ques-
tion pocketed $150,OOO and was an en-
bezzler to that extent at least.
LOUISVILLE, KY, May I'D. M. Law

ties are $4,000; the assets are estimated

been the cause.

Reports Of Commercial Agencies Do Not
Agree With the UnVarnished Facts,
New YORK, May 13-R. G. Dun &
Co.'S weekly review of trade says:
"The smash in Industrial stocks
week ago, the failure of some firms and
Of the National Cordage Co., and the
largest decline in stocks known in any
week since 1873, have been followed by
surprisingly little disturbance. Business
has shown remarkable soundness and
strength under such a strain. Bank
failures at Chicago and Indianapolis and
rumors Of others reflect large losses
through Chicago speculstions in real
estate and grain, and at Indianapolis
through the failure Of the Premier Steel
Co., but commercial credits are not as
yet materially affected. Interior money
markets are growing tighter and more
cautious, but no such stringency is yet
seen as to check general trade, which
appears to have improved"
MILWAUKEE, May 13. An expected
run is being made on the Plankinton
bank, on account of the implication in
the F. A. Lappen failure. The belief is
that the bank will pull through.
The scene around the bank is one Of
activity, but there is no panic, and no in
dication of one. The feeling among
business is one of security. P. d. Ar
mour, of Chicago, one Of the heaviest de-
positors in the bank, is said to have sent
one million IN currency to the institu-
tion by express. The depositors are
being paid as rapidly as they can pre-
sent their claims. The Plsnkinton es-
tate, which is also largely interested in
the bank, is also understood to have
come to the rescue with large amount
Of cash.
LINCOLN, Neb., May 13.-The failure
last night Of Kendall & Smith, grain
dealers, who have been operating fifty
five elevators in Nebraska, Kansas and
Missouri, seems to be bad one. Their
liabilities are said to reach from $780,
600 to 100000. The failure was pre-
cipitsted by the appearance Of L. Eyer
ingham, president of the board of
directors Of the Columbian National
bank, of Chicago, who yesterday de-
msnded payment Of $4,000 claim.
While he was here, the firm filed mort
cages and bills of sale covering their
property in favor of other creditors,
among which were Congdon & Co., Of
Chicago, for $4,000. The assets are un-
known.
MoNRoEvIILE. Ind, May 13. The
Citizens bank Of MonroeYille opened as
usual this morning with the hopes that
depositors would have confidence in
them since they claimed no connection
whatever with the Columbian bank. A
large crowd Of depositors awaited the |
