matter Of convenience ito provide way
by which the income bondholders may
also have vote during the period they
derive no income from the securities.
The laws of this company provide that
only stockholders shall have a vote,
but by agreement we have arranged to
allow the income bondholders the
same privilege. When anv question is
to We voted on, there will be a pre-
lininary meeting of beth stockholders
and bondholders something like a
primary meeting at elections. ~ this
meeting stockholders will Gust an in
formal vote, the result of which will
be placed in the hands of the trustee
of the stock and he will cast the for
NAL vote in conformity Herewith.
Mr.. Haynes appeared 10 have little
doubt that the plan Of reorganization
wdll be a success.

of F. H. Day, was found on the road
side near Sycamore grove in East Los
Angeles, bleeding from the neck and
left wrist
He was picked UP and brought to the
receiving hospital, where he stated
that he had been shot and robbed of
$50 by an unknown assailant. Detec-
tives were dispatched in search of the
bold highwayman, but before their re-
turn a neatly dressed man appeared
at the police station, and announced
that he had shot a man and wished to
surrender himself pending an inves1iga-
ton.
The man said his name was Samuel
Holroyd, a miner from Lake City, Colo.
and that he had been here for several
days intending purchasing some min
ing property He identified the in
jured man and said he was a chance
acquaintance who had offered to lead
him to some coal claims near the city.
When III a lonesome locality, Day
struck him on the head with piece of
lead pipe, knowing that he possessed
considerable money, whereupon he shot
him in self-defense, inficting wound
which will in all proba bility prove
fatal.
Holroyds story was confirmed by the
confusion which he exhibited over his
right ear and the indisputable proofs
which he furnished as to his identity.
Day refused to talk, after he found
out that the intended victim had told
the story to the police.

Huntington Talks of the Suits
Against the Receivers.

Oh the suits
Against the Receivers.
New York, June 22.-The World, to-
morrow, will contain an interview
with Mr.. Huntington in regard to the
suits brought against the receivers by
Attorney-General Olney. He says the
suit does not trouble him, and adds:
"Of course, / would rather they had.
not been begun, but ii it came to a
matter of putting out one dollar to
stop them, l would not do it. / saw
the flaming head lines in the paper the
other day: Thirty Years of Crime
It is the habit of newspapers to print
sensational things without strict refer
ence to how much truth there is in
them. But as to the suits. l know all
about them, and there is nothing in
them. For some time back half a
dozen men have been writing to me
and telling me that unless 1 sent for
them and saw them they would tell the
people a number of things they ought
to know. There is one man in st.
Louis who has been particularly active
in this way. l told him that if there
were things the American people
ought to know by all means to go
ahead and tell them. These people
have gone to Mr. Olney, L suppose,
and that take it to be the origin of the
suits. From what l have heard of
him, 1 am sure he would not have COM
menced the suits unless he was con

Wichita, Kan, June 22.-The Arkan-
sas river broke it's banks here tonight.
and a portion of the city is flooded
There is great alarm among the colored
people near the levy, and hundreds OF
them are fleeing. The water tonight is
higher than it has ever been and is
still rising.
A deep swift current is now flowing
over Griswold park and the adjoining
residence portion of the town. The
water is rising rapidly, and another
two feet will send it sweeping down
Main street The lower floors Of many
houses are already under water and
people are excitedly loading their prop
erty into boats.
The great rains of yesterday have
swollen all the streams of this section,
and most of them have broken over
their banks. The farmers have already
suffered an immense loss through the
destruction of their crops and stock.
At midnight, tonight, the water is
higher than it has been since the great
flood of 1887. The body of a, man with
a trunk and a ValiSe floated under the
Douglass avenue bridge a few minutes
ago, and it is supposed the rise caught
him while he was crossing the stream.
The body could not be rescued at that
hour.
Reports have come in from the coun-
try to the effect that many houses are
under water between here and Hut
Crimson, and the loss of stock and
grain is very large.
One farm, six miles north of here,
had 80 hogs swept away and lost six
head Of cattle.
The floating debris that is passing
through here indicates heavy losses to
farmers The stock yards in the city
are completely under water
1t is reported at 1 O'clock this morn
ing (23d) that the water is about to
flow into Lawrence avenue, this city,
The Seventeenth street bridge is in
great danger, and if it colIapses it will
probably cause the destruction of
eleven bridges below it. Reports from
the west say another body of high
water is coming down and the people
are greatly alarmed.

zette has caused a sensation in court
and other circles by announcing. to-
day, that Count Won Kotz, one of the
masters of ceremonies of the imperial
court, was arrested Sunday last on a
most extraordinary charge.
The arrest Of Count Won Kotz is the
result of four years patient police in
vestgation. During all that neriod
members Of the highest aristocracy of
Germany have been in receipt of an
onymous letters and postal cards
These missives, in most instances
were used by the anonymous writer to
MAKE the most indecent personal ac-
cusations either against the persons To
WHOM they were addressed. or against
their intimate friends or relatives
Nothing seemed toe vile for the anonv-
nous letter writer to intimate Of the
object of his venomous attacks. and
the result was that very bitter feel
lngs were caused in many worthy fam
lilies.
Husbands were led to suspect their
wives, fathers learned to doubt their
sons, daughters began to look with
suspicion upon their mothers, lifelong
friends were separated and. in brief
irreparable wrong was done in a erea +

however, the persons who received
chose scandalous communications
placed them in the hands of the police.
After long and patient work they
discovered the source of these despic-
able motives.
On Sunday last, Count Won Kotz. M
on returning from a visit to Schreiper-
shan, Prussia, was arrested in this CITY
by General Won Hahnke, chief of the
emperor's military cabinet and aide
de camp to his majesty, charged with
being the author Of these long series
OF anonymous ISLANDERS.
Shortly after the arrest, upon the
suggestion of General Won Hahnle.
who personally examined the prisoner,
physicians were sent for in order that
Won Kotz's mental condition might be
determined. 1t was shown that the
prisoners father died in an insane
asylum, and the examining physicia ,1s'
opinion was that the son was the VIC

The general opinion seems to be that
as a convenient way out of most ais

IN INSURANCE POLICIES.
Ruling That the Agents Statement
Constituted the Contract.

Cheyenne, Wyo.. June 22.-An important
ruling was made by Judge Riner in the
United. States court here today, ir an in
surance case. A company refused to pay
the claim of Mrs. George B. Henderson,
whose husband was murdered in 1891 near
Lander, on the ground that the policy ex-
cepted death from intentional causes. 1t
was shown that Henderson. who was
manager of a cattle outfit expected to be
killed and ~ook insurance especially TO
provide for his family in case Of his meet
ing death by violence. He did not read
his policy, but relied upon the verb |
statement of the insurance agent that the
policy was all right, and the insurance
would be paid should he be murdered
Judge Riner rules that the agents state
nent constituted the contract, and that
the policy shall be reformed accordingly.
The amount involved is $4,000.
