A Minneapolis Failure.

Minneapolis, Jan. 1.-THE American
Savings az Loan association went into
the hands of a receiver to-day, the ap-
plication ITO the court having been made
by Attorney General Childs. Major w.
ID. Hale was named as receiver.
The action was an entire surprise to
the officers of the association, who
knew nothing of the movement until
Receiver Hale. ARMED wsit,h The order of
the court, took possession. The attorney
general was moved 20 action by infor-
nation filed by Bank Examiner Ken
yon. Among the reasons given for the
application were charges chat in 1889
the officers illegally invested 500. 900 In
bhe capital of the German-American
Fire Insurance Company; that the man
agement had been grossly extravaganza
and unbusinesslike and that the laws of
the state governing such associations
had ben repeatedly violated. 1t is
charged that James II. Bishop, presi-
dent, and +. Il. Suonemam, financial
agent. have taen mo steps TO recover

THE NJ. p. CIRCUS.
Receivership Attorneys and Other Inter-
ested Parties state Their Case.

Washington, Jan. 14.-Associate Jus
tices Fheld, Harlan, Brown and Brewer
of the supreme court to-day, in cham
bers, gave a hearing TO attorneys inter
eSted in having the receivership OF the
Northern Pacific railroad consolidated.
The attorneys present were ex-senator
Spooner and Mr.. Turner, representing
the Farmers Loan d Trust company;
Mr.. Pett9t of the railroad company; Jo-
seph Choate of the Adams committee of
bon6holders and Mr.. Cardoza of the
Livingston committee of second mort
gage bondholders. While the arguments
went into the affairs of the railroad i'm
great detail showing its financial comdi-
tiOn and the fact of conflicting views or
present receivers and courts by which
they were appointed. there was practi-
cally but one question before the court.
That was the question of primary juris-
diction. With this matter settled, 1T is
presumed there Will be no difficulty in
agreeing upon one receiver for the road
or set of receivers, who would act har-
ANONYMOUSLY. as they would be appointed
by a court recognized as having pr
mary jurisdiction.
The road passes through the Seventh,
Eighth and Ninth circuits. The receiv-
eTs for the Seventh and Eighth circuits
are now acting in harmony. Spooner
and Turner cOmtended for the recogni-
t,ion of the jurisdiction of the circuit for
the grounds that the proceedings for
a receiver were originally begun in that
court I'm 1898 amid all other courts recog-
niZed this jurisdiction until August,
1895. Ohoate agreed with them upon
this point. Cardoza's argument was for
the recognition of the Minnesota court;
Petitst's for that of the state of Wash
ing'bOn. During his argument. ex-Sena-
tor SpoOner said If the present conda-
tlon of affairs was allowed TO continue,
the road would soon be split i'm two,
and 1T would be necessary 10 operate il
as two separate lines, to the great i'm
jury of all interests He asserted ii
was a matter of but a few days when
a separate organization would be ne
cessary.
Justice Brown suggested Ito Spooner
the possibility of local federal courts re-
fusing to recognize any orders the JUS
tees might promulgate i'm answer to
these petitions. hut Spooner replied he
did not consider this probable. He sug-
gested in case that emergency should
arise. THE Justices might visit the courts
for the purpose of having the orders
entered. While the fact did not develop
In THE proceedings, it is known that all
interested feel If they can prevail upon

mending, 1t would solve the problem.
because they represent almost one-half
Ct the supreme court. Justice Brown
came into the case as a representative
of the Second circuit, where the North
ern Pacific has large property interests.
The hearing was continued until to-
morrow.

LUDWIG'S HARD LUCK
A Man Whom He FavOrs With a
Loan TurDs Against Him.
CHARGED WITH INSANITY
But Subsequently ReIeased-Blodg-
EFT Still Protesting His Innocence
Behind the Bars-Mrs. Fish,
er's lncorrlgible Daughters.

Joseph Ludwig, the old man who was
arrested several days ago on complaint
of one Albert Ginsberg, who charged
him with being insane, was released
from jail yesterday morning on the
order of Judge Mediation, who was
convinced that Ludwig had been
wrongfully accused. 1t appears. ac-
cording to the story told by Ludwig
and his friends, that his arrest was
caused by Ginsberg as a new and novel
method to avoid paying a debt of $40.
Ludwig says he had been employed on
a ranch on which Ginsberg was fore
man, and the latter borrowed $40 from
him. A short time ago Ludwig was
discharged in order to make room for a
friend of Ginsberg and when the old
man learned the reason for his dis
charge he went to the foreman and de-
manded his $40. Ginsberg didn't have
the money and said he didn't intend to
pay IT and Ludwig threatened to make
1t interesting for him if he didn't,
whereupon Ginsberg had him arrested
on the charge of insanity.
Some years ago Ludwig was a man
of some prominence in the Black Hills
country where he held the Office of
sheriff for several years. Attorney
Harvey had known the old man well,
and when he learned of his arrest he
was convinced there was a mistake
somewhere and interested himself in
the matter and secured his release as
stated

of the jail where Witnesses, harmless

mitted the crime on which he was con-
victed. Blodgett had been sentenced to
six months In Jail and to pay a fine of
$500 and costs. The six months will
expire In about two weeks and Ii is
stated that an effort will be made to
secure his release then, either by hav-

from the governor. 1t is also stated
that Blodgett is confident of being re-
