property to the value of $50, 900, only

the West Fork river, connecting the
hospital with the town, gave way with
a crowd of people and a number of
persons were injured in the fall. Wes-
ton has no fire department., and it was
due to heavy rain coming up that the

FRAUD IN THE REORGANIZA ALTON
Mrs. Griggs of Chicago Sues Partners in
Mining Property

New York, March 81 .-Kittie A
Griggs, wife of Clark Robinson Griggs,
a road contractor, today filed papers
in. the United States circuit court in
suit for $4,000 against John +. Cam
pion, Mason B. Carpenter and Charles
Lavender. The complaint charges the
persons named, comprising the Victo-
ria Gold Mining company. having mines
In Illinois, Mayo Negro and Indian
Clutches, in the state of Colorado, that
they conspired to defraud Mrs Griggs
out OF a three-eighths interest in the
mining property, which is said to be
valued at $500, 1000. The scheme by
which this plan was to be carried out.
the papers assert, was by a system of
mortgaging and reorganization of the
mining company under another name
OF the latter Carpenter, 1t is charged,
had himself elected president and in
tended to place certain employees in
other responsible positions, the new
company thus securing possession Of
valuable property. The papers say
that no return from the transaction was
made to the plaintiff or any one out
side the parties named. It is further
alleged that Carpenter mortgaged the
property without necessity or right
The mortgage was foreclosed and the
mines sold to Campion for $S4,S70 of
which S4.S74 represents overdue taxes.

M'KiNLEY EASILY LEADS.

The Ohio Man Has Nearly 600 of the 37o-
Delegates SO Far Elected.
WASHINGTON, March 50.-Three hun
dred and seventy-fve delegates to the
next national republican convention
have been elected. They appear to be
distributed among the several candi-
dates as follows, care being taken to
accredit to each candidate only uncon-
tested delegates who are instructed or
who have declared in his favor: Nc
Kinley. 1s9; Morton, 60; Allison. 30;
Quay. %: Reed. %; Cullom, 10; unde.
clared, s; total, S41. The "a remaining
delegates are contested, and the vigor
of Maj. McKinley's campaign may the
better be measured by the statement
that of the 81 contested cases McKin-
ley delegate is the contestant or the
contestee in 81 of them. If Mckinley
should maintain anything resembling
the present proportion in the elections
to come, his victory is assured.
