street car maenate, in a curiousIy in
direct, yet vital way with the expIOs-
ion of the Moore brothers speculative
bubble in Diamond Match and n. Y.
Biscuit It is to this effect: When the
financial stringency began to be ser
iOusly felt, the Chicago banks conclud-
ed to call loans from Mr.. Yerkes, who
had a large sum, said to be about So
600, 900, borrowed from them. They did
not doubt his solvency, but could not
help thinking of the S7,O0O.O0O cash he
had recently invested in his L road
projects. the 81, 600, GOO he had put into
a palace on Fifth avenue. and the 81,
100000 additional in telescopes, paint
inSs. and other affairs. His surface road
properties had declined. and the banks
decided to reduce their risk in that
quarter
Imagine their surprise when Mr..
Yerl1es not only objected to reducing
his loan, but asked for 81. 600. 600 more.
" I have no immediate need for the
money and may have no use for it he
said, but a man should make himself
strong in cash in times like these
When the bankers inquired what
collateral he had to offer. he produced
$1,000, 600 registered 4 per cent govern
ment bonds worth $1,000, 900. and told
his financial friends to put the bundle
in at 80 as security for his new loans.
and further fortifcation for his old loans.
Mr.. Yerkes is today the largest indi-
vidual holder of government bonds in
the world. it is said.

to the bond demonstration. Mr.. Yerkes
causually mentioned that as banks
were drawing in their money, he
guessed he would call on the Moore
brothers for Sc. coo 600 he had let them
have on Diamond Match at 100 This
was a transaction the banks did not
know about, nor of the $780, 600 which
he said he had heard they had bor-

and another $5OO,OOO from Sidney A
Kent
These disclosures made the banks
close down on the NOores so sharply

lines of the MoOres, the latter suffered

NO GENERAL AUDITOR.
The Position Heretofore Occupied d by
Mr.. McKibben Has Been Abolished.

The office of auditor of the AtchisOn,
Topeka & Santa F'e Railway company,
made vacant by the death of J. F. H.
McKibben, will be abolished. This will
be in accordance with the economical
system of the new management, and
viii accomplish a saving of several
thousand dollars a year.
The temporary arrangement, as an
nounced in the State Journal of Thurs
day evening, provides that until furth
er notice all reports and cOmmunica-
tions heretofore sent to the auditor will
be addressed to H. @. Whitehead, gen
eraI auditor, at Topeka. The chief Of
fee of the general auditor will cOntin-
ue to be in Chicago.
The permanent arran cement, which
will probably be announced in a few
days will be similar to this temporary
arrangement The four accounting
departments in this city will report di-
rect to General Auditor Whitehead who
will continue his chief office in Chi
cagO. The office of auditor will then
be known as the Topeka office of the
general auditor in charge of the chief
clerk to the general auditor in Topeka.
H. A. Dunn, who has been chief clerk
of this office for several years will con-
tinue in this position.
Under the permanent arrangement
the general books of the company, now
kept in this city, will be transferred to
the chief office of the general auditor
in Chicago. This will necessitate an
increase in Mr.. Whitehead's force, and
it is probable that the men now on this
work in this city will be transferred to

STUDY OF HORSE NATURE.
Something Chief WiImarth Says
About It.

s"We have a great opportunity to
study horse nature said Fire Mar
shal Wilmarth to a State Journal re-
porter.
THE horse which runs between the
other two on the hook and ladder
truck used to be a contrary one. He
was used when there were but two
horses hitched to it.
He knew what was expected of him,
but often times the boys had trouble
with him. But the biggest change has
come over him since the other horse
has been added to the team.
Now he prances along and swings
himself as if he were trying to show
off. Just watch him the next time the
boys make run. He is a princely
animal and is a little larger than the
other two
Since the third horse has been added
to the hook and ladder team the Jeffer-
son street firemen have been making
fast time to fires. When it is consid-
cred that their truck has to respond to
every alarm which is sounded, it can
be seen that it was necessary that the
team be strengthened. The three horses
that pull the truck are well matched
and are magnificent animals

A GENERAL SHAKEUP.
Many of the officers of the Northern
Pacific to Leave.

San Francisco, Aug. ga special
from Tacoma, Wash, says: A general
shake-up among Northern Pacific Off
cials has taken place and eight officers
leave the service September 1. The
most important officers to go are At
torney A. r. Burleigh, new receiver;
G. w. Dickinson, formerly assistant
general superintendent and general
manager under Burleigh; James NJ.
Ashton, formerly western counsel, now
chef counsel for Receiver Burleigh
and Second Vice President c. H. Pres
colt, formerly general manager Of the
Oregon TranscOntinental and Oregon
Railway and Navigation company.
None of these has been reelected.
It is a well known fact that general
officers at St. Paul who have been re-
appointed are hostile to Burleigh,
Dickinson, and Ashton because they
accepted the management of the west
ern twO-thirds of the road, when Judge
Hanford refused to appoint the receiv-
ers named by eastern Judges. Dickin-
son is a brother of General Manager
Dickinson of the Union Pacific. The
other officers who will go out Septem-
Der 1 are Attorney w. o. Chapman,
General Manager Kingley of the North
ern Pacific Coal company, Assistant
Purchasing Agent D. Mason, and As
sistant superintendent of Telegraph
