PLACING The CHARTER.
The Merchants Want 1t at the Head
of the Ballots.

The Merchants Want 1t at the Head
of the Ballots.
Several days ago the officials OF the
Merchants Association wrote to the Elec-
ton Commissioners and the Registrar of
Voters stating that in order to have as
com plete a vote as possible upon the
adoption of the new charter that this sub
ject be placed at the head of the NUM-
cipal election ballots. The idea in this is
that the voters give the greatest attention
to such Offices and subjects as are given
the first places on the ticket.
A committee was appointed to see the
commissioners and secure this concession
if possible.
Registrar Hinton yesterday sent an
answer to the letter. After stating that
the board had considered the matter he
said:
The question whether or not the Board OF
Election Commissioners has any right to ar
range the ticket was raised. Pending legal In
vestigation the matter was made the special
order for Monday, June %, 1896, at 10 A. NJ,
and the Registrar was instructed to notify you
that your committee is invited to be present
at that time
The association will have its full COM
mittee present when the subject is taken

acquired by either was to go into the COM
mon fund, except in certain specified cases
which he had enumerated.
. At 1880 an ad iournment was taken until
2 o'clock, when plaintiffs attorney re-
sumed his argument Only two or three
of the defendants attorneys returned after
lunch, and Mr.. Koscialowski was allowed
to proceed without interruption.
His main efforts during the afternoon
were directed toward the proposition that
at general law, where the community
theory is in vogue, any property acquired
by either party during coverture Is pre-
sumed to be community property, and
the onus is on those claiming 1t as sepa-
rate property to prove it. He also directed
some attention to the proposition that at
Mexican law the husband, upon the death
OF the wife. held her property IN trust Tor
the children, and he and those claiming
under him could be made to account Tor
the trust property.
After about an hour of the afternoon
session had been consumed koscialowskl
began to give evidence of having ex-
hausted his arsenal. After fumbling
about his books for few minutes he
started to again exploit the colonization
laws of 1924 and 1923. Judge Sanderson
called his attention to the fact that this
ground had all been gone over number
of times.
Koscialowski said he merely wished to
resume, but Judge Sanderson didn't wish
any resume. The attorney then said their
contention was that Noe had no right to
convey the land.
81 understand your contention per-
fectly," said his Honor, and the plaintiffs
rested
This case has all along had habit OF
reaching climaxes at unexpected moments,
and Koscialowski's closing, two hours
after he had announced he would require
six hours more, was not the least surpris-
ing. Judge Sanderson asked Franklin X.
Lane to proceed for the defense, but Mr..
Lane had expected at least another day to
prepare and had not his reports properly
marshaled for the fray. He requested
that the case go over, and as Mr.. koscia-
lowski also expressed some WEAKNESS, the
Judge consented.
He stated that to-day he would hear Mr..
Lane, who promised to finish in two hours,
and Judge McKinstry. who desired only
about twenty minutes. Other attorneys,
who wish to make supplemental argu-
ment, he said, must do SO on briefs to be
served on Mr.. Kosc1alowski. The latter
would then be allowed to answer.

A GOOD SHOWING.
Depositors of the Changers Bank to
Get Their Money.

the NrranReTS' Dank TO
Get Their Money.
When the Changers Bank closed its
doors on the 18th of last January it had,
in round figures, about $3.50 900 of money
due to its oepositors. The bank had q
capital of $1.000.000 paid up, besides a
very comfortable surplus, and its suspen-
sion was quite unexpected, and created a
good deal of CONSERVATION in mercantile
circles. The failure was owing to bad
management, immense sums having been
loaned on growing crops and upon lands
in the interior. Over-advances upon grain
explained where much of the banks
money had gone, and for time it looked
as though the failure would be disas-
trous one. The bank examiners, after a
close examination of the assets, struck off
at one lick no less than $500, 900, leaving
$500 600 assets of all kinds in which to pay
the depositors and reimburse the million
paid Ill by the stockholders. A. MuenteI
was given control on the 14th of January,
and yesterday made statement of the
condition of the bank. 1t appears that of
the quarter of a million owed to the de-
posltors over so per cent has been paid,
leaving the liabilities at the present time
about $4,000. The bank has assets of a
face value of 1898 600 ana over, and Mr..
Muenter estimates that within the next
four months ali current liabilities will be
paid and balance of 500, 600, or $40 a
share, be available to distribute among
the stockholders. Vigorous efforts are
being made to realize upon the assets, and
IL most instances the property upon
which loans have been made has been as
signed 10 the bank, and upon this collat-
eral enough has been promised to pay all
deposltors and to practically close the
bank 8 affairs
