THE LLOYD CASE.
Further Proceedings Likely to
Be Dropped at the May
Term.
The United States Grand Jury
Indicts Two Bank
Presidents.
Breakup fastened BY Rains,
Commissioners Take Pre-
cautionary Measures.

The May term OF tho United States
court st Fargo viii b known = the
national bankers term," owing to the
number Of bank cases expected to be
tried or disposed Of ct that time. The
term il likely 70 b Of unusual interest
and there may b several sensational
developments arising from recent indict'
ments of bank officers ct Bismarck. II
il stated that among the Gases to be dis
posed Of will be tho long pending indict-
ment against Wm. Lloyd, the demurrer
to which has never been argued. Dls.
trict Attorney Bangs states that it is
expected this case will be finally dis
posed Of by instructions Of some definite
kind from the attorney general Of the
United States. The district attorney
also intimated that the case against
Lloyd would be dismissed, On the
grounds OF some sort of compromise OF
agreement made with the government in
return for certain information and SER
vices rendered by the defendant to the
receiver, whereby certain collections
we're made possible. This result IT the
case has been generally expected al
though no official notice Of the same haa
yet been made.

Predicts Floods.

Charles Oavllesr. the oldest timer in
the Red River valley, who was at Penn
back IN 1850. contributes IN interesting
article to the Pembins Pioneer Express
on the probability Of food in the valley
this spring. He ssys the floods in 1852
and 1861 were caused by depth Of SNOW
LEES than there is row on the ground. the
spring being late and the snow melting
on both sides Of the river at once, and
going OF with the aid of heavy rains.
The entire country from Fergus Falls to
Lake Winnipeg was lake, and at Penn
bins dry land was not seen for five weeks.
With the same conditions this spring, he
looks for food which may approach
that one, and advises every one on the
low lands to prepare for itby getting
together enough to last for some days,
and prepare to make quick move to the
second story OF their houses. II this
disaster is repeated this year, the James
River country will agaiu demonstrate it's
adaptability for the safest and best all
round agricultural and farm portion of
the state.
