Proceedings Begun Before Judge
GlaspeII at Fargo.
FARGO, N. D., Deer 11s-~Disbarmert
proceedings against Attorney Taylor
Crum began in earnest this morning
before Judge Glaspen, of jamestown,
who had been called in preside by
Judge Pollock, to whom the defense OBJ
jected on the ground of prejudice.
The case has attracted unusual at
tention in the state, owing to the pc
culiar conditions surrounding it. The
first diSbarnIent proceedings We're in
stituted in 1892, when Judge Mcconnell
was on the bench. Considera BILE teSti-
mony was taken, but it was never sub
mitted and no final action was taken.
This morning attorneys for the de-
PENDANT made hard fight to have
these former proceedings oVerruled on
the ground that final action had been
taken and that tie matter was stale
and barred by limitation. The prose
cutting committee placed Judge Amidon
and Attorney Newman, members Of
the former committee, on the stand,
to contradict the claims of the defense
overruled. Motions to allow supple
mentary proceedings added to the orig
inal and to have the entire proceed
ings taken in the name of the state
of North Dakota were allowed. A mo-
ton of the defense to strike out part
of the accusations was oVerruled, and
Judge Glaspen asked for further argu-
ments on the demurrer of defense.

der in the second degree. The prisoner

Judge pronounced his life sentence.
Hough wore a gray coat, vest and
black pair of pants. He had on plaid,
soft shirt and wore a striped necktie.

HOUSE INSTITUTIONS OVER SIN
HUNDRED MILLIONS .,.4 49,
UNION PACIFIC DEAL REFLECTED.
Not Much Present Prospect OF a
Higher Level for Money Rates
Heavy Deposits.

NEW YORK, Dec 1.-THE Financier
says: The Union Pacific reorganization
committee last week made an addi-
tional payment of $500, 600 on account,
and this sum, passing into depository
banks, has increased the averages of
the clearing house institutions no less
than $9000,000 in deposits The increase
in loans is connected with the same
transaction, but it has swelled the total
loan item to $6O7, 725, 300, which is by
far the largest ever carried by the
New York banks. The effect of the
transfer of the Union Pacific to the
new purchasers may be traced in the
expansion of the loan item of the banks
during the past five weeks. On Nov.
Is last loans stood at S575 ,000, as
compared with $607, 725, 900 Dec. II. The
loan increase therefore has been over
81, coo, 000 In the same time deposits
have increased 100000 600, and cash re-
serves $S,000,000 Admitting that the
regular mercantile demand for accom-
mediation has had some place in the
change, the main cause contributing to
the enormous increase has been the OPP
Grafton in connection with the Union
Pacific syndicate. The deposits of the
bank most prominent in the financing
of this deal have grown nearly $22,0O0,-
900 in four weeks, and its loans $12,0OO,-
GEO.
The banks have been gaining cash
from the interior for a number of weeks
past but the effect for the reasons just
set forth has been greatly minimized
The rapid expansion in deposits re-
quires each week a heavier reserve,
and the operations of the past six days
have resulted in decrease in the sur
plus cash in banks of So, 235, 525, bring
ing the excess reserve to $18,SS7 ,425, the
lowest since Oct. Is last. That the
changes noted are of special char
acter is also shown in the item of cash,
the loss for the week having been
$1,012,7 00 This shrinkage can be traced
to several large Institutions, one of
which has probably decreased it's cash
through the payment of the Sugar divi-
dend. There will be more or less shift
ing of funds as the first of the year
approaches in anticipation of the heavy
dividend payments and another INSTALL
ment of the Union Pacific money is
also due about that time. The effect
will be to make material changes in
Forthcoming bank statements, but with
the supply of available funds in sight
and the credits held abroad, there does
not seem to be much chance for any
thing like permanently higher level
for money rates. The governments pay
ments of maturing bonds the first Of
the year will release a great deal of
| money now locked in bank vaults as
special deposits.

course, in some cases the catarrh
passes off without doing any perma-
nent injury; but in the majority of in
stances it does not do so. 1t is the
worst kind of folly to neglect cough.
1t is simply suicidal, for which there
is no excuse. This is especially true
when a remedy is in reach of any one,
and a remedy that cures without fail.
Pe-ru-na cures cough by removing the
catarrh, which is the cause Of the

Iron Range Cases.
DULUTH, MINI, Dec. 11.-Attorney
General Childs today began an action
in the district court here to annul the
land grant of the state to the Duluth
& Iron Range railroad. The suit is, be-
gun under the act Of .the Legislature
passed last winter directing him 10
proceed against the company. Some
time before the legislature took action
the railroad transferred the entire land
grant by trust deed to, Walter H, Colt,
of Chica go. 1t is alleged by the state
that this was not a. bora fide trans
fer and was made illegally. The state
claims the original road was to have
been from Duluth to township 6012,
and the land was granted for this, and
that this load was never built The
road now in use, it is alleged, was built
by another corporation which assumed
the powers of the Duluth & Iron
Range. 1t is claimed that subsequent
amendments by the Legislature were
void for various reasons, the principal
one being that they. contained more
