PLAIN CASE OF BORROW.
Adam Lapp Causes Some Excitement
in His Household,

Adam Lapp, of 719 st. Peter street,
started out last Saturday to pay debt
with some money he had borrowed
from his wife for that express purpose.
Failing to return himself, and also
failing to return the sum Of $100, which
Mrs. Lapp insists is due her, she called
at the county attorneys office yester-
day, and stated her case.
According to Mrs. Lapp's story, her
husband told her that he was indebted
to certain secret order, to which he
belonged, in the sum of 5000, and that
he must pay the amount to S. c. Ohm
stead, an attorney. Mrs Lapp let Mr..
Lapp have a promissory note for 5000,
payable to her. the note being signed by
a responsible physician. The last she
saw of her husband was on Saturday,
when he started out to pay his debt.
Alarmed at his failure to return, Mrs
Lapp consulted Mr.. Olmstead on Mon
day, and discovered that her husbands S
Indebtedness was only $100, and that
he had received from Mr. Olmstead in
exchange for the note, the sum of Sill,
the additional $11 being the interest
The assistant county attorney made
the necessary memorandum upon
which to issue a warrant. But when
Mrs. Lapp returned to her home, who
should appear early in the evening but
her missing husband.
This does not seem, however, to have
helped matters materially. When a re-
porter for the Glob called at the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. Lapp last night,
Mrs. Lapp was still in trouble. True,
her husband had come home, but she
had as yet seen nothing of the money
To make matters still more unpleas-
ant, a delegation from the Modern
Woodmen had call ito see.' Mrs. Lapp
said that she and Mr.. -Lapp had been
married for over year. He was her
second husband. The $211 was all the
money she had left out of 81, 400 she
had received from Germany. She ex-
planned that she had deposited $1,000 in
the Germania bank. Mr.. Lapp was
asked for his version of the affair. He
finally declared that he had borrowed
5000 from his wife, and that was all
there was to it. He would pay it back
as soon as possible. Asked what or
ders he was a member of, he replied:
Il belong to the Modern Woodmen
and Sons of Hermann, but 1 won't be-
long to either of them tomorrow"

TWO RANK DECISIONS.
Both Against the Assignee of an
InsOIvent Concern.

REDWOOD FALLS, Mimi, Oct. r.
Two decisions of more than ordinary
interest to those connected with in
solvent banks have just been filed by
Judge Webber, of this district A short
time before the Citizens bank, of this
city, closed it's doors, in 1895, H. @.
Schmahl, the sole surviving partner
OF the firm of c. A. Francois q Co.,
which concern did an extensive busi-
ness with the bank, requested of the
cashier that the latter put up a GER
tain amount of collateral to insure the
payment of the funds of the firm that
might be in the bank from time to
time. The cashier, accordingly, turned
over 81, ,647.24 in notes for that purpose
and when the bank failed the firm had
about $500 in the Institution. The firm
at once commenced realizing on the
notes to make the account good, and
suit was Immediately brought by the
Northern Trust company, as assignee,
asking that the firm turn over the
notes, or their value. Judge Webber
holds that the pledge of the bank was
valid, and orders judgment, with costs,
against the assignee of the bank
The other case was that of Sylvester
Davis against the assignee of the
benk. On Jan. 26, 1895, Mr.. Davis had
$1,995 on deposit there, and he secured
collateral note pledges from Mr. Tur-
rell, to the amount cS S1,67110 and in
teTest on them. Instead of putting the
notes in his pocket Mr.. Davis allowed
Mr.. Turrell to place the notes in an
envelope, mark the same Private Pa
pers for Mr. Davis" and place them in
the bank vault. When the bank sus-

"BULLI0N AS A BASIS"
Ex-Gov. Boies Repudfates the Chi
ca&N Platform

DIES MONIES, Oct. 12- Ex-Gov.
Boies has written a letter to the Lead
er upon the subject of Bullion AS a
Basis of National Currency" At the
outset he asks the questions, Gold and
silver bullion for money; is 1t prac-
ticable? Can they be made an invari-
able double standard for the measure
ment of values % He answers these
questions in the affirmative, and says
that Mr. Window suggested the basis
of the plan which he elaborates. He
concludes his letter thus: "It is said
no plan of that character would be in
accord with the Chicago platform.
That is true. But the Chicago plat
form has had it's day in court before
the tribunal of last resort. Must Dem
ocrats to be loyal adhere to it forever?
The objection is at variance with the
whole theory of our form of govern
ment. If valid election would settle
nothing, majorities would cease to rule,
and when a political issue was once
Joined the warfare over it would go on
until one or the other of the parties to
it was totally annihilated."

TASTE OF CITY LIFE.
Joseph johnson, From the Country,
Has a Lively Night.

Joseph Johnson, young harvest
hand, who has just arrived in town
from North Dakota, experienced a
phase of life in st. Paul at the Palm
Garden saloon last night. In other
words, Mr.. Johnson ran against trio
of young men who assaulted him with
out cause, as he thought, because he
had never seen them before in his life.
He had gone into the closet, when
three men, who had followed close be-
hind him, entered and the first thing
Johnson knew, he says, one of them
struck him in the mouth. Before he
could express his surprise, another
man hit him in the nose, while third
grabbed his coat and spread it open.
But Johnson is a husky lad of twenty
two, and quickly pushing the men
aside, he rushed out of the closet,
dragging two of his assailants with
him. Then Johnson became the ag-
gressor and went after the others. In
an instant the whole place was in an
uproar The walters attempted to stop
the fight while some one went after
a policeman. They found one in the
person of Officer Carey, who lost no
time in arriving on the scene. He at
once put a stop to the row, and placed
Johnsons assailants under arrest.
Johnson also enjoyed a ride to the CEN
trail station, as it was thought best to
detain him as witness.
The men who assaulted Johnson are
all over thirty years of age. They
gave the following names: F. w. Rog-
ers, c. Winston and Mike Peterson, and
said they were laborers. officer Carey
charged them with disorderly conduct
Johnson is an awkward country lad
Of the most unsophisticated type. He
says his home is in Keeler, Grant coun-
ty, Wis, but that he came to st. Paul
yesterday from Bartlett, N. D., where
he has been at work harvesting. His
story of what happened, as he told 1t.
is substantially as related. He said
that he was sitting at table drinking
with friend, and that he did not at
the time see the men who afterwards
assaulted him. He and his friend went
to the closet and the door had hardly
closed on them before somebody else
entered, and the miX-up followed.
Asked If he had any money with him,
Johnson said he had some small
change in his trousers pocket, and $50
in his overalls, most of which was still
there. The prisoners were all released
on bail. They say the scrimmage was
half playful and grew out of an argu-
ment started over card one of the
five carried.

No Trace of Feeling Betrayed by
the Prisoner While Telling
His Bloody Tale.

Special to the Globe.
OWATONNA, Mimi, Oct 12.-Leigh
Hough, the accused murderer of Jo-
seph M. Clark, travelling peddler.
confessed his guilt last night in the
residence of Sheriff Barncard, in this
city The boy, he is only nineteen
years old, having made up his mind
tc make a clean breast of everything,
was brought to the sitting room. Here
he related in the presence of Sheriff
Barncard Officers John Thorson and
M. A. McAndrews, E. K. Whiting and
Miss Winnie Barncard the tale of his
deed. His story was drawn UP in legal
form and signed by the prisoner and
the witnesses of his confession. The
prisoner, when brought into the room
from his CELL appeared in no wise trou-
bled. A smile of indifference was plain
ly to be seen upon his face. He made
the statement confessing his guilt and
signed it without the least show of re-
morse:
Il went up town Saturday night to
the Gedney restaurant at 6:20 o'clock
to get a lunch, and then went on up
town." he said in his confession. 81

at II 40 O'Clock. The lantern was light

the wagon. Before this I got ham

RACINE, Wis, Oct. IA deal has
just been consummated, transferring

of Eastern capitalists The purchase

afternoon a telegram came from
Charles B. Lee, who is on his way home

A meeting was held last night and the
Eastern capitalists were represented by
John T. Fish, of Milwaukee. Thomas

and the transfer was made. For a long
time there has been considerable dis
cord among the stockholders and sew

their interest at $4,000,0 900, but accepted
