STOCKHOLDERS TO SETTLE
Frank Frazier's Offer to Pay the
Wichita National Bank Debts
Causes It

Major w. N. Ewing, receiver of the
Wichita National bank arrived here
last night and will appear before Judge
Foster today and ask him for an order
authorizing him to complete a deal he
has made with Frank Frazier of Ell
Dorado on the agreement that Mr..
Frazier will pay all the depositors in
fun for the assets of the bank. The
bank failed three years ago and was in
such bad shape that deposits were Of
fered for so cents on the dallar. The
stockholders got under cover the best
way they could to avoid an assessment.
Property in Wichita has risen in val
ue to such an extent by reason of good
crops and good prospects that the as
sets have materially advanced in value.
This being the case, the stockholders
have come out from behind their wives
and offer to pay all the dePOsitOrs
themselves for the assets. They did
not do so, however, until the deal was
made with Mr.. Frazier. They have
formally protested against the transfer
of the assets to Mr.. Frazier, and it is
to overcome this protest that Major
Ewing wants an order from Judge Fos-
ter confirming the deal he has made
with Fra Zier

SHOULD BE KNIGHTED.
Don NJ. Dickinson's Tribute to the
English Counsel in the Bering


Detroit, Dec. 23.-Don NJ. Dickinson,
senior counsel for the United States. com
menting today on Canadian press reports
concerning the amount of the Bering sea
award, said:
There is no official announcement of
the award, but whatever it may be, the
Canadian newspapers are clearly in err
ror.
THE compromise offer by the Cleve-
land administration in Augut, 1894, was
S425, 900 of principal If the commissioners
have adopted that a basis, as these pa
pers claim, their award must have been
for that amount and interest as claimed,
at per cent, from the date of the seiz-
ures. The total sum would be, on that
basis, over $4,000 If interest is given
only from the date of the compromise on
the basis of the compromise, the award
would be between 500. coo and $60O,O00 So,
you see, if the basis taken by the commits
sioners of principal and added interest is
as stated by the Canadian papers the re-
suit must be far in excess of their guess.
'.But after the defeat of the compro-
mise, the treaty was made under which
this commission on arbitration has been
proceeding In that treaty were includ-
ed large claims, which were not before
the governments on the compromise. As,
for instance, those designated as 'addi>
tionaI claims and the item of Great Brit
aims expenses in the courts
Il show you here the original British
printed schedule of them as presented to
the commissioners. The total, with in
terest, as confidently claimed on the
proofs. and which under the treaty they
were entitled to at present is, to be ac-
curate, 81, ,608 412.5O, and if the award that
has been rendered gives them this, Great
Britain is entitled to congratulations and
her counsel to lxnighthoOds or peerages,
the same as the other counsel received
after the Paris award. The British coun-
sci deserve them for their labors any
way. for ADLER men there are none and
no men ever did better or more laborious
service in any cause"
p Mr. Dickinson declined to state the
actual amount of the award, saying it
must first be given out officially by the
state department at Washington
