Sweat on Thursday, as booked.
Judge S. c. Atkinson, of counsel for
the Bunkley heirs, informed TIMES
man last night that the hearing would
not occur on that day. Judge Akin
son would say nothing further in re-
gard to the case, and in reply to a
question as to the decision of Mon
day nights conference, said that there
was nothing in it for publication.
1t is believed that some agreement
was reached at the conference, and
that the matter will be happily ad-
justed without further process of the
courts.

WHERE DID IT COME FROM !?

 Even those few thousands are now be- ing returned to those who sent them the promoters not daring to go to all lotment upon them in view of the threats of legal proceedings.
 Concurrently with this bribing by adver- tisements it is the custom of certain jour nals, more particularly the London finan- clal newspapers, to charge for the inser- tion of reports of the public meetings of mining and industrial companies so that it is now almost impossible for even the soundest concern to obtain publicity for its proceedings without paying for it. The financial newspapers do not care a rap whether the company is honest or a swindle provided so many pounds per column is paid for the reports of it's meet ings, which often, as seen, are composed merely of seven shareholders which the law says must be present to constitute legal meeting, and these seven may be the actual promoters of the concern. The other day one of the leading financial newspapers contained about fifty col umns of reports of company meetings and 1t may be safely estimated that the pay ment for these reports aggregated f50O.

INTO LAKE MICHIGAN
Plunged vice-President Hammond of the Wrecked National Bank of Illinois
 to Hide His Disgrace.

Hammond, who was second yice-president of the failed National Bank of Illinois, went from his Evanston home partly dressed and evidently demented. in the gloomy darkness and wind-swept rain about ? o'clock this morning and leaving a trail of torn and twisted private papers in his path, sought the Dempster street pier from which hee threw himself into the icy water of Lake Michigan, to obtain relief from he troubles which have piled upon him in the past two weeks The body was found shortly after noon by two boys at the foot of Church street whither 1t had been carried by the under tow. It was taken to the morgue and an inquest was held.a
 Ten days ago a local morning paper published Q sensational and lengthy att tack upon Mir. Hammond's honesty as an officer of the Bank of Illinois. It direct- ly accused him of wrecking the institu- ton, of playing the role of "kiter," of speeula4ing with other peoples money, of practicihg carefully planned deception on his fellow directors and the deposit CTS for years and of sealing the lips of President Schneider by allowing the &C., counts of Weiss and Berger, sons-in-laws of the president, to pass safe bounds. This paper alleged: "He has violated, wilfully and deliberately the law which is supposed to protect the public from the operations of such as he"
 Referring to these charges friends of MT. Hammond united in declaring that they had driven him to his death
