In addressing the democratic state
convention Of Iowa, cX-GOvcrnOr llOr-
ace BOics declared that in order to
win, the democracy mast drop tho
silver issue. With Iowa democrats
following the golden trail, with the
middle west cooperating with the
Atlantic and Pacific seaboardS, with
but few silver democrats out Of sight
of the Rocky Mountains, little wonder
that the party in this state is like
the man that had a bear by the tail
trying to let go.--Inter Mountain.

PASADENA, Nov. 2.-(OGice of The

by the Hon. Lafayette Pence of Colorado in

dates. T. o. Toland, candidate for the

appoint a single deputy sheriff in this coun-
ty. Frank Cooper was introduced and re-

SENSATIONAL CHARGES
GEN. n. 81. SHERMAN ACCUSED
OF BANK WRECKNo
A SAN FRANCISCO STORY
Questionable Schemes by Which Loans
Were Secured From the Peoples
Home and Pacific Banks

The wrecking of the Pacific Bank and
the Peoples Home Savings Bank, common
ly known as the Mcdonald banks" at San
Francisco, something over five years ago
is again brought into prominence by start
ling article published in the San francisco
Call of yesterday. The most appalling and
extraordinary charges are made to the et-
feet that the bank were wrecked through a
deliberate conspiracy by which hundreds
of thousands of dollars belonging to the
depositors of the two banks were diverted
to the uses of the conspirators under fraud
ulent devices.
The Pacific Bank and the Peoples Home
Bank were managed by DR.. r. H. Melon
aid and his two sons, r. II. Mcdonald, Jr.,
and Frank Mcdonald. 1t was asserted after
the wrecking that DR.. Mcdonald had been
made the dupe of his sons, but the Call
article declares in so many words that the
father was equally guilty with his sons and
that as long as year and half before the
crash came DR.. Mcdonald had a hand in the
alleged wrongful manipulation of the banks
funds.
But this is not the most extraordinary part
of the startling allegations set forth in the
article. The Call declares that there was
an organized conspiracy, led by General
M. Fl. Sherman of Los Angeles, to secure
the funds of the two banks upon worthless
securities; that the following named men,
"and many others" were associated with
Sherman in his enterprises: d. S. Dorm, A.

F. Johns, w. H. Eastland, O. T. Dyer. These
men are accused of encouraging inducing
caJoling and threatening the McDonalds
and their bank on to financial ruin and
personal dishonor"
General Sherman is accused Of organic
ing phantom electric railway in Phoe
nix, Ariz., "and the NIcDonads," the art
icle says, gin exchange for the money Of
their depositors took the worthless bonds. .
Then came another alleged scheme, the Phoe
nix Water Works, on which $4,000 in
bonds were taken by the McDonalds as Sc
curity. The Alaska Coal Company, the
Cotton Marble Works are mentioned among
"a dozen other enterprises" by which
money was secured from the bank. d. S.
Dorm, San Francisco lawyer, was attorney
for the bank and drafted the legal papers
for all the enterprises. A. +. Johns was
the confidential agent of the Pacific Bank,
and is asserted in the article to have been
ony and the MADEIRA enterprise, "two dis
astrouss speculations, into which the Pacific
Bank had been drawn" O. r. Dyer was
manager of the Riverside Banking Company.
and it is asserted that at one time he owed
the two banks over 100000. AT the time
of the wreck the sum had been reduced to
$lS5000. The John Brown Colony repre-
sented total loss to the Pacific Bank of
over 100000.
Both banks were absolutely controlled by
the Mcdonald family.
The Call article, which is very lengthy, is
made up entirely of general charges which
are, however. stated in the most positive
terms. Proof is lacking, but the paper says
it will back up what it SAYS with the most
conclusive documents and testimony The
public will doubtless wait for these before
reaching a conclusion. General Sherman has
