THE KAssoN CASE
The Alleged Son Disowned by His
Mother

STOCKTON, March 23-There was a
bombshell In the Kasson estate case this
afternoon which at this writing seems to
settle the controversy. The suit is brought
by an alleged son and an alleged daughter
of old man Kasson, who was a wealthy
pioneer farmer of the West Side In this
country and left an estate worth upwards
of $15O,0OO. The defense called the former
Mrs. Kasson to the stand as witness. She
swore that she was the wife of Kasson and
last saw him in 1851 when he visited her
in st. Louis She swore that she never had
a child by Kasson, but was married before
and had one child who died. The old lady
said that she was divorced from Kasson,
she thought, but she was not cross-exam-
tned because she was Ill and will be called
again.

Alger gave General Flagler a liberal
additional allotment from the appropri-

obtained either from General Flagler or
from the secretary's office as to its
amount. The sum must be a very con-

yesterday OF Cashier Hopkins Of the
Peoples bank. the official statement
that the bank would remain closed
pending an examination of its affairs.
and the assignment made by the Guar
anteers Finance company. has caused
considerable agitation In financial cir
cles. The Guaranteers company and
the Peoples bank had close business re-
lations. and IL is learned that the bank
Is a creditor OF the Finance company for
over $500. .000 and that the securities
given are practically worthless. The
loan was obtained from Cashier Hop
kins by Richard Loper, general man.
ager OF the Finance company.
A gentleman closely connected with
the institution stated that the liabili-
ties OF the bank are about 81. 500. 900. He
expressed the belief that the bank is
solvent. The bank was Incorporated
under the state laws in 1870. and was
rechartered In 1890. II has carried heavy
deposits OF state funds, the states de-
posit being at present s505.000. 1t was
reported on the street today that Mr..
Hopkins. the dead cashier. was the
fiduciary agent of United States Senn-
tor Quay. and attended to all his money
affairs. both In political and personal
matters. IL is also said that Mr.. Hop
kins handled the money of the repub-
lican state committee.
This is the second time within a few
months that the state funds have been
tied up by the failure OF "A bank. the

A FEW P0PuLISTS BOLT
A Ringing Platform Adoptod Docanrlng
for the Free and Unlimited Coanago
OF Silver at the Ratio a
Sixteen to One.

Portland. Ore, March 25.-The 1oaue
conference committee from the popu-
list, democratic and free silver republ1-
can state conventions to-day unani-
mousiy agreed upon a platform which
was reported to the respective conveu-
tions and adopted. When the vote
adopting the platform was announced
in the populist convention. Is middle
of-the-road delegates left the hall TIE
platform demands:
THE free and unrestricted coinage Of
silver and gold at the present legal ra-
tio OF 1s to I. without waiting for the
consent OF foreign nations, and unal-
terably opposed to the financial policy
of the present republican administra-
tion. and especially denounces the
avowed attempt to fasten the country
irrevocably and forever to the single
gold standard.
"A national money. safe and sound,
issued by the general government only,
without the intervention of banks Of
issue. to be a full legal tender for all
debts. public and private: also a Just,
equitable and efficient means Of dis
tribution direct to the people through
the lawful disbursements Of the gov
ernment."
1t demands that the volume of circu-
lating medium be speedily increased to
an amount sufficient to meet the de-
mands of the business and population
of this country. and to restore the Just
level of prices of labor and the pro-
ducer. The platform favors such legis-
lation as will prevent for the future
the decentralization Of any kind Of legal
tender money by private contract. and
demands that the government, in pay
ment OF its obligations. shall use it's
option as to the kind of lawful money
in which they are to be paid. and de-
nounces the present and preceding ad-
ministrations for surrendering their op-
tion to the holders of government obli-
cations.
II further demands that there shall
be no further issue Of United States
interest-bearing bonds: that postal
savings banks be established by the
government. and that United States
senators be elected by direct vote Of
the people. The platform finally de-
mands the initiative and referendum
system of lawmaking in its optional
form. and condemns as dangerous and
unjust the surrender in all departments
OF the government to the influence of
trusts. corporations and aggregations
of wealth generally. and the packing OF
the highest courts OF the land with
corporation lawyers.
on the taxation of corporation prop
erty. which caused the split in the pop
ulist convention. the platform says:
''Inasmuch as railroad and other COR
porate property is not bearing its pro-
norton of taxation. we demand that
such property shall bear it's juee and
equal share of the expense OF govern
ment."
