Charley Fonger tells a story of a
tenderfoot Missourian who is not alto
gether satisfied with the Mckinley
kind of prosperity in it's relation to the
sheep business, says the Hamilton
News. The newcomer entered into an
agreement with a certain Bitter Root
mutton magnate to herd his sheep on
shares-for half the increase. He had
spent between three and four months
herding, during which time, in the
course of his solitary ramblings, he had
inquired out just how long it would take
him TO acquire as much money as Mar
Gus DAILY, when one day a wayfarer
happened along and the Missourian
found out that his band were all weth-
ers.

DEWS BANKRUPTCY CASE.
A Boston Bank Attempts 10 Prove That Assets
We're Concealed.

In the United States Court this
morning, before Judge Brown, the
hearing on the petition of Joseph Dews
to be discharged from bankruptcy was
resumed, and the feature of the pro-
ceedings was the attempt upon the part
of counsel for the Washington National
Bank OF Boston. which institution is
opposing the petition. TO prove the ol-
legation that Mr.. Dews had concealed
a portion of his assets.
The claim is made that certain life
insurance policies that Mr.. Dews held.
and which were made payable TO his
wife, were sold by her and that the
sum netted was $4,000. This amount
Of money Mrs. Dews loaned TO her son
and he invested IL in the wooden mill
at Washington village. and these-facts
are not contested. But the bank claims
that the money really went to the
benefit of Joseph Dews. the defend
ant, and that as such il should have
been turned in as a part Of the assets,
for the benefit of the creditors.
Attorney Bolles of Boston, who rep
resents the bank, made a strong argu-
ment this morning. in support OF his
contention, while Messrs. $. w. X. AL
len and Lorin NJ. Cook appeared for
Mr.. Dews.

Were Prepared 10 Fight

The one topic OF conversation was
the coming fight with the Americans.
They seemed to regard ii as inevitable
and were not disposed to avoid it, The
soldiers were intensely earnest and en-
thusiastic everywhere and the fact
that the new arms were being shipped
in and distributed showed that some
well defined policy OF preparation was
being put into effect"
How did the natives get these i'm
proved arms?"
They were shipped i'm during all
last summer and autumn. AS %on as
Aguinaldo established his government
he began to levy taxes in every village
and demand tribute from the residents s
in and around Manila and a great deal
of this money was expended for arms.
At Malolos | saw Maxlms and Gatlings.
There are enough Spanish artlllerymen
among the insurgents TO handle these
guns In an effective manner. II is evil
dent that the natives have competent
engineers with them. for their trenches
have been well constructed and so ar
ranged that soldiers can retreat from
one 10 another without putting them
selves in range"
For n time | met Aguinaldo two or
three times day. lie impressed me as
n very shrewd leader He was exceed
ingly suspicious of the Americans and
! found the greatest difficulty in get
ting any Information out Of him. At
every Interview he had one of his ma
tive officers with him"

may desire 5000 bales OF cotton, and in
approaching the broker, calls for a
particular shipment. For instance.
there are some manufacturers who ask
for Atlantic cotton. Others may call for
Greenfield. or Red River, or Louisiana.
Each district can produce but a certain
number OF bales and the broker has
limitations and must figure against
other shipments from the same district.
He may have 5000 bales stored north
and he must fish for the other three
thousand. He orders by wire Southern
brokers To pick mp the requisite num-
ber OF bales TO complete the order at a
particular price, and as the purchaser
does not desire an immediate delivery
OF the entire 5000 bales. he margins say
for May or June delivery and the cotton
is delivered as wanted. The difference
between the market price OF the cotton
at the time of purchase and that at the
delivery represents the brokers' COM
missions on the deal. and this system
is recognized and in force in the entire
textile world the members of the Board

They Feel That Action is Necessary to
Make Dealings Between Mem
berS Absolutely Binding.

There is a great deal OF talk among
the members of the Board of Trade
relative TO the decision OF the Appel
late Court i'm the Weeden- Wilcox trade,
and a feeling is current among them
that somehow, and without much delay,
the entire matter should be brought Of
ficially TO the attention OF the arbitra-
tion committee OF that organization.
The decision of the court vitally af-
fects the business of the members of
the board, and is is felt that there
should be an understanding arrived at
which will protect their transactions.
In the case in point one member OF
the board. six years ago, bought cot
ton on margin. He neglected TO put
in a stop" order, and when, through
the fluctuations Of the market his mar
gin was wiped out, the broker also
member of the board, received notice
from the house connected with the New
York Cotton Exhange that the account
had been closed.
Subsequently. and within the time al
lotted for the outlawing of an account,
the broker brought suit and obtained
judgment for the difference between
the price at which the cotton was mar
closed out. ON the appeal taken by the
purchasing respondent the upper court
reversed the decision of the Common
