Point.

Claimed That Those Who Stood

Finally Discovers" a Mistake
In Examination Papers.

Congressman w. A. Reeder of the
Sixth district has withdrawn the ap-
pointment of his nephew to West Point
and recommended Clarence Rarick of
Osborne This change in the program is
the result of an error discovered in the
examination papers by Mr.. Reeder. At
least this is the reason assigned for the
change in the recommendations of Mr..
Reeder
The facts are that Reeder attempted
to get his nephew in West Point when
the examination papers did not entitle
him to the place. Reeder's nephew was
marked first in the examination while
Rarick was given third place.
The friends of Rarick made a COM
plant about the result of the examina-
uOn which was heard all over the state.
Reeder was charged with unfairness
and Republican newSpa pers in the dis
trict declared that he was guilty of rec
Ommending his nephew for the appoint
ment when the young man was wholly
incompetent 1t was charged that Reed
er announced the appointment for his
nephew even before he examined the
papers which We're handed in by the
applicants al BelOit. These facts were
presented to Reeder who made no de-
malls, but he has changed the recon-
mendatiOn, claiming that ''an error has
been discovered in the papers"
Rarick passed a first-class examina-
ton and was so thoroughly cOnVersant
with the subjects upon which he was
examined that he stated at the close of
the work that he would take a high
standing. When he was given third
place, he demanded an investigation

RIGHTs OF DEPOsITORs.
May Receive Credit For Full Amount
When Bank Fails

Judge Hook has just decided one of
the numerous cases of litigation grow
ing out of the failure of the Cross bank.
1t was a suit in which c. S. JObes as re-
ceiver of the bank sued Widely &
Ford. a business firm of Emporia, for
81 .OOO
The firm had borrowed $4,000 from the
Cross bank, giving notes in security for
the amount. At the time of the failure
the firm had considerable deposit in
the bank, and after the crash came
they wished to turn in what was due
them on their deposit to pay off part
of the notes.
Mr.. JObes. as receiver insisted that
they should pay the full face value of
the notes, and then receive their pro
rata share of the assets of the bank
along with the other depositors AS
this would be equivalent to losing half
of the deposit the firm objected, and
Mr.. JObes brought suit against them
in the United States district court.
Judge Hook has just decided the case
in favor of the firm, stating that they
have the right to turn in their account
against the bank to offset the banks
claim against them.
