WILL SETTLE
AFFAIRS

At a conference between David j..
Reinhardt, receiver for the Guaran-
tee Building and Loan Association,
and a committee comprising the
stockholders held yesterday. Mr.
Reinhardt announced that it would
be necessary to wind up the affairs Of
the association.
Mr.. Reinhardt announced, as one
of his methods Of procedure, that he
would sell the mortgages of the ass O..
citation. 1t has not been decided
when the mortgages will be sold, but
being second mortgages mostly, it is
realized that it would be more bene-
fetal to the interests Of the share.
holders than to foreclose.
The proceeds will be divided pro
rata among the share holders.
Senator S. John Abbott, chairman
Of the stockholders committee eX.
pressed himself as being satisfied
with the procedure planned by Mr..
Reinhardt. Mr.. Abbott who has
been keeping in close touch with the
association affairs said II think
the shareholders will get more than
we thought they would originally
1t is estimated that at least 30 cents
on the dollar will be received by every
person when settlement is made.
There was also a movement to re-
place the association on sound basis
by getting the shareholders to con-
sent to an extension of time when
their certificates would mature and
to get each one to guarantee that he
would not withdraw within three
years. This plan d id not have many

TUESDAY. SEPTEMBER "A, 1901.

IT'S said that President Roose-
velt is friendly to the South. The
Ratchet has been buried at last we
hope between the North and South.
The interests of one are identical
with the other. He has said that
he would carry out the IDEAS OF the
dead President and he generally
does what he says. lie is man
Of the people and has already en-
deared himself to hundreds, yea
thousands, with whom he came in
close contact IN the call 10 arms
when the Maine was blown up in
Cuban waters. He has also said
that he was President of the whole
people, knowing no distinction be-
tween the North and South. We
predict that his administration
will be a successful and America
place its products in every country
ON the face Of the globe.
If President Mckinley had lived.
Roosevelt is the man we should
have liked to have seen succeed him.
But fate ordained that he should
occupy the White House chair in
seven months after Mckinley was
sworn in for his second term. We
hope he may be able to arise 10 the
occasion to settle The fight in Della
ware aud appoint a Republican
Collector of Port No Democratic
President ever yet allowed Re
publican Federal Office holder to
hold over single day before his
successor was appointed. Surely
there is Republican IN Delaware
good enough aud capable enough TO
ill the Office.

HANGED IN MONTANA
MOE TAKES A PRISONER FROM
 THE JAIL.
James Brady Charged with Having Assaulted a Five-year-old Girl Lynched by 200 Mask
 ed Men.

Helena, Mont, Oct. 2.-James Brady. the man who assaulted 5-year-old Ida Pugs- ley in Helena yesterday, was this morn ing about 1:30 o'clock taken from the jail by a mob and hanged to telegraph pole in the Haymarket Square, about three blocks from the jail.
 The crowd was orderly and after the man had been hanged it quickly dispers- ed There were about 200 men engaged in the affair and they were all masked They attacked the jail door with bat tering ram and it soon yielded. On gain ing admittance, they demanded at the point of a gun the keys of the jailer, and threatened that if he did not yield up the man they would kill him. The jailer then got the man out of the cell and he was given to the mob. When he first took him. Brady asked: What is it gen. tlemen?'
 The march to the hanging place was quiet. Brady was given chance to say a word. He declared that they had the wrong man, although he had been positively identified by his victim and a score of other people who had seen him with the child. He also asked that some money that was due him from the Mon- tana Central Railroad be sent to a niece, and then he was pulled up.
 The end of the rope was tied to the pole and the crowd dispersed. Later Sheriff Mcconnell cut the body down and placed it in a coffin. There will be an investi- gation today.
