Of long skirts in the streets, on the
ground that the public health is endan-

costume has always been the subject
of public criticism, and always will be.
Long skirts have been fiercely attacked
on account of the sweeping up of all sorts
of evil-minded germs and carrying them
into homes, where they hibernate in clos

FOR THE OMAHA LOAN AND TRUST
COMPANY, WITH BOND OF
$4,000

Straw Mortgages in Assets, but Do
Not Represent Anything
of an Irregular
Character.
VIM. WALLACE, PRoPoNENT

OMAHA, Neb., Dec. lion application
of William Wallace, Judge Fawcett,, in
the district court, late this afternoon,
appointed William X. Potter receiver
for the Omaha Loan and Trust company,
and affixed his bond at 100000 Edgar
H. Scott was named as attorney for the
receiver. AS soon as the appointment
was made the receiver qualified on the
bond and took possession. The applica-
ton was made by Mr.. Wallace as a di-
rector in the company, and who as pro-
ponent, gave a bond Of 100000, with
Guy C. Barton and C. H. Brown as sure
ties.
No official statement was filed with the
application for a receiver, but Mr.. Wal
lace's attorneys are authority for the
statement that the company has out
standing debenture bonds of $3.50, 000 it is
guarantor for about $4,5OO,O0O of it's loans,
and it has q paid-up capital stock of
S500,000 The assets are still somewhat
indefinite. The better part of them are
represented by 81, 100000 of real estate
taken on foreclosure, which is the book
value of the property. About 100000 of
this amount is covered by what are
known as STRAW mortgages" which are
included in the list fguaranteed loans
Explanation OF Straw Mortgages.
The STRAW" mortgages do not repre-
resent anything Of an irregular charac-
ter, but are mortgages used by large
trust companies to avoid carrying large
amount Of dead property that ties up
working capital.
This leaves about 100000 of real es-
tate on book value to cover the deben-
ture bonds and any actual liability which
exists ON the guaranteed loans.
1t IS not believed by any Of the d.
rectors that the stockholders will realize
anything out of the capital stock. Ono
had been offered within the past two
months at from 1 to cents on the dol
lar.
The greater part of $4,000 900 of guaran-
teed loans are also protected by realty
mortgages. The loans were made on Mis-
souri, and Nebraska farms and on Omaha
realty. The Missouri loans are said to
be fair, those on Nebraska lands of high
grade, and those on Omaha property are
also considered worth about par
Several years ago about $350,000 of
mortgages were placed on Omaha subur-
ban property which has not proved all
that was expected Of it, and this load
the trust company has been carrying.
The failure to realize on them is given
as the real cause of the present financial
distress of the company. The savings
bank which was taken over by new
corporation, is said to be in good condi-
ton, being is no way connected with the
trust company.

Iowa Varsity in Debt.

IOWA CITY, Iowa, Dec. 1.-THE Uni
versity of Iowa board of athletic control
closes the present calendar year in debt.
Manager Fred G. McCutchen announces
that in order to provide a good schedule
for the baseball team this spring the
students will have to raise money by
joining the athletic association, which
has become a dead letter at Iowa. or by
subscription. The deficit that faces the
board Of control is not a large one and
is more than covered by the value of the
improvements On Iowa field.
The debt has, in fact been created by
the extensive improvements made upon
the athletic field. The football team had
a more successful season than ever, but
the baseball and track teams lost 81, 900
between them, and the improvements
made in ercting a large grand stand and
in cindering the track and making the
new football field have used up more
money than was made on football.

At 10 o'clock there were 10000 people in

Commander Richard Wainwright, SUI
perintendent of the naval academy, call

salient feature connected with the con-

objections the congressman stated that
cadets injured during the game would
receive a pension and that he consid-
cred this unfair to the government.
AS matter Of fact, no cadet can re-

in actual warfare for his country no PEN

pears that there need be no fear Of a
