Hot Winds Reported to Have

Rain Came Just in Time to
Prevent a Severe
Loss.

The first damage to the crop by hot
winds is reported from western Mime
sota For distance of fifty miles along
the Minneapolis & st. Louis road from
Boyd, Mimi, to Revillo, s. D., the fields
were swept by prairie simeon Tuesday.
The thermometer at one point registered
10 early in the day Travelling men say
that the wind came like a blast from a
furnace and completely wilted the grain.
The following day the weather was cool
er and rain came to the rescue, making
a combination that saved much of the
grain from destruction and it is now
thought that the damage will not be great
w. H. McWilliams, superintendent Of
the elevators of the National line, is
back from trip through North Dakota
He says that crop prospects generally are
as good as they are painted. There has
been too much moisture in places, es-
pecially in the country directly north of
Fargo. Flax is backward, the result Of
too much cool weather earlier In the sea-
son.
Grain men are Of the opinion that the
number of harvest hands will be suf1-
cient to take care of the crop. Advices
from Michigan Illinois and other eastern
states winch nave always sent large
number Of men to the northwest, say that
the movement will be large this year The
farmer is very solicitous about the hay
crop and is anxious to see the men arrive
early.
Charles Wells, of st. Louis, who has
been making a tour of several of the
northwestern states for information on
the fax crop, says that although fax Is
backward in North Dakota the yield will
be big, and that North Dakota will lead
all states in fax production this year.

workhouse. The gambling property con-
hscated by the deputy sheriffs, which was
introduced in evidence in court, was or
dered destroyed Immediately It's esti-
mated value is nearly $1,000. The attor-
ney for Loomis secured a stay Of thirty
days and will appeal the case.
Deputy Sherifs Testify.
When the trial of Loomis was reopened
before Judge Holt this morning Deputy
Sheriffs Anderson and Wald told of their
visit to the gambling house on June %,
when Loomis was arrested, and the para
phernalia confscated This property, con-
sisting of a roulette wheel and table, a
faro outfit, poker and crap tables and a
large quantity of chips and playing cards
was brought into the court room. Mr.
Larrabee objected to it's introduction in
evidence, but was overruled.
Mr.. Anderson described the arrest and
said that Loomis, while leaving the place
with the officers, said that he would like
to save two sets of chips which had cost
him $35 and $4O." This was the first piece
of evidence tending to show the ownership
of the property in the raided house.
Gamblers Agent Used Chiefs Ohice.
Josie Christians. the sister of the com
planning witness, told of her visit to the
gambling house with young Christians
when they asked restitution of the money
lost. She told substantially the same
story as the complaining witness of their
two or three visits ther and the con-
versation with the attaches of the place
In addition she told of the attorney for
the 'house" who wanted to conciliate the
Christians by the payment Of $50. The in
terviews with the chief of police and the
mayors secretary were also recounted
She said that it was in the office of the
chief of police that she again met the
attorney for the gambling house. There
the attorney offered to "give them an
other chance" and said he would pay her
SIS to drop the case. This was refused.
Subpoena for Ebert.
At this point the state announced that
1T was reasonably certain that they knew
the attorney for the house, and that a
subpoena had been issued for Charles
Ebert in this connection. The clerk said
that Officer Washington Pierce had re-
ported that after diligent search he had
been unable to find Ebert The state ex-
pressed its desire to have the testimony
of Ebert introduced. But to be frank"
said Assistant City Attorney Waite, "I
have not much confidence that he will be
found" s

CHECKS KITED
Trouble In Sight for the Seventh
National Banks President.


Washington, June 2S.-The failure Of
the Seventh National bank of New York
is likely to be more serious in results for
some of those connected with the bank
than appears on the surface. Money has
been loaned to three times the value OF
the capital, the surplus and undivided
profits, on securities OF uncertain value.
Checks have been kited by the certifcation
of President Kimball, who seems to have
been the usual one man running a bank
that gets into trouble. The amount in
volved in loans which has brought the
bank under the disapproval of the con-
troller of the currency is $1,600,000. The
check certified by the president of the
bank to Marquand & Co. was for $300,000
on the risk of having that amount made
good before the close of banking hours.
The certified check was kited by check
for like amount on another bank
For the kiting of the Marquand check
Former President Kimball may have to
deal later with the department of justice.
For loaning money on securities not fully
matured the directors will have them
selves to blame. The gravity of the fail
ure is emphasized in the fact that the
capital of the Seventh National bank is
$500, 900 and the surplus and undivided
profits are 1924, ,000 The transaction for
which the bank has been closed is more
than three times this amount.

FREE THE YOUNGERS
A Mammoth Petition for Their Par
don Is Presented.
ARCHBISHOP IRELAND SIGNS
The Petition VIII Be Considered by
the Board of PardOnS
July :.

George NJ. Bennett, the Minneapolis at
torney, called on Governor Van SAINT this
morning and presented him with the
Younger problem in the shape of a mon
ster petition for the parole Of the fam
Gus brothers. 1t is an extension of the
old petition which was signed by Senator
Davis. The last name on it is that of
Archbishop Ireland. Mr.. Bennett called
on the distinguished prelate this morning
and presented the petition, which was
promptly signed.
The petition calls for pardon, but will
be used in the campaign for a parole un-
der the provisions of the Deming law.
Mr.. Bennett will appear before the board
of pardous at their next meeting, July 8,
and speak in support of the parole ap-
plication, which has already been in
dorsed by the board of prison managers.
Two Technical Questions.
There are two technical questions to be
passed on before the board takes up the
case on it's merits. One is, did the bill
legally pass? It will be remembered that
the house called the bill back, and that it
was never signed by the governor. 1t is
printed in the laws, but the legality of
its course has been questioned The
other question is the one raised by Chief
Justice Start when the bill was in the
governors hands: Des the bill impose on
governors hands: Does the bill impose on
warranted by the constitution? Should
the chief justice raise this point, he will
probably not have to act under the bill,
as according to all precedent paroling is
not an exercise of the pardoning power.
which is the only extra judicial duty the
constitution imposes on the chief Justice
