MulIan sustains Rremner.

Des Moines. May attorney Cen
eral Mullan will transmit to Auditor of
State Merriam, today, an opinion in
which he holds that the federal bond
holdings of national, state and savings
banks can not be deducted from the as
sessment for taxation of the stock Of
the banks. He sustains City Solicitor
w. H. Bremner, of Des Moines, who has
recently decided this point for the Des
Moines board of review, and comedies
with his predecessor, Attorney General
Remley. Scores of inquiries on the
point have been received by the auditor
of state since the Des Moines contro-
versy began. The custom of assessors
has been to deduct the federal bond
holdings. The auditor of state has al
ways advised against it. Since Mr..
Rremner's decision two test suits have
been brought in Des Moines by inter-
ested banks. 1t means a difference Of
about s1.000,O0O in assessment in Dee
Moines, and presumably of many mill
ions turnout the state.

Fort Dodge, May Fired Schaffer, a

home in the east part of the city, and
thus far his family has been unable to
arrive at any satisfactory reason for
his absence. He has not been seen at
his home since Monday, April 81. That
night he was on his way home at 8
o'clock in the evening. While passing
the yards of the Great Western road he
told his companion he must go and see
a man. He did not come home that
night and has not been home since, al
tho he has been seen on two different
occasions In remote parts of the city.
Schaffer transacted his business as
stock man with his fathers money.
which was on deposit at one Of the To-
cal banks and was permitted to check
out what he wished. None has been
drawn since his departure. His watch
was also left at home, which places him
in destitute condition, SO far as funds
are concerned. Inasmuch as his family
relations have always been pleasant
and his financial affairs are in pros
porous condition. no good reason can be
assigned for his strange disappear
ance His family and friends are much
concerned over his absence. There are
no suspicious Of foul play.

Linn County With Rest Of tho District
in Matter of Candidates.
Special to Times Republican.
Cedar Rapids, May 1.-The Repub-
lican today says:
Today the Fifth district Is unrepre-
sented In the state government. AT
the coming state convention the dis
trict will attempt to put an end to this
state Of affairs, and will ask, as 1t
has perfect right to do, two nolni-.
nations at the hands Of the conven-
ton. 1t will present a candidate for
the office Of railroad commissioner in
the person Of Mr.. N. S. Ketchum, Of
office of reporter Of the supreme court
in the person of Mr.. M. A. Buchan,
Of Grundy county.
Mr.. Ketchum is representative
business man. He stands for large
manufacturing interests. He is a mar
of mature years. He has had long ex-
perience as shipper. He is honest,
straightforward and able, and thor
oughly qualified for the very important
duties Of a railroad commissioners.
Mr.. Buchan is of Scotch parentage
and Canadian by birth, having first
seen the light of day In the queens
domain in 1857. 1t was his good for
tune after coming to the United States
to locate in the most excellent county
of Grundy in 1870, and from that time
until the year 1881 he gave his atten-
ton to farming and made that success
that every Industrious Scotchman is
wont to do. >.
He served as secretary of the repub-
lican county central committee for five
years and was chairman for one year.
He has been busy man from the time
he went to Grundy county to the pres
ent day. He is thoroughly qualified
for the office he seeks.
Both'of these gentlemen will be cor
daily supported by the district. They
have been formally endorsed by sew
eral counties where state delegations
We're chosen, and but for the fact that
Linn county was not choosing state
delegates at the time, the members OF
the late convention who considered
they had no right to dictate to dele
gates not of their own choosing.
Messrs. Ketchum and Buchan WOULD
have been endorsed formally last Mon
day.

vealed the fact that they had been
buried and that the edges had been
eaten by rats. The natural presump :
ton was that Mahannah had secreted
the money and that he took advantage
of the fire in his house to say that 1t
had been burned charred the edges
and turned it In for redemption He
told the officers that he had taken the
money out of his business in Burling-
ton the day before the fire and that 1t
had been deposited In trunk which
was damaged by the fire. He Is en-
gagged in the manufacture of cigars in
Burlington. An examination of his
books showed that on the day he claims
to have taken the money out of the
business the firm had only s31 on hand
and as q result 1t was decided to ar
rest him on a charge of making false
affidavit to secure the redemption of
currency. There is also charge
against him for mutilating United
States currency.
I'VE have no doubt that this money
has been buried for the purpose OF Sc
creting it. Its very appearance would
indicate this and this OF course. leads
to the suspicion that he was implicated
in the big express robbery and that the
money is a part Of the booty. There is
evidence to show that his business has
lost money from the time he establish
ed 1t, while on the other hand he has
been spending money freely in Burling-
ton and only a few days ago offered to
pay cash for some real estate. He was
the messenger in charge Of the package
at the time it disappeared and his pres
ent partner in the cigar business was
clerk in the Darlington Office of the
Adams at that time. Both were let out
shortly after the robbery, but all efforts
up TO this time to attach guilt to him
have failed. am confident now that
the express company will go after him
on the evidence that has been furnished
to it by the government officers.
The $4,000 package in question was
shipped to Burlington bank from Chi
cago and while en- route the contents
were taken out and pieces of wall paper
of the size of bank notes substituted.
The package of wall paper was all that
reached the Burlington bank"

MINISTER ATTACKS DANCE.
Webster City Divine's Sermon NettIes
the Odd Fellows.

webster City Divine's Sermon Netties
the Odd Fellows.
Special to Times Republican.
Webster City, May Something of
a good-sizeJ fractional row has been
stirred up in the First Baptist church
of this city. Trouble has been brewing
since last Sunday, when the pastor.
Rev. +. a. Harter, preached sermon
bitterly attacking the Odd Fellows of
the city. Today relations are very
strained between the pastor and a large
part of his church membership.
Last Friday evening the two 1. o. O..
f. lodges of the city and their sister
Rebekahs celebrated the eighty-third
anniversary of Odd Fellowship. The
band was hired and grand banquet
with plates laid for 500 was held.
'Toasts. addresses and music made up
the program until 1890 o'clock. AT
that time the band furnished music for
ball in the armory hall, just adioin-
ing, for all who desired to participate.
1t was this latter part of the program
which raised the Ire of the Rev. Har-
ter.
Sunday morning when the minister
went into his pulpit he took with him
a copy of the Daily Freeman Tribune,
from which he read the account of the
dance to the audience. He criticised
this sharply and held Odd Fellowship
up to scorn for permitting dancing at
its anniversary celebration. He also
took exception to certain statements
made by City Attorney Tucker in his
address made at the banquet. Mr..
Tucker had stated that the Odd Fell
lows gave more annually to charity and
for benevolent purposes than did any
one Protestant denomination. For
seventy years the l. o. o. F. has aver
aged 100000 per year for this pur-
pose. This Mr.. Harter vehemently de-
MED. He stated that no one knew the
amount given by the churches.
His sermon caused an open revolt
among the Odd Fellow members Of his
church. His criticism of the dance was
particularly vituperous and offensive
to Odd Fellows. One of the members of
his church made bold to attack him in
card published in local paper In
which he severely scores the preacher
for his attack on Odd Fellowship.
It can not be predicted what the OUT
come may be. The pastors supporters
are warm and untiring in their efforts
to uphold him, while the offended Odd
Fellows of his membership are just as
determined IN their fight against Mr..
Harter to undo him.
