His body was found there by Orth

pasture. The boy saw Faber walk
ing down the track about s o'clock
and later heard the reports from the
mans gun.
Faber came down on the seven
o'clock train from Vilisca and went
directly to the Linderman hotel, where
he registered and got his mail. The
mail contained letter from his be-
trothed, stating that she mad conclud-
ed to break their engagement. This
seemed to unnerve the young man
and he became frantic with grief.
After brooding over his trouble for
some time, he went to a hardware
store where he purchased a revolver
with which he took his own life. Fa-
Der was % years old. His parents
reside somewhere in Texas, but his

The coroners jury came to the con-

STRANGE DINNER IN LONDON.
Most of English Cabinet Present to

London, July 25.-J. Pierpont Nor

at a remarkable dinner given in the
house of commons by Archibald White

the other Premier Balfour.
The other guests included United

inghouse Electrical company, and
Gilbert Parker member of parliament
for Gravesend.
The proceedings were informal, and
the conversation was peculiarly frank.
The South African war, international
yacht races. the shipping combine ana
King Edwards health were all dis
cussed in turn. One of those present
said to representative of the Asso-
ciated Press
1T was one of the most remarkable
gatherings in which ! ever took part.
Practically a quorum of the cabinet
talked over, in the simplest, most
open way. the leading American SUBJ
Jects, which now vitality concern both
countries. To see Mr.. Morgan and Mr..
Balfour together, one could scarcely
imagine that the former had ever been
regarded as a DOGGY who threatened
England's commercial existence. II
some things which passed around that
table could be repeated it would be
an eye-opener to those who are TO-
menting commercial rivalries between
England and America"

FOUND BY ASSESSORS.
More Cash Taxed in Iowa This Year
Than Before.

Des Moines, July 24.-The local as
SCISSORS who went around early this
year found more moneys and credits
in possession of the Iowa people by
nearly eighteen million dollars than
they did year previous. The report
from Linn county is not yet in, but
all other counties have reported and
the reports have gone to the execu-
tive council which will take up the re-
view and equalization work as soon as
the telephone assessments are certi-
fed out
Some peculiar comparisons have
been made. Scott county still has the
most of this class of personal proper
ty returned for taxation, total Of
1881 $50, which is an increase Of
$447,445 over the last year. The lar
gest increase was in Polk County
$685. Dubuque came next with
a gain of $733,939.
Several counties reported less Of
moneys and credits than in the pre-
vious year, for instance, Hardin lost
$1S5,549, Crawford s74,3S9, and Union
$54,993.
Winneshiek county, without any
large towns. has a total of $2.137 ,024
in moneys and credits, while Woodbury.
county with the Sioux City banks and
loan companies, reported less than a
million. Clayton made big gain and
reports a total of $3,076. 1877, and Cerro
Gordo jumped up to 1895, 36l.
Blackhawk, Des Moines and Fayette
also made good showings.

UPHoLos eRlswoLo LAW.
Attorney General Files a Brief Up
holdjnu Constitutionality,

Des Moines, July 24.-Attorney Gen.
eral Mullan has filed a brief in the
case of John w. Brady VS.. George
Mattern, sheriff, the action brought TO
test the constitutionality of the Girls
void law, enacted by the last general
assembly, and intended to bring home
loan tontine concerns and like CO.
partnerships doing a like business
under the building and loan law. Mr..
Mullan filed the brief at the request
Of Judge McVey, who will hear the
case Monday. Attorney General Null
Ian upholds the constitutionality If
me law.
There has been talk of the state
beginning litigation against concerns
that are not complying with the Girls
void law. The action of the attorney
general in filing this brief is no indi-
cation such litigation will not be be.
gun, although it will probably not be
started until Judge McVey's decision
is announced and it is known whether
this is favorable to the state.
The plaintiff in the action holds the
law is unconstitutional on six grounds.
4lr. Mullan argues on each of these
points separately. One of the conten-
tons of the plaintiff is that the act
prohibits individuals and unincorpor.
ated associations from going into the
building and loan business and gives
corporations a monopoly of such bust
ness. In disposing of this, Mr.. Null
Ian takes the view there is no benefit
to the public in allowing such insti-
buttons to be conducted. He says:
From computations which | have
procured to be made by those familiar
with the business of building and loan
associations of this kind, it is exceed
ingly doubtful whether the contracts
entered into will ever mature and full
ly pay out. and certainly not in less
than so or 60 years. In either case,
the final results and benefits which
accrue to the members are very differ
ent from those held out by the solicit
tors for the purpose OF securing men,
bership."
Mr.. Mullan concludes it is no benefit
TO a person to have to wait so or 50
years to secure enough to build a
modest home. The institutions, he
holds. are properly subject to state
control, as they are detrimental to pa
irons and beneficial only to promoters.
No monopoly is provided for, as the
law permits unincorporated associa-
lions to engage in the building and
loan business If they deposit securi-
ties with the auditor

Oskaloosa. July 25.-The democrats
of the Sixth congressional district
met in this city yesterday. The reso.
buttons presented by the majority re-
port reaffirmed the Kansas City plat
form. Richard Burke of the Oskaloosa
Times lead the minority and he re-
ported in favor of substituting the

erence to the Kansas City platform
Mr. Burke's motion was rejected by the
convention by vote of 112 to % and
tina report of the majority was passed
with whoop.
John p. Reese of Abba, president oi
the United Mine Workers of Iowa,
was then nominated by reclamation.
MIR. Reese was called to the platform
and made a speech of about one hours
length. Mr.. Reese's speech was chiefly
devoted to a discussion of organized
labor and it's relations to politics. He
stated that he did not represent
organized labor alone, but the farmer,
the business man and the general
workers of the country. He asked for
the votes of all, but particularly the
| support of the labor organization
which he represented. He assured the
convention that if he received the
| support OF organized labor and that of
| his party he would be victorious in

TO OFFSET MORGAN SCHEME.
Canadian Pacific to Oppose Shipping
Combine.

London, July 26.-The announce
Pacific, had at the request of the Can
adam ministers, now in London. Offer
ed to establish and work a fast SER
vice between Quebec and Liverpool
in the summer and between Halifax
and Liverpool in the winter with a
general freight service, is causing con-
siderable stir in London, and is hailed
with delight as being an Offset to j.
P. Morgan's shipping combine. The
evening papers have flaming placards
saying English Combination to Fight
American Trust" etc.
The officials of the Canadian Pa
cific railroad here deny that they have
any such request but they as well as
others know that the desired fast
freight service is finally approaching
realization. The chief indication is
the fact that the offer was made by
the Canadian Pacific railroad at the
instance of the Canadian minister and
IL is said to be known what conditions
cede
Lord Strathconna, the Canadian
high commissioner said
while ! am unable to add to the
published statement it seems reason
able and probable. The members of the
dominion government some years ago
were authorized by the Canadian par
lament to offer subsidy of $l50000
for this purpose So far as | know this
offer has not been increased. The re-
ports of subsidy of s260,000 shows
an advance of the original offer. but it
has always been understood Great
Britain would supplement Canada,
offer though | am not saying to what
extent"

law against religious associations
passed by the French parliament last
year.
This drastic law is a result of the
old struggle in France between the
republicans and the clericals, and is.
more directly. a fruit OF the Dreyfus
affair. Prominent among the anti
Dreyfusites were members of religious
orders who fiercely denounced the
government because 1t persisted In

They also took the fullest advantage
of the national furore to stir up oppo
