MAccABEEs SUE A BANK.
Ask for Judgment for One Hundred
Thousand Dollars.

Pow Huron, Mich, Jan. 25.-Suit
has been begun by the supreme tent of
the Knights of the Maccabees against
the Port Huron Savings bank to re-
cover judgment in the sum of $780,
900. The actual amount which the
plaintiffs seek to recover is about $780,.
900. This action is the result of the
recent troubles precipitatnd upon the
supreme tent by G. D. Thompson, the
self-confessed defaulting finance keep
er of the order, who was also teller of
the Port Huron Savings bank. This
bank was not the regular depository
of the supreme tent, but it is alleged
that Thompson sent to sub-depositors
drafts on the bank instead of drafts
against the Commercial bank, which
is the Maccabees' depository here.
Thompson then replaced the Port HUI
ron Savings banks drafts with Mac
cabee drafts, so it is said, without the
banks knowledge. The declaration
alleges that 100000 passed through
the banks hands in this manner. G.
X. Phillips, who is Thompson's attor-
ney, appears as one of the attorneys
for the supreme tent against the bank.

IN LUGGER'S PLACE.
Prof. F. L. Washburn Is Chosen as
State EntomoIoaist.

Minneapolis Jan. "a. AT the meet
ing of the university regents yesterday
afternoon Frederick L. Washburn
was elected to the chair of entomology
at the state agricultural college to
succeed the late Professor Otto Lug
ger. This position also carries with
it the title of state entomologlst. Pro-
lessor Washburn took his bachelors and
masters degree at Harvard and then
spent one year at Johns Hopkins.
He was instructor at Michigan uni
versity for three years and for six
years was entomologist at the Oregon
state. experimental station and was
with the Oregon state university seven
years in all. He, was also state BIZ
ologist. The regents also granted per
mission to G. D. Dorr to erect foun
tain on the campus.
Peace and harmony were the watch
word of the joint meeting of the re
gents and the state board of control
which was held in President North
rop's Office in the morning. The meet
ing was. called. for the purpose of
bringing the two boards together for
discussion of their relations and to
agree upon plan of settlement of the
difficulty
ALI regents were present with.-the
exception of President GreenIeaI Clark
who is in California.
After lengthy discussion of the
positions of the two boalds a resolu-
tion was drawn up, providing for the
appointment of Regents A. E. Rice,
Thomas Wilson and William M.
LeggetU as a committee of the board
of regents to confer with committee
from the board of control upon plan
of cooperation and to report at an ad-
journed meeting.
Just what the results of the confer
ence of the two committees will be is
uncertain, but it is construed to mean
that if the legislature does not amend
the law, the two boards will decide
upon some plan of harmonious action.
The board of control, it is said, is not
anxious to assume control of the f.
nances of the university but feels that
under the law as it stands, i is OBJ.
iged to do so. The regents on the
other hand are unwilling to give uK
any of their rights. 1t is also the
unanimous opinion of the board of re-
gents that the university should moi
be classed as a charitable institution
and they hope that the law will bt
amended by the legislature to tha
effect. AS the board of control is said tt
be willing to be relieved of the charge
of the university's affairs, it is very
probable that they Will argee to any
plan of the board of regents which
while leaving them nominally in con
troll, yet allows the regents to manag,
the affairs of the states leading edu
cational institution.

McCleary or Grout bill is the only one

STEAMSHIP CONSOLIDATION.
Prospects Bright for the Formation OF
the Combination,

Tic SOHlDIfldIlOfls
New York, Jan. 25.-In a statement
of what is claimed to be the actual
conditions surrounding rumored nego-
tiations for the consolidation of large
Atlantic steamship interests, The
Journal of Commerce quotes person
claimed to be an authority on the sub
ject, who says that two distinct lines
of negotiations are under way,
namely:
Negotiations under consideration
for a financial consolidation of num-
Der of steamship lines and negotiations
for an understanding which shall fix
minimum rates, and which, therefore.
will be, to a certain extent, self-acting
in the matter of regulating the supply
of tonnage. Negotiations in neither
case have arrived at the stage of com
pletion, though in the latter instance
the prospects were exceedingly bright
up to a few days ago for prompt
elimination.
The statement continues that, as
the White Star line is not for sale.
except possibly on cash basis, the
prospects are bright for the forma-
ton of a combination between the At
lantic Transport line, the Leyland and
the International Navigation company,
and the various services under the
last named-the American line, Red
Star and Philadelphia service.
This, according to the statement,
may be brought about through eX-
change of securities into a new cor
poration, to be headed, possibly, by
President Griscom of the International
company. With the exception of the
White Star no other British lines are
interested in the proposed consolida-
ton outside the Dominion line, out of
Boston,

Street Car StrapS.

1t is mot entirely prudent to put
your hands in the straps furnished in
the street cars for overflow passengers
Turn one of these straps in any cal
not fresh from the shops inside out,
and the reason will be plain. Handled
as they are by all sorts and conditions
of men, they are really carriers of di-
sease. The abraded skin of your finger
may touch an infected spot, and dan
gerous bacteria may adher to it, which
at the next movement of che hand may
be.transferred to the delicate tissues
of the mouth or eyes. -Exchange.

GOVERNMENT FOR FILIPINos.
General Wheaton Would Base 1t on
the British and Dutch Colonies.

Manila, Jan. 25.-Both the civil and
military authorities here deprecate
the publication in the Philippines of
Professor Schurman's Boston speech
and the minority report in the senate
on the Philippine tariff bill, which
they say are liable to have bad ef-
feet on the Filipinos.
General Wheaton, commander of the
department of the North Philippines,
says men have been sent to prison
here for remarks such as those of Pro
fessor Schurman and that If what he
advocates was accomplished it would
mean the expenditure of much treas
ure and the shedding of blood like
water. Now, as before, he adds, So
900 soldiers are needed here and will
be required in these islands for at
least five years. Tt will be then pos
sible to form a government based on
that of the colonies of Holland and
Great Britain, they having proved the
most successful managers of Oriental
races
