TO PUSH SALE OF DRAFTS
Minnesota Bankers Favor Vigorous
Steps to Meet Express Money !
Orders Competition.

Joseph Chapman, Jr., secretary Of the
Minnesota Bankers association, says that
a large number of replies have been
received to the letter sent out by the
executive council recommending that
banks advertise their drafts for sale, just
as the .postoffice and express companies
advertise their money orders. Nearly all
the recommendations of tho executive
council. In. an interview in the CONNER
cial West. Mr.. Chapman says:
MANY banks that. have replied to the
letter asking their cooperation, favor
making a uniform charge for cashing ex-
press money orders. And there is no good
reason why banks should cash them with
out charge, no matter whether presented
by a customer for deposit, or by some one
wanting the cash. By doing so it lis aid :
ing the express companies to build up
their money order business at the expense
of the banks draft business. Il
cit will be necessary, however, forSthe
banks to cash drafts drawn ON the money
centers free Of charge. There is now no
charge for cashingi money orders, no mat
ter where they may be presented. Drafts
must be placed on the same basis. People
should understand, when they buy a
! draft, that it will. be cashed by any bank
in the state free of charge, just as an
express order will be cashed at an. ex-
press Office, if the latter. happens to have
the money.
zone advantage drafts have over money
| orders is that in case one is lost, dupli-
cate can be had without delay or diff
Guilty. The bank merely stops payment on
the original and issues a duplicate. But
when a money order is lost, there is E
long delay and an almost endless amount
of annoyance before the customer can get
his money or duplicate"

BRANDS It As FALSE
The County Attorney Is Disposed to
Resent That Article in i
McClure's.
He Thinks the Writer Received
False Information From
Some Enemy.

The Mcclure, article is false-wholly
false in so far as it concerns me, but I
understand the purpose of it. I am sur
prised that a paper Of the standing Of
T h ournal should run such an ar
ticle without inquiring or consulting any
body
This was the only comment County At
torney F. H Boardman would make, this
morning, when asked If he intended to
take any action in regard to certain allu-
sions to him in an article by j. T. Steffens
in the January McClure's magazine. He
is very indignant at the publication Of the
article, quotations from which were
printed in this paper Saturday.
In a morning paper Mr.. Boardman was
quoted as follows:
1t seems to me the public is not spe-
cially interested in who is entitled to the
most credit In cleaning out corruption and
general cussedness in the city and county.
What the people want is good work and in
time their fairness will, Judge us all impair
TALLY.
I'm Justice to myself, I will say this:
The writer of the Mcclure article, Mr..
Steffens, must have been incorrectly in
formed or he. would never: have written
as he did. The false information came
from enemies Of mine; for instance, the
writer says: The prosecutor, was poll
t1cian, ETC. All this is; false. absolutely
seem ludtcrous that Mr.. Clarke SHOULD tell
me that he would mum my office as he
wanted! to, and that he wanted to; you're
excused
1T is plain to me, and think also to
others, who it was who inspired this un-
just and libelOus publication. It is along
the same lines of the injustice that was
done me last summer by a. few men whom
l would suppose would be above such lit
tleness as malice, envy and spite. Observe
the -glorification that runs all through
the extract. ~
Much splendid work has been done to-
ward cleaning out county and city cor
ruption and elevating the tone Of public
morals. The grand jury Of last summer
Is entitled to great credit for this, so is
every other grand jury in Hennepin county
during my administration
THE courts are entitled to special cred
It, and as to. credit due myself and staff,
l am willing to leave that to fair public
Who will in time see the truth in spite of
slurs, defamations, self prasing publica-
lions inspired by unjust and hostile minds.
There is much more work along the same
lines to be done. I shall keep on as I
have begun, notwithstanding abuse from
sources ought not to expect it.
II do not care to say any more tonight,
but later on, If this hostile work is to con-
tinue,- may go after af ew scalps myself"

.OUASHED TWO MORE !,
Last Indictments Against "Reddy
Cohen Only One Chance to
Convict Him.
His Appearance as q Grand jury
Witness Was What Saved
| Him.

There remains only one chance OF con :,
victing Joseph Cohen. who some time
ago pleaded guilty to the charge OF nav
ing compounded a crime in the corrupt
protection Of violaters Of the law, and
later withdrew his plea. This morning
Judge C. B. Elliott granted motion 10
quash the last two indictments against
Cohen.
When Cohen pleaded guilty there We're
not less than dozen indictments against
him. But, having confessed his crime,
nolles were entered in all but the one case.
Then Cohen went before the grand jury as
a witness Later he withdrew his plea OF
guilty at the courts suggestion. TO make
sure Of him. therefore, two more ind1ct-
ments were returned. A motion was MADE
to ouash these on the ground that Cohen
own evidence before the grand jury was
at least the partial basis for them. Judge
Elliott reserved his decision. The de-
cision in the Gardner case by the supreme
court followed, and now Judge Elliott
quashes the latest Cohen indictments evil
IDENTIFY in line with the supreme courts de-
cision in the Gardner case.
