STATE COURT UPHELD
HIGHEST TRIBUNAL DECIDES ON
OLD BANK CASE.
CLAIMS NO JURISDICTION
Question as to Whether Receiver
Appointed in Minnesota Could
Maintain Action as to Liability of
Stockholders Residents of Wiscon-
sin-Cannot Review State Court.

Washington, April 1.-THE case of
A. G. Finney, receiver for the Farm
ers' and Merchants state bank of Mill
nesOta, which failed in 1898, against
Mary A. Guy, a resident of Wisconsin,
who owned a number of shares of
stock in the bank, was decided yes
terday by the United States supreme
court, but it ruled it could not revise
the conclusions reached by the SUI
preme court of Wisconsin in the mat
ter. The suit was brought to enforce
the liability of the stockholders under
the laws of Minnesota The Wiscon-
sin state court held the receiver ap-
pointed in Minnesota under the stat
utes of that state could not maintain
action outside of Minnesota to enforce
liability. The opinion of the supreme
court held that as no federal ques-
ton was involved, it was incompetent
for the court to supervise the action
Of the Wisconsin court
whether" it added, aside from
federal question the Wisconsin court
should have permitted this action to
be maintained because of principle of
comfy, between the states in a ques-
ton exclusively for the courts of that
state to decide"

Buffalo, April Tt is alleged that
Arthur R. Pencil, who was killed in
the automobile accident March 10, was
a defaulter to the extent of S150,000
to 100000. The story, it is said,
leaked out as a result of the legal dis
pute over two life insurance policies
and is to the effect that Pennell in
duced friends in the east to place
money in his hands for investment.
He acted in fact, as their financial
agent. He would inform them, it is
said, Of some good investment which
he had come across which would pay
an excellent rate of interest, and
they would send him the money. The
money sent him for investment, it is
alleged, he spent, and when the inter
est payments fell due he made pay
ments out of his own pocket
Pennell carried over 100000 life in
surance in order, it is said, that after
his death the eastern parties to which
he is alleged to have been a defaulter
might be able to recoup the losses
which they sustained through him. In
his will Penneli named as administra-
tor of his estate his brother, j. Freder-
lex Pencil. He left to his admins
traitor sealed instructions that upon
his death he should make good in full
out of his estate all losses which had
been sustained through his defalca-
tions.

BUCKET SHOPS APPEAL.
From Federal Court Decision Over
Ownership of Quotations.

Chicago, April 7.-President Chand-
Ter, of the board of trade, said the
United States court at Kansas City
Judge Hook had made the injunc-
ton permanent, taking an opposite
view of the question of ownership in
quotations, and the bucketshops had
appealed. AS the Kansas City case
had precedence, and was now on it's
way to the court of appeals, the de-
clslon OF Judge Adams at ST. Louis
would not be appealed from. Trading
in futures, Chandler said, was now
generally recognized throughout the
country, as it enables the farmer to
sell his grain at a cost of from one
half to one cent a bushel commission
merchants margin profit on account
OF his dealings in the future Unless
able to sell futures, the charge for
dfsposing of grain would be forced to
5 cents a bushel.
