AUBURN BANK DEVELOPMENTS.
Liabilities Reach 100000 Against
$4,000 Available Assets.

Special to the indianapolis Journal
FORT WAYNE, Ind, May 14.-The latest
advices from Auburn concerning the de-
funct bank situation are that the total liza
bilities, instead of being $121. 900 as Receiver
Leighty supposed after his first examina-
ton. will reach $4,000. Against this large
sum the receiver may be able to realize
about $4,000. Mrs. Elizabeth Mcclellan.
widow of the founder of the bank. who sup
posed herself rich, has given up all her
property and barely makes good her own
obligations.
The money taken from the banks assets
by Don M. Garw0od and DR.. Z. l.. Silver
for investment in their Industrial ventures
seems to have been finally lost, and the
notes given by them to the bank are worth
less. The offer of Charles Mcclellan to
turn over property in Detroit worth $4,000
affords little hope of relief from that quar-
ter, as the Michigan concern in which he
invested the banks money has no rating
whatever in Duns. There is intense feel
ing against the family in Auburn, particu-
larly against the son and the sons-in-law,
who speculated the resources of the bank
out of existence.

OF persons in Cincinnati, the evidence to be
used by them as attorneys for Moses Fow-
Ter Chase, the court having appointed
them to act with the prosecuting attorney.
The application of the Duhme lawyers was
fought on the ground that 1t established
dangerous precedent that would result
In continued raids on the Moses Fowler
Chase fortune and In the end dissipate all
the available money.
Judge Hammond. in Directing to the
granting Of the application, said that If
the Duhme attorneys wanted money to pay
for taking dispositions they should by right
go to Mr.. and Mrs. Duhme. They are the
instigators Of this trouble" said Judge
Hammond. land should pay for the work.
IT Is robbing the poor young mans estate,
and the court should not grant the order"
Judge De Hart appointed Mr.. Hammond

might legally object to the application be-
ing granted. But the court overruled all
objections and granted the order. Judge
Hammond took exception to the ruling and
asked to be allowed thirty days in which

Attorneys for Frederick S. Chase, the pc
titioner, declare that it is the intention of
the Duhme attorneys to secure payment of
the expenses incurred in conducting the
case from the Moses Fowler Chase wealth,
and they say that every effort to draw on
the estate for funds with which to fight
the case will be strongly opposed Two of
the leading Lafayette law firms and two
of Cincinnati are associated with Prosecut-
ing Attorney Randolph as attorneys for
Moses Fowler Chase, although all but the

the court as Moses Fowler chase attorneys,
Judge Hammond, after he had opposed the
granting of the Duhme counsel's applica-
ton. denounced Prosecuting Attorney Ran
dolph for his attitude I'm the case and said
that he (Randolph) had gone over to the
Duhme side, body and soul. He was in
duced to ask for continuance of the case"
said the Chase attorney, when he knew

will be taken from the $4,000 in cash left

the guardianship proceedings being de-

tinuance the Duhme attorneys undoubtedly
would ask for more money with which to
conduct their case.

LONDON, May 14-The question of the
reduction Of naval ornaments came UP
again to-day in the House Of Commons
during discussion Of the estimates. The
speakers suggested that the government
take the first step In proposing reduc-
ton to other powers. Sir Charles Dixie,
advanced Radical. said he thought this
might be possible In view OF the improved
relations between Great Britain and
France those two nations might talk the
matter over and subsequently approach
Russia. Even II Germany did not agree
to a reduction the three powers might eff
feet something. 1t was not necessary for
Great Britain to build against the United
States. 1t would be as great a mistake TO
count upon the United States as an enemy
as to count upon her as an active ally, Tor
the United States had always been the
great defender of the rights of neutrals.

country.
The secretary added that he would not
on that occasion express any view with

considered Whether European powers and
the power across the Atlantic might come
to some agreement in regard to the cessa-
ton of ornaments was not, however, the
question he had to deal with now. The Ad-
miralty's present duty was to give the ma

important still against defeat by any

ner mischief was brewing. This was short
ly before Yeager and Miss Finley left the
church for the latter's home. The accused
were discussing Yeager's visits to Hem
lock. and one remarked: He will get the
same thing Sutton got" aliuding to the
killing Of Francis Sutton two weeks ago.
Witness narrated that he told Yeager Of
the overheard conversation and warned
him Of danger to which Yeager paid no
heed. The hveryman testified that the
three prisoners were In Kokomo Sunday
evening and left for Hemlock some hours
before the murder and were drinking. They
had three bottles of whisky and one OF
them remarked: I'VE must save this, for
we have work to do
The accused boys denied all knowledge of
the crime and established a reasonably
strong alibi. All the members Of the fam
fly will testify that Ingles was at home in
bed all night. and the others also told Of
their whereabouts. On account Of the abb

A report reached the office of Prosecutor
Cooper tonight that brings a new and mys-
ferrous strange woman into the Yeager
murder case. 1t is related that soon after
Yeager left the home of his affianced,
Myrtle Finley, a yelled woman met him in
the road and asked to ride; that he took
her in an \act of courtesy and that she
asked him to change his course and was
cealed and he was ruthlessly slain. The
new woman in the case" story is not gen.
orally believed, as the officers have not sue
ceeded in locating the stranger.
The release of the Eads boys and young
Ingles on temporary bond is not relished by
the friends of the murdered men, though
violence is anticipated as a result. OH
