COMMITTEE GAN
SHED NO LIGHT
Blames Directors Of Faribault s
Bankrupt Bank for Accepting
Clement S Statements.
Special to The Journal.

Special to The Journal.
Faribault, Mimi, March 11.-At the
meeting of the depositors of the First
National bank today, the committee
appointed to investigate the bank s
affairs made it's report.
While the, committee had inter
viewed the directors, receiver, presi-
dent and other officers, it failed to
elicit any facts not already familiar
TO the public, and was unable to make
any statement of what the assets of
the bank will realize. 1t was I'M
able either to obtain access to, the
books of the bank Or to examine the
securities held, and consequently could
add nothing to the receiver g estimate
Proposition Turned Down. y
"Yesterday we met with the direct;
Ors Of the bank in body, but they did
not wish to listen to the, proposition
that the committee had to make to see
af they could not reopen the bank and
pay 100 cents on the dollar if given
time, as they wanted first to wait until
the ninety days had expired for the de-
positors to file their claims with the re-
ceiver so as to determine just what the
liabilities of the bank would be and
how many of the stockholders would OF
could pay the assessment called for by
the controller. Iney also DelleVeu Lndt
the receiver could do more at this time
In getting the affairs Of the bank in
shap pc for settlement than they could do
If they had charge.
"From what the committee could
learn from their interview with the .di-
rectors and from other sources we be-
lieve that the directors had SO much
confidence in the business ability and
honesty of Mr.. Clement that they &C.
cepted all his statements in regard to
the affairs Of the bank as true, and
failed to look after the interests of de.
positors.'
Government Attorney Coming.
Is The receiver informed the committee
that he expected an attorney represent
ing the controller next month to investi,
gate the liability of the directors.
The committee was continued and
authorized to employ an attorney. A
resolution was adopted urging the adop
ton both by the state and federal legis
latures of measures insuring depositors
against loss in bank failures.

Did you never hear of Bill Hall, the
great horse trader Of Lancaster, Mo. ~
asked D. r. Kittern., I used. to travel
I had heard many things concerning
his eccentricities, but it was not for
over year after first making the town
that met him. One day l sat in the
smoking car, and when we stopped at
Kahoka some one entered the coach
whose peculiar dress made me inquire
who he was. It was hot day in the
summer and he was wearing a silk hat,
Tuxedo coat and a bright colored silk
vest that was cut so low as to show
a wide expanse Of polished linen. It
was the famous Bill Hall, and that was
his costume every day in the year and
from morning to night. But he knew
horses as well as any man, and many
have been the fortunes he has won and
lost and won again in following the
race track. -
