ILLINOIS BANK is CLOSED
Directors of Peoria National Decide
that Institution Shall Retire
from Business.

WASHINGTON oct. 1.-The comptroller
Of the currency has received telegram
announcing that the Peoria National bank
OF Peoria, Ill, has closed its doors upon
the order Of its directors.
PEORIA Ill, oct. THE Peoria National
bank did not open its doors today. c.
II. Bosworth has been appointed receiver
and will take charge of the banks affairs
pending liquidation. This is the result OF
action taken by the board of directors al
a midnight meeting.
When the news that the Peoria National
had been closed had spread depositors be-
ban to flock into the Dime Savings bank
In which Dougherty Is a heavy stakeholder,
and by 70 o'clock the bank was experiencing
a heavy run. At o'clock the building was
besieged by anxious deposltors and
officials posted the sixty day sign. They
announced that the bank was to be kept
open until all depostors are satisfied.
In financial circles 1t is not thought that
the bank is in danger as It has $4,000 cash
in hand.
Shortly after II o'clock this forenoon Mr.
Dougherty came from the Dime Savings
bank, where he had been closeted with Mr.
o. J. Bailey and other gentlemen concern
ing the securities which he had deposited.
He went directly to the school board ONCE
in the Library building, where he talked
freely about some phases of his affairs
''Mr. Dougherty, have you any statements
you would like TO make concerning this
affair and its developmentsP"
II don't know what more can say than
what has already appeared" he replied
II see by the papers that 1 am crazy
(smilingly) and am broken down l did
not know II myself"
THE putting up of securities IS construed
as a confession by many people, Mr.. Dough-
erty," was suggested.
IAN have TO say in that regard is sim
ply this: In putting up the securities /
have in MIR. Bailey's hands, 1t was not for
the purpose of extenuating anything, but
simply that believe things will be shown
to be right and then the amount thus
deposited Is much more than anyone claims
the shortage to be. 1t has no reference
whatever to guilt or innocence, and It was
farthest from my idea in so doing that I
was in any way putting myself or any one
else in a compromising position. It does
mean, however, that neither the school
board or the Peoria National bank will
lose one penny"
The grand jury is still in session and is
grinding out indictments by the wholesale
When will 1t end? is the question that is
being asked by Peorians, The states at
torney's Office threw up a batch of about
forty yesterday and are hard at work day.
A report by the grand jury is looked
for on Monday in court circles, and then
the revelation that will follow can only be
conjectured by Peorlans.
At the states attorneys Office today it
was said that no idea could be given upon
or where the investigation would end.
I'VE are grinding out indictments as fast
as the printers can print them" said States
Attorney Scholes today. Il look for a re-
port of the grand jury about Monday"

RAMSEY ASKS STATE AID
Wants inspectors Appointed to SUPER
wise Election OF wabash Board
of Directors.

TOLEDO, O.. Oct. THE Gould Ramsey
contest for control of the Wabash at the
annual meeting Of the stockholders here
next Tuesday broke out today In an appli-
cation made to the common pleas court by
Joseph Ramsey for the appointment of in
spectors OF election at next weeks meeting.
The Ohio law provides for inspectors that
the interests OF stockholders Of corporations
may be guarded In his application Mr..
Ramsey says the inspectors who served at
last years meeting and who were to serve
next Tuesday are not qualified by either
education or experience to serve as inspec-
tors and pass upon the eligibility Of direc-
tors. These men are Fred Reynolds,
nephew OF Colonel Reynolds, director Of
the wabash; A. w. Cotton of the Wabash
Steamship line, and c. w. Newton, local
agent.
In his application Mr.. Ramsey charges
that certain stockholders intend to vote
fraudulently, Illegally and defective proxies
and asks that new and dsinterested inspec-
tors be named. Mr.. Ramsey also makes
affidavit that he is still president OF the
road and represents 10 per cent OF the
stockholders. Mr.. Ramsey contends that
the inspectors will have to pass upon eligl-
bility of directors while counsel for the
Wabash and George j. Goud's attorney,
who are contesting the application, claim
that the inspectors have purely ministerial
and not judicial powers, The court will APP
point the inspectors II Mr.. Ramsey can
prove he represents 10 per cent of the stock
holders, and he has until Monday to furnish
such proofs.
The rumor that the Wabash annual
meeting scheduled for Toledo next Tues
day is TO be postponed cannot be confirmed
here. In fact the local counsel of the
company deny the rumors.

Plea for CIemency in Edward
wilson's Behalf.

PIERRE, s. D., Oct 7.-(special) 1.-THE
State Board of Pardons in session here
recommended favorable action on the ap-
plications of Henry Billet, sentenced from
Roberts county on a charge of murder,
and on that of John Jungworth, jr., sem
fenced from Hutchinson county on a charge
of incest.
The application Of Christian Christensen,
sentenced from Clark county on charge
of wife murder was rejected.
The application Of Edward Wilson, sem
fenced for life from Moody county on a
charge OF murder for the purpose of rob-
berry was rejected. Wilson was repre-
scented by Judge Aiken of Sioux Falls,
who made the plea that his client had
Thoroughly reformed and had made his time
in prison count for future citizenship by
the study OF dentistry. The application
was opposed by States Attorney Coleman
of Moody county, who was backed in his
efforts by a long remonstrance against
clemency, which was further backed by
letters from residents of that county giving
their reasons why no clemency should be
exercised, Wilson is under life sentence
for the murder of a companion for few
dollars. the murder having been shown to
be premeditated and most brutal one.
