Irrigated Land in Spokane Valley.

miles, with an average width of five
miles, reaching Occur. .dsAIenes City, on
Occur d'Alene Lake, to the southeast,
and Rathdrun, Idaho. to- the north

famous Rhine valley in Germany.
with this difference, that while the
Rhine valley has been cultivated for
thousands of years, the Spokane val
ley is practically virgin. soil
Spokane is the distributing point
for Eastern Washington and Northern
Idaho, has a population. of $1,000, and
from it electric lines are being con-
structed to all parts of ethe valley.
which will soon be one vast suburb of
the city itself.
Irrigated land in the western part
of the valley is now worth $500 sper
acre. while in the eastern part, where
water is now ready foF-use, it can be
had for $50 per acre. Alfalfa and
semi-tropical fruits Of all varieties
grow to perfection in this district.
The proximity of Spokane makes this
an exceedingly desirable proposition.

THE PRISONER sw1NDLE.
A Letter Which May Lead to Its
Breaking Up.

Chicago, Sept. 21.1A letter received
yesterday from Madrid Spain, by
Julius Rothenberg. 4809 Prairie ave-
nue., may aid the Spanish government
in running down the Spanish prisoner
gang of swindlers whose worldwide
operations have extended over a
period of several years It will be
turned over to BerthoId Singer, the
Spanish consul, with the request that
the Madrid authorities be notified.
The letter purports to be from a
friend who is in a Spanish prison for
bankruptcy and it requests help to
recover $4,000 in checks, payable to
bearer, which are said to be hidden
in a secret compartment in a valise,
which with other pieces of luggage
has been seized by the authorities. In
order to recover the money, the let
ter says, it will be necessary for Mr.
Rothenberg to go to Spain and pay
the registry fee for the luggage and,
as a reward. one-third of the $780,
900 is promised to him.
The prisoner signs only r. - and
enjoins Mr.. Rothenberg not to write
in reply but to telegraph to a trusted
servant, whose address is 4 Hileras
Segundo, Madrid, Spain. Then fol-
lows this postscript:
above all, for superior reasons, an
swer by telegraph and not by letter."

Receiver Bradley Served With
Formal Notice.
Creditors OF Bank Demand That
He Sue Devlin.

Receiver J. T. Bradley was today re-
quested by attorneys of certain of the
largest creditors of the bank to COM
mence action against C. J. Devlin and
c. E. Hawfey and the other directors of
the First National bank looking to the
recovery of the money lost by the de-
positors in the bank. The idea behind
Of the demand which is being made up
on Receiver Bradley is to secure judg-
Bent for the amount represented by the
depositors against the directors of the
bank. This is to forestan a discharge

full. In case Mfr. Bradley refuses to
bring suit the action viii be brought by
e. a. Austin and Wheeler & Switzer, at

I am rather skeptical of the effect or
legality of such suit said Mr.. Brad

a suit of that kind. never heard of
such a suit being brought by a receiver.
l of course shall pay attention to the
notice and will send the data to the
comptroller of the currency at Washing
ton awaiting instructions from there be-
fore I act / don't believe that a suit
can be brought in behalf of simply a
few of the largest depositors even
though they may endeavor to represent
the remainder of the banks creditors.

be brought that each depositor will have
to bring separate action. I can't believe
that there is anything in this for surely
the treasury officials at Washington
would do everything they could to pro-
teet the depoSitors of the bank
]. r. Switzer. one of the attorneys for
the depositors said: There is plenty of
precedent for such a suit. The receiver
is acting and representing the creditors
of the bank and he would be the most
natural person to bring a suit of this
character. It is certainly the proper
form of bringing the suit AS far as
bringing suit against the directors of
the bank for violating the national
banking laws there are any number of
similar cases existing in which a decis-
ion has been handed down"

HURT IN A RUNAWAY.
Nelson salee and Son Edward Serious
ly Injured.

Nelson Salee, a well known Silver
Lake farmer, and his son. Edward Salee,
were both seriously injured in a run
away accident which occurred at the
corner of Seventh and Madison streets
at 1920 o'clock today.
In attempting to keep his unmanage-
able team from running down woman
in a. buggy, Mr.. Salee turned them into
the curb, wrecking and oyerturnIng the
wagon. The son, who is about 20 years
of age, pulled his father from beneath
the wreckage. and then fell to the
ground He was suffering from serious
internal injuries.
Residents of the neighborhood carried
the old gentleman into the home of
Mr.. S. Wilson at 635 Monroe street,
and the young man was taken into the
house of Mrs. Waldron, at 701 Monroe
street. A physician was called and at
ter a haSty examination ordered the
victims of the accident to be removed
to Stormont hospital Mr.. Salee, senior.
was suffering from fracture of the
left hip, and suffering greatly, and the
young man was almost unconscious
from pain.
Mr. Sa1ee is so years of age, and is
seriously injured, but it is thought that
the boys condition is more dangerous.
Two wheels of the wagon were torn
to pieces by striking the curb, and the
wagon, which was heavily loaded with
waterrnelons, cabbage and apples, turn
load. The horses became u41rnanageable
when a single tree came loose and fell
upon the heels of one of the horses. Mr..
Salee attempted to head them toward
a telegraph pole, but sa what he would
run over a. woman who was passing
in a buggy on the same side of the
street. To save her he turned the team
squarely into the curbing.
Mr. Salee said that he could not con-
troll the frightened horses because a.
mistake was made when they were
hitched up this morning, and the wrong
brides were used
