BROKER FIRM GOES BROKE.
Cummings Commission Co. Forced
to Suspend Payments.
Persistent Knocking in Certain
Quarters Brought on Failure.
Liabilities Not Large, But Country
Creditors Suffer: Most.

The Cummings Commission Com
pany, which had a branch Office in
this city and was considered one of the
largest and best known brokerage
houses in the Twin cities, suspended
business Thursday morning.
The following statement, sent out to
all the Cummings Offices throughout
the state, the Dakotas and as far north
as Winnipeg, sums up briefly the
cause of the failure:
1.-THE systematic knocking that has
been going on against this company
for some time has created such con-
dition of affairs that our attorneys
advise us to close up all accounts at
the close of today's market, so as to
protect in measure all alike. It will
be few days before we can give re-
suits"
Mr.. Cummings, the head of the firm,
in an authorized interview, said:
81 am glad-to say thatmy liabilities
are comparatively small, because dur
ing the past six weeks 1 have paid off
large number of accounts. I have
exhausted every resource in doing
this, even to:the selling of my home
some weeks ago.
"My accounts with banks and
brokers are absolutely clean. I owe
none of them. And I have no open
accounts in st. Paul or Minneapolis,
all those still remaining being with
country customers.
Cuisines has been very dull for
the past few months. My income fell
off, but expenses kept up just the
same.'
The local branch Office for several
years has been in charge of Robert
SHETLAND, who in all probability will
now find it necessary to remove from
New Ulm. This feature of the failure
is in itself a most unwelcome one.
Another bad feature of the failure was
that several Of the local patrons were
"tOuched.'

REMINISCENT OF JUDGE WEBER
Marshall Paper Tells Of Close Re.
latiOnS Between JuriSt and
His Reporter.

The Marshall News Messenger of
this week has the following:
The late Judge Webber's confden-
tial relations with his court reporter,
W. T. Eckstein, we're more marked
than the usual official connections of
court and employee. And the conf
dence and dependence placed with
Mr.. Eckstein was high tribute to
the ability and Judgment of that
gentleman, who served as court re-
porter for period of seventeen years
under Judge Weber. Since the ap-
pointment of Mr.. Eckstein, he has
been admitted to the bar, and with his
varied experience during seventeen
years, meeting with and being a part
OF every phase of litigation, he must
be ripe student in the mysteries and
intricacies of the profession. After the
retirement of Judge Weber, and dur
ing his perplexities and mental distur-
bance, he relied more than ever upon
the assistance and judgment of Mr..
Eckstein, and scarcely move did he
make in business affairs that he did
not summon to his aid his court re-
porter, his ''idus Achates.'' If he was
| worried regarding business affairs,
or mentally depressed, the telephone
summoned Eckstein, whose explana-
tions, advice and cheerful suggestions
| for the time brought relief, but fre-
quently would the judge again sum-
mon his friend when he had but re-
turned to his place of business.
Exact business methods, absolute
correctness to the smallest detail, was
a strong characteristic of the judge.
| To the fraction of a penny he insist.
ed upon paying all demands agains
him. and in recorded transactions there
might be no omission of word OF
letter, or deviation from proper posi-
tions. AS typical of his exacting
methods, he would not allow for the
/ trivial payment of the cost of a blank
upon which legal trans action was tc
be- recorded, and neither would he
allow for its payment by another
party if it should be furnished by him
self. Rather than deviate from his
fixed principles, he would allow ;
transaction of magnitude to go in de
fault. In illustration of his exactness
was the fling of his election expense
affidavit prior to the last primary cleo
ton, as required by statue. He called
Eckstein to make up the report, which
, was in detail to the smallest item
When completed the reporter retired
But Immediately, for an hour or more
the Judge hunted about the city for tia
reporter, and, when found, demande,
that he return and make correction
in the report by inserting an over
looked item of trivial importance
even insisting that the item should b,
| inserted in its proper place according
to the date Of the same.

A moon quake is now unthinkable.

owing our own ultimate doom, like the
mummy at Egyptian banquets," but in
the meantime, if the Edinburgh Re
view has correctly conceived the teach
ings of seismology, the inhabitants of
earth may console themselves for the
havoc wrought through earthquakes
by rejecting that they demonstrate
the vitality of our planet In that dis
tant past when the moon actually
luaked there may-some scientists de-
clare there must-haye been forms of
animation on it's surface. Though the
moon, by reason of its smaller size,
was bound to lose it's atmosphere. it
must have taken millions of years to
do so, and there may have been time
for the cycle of life, from the primeval
germ up to sentient beings and down
again to the hardest lingering plant
cells, to run its full circle" The writer
in the Edinburgh Review continues to
develop this line of thought:
Earthquakes are sign Of planetary
vitality. They would seem to be char
acteristic of the terrestrial phase of
development. Effete globes like the
moon can scarcely be subject to the
stress to which they are due nor can
they be very suitably constituted for
the propagation of elastic waves. In
choate worlds. such as Jupiter and
Saturn, are still less likely to be the
scenes of reverberating conclusions.
Their materials have not yet acquired
the necessary cohesion. They are

It's Ability TO Change It's own and
the Waters Color


I was lying OH a rock watching the
movements CT some land crabs which
Kept retreating from the water as the
tide rose, when suddenly crab dashed
frantically from the water and out
after it galloped - there is no other
word for tia devilfish nearly two feet
across, writes an observer from Ava
Ion, Cal. "The animal continued the
chase a short distance. lifting it's ten
tacles in the air in sort of overhead
motion; then, finding pursuit hopeless.
1t withdrew with peculiarly unpleas-
ant, writing, gliding motion charac-
teristic of these animals. Upon reach
ing the water it stationed itself Just at
the edge, so mimicking the color of the
bottom that when glanced away and
looked suddenly back l could not at
once distinguish it. This devilfish had
the appearance of cat watching for
mice. and when crab was seen it
would shoot out a long. attenuated
tentacle and attempt to seize it. BY
carefully insinuating my way to the
waters edge I quickly grasped the
specimen and after a short struggle
tore it from the rocks and secured it.
'At various times l had from three
to five deyilfshes in an Enclosure

and test their strength. In confine-
ment, if the tank bottom was dark
they assumed various tints. generally
dark reddish brown, but the largest
one was a tigerlike creature, about
three feet across. with a ground Of
Nvid white covered with black or dark
gray blotches, giving it truly fiendish
appearance, especially as the eyes
were conspicuous and appeared to emit
lambent CLEANS. The change of color
was marvellous in it's rapidity. In a
special tank in which two of these
prisoners We're confined they occupied
the corners, facing outward. with arms
either coiled under or above them. At
any offensive movement on my part,
presenting my hand under water. the
color scheme would change. A blush
appeared to pass over the entire sur
face, and in large squid I can only
compare it to heat lightning-a rapid

Some did not resent my touching them !;
others merely threw a tentacle in my
direction, while one never touched me,
but directed it's siphon at my hand

in that direction, apparently endeavor-
ing to blow my hand away. 1t was
fascinating to observe the range this
water gun had and how by seeming
intuition the devilfsh could direct it

TO do good things with their vast
wealth has siezed the noted million
aires. Several of them have expressed
freely their opinions on what million
aires consider should be their duty
with their wealth. The following are
selected ideas along this line:
John D. Rockefeller-Many men put
the accumulation of the dollar above
devotion to their Creator. While it
is we'll enough to make money, it is
entirely wrong to forget our obliga-
ton to our Maker.
August Belmont-In contemplating
the future of the great and ever-grOw-
ing needs of our institutions into
whose life and growth has flown an
endless stream of requests and dona-
tions, one must pause at the thought
of drying up those springs of life.
James j. Hill - To make slave of
one's self in order to secure the power
that comes from wealth is wrong. I
would not doit. 1t is not worth the
candle.
]. Pierpent Morgan-Honest wealth
will do no harm. do not remember
in my life that ever wilfully misrep-
resented anything to anybody. have
helped mep and in my humble way
tried to be of some service to my
country.
Andrew Carnegie - Oh, [ pity the
boy who is born the son of a million
aire. I believe a rich-man surplus is
sacred trust to be administered in
ones own lifetime for the good of
others.
Helen Could've is trust and
not to be used for ones personal
pleasure alone, but for the welfare of
others.
