n mated at 100000,
st. Paul, Jan. 16.-James Doran, who
has been doing business in the Ma
tional German-American Bank build
ing as a stock broker, has closed his
doors and suspended business. 1t is
understood that Mr.. Doran has been
operating extensively and that he mas
been persistent bear.
The constantly and aggressively ris-
ing market has been too much for him
and after using all his available prop
erty in an attempt, to carry himself
along and protect his patrons be has
been obliged to quit for the reason
that he has no further money or prop
erty out Of which any money may be
realized. =. ."-.,
1t is not known to what extent he
Is involved, but it is stated that his
liabilities are proba bly, over 5000, 600.
It is not believed that any serious
financial difficulties will result to any
body else On account of the failure.
inasmuch as the patrons of the estab.
lishment have been as rule men OF
financial strength whose losses will
not seriously embarrass them.

NO objection had been made he was
not called upon to pass upon whether
the matter presented was or was not

The statement, Mr.. Babcock repeat

also believed, the so-called "Stal-
warts" which he understood meant
the house organization. He had, he
said, never been an applicant for the

craftsmanship and had it been ten

AS to statehood Mr.. Babcoek said he
had always been opposed to joining
Arizona and New Mexico as one state
and had always opposed it. AS to his
views on the tariff Mr.. Babcock said
they had not changed. He presented q

favor of revision and said while bow
