WAS PAINFULLY INJURED
Section Man Was Struck by a
Lump of Coal.

Hagerstown, Ind, Sept. 2.-Newton
Abreli section man in Chas. Keye's
crew was very painfully injured Satur-
day evening AS through freight
was passing the section men a lump
of coal as large as a mans head flew
out striking Abrell on the leg, break
ing or fracturing a small bone two
inches above the ankle. He was TAX
en- to the office of DIR. Stotlemeyer
where the injured limb was taken
care of. This is another example of
how fast the trains are allowed to
run through the corporate limits of
the town. This freight was said to
have been going at a terrific speed
and would have probably caused Alb
rell's death If the coal had struck
him on the head. AS it is he will be
layed up for quite a while.

REPORTS INDICATE
GENERAL PROSPERITY
$50 Out of 24O State Banks
Comply With Law.
EXAMINES PRIVATE BANKS.

Reports from $50 OF the e40 state
banks in Indiana that have been re-
ceived at the Office of the state audi
tor show that conditions throughout
the state are better than they have
ever been. The reports indicate
prosperity in all classes for the rea-
son that the banks are having diff
Guilty in making loans.
For the most part the state banks
are in very prosperous condition"
said r. b. Oglesbee, chief bank clerk
in the state auditors Office. The re-
ports received thus far show large
deposits and small demand for loans.
The banks are all having trouble
placing their money. The demand for
money is less now than il ever has
been in proportion to the population.
Merchants, clerks, business men,
manufacturers, workingmen and in
fact men. Of all classes, are depositing
money instead of borrowing it,"
Tuesday is the last day under the
Jaw and the auditors order on which
state banks can file their reports. AT
ter that day a penalty is provided
amounting to 500 for failure 10 re-
port. The penalty is to be collected
by the state auditor. Reports are
coming into the office slowly.
State Auditor Billheimer has begun
the examination of private banks.
Some time ago he Informed the pri-
vate banks desiring to become depos-
itors of state funds that they could be
examined prior to Dec. /, when the
new depository law goes into effect
Thirty bankers have asked that their
institutions be examined and on Mon
day Auditor Billheimer will start
three of his examiners at work in
these banks.

MYSTERY Y Be CLEARED SOON

Clear Up Affair.

man working on the Selah ditch
was lured away, with his wife or his
paramour. and murdered in 1901, is
the decision of those who have been
interested in the finding of the two
skeletons at The Cascade dam. Who
the victims were is not known, but
the mystery will undoubtedly be
cleared in short time.
That Walter Younkin and wo-
man living with him were murdered,
as reports state, is undoubtedly not
true. The well-known attorney, H.
J. Snively, acted as counsel for Wal
ter Younkin when the estate of his
father, Charles Younkin, was set
tied.
Il received many letters from
Walter Younkin," states Mr.. Snively,
"since he left for British Columbia
Letters have been received at my Of
flee from Northport. Charles Youn-
kin died May 2S, 1894 Walter
Younkin was away from the city at
the time, but returned when his
father died. He was in North Yaki-
ma and vicinity from 1894 to 1898.
On January 6, 1898 the estate of his
father was closed and a few days
later Walter Younkin left North
Yakima and to my knowledge never
returned. For some time after he
left North Yakima personal letters
from Walter Younkin were received
in my office. Then came word Of his
death in British Columbia and news
paper clippings to substantiate the
notice of his death. If he returned
to this city from 1898 up to the time
of his death, he returned secretly
and unknown to me or to his
friends"
That murder was committed in
Selah valley, however, there is no
room for doubt. Men in this city re-
member the time we'll. A man,
in company with his wife. or with
some woman whom he claimed to be
his wife, arrived in the Selah in 1901
from the east. The man was en-
ployed on the Selah ditch. Finally
the two decided to leave. They Sc
cured the money due them from the
company working on the ditch. A
Swede, who was IS years of age, Of
stocky build and with light hair, as
sisted the couple in taking their be-
longings They drove an excellent
team Neither the Swede nor the
couple were heard from again.
Every indication points to the Swede
as the guilty person. In the minds
