CAPITAL TRACTION
NEW BONDS LISTED

Bidding on the new issue of Capital
Traction 5 per cent gold bonds. of
which s2.520.00O are now about TO be is
sued, began at a lively rate on the
Washington Stock Exchange today as
soon as announcement was made by
President Hume of favorable action by
the governing committee.
Starting at l03. the bids mounted by
leaps and bounds until 1851 was
reached before any transaction was re-
corded. At this point sellers appeared
and the enthusiasm received a check,
although around lO7 the demand was
urgent for almost unlimited quantities.
At the selling rate today the investor
receives a return of about 4.65 per cent
on his purchase. while the shareholder
who sells gets a premium of 1.6S on
each share OF stock.
Which is to say that the long-expected
melon resolves itself into an extra
dividend equal to LES per share on some
entire issue.
Should the balance OF the bonds, when
issued, bring an equal premium, the
total extra would approximate s. per
share.
There was also some liberal dealing

Waterloo, June 13.-On April 80, 1878
a draft was issued by the Leavitt &
johnson bank for $3.50 and made pay
able to John McNulty. Not until We'd
nesday, nearly thirty years after 1t was
issued, was it presented for payment
by a relative of the person for whom
it was made. Since the draft was
written, John McNulty has passed
away, also Theodore Jenney, who
wrote the draft and was cashier OF
the Leavitt & Johnson bank for many
years. Mr.. Jenney's writing was cas-
lily recognized by j. e. Sedgwick, who
is now president of the bank. The
"Leavitt & Johnson" signature was the
same as on hundreds of others made
by Mr.. Jenney, and under the firm
name appeared the initial "J''.
The draft is quite an oddly and
never before has such an old claim
been presented for payment at that
bank 1t bore the original internal
revenue stamp IF g, centA which
was placed on at the time of the civil
war. The record of the draft on the
banks books showed that it had never
been presented for payment and was
charged up as lost
Mrs. McNulty discovered the draft
while looking thru a number of old
papers that belonged to her husband
In one of the envelopes she found the
draft and supposed because of it's age
1t would not be honored. However
Miss Rose Daley presented it for pay
ment Wednesday morning and received
the full amount called for.
The draft differs in several ways
from the drafts of today and was is
sued when the institution was known
as the Leavitt & Johnson bank. 1t
was made a national bank in 1908.
The date of establishment is given as
1855 and it lacks only "a few months of
being the oldest bank in Iowa. On
one end of the draft is printed the
word Iowa. so that only the. word
Waterloo appears on the date line.
The draft number was 1851 and the
Merchants National bank of Chicago
was named as the clearing house.
The words duplicate unpaid" APP
pear on the draft. but this form has
been abolished on the drafts of more
recent date Notwithstanding the
same rule governs now as did at that
time.

Mason City, June 1.-two firms in
this city, that of the Nichols Edwards

by a clumsy forger who secured from
each firm $40 after passing a check
to which he had signed the name Of
William Lantz. farmer, living five
miles in the country. The checks were
drawn on the Iowa State bank and tho
passed Saturday were not detected till
today.
The sheriff has arrested two sus-
pects but both Of these men when
brought before the men who received
the checks proved to be entire strang-
ers. The face Of the forger is familiar
to the two firms, but as yet no clue
has been discovered which seems to
lead to tangible results. Mr.. Lantz
says he had a date with man who
bears some resemblance to the de-
scription given of the forger, Saturday.
He was to meet him here and to finish
an agreement whereby he was to work
as a farmland during the summer.
There is some belief that this fellow

Was Brother OF Webster
City Woman
ORIGIN OF PECULIAR SECT
In the EARLY Forties, the "shakers" or
"MiIlerites,' Organized, Gaining
Many Converts, Gave Away Their
Goods and Money, and Awaited the
Coming Of Christ.
Special TO Times-Republican.


Webster City, June 13.-Henry Bear,
the last of the famous Shakers" who
is dead at his home in Preston, o., was
a brother of Mrs. John Frank of this
city. The Shakers" or "Mtllerites,
originated back in the forties. when
thousands were converted on relig-
ious wave that looked to the early COM
ing of Christ. AS each new convert
accepted this strange belief, he gave up
all his earthly possessions in hope of
the near approach of the second COM
ing Bear was the, last survivor of
this most peculiar sect.
The Millerites subscribed to their be-
lief with much enthusiasm. Cincinnati
had hundreds of believers, and like
those of similar faith the country over,
they gave away their goods and money.
Then, attiring themselves in purest
white, they mounted. to the housetops
to await the coming of the Lord.
When the manifestations from above
failed to appear the Millerites returned
from the housetops, where they had
prayed and sung all night long to the
skies, which remained unresponsive,
and they found themselves stripped of
money and all other earthly possess
sions. 10 was said by the more jealous
that there had been a miscalculation,
and instead Of Sept 20, 1S43, being the
correct time, it was perhaps in the fol-
lowing October, or maybe in the fol-
lowing year, when all true believers
would be caught up and transported
bodily to eternal glory.
Bear was a man of striking appear
ance. He was tall, thin and as erect
as an Indian. His features We're cast
in a dignitied mold. In fact it was
said of him that he was counterpart
of Lafayette He wore his hair down
to his shoulders. With his broad
trimmed hat well set on his head, his
gray coat and substantial trousers Of
the same material and broad soled
shoes, and his person devoid of jew
elry or display of any character, Elder
Henry Bear exercised a moral influence
on the people of his community and
was respected by all who knew him.
Probably not in many years will an
other sect like the Millerites spring up
and in the death of Bear, that religion
is now completely swallowed up in the
maelstrom of sects now competing for
Christian converts. The passing of the
sect is like losing a link out OF the
dim past, for the religion is not one
that appeals to present day students of
the Bible.

OPPOSE COMMISSION PLAN.
Iowa Federation of Labor Condemns
Municipal Reform Scheme.

Keokuk. June 13.-Resolutions at
lacking President Roosevelt and chaFs
ing him with the abuse of his high Of
flee we're adopted by the Iowa state
Federation of Labor at its convention
here yesterday.
TIL, censure came as protest
against the presidents action in the
matter of the trial of Meyer and Hay
wood in Idaho and was based upon MS
letter of some weeks ago in which ne
said that Hartman, If he continued IN
his course. would be as undesirable
citizen as the defendants in the no
torous case now in progress.
The convention also went on record
in opposition to the Des, Moines plan
Of municipal government.
The resolutions were as follows:
whereas, The thirty second general
assembly enacted law providing Tor
the government of cities with popN-
latior. of $4,000 and over better known
as the Des Moines bill.
whereas: The results of COM
mission system of government In Gal

ductlOn in wages, as WeHAdS al uiiu uS
proportion of taxes levied on the work

Whereas: A campaign for institute

question is being agitated In other cit
les as well. therefore, be 1t
Resolved, by the fifteenth annual
convention of the Iowa State Fedora
ton of Labor, that the interest OF the
working people can best be subserVed
by retaining the ward system in mu-

aiming at Arrangement of the rights
of the people. our moral support, ex-
pressing our hope that they may sue
