KNICKERBOCKER INSIDERS

Bank

New York Nov. i5.-Unless means are

IL Is known that number of the in

the trust company knew on oct q that
the institution must suspend and We're

such creditors of the trust company upon

Just before the failure. IL was learned
yesterday. the National Bank OF Com
merce compelled the officers OF the
Knickerbocker Trust Co. TO hand over
81 10000 OF gilt edge securities. The
Bank OF Commerce is jointly controlled
by Thomas r. Ryan and j. II. Morgan
q Co. Should the receivers decide that
restitution shall be made by those who
got large amounts of the assets OF the
company just before the suspension the
Bank OF Commerce may be called upon
TO return the Sl500.OO0 worth OF securities
As a result OF conferences held yes
terday there will probably be an amalga-

II Is known that some OF the directors
OF the knickeTbocker, when they knew
suspension was an absolute certainty, re-
fused 90 withdraw dollar OF their per-
sonal deposits, but preteEred to stand on
an absolute equality with the outside de-
positors, even though II might mean
heavy loss to them. One of these direc-
tors had 100000 on deposit with the
trust company and he refused 10 with
draw a penny OF the large sum. These
directors, IL is said. feel very bitterly to-
ward their associates who took advantage
OF their inside knowledge and got out
their money Just before the crash came.

sion 100000 was withdrawn from the

ELLOREE DISPENSARY
Will Be Closed On and After the Last
Of April.

The County Dispensary Board will
not rescind its action ordering the
closing of the Elloree dispensary un-
less the matter is taken before the
courts, which is not likely in the face
of the fact that nearly every body in
Elloree want the dispensary there
closed. Senator Raysor and Attorney
General Lyons agrees as to the law.
Both Messrs. Raysor and Lyon seem
to be in sympathy with this board
and the people Of Elloree, and Mr.
Lyon is reported as suggesting plan
by which the board may evade the
law in this case.
The suggestion advises the board
to destroy the dispensary, which the
law says must remain a d1spensarJ
until an election is held. but sor'
of negative purpose This means
they must withdraw from 1t theil
support in measure and pay the
dispenser there merely nominal sal

sibly afford to accept.

Should Be Perfected.

The Florence Times says Senator
Raysor of Orangdburg, one of the
best lawyers of the state has given
out an interview in which he sup
ports Attorney General Lyons in
depreciation of the Carey-Cothran
law in regard to the closing Of the
dispensaries, which has been {. so
much discussed. He says that the
inability to close existing dispense
ries is defect in the "local option"
law" The Times then goes on to
say; 3tThe truth Of the matter is
that there were many defects IN
that law which might have been cor
rected if the advocates Of it had not
been so much afraid that the state
dispensary men woule have out ma
nouvered them on the floor Of the
house,and they, having the majority
refuse to allow anything to be
heard from the other side. The
Carey-Cothran law is not a local op-
ton law, it has mighty little option
about it. May be next year they
will allow some of the intelligence
and experience of the otherlside come
in to help make a law that will be Of
benefit to the state. "

Weather Forecast.

While we are not a prophet or the
son of a prophet but it is becoming
a popular fad to give weather fore
casts, so here is our prediction for
this month: During the first half
there will be some brisk winds from
the north, but every day the SUI will
rise, and often there'll be gloomy
skies; some days, however, may be
fair, with southern winds and mel
low air. Those things will happen
sure we know, because they always
happen so. =,
This good months moon will full,
and office seekers work their pull. "
Some lucky ones will land the prize,
while other men esteemed aswise will
fail in all they undertake and find
they've made a sad mistake, for
Charlatans to fortune ride while
modest worth is thrust aside. These
things will happen, we know because
they've always happened so,
In this good month ne Of 1905, gSi tn; the
boys and girls will have fun: They.!!
go to parties dance and spark; they.l!
kiss each other in the dark; they'll
marry and begin their Life, a happy,
hopefnl man and wife, and sometime
they will own a kid, just like their
dads and mam1nies did, These things
will happen. sure, we know, because
they've always happened so.

PURE HORSE SENSE.
Animal Runs Away and Then Sum-
mons the Doctor.


mons the Doctor.
The existence of what is termed
pure horse sense was demonstrated
recently in Washington, D: c., by the
horse owned by j. H. Wudeman. The
animal became unmanageable while
being driven and ran away, throwing
the owner to the ground, where be
landed in an unconscious condition.
Then the horse walked up to the
door of Dr.. H. Wells Woodward and
rang the electric push button bell un-
til the doctor came out and went to
the aid CT the injured man.
While the doctor was MAKING
preliminary examination OF MI.
Wurdeman, the horse stood quietly
and even after the driver had Deen
taken into the doctors Office to have
a laceration of the forehead se"eo
up, the horse remained waiting.
'sI thought at first the horse was
coming in to superintend the opera
ton DR.. Woodward says. 1T was
the most remarkable thing ever
heard of, and had I not personally
witnessed the whole affair, say
frankly I would not have believed 1t.
DR.. Woodward and a maid were
brought to the door by the persls-
tent ringing of the bell. Opening
the glass doors they saw the horse
standing on the porch rubbing us
nose vigorously on the nicle-plateo
sign. When the mail screamed, the
horse stuck his head in the vestlDuIe
as though looking for someone.
