learned at this convention that at one
time the water OF the sheyenne had
emptied into the James river where
they mingled together on their way Il

why he had never been able to learn

dbetment says was unlawfnlly pecuni-
arily interested as a beneficiary in

because Thomas knew that the TAIL
ure Of Thomas. MacLAy & Co. would
mean decline in the prices Of secur-
tiles put up by the arm as collateral
on the loans. It was agreed that the
loan made by the Provident Lite to

Lay & Co., which was done and the

The second indictment accuses
Thomas Of 'unlawfully receiving q
valuable thing for procuring q loan
from the insurance company" in

tho Provident Life loaned $4,000 to
the Union Bank OF Brooklyn, the loan
being procured and recommended by
Thomas. Five days before that Thorn
as had received q loan OF 100000
from the Union bank. The indictment
says that Thomas agreed with the
Union bank to recommend a loan Of
$4,000 to the bank by the Provident
Life and he carried out his part Of
the contract and that in consideration
the bank made the loan to him OF
100000.
Orlando r. Thomas was also cus-
toner Of Thomas, MacLay & CO., and
according to the Indictment he had
granted several loans to the company.
On March s, 1906. Thomas, MacLay &
Go. owed the Hudson Trust company
, ~, 200. the loan being payable on de-
mand. The Trust company demanded
payment Of the loan, but Thomas, Mac.
Lay & Co. only had s25, 900. On March

Thomas was a director. had loaned
$4,000 to the New Amsterdam Nation
al bank on condition that the bank
should lend It to Thomas. MacLey &
Co., and on the following day Thorn
as, MacLay & Go. paid the loan Of

+ In that wear, the American army OF
Invasion moved over the trail into
