POPULAR Motel Wrecked.

The Olivia Hotel at Joplin was
blown up and badly whecked last
Sunday morning. The night
clerk went down into, the base
ment for something, and lighted
a match. Escaping gas exploded,
and the binding was badly
wrecked. The night clerk was
killed, and an occupant of the
hotel, Mrs. John Stephens, was
SO badly injured that her death is
expected. The building is six
stories high, yet the force of the
explosion damaged the roof.
Lace curtains and carpets were
blown out of the house into the
tops of trees, floors were heaved
up, windown across the street
we're broken out, and the damage
amounts away up into the thous-
ands. T.:
Mr.. and Mrs. H J. Millar, for
merly Of this, city,. live at the
Olivia, but fortunately they were
not injured.

MUST ANSWER
BEFORE JURY
BANK OFFICIALS ARE CHARGED
WITH FRAUDULENT USE
OF FUNDS.
TWO PRESIDENTS ARE ARRESTED
Both Are Under Bonds Of $4,000 to
Answer at the Next Term
Of Court.

OwENSBoRO, KY. May 1S.-Jas.
H. Parish, President Of the Ovens
boro Savings Bank and Trust Compar
ny, and T. S. Anderson, President OF
the Davies County Bank and Trust
Company, were both arrested today as
a result of the disclosures following
Their ecent failures of the two institu-
lions. Both men waived examination
and were held under bonds of $4,000
each to await the action of the grand
jury.
Thirty-one years ago James H. Par
IRISH began work as a clerk in the
bank owned at that time by T. S. An
derson. He learned the banking bus
mess from Mr.. Anderson. His ad-
vancement was rapid. In 1884 he
purchased the bank from Mr.. Ander-
son. The latter moved to Detroit.
Mich, and opened bank.
The rise of James H. Parrish in the
financial world was phenomenal. A
few months ago his bank had capital
stock of 100000 and deposits of over
81 900, 900. Mr. Anderson quit the
banking business in Detroit few
weeks ago. had deposits of 500, 900.
Tonight, James H. Parrish, presi-
dent and largest stockholder of the
Owensboro Savings Bank and Trust
Company, and T. S. Anderson, presi-
dent of the Daviess County Bank and
! Trust Company, the teacher and the
! pupil are both under bond Of $4,000
to appear before the August Daviess
county grand jury.
Anderson was arrested on two war
rants. One charges him with fraudu-
lently converting TO his own use $780,
600 of the funds of the bank. The
other warrant charges him with re-
ceiving deposiA when he knew his
bank to be insolvent.
Parrish was also arrested on two
j warrants, both charging him with re-
ceiving deposits when he knew his
bank to be insolvent. The arrest OF
Parrish and Anderson did not come
as a surprise to the citizens of Owens
boro. However, it created one OF the
most profound sensations in the his
tory of the count.
