isis Hopkins that DELIGHTFULLY."-
fragrant play of country life in the
Hcosier state, which is now on it's
tenth tour, has been booked for an
engagement at the Grand for one
week, beginning Sunday, matinee at
400. Miss Rose Melville, the origina.
tor. of the peculiarly fascinating type
OF stage character represented by
isis Hopkins" is playing the title role
again and is supported by a company,
the equal of any she has had yet.
"Obadiah," the undertaken, is one of
the quaint character bits of the play.
He carries tape measure with him
always to measure prospective GUS
toners; a hollow cough fills him with
JOY and rumor of accident, death and
devastation are his constant hope. He
writes epitaphs of rare wit and humor
in which the follies and ,foibles of
the good people of Posey County are
hit off with delightful simplicity. He
wears an exaggerated costume of
deep mourning and lives in the hope
of death.
Mr.. ]. r.. Stirling, Miss Melville's
manager, has put out an entirely new
production and the play has been am
plifed and improved until now it has
reached the acme of perfection. The
cOstuming is all new and the special
ties which have been so delightful a
feature of previous engagements have
been changed and added to until now
there is left nothing to be desired
This is especially true of the famous
seminary scene, which has been i'm
proved to the uttermost.

trustee for the House estate, is
on the grand jury now in service.
Mr.. Shapiro is expected to return
to Houston to assist in Straighten-
ing out the affairs of his company
as soon as possible. When last
heard from he was in Michigan
and at that time is said to have in
tended to'visit Montana. He was
in company with a Chicago capital
ist, and it was expected that be-
tween $500, 900 and S5OO,0O0 would
be invested in the warehouse com
pany before a month had passed.
The capitalist had previously en-
gagged himself to visit some mines
in Montana and Mr.. Shapiro had
planned to go with him west rather
than miss the opportunity Of i'm
pressing the opportunity for in
vestment upon tn man of means.
Realizing that difficulty might be
encountered in Houston before he
could return, Mr.. j. Lester Williams
was given authority to come south
as a personal representative.
Meantime the developments have
been rapid. The books Of the com
pany are not to be explained be-
cause the book-keepers are out Of
service. While the offices are still
open, and the Secretary, Mr.. Her
bert ID. Martin, is still at his desk,
operations are at a standstill.
The proceedings mark the pune
ture of a bubble that has been blown
to gigantic size, and at a remark
able effort. For months no action
has been to strenuous to keep
the concerns afloat, and with the
issue of failure staring Shapiro in
the face, the means adopted have
at times been such as are likely
to provoke a considerable amount
of controversy.
David H. Shapiro was the first
man to crystalize the farmers hold
ing movement into a concrete pos
sibility. His operations have been
watched with fascinating interest.
In reality they resolved themselves
into a proposition for the ultimate
control Of the actual cotton supply
and at one time a company cap
itaIized at S2,5O0,OOO was in the
field with the magic name at the
head Of its official roster.
Although young man, Shapiro
has dealt in large figures. Coming
from the little town of Madison
vile, he sprang quickly into a place
of financial prominence. For three
and half years he maintained his
position against great odds.
His first venture was the build
ing of cotton warehouse at Mad
isonville for the storing of the
aeecy product. The company or
ganized there was the Farmers Cot
ton Warehouse Company. 1t was.
, success. Cotton farmers saw in
The experiment the opportunity for
the holding movement.
Coming to Houston the Farmers
and Bankers Warehouse Building
Association was formed for the
building of warehouses over the
state. That, too, proved success
ful, and many buildings were
erected under the contract. The

sidered the absolute security of the
investment, and the freedom from
taxation oi the money SO invested,
as suffic ent inducement to buy
bonds.
A. The interest, to the extent
of many millions per year, has been
paid in advance during a long pc
riod of years. This is shown by
official reports. On page 203 of
the Laws Relating to Loans and
Currency, will be found the law
(Section 3699) under which this
practice OF paying interest in ad-
vance has become a, standing re-
proach to our Government. The
law was passed by the Republicans
in 1864, but the Democrats con-
tinued it in force.
During my brief and breezy ca
reer in Congress, / introduced a
bill to stop this payment Of interest.
but the Democrats smothered it in
the committee-room.
5. Having salted his cash down
in bond which pays no tax, and
which runs no risk, and which can
only fail when the Republic dies.
The Bond holder now takes a step
forward. He lays his bond in a
vault VIII ch the Government pro-
vides for him, takes a receipt there
for, and demands S10O Of notes for
each of S1OO of bonds. This S1OO
of notes is issued to him in blank,
but the Government guarantee is
back of each note. He signs the
face of the note and Immediately
it becomes what the National Bank
act descr.b bes as money 1t is
called National Currency and is
practically made a legal tender.
Hence, the bond holder gets
money on his property, while the
land owner and the produce owner
can not do so.
6. He can lend the S100 at s
per cent. when it cost him nothing.
True, he pays 1-2 Of l per cent tax
but that amount barely covers the
labor cost of engraving the notes
and storing the bonds.
/, Z. The Government agrees to
take the National banker notes
in payment Of taxes, excises, public
lands, and all other duties to the
United States, except import du-
ties" All salaries, and other debts
due by the United States to indi-
viduals or corporations of this coun-
try shall be legally pay able in these

" <AANA|AAO ~ ~ N<N<HAA NAAN \ I'M w
IN BANKRUPTCY.
Petition Filed by Creditors of Con-
Germs Headed by David H.
Shapiro. 4
A petition in involuntary bank
ruptcy was filed in the United
States .court Friday evening by
creditors Of the Farmers and Bank
ers Warehouse Building Association,
of which Mr.. David HI. Shapiro
is president, asking that the CON
cern be declared a bankrupt. The
petition is filed by Reynolds Fisher
the Adoue-Blaine Hardware Com
pany and the State Printing Com
pany, all of Houston, alleging that
the building association is indebted
to an amount in excess of $1,000,
and that it insolvent, and has
admitted its inability to meet its
obligations. The claims of the pc
titioning creditors are as follows:
Reynolds Fisher, S437.35; Aduoe-
Blaine Hardware Company, S235;
State Printing Company, S103,1O.
An answer has been filed by
J. O. Brown, acting manager Of
the Association, and A. M. Souza,
the Treasurer, admitting the COM
pany's insolvency, and joining in
the application to be adjudged a
bankrupt. Among other things the
answer contains the following state
ment: "This application is signed
by us as treasurer and acting man
ager, because of the absence of
the president, David HI. Shapiro "
Judge Waller T. Burns made an
order Of adjudication and referred
the case to Judge Henry L. Borden,
the referee in bankruptcy.
Action in bankruptcy was pre-
cipitated by suits brought at the
instigation Of the trustee for the
T. w. House estate. The affairs
of the Farmers and Bankers Ware
house Company and other corpora
tions headed by David HI. Shapiro
have ong been known to be COM
plicated. Negotiations were pend
ing however, by which it was pro-
posed to re-finance the companies.
Mr.. Shapiro is now said to be some
where between Michigan and Mon
tana, supposedly with a Chicago
financier who had been mentioned
as probable hacker for the Hous-
ton concern. Mr.. J. Lester Will
Jams, personal representative of
Mr.. Shapiro, arrived in Houston
Friday evening, and is now en-
gagged in an effort to straighten
out a situation that presents more
than one attribute Of interest.
The liabilities Of David H.
Shapiro exceed S5OO,OOO. His as
lsets are impossible to estimate,
although they are said to exceed
the liabilities, with time given for
realization and collection. Under
the circumstances, those who have
Investigated the situation antici-
|pate a condition that may involve
an endless amount Of litigation and
/ the probability Of extended inquiry
into a state Of affairs that is so
badly tangled as toshave G ven the
grand jury a chance for the exam
nation Of witnesses. Mr. Joe Rice,
