MUCH BAD PAPER =.
i. IS DISCOVERED
Shortage Of Indiana Banker
Not Less Than $4,000.

Upton, Ind, July 3O-Willfam H.
Marker, cashier of the First National
bank and brother Of Noah r. Marker,
the missing assistant cashier, who is
charged with defalcations of over
100000, has resigned.
Many bad notes and checks are
turning up in the progress of the ex-
animation of the affairs of the bank
by Miller Weir, national bank ex-
aminer at large, and several of the
directors.
This paper, bearing forged sigma
lures of substantial citizens, repre-
serts, it Is said, thousands Of dollars
distracted from the banks funds. It
will be week or ten days before a
definite report of the condition of the
institution can be made. It is not
expected that the shortage will be
less than $4,000, and it may be
much more.
It is learned that before Noah Mar
ker left the city he transferred one of
his pieces of property to a farmer and
discounted the farmers note for $751;

MAY have HAD
!" BRAIN STORM

Caused by jealousy.

-Thaw for "various Purposes"
White Plains, N. Y, July 30.-Har-
ry K. Thaw resumed the witness
stand to again testify in his own be-
half in his proceeding to secure his
release from the Matteawan asylum.
Although he asserted that he was
not medically insane when he shot
Stanford White, Thaw said that he
might have had brain Storm" as
described by DR.. Britton D. Evans, but
that If he did it was not because of
a sudden attack of jealousy Susan
Merrill, Thaw's former landlady, re-
lated instances In which, she said,
Thaw whipped young women. Cliff
ford w. Hartridge testified that the
had paid out in the Thaw case, re-
ferred to by Mrs. Merrill, were de.
stroyed, but that the money came
from Mrs. ThaW."
Mr.. Hartridge produced the original
manuscript of several statements
which Thaw gave to the newspapers in
1906. Thaw's counsel objected to the
reading of some of these statements,
but in one case requested that Mr..
Jerome be allowed to read the paper
to the court. In answer to a cues
ton whether he knew "Mrs. Reid"
Hartridge said he knew a number of
Mrs. Reids."
On cross-examination Mr.. Morschau
ser reverted to Hartridge's suit
against Mrs. William G. Thaw. 1T in
wolves about $4,000 now" remarked
the witness, "but it may involve
more"
Hartridge admitted that he had al
ready received 100000 from Mrs.
Thaw, but said it was for "various
purposes" -.
Thaw's demeanor was as unruff1ed
as it was on the previous day and he
swung his palm leaf fan without ap-
parent nervousness. While Jerome
hunted through his papers Thaw
turned and talked smilingly with JUS
tice Mills.
Evelyn Thaw had not sat three min
utes when she went into an anteroom
for consultation with Assistant Dis
trict Attorney Murphy from Jerome's
Office. She returned in a few mo-
ments and Thaw's were perhaps the
only eyes in the room that were not
upon her as she passed to her seat.

AT The MERCY OF THE MOB
Situation at Barcelona, Spain, Ex-
ceedjngiy Grave.

~e>
ceedjngiy Grave.
Madrid, July !d.-Much apprehen-
sion is felt here over the situation in
the provinces of Catalonia, Tarragona
and Corona, where the constitutional
guarantees have been suspended. The
latest official reports from Barcelona,
which were considerably delayed, in
dictate that the city is almost at the
mercy of the mob.J-zss
The notorious anarchists, Cardinal
and Herreros, are represented as be-
ing the leaders in the rioting, which
was accomplished by incendiar1sm and
the destruction of property. The con-
vent Of Merastas was taken by assault
and the church of st. Paul and the
congregational schools of st. Antoine
were burned. The captain general
and his staff were fired upon as they
were riding through the boulevard
Paraleto.
f.. Bands of strikers were dispatched
from Barcelona to the surrounding
country to destroy the railroad, with
the object of preventing the arrival of
troops to reinforce the Barcelona gar
rison. The troops from Valencia
were forced to disembark at Vendrell,
seventeen miles from Taragona, from
where they drove the strikers before
them.
The conservative newspapers of
Madrid protest against the revolution
while the country is fighting to main
tain honor on foreign soil and they
appeal to the public to sink political
differences and support the govern
ment in the vigorous repression of an
archy and sedition at Barcelona.

Revolutionary Disorders Prevail in
Widely Separated Parts Of the
country-YouthfuI Ruler Hurries to

Madrid, July fixing Alfonso has
issued a decree proclaiming martial
law and the suspension of constitu-
tlonal guarantees throughout Spain.
The kings proclamation of martial
law throughout the country followed
his arrival from San Sebastian, from
which point he had been summoned
by Premier Maura. The official dis
patches Of the night had continued to
show an alarming condition of af.
fairs at Barcelona and neighboring
towns in Catalonia. ' . r.
"A special meeting of the cabinet
was summoned. The situation in the
disturbed districts, as well as the crit
1cal condition of the Spanish military
forces in Morocco, was fully discussed.
The result of the conference was the
Issuance of the kings decree proclaim
Ing martial law throughout Spain and
the suspension of all constitutional
guarantees.
: The latest reports from Barcelona
shows the condition there increasing

the convent q the Little Sisters of the
Poor. This followed the riotous dis
orders when the mob assaulted and
then burned several Of the religious
establishments. 49,.
New disorders are now reported
from two other interior points, Alfoi
and Rioja. This shows that the zone
of popular agitation is spreading be-

is affecting the. Va1encians.

COOPERATION SHOULD BEGIN AT HOME,

CU.UfEhRlIUN ShUUlD BEGIN Al HUME.
The number of people who fail to
live up to their promises is nothing
as compared to the number of towns
which fail to live up to their news
papers, remarks the Walker Pilot.
The popularity is that many towns
give support to outside institutions
and in many a mans home you will
find a half dozen outside publica-
tons, paid for in advance, while he
either borrows his neighbours paper
for the home news or goes without
it. 1t works the same way as does
the patronizing of catalogue houses
to the upbuilding of some other
locality instead of the town one
lives in, by sending money abroad
when the price ard benefits of the
home article is the same.

Jackson, Mimi, July 30.-Dr. Frank
R. Hansen, defaulting school secretary
of Lakefield, died in his cell in the
