the United States court to es-
tablish a preference for a claim
of S2,052 against the First Ma
tional bank of Carroll, la. which
went into the hands of a re-
ceiver on October 10 of last
year. The suit is against l. W..
Fowler, the receiver. In Octo-
Der, prior to the bank going in
to the hands Of a receiver, the
railroad company purchased
drafts from the First National
bank of Carroll on banks in
Chicago and Cedar Rapids, ag-
gregating are amount stated.
These drafts were not raid.
The railroads claim for prefer
ence is based on the allegation
that the Carroll bank at the
time it issued the drafts made
false representations as to its
solvency and as to having mon
ey on deposit with the banks
against which the drafts were
drawn. The claim for prefer
ence was rejected by Receiver
Fowler Nonpareil.

CARNEGIE MISJUDGED >FUTURE
 OF OIL INDUSTRY.

A somewhat similar incident in kind, though different in cause, is told by Andrew Carnegie on himself and a company of fellow investors that also strikingly illustrates the entire lack of faith in the abiding character of this industry. These men, some years after the first Openening of oil territory. pur- chased for about s40.0e0 an oil-produc- farm and. believing that early ex- haustion Of the then known fields might be looked for. they hurriedly 'constructed pond capable of holding 100000 barrels. which they planned to fill with oil and hold for the higher prices which they figured would pre- vail when the last of the supply was in Their pond leaked terribly, but they continued to replenish it by daily pumpings until several thousands of barrels had been wasted. The field did not exhaust as quickly as the patience of the partners did, but the farm netted them, selling at market prices, s1.000,000 in one year and their stocks sold on the market on q S5,00G.000 valuation basis.-From the Book Keep CT for December.
