A GUARANTY FUND MIDDLE
Oklahoma State Bankers Association
Find Record incomplete and
inaccurate Up to March 1910.

Guthrie, Ok, April 27.-The report
OF the condition of the bank guarantee
deposit fund made to the State Bank
ers' association of Oklahoma by firm
of public accountants of Kansas City,
Mo-, became public. The report coy-
ers all transactions involving the fund
from the time the law Went into
effect in March, 1908, until January
30, 1911. 1t was printed under the di-
rection of the State Bankers associa-
ton and a letter from the association
accompanying the report says the
duty of making a report on the guar
antee funds condition devolYed upon
the officers of the association, after
waiting for more than three years for
the state officials to make a full, COM
plete and comprehensive report to
the state bankers without avail"
A preface to the report, signed by
the auditing company, says:
Our examination contemplated
complete audit of affairs of each bank
which failed or has required as
sistance, but such audit has not been
possible. In the case of the Columbia
Bank and Trust company, which fail
ed in Oklahoma City, September 20,
1909, certain absolutely essential rec
ords have disappeared.
Apart from individual banks, the
records of the banking board are in
complete and inaccurate from time of
organization until the last few
months. We have found no intelligi.
BILE records prior to March, 1910.

AN ENGLISH PAPERS VIEW
PRESIDENT TAFT's ARBITRATION
PROPOSITION DENOUNCED.
The London Post Accuses Our Gov.
eminent of Being Hostile and
Trying to Disrupt the Empire.

London, April 27.-The Morning
Post, always suspicious and often
hostile toward America, Eliminates
against the proposed arbitration
treaty between Great Britain and the
United States and, "on behalf of
those who have perceived the inward
ness of the situation" protests against
the forthcoming meeting at the Guild
hall. at which Premier Asquith, Mr..
Balfour, the Archbishop of Canter-
bury and others among England's
most prominent men have promised TO
attend. The paper urges all patriotic
citizens to remain away.
The editorial says the outburst OF
enthusiasm here for Sir Edward
Grey's acceptance of President Taft's
offer was due solely to the fact that
original proposal was for the aroitra-
ton of all disputes without reserva-
ton, but that since then MI. Taft has
exempted a large class of questions
and has recognized the right of the
senate of the United States to decide
whether any dispute is a%rbitrable.
The Guild hall meeting, therefore, it
asserts. is taking place under false
pretenses.
Another of the Posts reasons for
its attitude is that This offer was
made by a government whose hostil-
ity towards this country has since
become manifest"
at is now clear continues the edi-
torial, THAT, at the time President
Taft was offering unrestricted arbltra-
ton, he was doing his utmost to dis
rupt the British empire"

THE PROGRESSIVES ARE MAD
THEY ARE REFUSED PLACES ON
SENATE COMMITTEES.
They Claim That With 10 Members
They Are Entitled to o~ne.Foarth
of all Assignments.

Washington, April 27.-Progressiye
Republicans in the senate OF the
United States are breathing de-
iiance to the regulars who ran the
steam roller over them in the party
caucus and kept LaFollette off the
committee on interstate commerce.;
Mr.. Cummins off finance and Mr.. Bris-
tow off of the foreign relations.
The progressive senator's accom-
plished only two things in the fight
for committee assignments. SO far as
results show on the surface. They
succeeded in placing Senator Bourne
on the committee on appropriations,
and they forced the regulars to take
Senator Lorimer off the committee on
interstate commerce. Lorimer was
placed on the committee on the Dis
trict of Columbia.
Senator LaFollette wanted a place
on the interstate commerce commit
tee. The progressiyes urged that his
work in railroad regulation as COVER
nor of Wisconsin, and his extensive
acquaintance WILL TIC oubJClt jill lhob
account entitled him to a place on
that committee.
Mr.. Cummins magnanimously elimi-
mated himself and moved that Mr..
Bristow be put on finance but that
was voted down in caucus by a vote
of 80 to II, BY a vote of 81 to II
a motion to give Mr.. LaFollette q
place on interstate commerce like
wise was rejected.
The insurgent leaders held a ses-
sion to determine a curse of action.
1t is understood that Mr.. DaFollette
will make a short speech that will put
into the record the attitude of the
progressives on the question of the
organization Of the senate. Mr.. La
Toilette asserts that the progressives
have been unfairly and unjustly treat
ed. With 10 members of the senate
they claim title to one-fourth of all
committee places.

SWIFTLY RUSHED
THEM INTO JAIL
The Three Alleged Oynamiters
Reached Los Angeles,
NO ATTEMPT AT RESCUE
Nor Was There Any Hostile Demon
stration Made Against the Pris-
oners by the Crowds That
Awaited Arrival.

Los Angeles, April 27.-The three
alleged dynamiters are in the county
Jail awaiting that sovereign exercise
of authority which is termed Due
process of law"
Their arrival was of the tensity OF
the dramatic, the end of act one of a
situation that holds promise of vast
and far reaching import.
Their transfer from the California
Limited of the Santa Fe was accom-
plished with such celebrity as to be
confusing; ~outWardly, however, the
program of the police worked with
the precision and swiftness of a well
regulated dynamo.
J, w. Mcnamara, alias J. B. Bryce,
who is charged with murder in con-
nection with the Times disaster and
Ortie McManigal. self confessed dyna-
miter of wholesale and terrifying pro-
portions, were taken from the train at
the Pasadena station,
Within half a minute they were in
the sheriff's automobile, shackled and
guarded before, behind and on every
hand, within % minutes the double
doors of the Jail had clanked behind
them.
}. j. Mcnamara, the we'll poised,
calm, imperturbed secretary of the
Structural Iron Workers and Bridge
Mems International organization was
similarly hustled from the same train
at Raymond station; an automobile
also awaited his arrival and with a
speed that equalled that of the sher-
ifs car he was landed in Jail a few
minutes after the others.
There was no demonstration either
at Pasadena or before the county Jail,
save such as would be made by the
ordinary occurrences and inquistive
crowd.
There were many who said nothing,
whose silence possibly was ominous
of unusual emotion.
If so, however, there was no q
dence that, in the regard bestowed by
any man there was aught of sig
nificance. No hand was held out to
stay the officers in the fulfillment of
their mission; no voice vas raised in
protest or indignation on behalf OF
the men accused of destroying prop
erty and lives with the utmost cum
ming and deli5eration.
Though there was no hostile dem
onstration either against the officers
or prisoners and no effort was made
embarrass the former the corps of
local and Chicago detectives and
Burns operatives handled the situa-
ton in a way to forestall any acct
dent, any of those subtle movements
in the crowds which have, before this,
preceded an attempt at rescue.

GOOD PROSPECTS FOR WHEAT
Secretary Coburn Finds That $780,
600 Acres in Kansas is in Better
Condition Than Last Year.

Topeka, April 27.-The Kansas
state board of agriculture has issued
a report on the area and condition OF
the states winter wheat on April n.
Correspondents indicate hat the area
sown in the fall of 1910 Appropriated
$3.50, 900 acres, or more by about 265,-
900 acres than in the year preceding.
OF the total area sown it appears
from the reports that a fraction more
than % per cent is such that the
ground will be devoted to other crops,
principally oats and corn. Deducting
this % per cent, which is principally
in the south central and western coun-
ties, leaves, in round numbers, $780,
600 acres that will be allowed to
stand, on which the condition aver
ages 1854 per cent, as compared with
the customary 100 taken to represent
a good average stand and satisfactory
condition. The April condition a
yea ago was 76.

THE HoLsTEIN-sPRADLEY FEUD.
Affair Out of Which Grew
Charge Of Murder.

The Holstein homicide case is ex-
pected to come UP for trial in Aiken
this week. An Aiken dispatch says
the case has created more interest
tAanzany that has been tried in that
county in many years. In this case
death of Mrs. Spradley, aunt Of Co
lumbus Spradley, with severely whip
six members of the Holstein family,
one of the most prominent in the
county, are charged with causing the
ping Mrs. Spradley's husband, Ben
Spradley, and of whipping young Co.
lumbus Spradley and compelling him
to leave the community.
The Holsteins and a neighbor, Doc
Cockrel, are alleged to have visited
the home of Ben and Mrs. Nettie
Spradley about six weeks ago giving
Columbus and Ben Spradley a sound
thrashing. The excitement is said to
have caused the death of Mrs. Sprad-
ley, though this is denied by the Hol-
stems, who state they will have no
ifficulty in showing that she was well
and hearty after the affair Of that
Wednesday night. Ben Spradley re-
ceived but ONE severe blow, but be
hoyered between life and death for
several days, finally recovering. Co.
lumbus Spradley disappeared and
was not located for several days, but
when found it was ascertained that
he had not been, seriously injured.
This unfortunate affair hinged
about the attentions of Columbus
Spradley to Miss Gussie Holstein, a
pretty and intelligent girl. When the
young man visited school entertain
ment in that neighborhood some
weeks before he lost his heart to the
winsome girl, but met with the vio-
lent opposition of her relatives. On
the day Of the whipping young sprad-
ley had gone to the home OF his un-
Gle, Ben spradley. near the Holsteins
from his home in Augusta.
