ton of Representative oscar Under
wood given by Representative Henry
d. Flood. of Virginia. who seconded
the Alabaman's nomination for the
presidency. Mr.. Flood spoke in part
as follows:

SCHLESWlC AUTO
TURNS TURTLE
Ernie and ArIo Schmidt, Of Schies-
wig, Have Narrow Escape in
Auto Accident Sunday.
ERNIE SUFFERS A BROKEN LEG
Taken to Hospital at Ida Grove, and
at Last Reports Was Getting
Along Nicely.

Ernie Schmidt, of Schleswig, was
seriously injured last Sunday morning
while out automobile riding in COM
pany with a brother ArlO. They were
riding out near the Morgan cemetery,
and when nearing a sharp turn in the
road, the younger brother attempted
to put on the brake and in doing so
the car slipped and turned turtle.
Both young men were pinned under
meath the car. Ernie Schmidt sus-
tanned a broken leg and Arlo was
more or less injured. Notwithstand-
ing the fact that Ernie was suffering
from a broken leg, he crawled around
to the other side and raised the car
so that his brother was able to crawl
out. The young brother then carried
Ernie to a nearby house and tele-
phoned for Drs. Schultz and Jones,
who went out and conveyed the young
men to Schleswig. Later it was
deemed advisable to take Ernie to the
hospital at Ida Grove for treatment.
The latest report is that he is getting
along very we'll and will soon be able
to return home.

RETlRES FROM THE
BANKING BUSINESS
j. w. Miller, Jr., for Past Ten Years
Connected With Bank Of Deni-
son Resigns Position.
ENTERS BUSINESS FOR HIMSELF
Will Conduct General Abstract, Real
Estate and Insurance Business
Well Qualified for Business

Mr.. J. w. Miller, Jr., has resigned
his position at the Bank of Denison,
and will leave that institution Sep
tember first. Mr.. Miller intends to
remain in Denison and will engage in
business for himself. He has pur-
chased the abstract books of Mr..
Theodore Walker and will conduct a
general abstract, insurance and real
estate business. He has not as yet
decided on an Office location, but will
be situated soon after the first OF the
month. Mr. Miller has been connect
ed with the Bank of Denison for the
past ten years, coming to that con-
cern almost directly after graduating
from the State University, from which
he graduated ip the law department.
During his long connection with the
bank Mr.. Miller has made an extens-
i've acquaintanceship extending over
the entire county. He had entire
charge of the abstract and insurance
business of the bank and his expert
ence has fitted him for an enVlaDle
business career. He is in position
financially to carry on an extensive
business, and will no doubt prove
valuable asset to the business circles
of our city. Mr.. Miller has always
been found straightforward in all his
dealings and clients with whom he
comes in contact will ever find him
so. The Review wishes him success.

AWAY AT ARl0N
George Huffman Crushed Beneath
Heavily Loaded Wagon While
Trying to Save Young Man
LOAD PASSES OVER HIS BODY
Funeral Held Sunday, Was Largely
Attended by Friends Rrom All
Over the County.

On last Wednesday morning Mr..
George Huffman, of Arion, was fatally
injured while working in the harvest
field on his farm near Arion.
1t appears that Mr.. Huffman had
just finished loading a heavy wagon
with grain when his team became
frightened and started to run. He
was being assisted by a young son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Nate Haines, who reside
on his farm. The boy was on the
load, and, fearing that he would be
injured, Mr.. Huffman sprang before
the frightened horses and was knock
ed down and run over.
He was kicked about the head and
shoulders and the heavy load passed
over his body. Kind neighbors i'm
mediately took him to the home of his
uncle in Arion, where he was given
every possible care, but it was found
that he was injured internally and he
passed away early Friday morning.
George Ross Huffman, the second
son of Silas and Florence Huffman,
was born Aug. s, 1871, at the old
homestead where he met his death.
His father was one of the early set
tiers of the county and one of its
most prosperous and respected citi
zens. The old home ties were always
strongest with George and since the
death of his father he remained with
his mother at the old home. The
sudden death of his mother, Aunt
Florence" of beloved memory, which
occurred last January, was great
shock to him as the two were insep.

Big good.hearted George had not
an enemy in the world. Possessed OF
a kindly, genial disposition, he made
friends wherever he was known and
everyone regrets his untimely death.

lily are: VIM. V. Huffman, of Good

SHAW AGAIN SAILS
FOR EUROPE
Came to Iowa Sunday and on Monday
Paid Over $25, 1000 and Has Time
Extended Month.
LEAVES NEW YORK SATURDAY
Bonds Have Been Sold, but Money
Has Not Been forthcoming
Confident of Success.

the governor of Iowa, later secretary
of the treasury, dropped into Denison
Sunday and spent the afternoon here,
taking the Monday morning train to
Council Bluffs, in order to report to
the court of the prospects for raising
money to finance the railroad PROPOSE
ton in Cass county, this state. AS
has been stated heretofore, an order
of the court was made for the sale of
this railroad property and the sale
was. effected several months ago, the
property bidden in by foreign syndi-
cate. Some time was demanded to
effect organization, select directors,
and officers and to produce the mon
ey to pay the purchase price. Mr..
Shaw was intrusted with the raising
of the money and he has succeeded in
selling bonds to a Belgium syndicate
and is awaiting the payment of the
money. We understand that accord
ing to agreement the money should
have been here long time ago and
the interests in this country are not
to blame for the delay of sending it.
But Notwithstanding the money is not
forthcoming as was expected, if the
agreement which Mr.. Shaw made with
the foreign syndicate had been car
ried out, the money would have been
here a long time ago and the deal
closed up. The court has been very
indulgent and has extended the time
for closing up the deal number of
times and we understand arrange
ments were made for another exten-
sion of probably months time in or
der to await the bond purchasers
sending the money.
On Monday forenoon the sum OF
$4,000 was paid over to E. s..
Harlan, receiver of the Atlantic North
ern & Southern railroad as part pay
ment on the purchase price Of the road
by the short-line syndicate. AS re-
suit of the paying of this sum of mon
ey an extension of time, expiring on
August Goth, was given the syndl-
cate to complete the payment for the
property.
We understand Mr.. Shaw will sail
Saturday for Brussels, where he will
personally investigate the present
status of the $5,O00,00O bond deal
now pending.
There remains to be paid by the
syndicate the sum of 100000 to COM
plete the purchase price of the At
lantic Northern & Southern, and If
this amount is not paid before August
29th, and if no further extension OF
time is granted, sale of the road will
be held on September 4th, and the
money thus far advanced will be lost,
but this is unlikely as the syndicate
has paid something like $4,000 on
the purchase price and the remainder,
no doubt, will be forthcoming before
the latter part of the month.
