by the present officials to perpetuate
themselves in office. 1t was also
charged that J. N. Dolley, state bank
commissioner, was aiding the present
administration in their scramble for
proxies; and that he had shown bad
faith in the appointment of w. T..
Watson as a director.
To these charges Dolley replied with
much fire. He told of the recent in
veStigation of the Aetna and of the
ousting of Downes and Carter. In
his statement he threatened to cause
Downes arrest on a criminal charge,
but has not yet done SO. Then the OPP
position subpoenaed Doley, Eitzpat-
rick and Royce to appear before Judge
Pollock and explain the recent investi-
CATION of the association. When the
lawyers and witnesses met in Kansas
City, overtures were made looking to-
ward a compromise. The DOlley-
Fitzpatrick Royce faction smilingly &C
ceded to the appointment of master,
while the Carter-Downes ct al combi-
nation apologized and hoped the result
Of the coming election would be sat
isfactory to everyone So the war was
ended-for the present.
When Judge Sluss comes to Topeka
this week, he will take charge of the
records of the association, pass on the
proxies presented by the bellige rent
against certain officials for the alleged
misappropriation of funds.
BY the insurgents it was claimed
that hundreds of stockholders, who
failed to follow the affairs of the as
ISOLATION carefully, had given their
proxies to the opposition without an
understanding of the main fight for
the control Of the corporations busi-
ness management. Because the men
in charge of the Aetna's affairs re-
fused to turn over lists of stockhold-
ers or permit proxies to be examined,
the out faction was unable to con-
duct their campaign with any degree
of certainty or success Then they
went before Judge Pollock and de-
manded the appointment of a master
to take charge of the election. The
court granted an injunction against
the officers denying them the right to
use the associations money to collect
proxies and set a date for the final
hearing At this hearing, both sides
reached an agreement and the matter
was at least temporarily settled

finished the season with the team last
year. Weeks was one of the tWirling
stars of the Albuquerque tournament
last year. Harmon was secured from
Great Bend, Kansas, in the middle of
last season, but was farmed out to the
Nebraska state league. Jarnigan, who
was one of Isbell's leading pitchers in
1910, but who failed to get into condi-
ton last season and asked for leave
Of absence. will return in the spring.
The infield, with the exception of
shortstop, will probably go through
the season without change and with
the regular outtielders of last season
Pueblo will have rast men in the outer
gardens. Peaster, who was one of the
most promising pitchers on the stair
for a time last season, has been drop
ped on account of Indifference.
