The Berlin courts are pushing their

ncrgy. Within. fortnight three So
called bankers have been sentenced
to five years Imprisonment by two

The first court spent eleven weeks

found him guilty of defrauding his
customers, and imposed a fine OF
100000 in addition to the sentence
mentioned. The two other men were
convicted of the same crime. In this
case it was proved that the prisoners
never filled the orders Of their Gus

only carried them on their books and
collected such heavy commissions as
to swallow up all profits.

Until returns are in from all the townships the Log Cabin Democrat will have to withhold announcement of the winner in the long-bean contest. A few days ago a subscriber brought to this office a bean pod measuring 21 inches in length. Our Mt.

Grooms, Davis and Lee streets, Conway, brought in one just about as long as piece of rope. To be exact, it measured 42 1-2 inches.

Montenegro that the taking of the fort
ress of Scutari does not in any way
modify the decision of the European
powers relative to the delimitation Of

SAYS CONFIDENCE MISPLACED
Asserts Former Texas Senator was
the Recipient Of Securities In
Tennessee Central Transac-
ton as Assignee.

st. Louis, April 2S.-Henry Clay
Pierce. chairman of the board of direc-
tors of the Waters-Pierce Oil company,
met the charge that he had converted
TO his own use $4,000 shares In the
Nashville Terminal company, which
had been placed in the National Bank
of Commerce of st. Louis as security
for loan, with the counter statement
that he had been the victim OF mis-
placed confidence to the extent OF
nearly 100000. The statement OF
Pierce was made on Friday during the
taking of dispositions in the suit filed
by the National Bank of Commerce
to recover $4,000 shares from Mr.,
Pierce, or their money equivalent, $l,-
100000.
He blamed his ENHANCEMENT mainly
on what he termed misplaced conn
dence in the late ]. c. Van Blarcom.
president of the bank.
Pierce testified regarding the con-
nection of former Senator Joseph w.
Bailey of Texas, that it was his under
standing that the $1,500000 stock OF
the Nashville Terminal company,
which the National Bank of Commerce
seeks to recover, was turned over TO
Bailey as assignee Of the tennessee
Construction company, after the loan
for which it was pledged had been
paid.
George Lockett Edwards, attorney
for the bank, said the stock was taken
out of the bank without the knowledge
OF the directors and turned over to
Bailey.
In 1901 or 1902" Pierce testified.
Il was forced into larger interest IN
the Tennessee Central enterprise than
other individual subscribers to the syn
dictate, when my son-in.law, Richards,
in my absence and without my knowl-
edge, signed my name to guarantee
to buy 81, 500 900 Of the first mortgage
bonds of the railway. Since the col
lapse Of the syndicate II has been nee
essary for me TO advance over $4,000
900 in cash to the Tennessee railway
to pay its expenses.
After the syndicate collapsed. Sena.
tor Joseph w. Bailey of Texas was
made the assignee OF the Tennessee
Construction company and all OF its
properties were turned over 10 him
He was authorized 10 take charge OF
the affairs of the company and wind
them up.
Senator Bailey sold over 100000
worth of property of the company, and
1t was my understanding that from the
sale of these properties the loan at the
Bank of Commerce, for which the
Nashville Terminal stock was pledged
was paid, and that the stock then went
back to Bailey as assignee for the con
struction company.
THE stock was later pledged to the
Standard Trust company OF New York
by Senator Bailey and remained there
for three years. Il was finally deliy
cred to Eben Richards, on my order
after the trust company had notified
me that 1t had no further claim 10 It,

while the loan still was unpaid. The
suit Is to recover this stock or It's
