Des Moines. Dec. IS. The mil
lionaire and the beggar alike get hit by
the hard blows Of the courts Summing
up on an appeal case from Polk coun-
ty the supreme court said:
deliberate and reprehensible fraud
than was here committed, and to say
that it is not one OF which equity will
take cognizance is to affirm that a
court of chancery is impotent and can
not exercise one Of the powers for
which it was created, ,to-wit, tosrelieve
against fraud and deceit"
That wasn't said Of some poor fellow
who had put up new scheme to get

as judgment on the acts of mil
lionaire a man conspicuous for good
works. a philanthropist, a much hon
ored citizen in his lifetime.
Suit to Cancel Deeds.
It was in the suit Of Mullan against
executors Of the Callahan estate, a suit
to cancel certain deeds and convey
Rnces and to secure an accounting on
an old trade. It seems that the plain
tiff had bought certain land of James
Callahan in Calhoun county. The
clerks in Callanans office sent a deed
as from Callahan & Slavery, but later
Callahan found 1t out and. wanted the
sale to be as of his own property. He
personally claimed the land and the
firm also had title. In order to deprive
his partner Of any Of the proceeds he
then decided the property to person
in another state, dating the deed back
and compelled Mrs. Mullan, the real
purchaser, to convey the land back
again, returning the money. Then Cal
Ianan placed the property in the hands
of an agent and Mrs. Mullan again
bought the land. Not until long after
the death Of Callahan did Mrs. Mullan
learn Of the fraud that was perpe-
trated on her SO that she had to pay
d, higher price for the land and was
otherwise loser. The court decided
that the whole scheme was one of de-
liberate fraud and the original deed to
the property should stand.
The, story, as related in the opinion
OF the court, in al its relations to the
old American Emigrant Company, the
grabbing of swamp lands" the claims
on railroad lands and tax deeds, ETC..
and the jockeying with purchasers to
get everything possible from them, is
one mat will be read IN after years

Webster City, Dec. 1S.A forged
note for s65 for which w. B. Barger.
president of the Fort Dodge and Web

ably have to stand good, has just
turned up at the First National Bank
in Fort Dodge.
The note was turned in to Mr.. Bar
ger by Mr.. Elan, who was soliciting
for the two colleges. The fcrger used
the name of William Schram, a we'll
known resident Of Lehigh. Professor
Barger is now trying to lind out how
many other forged notes may be out.
The first intimation that the Schram
note was out came with he notice to
Mr.. Schram that the note was due. He
went to Fort Dodge and discovered the
forgery. The effort to initiate his
signature had been very clumsy Gre.
Had the bank been used to Mr..
Schram's signature, the note would
have been turned down for there was
nothing in common between the real
and the forged name and even the
spelling was incorrect
