ideas of the farmers themselves to

that many millions in value of foreign
goods were waiting in our custom

riage. These statements, however, are
not in accordance with much of the
evidence offered at the preliminary
hearing of the accused couple. Friends
and business acquaintances of the
slain man testified that he had de-
termined to sever his relations with
Mrs. Little and that it was his refusal
to have anything more to do with
her that led to the tragedy.
Van Cleve and Little were partners
in the real estate business. For some
time prior to the tragedy, according to
statements made by those employed
about the building in which Van Cleve
and Little had their offices, the for
mer had endeavored to avoid meeting
Mrs. Little who repeatedly called at
the offices to see him and who, 1t is
said, had threatened him with bodily
harm.
As result Of the trouble Van Cleve
and Little decided to end their part
nership. On the morning of the trag-
edy. a deal was concluded whereby
Van Cleve bought out the interests Of
his partner in the business. After the
papers were signed the two men and
a mutual acquaintance stood engaged
in friendly conversation in front of
the building. According to the testi-
mony of witnesses Mrs. Little ap-
preached the trio and asked her hus-
band If he had whipped Van Cleve.
Little replied that he had not and that
everything had been settled amicably.
According to the statement of the
mutual acquaintance who witnessed
the tragedy Mrs. Little applied a vile
epithet to Van Cleve and told her
husband that If he did not whip him
she would. 1t is said that Little there
upon drew a revolver and answered
. "Pll whip him."
Van Cleve, who had been standing
a few feet away, but taking no part
in the conversation, turned around
and started to enter the building He
had reached the elevator when Little
pulled him back and shot him. After
his victim had fallen to the floor Little
fired four more shots into the pros
trate body.

appeared, in the story of certain suits
that have been filed against certain
loan sharks:
IN. T. Anders, V. Otis Robertson
and A. A. Thompson are sought to be
held personally liable in some in
stances, allegations being that they
own, direct and control the Anders
concern. The further allegation is
made that the Anders company, or
gan:zed in March, 1911, doing business
from then until now was not incor-
porated until some months later than
March, 1911, and that although it was
not completed it was doing business

Knowing that the article may be
seen by persons who are not in Jack
son and therefore, not in a position
to know that | do not have any con
nection with a loan company, desire
to state that l do not have now and
have not had any interest in any loan
concern. This fact could have been
learned easily by the attorneys who
filed the suit by the slightest investi-
cation. No notice by telephone, per-
sonal. conversation or by letter was
given me that such a suit was con-
templated, In March, 1911, was en-
ployed at a cash fee, as an attorney,
to draw the charter of incorporation

In the formal organization of the cor
poration | used my name in the first
meeting. following the same method
used by me in the organization of a
great number of corporations, and the
same method used by most all cor
poration lawyers. The nominal stock
which I had for legal purposes, only,
was imme diately turned over to my
clients and I have had no interest in
the company. l do not know how it is
managed. l do not know the interest
rates charged. I have had no connec-
ton with the concern except as an at
torney at regular fixed fees.
