IS
NOTFOUND
BY COURT
Amidon Orders Straight
Verdict Only for City Ma
tional of Chicago

The City National bank of Chicago,
seeking a fraud judgment for $4,000
against R. c. Kittel, of Casselton, lost
that point in the federal court here
yesterday evening, when Judge c. f.
Amidon directed the jury to return a
straight judgment. Mr.. Kittel had
previously offered a straight judg-
ment, sasf,a 81. .-- 5ts@a agag-'....5 -.
The Chicago bank, seeking to place
it's $4,000 claim in the preferred class,
and also to establish other rights as
governing its claim against Mr.. Kit
tells assets, failed to make a Showing
on the charge OF fraud and misrepre-
sentation.
AS result, Judge Amidon granted
the motion Of the defense for a
straight judgment, at the conclusion
Of the plaintiffs case. This places the
City National claim on par with 9TH
ers.
It was brought out by the testimony
that Mr.. Kittel had made a loan from
the City National bank, the same be-
ing secured by first mortgage bonds
in an equal amount.
The original loan for SO, 900 was Ye-
duced to $4,000 by the Casselton bank
er-and the Chicago bank still holds
bonds to coYer that amount. Under
the agreement, bonds were returned
to Mr. Kittel as he paid them up.
The bank. however, undertook to
make a showing that it's claim took
priority because Of alleged fraud
which Judge Amidon, by his action,
declared didn't exist.

 Colonel Desfointaines joined the party at one point, to explain the de- tails of the rows of barracks rising tier on tier, six stories high, along the side of a steep hill. As he left, one of the officers said:
 That man had a remarkable expert ence, which saved the day at a bloody stage of the fighting some time ago. The struggle had been desperate late into the day, until both sides were utterly exhausted. The men fairly dropped in their tracks, and neither side had the physical energy left to strike the final blow that would be decisive. Colonel Desfontaines req lized the situation, and going to the head of his exhausted men he coolly threw aside his revolver, took out his pipe, lit it, and then pipe in mouth. called to his men to make a last charge. The audacity of the act at the moment of such exhaustion, heart ened the wornout men: they struggled to their feet and made the rush which the crisis needed. It saved the day; the Germans were swept from the field, and Colonel Desfontaines is wearing the 'Croix de Guerre.'"
 Returning. the party passed the headquarters of General Humbert, and M Painleve paused to call on the com mander of the Third Army Corps. General Humbert is installed In vast park, for his reserves are further back from the fighting front. The general with spare. thin build. The talk turned on the splendid condition of the men, as NJ. Painleve had just ob- serve dthem.
 Yes" said General Humbert, and let me give you an instance showing the morale of the men. There was an exposed position where it was neces- sary to send a man. Volunteers were called for, as the place was swept by enemy fire and it meant sure death. A man stepped forward immediately. He pushed forward to the exposed position and was shot dead. Then his companion stepped forward, and he, too, was shot dead And then a third took his turn and fell; and fourth, and then a fifth. Yes, five Alen, one after another. seeking just what had happened and knowing 1t meant certain death, each took their turn with absolute calmness. That Is only passing instance, put IL SHOWS the everlasting purpose of the men"
