BANKS THREATEN
WITHDRAWAL OF
THEIR RESERVES

Bismarck, N. d., Nov. 22.-State
Bank Examiner J. r. Waters on
Wednesday afternoon wired Mime
apOlis banks that unless North Da-
kota bank reserves In their posses
sion which have been garnished by
the Bankers Insurance company of
Helena, Mont, are released, North
Dakota banks will be forced to
withdraw their funds to this state.
This actions is a new development
in the fight between policy holders
and the Bankers Insurance COM
pany, in which the banks, holding
policy holders notes. given in pay
ment for premiums, have declined
to pay the company until 1t effects
a satisfactory adjustment.
The Montana insurance company
wrote more than $2,8O0,000 worth
Of drouth insurance in this state
last spring. When the time came
to settle, losses we're so extremely
heavy that the company In many
instances declined to make pay
ments called for in the policy, claim
ing in a number Of cases fraud on
the part of the policy holder in pro-
curing the insurance. The COM
pany is claimed at the same time.
however, to have insisted on the
payment Of premiums Much of
this business was handled through
local banks acting as agents for the
arose, these banks backed up the
demands of the policy holders by
declining to pay notes running to.
upon demand The insurance COM
pany then resorted to the garnish-
ment of the banks reserves in Min
neapolis and St. Paul to enforce
payment.
State Examiner Waters message
filed to the First Security National
Bank Of Minneapolis yesterday in
dicates the stand which he will
take:
"A number of North Dakota state
banks have had their reserve gar
nished in Minneapolis. Will you
honor drafts drawn against their
accounts in good faith and allow
them to remit you? Unless some
quick action fs taken to stop and
release garnishees, banks will be
forced to withdraw funds to this
state. What do you adviser J. R.
Waters"
w. H. Sibbold of Minot. repre-
senting a syndicate of policy hold
ers, advised the Bankers Insurance
company after an unsatisfactory
conference with its representative
here last week that unless early ac-
ton was taken to adjust claims on
an equitable basis he would bring
suit. Insurance Commissioner Ols-
ness stated today tnat he has had
no notice Of such suit being enter
ed.

John Sheehan
Takes Own Life

Williston, N. D., Nov. 22.-JOhn
Sheehan, a we'll known farmer from
northwest of town committed sui
eide Saturday evening by taking
carbOlic acid.
The body was found just about
dusk when several men waiting for
a train strolled down to look at the
river and the government property
on the bank. Sheehan's body was
noticed near one Of the big govern
ment boats and it was at first thot
that he was asleep. The men came
over to the depot and Chief Nolan
was notified. It was found that
Sheehan was dead although the
body was still warm and death had
occurred only a few minutes be-
fore. A small vial with a poison
label was found near the body but
there were no acid burns evident
and Coroner Distad held post NOR
tenn at once to make certain the
cause Of death.
The examination showed beyond
all doubt that the man had taken
his own life by drinking acid. The
body was taken to the Hamre un-
dertaking parlors where it was pre-
pared for burial.
Sheehan had been away from
home for week and it appears has
been respondent for some time.
Police officials of this CITY, were
looking for him last week, at the
request Of his family but he kept
well out of the way until his body
was found Saturday evening. He
was about 38 years old and married.

FASHIONS FIFTY YEARS AGO.
When Caps and Aprons Were Worn
Even With Evening Gowns.


Even With Evening Gowns.
Fifty years or more ago the apron
and the breakfast cap were the pride
and Joy Of every matron, for they were
her sign and symbol. The cap Of that
time was an elaborate and dainty af-
fair. 1t was worn with the house dress
and often, much trimmed, throughout
the afternoon and evening. Aprons,
evidently an important feature of ev-
cry woman's wardrobe in those days,
were decidedly fancy, and usefulness
was not strong point in their con-
struction.
According to an old copy OF Godey's
Lady's Book, aprons were made Of
such materials as black silk and satin
and were trimmed with lace and vel
vet, with graduated ruffles of the silk.
Often these ruffies were scalloped.
They were also cut in strange shapes,
and final touch was added by sewing
on lace pockets and a few bows. The
same old fashioned book in 'sChitchat
on the Fashions For November says:
Aprons, or simulated aprons, are the
folly Of the day. They are likely to
have as popular reign as in the time
Of Queen Charlotte, when Beau Brum-
mel deposed them from their high es-
tate by deliberately before ali the peo-
pie assembled taking off the apron of a
duchess and iinging 1t behind one Of
the settees at bah given at the as
sembly rooms at Bath. Aprons were
made then, as now, of costliest lace,
and enormous sums were spent upon
this article of dress. The latest novelty
Is depth Of silk not more than twelve
inches, to which Is added founce Of
lace equally wide, but narrowed at the
sides. OF course this style win in time
give way to large aprons. What is use
full generally becomes popular and
lasts for considerable time Chris
