CHAPTER xxvI-oontinued.

From afar off there came to his
cars reverberations as of low, distant
thunder. He could no longer see
Paddock, but he was close enough to
touch him, n he knew that he was
still sacrificing ballast.
For a little while the silence was
oppressives Then with appalling
abruptness, out Of that dead, heavy,
almost palpable quiet, there broke,
with the ~deafening tumult of collid-
ing worlds, a roar Of thunaer that
seemed to rend the universe;;ssand one
broad vivid glare Of living fire famed
through the riven pace.
Brooke's first thought was that the
great gas bag above them had explod-
ed. but n instructive glance upward
showed him before the light died that
it was still intact.
Then once more mat awful silence
ensued, together with that terrifying,
soul-gripping darkness, and he felt
the arms Of the girl at his side clutch
ing him and heard her quick, fright
ened breathing at his ear.
He held her close now, regardless
of to whom ensuing flashes of light
ming might reveal them. and spoke to
her ,reassuringly, with all the calm
ness he could command.
Out Of the blackness came Pad
decks voice, too: b,

JUST A MISUNDERSTANDING.

1t was a mere misunderstanding
which resulted in the forwarding to
the state treasurer resolutions pur-
porting to be signed by the five men,
bers of the Bankers Conference exec
utive committee, asking the treasurer
to abstain from calling in for pay
ment hail warrants now more
than a var overdue, and on
which the holders have not
been able to collect a dollar. The
resolution was transmitted. in due
form to the state treasurer after he
had announced his intention Of calling
in warrants ana paying them as long
fund with which to pay them.
The reason advanced for making
this request FOL postponement is that
the insurance funds have been depos-
tied in the Bank Of North Dakota, and
by 1t deposited in the several banks
Of the state, and that In order to
meet the demand for payment it will
be necessary for the Bank of North
Dakota to call in Its deposits from
these smaller banks, to their great
Inconvenience, and with the result
that many of them will be unable to
meet theSdemand. and will be COM
PEELED to close.
Now it appears that two Of the men
whose names appear on this petition,
C.. ]. Lord Of Cando and Ed. Pierce
Of Sheldon, had not signed or author
lied anyone else to sign for them.
Mr.. Cathro Of the Bank Of North Da-
kota says that Mr.. Baker, another
member. Of the committee, gave him
to understand that Messrs. Lord and
Pierce authorized the use of their
names in support OF this resolution.
Messrs., Lord and Pierce say that no
such authorization was intended, and
that they would not sign. such a reso-
luton. Everything is lovely now that
we know that the whole thing was a
matter of misunderstanding.
1t may strike some people as Pc
culiar, however, that there is such
cheerful informality in the handling
Of work affecting the operations of
the most important financial institu-
ton in the. state, the interests of any
number Of other banks, and the abil-
ity of some thousands Of farmers to
obtain money that has long been due
them by the state, as well rs the Of
fictal acts of the treasurer of the state.
It would be interesting to know what
proportion of the entire business of
the Bank of North Dakota has been
conducted in that happy-go-lucky
manner.

DoCKAGE.

Efl4s ~~
dockage law undertakes to secure to
the farmer-the value Of whatever
dockage there is in his grain. The law
was enacted after a furious campaign
o1afeducation," in which it was rep
resented that the farmers Of the
state were being robbed Of millions
OF dollars annually through the oper-
alton of former dockage practices.
Elaborate computations were made of
the feeding value of foreign matter
left In grain as 1t came from the
threshing machine, and the total ran
into large figures. It was explained
to the farmer that the weight of this
material was deducted from the
gross weight of his load of grain,
that he received no allowance for it.,
that he paid freight on it to the ter
minaly#ahd that it was then disposed
Of for feeding or other purposes, to
h great enrichment of the elevator
Or milling companies.
How much is the average lot of
dockage worth? How much does the

/. Some light is being shed on this sub
ject at a.sgood many grain buying
Il points. Grain is being cleaned in the
local elevator, a regular charge be-

cases reported to The Herald in
which Abe grower has demanded pay
for the dockage he has been told
that the .dockage belongs to him, and
he is at liberty to help himself. In
these eases reported the grower has
not considered the dockage of suti-
cient value to him to warrant him
That there is value in dockage has
never been questioned. Sometimes
there is an appreciable quantity of
fiax. which has a high value per
make good feed, and occasionally
there are weed seeds which can be
utilized for one purpose or another.
But the value of dockage as it runs
has been grossly exaggerated, as is
shown by the refusal of farmers to

100000 AFFECTED
BY PHILA. STRIKES
All Not Working However, When
WalkOut Occurred

Philadelphia, May 3.--Strikes of vari-
Gus kinds in progress here affect more
than 1OO.OO men and women, labor
leaders declared today. Not all of the
men and women who are members of
the striking unions, however, were
actually employed when their strikes
began, it was explained.
In the strike of the building trades.
for instance, the union heads said the
membership of the unions totalled 90,
600. while only $4,000 were actually
employed when the strike in protest
against "A per cent. cut in wages an
nounced by the employers was called.
Union claims were that 80 per cent. of
the %, ZOO obeyed the order to quit
work. The employers, however, MAIN
tanned the combined membership of the
unions was only 400 and that only
$1,000 left work yesterday. They adj
mitted work had ceased on virtually
every major building operation in the
city. The workmen said they would
lay their case before Mayor Moore to-
day and ask him to intercede.
Approximately. 500 compositors are

seeking a A hour week instead of As,

members here are affected by the strike
of their several unions, and that no
ship bill will leave port today. Shipping
board and private steamship officials
here declared as far as Philadelphia is
concerned the strike is relatively unim-
portant.
Strikes which have long been in
progress here include that at the
Cramps ship yard where the 'open
shop" question has resulted in a num-
Der of disturbances. Cramp officials
declare the men who quit have been re-
placed and no strike exists. Labor diff
culties also exist in some of the textile
industries.

that "they order this matter better In

whereof note the case Of Monsieur

From time to time the attention OF

but invariably becomes bankrupt as
soon as he has separated sufficient

NJ. Renaud is now about seventy
seven years old, and, therefore, may
well be reckoned the dean. the Mes
tor, Of his profession In France. 1t
was after the war Of 1S70-71 that he
made his debut In Paris. Though he
stopped on that occasion at a small
inn he conceived the grandiose scheme
of conquering Paris. Three years la.
ter the banker, M. Marie Renaud,
owned palace on the Bots de Bou-
logne and conducted bank In partner
ship with a mesmerist who bewitched
the customers.
After a couple Of years the firm was
dissolved and Renaud was arrested,
tried and convicted, but on appeal was
acquitted. He then removed to Brus-
sells and founded the Credit Inter
national" which promised its share
holders 500 per cent interest and
which went to smash In 1904. He
was arrested. but again got clear and
then went to London. He was again
brought before tribunal In Paris
