InterpIeader Dismissed

"The only remedy the First Ma
tional bank of Harvey has against
Elgin is for an action on the debt
with no security. It would be differ
ent if there had been a tenant in pos
session under an agreement to pay
crop rent. In that case all the rights
of Elgin under such contract would
insure to the benefit of the First Ma
tiOnal bank of Harvey, but that is not
the situation in this case. Therefore,
the interpleader of the First National
bank of Harvey will be dismissed"
The court issued an order foreclos-
ing the mortgage held by the Moline
PlOw company, and ruled that a pur-
ported seed lien of the First National
bank of Van Hook should be can
celled due to lack of evidence that the
Van Hook bank had ever obtained q
valid seed lien.

The men held in custody are: James
Reilly, Sam Reckerd, Stanley Brown,
alias S. J. Williams. George Burke,
Frank Morrison and Robert Vance.
With the exception of Reilly all OF
the men were arrested early last ev-
ening by Police Chief Dan DOugherty
and Patrolman MOrtenscn at a room
in a local hotel.
In the belief of Sheriff Spicher
these robberies have been entirely or
at least partially solved as a cOnse-
quence of yesterdays activities:
First National bank of Makotai, N.
D., Carpoio postoffice and Carpio Mer-
camille Co., The Douglas Standard Oh
and Pure Oil companies and also a
garage in Douglas, Sawyer Hardware
company at Sawyer, Rogers Lumber
company at Foxholm.
1t was meager information furnish
ed to Sheriff A. S. Spicher about two
weeks ago that resulted in yesterdays
raid and arrests, which are believed
to have cleared up one of the most
battling series of crimes that has ev-
er been committed in Ward county.
Piece by piece, the sheriff and his
force collected the facts which final
ly revealed the cache of tn gang as
well as the personnel Of those alleged
to have been responsible for the vari-
Gus Offenses.
The loot, ranging from candy and
cigars to horse blankets, silks, guns
stamps, robes, lubricating oils and
numerous other kinds of merchandise
were en- display in the corridor OF
the sheriff's office at the court house
today, where scores of curious per
sons have viewed it. Identification Of
the goods is progressing today
Among the loot is more than $70(
worth Of stamps and stamped envel
opes, a portion Of which has positive
ly been identified as having been stol
en- from the postofice at Carpio
Identification of this merchandis
leads to the free prediction that tn
federal government may take an &C
tive part in the prosecution.
