STOCK SALE FRAUD /.
. CHARGES DROPPED
Failure to Get Conviction in
Minnesota Causes QuaSh-
ing of Cases.

BY the Associated Press.
BOSTON, october 28.-Prosecution Of
indictments against group of Midwest
bankers in connection with an alleged
land bank scheme which was said to
have cost New England investors more
than 100000 was dropped yester-
day by United States Attorney Fred
erick H. Tarr.
Tarr ordered the indictments nolle
pressed on the instruction of the United
States Attorney General. Failure to
obtain a conviction in similar action
against the defendants in Minnesota re-
suited in the decision, United States
Attorney Tarr explained.
The defendants. Guy Huston, Oran F.
Shee, Harold A. Smith, John E.. Huston,
Walter Cravens, John L. Boyles and
Vernon N. Sigler, were charged with
use of the mails to defraud and con-
spiracy in connection with the sale Of
stock in the Farms Co. of MaSSachu-
sets, the Missouri-Kansas Farms Co.
and the Farmers Fund of Illinois.
The Government in an action arising
from sale of stock of the Southern Min
nesota Joint Stock Land Bank obtained
conviction, but the verdict was re-
versed by the United States Court Of
Appeals on the ground of insufficient
evidence. The reversal resulted in the
decision to drop prosecution OF the in
dictments in Massachusetts,.

CANNON SUFFERS
NERVOUS ATTACK.
Bishop in Hospital Under
Treatment for NeuritiS and
InfIammatory ArthritiS.

~ the Associated Press.
Bishop James Cannon, jr., Of the
Methodist Episcopal Church South is
undergoing treatment at local hos
pital for an acute attack of neuritis
and infiammatory arthritis.
The churchman's condition is COM
plicated also by other nervous disor-
ders brought on in considerable meas
ure, attending physicians believe, by the
pressure of difficulties which have sur
rounded him in recent months. One
or two months of rest and hospital
treatment will be required to restore
him to health.
The attack of arthritis is a recur-
renee of an ailInent from which he has
suffered in the past. 1t was to ease
the pain this caused him that the
bishop carried a crutch during the
stormy sessions of The Senate Lobby
Committee last Winter. On 1t he
stumped from the committee room one
day when he refused to answer the Sem
ators questions. However, DR.. r. Ly-
man Sexton, in charge of his case. said
today the arthritis was not a chronic
affliction and would yield to treatment.
Bishop Cannon has been under spe-
cial strain since his recent return from
Brazil. He hurried back to this coun-
try to meet charges filed against him
within the church by four ministers.
He will defend himself against these
later if they are made the basis OF
church trial.
Within the last few weeks legal steps
have been taken against one of his
sons--R. M. Cannon of Californian
connection with financial difficulties.
Soon thereafter the bishop announced
he was filing suit for $5,000,000 dam
ages against William Randolph Hearst,
alleging libel through the publication in
some Hearst newspapers of stories deal
ing with his recent marriage and other
matters.

Morgan Bests Howard

New York, Feb. 12.-Before a
holiday crowd of 5000 cheering
spectators, Howard lost a fast and
wel-played basket ball game to
Morgan College of Baltimore.
Spencer of Morgan opened up
the scoring three minutes after the
toss up. Howard tied the score a
minute later on goal beneath the
basket by Taylor. Jones was get
ting the tap, but close guarding
by Smith and Harris broke up the
Morgan formations. Morgan scored
four more points on baskets by
Clarke and Spencer. Howard came
back with a goal by Hall.
From this point on the first half
assumed the aspect of duel be-
twene Hall of Howard and Clark

passed with lightning-like rapidity
to one end of the court. Hall and
Clarke invariably ended these sal
lies by neat flip into the basket.
At half time Morgan went off the
floor with three point advantage,
1915.

possession Of the ball. Williams

fouled in the act of shooting. He

selves.
Play was resumed and Morgan
scored six baskets. Experience be-
gan to tell. Lanky Jones, who had
been having trouble keeping Tay-
Tor from scoring, now opened up.
Rap Wheatley, another big gun,
started dropping Shots from mid
court. Howard tailed three more
times via the foul route.
With two minutes to go, Coach
Hurt took out his first team. How
ard took advantage of this sub
stitution to score a point every
ten of the remaining seconds, Hall
