r Inyt County Itonds ,
At the meeting of the Board of County
Commissioners yesterday morning a prooo
sltion was received from Attorney William
D , Beckett , attorney for the bondsmen , offert t
Ins on behalf of the defunct Midland bank
to pay $3,000 to Douglas county as a compromise -
promise settlement. The amount the county
bad on deposit 1n the bank was over
$1,0oq , , The language of the proposition
tram Mr , Beckett is ;
' 'Tbat without admitting in any manner n
liability on the bond and solely as a corn-
promise settlement , we will pay to Douglas
county $3,000 and tire court costs accrued
to'lhte date in the suit pending , Whereupon
the 'suit is to bu dismissed and the sureties
discharged of all claims against them arising

giving the status of the suits brought by
thq receiver of the Midland Stela bank

I , ag lnst the estate of Joseph Barker , the
"t ward of the county court of $2,600 In favor
of the receiver had been appealed to the
dlstrlct court , and the case against the stock-
holders generally will probably be
tried at the October term of the district
court. The unpaid debts of the honk amount
to $ a7,109.52 , with interest added , front April
14 , 1893 Of the $100,000 capital stock , 50
per cent had bean paid in , Mr , Kennedy's '
lotto' says the origlal subscribers and subsequent -
sequent holders of stock are all liable for
' lho remaining 50 per cent under the declslone
of the supreme court ; and that , in addition ,
alll stockholders holding stock , while the
prceenl indebtedness accrued , are liable for
ap amount equal to the stock held by them

22 to make hla answer ; after that a tiny ,

A statement submitted by Farson Leach
& Co. of Chicago , which had been made at
the suggestion of Chairman Klerstead and
Special Attorney Beckett , covering the whole
matter of the sale of the $180,000 funding
bonds of the county in December last by
the firm to the Northwestern Mutual Life
Insurance company of Milwaukee for $198- ,
000 , wits read and referred to the finance
committee. The firm bud , after its sale ,
insisted that the bonds be backed up with
a majority vote of the electors of the
county. They had been supported by a
decision of the supreme court , however , and
the board , thinking the firm named was
dilly-dallying over the lransacton , annulled
its contract with them and soul the bonds
elsewhere. Farson Leach & Co , , in their
letter , informed the board that the relations
between them would remain as cordial as
over and all they would Insist upon now
was the return of llje check of $500 deposited -

The appointment of Carl Herring as assistant -
sistant county attorney to look after the
police court eases was continued until November -

The contract by which the New England

On Npeolnl Appropriation ,
An afternoon session was held to pass
upon the appropriation sheet covering nda-
collaneoua claims amounting to about $12-
000 , in addition to the amount for the jurors ,
witnesses and assessors previously mentioned -
tioned , and a communication from County
Attorney Daldrigo as to the appropriation
this year from the county agricultural fair
was turned over to the finance committee.
Under the law the county board is bound
to set. apart for the benefit of the county
agricultural society 3 cents tor every vote
cast In the preceding congressional election ,
which would amount to about $3,500 , it Is
figured out. But this year the county- fair
would be in the nature of an auxiliary exhibit
hibit at the expoaition. Mr. Baldrlge therefore -
fore lakes the position that the board can.
pot make rho appropriation , because it is
not a regular county fair. As to the request -
quest , also , of the school board for $500 for
the educational exhibit , Mr. Baldrlgo says
the county hoard can give that amount out
of its exposition fund if it wants to , but
that the expositiou fund is the only one
which can be drawn upon for any such pur-
pose. The money for the agricultural society -
ciety could also be donated from this fund ,
The whale matter was left with the flnmhce
committee , Chairman Klerstead of the
board says the exposition fund has boon
most all absorbed and under the clrcum-
stances It is hardly probable that anything
can be done for the school exhibit , and car-
tninly nothing for the county fair. iThcre

A L17T7'riR FROM 11th Il A i , D n iG 1D ,
OM4HA , July J0-To the Editor of The
Boo ; My attention baa recently been
called to the unwarranted criticism
in certain newspapers of this state
of Judge D. S , Baker becausa
Charles 11' . Mosher , wrecker of this Capital
National honk of Lincoln , was sentenced by
the federal court to an imprisonment of
only five years on the charges of which
Mosher was found gutty. It Is charged that
Mosher was allowed to plead guilty to one
count of the indictment and that all others
wore dismissed and that by this arrange.
ment Mosher could not have been sentenced
to a longer period than five years ,
The responsibility for the sentence of
Mosher rested with the court and not with
the prosecuting attorney and i cannot permit -
mit such an unjust charge to be circulated
without my protest. While Judge Baker
was United States attorney for the district
of Nebraska , 1 was assistant United Stales
attorney and I am fully cognizant of all
the facts in this case. The failure of the
Capital National bank occurred when the
United States court was In session in Lin-
colnln January , 1893 , and during the silting
of the grand jury impaneled for that term.
Thu causes of the failure of this bank and
Mother's relation thereto were immediately
taken up before the grand jury and an Indictment -
dictment of two counts or charges was
found , presented and flied forthwith and
Mosher was arrested and put under bond , A
thorough investigation was then made by
the grand jury into the condition of the
bank and another Indictment of thirty counts
or charges was ( quad , presented and flied
in court , upon which Indictment Mosber was
arrested and put under additional bond.
On June 17 , 1893 , both cases against
Mosher were called for trial , Mosher pro.
posed to plead guilty to one count of the
Indictment if all the others would be dl.-
missed , which proposition was declined by
Untied States Attorney usher , Mr , Baker
proposed to Mosher that , na he believed be
could convict him on twelve counts or
charges out of the total number of thirty-
two , it he , Mosher , would conscat to a very
diet of guilty an twelve counts he might
have u verdict of acquittal on all the others.
This proposition was finally accepted and a
verdict of guilty was found on twelve of the
charges wherein the peculation. amounted
to over one hundred thousand dollars and a
verdict of acquittal was rendered on the
other charges ,
( See United Stales vs , Mosher , Doc , K ,
pages G6 and 72 , in the district court of the
United States for the dlstrlct of Nebraska , )
On July 8 , 1898 , during the absence ( rein
the state of United States Attorney Baker ,
the distrlct judge , on his own motion , without -
out the suggestion of the prosecuting at +
torney or his assistant , sentenced Mosher tea
a period of flvo years in the penitentiary.
If the term of the sentence was too shorter
or too long , it was a matter over which
United Slates Attorney Baker had no eon.
trol and he should not be held accountable
therefor , The fact that Judge Baker is now
a candidate for governor Ia no reason for
the exercise of an unbridled license to mis
represent him.
Section 52011 of the United States statutes ,
under which Mosher was convicted , provides
for a sentence of not less than five nor more
than ton yenta for each offense. Mosher
might have been sentenced to a term of one
hundred and twenty years in the peniten-
tiary. The court sentenced Mosher so that
the terms pf aentenco on the various charges
ran concurrently , ae the court thought he
had a rigbt to do , and all expired in five
years ,
Mr. Mosher presented a petition with 500
names attaChed purporting to bo resident.

sonal letters ( coin prominent people of the
same city , requesting that the prosecuting
attorney recommend to the court that
Mosher be sentenced only to pay a floe and
that be receive no sentence of imprison-
meat , provided that Moehor would pay a
large sum of money to the receiver of the
bank for the benefit of the depositors , The
prosocuthhg attorney declined to preaont this
petltlop to the court , but sent it to the attorney -

it is now on file , Judge Bnker'a conduct in
