The Fidelity and Deposit company ot
Muyland filed a petition in the district
court yesterday nskltiK that K .1. Duj- be
siit.slltuteil as trustee of the llallnrd irtlst
fund In place of W. II. M. ruscy. The
Isle Mrs. Sarah J. Milliard of this city, mi
October 18. 1897, executed a deed of trust
to Mr. I'usey, turulntz over to him the
sum of $20,000 In ensli, to be held by him
for the bctie.lt of O. It. Hallaid and other
ot her heirs.
Tho Kldcllty and Deposit company was
bondsman for Mr. l'ttsuy nn such trustee
nntl Its petition for tho appointment of
l J. Da of this cltj In place of Mr.
I'usey sets up that doubt exlRts as to the
rohrtic) of Mr. I'usey und that for that
reiisun aril that he has been declared
incntiilb Incotnprteni the company does
not care to be liable any lonRer on his
bond. In Mie several applications filed In
the district court in connection with the
liquidation of the banking bURlness of
Olllcer I'usey the .Maryland compiiny Is
the first to take lcunl notice of the doubt
of the sohotiey of either of tho partners.

Confidence In the nhl'lty of the firm to
pay out was restored somewhat yesterday
when It became known that certain attor
neys actltiK for a number of depositors had
made an investigation of th proporty held
by the haul;, which had proven satisfac
tory. These attorneys stated that they
believed Ihe assets of tho firm, when re
alized upon, will enable tho receivers to
pay dollar for dollar. nltliotiKli It will prob.
nbly be some time before depositors will
recplvo their money. Much of the anxiety
felt by tho creditors Is due to tho fact
that no report has been made by tho re
ceivers, nlthough one has been promised
almost dally for tho last week. Tho failure
on tho part of Charles Olllcer to Mo an
Inventory of tits father's rstnte has a dis
quieting effect nnd until both tlieso reports
are with tho court depositors arc naturally
anxious over the outcome.
The following notice was sent to tho
recelNcrs yesterday by the First National

Home from the ItlnnillKr.
It. K. Ingram, formerly connected with
tho business department of a local news
paper, returned yesterday from a three
years' sojourn In tho Klondike. Ills wife
and children hnd not heard from him for
tho Inst two years nnd his return home
jestorday morning enmo as a Joyful sur
prise to them.
After leaving here a few years ago ho
wont to IMmonton, Alberta Territory,
frcm whero in 1S0S he started overland
for tho Klondike. Tho Journey occupied
thirteen months nnd was wrought with
considerable danger nnd hardship. He
upent a considerable time in Dawson City
and secured a good claim, but his ccr
tlllcato ran out beforo he was aware and
other parties Jumped tho holding. Ho said
It ho had had a Winchester rlllo ho would
have been nblo to have told a different
story Slid would have mado somo money,
as tho claim was a good ono.
Mr. Ingram says tho hotter mining
claims aro all nearly worked out nnd con
sequently the mine owners are unable to
pay the high wages they did formerly and
a man working for wages Is better off In
Iowa today than ho Is In the Klondike.
There nre moro men looking for work
than there Is it demand for und this tends
to keep wages down. When ho tlrst
renched tho Klondike living expenses were
sky high, hut they have tumbled now. A
meal that formerly cost $t.C0 can new be
had for 75 cents, ulthough, as Mr. Ingram
puts It, a better meal can ho hnd for 10
cents In Seattle than for $1 In the Klon
dike. In his opinion Alaska will develop
In a few years Into n very rich country,
hut ho strongly ndvlscs any ono thinking
of going there to stay nt home.

Tho Lxpress, published last evening, says:
Austin unrist, a, won Known young
Knoxvlllo business man. got a team and
buggy at Shlvc's livery barn Thursday
rooming and started for Pella. Since that
timo nothing has been seen of him. Ho
has. In fact, absconded, leaving his busi
ness and his creditors behind.
"Since his abrupt lenvo It has been
found that much of tho collateral put up at
the hanks as security for loans Is merely
copies of notes that he still had In his
possession. In some cases ho had two or
threo copies of tho same not deposited In
different banks. In many Instances ho
rollocted advanco payments on note not
yet due, receipting tho makers of tho
notes therofor and the makers of tho
notcB will always havo theso receipts as
souvenirs. They aro of no real value, as
tho notes stand against him.
"The whole affair wns a great sui'priso
to tho business public. Ghrlst had a good
business reputation and could have had al
most unlimited credit a week ago. Now
that ho Is gone It Is said that ho wns In
reality a poor trader and probably kept
a big losing business going In order to
maintain a high credit at tho banks and
among buslnoss mon. It Is thought that
ho took with him probably $1,000 or $5,000.
