Fraser. sovereign coin- mander of the W linen of the World, and others, in allegedly using two million dollars of W. O. W. funds to organize the Gl he Lite Insnr ance company was illegal. District Judge Fred Shepherd held today in finding: for the plaintiffs. W. H. Price of Lincoln and others in their suit seeking to have the Hinds returned to the Woodman organization. Judge Shepherd's cree was ten tative and after it was ready to in terested attorneys today, a confer ence to complete details was arrang ed. The formal decree will be filed as soon as details have heen deter mined. The tentative ruling ordered that the Woodmen officer-, take hack the two million dollars used in organ izing the Globe company, an old line life insurance company to he oper ated in connection with the fraternal organization. That ligure will he modified to allow for stock sold by the Woodmen company and paid for. Judge Sht pherd - t the appeal hond at four million dollars, hut as the defense immediately enteted a protest, that figure may he altered. A finding of fraud also will he in cluded in the decree if the plaintiffs desire. Judge Sheplu id said. There is no douht, he said, that the offi cers o the companv km-w that in es tablishing the (Hob-' concern there actually would he harmful rather than friendly compel i ion.

The case will be a ab d immed iately to the stipienie ini'.it, said .Ml. Fraser, after learning 1 l Judge Shep herd's litiding. "Because of the importance of the decision we will ask that the case he advanced upon the docket." he added. Mr. Fraser said he and legal representatives of the Woodmen have not seen the decision, lie added: "It seems Strang- to me that where the laws of N hraska do not prohibit such transactions and the Wonilm'ii of the World has all its re serve intact, with a surplus of more than 11 million doll. us and a gen eral fund of more than four millions, the men owning that money would not have the liuht t do anything with they money they pleasv so long as it is. in their judgment, beneficial to their organization '' Mr. Fraser said the decision is, lie hopes, "only a temporary set-back to what I anticipated would be in the very near future Nebraska's largest life insurance company. "There is no question in my mind but that we will win ultimately," sai'l I). K. Bradsha v. general attor ney of the VoodiTvn. "I am sure wo were within our legal tights- and feel confident that the supreme court will uphold our contention. "Mr. Fraser did xactly what th sovereign camp directed him to do," Mr. Bradshaw continued. "The sov ereign camp directed the organiza tion of the new life insurance com pany, and made the appropriation for it." Wot ld-I let aid. MAKES FAST AUTO RUN Atlantic. Ia.. M.y 2.

Select ion of a negro to replace Martin Madden, "watchdog of the treasury." a repre sentative for the First Congressional district of Illinois, seemed increas ingly probable tonight. The choice of a candidate whose name would supplant that of Madden on the No vember ballot is a matter for the dis trict committee of the republican party, the attorney for the ele.tion commissioners held today. This. body would be the ward com mitteemen for the five :-outh side wards in the First congressional dis trict. In other days this district was one of homes of Chicago's financial and social leaders. During the World war and after the lake shore drive district and some of the districts to the north caught the fancy of those then living in the First district. With their exit came the negro population. Two of the committeemen are negroes.

The final proof of the Nebraska banking situation pudding, made public today by Clar ence Bliss, load of the state depart ment of trade and coinmer. e. was th' "big talk of the day" around the state i apitol. The regular report of the flnyn ial condition of the state's 777 sound state banks, announced by the de partment this afternoon shows that these 777 Nebraska state banks that have weathered the storm, have an average cash reserve of 22 per cent, which is the highest average reserve reached by Nebraska hanks in many years. This reserve, (he report shows, m healthily on the increase. It grew from IS per cent in Deceialc r to 12 per cent on March In. which is the date of the all upon which today's report is based. Shows Sound Condition The report was the occasion of near-holiday rejoicing around the (apitol. To officials who know about such matters it proved two things: It proved that the Nebraska hank guaranty fund commission was speak ing the truth when it announced some days airo that all of the disas trous bank failures to be experienced were now past, and that the losses from now on would he small. It also proved that these 777 remaining hanks are i;i extremely sound condi tion, and that now that the weak hanks have been all b ailed out by be guaranty fund. tile state-wide oiidition of state hanking is bet ter .l.an it hai- been for many, many yei.rs and growing ;ti!l better. "'t will be n. ted." said Secretary.

The reu -on only 777 banks re pined on the present call, compan d with S.-jT, on the call for Dectmber, is that in the meantime the st-i!e guaranty lund commission withdrew all the banks which it had been op erating as "going concerns." but vliich wire, plainly speaking, failed hanks kept in operation for polity's, ake.

Rail Car to Go Four Miles Per Minute Soon Air Propelcrs Fore and Ait Will Speed it Along, Suspended From Overhead Rail Berlin. April 2!. The Twentieth century has been characterized as the century of sp d, and inventors all over the world, especially in Ger many, are curgeling their brains to devise quicker means of preceding from one place to another. One of these schemes whith will soon be realized is a monorail elec tric railway with a spherical car re sembling an airship, driven by a prop lb r fore and aft. This car, designed by the const ru eompany, is expected to travel a a speed of 22.", miles an hour. The mono-railway is to run between the liuhr mining district and Berlin. "Gills" Cool Motors The car, suspended from an over head rail, will travel with an ingen ious airangcnent of ball-bearings to minimize the friction on contact with that rail. The car is reversible, oils itself automatically, and brushes the monorail ( lean by a couple of brushes fixed in front of the opening to the ball-bearing (ham her. The four electric motors are air cooled through openings like a fish's gill.s and the air after passing thru the engine room escapes by bemilar openings. A Dresden engineer claims to have invented a ship which will suck it self through the water and utilize the power required by the water passing through the ship (instead of being pushed aside by it) to propel the ve.-.si 1 forward.
