TROUBLE IS WITH PARENT INSTITUTION
F, Patterson, Manasrer of Western
Branch, "darned as Local Receiver
for the Company by
rteferre.
The bankruptcy proceedings commenced
In Chicago against the Keystone Manufac
turing company of Sterling, III., have In
volved the company's western branch house
In this city. A duplicate of the petition In
the Chicsgo court has been filed In the
United States court here.
J. F. Patterson, who has been manager of
the company's western business for the last
sixteen years, with headquarters in this
city, has been appointed receiver of the
Council Bluffs branch by W. S. Mayno,
referee In bankruptcy. Mr. Patterson will
act In conjunction with H. L. Wilson, the
receiver appointed in the original proceed
ings in Chicago.
The financial embarrassment of the com
pany !s s?.!d to be due to Its inability to
realize on collateral and the opinion Is ex
pressed that the trouble will be temporary
only and that the company will be able to
resume business.
The Keystone Manufacturing company I
one of the pioneer houses on Implement
row, having been established here for
twenty-five years. The news of the com
pany's failure came as a great surprise, as
even Mr. Patterson was not aware until
Friday that creditors had begun bankruptcy
proceedings In Chicago. That similar pro
ceedings would be brought here was looked
upon as a natural sequonce.
The extent of the company's liabilities Is
not known here, as the head offices are in
Sterling, 111.

William and Henry Droge began suit In
the district court yesterday against the
Kansas City, St. Joseph ft Council Bluffs
Railroad company and the Chicago, Bur
lington ft Qulncy Railway company for $1,
177.80 damages for alleged losses by Ore.
They assert that on July 15, 1899, October

growing grass and hay In stack and fence
poles to the value of the amount sued for

In the matter of the application for the
appointment of a receiver In the suit of O.
F. Asmussen of Des Moines against Michael
Dalley, Judge Wheeler yesterday held that
the plaintiff had failed to show that a part
nership as claimed .existed and denied the
request. He, however, on application of the
plaintiff, appointed John Battes, former
chief of the fire department of this city, as
guardian for Dalley, who was recently ad
Judged insane by the commissioners. As
mussen advanced Dalley nearly $2,000 to
stock and operate a farm near this city

was adjudged insane Asmussett decided It
was neceasary to take some steps to In
sure the return of the money he had ad
vanced. Plumbing and beating. Blxby A Son.
Seine Makes a Lltrht Haal. "
The first attempt to seine Lake Manawa to
rid the waters of the fish which are said to
prey upon the bass and other game fish
was made yesterday afternoon under the
supervision of Deputy Warden Brown. Rep
resentatives of the motor company and a
number of othera interested in the attempt
were present. Owing to the seine, which
was a new one, not being property weighted
with lead the attempt was a dismal failure
and the haul only brought to light five gars
and one bass, all of which were "grilled"
u the meshes. The gars were destroyed
md the bass returned to the lake.
When the men were bringing the net to
.he surface Deputy Warden Brown, who
was anticipating a big haul of the maraud
ing class of fish, excitedly exclaimed, "Now
boys, you will see the greatest sight you
evor saw." When the net came up with
only six fish, and they simply entagled by
tbelr gills In the meshes, his disappoint
ment was keen. Another attempt to seine
the lake at another point will be made Mon
day. Another Heating Store Frt.
The first heating stove given by William

Flllna" Their Bonds.
New state officials and those whose terms
begin anew have been filing their bonds
today. The new state auditor filed a fidelity
bond of $100,000 and his deputy and Insur
ance clerk each 825,000 bonds. The treas
urer of state filed a new $509,000 bond and
his deputy one of $100,000, both personal
bonds. An arrangement has been entered
into which will change the rule in regard
to banks designated as state depositories.
The state executive council will' here
after require . of them that tbey shall
formally pass a resolution taking upon
the banks the full responsibility and shall
make application by the president and
cashier and the directory board. At the
same time a record will be kept of these
matters, as never before. All the state's
money is kept either in the treasury or In
Des Moines banks.
ew Coal Fields Fonnd.
Des Moines capitalists have uncovered a
vein' of coal in Dallas county ln a field
hitherto unknown. This lies northwest of
De Soto and southwest of Adel. A vein
from three to three and a half feet thick
of good coal has been found, almost crop
ping out, as the discovery was made at a
depth of about sixty feet. Tbey propose
opening a mine and it Is probable tha: the
Milwaukee railroad will construct a spur
to the mine. This coal field is the farthest
west of any discovered and is probably not
very large.
Hotel Fight Is Ended.
The big controversy In Forest City, Win
nebago county, over real estate matters
and hotels has come to an end. Real estate
owners were rivals ln booming the two
ends of the city. Two companies were
formed and each one built a hotel. The
hotels were of a slxe and quality to suit
a city ten times aa large. After both
hotels the Waldorf and the Astoria bad
been run at a loss for several years, one
company bought both. This week the com
pany sold the Waldorf, which cost $60,000,
and provided that It should be torn down
and the ground cleared. It was sold for
$12,000.
Governor Appoints Given,
General Josiah Given, who a year ago re

that the governor could not choose between
them. It was also announced today that
republican primaries would be held tn nine '
weeks, when a Judge will be named who will

STEAL PROCEEDS OF A FARM
Robbers Visit llnnac of Hamilton
Man aad One of Them
la Shot.
KNOXVILLE, la., Jan. 3. (Special )-At
the village of Hamilton, in the southern
part of Marlon county, there Is great ex
citement today over a robbery of last night.
Posses of citizens sre scouring tho country
for two miscreants, with good hope of suc
cess, while a third of the gang lies wound-'d
in Jail here. The trio of highwaymen en
tered the home of Mr. snd Mrs. Sullivan,
In the outskirts of the town, at a late hour
of the night. Mr. Sullivan had just sold
a farm and had $1,800 in the house at the
time, which was evidently known by the
robber. They presented revolvers and
demanded that they stand up, with their
faces to the wail, and hold their hands
aloft. There was nothing left for .Mr. and
Mr. Sullivan to do but comply. One of the
robber stood guard over them while the
other ffot the money. They compelled
Mr. Sullivan to tell where It was locsted,
so that the securing of the coveted cash
ws an easy task.
The two who made the search left the
room first with the money ln their pos
session. The other followed on the run.
Mr. Sullivan was quick-witted and imme
diately seized his shotgun, which was con
cealed near by. He hastened to the door
and fired at tho retreating man. The rob
ber evidently turned Just as the shot was
fired, for he received tho charge In his face
and tho whole side of his face was torn
off and one eye destroyed. He fell to the
ground, unable to proceed, but the other
two showed fight and opened Are on Mr.
Sullivan. He returned the fire two or three
times and felt confident that he hit one of
them. Sullivan was not harmed.
The two fled in the darkness and the citi
zens were aroused at once to mnke a hunt
for them.
The wounded man was captured and
brought this morning to Knoxvllle. where
he was placed in Jail. He Is badly woundei, i
but able to talk. He refused to give his
name. All he asked was: ;
"Did they hurt Jim?"
The wounded man has not been Identi
fied. The two men who got away had the
money. It is believed they did not live far
away, and It is expected they will be
caught soon.

A WOMAN TO BE PRETTY
Mast Have Luxuriant and Glossy Hair,
No Matter What Color.
The finest contour of a female' face, the
sweetest smile of a female mouth, loses
something If the head Is crowned with
scant hair. Scant and falling hair. It Is
now known. Is caused by a parasite that
burrows Into the scalp to the root of the
hair, where it saps the vitality. The little
white scales the germ throws up ln burrow
ing are called dandruff. To cure dandruff
permanently then and to stop failing hair
that germ must be killed. Newbro's Herpl
clde, an entirely new result of the chemical
laboratory, destroys the dandruff germ, and,
of course, stops the falling hair and cures
baldness.

JEFFERSON CITY. Mo., Jan. 3. Special
Commissioner I. II. Kinley of Kansa City,
appointed to take testimony In the ouster
proceedings of Attorney General Crows on
the charge of the existence of a beef trust,
filed his report In the supreme court to
night. It finds thst the Armour Pscklng com
pany. Nelson Morris ft Co., Swift and Com
pany, Hammond Packing company, Cudahy
Parking company and the Schwartzschlld ft
Sulzberger company are guilty of entering
Into an agreement to fix and maintain
price fcr the sale of dressed beef and pork
In Missouri, but not all of the companies,
however, operating ln St. Joseph, Kansas
City and St. Louis. It Is set forth that
price were fixed through agents, managers
and solicitors, and many times by managers
of coolers In these cities.
The Henry Krug Packing company of St.
Joseph was found to not have been In the
combination and consequently the report
will release It from legal proceedings.
Regarding findings as to meat sold In St.
Ixiule, the report says;
"I find that the Armour, Swift, Cudahy
and Hammond Packing companies, between
August 21, 18?9. and May ?, 1902, at St.
Joseph, are guilty of having been parties
to a combination and agreement and con
federation and conspiracy to fix and regu
late a.id control and maintain the fixed or
list price on dressed beef and fresh pork
sold throuKh their respective coolers in St.
Louis to the butchers' trade and consuming
public at that place, and that they did so
nsk, s?'l and receive the price so fixed from
said butcher for such dressed beef and
fresh pork sold to them.
"They cannot plead that the managers of
th?ir coolers and city solicitors who carry
on the businees for them did It without
their knowledge and consent. The local
agents of the dressed beef companies did It
and nil knew It nnd their knowledge Is tho
knowledge' of their companies nnd their
acts are the acts cf their companies
"It appears from the evidence, and I find
that the corporations who sre the defeul
ants at St. Joseph, St. Louis and Kansas
City, sell and offer to the trade at each
point from 55 to 80 per cent of the dressed
beef handled and from 50 to 60 per cent of
tho dressed pork." ,
BASE BALL WAR CONTINUES
No Settlement of the Differences Be
tween the American nnd Na
tional I.caeuea.
CHICAGO, Jan. 3. "For tne present there
will not be a meeting of the peace commit
tees of tho American and National leagues,"
said President Ban Johnson of the former
organization today.
'At the first conference in New York," he
continued, "It was understood that the com
mittee from the National league had full
power to dispose of all questions that might
arise. Since then it has developed thst the
league committee had no authority to act
conclusions ly on any matter. Two weeks ago
wrote Chairman Herrmann that if the
National league would clotho its committee
with all power we would be prepared to
meet them, but not until that action had
been taken.
"Mr. Herrmann wired me that he would
have his committee vested with full power.
He has made an earnest effort, but failed.
We were prepared to meet the men of the
National league In the open and strive for a
fair and Just settlement. We were mindful
of the fact that the patrons of tho game, the
country over, wanted peace, and to serve
the best interests of base ball we were pre
pared to do our part to bring peace. No
substantial good could come from a confer
ence with a committee that has limited
power. It would simply be a waste of time
and energy."
SPOKANE, Wash., Jan. 3. President W.
H. Lucas of the Pacific Northwestern Baso
Bali league Is authority for the statement

Leagues has agreed to put every player on

or has played base ball before. President
Lucas states that a $600 fine will be en
forced before such a player can Join a team
ln the national association.
