In the movement and It ha been ug

The general assembly by unanimous vote
of both houses ha passed a bill, which
has todsy received my signature, carrying
an appropriation of $10,0u0 for the erec
tion of a pedestal for a monument to be
erected in nemory of the lute Senator
William B. Allison. The bill nrovides that
the amount exepended fop the pedestal
shall not exceed m per cent of the amount
raised by popular subscription or dona
tion for the erection of the monument.
A commission has been created for the
purpose of selecting a aite upon, or adja
cent to. tha capltoi ground in tiie city of
De Moines, and to supervise and direct
the erection of the monument. General
Granville M. Dodgo of Council Bluffs Is
named chairman of the Monument com
mission, and the Hon. W. W. Morrow,
treasurer of state, ha been elected as
treasurer. The congress of the I'nlted

March 1. being the eightieth anniversary

Our state ha erected monuhieul to our

Varloua battlefields where our soldiers did
honor both to themselves and our com
monwealth, but up to the present time,
o far aa I am aware, no monument ha

I want to give my hearty approval and
endorsement to fhe plan which has boon
adopted bcth by the legislature and the
Allison Monument commission for the rais
ing of fund and tha erection of the monu
ment, and I trust that all of our people
will respond liberally and promptly to this
Bkt worthy undertaking at the head of

VICTIMS OF GRAFTERS ARB MANY
Details of Their Operation Com la a;
to Light.'
In renting a suite or office in the Mer
rlam block, J. C. Maybray and hi asso
ciates, who are charged with relieving
Bunker B&lley of Princeton, Mo,, and nu
merous other wealthy men of large sum
of money, represented to Custodian Pierce
of the building that they were connected
with the Southern Land and Timber com
pany. A man named Craft, who had tho
appearance of a prosperous business man,
conducted the negotiations for renting the
office and these arrangement were later
approved by a man giving the nam of
Mason. It was Mason who owned the red
automobile and la believed by Pierce to
have been none other than Maybray.
After the stranger had occupied the
room for some time Pierce' suspicions
were groused from the fact that tha mem
bur of tho supposed Southern Land and
Timber company never left a single scrap
of paper about the office, although there
waa a typewriter and other article of office
furniture in the room.
When the "firm" gave up It office last
November It was Crafts who notified Pierce
that they would not require the room any
longer. Crafts, according to Fierce, gave
a the reason for not requiring tha office
any longer that Mason had died. It wa
about thl time that Maybray made a
hurried departure from Council Bluffa on
learning. It is believed, that the govern
ment authorities were on hla track.
On of the witnesses before the recent
grand Jury which returned the indictment
against Maybray and his alleged asso
ciates for conspiracy in connection with
tha alleged swindling of Banker Ballaw
waa Frank Blank cashier in E. E. Hart'
private bank. He testified to Maybray
renting a atrong bog In . the bank from
May until November of last year. Early
In November a stranger presented a letter
to Mr. Blank from Maybray, In which
tiio latter stated he had sold hi right in
the box to Mr. Clarke and directing- that
the bearer, "Mr. Clarke," be given tb u
of the box. On of the men arrested with
Maybray at Little Rock gave the name of
Clarke.
Dr. F. H. Holllngsworth, a local veter
inary aurgaon, testified before the grand
Jury to treating two rac horses during
the summer of These horses, ha said,
were visited while at his place by several
well dressed men who appeared to be In
terested In the animals. On of tha
stranger who cam to look at the horse
drove a red automobile. It waa the owner
of the red automobile, Dr. Holllngsworth
testified, who paid him for treating the
horses.
Among the victim of the rang was
Samuei Sutor, a wealthy bote! man of
Caaa Lake, Minn. Sutor la Mid to bav
