surprise when I heard It was closed.
When I left I had only a small amount
ot money with me. I have no money, no
property, except what I left In Superior.
I did not have tho courage to moot those-
who lost their money through my incom

by tho wrongs I committed? J am com

Judgo k. B. Dyer, In circuit court here

verdict for the Chesapeake & Ohio Rail
road company, defendant In the action
nf at'h. Anna Hall, who sued to recover
talned when she was shot during tho
miners' strike last year. Judge Dyer,
after hearlnB testimony, decided tho
plaintiff had not made out a case and
told the Jury that If It found . otherwise
it would be necessary to set aside the
finding.
Mrs. Halt alleged she had been shot In
both legs from the armored train whlcli
passed up the Paint Creek branch of the
Chesapeake & Ohio railroad tho night of
FeTiruary 7, 1913.
This was the first of a number of
similar actions growing out of the bat

Assistant Adjutant General Edgerton,
acting as a secret slucth for tho board,
arrived at Superior yesterday,
Mr. Sutherland at the state house this
morning, said suit has been filed In the
federal court against the state bank of
ficials to recover J4G.57C. and on account
of that tho bank was forced to ask for
tho receiver. Claims of depositors will
bo met Tuesday next. The deposits Bhow
122,000, the capital stock Is $15,000 and
the loans amount to J118.000.
As thero Is a total of about $370,000 In
tho state guaranty fund to meet the de
mands of depositors, and there Is no
chance that anyone can lose anything,
(t is difficult to see Just why tho stato
board waB to anxious to keep the publlo

This Is the first time tho stato guaranty
fund has been called upon to meet the
losses sustained by the failure of a stato
bank, and It Is possible that in this caso
very little if any will be needed, except
fled, would have authorized tho United
States "to Intervene in support ot Its
own treaty rights and tho security ot
its own cltlxons whenever Mexico may

A heavy- cordon of ppllce was thrown
around tho camping grounds to keep
tho marchers from scattering throughout

clined ho said:
"For tho men who want work I have
the greatest sympathy nnd I am willing1
to do everything I can to help them. For
tho men who won't work, which I under

Therefore you do not present an un
