We are glad to announce that we now offer at 6% first Mortgage Real Estate Certificates To the large number of people who realize that there is no safer security than a real estate mortgage properly made, we believe that the announcement that our First Mortgage Real Estate Certificates tnay now be purchased to yield 6% will be of particular interest. These First Mortgage Real Estate Certificates run for five years and may not be called in for prepayment before that time. They are backed by first mortgage real estate loans on City of Indianapolis property and farm land appraised at at least twice the amount lent. The appraisements are made on a basis of permanent values rather than present inflated values. The loans are made by our loaning organization, which is the outgrowth of more than fifty years’ experience in banking and mortgage lending in the City of Indianapolis. The rigid requirements to which each of our mortgage loans must conform have been in no way lowered and the higher rate of interest which we are now paying is made possible only because of the higher rates now prevailing on mortgage loans. These First Mortgage Real Estate Certificates may be purchased in denominations of SIOO, SSOO and sl*ooo, either for cash or under the terms of our partial payment plan, which provides for the payment of one-tenth in cash and one-tenth per month for nine subsequent months.

RECORD IN R. R. SUIT INVOLVING M’CRAY MISSING Can’t Find Interpleader Filed by N. Y. Central in Jasper County. ENTRY ONLY REMAINS ' (By STAFF CORRESPONDENT) RENSSELABR, Ind., Oct. 18.—For some reason which had best be left to the Imagination tor the Immediate present, a part of the records of the Jasper Circuit Court in the original case of Bayard Taylor vs. Chicago, Indiana and Southern Railway Company, Carroll C. Hunt and Warren T. McCray, have disappeared from the files in the Courthouse here. Specifically, the record that Is now missing ever since Warren T. McCray entered the race for the Republican nomination for Governor, Is an Interpleader filed by the New York Central Railroad on May 81, 1915. In, the court records there Is an entry which reads: May 31, 1015, N. Y. C. files interpleader. Court declines to hear anything In vacation. Diligent search through the files, musty and otherwise, of the office of the clerk of the court reveals nothing of the original Interpleader. Diligent Inquiry made of attorneys who appeared In this case has so far failed to disclose all that the interpleader contained.

M’CRAY’B FRIENDS SILENT ON AFFAIR. Friends of Warren T. McCray simply will not talk about it in public. They profess to have forgotten the affair, or to have become confused regard- j lng Its details and none cares to attempt . to supply at present the missing link iu j a story of a railroad that reads like s j Wullingford serial. How and wheu this record disappeared j Is a tale that lies as deeply burled as the why of Its disappearance. The only public clew to it lies In two other notations on the court docket here These notions are as follows: June 12, 1915. Received of New York Central Railroad Company the sum of *11.201.6?. JIDSON H. PERKINS. Clerk. June IS, 19IS. Received of Jndaon H. Perkins, clerk, the sum of sll,201.07 In full satisfaction us the judgment and the Judgment !• released. BAYARD TAYLOR. It Is interesting to note that the pay- ; mentis above referred to were made about two weeks after the lnterpleadar was filed, that the court was still In vacation ■and no hearing was held on the plea of i Intervention on the part of the New York I Central Railroad In the ease of Taylor vs. the C., I. A 8. R. U, Warren T. McCray and Carroll C. Hunt. Among the things that Mr. McCray Is | not now referring to in his campaign speeches la this case, which went frofn ! the Jasper court to the Supreme Court of Indiana, and the record of which (x----i capttng the Interpleader) is now in the office of the clerk of the Supreme Court, j Mr. McCray may know the contents of this missing document. Perhaps some i of the managers of the J. W. Fealer campaign know. R. R. MAY HAVE COPY NO LONGER INTERESTED.

Anyhow, a rather tall, light-haired young man with great Inquisitiveness railed at the Jasper County clerk's office last spring during the Republican primary fight and sought this mlaslna doeument. The present county clerk, who waited on him, declares that the young man could not find the missing record then, and that ho personally has never aeon it. Undoubtedly, some place In the arch Ives of the New York Central Railroad there reposes a copy of this document. But the New York Central Is no longer Interested In the case. It paid a judgment to Taylor, which proceeding appears to have ended tho whole affair in which the present Republican candidate for Governor had u very deep interest and concerning which lie now la saying nothing—absolutely nothing. For a better understanding of the value In this campaign of Ihe pleading that is mlaslng from the files of the Jasper Circuit Court, one has only to peruse the voluminous record of the appeal of the case to the Supreme Court. From It a very clear Insight into the character of the Warren T. McCray of severnl years ago may bo formed. From It a few examples of the fluent letter writing ability of the man who aspires to be Governor nre obtainable. Such words as "collusion/’ "confidential." "please destroy Hits," "you are not to kno-?' anything at all," etc., make very interesting reading.

Police Sifting Story of Bank Cashier The police today were continuing their Investigation of a story of an attempt'd bank robbery told by Morris Dodd. 18-year-old teller at the Broad Ripple Stale Bank. Dodd said three white men and a negro forced hlnr to open the outer door of the bank’s vault yesterday, but that they were frightened utvay. A part of the burglary alarm at the bank failed tp respond. The police doubt tho boy’s story.
