Benton County Judge Buies Against Williams In Lowe Suit.

Judge Saunderson, of the BentonWarren court, in the session of the Benton county court at Fdwler Wednesday, gave John Lowe, of Monon, a judgment against Attorney G. A. Williams, of this city, for the full amount of his claim. The case may be reviewed with interest. The firm of Baughman & Williams had been employed by Mr. Lowe to make a collection for him, and the money ~waer collected on April 15, 1904. When Mr. Williams deposited it in the bank he told Walter White, the assistant cashier of the McCoy bank, that it was a trust fund for John Lowe, but Mr. White credited it to the account of Mr. Williams. Mr. Lowe w-as notified that the money had been collected and he came here on the afternoon of the following day, April 16th. Mr. Baughman remarked to Mr. Lowe that it was a quarter of four o’clock and if he wanted to get the money he w'ould have to get over to the bank in a hurry. Mr. Williams started to go, in order that he might get the money, but Mr. Lowe stopped him, stating that he had some other business he wished to transact. When they had concluded the other business the blinds at the bank were closed and Mr. Lowe said, “Well, I would Just as soon have a check as the currency, anyway," and Mr. Williams forthwith wrote him a check, which he accepted. On Monday morning the doors of the bank did not open and, of course, the money was not paid, and Mr. Lowe brought suit against Baughman & Williams for the money, >624. The case was first heard by Emery Sellers, as special judge; and he found for the plaintiff, but the decision was reversed by the supreme court and the case remanded for retrial. It was venued to Fowler and came up for trial Wednesday. No witnesses testified but the defense filed answers to the complaint and the plaintiff filed demurrers, which the court sustained, thus holding the answers insufficient, and judgment was rendered against Mr. Williams, who succeeded the Baughman & Williams firm. Mr. Williams took an appeal and the case will come up its due time in the supreme court. Mr. Williams was represented by Attorney Frank Foltz. If a man happens to know who wrote “Yankee Doodle” he thinks he’s musical. There’s nobody who wouldn’t rather be a live liar than a dead truth-teller. The tight fisted usually think they have a great grip on the rock. The reason a girl won’t let a man kiss her is she knows he will do it anyhow.

John R. Walsh Makes Deals That Pay All Debts.

John R. Walsh, the Chicago banker and expensive Indiana railroad magnate, whj has been in trouble with the national banking laws for the past few years, and who has had financial reverses that threatened to>leave |im a pauper, has succeeded in making deals that will pay all of his debts and probably leave him $2,000,090. By this trade he will be able to pay into the coffers of the Chicago National Bank enough money to declare a 100 per cent dividend upon that stock, and the sales are declared to be a marvelous achievement, as it was generally considered that he was down and out. Mr. Walsh still faces a prospect of going to the penitentiary and when it was learned in Chicago Wednesday that he had made a deal by which the overdue interest on his loan would be paid and that he will receive cash beyond the amount of his indebtedness five extra secret service men were put on his track with instructions to watch him night and day, for fear he would make an effort to escape from the country. Mr. Walsh is nQt without his warm friends and admirers and his railroad building in Indiana has made him many friends in this state, and some of the stories told of his precise and exacting methods are very interesting. Walsh was never an intentional criminal. He had faith in his operations and he overstepped/.jfle law in the use of money on deposit!ln his bank. ' f

Suicided To Secure Money With Which Family Might Live.

A story of devotion that led to suicide comes from Frankfort, Ind., where George W. Benjamin took his life on October 14th in order that his family might collect his $20,000 in life insurance. Benjamin had at one time been wealthy but he had lost extensively on board of trade operations and was finally about to be evicted from his home. He inquired if life insurance could be collected if a man suicided and being assured that It was collectable, he wrote a long letter to his wife explaining details 6f his business and then went to his room and buried hisNace in a sponge saturated with chloroform. An hour before he committed the deed he assured his wife that he had made all arrangements for the settlement of his debts but he did not intimate how the money was to be procured. The insurance will all be paid as he had carried it beyond the suicide clause requirement!. The easiest thing to see is why a woman thinks she has pretty ankles.

George Timberlake, of Bloomington, Goes to Jail For Thirty Days.

Probably a good many Rensselaer people know or know of George Timberlake, who formerly conducted a cigar store across the street from the Lahr house at Lafayette. George had financial troubles at Lafayette, having lost about $7,000 on a horse race tip given him by a supposed friend. He had borrowed a lot of money and could not pay his creditors and blew clear out. He went to Bloomington with $25 and started a cigar store in a little out of the way place, but he was an interesting 'fellow and attracted trade. He soon had a little money and moved to better quarters and added a pool room to his enlarged cigar business. Prosperity seemed to be carrying him at high tide until a grand jury got after him and found indictments that resulted in his conviction for selling liquor under the “blind tiger” act. He sold “Egyptian hop malt,” which he alleged to be a non-intoxicant, but analysis proved it to be a 4 per cent alcholic drink of the highest type beer test. A jury found him guilty and he was fined SSO and sentenced to 30 days in jail. He made a desperate effort to avert the jail sentence but his attorneys were unsuccessful in getting a new trial and he entered upon his sentehce Wednesday. Tlmberlake had become one of the. leading society men at Bloomington and his incarceration is ape to result in a cessation us the lionizing attitude of Bloomington.

Local Militia Company Made Fine Appearance In New Uniforms.

A consignment of new uniforms was received by the local militia company last week and the men wore them at the Wednesday night drill for the first time. They consist of coats, breeches, shirts and caps, all of olive drab, and the new canvas puttee leggins. There have been an even dozen enlistments in the company during the month and it is expected to take in about a dozen - more. The enlisting officer will be glad to talk young men who will attend drills reg-‘ ularly and take an interest in the affairs of the company.

While the ruling relative to the former date is final, nothing definite has been dorts concerning the Christmas rates, although it is thought that none will be granted at this time, either.
