Austin Slightly Hurt-
hoi? riu, Kns , 8ept. 10.—Edwin E.
Ives, t.viumaster of the middle divi-
sion of the Santa Fe, was killed here
last iiiulit by being run over by a
switch engine. Ivea and A. E. Austin,
traimn niter of the eastern division
w h i-o home is at Topeka, were in the
freight yards about 9:30 o’clock lust
night, watching some heavy trniu*
come in. They hnd just stepped from
one track to another i > avoid a train
approaching in front of them, when a
switch engine r.truck both men from
behind. Austin was thrown out of
danger, but Ives fell across the mil
mid the wheels ph«*s d over his body.
11* lived about thirty minutes. Train-
inaster Austin was not seriously hurt.

Business Men Meet.
Accordlrg to ^ail there will be a
meeting of the bus ness men of this
ci.y at the opera house at 7:30 for the
purpe-e of arranging to form a busi-
ness men’s club. Bo many efforts have
been made in this direction and each of
them have faiiei because of the negli-
gence and carelessness of the very fel-
lows who should take r.n active part
that many of tbe business men of the
city arc discouraged and take bold of
tbe matter reluctantly. Try and get
out tonight and let the meeting have
som- life and vim. Btart the thing off
with a hurrah and keep it up right
along. That is tbe only way to suc-
ceed and the oulj way to forge to the
front.
hi# annual biennial report to the gov-
ernor 'd Oklahoma, covering the years
ef 1 *91 end 15*02. 1 e report covers
a.' hs: k#. except nati uinl banks, do-
ing business in Oklal. <n.a The rt port
also shows, among c htr t!,:ngs that
t0 j there are l.v banks doing business un-
Ider the laws of Oklahoma in the terri-
tory.
During tbe period covered by this
report there bare been 124 new banks
opened fur business; 22 territorial
banks have been nationalized ; 3 have
gone into voluntary liquidation and
paid depositors in full. No banks have
been placed in the hands of receivers.
Amount of deposit per capita of en-
tire population of tbe territory, based
on population of 503,000, in territorial
banks. $15.67.
Amount of deporit per capita of en-
tire population of the territory, based
on population of 500,000, in national
banks, $22.00.
Amount cf deposit per capita of
population of territory in both terri-
torial and national banks, $37.67.
Average reserve, national banks, 18.
47 per cent.
Average reserve, territorial banks,
43*4 per cent.
The excessive amount of deposits
held by the 66 national banks over the
amount held by the territorial banks
may be accounted foJ to a large ex-
tent from the fact that many national
banks of th* territory are used as re-
serve agents by the territorial banks

Before Lindsay got through with his
job he looked like a cyclone hud struck
him- He was carried off the field and
after being patched up was taken to
police court and fined. There is a
moral to this.
William Jennings Bryan made e.
speech at Joplin, Mo., last week and
was listened to by mote than 5,000
p*ople. He declared in his speech
that the Kansas City platform repre-
sents the policy of the national demo-
cracy. Many of the democratic state
platforms in e declaring against that
platform and it looks like Mr. Bryan
will be necessitated to seek shelter
with the populists. Time will tell.

Kelley Looses Out.
In the case of Patrick Kvlley against
bis son Tom, to quiet the title to the
old man’s homestead the court decid-
ed against the old man on the east
eighty of the farm and in his favor so
far a® the west eighty is concerned.
This is the case from the western
part of the county in which Patrick
Kelley had claimed that the son hud
forged deeds to the homestead, mak-
ing them out to himself, and then
mortgaged the whole fsrin. One of
the deeds, the onu tran-fering the
title to the * a-’, eighty of the farm was
acknowledged in Mulhall, and the one
relating to the other half of the farm
was acknowledged in Coyle. In the
instruments it appears that Pat signed
one of them while hi® wife signed by
a cr i- and in tfeo o; 'ier instrument it
appear# that the wifesipiied the piper
while Pat’s signature is by a cross.
; Both tlietf- parties swear positively
c'fy j that neither of them can write. They
claimed tfe.it their son had worked up
The president will soon order a cen-
susofthe Philippines. The Philippine
act passed at- the last session of con-
gress provides that as soon es the “ex-
isting insurrection” in the archipelago
has .been suppressed the president
shall order a census to be taken by the
commissioners. Under the act the in-
quiry is to include an enumeration of
population, showing the race, religion,
illiteracy, industrial and financial con-
ditions, etc., of the people.
Burke Is~Cleared.
The jury in the case against New-
ton Burke, charged with shooting at
Frank Parrott near Marena about a
year ago.returned a verdict this morn-
ing after having been out all night, in
favor of the defendant. In this case
the injured party had one eye shot out
by the defendant, who admitted that
he liad fired the gun from ambush with
murderous intent, yet the jury of
twelvecitizens of this county turn him
loose and say he is cuiit’ess.
