A naraber of gentlemen were in the city Thursday from Faulkton. From them was learned these particalare of the Faulk county bank failure; Public Examiner Blanchard has made an examination of the books of County Treasurer Warner, and finds that he bad deposited in the Faulk County bank at the time of its failure over $13,000, and about $3,300 deposited in the Bank of Faulkton at the time of its failure. It appears that the treasurer deposited large sums of the county's money in the Faulk County bank after he knew that the bank was out of funds and unable to pay checks drawn upon to pay seed grain warrants amounting to some $6,000. The failure of the Faulk county bank is said to be due to overdrafts of the treasurer on his private account, aggregating $3,400, and also' of Monroe Hazle to the amount $700. It seems that these accommodations were permitted in consideration tion of deposits of county funds with that particular bank.

It is also said that Treasurer Warner is short $1,000 in addition to the bank accounts. Wears are expressed that the county will lose all, or Dearly all of the money 1 11 the bank at the time closed, as some of Mr. Warner's bondsmen have transferred their property or have it heavily incumbered. The people are more or less excited over the matter and unloes the assets, which have not yet been given, are greater than now anticipated, Mr. Warner and the bank cashier will find difficulty in extricating themselves from their present predicament.

On the side, bowever, it is said that the senatorial contest is the real purpose of the meeting. The reporter chatted with number of those who answered the invitation, and without eaception they were unable to tell why they were called together.

This ignorance may be real and it may be assumed. It is certain, however, that some did not attend the meeting, fearing it was 8 democratic scheme to get the independents committed to Bartlett Tripp or 80m.e other democrat. Some who shared this belief continued their journey to Pierre. Those who are supposed to be on the inside, say nothing aside from arranging plans for the organization of the house and deciding upon certain comittees was considered.
