HANLON STOPS PAYMENT OF THE STAKES s Ialn that the Course Was Changed A to Wolster Up o Kiek—ilis De fent Without n Question or Doubt, Ontriia, Ont., July 24.—The Hanlon-Gau- daur championship boat race attracted a large crowd today. A stiff breezo made the course a little rough at the turn. Both men were in good condition, At the start Hanlon shot to the front like a flash, and soon led bya full length, Both wen wore rowing about thirty-four strokes to the minute. After the first half mile Gandaur quickly overtook Hanlon and at the turn was lead- ing by a full length, with Hanlon apparently out of it. He increased his lead untila quarter of a mile from the finish, when he stopped to wave a response to his cheering friends. He then made a magnificent spurt and crossed the lino an easy winner by seven lengths in 10:53, Hanlon was twelve seconds behind and notified the stakeholders not to pay over the meney, claiming that the course had been changed.

New Yonk, July 24.—The next fistic en- tertainment to be held before the Coney Island Athletic club is scheduled for August 7. The principal event of the evening will be a fight to a finish for a purse of &, tween George Dixon, the featherweight champion of the world, and Eddie Pierce, a local featherweight, who has but recently envered the professional pugilistic arena. in a recent fight with George Siddons he suc- ceoded in standing him off for forty rounds and would no doubt have defeated him but for the latter's tricky fiehting and clever generalship. The men are hard at work training for the fight. The odds are at present in favor of Dixon at about 2 to 1, but it is believed that these will materially de- crease before the day fixed for the fight ar- rives. The preliminary bout of the night will be a ten-round affair for $1,000 between Danny MeBride and Tim Murphy, both New York pugilists of great cleverness. Tho Bemis Park Gun club will give its first annual picnic on Tuesday, July 25, The club will furnish the conveyances and start ill be made at 8:30 a. m. sharp from 1414 am street, ofMce of the Nebraska Fuel company.

A meeting of the club will take place during the day to vote on the admission of soveral applicatits and o take action on the amendment of the by-laws brought up at the last_meoting in regard to tho reduction of the initiation fee and to transact other business.

LIGHT DEMANDS FOR ACCOMMODATION Cuorrency and Gola Being Shipped to the Conntry—The Wave of Unrest Sweep- Ing Toward Ohio—~Philadoiphia’s Very Peculiar Situstion. New Yonk, July 24.—The banks reported the condition ns fairly easy and, to some ex- tent, better, inasmuch as the demands for accommodation wore light. The most nota- ble demands for assistance today were from Ohio. The calls for currency today were light. The subtreasury was debtor at the clearing house this morning only $118,000, and that sum was paid in notes. What caused the treasury officials to pay in notes instoad of gold, as they have done for the past weeky could not be ascertained, but it was asserted the protest of the banks through the press against the inconvenient method of settling the clearing house bal- ances in gold had caused them to see the ab- surdity of the practice. The indications to- day that a considerable amount of currency was being received from some sections of the country by the panks in this city is being offsot by shipments to other places. One leading bank received $125,000 on Saturday, while its shipments were not noarly so much, but on the other hand there were some banks on Saturday that shipped a great deal of currency without any receipts to offset those shipments. Henvy Shipments of Currency Expeated. From the demands received today from Ohio and some other places for rediscounts, it is believed that the shipments of currency to those sections this week will be heavy. In many instances auring the last fow days, gold has been shippod to the country stead of currency, and more will probably be sent. ‘The banks asking for the accomoda- tion are providing themselves against runs as the wave of distrust sweeps over their localities. Speaking of the great number of western nks which closed on Saturday, the prosi- of one of the largest national banks in the city said today that he believed that in the majority of cases they were not failures, but only suspensions; that they were.por- fectly solvent and that they would resume business again in a few days stronger than ever, New and’s Situation, The situation in Now England is attract- ing a great deal of attention now and especially in tho manufactories. At the oftice of Watson & Gibson, 55 Broad- way, it was said that some trade advices from Boston were to the effect that money was practically unlendable in that city at 6 percent and stocks wero being carried at4 percent. “I consider,’ said Mr. Gib- son, “the situation as regards the New 1d factories the most sorious factor n this market.” The failure of tho Milwaukeo bank on Snturday wa y rally discussed in this ity today. Tho failure was not unex- pected by wide-awako bankers in this city, somo of the most conservative of whom had been aware of its real condition for some time. One of these bankers said today that the report that the failuro of the bank was due to tho failure of the Schlessinger syndi- @sto was not true. This bank's failuro, it was said, was due to having overloaned to soveral patties with which the Schlessinger syndicate had nothing to do. At Phiindelphia. Several banks this morning reported their inability to mako collections in Philadelphia or obtain payment of the large balances they have to their credit with some banks in that city. One bank here has betweon £500,- 000 and $500,000 in Philadolphia which it is unable to obtain without recourse to measures which would probably cause troublo to the banks referred to in that city. New York banks, as a rule,are now refusing to accept drafts from their customers on Philadelphia banks, except for collection at the depositor's risk. In some cases where merchants in this city have had drafts on Philadelphia thoy have sent them thore by special messenger for special col- loction over the counter. This course, how- ever, involves trouble of identification, and when it has been ndopted a liberal commis- sion has had to be paid for New York ex- change currency not being obtainable. Ac- cording to the reports to the comptroller,the Philadelphia national banks were as well supplied with cash on July 12 as were the uational banks of this city. Those reports show that on that day the.rescrve of the onal banks of Philadelphia amounted to per cent of the deposits. It is a cause of some wonderment, therefore, why tho Philadelphia banks should be so slow in making the romittances to this city. SILV @ PURCHASES. Fifty Thousand ©unces Bought—Carllsle’s Construction of the Sherman Law. WasnixaroN, July 24.—Acting Mint DI- rector Preston this afternoon, in response to his counter offer, purchased 50,000 ounces of silver at $0.6040 per ounce. Thi is no prospect of purchasing the full quota of 500,000 ounces of silver this month. Mr. ton states that the department, if it 1s to purchaso tho full quota this month, will not make up tho deficiency next month. That is, if only 2,300,000 ounces of silver are purchased thms month the depurtment will not purchaso the 2,000,000 ounces short this month and the 4,500,000 ounces next month, the usual monthly purchase, Kach month's purchase will stand by itself, and : ay bappen that ot the end of the the azgrogato purchase instead 000,000, may be ouly half that amount. : “This is tho construction placed upon the Sheriman law as to the requi vor purchased, by Secretary Carlisle, consequenco of short purch the amount of voin, or Sherman notes, issuel against tho silyer bullion purchased’ under the law will, of course, be correspondingly low.

New Yonrk, July ¥.—The counsel of the law committee of the New York Stock ex- change has been roquegted to formulato and present chargos against H. G. Weil for un- businesslike language and actions detrimen- tal to the bost interests of the exchange. Mr. Weil will havo his first hearing before the eovernors on August 4. Weil is the broker who recently refused to take gold in payment for §0,000 government 4 por cent bonds purchased by Harvey Fisk & Sons, but he subsequently changed his mind when Fisk threatened to buy bonds in ‘‘under tne rule.” Ho is also the hero of the Manhattan Banking company incident of last week. At that time ho was credited with the state- ment that the bank could not furnish him with currency he had deposited. The offl- cials of the bank subsequently denied his statement aud ordercd him to withdraw his accounts, The maximum penalty for the offense charged is suspension for one year and the loss of the privileges of the ex- change. Sucpension of the Louisy Louvisvitee, July 24, —The Loulsville City National bank closed its doors this evening. Since the financial dificultios began the bank has exerted every power to increase its cash resources, but could make little headway against the general stringency. ‘Lhe statement of the bank made July 12, by order of the comptroller of the currency, shows resources, including loans and dis- counts, of $1,100,705, with liabilities, outside of the capital stock paid in, which is $400,000, of §709,705. It is hardly probablo the bank will resume. Three years ago, Pope, its toller, flod with over $70,000, and this was a hard blow to the bank. Depositors will be paid in full. The local banks received over 8500,000 from New York this morning and no excitement is being shown. Rofus, tooeive silver. Ciioago, July 24.—All day today as tho bank employes, carrying sacks of silver coin of all denominations, entered the United States subtreasury, a notice confronted them to the effect that silver would not be received, and they haa to trudge back to their banks with theirheavy loads. ““There 18 more silver lying uncounted bo- hind the rails of the subtreasury than the force can handle,” said an official of the de- partment this afternoon. “On every shelf and in piles on the floor canvas sacks filled with dollars and other coins are stacked up until there is hardly room to get about. We are unable to handle the big amount of sil- ver we have on hand, and until it can be all counted and checked up we will not receive any more over the counter.” Disappeared with the Lodger. MiLwAUKEE, July 24.—John B. Koetting, cashier of the defunct South Side Savings bank, has disappeared from the city, and simultaneously the discovery wns made that the general ledgor of the institution is not among the effects of the institution. . Presi- dent Trumpff of the bank says the cashier left Milwaukee last Friday, and before tak- ing his departuro left with him (Trumpff) power of attorney to convey his real estate and homestead, worth &30,000. into cash for the benefit of the bauk's creditors. John Barth has been appointed receiver for the bank. NEW York, July 24.—Henry Bach, whole- salodealer in clothing at No. 737 Broadway with branches in Boston and Chicago has become financially embarrassed and has confessed judgment for $4,017 for loaned money. ‘The liabilities are said to be over $100,000. Mr. Bach says he will ofter 30 per cent on the dollar as a compromise. Min osed Down. Hionrasp Faves, N.

JULY 25, 1893, FLOWERS FROM A FATHER Touohing Inoident at the Morgne Over Hattio Aldrich’s Romains ARRIVAL OF THE DEAD GIRL'S MOTHER Body Will Bo Interred in an Towa Chureh- yard—Hundreds of Poople View the Corpse—Tor Last Lotter Inspired by Rider Huggard's Boatrios. The remains of Hattie Aldrich, the girl who suicided on Sunday, will be shipped to her home in Towa by Coroner Maul at 11:30 this morning. The mother of the dead girl arrived from Mapleton, In., yesterday. The scenc at tte morgue, when she boheld all that was left of her daughter, was indeed a pititul one. Her grief knew no bounds, and with a heart bowed with sorrow, she was led away after gazing with o tear-stained face at the re- mains. Mrs. Aldrich will accompany the romains of Hattie to Mapleton, Inspired by Haggard's Beatrloe, The excoedingly pathetic lettor left by the unfortunate girl, and addressed to krank Donecken, caused many oyes in Omaha to fill with sympathetic tears yostordav. Men who possessed hearts of oak, where pity sol- dom nestled, felt choked with emotion at the pitiful eloquence of the communication, written while the hideous skeleton of death looked over tho shoulder of the despondent weritor. Tho letter sounds somewhat fam'liar to all who have read Rider Hagrard's novel entitled “Beatrice.” Tho metaphors are similar and the languago possosses the same ring as that embodied in the farewell noto which forms a feature of ono of the chapters of “Beatrico.” Possibly it was an_inspira- tion that, formed a striking coincidence. 1t may have been n sort of semi-plagiarism, but, nevertheless, the last lotter of poor, de- voted Hattic Aldrich appealed to many hearts in this city yesterday. Struggled Agalnst Fate. The history of tho girl since sho has boen in Omaha shows that she hus been as much sinned against as sho was sinful. Hattie was the elder daughter of a wid- owed mother who is only in moderate cir- cumstances and whose homo is in that protty rural low: Hattie cam oral months ago, and, being somewhat unsophisticated becamo an easy victim to the oily tongue of a tempter. At one time she was accused of receiving goods stolen from Bell's drug store, but on investigation it was proven that the goods were given to her as presents from a young clerk who was an adm She was not only pretty, but _extremely attractive, and a brignt conversationahst. She made many friends. Not being used to hard work and being of limited means, sho finally yielded to thoe temptation of & man of means, who supported her for a while. Sho tired of the life sho was leading and the kind hearted police matron, Mrs. Cumings, secured a rl:wu for her in a rospectable family, where she hada a pleasant homo and was respected for her worth. She remainod in her new home for two months and then took a room in the Manderson block. It is hinted that she did S0 at tho suggestion of one whom she thought really loved her,, She was infatuated = with and the intensity of love and nature of which she is capable is shown by the desperate means by which sho sought to end her troubles. Not being ablo to have tho undivided love of the man whom she loved. she mado tho sad sacrifice of Sun- day ovening in order that ho might cnjoy a greater freedom and not be menaced by her presence on carth. She did not blame him for her troubles aud sought relief in the grave. Hundreds of peoplo filled with sympa- thetic curiosity viewed the remains in tho morgue yesterday. Tho girl had not lost her beauty of featuro and form. oven in the cold embrace of death. Fully 500 people vis- ited the morgue yesterday toseo her. Flowers from a Father. One touching incident occurred during tho afternoon. An elderly, well dressod man with snowy hair, asked permission to lay a handsome bunet’ of fragrant whito flowers on the body. The request was granted, ana the old man with moistcned eyes withdrew from the gaze of the curious crowd. Attached to the flowers was a card with the following inscription: “A Stranger, with sympathy. From a father of an only daughter.” A BEE reporter who witnessed this touch- ing tribute hastenea after the gentloman this man and asked for an explanation, The man refused to give . his name but said the dead girl reminded him very much of his own beloved daughter who has a happy home in an_eastern state. He had read vhe account of the girl's death in Twe Bre and her plaintive letter had deeply touchod him. He wanted to do something to show his sympathy, and bought the flowers to place on the unfortunate girl's body. Ho said that he would appreciate any such attention to his daughter if cruel fate had decreed the same ending for her. He was much affected as he thought of how Hattic's mother must feel over her davghter's tragic death. Letters from the girl's mother showed that a deep bond of sympathy existed between the girl and her sorrowing parent, Buv Hattie had concealed her shame from her dear old mother. ‘The remains will be quietly interred in the silont of the dead in Mapleton Thurs- day and the last act in the girl's sad career will be closed.

NEW YORK, July 24.—A new and start- ling theory has been advanced as to the cause of the sinking of the British battle ship Victoria by the Camperdown. lrish revolutionists claim that the sinking of the vessol was tho vesult, not of acc dent, but of a deep-laid plot, which has for its object the destruction, if possible, of the British navy and the infliction of dire injury on England in every quarte of tho globe where her flag flies. A ci cular copy of the plot, which a morning paper succeeded in obtaining, and which has been promulgated in Irish Nation- alist circles, claims for the revolution- ists the honor of striking such a heavy blow to England. Referring to Admiral Tryon's maneuver. the circular, which bears date of July 12, says: “Admiral Tryon is not guilty of the loss of the Vietoria. He is a vietim of the sins of his country. Tho maneuver which he proposed the fleet should por- form would have been successfully car- ried out had our brave brothers in England’s service not boen cqual to the opportunity atfforded them and given themselves a willing sacrifice for tho cause of Ireland. For the better pro- tection of the interests we haveat hear we will not announce whether any of our brothers who were on board the Vi toria escaped death in the waters of the Mediterranean. “It is suflicient for you, for tho pres- ent, to know that a noble deed has been done and that Ireland has still sons for whom death has no terrors when theil lives are asked for her sake. The spirvit of Emmet still lives and the fight must be carried on until England hauls down her flag in Iroland. “Weo have sworn almost every Engl have them in the Knglish regiments at home and abroad, and wherever the English flag floats there also may our men bo found.
