THE SAN FRAN CISCO CALL, SUNDAY. MAY 10, 1896. REVERSES AND AN ASSIGNMENT, Failure of Schumacher, the Oatmeal King of Ohio. TO00 MANY ENTERPRISES ‘Owes a Million and a Half, but Creditors Will Be Paid in Full ALL PROPERTY TURNED OVER. The Pressed Millionaire Was a Noted Prohibitionist and Once Ran for Governor. ARKON, Onro, May 9.—Ferdinand Schu- macher, the millionaire oatmeal king, president of the American Cereal Com- pany of Chicago, the Schumacher Gym- nasium Company of this city. the Mar- seilles Land and Water Power Company, the Illinois River Paper Company of Mar- seilles, IlL., and the Tennessee Land Com- pany of Harriman, Tenn., assigned at 4 o’clock this afternoon. The liabilities are estimated at $1,500.000 and the assetsat $3,000,000. The assignment was a volun- tary one. Until three years ago Mr. Schumacher was a resident of Akron, at which time he removed to Chicago. When the American Cereal Company was organized he entered the combine and was elected president, which position he occupied and has since held. The failure was caused by his heavy losses in the two companies at Marseilles, which assigned this morning. In order to save these companies Mr. Schumacher borrowed $800,000 from Akron, Cleveland and Massachusetts banks, $200,000 of which would become due this month. The greater portion of this amount could not be renewed nor could Mr. Schumacher raise the mopey to pay the discounts on the notes. Yesterday he called his attor- ney, Jobhnston H. Arbogast, and his nephew, Hugh Schumacher, to Chicaco, and his financial condition was carefuliy examined. Late yesterday he decided to assign for the benefit of his creditors, and a trust deed conveying all his property to Johnston Arbogast and Hugh Schumacher was prepared. This was filed in this city to-day. The property turned over for the benefit of hi ditors consists of $1,000,000 worth of stock in the American Cereal Company, $40,000 worth of stock in the Schumacher Gymnasium Company, the Clarendon Ho- tel and his residence in this city, besides a large amount of real estate in and about Akron. Altogether, the property turned over is estimated at $2,000,000. At the same time the deed in trust was filed a deed in irust by the Schumacher Gymna- sium Company was also filed. The assets of this company are estimated at $40,000, with tie liabilities much in excess. About six years ago Mr. Schumacher founded Harriman, Tenn. He .is a strict prohibitionist, and founded the city on the same principles. The result was he lost nearly $500,000 in the transaction. Twelve years ago he was the candidate on the Prohibition ticket for Governor of Ohio. J. A. Arbogast, one of the assignees, said to-night that if the property is not sold at a forced sale the creditors will realize dol- lar for dollar, but if the property was sold they would lose heavily, as there is no market for it just as present. mortgage was filed by Mr. Schumacher. That was for $35,000 and given to twenty creditors, jointly, who held claims aggre- gating $5500 to $7000 against Schumacher, OTTAWA, IrL, May 9.—Careful investi- gation fails to show a cause for the $1,000,- 000 failure of the Marseilles Land and Water Power Company and the I[llinois River Paper Company at Marseilles, out- side the general break-up of Fred Schu- macher at Arkon, Ohio, he being the prin- ¢ipal owner of both places at Marseilles. His investment in the little city con- sisted of the control of the finest water power plant in the State, the largest straw- board mill in the world, the Crescent mill, a wood pulp mill, an electric light plant and coal mines. Onaccount of the general business depression none of these had prospered the past two years, but his losses in them were not extensive. —_— THE LOI’H_QIANA GOVERNORSHIP, Trouble Anticipated When the Legisla- ture Meets To-Morrow. NEW YORK, N. Y.. May 9.—A Sun special from New Orleans says: A com- mittee consisting of 100 of the leading “usiness men of New Orleans was ap- pointed yesterday to try and arrange a settlement of the gubernatorial troubles and prevent a conflict at the State Capitol when the Legislature meets on Monday or when the vote for Governor is counted on Thuraday. The returns show the re-elec- tion of Foster, Democrat, by a majority of 27,000, but Pharr, the Republican candi- date, asserts that gross frauds have been perpetrated and that he will carry his con- test before the Legisiature and demand an investigation of the vote. T.e Legislature consists of 64 straight Democrats, 17 members of the Citizens’ League, a reform organization of New Or- feans which_ defested the Democracy in that city, 22 Populists and 21 Republicans, showing a Democratic majority of four over all, At one time it looked as if there would be an armed conflict at Baton Rouge, and the militia was ordered to_hold itself in readiness to go to Baton Rouge, but the chances of violence are now considered slight, and both sides seem disposed to leave the matter to the Legislature. The committee of citizens proposes that tie Legislature before counting the yote for Governor shall pass a new election law and call # Constitutional Convention which will limit the suffrage by an educational qualification and order a new election after this has been done. The Republi- cans bave accepted the offer, but Governor Foster will probably refuse. —_— WRANGLE OVER INSTRUCTIONS. Zhe Jackson Murder Case Not ¥et Before the Jury. CINCINNATI, Onro, May 9. — The Jackson case is not yet in the hands of the jury, por Lave the arcuments commenced. It was evidently expected that the jury would receive its instructions from the court to-day, but w!en court opened in the morning Judge Helm was not ready and an adjournment was taken until 2 o'clock. Judge Helm had prepared a series of sixteen instructions to the jury, to several of which Colonel Crawford tookexception. But one | During the noon hour Colonel Crawford had prepared five instructions, which he wished included in the list, but the court excluded them. The whole of the after- noon was taken up in discussing the in- structions, and the only time the jury was brought in was shortly before the evening adjournment, when it was instructed not to discuss the case. Several copies of the instructions had got out among the reporters, which Judge Helm regretted. He said that the copies given out would be modified, and would not be the final instructions given to the jury. A long wrangle between the coart and Colonel Crawford over the instructions consumed the entire afternoon. gasie TON DEAD. CAPTAIN JOH Was the Surviving Kanking Officer of the Confederate Navy.

Agrarian Leaders to Follow Up the Blow at the System. BUSINESS TRANSFERRED Operators Will Desert Berlin for | Quarters at Amsterdam and Antwerp. THE REFORM OF THE MILITARY Civil and Military Cabinets of Em- peror William Are Yet in Opposition. BERLIN, GerMANY, May 9.—The lead- ers of the Agrarian party in the Reichstag have declared their intention to follow up the blow they dealt against the system of trafficking in grain futures by proposing that judgments obtained in other than German courts arising from disputes grow- ing out of time deals in grain shall not be enforced in Germany. As international execution of judgments are regulated by international laws and treaties any mere deliverance of the Reichsiag upon this subject must necessarily remain inopera- tive. The action of the Reichstag in pro- hibiting dealings in futures has led a num- ber ot operators to transfer their grain transactions to Amsterdam and Antwerp. Some dealers say that the prohibition of time deals will not affect business in the least, as they could carry on future deals in Chicago or New York independently of the rules of the Berlin Produce Exchange, and, though such contracts would not be legally binding, the dealers say'they can rely upon the good faith of the contracting parties. Several leading firms, whose heads are members of the Produce Ex- anumber of Hamburg houses to establish grain-trade banks in Antwerp, Amster- dam and Brussels. To counteract this movement Count von Kanitz, the Agrarian leader, has given notice 1n the Reichstag of his intention to ask the Government to negotiate with foreign powers for the con- clusion of treaties prohibiting traffic in grain and produce futures, The Hanover Courier asserts that the It Also Directs the Attorney-General to Foreclose on the Government Liens. WASHINGTON, D. C., May 9.—Senator Pettigrew to-day introduced a joint reso- lution requesting President Cleveland to employ counsel for the purpose of bring- ing suits against the directors and stock- bolders of the Union and Central Pacific railroads who received tne stock of said roads without paying cash for the same; also to recover from the directors, officers and stockholders of said roads such sums of money as were stolen by them or diverted and converted to un- lawful purposes and therefore not placed in the sinking fund as requirea by law, and the President is authorized to pay to the attorneys the sum of 5 per cent | of all sums received from the directors or stockholders. The Attorney-General is also directed to foreclose the mortgage of | the Government on such roads at the ear- liest possible date, and to take steps to pay off the prior incumbrance on said roads |and to use the sinking fund for that pur- pose; to ascertain the amount of money belonging to the Union and Central Pacific railroads that hasbeen invested in branch lines, and the amount of bonds and stock of other companies now the property of | said roads and to take steps to secure the Government's interest therein and to ascertain’ the amount of land now the property of said roads and recover the same or protect the Government in con- nection therewith. For the purpose of carrying out the pro- visions of this resolution the sum of $100,- 000 is to be appropriated. =g PUBLIC DEBT REDEMPTION.

MILWAUKEE, Wis., May 9.—The strike situation is unchanged to-night. More cars were run after 6 o’clock than on any previous evening, and the strikers and their“friends are very quiet. Numerous labor and civic organizations to-night passed resolutions declaring sympatiy witn the strikers. The labor unions and sympathizers with the strikers have ar- ranged a Enrada for to-morrow forenoon at 11 o'clock. Electric lights in the out- lying wards of the city are mnov burning to-night; the strike of the elec- tricians is beginning to tell.

Both the company and the strikers claim to have a'vietory in sight. About the same number of cars are running as vesterday. The popu- lar sympathy for the strikers has increased since the company’s tlat refusal to arbi- trate. The sympathetic strike to be in- augurated on Monday is the talk in labor circles. To-morrow something may de- velop. RE L Test of the Turret, WASHINGTON, D. C., May 9.—The re- sult of the experimental firing to-day at Indian Head proving-grounds against the turret of the Massachusetts was very satis- factory re arding the balance of resistance between the armor and the strength of the turret structure. The prime object of the trial was to determine whether this struc- ture would properly support the armor when it was struck a heavy blow with a projectile from one of the larger guns, Prince Hohenlohe, will end with the close of the present session of the Reichstag, but the semi-official press, on the contrary, declares that a ministerial crisis has been averted and that Prince Hohenlohe will | remain in power as long as his health per- mits. General Bronsart von Schellendorf, Im- perial Minister of War, has succeeded in obtaining the Emperor's assent to the | scheme for the reform of the military tri- | bunals and also certain reforms in the | army organization which have long been opposed by the Emperor's military cabi- net. The Chancellor and the Minister of ‘War will continue their struggle against the influence of General von Hahnke, the | chief of the Emperor’s military cabinet, | and Dr. von Lucanus, chief of the Kaiser’s civil cabinet, and if they should be suc- | cessful it ought to lead to a change in the | personnel of both the military and civil | cabinets. | Another Colonial Office scandal is excit- | ing political and official circles. Baron | von Wissmann, the Governor of German | East Africa, who sailed from Zanzibar last | Thursday on his way home, does not in- tend to return to his post, and as a matter | of fact threatens to leave the imperial service. He has had a quarrel with the au- | thorities of the Colonial Office over the ap- | pointment to his staff of a certain Herr von Eitz, who was associated with the re- cent accusations made against Dr. Carl Peters, the explorer, Eugene Wolff, the explorer, in an ar- ticle in the Berlin Tageblatt, makes a sharp attack upon the Colonial Office au- thorities for their action in sending Lieu- tenant Werther on a mission to East Af- rica to explore a supposed region of gold reefs. in 1893 Herr Wolff directed the attention of the Colonial Office to Werther’s conduct, | abuse of power and exactions while he was at the head of a geological research expe- dition in Africa. Tbe Colonial Office | authorities in respect to this asked Wolff to keep silent about the matter and assured him that Werther would never again be similarly engaged by the Colonial Office. Herr Woiff now protests against Werther's second mission and declares that there is no gold in the regions which bhe has gone to explore. The whole matter, Herr Wolff maintains, is a job. The blindness of the Grand Duke of Mecklenburg-Strelitz led him into a dan- gerous predicament last Wednesday while on his way to the horse fair at New Bran- denburg. As he was being led across a railroad track his foot became caught in the rails snd could not be extricated. The consequence was that he was forced to remain standing for some time in the middle of the line, over which there was a very large traffic, owing to the horse fair, and the trains had to be brought to a stand still by the signalmen until the Grand Duke’s foot was finally released by its being forced out of his boot. The Empress on the occasion of the | birthday of Crown Prince William, who was 14 years old last Wednesday, paid a visit to the Crown Prince and his brother, Prince Eitel Frederick, at Ploen, where they are at school, returning to Berlin ‘Wednesday evening. Last evening the Emperor and Empress gave a dinner to the chiefs of the German Red Cross Society in commemoration of the twenty-fifth anniversary of the founda- tion of the society and were afterward present at a gala opera performance in honor of the occasion. To-day the Em- peror and Empress started for Frankfort and will visit the International Flower Exhibition at Dresden en route. Major-General A. McD.

The women are daily gaining support- ers. To-day a larze number of delegates who had previously voted against the con- stitutional amendment giving the women admission to the conference, changed their votes and voted aye. The change was greeted with applause. Ex-Senator Harlan of Towa introduced a resolution amending the second restrictive rule, giving the laymen egual representa- tion with the ministers in the general con- ference. Mr. Harlan said: “The laymen have had a meeting and we have come to the conclusion that the time has come when the laymen should receive justice by this body.” We want numerical equality in this body unless the ministers should give us some good reason why we should not.” On motion it was referred to the com- mittee on lay representation.
