CHICAGO, InL, April 5—The Globe Savings Bank dia not open its doors this morning. Later the Chicago Title and Trust Company was appointed receiver. The capital stock of the bank is $200,000. A few days ago an assessment of 50 per cent on its capital stock was made, and it is supposed the tardy response on the part of the stockholders is the causs of the failure. Mr. Churchill in sn interview said: he assessment was made by order of the State Bank aminer, who thought that some of our assets were not very good. He objected to items amounting to $103,324 and ordered this amount charged up to profit and loss, and an as- sessment of $100,000 made to cover the de- ficiency. “According to our last statement our as- tets are over $730,000 and our liabuilities about $640,000, and consist of our capital stock of §200,000 paid in; savings deposits, 000; checking deposits, $125,000. 1ece is no doubt of our ability to pay in full, butit may take some time. “The Globe safety deposit vaults which were operated by the bank are notaffected in any way by the suspension. The Globe Savings Bank was organized in 1891, with Eastern capital, most of it held in Nashua, N. H. Charles W. Spalding has been the president of the institution since it started.” Cashier Churchill added: “I do not see how we can resume. Our loans in round numbers are $350,000; about 75 per cent secured on real estate, $72,000 in stocks and bonds and $57,000 in realty foreclosed on. The deposits are about $400,000. Ido not think the depositors will lose any- thing. We had $32,000 cash on band when we closed Saturday.” President C. W. Shaldine is a trustee of Dartmouth College and holds 500 shares. He came to the bank’s assistance with a $25,000 donation in the recent flurry and is prostrated by the failure. Most of the Eastern stockhoiders are residents of Nastua and Manchester, N. H. The Nashua Savings Bank holds 200 shares and Keene's Five-cent Savings Bauk of Keene, N. H., 100 shures. Ihe Chicago and Alfon.

Maybury (Dem.) to- day defeated Captain Alvert C. Merritt (Rep.) for Mayor by a plurality of about 900. Last November Detroit gave a Re- publican majority of 10,000.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, April 5—Owen Zeigler and Charley McKeever of this city tor Perkins has presented to Secretary of the Treasury Gage a letter from T. G, Phelps, former Collector of Customs at Ban Francisco, exonerating C. M. Leavy, former appraiser ot that porr, from the charges made by Collector Phelps, unon which Leavy was removed {rom office dur- ing the administration of President Har- rison. The ex-Collector writes that he'is now convinced that Appraiser Leavy was inno- cent of the accusation he then brought against him of favoring certain importers who ware detected in deirauding the rev- enue. Secretary Gage has as yet taken no action toward clearing the record, but the probability is that Leavy will be acquitted of any knowlédge or participation in the frauds. The ambition of Frank Coombs of Cali- fornia to be Minister to Japan was blasted to-day when Buck of Georgia ap- pointed to this post. The California dele- gation indorsed Coombs for this mission, but it is the policy of the administration not to reappoint those who formerly held office. This rule will be adhered to, witn occasional exceptions. Representative Barham will to-morrow submit to President McKinley the follow- ing names for appointment to Federal po- eitions in California: Sterling A. Campbell, as Collector at Eureka; T. A.

The engine and fifteen cars fell into the street below, completely blocking the thoroughfare. The trestle broke under the engine, which went down first, and the cars came down on top of it, 8o great was the mass of failen cars and timbers from the bridge tbat considerable time elapsed before it could be found what loss of life had actually occurred. When the engine was finally reached the engineer was found to be alive, but was terribly crushed and wili probably die. The fireman was lying under the wreckage and was dead when taken out. Five other men riding on the train were very badly hurt, but will probabiy recover. The cause of the zccident is not yet known, but a rigid examination into it will be beld. The trestle that gave way to-day had irequently held much heavier trains and was supposea to be perfectly safe. AR, DECREE OF FORECLOSURE.

Petrie, 8 lawyer of Marietta, has discounted law- yers of Chicago in securing diveroes with secrecy and dispatch. He began to prac- tice only about a year ago. . The trial of a case in ths Cobb Superior Court last week developed a curious state of affairs. Joe Robertson was indicted, tried ana convicted of living with Georgia Lester, contrary to law. He contended that he had been divorced from his first wife and was lawfully married 10 his sec- ond. A paper was exhibited in court pur. vort ing to be a divorce granted Robertson atthe November term, the jury verdict signed by Asker Dobbs, foreman, and the decree signed by George F.

BOSTON, Mass., April 5.—The battle- ship Iowa was givena preliminary run to-day over the Cape Aun course, where she will have her final tral spin on Wednesday. The trial as far as it went was thor- oughly successful. The Iowa was sent over the first half of the course after she | had done eome “jockeying’ to warm up her engines. Ehe accomplished the thirty- ‘V three miles in the remarkably good time of one hour and fifty-five minutes and | tweuty-one seconds, or at the rate of 17.16 knots an hour. The conditions under which this was accomplished were not the most iavorable, for, while the sea was as smooth as could be wished, the wind was directly aft, about the worsi direction it could blow from to insure a good draught. After the first leg of the return journey bad been covered at a rattling pace the vessel ran into a dense fog bank and speed had to be reduced. i gty AUGUST BELMONI’S FISIT. It Wil Reswlt in imcreasing Racing Harmony in the West. NEW YORK, N. Y., April 5.—August | Belmont of the Jockey Ciub, just re- turnea from his Western trip, said: “While in the West I had pleasant inter- { views with gentiemen connected in rac- | ing, and, like myself, desirous that there | should be re-establishment of the recipro- cal relations between the governing turl bodies of the East and West. It was natural the object should be discussed, but it was only in en informal manuer. *‘I betieve thav an arrangement satisfac- tory to all is a matter of but litile time and of an exchauge of sentiment. Asa matter of fact there has been at no time any straining of relations between the Jockey Club and the American Turf Con- gress of the character generally assumed— that is, there has been no attack of one body upon the other. “1 am sure the Jockey Club in no ruling it made sought to discriminate against | the governing body in the West, and the | Jockey Ciub has been at all times free 10 concede that it had no idea that the rules adopted by the Turf Congress were any other than, in the opinion of that body, expedient for the government or neces- sary for racing in the territory in its juris- diction.” —_—— AMNIE BESANT SPEAKS, Addresses Many Theosophists al York and Brooklyn.

Lincoln, aged 93, died in Bristol, R. L, to-aay safter fasting forty-eight days. The case is considered a most remarkable one. She was in very good physical condition and was brightand cheerful until s1x weeks ago, when attacked with the final illness which caused her to declare against any more food. Physicians from all over New England have puzzled over the case for weeks, at- tempting every known means 10 get sus- tenance into her system, but her strange disease baffled science. While conscious of ail that was going on abou: her, Mrs. Lincoln said she did not care for anything more to eat. She was determined and actually starved to death in the midst of plenty. She slept a great deal during her illness, which was somewhat refreshing to her, but her ereat constitution was undermined more and | more each day asshe went without food. This is not only one of the longest fasts on record, but it is the only case where a | person anywhere near her great age ever livea for any length of time under such remarkable circumstances. She was very vatient and seldom complained. She had no crganic disease whatever. Mrs. Lincoln was widely known in Bristol and highly respected. She leaves three sisters, all advanced in years. A brother, William Lindsey, died only six | weeks ago after he had just called on his sister, Mrs. Lincoln, and arranged for her funeral. Sne wasone of a family of ten RELIEF FOR FLOOD SUFFERERS.
