FELTON ON HIS METTLE.
he gives col. livingston the
lie direct
The Doctor’s Ire Excited by the Alli
ance Leader's Assertion That He Was
Hired by the Jeffersonian Democracy
to Run for Congress—The Alliance
Severely Denounced.
ATLANTA, Ga.. Nov. 6.—Yesterday, in
his speech on the sub-treasury bill in reply
to Congressman Oates, CoL Livingston took
occasion to resurrect some of the gall of the
recent congressional campaign in the Bev- j
enth district as well as in his own, the |
Fifth. Congressman Livingston charged |
that Dr. Felton had been “hired to run
against Col. Everett.’’ This afternoon I)r.
Felton is quoted in the Journal as givicg
CoL Livingston the lie direct on this point.
THE DOCTOR’S LANGUAGE.
Says Dr. Feltou in the interview:
“Say to CoL Livingston that if he says I
was hired by the Jeffersonian democracy of
the Seventh district to make the race for
congress last fail be is unqualifiedly a liar.
I was nominated unsolicited on my part
and over my repeated written and verbal
protests. My letters to Col. Nevin and to
Col. J. L. Camp and a multitude of others
will testify to the truth of this matter. I
became a candidate to save the people of
this country, so far as in me lay, from the
wreck aud ruin that ignorance and com
munism was threatening with this third
party.
A DANGEROUS ORGANIZATION.
“1 regard this third party, or political
farmers’ alliauce, tbe most dangerous politi
cal organisation with its secret grips and
signs, and its proclivities to plunder all
other classes, with its sub-treasury scheme
as embodied in its Ocala platform, that
ever threatened the public liberties of tbe
America i-eople. 1 was invited to make a
speech at the Piedmont exposition, but I
fortunately declined to be brought in con
tract with such men as Livingston and
Maocuue and other men, who seek to
mauipulate a mass of ignoranoe tor their
1-own selfish aud corrupt purposes.”

superior court, which has been in session
since Monday, adjourned to day till next
Monday. But little business of importance
was transacted.

the penitentiary for life for killing Ed
Davis, another negro, about three months
ago.
Mike Baum and Sam S. Bonnet, both
very bright young men, were admitted to
the t>ar after passing a most creditable ex
amination.
A flutter of excitement was created one
day by the announcement that the famous
Arrington-Lane case would come to trial,
but on account of the inability of an im
portant witness to be present it was con
tinued for the term. The general opinion is
that this case will now never come to trial
again.

THE MORNING NEWS: SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 1891.
DUN’S REVIEW OF TRADE.
A SLIGHT INCREASE .J* THE NUM
BER OF FAILURES.
The Collapse of the Maverick Bank
the Feature of the Week-Money
Temporarily Scarcer at New York
cn Account of Withdrawals by
Boston—Crops Moving Freely and
the Outlook Good.
New York, Nov. 6. —The business fail
ures occurring throughout the country
during the last seven days, as reported to
R. G. Dun & Cow, number for tbe United
States 223, and for Canada 43, or 266, com
pared with 255 last week, and 249 the week
previous. For the corresponding week last
year the figures were 215.
The failure of a widely known bank at
Boston was the striking event of the week
hue has caused astonishment rather than
disturbance. The withdrawals of money
from this point to fortify Boston have
caused higher rates, 6 per cent, here against
3 a week ago, but supplies continue to oome
steadily from Europe.
ENGLAND’S INTEREST RATE.
The Bank of England does not change its
rates, though losing gold largely, and the
official treasury report shows an addition of
$33,000,000 to the actual circulation of all
kinds in October. Crops are moving freely,
so that it seems scarcely possible that any
important monetary disturbance should
■arise at present. It is also a
reassuring fact to eastern capitalists
and investors that the western elections
have ri suited in the complete defeat of those
who advocated wild financial schemes, so
that tbsir power in the next session of con
gress is likely to he much diminished.
BUSINESS HEALTHY.
Reports from all parts of the country
show that business, though interrupted
somewhat by tho elections, has been healthy
and large in volume. At Boston the failure
of (be Maverick bank caused some un
easiness, but business continues steady
and healthy, no lack of confidence
is -se i and money is easy. The only cities
reportings monetary pressure are Omaha
and Savannah.
Tbe iron industry, in spite of the lowest
prices over known for some products, shows
no despondency, and the demand for manu
factured iron and steel does not diminish.
THE DRY GOODS TRADE.
The trade in dry goods looks little better.
Spring woolens are lu rather more demand,
the dress goods season is fairly satisfactory,
and agents have begun to snow overcoat
ings with fair results. The recent decision
as to worsteds opens the way to largely
Increased imports.
The tradn in cottons is not just now equal
to last year’s, but for the whole season
thus far it has been considerably larger.
SPECULATION IN BREADSTUFFS.
Speculation has lifted wheat l%c, though
the western receipts continued enormous.
The exports for the week thus far are about
equal to those of recent weeks. Cora has
declined b a o, with somewhat in
creased receipts at the west,
and cotton ' ~c, with very heavy
receipts at the southern ports. Oil, pork
p oduets and bogs are some what lower,
but coffee is higher. The general
average of prices is a shade lower for the
week, and the markets are less embarrassed
than usual by cliques maintaining artificial
prices.
• LABOR WELL EMPLOYED.
Tu the main labor is well employed, with
few controversies about wages. Stocks
have been weak on account of tho failure
at Boi on and some selling by foreigners,
but show a little better tone at the close.
The treasury continues to add new notes
to the circulation in exchange for silver
purchased, but the pnoe of silver bullion
has dropped to per ounce.
Throughout the country collections seem
to be fuir for t e season, anil on tbe whole
gradually improving.
DISTILLERS ASSIGN.
Other Failures and Indorsements Em
barrassed tho Firm.
Louisville, Kt., Nov. 6.—The Cochrane
Fulton Company, dmillers and wholesale
liquor dealers, made an assignment to-day
to the Louisville Trust Company. The
liabilities and assets cannot be learned
within a satisfactory approximation,
but are supposed to be about equal,
and to reach near $500,000. The
commercial rating of the company is $5 | )0,-
000. Givan Cochrane is president and
Edward Fulton Is vice president. Both
made individual assignments. Both retimed
to talk. Their assets consist of the big
Spring Hill distillery at Frankfort, a large
amount of fine whisky, stock in railroads
and real e-tate. Considerable of Mr. Coch
rane’s real estate is held in trust for his
children.
an old firm.
The firm is one of the oldest, and has been
regarded as one of the staunchest here. Mr.
Cocbraue has for twenty years been a mem
ber of the school board, for several years
president, aud always a leader of the best
element in the board. The failure was
brought about by the recent failures of Jacob
Kreiger and the Masonic Savings Bank
and of the R. B. Cotter Lumber Company.
Mr. Fulton was interested with Mr. Kreiger
in the Shelby railroad aDd in much real
estate here, and the Cochrane Fulton Com
pauv was an indorser for the Cotter com
pany for 460,000. The first of this paper,
a small amount, matured yesterday, and
the prospect of being called on to meet the
rest forced the assignment. Friends of the
company claim that they will be able to
pay in full.
A RUN ON A BANK IN TEXAS.
Confidence Restored After $60,000
Had Been Drawn Out.
Galveston, Tex., Nov. 6.— The fact
that Albert Weis of Weis Bros., who failed
yesterday, was president of the Island City
Savings Bank caused a ran on that institu
tion to-day by small depositors. About
160,000 was withdrawn and 480,000 depos
ited. The directors held a meeting nt 12
o’clock to-day and decided to porsonally
guarantee every dollar of the deposits, and
declared the bank to bo perfectly solvent.
Confidence Is entirely restored to-night.
FORTUNE AWARDED $826.
Trainor's Refusal to Fell Him a Drink
Comes Htgb.
New York, Nov. 6.— The action of
Thomas Fortune, the colored editor of the
New York Aye, to recover from
James Trainor, proprietor of a Sixth
avenue saloon and hotel, SIO,OOO damages
for assault, wes concluded to-day in the su
preme court. Fortune was refused a drink,
it was alleged, because of his color, and was
assaulted. The jury gave a verdict for >825
iu favor of the plaintiff. An allowance of
5 per cent, was given his counsel.
lowa to Drink Again.
Chicago, Nov.—A special from Sioux
City, la., says; “Asa result of the demo
cratic victory in lowa nnd hope that the
prohibition law will soon lie repealed, the
Union Stock Compauy in this city lias an
nounced that it will soon begin the con
struction of a large brewery here. It is
also asserted that two breweries which have
been idle for several years will be started
up."
Tlie Motz Brother.* Acquitted.
Charlotte, N. C., Nov. 6.— After ten
days trial the Motz brothers were this even
ing found not guilty of the murder of Sam
Motz. The case, from its pathetic charac
ter aid complicated situations, has excited
the greatest interest. Tho verdict was ap
plauded by the whole population of Shelby,
where the case was tried, nd the defend
ants received an ovation.
RUIN OF THE MAVERICK.
Directors Suspected of Indorsing Fic
titious Notes.
Boston, Mas#., Nov. 6.—Tho affairs of
the Maverick bank are being straightened
out as fast as possible under the circum
stances. Matten, cannot be completely un
tangled until the receiver qualifies aud
assumes his duties and until the loans, assets
and claims are classified and scheduled.
Examiner Ewer is accumulating mensy
for checks received since the bank’s
suspension, and it :s expected that this will
he iucreased when tbe receiver takes charge.
The money in the bans at time of closing its
doors has been overestimated. Tbe gold
aud legal tenders amounted to $1,000,000;
the miscellaneous funds to $159,000 and ex
changes for clearicg $300,000, or a total of
nearly $1,500,000. There was very little
money in New York iu the bank’s account.
LOANS ON FICTITIOUS NOTES.
District Attorney Allen In an argument
before Judge Nelson t>day on the question
of bail for the Maverick bank officers said
he had received a statement from Ex
aminer Ewer that Messrs. Potter, French
and Dana owed the Maverick over $2,500,-
POO. He farther stated that the examiner
■aid that among ins asssts of the bank were
found notes indorsed by the three accused
directors, the pr missories of which could
not be found, and whom he believed did not
exist. The bail of French bas been reduced
to $69,000, and John Stetson went on his
bond, French being released.
CONTROLLER LACEY’S ACTION.
Controller Lacey, who arrived here to
day, sail: “The Maverick National Bank
was closed by my orders upon information
from Mr. Ewer that the bank was insolv
ent, supported by an Investigation of the
members of the clearing bouse committee.
The report that, six months ago
I advised the bank president
to withhold any report on the Maverick
bank in the hope that the bank might re
cover, is without foundation. The bank
alluded to as bav:ng been in bad coudition
tnree or four mouths ago and which has
sines pulled through, is not a Boston bank.”
LACEY’S EXAMINATION.
Controller of the Currenoy Lacey, who
arrived from Washington this morning,
has spent nearly the entire day at the Mav
erick bank or in consultation with Bank
Examiner Ewar aud the local bank officers.
In an interview this evening he said: "The
feeling all along the line and
among the members of the Boston
clearing house committee is that
the affairs of the Maverick 'bank are in
very much better condition than is appar
ently generally supposed. One of the lead
ing financiers of Boston told tpe to-day that
he thought the indebtedness of the bank
would be redeemed at par. There is not
one of the gentlemen who are in a position
to know about the affairs of the bank, but
admits that it will pay 85 per cent.”
TENNESSEE'S MINERS.
A Bl* Strike Imminent If Check
Welshmen Are Not Put On.
Nashville, Tknn., Nov. 6.—The miners
in the Coal Creek district are still in a fer
ment. The releasing of the convict* does
not seem to have satisfied them, and unless
othor demands made by them are conceded
by the operators i big strike may occur.
Yesterday the men employed in the Trostle
mine, whiob is operated by the East Ten
nessee Mining Company, demanded check
weighmeu. Iu their demand they

ville. The men tdere yesterday demaaded
a check weighman also and gave the com
pany until MomUy to aot. If he is not put
on they will strife Monday.
A COAL FAMINE iT CdICAGO.
The Strike of tha Minfls Leaves
River Craft Without Fuel.
Chicago, Nov. 6.—There is a coal famine
at the Chicago coal docks, where steamers
and tugs are supplied, caused by
the strikes in the Pittsburg and Indiana
block coal fields. Every available ton of
fuel has been exhausted at South Chicago,
and tne stocks have become so low that
steamers are using anything they can get.
O. 8. Richardson & Cos. had 890 cars at
Cleveland, which they intended to ship im
mediately, In order to relieve the famine
here, hut yesterday tbe firm found that tbe
railroad company had confiscated the entire

extends to all manufacturing establishments
heretofore using Pittsburg and Indiana
block coal.

Representatives of all the Indiana block
ooal ininiws had notice to-day of an ad
vance in coal freight rates from Brazil,
Ind., to Chicago of 10 cents per ton, to

tofore existed shall be restored, nor until
the miners comply with the contract en
tered into May 14 last.

Them.
Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 6. —Col L. F.
Livingston is nothing if not ambi
tious. His latest avowed aspiration is
to the presidency of the National Farmers’
Alliance. CoL Livingston wants to succeed
CoL L L. Polk, the present high prophet of
the alliance. He has been nursing this am
bitious hope quietly for some time, ami it is

reason to believe that Col. Polk and CoL

LOOKING FOR A LETTER.
It is known that they have corresponded
on the subjeot, and to-day CoL Livingston

settle it in answer to one which he had just
mailed. Col. Polk’s successor will be
elected on Nov. 17, when tbe national con
vention of the alliance meets in Indianapo
lis. On Nov. 13 the various state presi
dents will meet there fora preliminary cau
cus. CoL Livingston will, of oourse," be on
hand. He will leave for Indianapolis on
Nov. 12.
ADMITS THAT HE WANTS IT.
He sud this aftoraoon in speaking of his
candidacy for the national alliance presi
dency, while waiting in the depot for the
Georgia road train to pull out: “Yee. 1
would aoeept the position if I should be
elected by anything like an unanimous
vote.” He was asked if he was a candidate:
"Wait until Monday and 1 will tell you
about it. I have just written a letter to
Col. Polk and will have his answer then.”
When asked if he would antagonize Pres
ident Polk ia an election CoL Livingston
■aid there was not much danger of that.
The inference is that CoL Polk will come
down in Col. Livingston’s favor, and “our
son” will have a walk-over.
NO ROOM FOR DOUBT.
There is lo doubt about Col. Livingston
having his eye on the presidency of the alli
ance, and as he and CoL Polk are vorv thick
the chaucei ore that it is ail fixed tietween
them. After the colonel succeeds President
Polk at the election of Nov. 17, he may next
tender his services to the alliance or third
party, to make a triangular campaign on
the Ooaia platform in 1892. Has “our
son” got hit sight set on the white house!

Dyspepsia
Makes the lives of many people miserable,
causing distress after eating, sour stomach,
sick headache, heartburn, loss of appetite,
a faint, “all gone” feeling, bad taste, coated
nktroGc tonsue ' and irregularity of
UI9UUB9 the bowels. Dyspepsia does
After not B et well of itself. It
P„.. „ requires careful attention,
bating an( j a remedy like Hood's
Sarsaparilla, which acts gently, yet efficiently.
It tones the stomach, regulates tho diges
tion, creates a good ap- Ciolt
petite, banishes headache,
and refreshes the mind. HeauaCn©
“ I have been troubled with dyspepsia. I
had but little appetite, and what I did eat
distressed me, or did me
$ arl liMle good. After eating I
wUrn would have a faint or tired,
all-gone feeling, as though I had not eaten
anything. My trouble was aggravated by
my business, painting. Last Sour
spring I took Hood’s Bar- " our
saparllla, which did me an StOmaCrl
immense amount of good. It gave me an
appetite, and my food relished aud satisfied
the craving I had previously experienced.”
