It Is Allrxrd That Henderson Hn t’ned 97,000 of the Southern Home Building and 1/oan Association Knndi and Is Insolvent Stock holders of the Association Ask the Court to lleniove Him for These and Other Reasons. Atlanta. May 36—A sensational bill has been filed against W. H. Henderson, for merly secretary and manager of the Southern Home Building and Loan Asso ciation. and co-receiver of the company v. Ith Judge J. T. Pendleton, to have him i moved from the receivership. It Is alleged In the bill that Henderson, while manager, made loans to himself, amounting to some $7,0'0, of "which not a part of the principal and interest has been pall. It is charged that he Is a man of Intemperate and profligate habits and spends money far in excess of his means, and is an improper person to handle the funds for the association. It is also al leged that he Is wholly insolvent. Another ground on which Mr. Hender son's removal Is sought is that as receiv er It will be his duty to sue himself for money he owes the association. The petition states that the American Bonding and Trust Company, security on Mr. Henderson’s bond, has given him no tice that It will no longer be liable on, his bond, and If not relieved by his giving other security, will apply to the court for relief. The appointment of an expert bookkeeper Is asked to examine Into the affairs of the association prior to the re ceivership and subsequent. Judge New man has set the case for a hearing on. June 9. The petition was filed In liehaif of O. H. Crittenden of Texarkana, Tex., and G. W. Partin of Parsons, Tenn., by their attorneys, Malcolm, Johnston and West moreland Bros. SCIENTISTS AT WASHINGTON. They Find n Slight Error In the Longitude of the Place. Washington, Ga., May 26.—Prof. Pick ering of Harvard University lectured on the eclipse on Friday at the auditorium of the public school building. Besides the school, quite n large crowd was out to hear him. He said they had found, after coming here, in ascertaining the ex act longitude, that the maps were a lit tle wrong; that they thought the eclipse Would last eighty-eight seconds, Instead of eighty-five, ns Washington was Just five miles north of the. line of totality, but the difference was so slight It would not matter. Prof. Pickering will go next year to Borneo to observe a total eclipse which last six minutes. The scientists have been much enter tained while here, and their stay has been very pleasant. They have been entertained by the Frank Willis Literary Club, and It Is proposed to give them an old-fashioned Georgia barbecue. They admire our ancient Court House very much, and say that If It were In Bos ton It would be most carefully preserved. Representatives from St. Louis Univers ity. from Creighton University of Omaha, Neb., and from Xavier College, Cincin nati. have lately arrived here. Owing to the death of Father O’Brien, which cast gloom over all the institu tions under his charge, It has been de cided to have no public commencement at Sr Joseph's Academy this year. There will be private exercises attended only hv the parents, relatives and a few Invited friends. The school will close on the 20tli of June. So great interest was taken in the knitting mill that the superintendent was compelled to request the discontinuance o r visitors until the operatives should be come more accustomed to their work.
