The banks are now paying out cash freely. The Richmond, Ya., local optionists won in Tuesday’s election by 142 ma¬ jority, in a total vote of 3)509, there- by carrying the city against licensing ell Manufacturing company at Lowell, Mass., started up Tuesday. The cot- ton department of the Hamilton mill also started and the print works will start in a few pays. Advices of Tuesday from Moscow, Russia, say that thirty-five students eight professors and'five women of rank have been arrested there on sus- picion that they were implicated in a nihilist plot against the czar’s life. Five car loads of negroes passed through Kansas Memphis, Tuesday, on the ham City, Memphis and Birming¬ railroad, making 1,200 in all. I hey came from around Birmingham and were destined for the mines in Kansas. Monday the National Tube Works Company, at McKeesport, Pa., re¬ sumed operations in another puddling department, comprising twenty-two furnaces, and Tuesday morning the continuous rolls of the finishing de- partment resumed. ° Leidy & Co., retail hats, and one of the oldest firms in Memphis, Tenn., made an assignment Tuesday. Liabili- ties, $31,185; assets nominally, $12,- 000. W. Ij. Cooper is the assignee. The creditors are principally New York hat houses. ' Two .Memento were made i„ Nashville, Tenn., Tuesday. Cohen, Collier A Co., wholesale clothing and notion dealers, failed for $55,000; as- who sets nominally the same. S. Mason, is attorney also failed owing- $30,000; n assets $23,000. A boiler connected with A1 Brun- field’s grist mill, at Hart’s Creek, in Lincoln county, V... exploded T„<*- day morning. John H.

The American National bank , lt Nashville, Tenn., re-opened its doors Tuesday after being closed nearly four weeks. Only $7,0U0 was w ithdrawn, w hile the deposits amounted to $360 000. Tlie First National will also open on Monday and has promises of support. Both of these banks were absolutely sound, but closed because of a threatened run. The free bridge commissioners Tuesday rejected all bids received for the building of the free bridge across the Arkansas river at Little Rock, the bids being considered excessive. The lowest bid was $545,000. This prac¬ tically defeats the free bridge question in that city for some time to come. It lias been a bone of contention be¬ tween prominent rival factions for several years past. A Nashville special of Tuesday says: J. J. Pryor, assignee of the Mechanics’ bank, has brought suit to collect the life insurance ou three policies trans¬ ferred by the late defaulting cashier, John Seharat. The suits are against the Pennsylvania Mutual and Phila¬ delphia for $12,500; the United States of New York for $20,000 and the Mu¬ tual, of New York, for $30,000. Innumerable dispatches received at Washington indicate that a general re¬ sumption of business in the manufact¬ uring plants in the north and west has begun or is in preparation. This is particularly marked in the cotton fac¬ tory section of New England and iron working plants in Pennsylvania and Ohio, also in the miscellaneous indus¬ tries of Philadelphia and New York. State Comptroller James A. Harris . and Captain Keller Anderson met in consultation at Knoxville, Tenn.. Tuesday regarding the funds necessa¬ ry to remove the standing army from Coal Creek. Everything is now in readiness and it is understood that the move will be made in a few days. There seems to be no fear of further trouble, though no one can tell what a day may bring forth. A Houston, Tex., despatch of Tues¬ day says: A reduction in force has just pone into effect aloner the Southern Pacific from El Paso to N ew Orleans. The reason is that there is very little business being done and a smaller force is competent to handle it. The reduction effect a large number of men. however, and is applicable, for the most part, to telegraph operators and men doing clerical work in the general office. The republicans, who are prohibi- tionists, the most important political question before the people of Iowa, held a state convention at Des Moines, Tnesdav, and parted companv with the regular republican organization TOCCOA GEORGIA, FRIDAY.

Cohen, Collier A Co., of Nashville, Tenn., wholesale dealers in dry goods a,lt l notions, made a special assignment Monday afternoon for the benefit of their creditors. The liabilities are about fifty-five thousand dollars. The assets are not stated, but are large enough to pay all debts, unless a sher¬ iff’s sale is enforced. The largest amount is due H. B. Claflin & Co., New York, being $25,352 in notes and open accounts. A Jacksonville special says: There is no yellow fever in Florida. The state has a clean bill of health. A dis- patch received from State Health Offi¬ cer Porter at the state health office Sunday states that the sickness of Newmann, at Port Tampa, announced , on the 29th as yellow fever, is not yellow fever, as a subsequent diagnosis shows. He has since declared all re¬ strictions off and the people may go to Port Tampa and come as they please. A disiiatch from Rome, Ga., says: j Chester Scott, the noted train robbei and desperado aud convicted of mur¬ dering Sheriff McGinnis, of Gordon county, along with five other prison¬ ers in the Floyd eounty jail, escaped Saturday night shortly aftei^T o’clock. | The escape was most daring Jailer Copeland was knocked down, his wife . and mother were run over and with crowded streets within a few feet all ma t | e good their escape, Several deputy sheriffs of Birming¬ ham, Ala., with a number of blood¬ hounds, arrived in Clarke county Sat- urday night, where they went on a telegraphic call from the sheriff of that county. They say they have found the trail of the Meachain gang of outlaws. The sheriff of that coun¬ ty anticipates serious trouble in cap¬ turing them, and has called for depu¬ ties from a number of counties. It was given out a few days ago that the gang had made their escape and left the state, but the renort was untrue. QUIET AT COAL CREEK.
