Atlanta, Nov. 23.—The courts have
been appealed lo for receivers fer two of
the leading business films in this city.
William Laird, one cf the leading re
tail grocers of this city, has been forced
to the wall by a pressure of claims and
a lack of funds to liquidate. Mr. Laird
is a member oi the board of police com
missioners, and one of tlio leading spirits
in Atlanta enterprise.
Mr. Laird is out in a lengthy card set
ting forth the cause of Ills failure as the
hard tiuies which have prevailed fer the
past six months, and the refusal of banks
to discount his customers’ paper as in
former times, when money was easier.

The application ior a receiver for Mil

the firm was thought to bo doing a fine
business. The petition alleges that Mil

THE STRIKE SPREADS
the char
the trial of the ui- j
•sellers devoted por
tions Sunday evening to
ruled to show th-t the
mayor was unfit morally to hold his po
sition. It was plainly said by the minis
ters of the gospel that the mayor should
be made to resign and leave town. It
was asserted that lie was a disgrace to
South Norwalk. The denunciations were
applauded.
The Rev. Mr. Barnes, of the Motho-
dist Society, preacliod from a text foun
ded on the Seventh Commandment. Ho
said that a worse example for young men
to follow would bo hard to find. He
added that the evidence submitted by
the counsel of tho mayor’s wife in her
suit for divorce was simply shameful.
By it ho justly divorced himself from all
claims to tho respect of tho citizens of
South Norwalk.
Rev. Gerald H. Beard, of the Congre
gational church, took for his subject
‘•Tho Purity of Our City’s Homes.*’ Ho
presented in a clear, refined manner tho
story of the misdoing of tho mayor, and
made a strong plea for morality in
politics.
When the eloquent young divine had
finished, Charles E. Jennings, a New
York banker, whose borne in in Norwalk,
arose and said that he was glad that one
man at least in tho town was not afraid
to express himself plainly. He asked
Mr. Beard to call a meeting of the men
present to bo held in the parish room to
take a vote on tho question of requesting
Mayor Lockwood’s resignation.
TTio meeting was held. The resigna
tion was requested.
Mayor Lockwood forwarded his resig
nation to the board of councilmcn the
next day, and at a meeting held at night
it was promptly accepted. Lockwood
has gone sonth.

Politics Take a Back Seat for the N'oni
and ths War Horses of All Parties
Joiu in tlio Grauvl IV-stlvl-
Blooiungton, Ill., Nov. 23.—One of
tlio most interesting, significant and
unique weddings which ever occurred
in Illinois, was solemnized Tuesday
night, the parties being Mr. Lewis
Green Stevenson, the only sou of Vico
President Stevenson, and Miss Helen
j Louise Davis, the elder daughter of Mr.
William O. Davis, a prominent citizen
of Bloomington.
The most 'interesting feature of the
event is that Mr. Davis is the editor and
owner of the Daily Pantograph, a radi
cal republican newspaper, which has for
quarter of a century opposed Mr. Ste
venson and his party with all its might
id influence. There never was a move
striking example of tho saying that there
politics in love. Tho bride and
groom havo been friends from childhood
and the wedding was prophesied a year
ago. Both of the young psoplo are na
tives of Bloomington, and no two of the
city's inhabitants are more highly es
teemed than they.
No tiling marred tho perfection of the
plans for this brilliant event save tho
weather. Ideal Indian summer of Mon
day was succeeded by a blinding storm,
which whitened tho streets and later
filled tllem with slush. Tho city was
filthy, and tho carriage wheels threw
mud in all directions as tho guests wend
ed their way to tlio church. This was
tho second wedding in Bloomington ot‘
vice presidential interest and the second
of that nature of which tho name of
Dav:- md figured. Three years ago
Mir; . co Davis, cf this city, grand-
dau^ r of David Davis, former acting
vice president of tho United States, was
married here to Dr. E. Wyllys Andrews,
of Chicago. The bride of that event and
the brio f >day are not related.
Th:.- . .ig brought together a com
pany su;,...-r in its make up from a po
litical point of view. Old war horses
of Democracy and heroes of many a Re
publican campaign threw aside their
weapons as they approached tho alter of
hymen and tho turmoil of politics was
forgotten in the sunshine of cupid’s
presence. Secretary of the Navy Her
bert and his charming daughter were
among tho guests. Governor Altgeld
and wife, of Illinois, and ex-Govemors
Fifer and Oglesby and their children
wore conspicuous in the assemblage.
PyiUical fiiiL rences and bitter partisan
thoughts were east aside, and in the
homo of tho Republican journalist Dem
ocrats, Republicans, Popuiiits and Pro
hibitionists were as one happy family.
thousand invitations were sent
out for the ceremony at the church, and
the building was filled before. 8 o’clock,
the hour for tho service to begin, and
hundreds had gathered about the church
to witness the arrival of the bridal party
and tlio guests from abroad.
The Rev. Mr. Mueller, pastor of the
church of the bride, pronounced the
words that joiued the two young lives.
It was the modified form of the Episco
pal ring ceremony* which is usel by the
Unitarian church. When the question
was asked, ‘-Who gives this brideV” the
father of the bride arose from his seat
among tho relatives and replied, “I do.”
The impressive and beautiful ceremony
ended, Dr. Kane delivered a prayer,
asking the Almighty to pour His bless
ings upon the husband and wife and
grant them health, long life and happi
ness, here and hereafter. The wedding
service ended by the recitation of the
Lord’s prayer by the bridal party and
the congregation, a beautiful custolh of
the Unitarian church.
A reception was held at the home of
the parents of the bride immediately
after the ceremony at the church.

THURSTON REMAINS,
Although Hie t i Uv D« |» :r m ::t S-.ys He
Has Acted Jn-ii-u-rectJy.
Washington, Nov. 23. — Minister
Thurston, of Hawaii, will net likely re
ceive lii3 passports, although it was said
at tho state department that there was
abundant grounds for such action. Was
it in any other country, or in this coun
try, under any other circumstances, his
passports would be issued immediately.
It is not denied that his' letter is a
breach of uiplomany and amply suffi
cient to warrant this government in im
mediately severing all relations with the
Hawaiian mi nster.
Such action would bo taken but for
the reason that the American people
might not think it was fair play; that
the right of any man to take and giv
liis side of the controversy is always con
ceded, anl to force Mr. Thurston to
leave this country would be considered
by the people as a disposition not to
ailow the other side a hearing.
The department chooses to consider
the publication as a statement by Thurs
ton, a vitally interested party, in tho
outcome of the Hawaiian affair, and
not tho statement or tho Hawaiian min
ister.
The publication referred to is an inter
view given out by Minister Thurston, in
which ho attacks the report of Mr.
Blount, and charges incorrect statements
regarding the < o mection of Thurston
with the overthrow of tho Hawaiian
