10 THE MACON WEEKLY TELEGRAPH. TUESDAY, JUNE 20, 1886.-TWELVE PAGES. HIE INSIDE OF ATLANTA. FURTHER DEVELOPMENTS IN THE FAILURE OF WALTER TAYLOR. Foreign Creditor., rat On Notice by The Telegraph, In.tltute Proceeding. In the Courts and Secure the Ap pointment of a Receiver. CAMPBPLL Atlanta, June 24.—On the night of June 12th, nearly two week* ago, 1 wired the Tkleobaph the rumored embarrassment of Walter A. Taylor, placing hla liability at $70,0C0. Aa the matter waa of acme Importance, commercially, I called upon Mr. Taylor to ascertain what truth there waa 1 the Tumor. He replied that be had simply bo! ' out hla business to J. II. Porter and B. J. Lowry. Further than this I couli get no information from him. On tb4 following day I sent the TxLKomArn some further reports about the matter, one placing Taylor's liabilities in trie neighborhood of $160,000. These report* were read in the Teleubahi by many of tbe business men of Atlanta. They indicated a failure in bus iness circles here of considerable magnitude, and It waa wondered why the city papers, which must have been at tbe time, or soon after, in possession of facta, did not gi .e the information to the public. Foreign creditor* were, therefore, put on notice of the trouble through the publication in the Tele- graph and instituted proceeding* for the recovery of their claim*. I believe the city paper* have not yet noticed a failure which cannot fall abort of $160,000, and which, commercially speaking, is of Importance to the entire busluei a community. Yesterday the Giles Lithograph Company, of New York, creditor* to the amount of of $2,317.96, Hied n creditor's bill against Taylor in the Superior Court, asking the appointment of a receiver. The bill, after setting forth the indebtedness, says that when demand waa made on Taylor, he stated that he waa totally Insolvent and could not pay. He admitted that be owed upwards of $136,000, with assets of only $42,000. The bill avers that not withstanding tliii admission of Insolvency, Taylor continued in business, buying and selling good*, and contracting new debts, thereby Imposing on tbo public. They further allege that Taylor made threat* that he would prevent the collection of their claim. They further allege that Taylor was shipping large quan tities of goods on every train, aud making collec tion of money, which should be devoted to the payment of this claim and to other creditors, but he waa putting the same out of their reach. Judge Marshal J. Clack, after hearing the bill, appointed Dr. Julian A. Hutchinson temporary receiver. I am informed that when the receiver went to Taylor’s place of business it was some time before he could get possession under the order of court, and that Anally two deputy sheriffs were called in to enforce the order of court. The place was closed up, and is still closed. Walter Taylor has made answer through bis at torney, Hoke Smith, that he la not now a trader; that he has sold out his buslnem and transferred his notes and accounts to Porter and Lowry,to whom ho is largely Indebted, and that such a bill cannot bo Aled against him. He admits his insolvency, and lays his misfortunes to over-advertising. J. U. Porter and W. M. and It. J. Lowry, through their counsel, Hoke Smith, have made themselves parties defendant to the bill. They claim that they have bought all the property, business, trade marks, notes and acoounta of ^ylor, anil that be his nothing to do with it. It must be confeeaed that Messrs. Porter and Lowry, in their answers, make a remarkable show* ing. Id connection with it, however, it will be re membered that J. U. Porter and II. J. Lowry are brolhen-tn law of Taylor. 1L J. Lowry says be bad advanced Taylor to cirry on his business $33,639.30 up to June 12, the date of the transfer. Taylor transferred to him all of hia notes aud account* aud hta trade marks, • Sweet Ultra and Mullein,’' "Huckleberry Cordial" and "Taylor's Premium Cologne." The trade marks were put at $11,000 J. U. Potor seems to have got in a little deeper, according to bis answers. He says be holds the deeds in escrow to the stora building occupied by Taylor to sscurs him for $8,000 on the purchase money. He also owes tbe Merchants* Bank, of which he is presi dent. $32,169.40, money loaned and overdrafts In addition to this tbo bank discounted drafts drawn by Taylor on his creditors long before they were due, to the amount of $32,014.26. |The balance of the assets of Taylor, not made over to Lowry, were transferred to Porter. Ia Taylor’s answer, be says that since the sale, June 12, he has been carrying on buainess for Porter and Lowry, on a salary. To-day Messrs. Porter and Lowry notided the at torney of the Giles Ltthogragh Company that to morrow they would give their individual bond in double the amount Involved in order to release the property and business from the receiver. It will be eeen from these sworn statements that the reports first sent the Telkosatu have been more than corroborated, and that the failure U a heavy one. Mr. Taylor is a young BUn who is very popular In Atlanta, and has many warn friends who will re- grat hif business misfortunes and hope soon to see him on his feet again. There is no donbt of the financial ability of Messrs. Porter and Lowry to put blm through, if they are disposed to do to. TUB GUBERNATORIAL CAMPAIGN Not to bo Put Down f*»r General Gordon Yet Awhile* * Faiubuun, June 24.—The committee met the Hecond time in this county to-day. The Gordon men got pretty hot, but the Bacon men held np for onr rights. The committee stood: for Bacon, Colonel J. H. Longino, J. L. Latham, Frank Stead an<l Joel Smith; for Gordon, W. C. Parker, Jimmie Thames and Robert May son. But the most outrageous thing was, Good’.? district was not represented, and the Fairborn committeeman lias died since the last gubernatorial convention. J. H. Longino was brought in for Fair- burn district; then W. C. Parker as a proxy from Goods, nobody knows how he got it, but mind you they cast their vote aud Colonel J. H. Longings vote brought in Parker. Now he lives in Fairburn dis trict, and when ho got in he made a motion to elect Dock Vickers, a Gordon man, in place of J. H. Longino. Don’t put Campbell dowri for Gordon until after July 17th. Three cheers for Bacon, for we will get there, Eli. P.

Re Opens the Campaign In Whitfield lu the Interest of aisjor Bacon. Dalton, Ga., June 24.—The first note sounded for Bacon from the stump in this county was from tko clarion voice of Hon, W. H. Felton to-day. About six huudred voters greeted him on notice of but a few hours. General Gordon was fearfully arraigned, and evidence bronplit to sustain the indictment to the satisfaction of the large portion of the audience. Glenn had reached home and asked hearing in the interest of Gen. Gordon, and it was granted. The friends of Major Bacon are warmed up to the work that is before them, and it is not impossible that Whitfield may swell the Bacon column Sunday morning. Gor don’s friends are, however, leaving nothing unturned. DUPONT GUKKKY Speaks at Newnan—He Is Iladly Upset by Major Bacon's Friends. Newnan, June24.— DuPontGuerry spoke here to-day. Hon. W. A. Turner replied. No one knew of Guerry’s coming except the Gordon men, but Major Bacon’s friends were in a majority at tho meeting, and the little clique here, os well as Master DuPont, were badly upset in their calculations. Guerry’a speech would have been a creditable effort on a memorial occasion, but was a miserable failure as a political speech. It was a rehash of those that have preceded this. He abused Dr. Felton and the Tele graph, and indulged in insinuations against Garrard, probably forgetting that neither ot these are candidates. No votes were changed. Coweta will send a delegation for Bacon. TWIGGS Bends Bacon Delegate*. Bullards, Ga., June 24.—Bacon dele gates elected by & majority of fifty-six in a vote of three hundred and six.

OUR GOVERNMENT BUILDING. —It is rumored that An ice factory is to be erected at Fort Gaines. An Encouraging Outlooi^or Major Bacon All Along the Line. Atlanta, June 24.—Major Bacon reached the city this morning from LaGrange, where he made a speech yesterday. He was very much pleased with the reception given him In Troup. He left this evening for Haralson. While hers he was called on by numbers of warm friends who have high hopea that he will succeed in the canvaaa he is making. Major Bacon ia hearing up well under the hard*hip* of an almost unprecedented politi cal contaet A private letter from a strong man in Columbus, received hers to-day, expresses con fidence that Muscogaa will cast her vote* for Major Bacon.

All that la neeeaaary la that his friends go the polls at the primary and vote. A cheering sign of the campaign waa tha i lion Riven Major Bacon in Coweta. He waa a com parative stranger to the people, but the rousing re ception they gave him} warmed his heart and brought him inspiration. Tha Gordon managers have been alarmed about Coweta. It is reported they have besought everybody who has acquain tances there, social or commercial, to write letters into the county, and when possible to go there and make personal appeals. The friends of Major Ba con in tbs county will hava to watch this mova- AN APPEAL To the People of Georgia. Clarksville, Jane 24.—Please allow me apace in your valuable paper to make a few suggestions to the people of Georgia on the issues of the present campaign. We support Major Bacon for Governor because no is an honest and true Democrat, manly, patriotic, bold and true to his native State. We should not support a man, who if ho waa elected, would be likely to resign his office if he saw a chance to nmke a few thousand dollars. Sach a man as this is unsafe and should not be txusted as the chief magistrate of a State. We truly ad mit that General Gordon was a brave sol dier, but that does not have anything to do with his trncnc** to his people or his busi ness qualifications. Our people ahould not think that hccauxe a wan is brave or did some brave act in the war that he wonld make a good Governor. We should judge them by what they are doiug for tho State now. Even If a man was as puro as the rooming sun during the war he mtij have become corrupt and unsafe. What has General Gordon done for the State of Geor gia slues the war? U is true that the pco de elected him to the Senate of the United Jtates, but what did he do in tho iuU-rest of Georgia while ho wub there before his resig nation? Dear readers t)f tho Telegraph, if yon are Bacon men be stronger Bacon men, be cause it is to the Interest of the State In bich you live. Ho is for his native land. May his endeavors be crowned with suc cess. We ought to help him, honor him, and make him Governor of Georgia. For he who serves his people true is worthy of our support. Readers, let us support the man who has honestly, faithfully and fearlessly served ns so long. He has asked ns for the office of Governor, and we will show the *'grand monopoly company” on the 28th ox July that they cannot possess the State of Geor gia. A.

A few days ago the Telegraph published a set of resolutions Adopted by tbe bar of Macon, requesting tho authorities to pro ceed with the erection of the United States court house os soon as possible. The reso lutions were forwarded by Judge Emory Speer, and the following is the letter of Architect Bell i i reply: iBKAHVBY DEPABTMKBT.OrriCE OF THE SurEBVIR- ino architect, Juue 21, 1886.—The Honorable Emory Speer,Uulted Staten JudRe, Macon. Ga. - Sir: ro in receipt, by reference from the liouorahle rotary of the treasury, of your letter of the 14th lust, enclosing resolutions of the bar of the United state* court* holding sessions in Macon, and urg ing the completion at the earliest possible time of near court bouse in that city. In response thereto, permit me to say that, aa oon aa it waa possible for this office to take up tbe Uns for that building, designs were prepared, tbe preliminary sketches having been aonlewbat de layed pending a decision aa to whe ther two court room* or oue ahould be provided. and a* the ap propriation waa manifestly inadequate for the erec tion of a building with two court rooms, it was de cided to build one room of suitable size aud to go on at once. As soon as this decision was reached. pUns were prepared and app ovei. Of these plans I enclose tracings for your inspection. Under these plana tbe working drawings were at once begun, and work has been commenced upon tbe excava tion, which, by superintendent's report, will bo completed at an early day. The foundation plan is ready and the drawings for the superstructure* are in a forward state, and it is not anticipated that auything will occur to delay the progress of the building to an early completion. Your own aud the citizens of Maccn's anxiety ia appreciated, and you are assured that no effor a will bo spared to pash this work as rapidly as posslb e. Referring to the plans for the buildiDg sent here with, yon will not find in them all the accommoda tion spoken of by you in your letter. Tne limit of cost of tbe building, fixed by act of Congress, has determined tbe size of tbe building, and the plans have been made w ith the intention of utilizing in the best niauner tbe space thereiu. Originally it waa intended to use a suite of three rooms in the first story for the court offices, but the Post-office Department declined to approve the de signs null! these offices were assigned to the postal service, and the court room accommodation waa therefore reduced that much. Koipectfully yours, M. £, Dell, Supervising Architect. BYRON. Condition of tbe Growing Crops—The High School—Political Notes. Byron, June 24.—The recent heavy rains have seriously damaged the melon crop, and in consequence thereof shipments will bo made later than usual this season. Cottc n and corn are both doing well, though grassy and an abundant yield is anticipated. The Byron High School, under manage ment of Major E. II. Ezell, will closo its spring term on Friday July 2-1, with au ex amination and exhibition: The inimitable The Library's Bis Holiday and Fourth of July Entertainment* “I am not only willing to contribute a shot© to tbe barbecue but I intend to bring all my family who can have the place, and spend the entire day with you." ThuB wrote a well-known farmer to a Macon merchant yesterday in writing o the library's big fourth. “It is the only day that my husband can afford to lose in the year, and he makes us happy by taking me and tbe children to the park, when we can all et joy the day to gether.” Tans said a mechanic's wife when asked if she was going to the park on the fourth. “We had lots of fun last year. We saw the boys swim and’ run and the bicycles and tho tng of war ai d tab race and all tho other things. I wouldn't miss it for ham:” Thus said a small boy when asked if his fAtber would let him go to the park on tbe Fourth. And so it goes. Everybody, from tho humblest day-laborer to the rich merchant or banker, will go down and spend the day. All the schools are closed and the children who have been houseel np with books will have a chance to sniff fresh air, enjoy the many sights and get a bite of the barbecue. Our friends in tho country e making their arrnngaments to come into town and spend the day when they can Bee something belter than a circus at much lees cast ami enjoy a bit of barbecue. The people in the neighboring towns aro waiting patiently for the time to roll around when they can come to Macon aud see not only the town but the many athletic sports, hear the music, and break bread with our people. Macon lets down tbe bars on that day and writes the word welcome on all the honsetops, the streets and in fact all over the town.

Couldn't Fool Him with Such a letter. “One day last week,” says the Hawkins- ville Dispatch, “we were talking with a well- knorfu citizen of Wilcox county. Some thing was said about the thousands of lith ograph letters that have been aent ont from Atlanta with General Gordon's name signed to them, and addressed to old soldiers, ask ing them to help him (Gordon) in his race for Governor. 'Yes,' said the citizen from Wilcox, 'I received one of these letters. And now let tne tell you—I waa in tbe war long enough to find out that there waa not mnch intimacy between the privates and the big officers, and I don't see why General Gor don should be sending out so many letters to hia 'dear comrades.' ” HUB. 11.

The symptoms of biliousness are nn- happily but too well known. They differ in different individuals to some extent, however. A bilious man is seldom breakfast eater. Too frequently, alas! he has an excellent appetite for liquids but none for solids of a morning. Ills tongue will hardly bear inspection at any time; if it is not white and furred it is rough, at all events. Tho digestive system is wholly out of order; diarrhea or constipation may bo a symptom, or the two may alternate. There aro very often hemorrhoids, or loss of blood, even. There may be giddiness, and often headache, and acidity or flatu lence, and tenderness at the pit of tbe stomach. The pain felt in the right shoulder indicates an extra bad ease, but apart from thia there are aching pains and even stiffness in the limbs, with more or less of cramps in tbe limb muscles, or bandog in the palm* of tho hands, with hot perspiring feet. There may bo drow siness and torpor by day, and sleeplessness at night, and all aorta and conditions of mind, cape daily irritability, fits of had temper that come on suddenly and go off ■gain, and that none are so thoroughly grieved nt as the poor patient himself Bil ious people generally fiy for relief to aperi ent pills, and there is no doubt that they often afford temporary n lief bv relieving EVERYBODY IS COMING. .a „ ’ Ihe Man of the H onr .

This really is anti phlogistic treatment, but it assuredly is not radical. When a ftih.pond ovetfi >ws its bunks, we may let off a portion of tbe wa ter, but after this we ought, metbinks, to find our wny to the other end of tbe pool and lessen the inflow. Well, jnst a wold about treatment. First and foremost, then, in andden bilion* at tack*, tint urc often accompanied by great prostration aud by urgent vomiting, it is liest to send for a medical man. Such at tacks generally come on in tbe morning, lit the time the body is most weak. I do not think upon the whole I sbonld be justified in Daggering medicinal remedies in this paper, for the simple reason that coses dif fer so. The mineral acid* and bitter vege table tonics often do good. 8o does nux vomica and aconite. Then there ia dande lion end chloride of ammoninm end alka lies. Bat I can only generalize. A bine pill and colocjnib, followed next day by a gloss of l'ulina water, will want off many an at tack, if tbe patient goes in for preventive measures afterward, and follows a course of rational living. The podouhyllin pill, trom a quarter to half a grain of extract, in three to five of extract hvoicyamns, may do as well as the bine pill, if not better. Soda water or lithla water sad milk shonld be drunk next day, end very little solid food taken, though beet tea mixed with arrow loot will be found very nonrishiu*; or araw egg beaten np in milk. Little good will ac- crue from treating a cose like this, however, if, when he ia once more well, the patient returns to his old non-bygienie habits of life. “What am I to do, then?” may be asked, I will tell yon what yon are not to do. Yon are not to overeat; yon arc net to nee sugar or fat to any extent, paddings, pastry or cheese. Yon are not to touch alcohol. Yon are not to sit in orerheated rooms. Yon are neither to overwork or worry yonnelf. And yon are not to shirk tbe niuruing tab, nor plenty of exercise. What are yon to do for the acidity ? Abstemiousness end regulation of diet and habits will entirely banish it, and yon will have the pleasure of knowing that its absence is a sign of rejuvenation of the liver. If yon lint try a week of the treatment I suggest I feel convinced yon will once more feel a pleasure in life and an interest in ell yonr surroundings. Bat acidity often leads to rheumatism, end on this subject I bops to have more to eey an other day. I shall be quite satisfied with my present paper if it put a taw of my read ers on tbe right road to health, and that cm only be got at by seeking for end removing first ceases instead of treating symptoms.
