FAILURE ON 'CHANGE.
McKlm Played tho Bear Side a Little
too Long.
Vert, Hires IL-The ot
Clarence McKim & Co. was announced
the Stock Exchange this afternoon.
Iho failure is attributed to short sales
cf American Sugar relining shock, which
nas advanced sharply In the past week.
It Is also stated that the Arm sold privi
leges for a large amount In which the
losses wore considerable. Mr. McKlm a
few years tgo ranked amone the leading
speculators In Wall street and gained
considerable prestige through hts busi
ness connection with certain of tho Van
derbilts. Ho In reported to have mode a
fortune out of the break In Cordage
stocks about three years ago, but lost
heavily later on. Mr. McKlm declined to
state the assets or liabilities of the lirm.
es Its affairs are In the hands of Its cred
itors. Mr. McKlm was admitted for
membership to the Stock Exchange tn
September, 1687.
Clarence McKlm, the broker Who sus
pended on tho etock exchange today, was
one of tho boldest bear operators in Wall
street and was reputed to have made be
tween 11,000.000 and 11,500,000 in the panic
ot 1893. He was heavily Short of Read
ing, Cordage, Whisky and Missouri Pa
rifle in December. 1893, nnd stood upon
his short contracts far Into the summer
of I8a3, making huge profits.
His suspension was caused principally
by bis belief that American Sugar Refin
ing stock would be compelled to pass Its
dividends. He was heavily short on
Sugar before the declaration of the divi
dend, when the stock was selling in tho
olgbtles. He lost about 30 points on this
deal besides the two dividends of 3 per
cent, declared In the meantime.
He covered about 20,000 shares of Sugar
today and attempted to even up nil of
his contracts on the exchange with the
hope of pulling through solvent. He fail
ed. however, as all his orders were exe-
cuted through outside brokers in the ex
change, he having outsanding contracts
himself. Bosldee his Stock Exchange con
tracts he dealt largely In privileges, and
had sold calls on over 15,000 shares ot
Sugar.
His losses In Sugar in this one deal
were over 1500,000. Mr. McJCim’s friends
-Ulm ihat ail of Me large operations were
not for himself and that an oBcir of a
prominent trust company who has re
cently resigned and gone to Mexico oper
ated wttn aicXim on Joint account and
"laid down” on his broker. This asso
ciate of McKlm’s was said to be short at
least 10,000 shares of Sugar In McKlm a
office and to have operated heavily on
the long side of Louisville and NaShvllle
and Missouri Paclflc. As both of these
stacks have been declining heavily, while
Sugar has been advancing. McKlm was
caught on both sides of the market.

pie preparations to ship more troops
to Cutta. are pressed forward with
great rapidity. In addition to the three
transports which have already sailed,
half a dozen or more troops' ships have
been made ready to leave Cadiz and
Santander as soon as the Infamtry shall
he got aboard. The total number now
under order is 12,000. Not a few of tho
soldiers are veterans of the previous
campaign. They and the other experi
enced men have been distributed
among the regiments so that every
company of new recruits may have a
backbone of tried campaigners. All
seem equally anxious to go So the front.
Despite the terrors of the Cuban cli
mate for the European and Spaniard,
there are numerous volunteers from
all parts of Whe country. The popular
excitement Is beyond anything war
ranted by the sanguine reports given
out by the government. It Is almost
as great sb when the Kubylee attacked
Mellila.
Among the generals awaiting orders
are C. Marin, Inspector-general oi cav
alry: C. Polavleja, commander of aha
Sixth army corps and Correa Garda,
commandant at Cento, and general of
division.
While military men here profess to
be of the opinion that the insurrec
tion is not very serious, the officers of
Cuban experience—most notably Mar
tinez dc Campos—tear that the out*
break Is the beginning of a long period
of unrest on the island. They think
the army will be forced to remain
some time hi the dlatributed districts.

Atlanta. March 11.—(Special.)—Tho

the city council of Macon, sustaining
the Andlnir of the dower court.
The case la not only of considerable
publlo Interest in Maoon, but also In
volve a principle of municipal license
taxation that U of great Importance
throughout the atate, tbe do :slon to
day being a precedent tn such oaaea.
The Maeoa Door and Lumber
Company, doing business under a gen
eral business license, refused to pay
the special license required by the city
autimritics of all publlo drays or
wagens, the company contending that
their wagons nnd drays were tswen-
Uaty a part of their business as lum
ber dealers, anil therefore being neces
sary to the carrying on of their buri
nes*. the general ’busln-ss license of
the company WAS aH that could be re
quired of them. It was held by the
court, however, that each nnd every
dray or wagon In us - fay the company
was subject to the olty* fleonae tax
on public vehicles, and. as stated, the
supreme court has sfflrm-sl th,* deci
sion. Under this precedent grocery
