James K Blount Crossing the Continentl CHICAGO LABT NIGHT. To Take a Revenue Cutter at San Francisco if Necessary and Go to Honolulu and Get the Facts for Mr. Cleveland. By Telegraph to The Herald. Washington, March 16. —Secretary Carlisle this morning declined to af firm or deny the sty./ ment that the revenue cutter Rush, at San Francisco, had been ordered to hold herself in readiness to carry Mr. Blount to Hawaii. It is unofficially stated, how ever, that the revenue cutter will be placed at Mr. Blount’s disposal on his arrival, and unless arrangements can be made for a Pacific mail steamer which sails for China on the 23rd instant to touch at Honolulu. Mr. Blount will sail on the Rush. It will take that vessel about a week to make the trip. The supposition that the Rush has been ordered for this duty receives confirmation from the fact that several marine officials who three days ago denied positively that any orders to this effect had been given, are this morning as dumb as oysters on the subject. Blount in Chicago. By Telegraph to The Herald. Chicago, March 16.—The facts in the Hawaiian annexation muddle are what President Cleveland and Secretary Gresham are after, and ex-Congress man James 11. Blount, of Georgia, is going to the islands to ascertain the correct history of the whole matter. Mr. Blount arrived at midnight and today will hurry on to San Francisco to take a boat for Honolulu. He is accompanied by Mrs. Blount and Paivate Secretary and Stenogra pher Ellis Mills, of the state depart ment. Both envoy and his secretary decline to talk. THE BROWNS COMING.

J., to the Evening World says: The town hall building, covering half a block, on Ellison and Cross streets, was totally destroyed by fire this morning. The loss is roughly estimated at $75,000.

New York, March 16.—Secretary of the Navy Herbert was entertained at a dinner last night by Colonel Elliot F. Shepard.

JEJME The Latest News as to the Probable Opening. OVER SBOO,OOO IN CASH. Possibility That Mr. J. G. Oglesby Will Be the New President and That He Will Have a Strong Directory. The affairs of the Gate City National bank appear to be in an uncertain/ state. It may be taken for granted that the bank will re-open, but when it will open or by whom it will be opened is a question. Important negotiations are pending —there is no doubt about that but the bank men either do not know the de tails or else are unwilling to state them. It may safely be accepted that Mr. Lod Hill will not be the president of the reorganized company. He has said, The Herald is informed, that he wished the affairs of the bank satis factorily straightened up, and there after never desired to see the interior of a bank again. Mr. June Oglesby has been men tioned as the probable new president. He says he will serve only on certain conditions. One of the most important is that a local board of directors satis factory to himself be chosen. The re maining conditions he declined to state and he was also .averse to making public the names of the parties nego tiating for the management of the bank. “You can set it down, however, that if I take hold of the institution, or if the parties negotiating take hold, every dollar due will be paid and the bank put on a solid and thoroughly satisfactory, basis.” Within a couple of days, the chances are, the public can have all the infor mation it wishes. Meantime those who contemplate a trade are keeping mum. Mr. Welborn Hill, Cashier McCan less and Examiner Stone were seen but from none of these could any mate rial information be had. The bank, since its suspension, has made a phenomenal showing. At that time it had only about $25,000 in hand and now it has in the neighborhood of $200,000 more. - - - All the bank men are of the opinion that there is no reason why it should not re-open, and if re-opened under the auspices of a new management in which the public place confidence there is reason to believe that it will do a fine business, and instead of its suspension hurting the town the re sumption will do good. THE LOY WINS. Piano Factory Case Decided in Mrs. Holliday’s Favor. In the contest between the first and second mortgagees against the assets of the late Atlanta Piano Forte Man ufacturing company, Mrs. J. S. day, who held a second mortgage, won the suit. The bonds issued on the first mort gage were in the hands of the Lowry Banking company, and the issue of the Holliday side of the case was that these first mortgage bonds drew an usurious rate of interest. This view of the case seems to have been taken by the jury, and a verdict of $13,500 was given to Mrs. Holliday. Thirty questions were submitted to the jury,, each of which had to be de cided before the rendering of the ver dict. After the foreman announced his verdict, the jury was complimented by his honor, Marshall J. Clarke. There have been many subtle legal points involved, and the case has been watched with deep interest by the lawyers of the city. The winning side was represented by Messrs. Arnold & Arnold, while the Lowry Banking company employed in its behalf Messrs. Candler & Thomson. THE POSTOFFICE. The Claims of the Condidates to Be Voted on. The proposition has been nfade in Washington that the applicants for the Atlanta postoffice submit their claims to the people to be passed on in an election. The candidates are Major Couper, Mr. Kontz and Dr. Fox. It is likely that none of them will decline to go into an election. It has been proposed that the election be held on the day next month set for an election on the bond question. t\inerved.

Mr. Grady will be entertained to night either by being taken to the Grand, or at a private house but which Julias not yet been determined. A program of tomorrow’s festivities, including the meeting at Hibernian hap, attendance at the Church of the Immaculate Conception upon the cele bration of mass by Father Hennesy, tile street parade and finally the ad dress of Mr. Grady, at the opera house, on Marietta street, was given in yes terday’s Herald. Many inquiries have been addressed to the committee in charge, concerning tickets of admission to the opera house. There will be no tickets. The doors will be wide open and the general pub lic is cordially invited to attend. Three hundred tickets have been sc’d for the banquet at Hibernian hall tomorrow night at $3 each. The tickets issued are printed in gilt and green and are of elaborate design. In one corner appear the mysterious- Irish words, “Caed Miela Failthe.” Translated this means “A hundred thousand welcomes.” And the prepara tions for the banquet are such as to leave the impression that the words are not lightly written there. “Wine,” one of the gentlemen who has been active in arranging for the feast said this morning, “will flow like water. We wont trifle /with bottles— there will be barrels of it.” It is needless to add: They “wont go home until morning.” Gladstone’s Condition. By Telegraph to The Herald. London, March 16.—Mr. Gladstone is recovering from his indisposition and is progressing so satisfactorily that no more bulletins will be issued as to his condition. l MANY YEARS. A Man Arrested for Striking Another Thirteen Years Ago. F. A Pinyon, a United States deputy marshal, who thirteen years ago in the discharge of his official duties had occasion to strike a man named Lewis Turner in Dawsonville, Dawson county, Georgia, was arrested yester day for his old offense. At least, this is the story Pinyon tells, to which is added the remarkable fact that he has been hounded down like a hare. His life has been threat ened a number of times since. He even moved to Missouri to escape the determined vigilance of his enemies, but there also he had occasion to know that his pursuers were still on his track. Four months ago Pinyon returned to Atlanta, thinking perhaps that at this late day his enemies had at last forgotten, if not forgiven, the stroke dealt to the man Turner thirteen years ago. - He was mistaken. It is the thir teenth year since the beginning of his troubles the unlucky number in the train of time, and yesterday he was arrested and on a warrant sworn out by Turner. Turner came here from the moun tains as a witness in a Federal court case and learned of Pinyon’s presence, and as a result, his ancient enemy was arrested. Pinyon tells many remarkable tales of the long course of wrongs he had endured, and together they form a thrilling story. SENT HOME. Mollie Arris Was Sent to Talla poosa Today. Mollie Arris, the 10-year-old girl who was sent here by the mayor of Tallapoosa several days ago, was re turned to that place this morning. The little girl came to Atlanta in search of her mother and failing to find her was sent to the Home for the Friendless. Her father and mother had sepa rated and both had left Tallapoosa.

Cleared for the Man Who Broke the Gate City National Bank—The Latest Developments. One hundred and three thousand one hundred and forty-eight dollars and seventy-eight cents is the sum Lewis Redwine stole from the Gate City bank. At 15 minutes before 1 o’clock today the grand jury had ' completed its labors in the case and went into open court and presented the true bill. The bill was handed the clerk by Mr. Charles S. Kingsberry, foreman. The following is the reading of the bill: United States of America—Northern District of Georgia, of the March term of the circuit court of the United States, within and for the Northern district of Georgia, in the year of our Lord 1893. The grand jurors of the United States of America chosen selected and sworn within and for the Northern district of Georgia in the name and by authority of the United States of America, upon their oaths do find and present that Lewis Redwine, late of the district aforesaid heretofore to wit: On the 21st of February in the year of our Lord 1893, within the said northern district of Georgia un lawfully and with force and arms did then and there on the day and year last aforesaid, the said Lewis Redwine being receiving teller of and assistant cashier of a certain national banking association, then and there organized under and by virtue of the laws of the United States, and then and there car rying on the business of banking at Atlanta, in said district, to-wit: The Gate City National bank of Atlanta, and the said Lewis Redwine being receiving teller and assistant cashier of said banking association, em bezzle and wilfully misapply certain of the moneys of said Gate City National bank of Atlanta, to-wit: One hundred and three thou sand, one hundred and forty-eight dollars and seventy-eight cents ($103,- 148.78)', with-intent in him, said Lewis Redwine, then and there, receiving teller and assistant cashier as afore said, to injure and defraud the Gate City National bank of Atlanta, con trary to the form of the statute in such case made and provided, and against the peace and dignity of the United States of America. S. A. Darnell, United States Attorney. A true bill, this 16th day of March, 1893. Charles S. Kingsberry, Foreman of the Grand Jury. The following are the names of .the witnesses on whose testimony the true bill was found; H. H. Black, Horace Owens, L. J. Hill, Isom Lewis, E. S. McCandless, E. M. Cason, D. S. Looney, Mack Marsh, A. B. Connolly, Jack Cohen, Cora Howard, John Wheat, Henry Flynn, John Henderson, Jos. Gatins, Steve Ryan, Paul Bomare, J. W. English, J. C. Stone, J. N. Moody, Harvey,Johnson. Redwine’s trial will take place with in the next two weeks. This is what District Attorney Darnell says about it: “Redwine will be tried as . soon as we can get ready for his case. He will be tried within from a week to two weeks.” Colonel N. J. Hammond, Redwine’s attorney, was seen and said : “As far as I know there will be no steps taken out of the ordinary chan nel in such cases.” The grand jury convened at the usual hour and started the third day of its work in the Redwine case. The first witness summoned this morning was Mr. John Henderson, of the Gate City bank, who told what he knew of Mr. Redwine’s character as a banker, as well as other matters per taining to the assistant cashier’s busi ness habits. Mr. John B. Wheat, of the bank, was also called in and gave what informa tion he possessed, which was not of an important character. Mr. Harry Flynn, an attache of the bank, also testified. Isom Lewis, the porter, told all he knew of the defaulter, but his testi timony developed nothing startling or new. Mr. Alf Caiquhoun also testified in the case. The most important witness sum moned this morning was Mrs. Ham mond, who called at Cora Howard’s place, when Redwine was there, and who remained with the fugitive in a room in the house of Cora Howard. It has been stated that Redwine squandered a good deal of the money filched from the bank on the Ham mond woman, and that furthermore Mrs. Hammond was the assistant cashier’s mistress. A person who is in position to know, said in reference to the matter this morning: “There is not a word of truth in the story. There was a period of seven months before Redwine’s defalcation in which Redwine went out at night but three times, and the story that Mrs. Hammond was the assistant cash ier’s mistress is totally without foun dation.” Among the witnesses standing about the corridor awaiting the calling of their names were Horace Owens and , i (Continued in next column J 0 Alum DWt Miss Leila Nott to Dance the Serpentine At the Kleibacker Benefit at the Edgewood Tonight. The Ricketts-Mathews company will close its engagement in this city on Saturday night and will leave here for Charleston, S. C., on Sunday, where they will remain for two weeks. During the company’s engagement at the Edgewood Avenue theatre it has been shown many courtesies by Manager Kliebacker and tonight he will be given a benefit. Aside from the fact that the com pany will draw a good-sized audience on its own merits, Mr. Kleibacker has a host of friends who will attend the performance in compliment to him. The patrons of the house have long since agreed that the company was at its best in “A Legal Document” and that has been chosen as tonight’s at traction. An additional feature has been added to the company, for tonight only, in the dancing of Miss Leila Nott who will give the beautiful Um brella or Serpentine dance. An additional charm will be added to the dancing of this little lady by the fact that she is an Atlantian She is the daughter of Professor F. C. Nott, the dancing master, and has been taught by her father, all of the dances that are now given on the stage. She is only 13 years old and this will be her first appearance with a professional company, though she has danced at several of her father’s entertainments. When the Serpentine dance was first introduced Professor Nott began the work of teaching it to his daughter and now says that she has learned it so perfectly that he is satisfied that she cannot be excelled. Miss Leila is a perfect little bru nette with a charming face and figure and dances with the ease and grace of one born for the art. The Rainbow dance is numbered among the accomplishments of the young lady, and in a few weeks she may be seen in it here. This dance has never been given, as it was originally introduced in Paris, in this country, and it’s presentation in Atlanta, and by an Atlantian, will make it doubly interesting. TO THE CHIEF.

Black, who were yesterday released on account of the failure to'find true bills. As is natural, both of the men are elated over their acquittal, and spoke in a jolly mood on the subject this morning. Said Horace Owens: “I knew that I would come clear of this thing. It’s mighty hard, you know, to convict an innocent man, and on that basis I came clear of any guilt in the matter. There have been many lies told on me, and I will settle sooner or later with the people who told them. I could have proven that while I still had Redwine in custody that I con sulted three or four lawyers on the subject, and all of them said that I was committing no wrong in holding my man for the reward. I certainly would not have remained in town if I had desired to get Redwine out of the way.” Black still has it in for a reporter who visited him while he was behind the bars at police headquarters and who, he claims, treated him unfairly. “I don’t know his name,” said Black,, “but if ever I recognize him 1 am going to slap his jaws just so,” and Black made a sweep gesture to show how he was going to punish the newspaper man. Redwine had not up to noon made his appearance at the custom house, and it is understood that he will re fuse to come before the body any more, since he claims to have told all he knew of the matter and all he intends to tell. There is a very general sentiment that Redwine will go to the peniten tiary, if convicted, without ever giving away the persons who are alleged to have profited by the amounts which were abstracted from the. bank. The reason of this is that Redwine would profit nothing either in the lightening of his sentence or in the service which might afterwards be rendered by these friends if he told on them. Then his acquaintances claim that he has sufficient sand in bis fibre to go through with his terrible ordeal with out implicating others in it. SIX CENTS A WEEK 1 LAL Y HIIHT. She is Run Over By an Electrio Car This Morning. ( IS A RUSSIAN JEWESS. The Accident Occured at Nine O’clock—Rebecca Marcovitclif Aged Twenty-Eight TSearSj and Married. Rebecca Marcovitch, a Russian Jew ess, 28 years old, who lives at 131>£ De catur street, was run over and seri ously injured by an electric car on Decatur street this morning at 9 o’clock. The woman lives with her husband and four children in a little back room and in that room her husband has a tailor shop. This morning she started to a store opposite her home and just as she reached the center of the street and stepped on the track an electric car struck her. She was knocked down by the force of the shock and dragged about fifteen feet before the car stopped. The accident occurred on a portion of the street that is thickly settled with Russian Jews and created con siderable excitement. She was taken up the stairs to her room by several people and her in juries were examined. The wheels of the car had not' touched her and her injuries were* caused from being struck and then dragged. A Russian Jew who keeps a store in front of the place where the accident occurred, said the car was only about ten feet from the woman when she ran directly in front of it and was knocked down before the car could be stopped. Her injuries, while very painful, are not dangerous. MUST PAY TOLL > a Street Car Companies Will Have to Pay to Cross the Bridge.
