Bank FaiIure-FasaI Accidents Sudden
Eyeath.
COLUMBUS, OHIO, November 10.-S.
S. Rickley, banker, made an assign
ment this morning for the benefit of cred
itors 10 General Charles G. Walcutt. His
liabilities are estimated at one hundred
and twenty-five thousand dollars, and
assets one hundred and seventy-five
thousand dollars. At the beginning OF
the late financial panic run was made
on Rickley's bank, and it was necessary
to suspend for short time, but after
ward business was resumed and con-
tinued until this morning when, owing
to the impOssibility of converting Sc
curities into currency, he made the as
signment. The necessary depositors in
this bank are mostly poor people. The
selection of person so well known as
General Walcutt assures the speedy ad
justification of the troubles. A full
statement Of the condition Of the bank
will be made as soon as possible.
John Galloway was terribly crusNe

The virginius Affair.
| WASHINGTON, November 9.-The
secretary of state has sent instructions
/ to both Minister Sickles at Madrid and
Consul General Hall at Havana, to
| telegraph as soon as possible, all the
facts in regard to the capture of the Vir-
| ginius, and execution of parties on board
/ that vessel, but Hall replies that there
is some interruption Of the telegraph
| between Havana and Santiago de Gu
ba, and as vet, he has been unable to
learn any particulars. A dispatch from
| Minister Sickles states that the Madrid
government had no information of the
execution until after it had occurred.
| The only information the government
now has is the fact that the ViFginius
| was captured and several persons on her
executed, but as to what waters or un-
der what circumstances the vessel was
captured, no information has been re-
ceived. Until these facts are known Off
cially, the government will take no ac-
ton in the matter. The question being
a very delicate one, it is not the inten-
ton of our authorities to take any step
which cannot be maintained under the
law of nations. Our government is not
satisfied that the Virginius is entitled to
the protection of the United States. 1t
is true that she sailed from New York
under an American register, but it has
been charged that she was sold to Que
sada some fifteen or eighteen months ago
at Curacao, and since that time has been
sailing both the Cuban and Venezuelan
flags; and if that charge should turn out
to be true she cannot receive the protec- |
ton of our government. The indications
are that the CASTELAR, government is dis
posed to act in perfectly honest man |
ner with the United States, but the in |
ternal dissensions now in existence in |
Spain do much toward embarrassing ii |
on the island of Cuba. The influence of
the Casino and Pagnola clubs of wealthy |
Shareholders has been very disastrous to |
the home government, besides the in |
surrection. The feeling in official circles |
here is anything but unfriendly to |
Spain, and it is the impression that |
only few days will elapse before it will |
be seen that Castellar's government is |
anxious to have the friendship and en-
couragement of the United States. Tie |
State department is not aware that any |
United States vessel was sent to Santi- /
ago de Cuba, but it is probable that orders |
have been issued by the rear-admiral, |
commanding the north Atlantic squad |
ron, for one of the vessels en- that sta /
ton to proceed thither.
