CHICAGO, Nov. 1.-THE 7ribune's
Philadelphia correspondent tele-
graphs: "Col, Thomas A. Scott in
for med me this afternoon that no more
bills of the Texas Pacific Construction
Company will be allowed to go to pro-
test, and that John Welsh will ar
range an extension with holders. Col.
Scott says the failure of the Company,
for virtually it is a failure, is mainly
attributable to the present scarcity of
money in Europe and at home, their
consequent inability to dispose Of
their bonds, and thus meet their obi
cations. He is of the opinion that
the difficulties will be settled to the
satisfaction of all concerned
An answer has been filed by Ex-
President Allen, in the case of Aaron
Freeman, against him and the Pacific
Mail Steamship Company. A Ageneral
denial is made to all charges of fraud
andmalfeasance in Office. 1t sets forth
among other things, that during the
year 1873 the Pacific Mail Steamship
Company owned certain amount Of
stock of the Panama Railroad Com
pany but that the Company disposed
Of it during the same year. The
friends of Stockwell say that when he
became President of the Company it
had $1,000 shares of Panama stock. He
afterwards said it was desirable to OBJ
tain more funds, and Stockwell sold
$1,000 shares of stock at 100, leaving
1900 shares which were hypotheca-
ted or loaned for account of the Com
pany in the transaction of its regular
business. They allege that these secu-
rites were enhanced in value, so
that the company actually profited to
the extent of one million dollars by
the operations of its president. After
hypothecation twelve thousand shares
of stock began to fall, and the securi-
ties of the company were pledged to
secure those with whom transactions
had been made. These securities were
afterward purchased by Stockwell, and
in payment thereof he gave mortgages
and notes of the Howe Sewing Ma
chine Company. This left Stockwell
to pay the company debt of 81, ,2OO,-
600, with interest, for these suits were
brought to careful consideration by
the directors, who agreed to an adj
journment of the claims on Stockwells s
payment to the company of 1,2OO,-
600.
A feature of the recent election in
Illinois was, that in twenty-nine coun-
ties women were candidates for County
Superintendent of Schools; in eleven
counties women were elected.
Two banks, the Duquesne Savings
and the East Liberty Bank, suspended

The DAILY HERALD has
nearly 20 UeLE the circu-
Iation Of either contempo-
rary paper published in Los
Angeles. As an advertising
medium It Is consequently Of
DOUBLE their value.

THE Press of Santa Barbara was
very angry recently, because a publi-
cation was made in the HERALD con-
cerning an application for an appro-
priation from Santa Barbara county
to send East the Press. Now, what
was slanderous in our quotation is not
known, no more than is known what
was discreditable in the application.
No doubt Santa Barbara county would
be repaid ten fold for any appropria-
tion it might see fit to make In this
direction; and the Press certainly had
every right to look to its own interest
and that of the county.
