Memphis daily appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1847-1886, 1873-07-25

WHILE we in Memphis are beginning
to recuperate from the effects of IN
nun bered eslamities, occurring through
the last ten months, in st. Louis and
Illinois they are succumbing TO moneta-
~ stringency and cessation in business.
The Vandalia road has discharged two
hundred hands, consequent upon fall
ing of in traffic amountingto quite one
third OF that enjoyed at the same time
last year. This is due in great part,
however, to the tariff. The
st. Louis Times, Of the twenty
third, complains loudly of the
state Of trade, and mentions the
failure Of Whitaker & Gray, remsrking
that "every failure that has occurred in
this city, so far, is attributable TO rash
speculative enterprises-men and firms
embsrking in these entirely beyond
their means. Some Of the speculations
bear the stamp Of downright dishonesty,
and a strong effort will be made TO
punish the parties who have been en-
gagged in them. We have only to regret
that unless business is done strictly more
on the cash principle than heretofore,
there will be no end to the financial en-
banassments that will follow.
Memphis daily appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1847-1886, 1873-07-25

THE bObbeTy in Manitoba, occasioned
10y an attempt to kidnap the bogus lord
who robbed Jay Gould Of some Of that
gentleman's money stolen from the
English me stockholders, has dwin-
died TO a most contemplate case of
blackmail by one Mckenzie, who, per-
haps, remembered the turn his Highland
fOrefathers had for that sort Of thing,
and thought he would try his hand at it.
1t is a bad case for Mckenzie so far, but
there is nothing in it worth the expense
and trouble OF telegraphing and print
ing. Judging by what We have had so
far, the Canadians and Americans en-
gagged in this business are about six Of
one and half-a-dozen of the other.

Captain J. Hamp. Chamberlayne, edi-
tor of the Petersburg Lnder, writing
from Norfolk, under date of July 18th.
says: "Of the familiar matters touching
Norfolk and the section around it, i
need not speak to the readers of the In
dee. Politics is attracting much atten-
ton, and men in Norfolk, of course,
speak Of Mr.. GOode; but most people /
have met consider the contest narrowed
down until it Is between Withers and
kemper, and espe cielly the latter.n
In Aceomae county, Mr.. Lewis c. H.
Finney has been unanimously nOmin-
ated as the Conservative candidate for
the State senate.
The Richmond correspondent of the
Petersburg Inder says Mr.. Raleigh It
Daniel, Of that city, is a prominent can
didate for the rney-generalship.
A correspondent writing from Vue de
PEau says: "The Fredericksburgers
here generally express a preference for
Witbers. There is no one, on the other
hand, from Richmond. who is not enthu-
siastic for Kemper. The ablest LAWYER
and politician mot from Richmond I
have yet met at VUe de PEau, remarked
TO me to-day, Colonel Wfthers has no
warmer friend than am, and my Deo-
pie are exceedingly anxious to
place him IN office, but ]
have come to the conclusion that Cen
eral Kemper is the more available can
didate for governor. 1 want success -
The Richmond correspondent Of the
Louisville Courier. Journal fsuppOsed to
be L. Q. Washington writes that paper:
"Space is left for line only about poll
tics. Kemper, almost certainly, will be
the Conservative nominee for governor,
and Hughes the Radical. Wise's letter
has fallen fiat, and UnderwOOd's indOrse-
ment Of him is as good as SO much WOO

Memphis daily appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1847-1886, 1873-07-25

THE failure Of the Brooklyn trust
company proves to have been the result
Of the speculations CT a ring who con-
trolled and managed the concern to suit
themselves. Like any other pack of
thieves they stole the money deposited
in the bank by people who had a blind
confidence in their integrity as officers
and directors, and then tried to with
draw from it. The suicide of the presi-
dent, Mills, afforded them for q few days
an avenue OF escape, but close and con-
