Yesterday afternoon on the Saratoga eX-

New York last Saturday for that pur-

check on the Mechanics national bank
for an amount sufficient to take up one
hundred and twenty-five thousand dol,
lars in gold, pledged by Ecoles with
the Third national bank as col
lateral for q loan. This clerk, who
hes disappeared, it is believed, ia.
tended to draw the gold and get
away with it, and would have done SO
but for the fact that the bank would
only deliver the gold TO Eccles, he hav-
ing arranged it with the bank never to

personally. As to the dispute between
the banks, that was settled in the first
ten minutes OF business to-day by Ec-
cles giving the Third national bank an
order to deliver the gold to the Ne

on the latter good. This morning the

reported that after q full investigation it

DEATH OF GENERAL BLAIR.
Particulars of the Fatal Event. so Gem
orally Unexpeeied-The Funeral.

ST. LOUIS, July 9.-Genersl Frank P.
Blair, jr., died at half-past eleven o'clock
lat night. Although the general has
been sick a long time, without hope of
recovery, his death was sudden, and at
the same time unexpected.
1t seems that the immediate cause OF
General Blair's death last night was a
fail he received while walking from one
room to another in his house. He had
been out for drive in the afternoon,
returned about i've O'clock, and seemed
to have enjoyed it much, and received
considerable benefit; but while walking
in his room he was attacked with diZzi-
ness and fell, striking his temple against
a piece of furniture, which rendered
him insensible. Medical aid was i'm
mediately called, and every effort made
to restore him to consciousness, but
without success, and at half-past eleven
o'clock he quietly passed away, sur
rounded by all the members OF his fam
lily. His parents have been telegraphed,
and will probably arrive here in time for
the funeral Sunday. The family desire
quiet funeral; but the members of the
OLD First Missouri regiment, of which
General Blair was the first colonel, have
called meeting for tomorrow, and will
probably decide to accompany the re-
mains of their cid commander to his
grave, and other organizations may de-
termine to do likewise.

THE AMERICANS CAN'T BE BEATEN.
LONDON, July 10.-Mr. Hamilton, Of
the Irish team, writes TO the Standard
indoTsing Parsons's letter Of yesterday in
reply to the newspaper criticisms. He
says: i" have shot against the Ameri-
cans both in the United States and Ire
land, and l can say with confidence tn,
there never has been any team in this
country able to beat them. 1 don't
mean that we have not as good
individual shots, but their organ =
iZatiOn is simply perfect. Dis
cipline will always beat sEPeri, r
individual strength in such contests. In
America the Irish made a higher score
than the best they ever made for the
Elcho shield, and yet, although it is
true by accident, were beaten. The fol-
lowing week, when competing for the
individual prizes, they made fifty-tYO
points more than the Americans over
the same course. The Irish score at
DoliymOuLl, on June 29th, was again
better than any they ever made for the
Elcho shields. While the Americans
averaged one hundred and siXty-One, six
teen of which is higher than the best
individual score ever made at Wimble-
don, yet in the AbercOrn Irish match
for the selection of the Irish eight, six
Irishmen headed the list. The Ameri-
cans followed at long intervals. The
letter points to the above statistics as a
proof that the Americans are almost safe
from defeat in shooting against picked
team, while if allowed to compete with
three eights the match would be the
best and most interesting the world has
ever seen.
