Reported Bank Troubles said to be
without Real Foundation.

WAAh0uN hG1A EOAAA1aAAoAs
CHICAGO, Jan. 21.-The rumoTs said to
be in circulation in New York of trouble
with the Fourth National Bank and two
other national banks of this city, have very
slight foundation in fact. Il is true that a
small draft of the Fourth National was
thrown out in New York yesterday, but
more than sufficient funds to meet not
only that draft, but any others outstanding,
were on the way to New York, and yester-
day an additional sum, more than sufficient
to cover any possible contingency, was sent
to its New York correspondent. So far as
reports Of trouble with any other banks are
concerned, the closest inquiry in the best
informed quarters show them to be without
foundation.
Another Contradiction,
Bankers and other business men of this
city, have been in receipt to-day of hume
rOus kilograms from New Iork, stating that
reports and rlImOrs were in circulate n, to
the effect, that there was an impending
financial crisis or panic here. These re-
ports were doubtless set afl0at for purpose
as there is not and has not bSen the slight
est foundation for them. The suspension
Tuesday, Of the Cook County National
Bank, did not create any excitement.

About .. m. on the 93d, the steamer
John Kyle took fire while lying at the WI arf

and the burning boat was cut loose and drift

which also took fire. From the BodInann
the flames communicate to the Exporter,
and the three boats, ablaze from stem
to stern. were blown by the high wind
into the middle Of the stream. where they
burned to the waters edge. 1t Is believed
that every person on the Kyle got safely or
before she was cut adrift. The other two
steamers had large number Of passengers
and spectators on board when they were sent

one hundred. The boats ofthe L.. steamer

How Hot Iron May be Handled.

miraculous. While he was at Naples, he
attracted the attention of Prof. Sementem,
who narrowly watched all his operations,
and endeavored to discover his secret

Hon. ]. II. Whitehead left Chey-
enne about three months ago, on n
prospecting trip and telegruphed his
arrivalin Helena. Montana, yesterday.
The small party OF which he was n
member visited the Sweetwater mines,
then crossed the valleys OF the Little
and Big Wind rivers, to the Owl
Creek range of mountains, n spur put
ting down in All easterly direction
from the Wind river range of the
Rocky Mountains to the Big Horn
river, for a distance Of eighty miles.
From this range the parties pushed
northward, prospecting as they went,
TO another spur putting down also
from the Wind River range TO the Big
Horn river, called the Panther noun
tains, distant from the Owl Greek
range about 100 miles. They visited
the National Park, in the northwest
corner Of Wyuming-the wonder land
Of the world-where beautiful placid
lakes, frightful canyons, dashing tor
rents, VOLCANOES. mud springs and eX-
traordinary geysers meet the view OF
the beholder at every turn he takes
through the country. Although the
party has had to encounter many diff
culties and overcome obstacles every
day, there has bee some reward no
doubt, for all the hardships
tered in the varied scenes through
which it has passed, to its members.
It is stated that some very valuable
discoveries have been made by Judge
Whitehead's party on this trip which,
we trust, is true /; for II fortune falls to
the lot of man, none deserve its smiles
more than the brave adventurous pio-
neers. whose footsteps track a path
through unknown wilds to mines OF
hidden wealth.
