A LETTER was received in Chicago on
the Esd from correspondent in Europe
who had just interviewed D. D. Spencer,
late president of the bankrupt state saw
ings institution. Spencer and his wife
are living quietly at Connstadt, Wurtem-
berg, Germany. Spencer denies having
embezzled any money, but charges the
failure of the bank to the dishonesty of
the original stockholders who only paid
in one.tenth of the capital stock and then
banked on their notes as assets. He says
he only took $4,000 with him when he
left Chicago, having raised that amount
on his life insurance. He wants to re-
turn to Chicago, and will do so as soon
as the indictment for embezzlement is
removed. At all events he intends going
to Canada in the spring if his wife's
health permits. They make no efforts
to conceal their Whereabouts.
A PEORIA, Ill, special telegram of the
10th to the Chicago Journal says: The
failure of Thomas Neill, the great local
livestock operator, is the only theme of
conversatio here. Mr.. Neilrs continued
absence causes considerable uneasiness
among his friends and creditors. This un-
easiness developed yesterday afternoon
into positive alarm, and there was
a mad rush of his credi-
itors to secure themselves. Suits were
begun; old deeds and mortgages byth
score, that had been held as collaterals,
were filed for record; attachments v ere
levied. and creditors, constables and law
yers were flying about in great haste.
Mr.. Neill's continued absence from the
city makes anything like an estimate of
his liabilities almost an .impossibility
From claims already made public, and
from other debts for which tits believed
he is liable, i: is safe to put his failure at
100000. It may possibly ex.
coed this sum. The national banks
here are all heavy ere d.
tors, but they are abundantly secured by
mortgages on real estate and other col
laterals, which can be realized on with
out much delay. The worst feature
about the failure is the fact that Mr..
N ill keeps himself away from the city.
Nothing has been heard from him since
last Sunday, at which time he was in
Chicago. He sent his wife home that
night, saying that he would follow on
Tuesday. His family claim to know
nothing of his Whereabouts. There are
those who assert that he will never re-
turn. This course on his part is losing
him any sympathy that he might other
wise have received.

is to succeed him, and that E. B. Martin

TREASURER G1LF1LLAN announces that
new United States notes can no longer
be furnished from the Washington Office
tor bankers drafts, as has been the
custom for the last four months. This

must be cancelled and the land reserved
for entry under the laws especially an-
plicable to mineral lands. The issue
was presented by the case of Smith Scog

the title to a tract of 1900 acres of land
in Camden, Arkansas district, which was
purchased from the government at pri-
