Using matter and lost on every paper sold II
cents for the actual paper alone or, in other
words, the plain paper, without . drop Of
Ink on IL, was worth II cents more than It
sold 1t on the streets by the newsboys. Then
add 10 that the immense expense of editing,
accommodating news, setting up the type, and
cost of printing, and you can form some idea
Of what they must receive from advertisers to
make the edition profitable. Some of the
ls4 columns pay $500 column for one issue.

cided to suspend. The last statement showed
the deposits were S2,4l7,0O0. James A.
Halsey is President and Oscar l.. Baldwin
Cashier. Baldwin is considered responsible
for the trouble. The news was thunder
clap, as the Institution was deemed the
strongest in the city and the officers the most
trustworthy, while Baldwin stood high as a
financer. He was arrested as an embezzler
and the government examiner sent for.
New York connection loses nothing, hav-
ing refused to loan money after Baldwin
withdrew his colaterals. Nugent " Co.,
who are involved with the bank, have sus-
pended. Other failures are expected.
1t is stated the only resources of the bank
is the building, worth 5000. The warrant
of arrest charges Baldwin with confessing to
the Board he had fraudulently used two mil
lions of the banks funds. The directors are
sitting with closed doors. The widest ru-
mors are afoat. Nobody but the cashier is
suspected. He had the unlimited confidence
of the Board. The confession was made
because he feared visit of the bank exam
liner. The city and county will lose about
10000 each OF deposits. The Water Board

TYNER's RESIGNATION.
No Reflection Upon His Personal or Official
Integrity,

No Reflection Upon His Personal or Official
Integrity,
First Assistant Postmaster General Tyner
rendered his resignation as the sequel of the
following correspondence
WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 20, 1881.
Hon. Thomas L. james, Postmaster General:
STR enclose herewith, in response to
your letter Of the 18th inst. my resignation
Of the Office of First Assistant Postmaster
General, to be delivered to the President on
the condition that the request for 1t Is not
based upon charges against my official honor
or integrity, especially in connection with the
alleged star-route frauds, either By direct act
or neglect of duty. If such charges have
been made or implied it Is proper that they
should be clearly stated, and that I should
have the opportunity to reply to them. l
believe he and you will approve this sugges-
ton. Very respectfully, your obedient ser
want, JAMES N. TYNER.
The Postmaster General replied as follows:
[Copy.l
WASHINGTON, Oct. 20, 1881.
SIR haye the honor to acknowledge the
receipt Of your resignation as First Assistant
Postmaster General, which have just hand
ed the President. In reply to your inquiry
have to say that the request for your resig-
nation was not based upon any reflection on
your personal or official integrity. Very re-
specially, THOMAS L.. JAMES,
49, :,, Postmaster General.
p The Hon. James N. Tyner.
STATEMENT OF JUDGE TYNER.
The following statement Of Judge Tyner's
side of the case is furnished by him and has
his authority:
Mr.. Tyner says that he has not recently
tried to hold the Office for the sake Of the
place, but only to, protect his reputation. The
President directed that the letter requesting
his resignation should be sent quietly, with
out publicity, upon the representation to him
that the relations existing between the Post
master General and Tyner were unfriendly
and that the latter desired to be relieved.
That statement was correct except that Ty-
ner feared that retirement pending the star
route investigation would expose him to
Misrepresentation and scandal, just as it has
done. The Postmaster General and the late
President both knew Of his fears and both
seemed disposed to protect him. Both knew
that any intimation of his completely therein
or failure of duty Herewith was unjust. The
desire of Mr.. James to have him go out wss
in consequence Of the existence of ill-feeling
between them. Mr.. Tyner thinks it origin
ated with meddlesome persons, and as the
Postmaster General states that the REQUEST
for his resignation was not based upon any
reflections upon his personal or official In
tegrity, It Is evident thatthe honor of neither
was involved.

~2~-r. Bows.


louisville, KY, Oct. 31.-The Courier
Journals Bowling Green dispatch says An
organized effort was made on Friday night to
capture the James brothers in Logan Coun-
ty, near Adairsville. 1t had been rumored
for several days that the robbers were in
that neighborhood. A woman wrote to
Governor Blackburn on the 10th that they
intended to attack the Louisville & Nash
vile railroad at Colesburg soon. Blackburn
received the letter at Yorktown and turned
it over to the railroad authorities, but in
doing this and in organizing several days
were lost. The detectives organized an at
lacking party, which was under the direction
of Hunter, the man who captured Cove
Kennedy. The posse met at Russeville on
Friday evening, sixteen men strong, selected
with special reference to their cool courage,
armed to the teeth with shotguns and pistols.
They arrived at a. m. at the house of
Hites, near Adairsville, where the robbers
were known to have been a few days previ-
Gus. They surrounded the house, but the
birds had flown, being warned in advance.

No Lack Of Rascaiity in the Star Route Bust,

, ness.
WASHINGTON, October 26.-The President
has again asked MacVeagh to remain, be-
cause he warmly admires him and because
he desires to disarn criticism on the Star
route matter. Macveagh is said to have of.
Tended the other Secretaries by his frank
svowal that the President had the right to
choose his own advisers. Macyeagh says
though the Star route suits may fail, 1t will
not be from lack Of great rascality. There
would be evidence enough to send dozen
men to the penitentiary, but the whole moral
weight of the administration was necessary
TO secure conviction. The accused have
plenty Of. money and backing, social and po-
litical, and the press. Juries are inclined to
lean toward the accused In this district. The
President fully understands the matter, and
he hoped he would ELL the highest expecta-
ton of his friends.
