BAD BUSINESS FAILURE.

Lawrence s Martin, Chicago, Proprietors
of"TOlu Rock and Rye" Up for Over
$500, 1000, With Doubtful Assets of Not
More than 81 o ,0OO-Failure of Boston
Broker in Canned Goods for Near $780,
600 With Assets of Not More than $780,
900.
CHICAGO, May 14.--Six judgments, by con-
fession, were entered to-day in the circuit
court, against Lawrence & Martin, whole
sale and retail liquor dealers, Ill Madison
avenue, for total amount of s57, 1855, in favor
of A. s. Trude, lawyer, this city; Chas. s.
Bush, New Orleans; and Michael
J. Blessing, Durfman, Memphis.
These judgments represent but a
small part of the indebtedness, which the firm
say is between two and three hundred thou
sand. Their assets consist in patents on a
medical compound, Zulu Roekand Rye $780,
600; stocks of whisky, $40. 900 to So 200; and
banks are their creditors for considerable
amount, but are secured by ware
house certificates. They also owe
small sum in New York and Louisville
and other cities. The firm started in 1877
with $4,000 to 1000 capital, which they
claim to have sunk. They have done large
business, amounting last year to nearly half a
million dollars. The chief causes Of their
failure were heavy and Improbable advertis-
ing of their patents, losses incurred while
running the Jocky club track and the sinking
of nearly 1000 in their New York branch,
which has been drag from the beginning.
BosroN, May 10.---The Journal says whole
sale dealers in canned goods are greatly excit-
ed to-day, over the failure of s. j. B. Lincoln,
broker IN canned goods, meats, etc. The fail
ure is very heavy, the liabilities IN some quar-
tiers, estimated as high as S750,O0O, although
one of the creditors has stated his belief that
the amount will not exceed 100000. Lincoln,
something like year ago, suddenly branched
out, opening an office in New York, and
going largely into dealings with a
well known Chicago broker, engaged
in supplying the mining country with canned
goods. 1t is stated speculation is at the bot
tom of the failure and it will be impossible for
some days to arrive at anything like the cor
rect liabilities. Nearly if not quite every
house in this business in the city is involved,
and the meetings of creditors, dates not known,
promises to be very largely attended and some
what lively.

JUDGE CORNELL.
One of Minnesota's Prominent Citizens
Passing Away.

RAISING Away.
Hon. Francis R. E. Cornell, associate justice
Of the supreme court of the State of Mime
sofa, is lying at the point of death at his home
in Minneapolis, and will probably have passed
from the reality of this world to the uncer
tainty of the future before these lines meet
the readers eye. He has been dangerously i'll
for some time past, and yesterday morning
his attending physicians came to the conclu-
sion that the only hope of saving his life was
in performing an operation. His disease
was an aggravated case of stone in the blad-
der, and yesterday an operation to remove 1t
was performed by Drs. Hand, of st. Paul,
Kimball, of Minneapolis, and Fender, OF Chi
cago. 1t was discovered that an abcess had
formed in the bladder, and it was at once seen
that no hope of recovery could be entertained.
He lapsed into state of Inconsistencies
shortly after the operation, and remained in
that condition up to o'clock this morning,
when the GLOBE reporter left his bedside. He
was attended by Drs. Hand and Kim
ball, who were doing all in their
power to revive the spark OF life.
They expressed the opinion, however, that he
would not live to see the light of day. he was
unconscious of pain, and would probably not
be able to recognize any one before death.
Judge Cornell was born in Chenango county,
New York, on the 18th of November, 1921.
He graduated with high honor at Union col
lege in 1912, and was admitted to the bar at
Corning in 1916. In 1852 he was elected to the
New York State Senate from Steuben
county, and represented his district
with signal ability. He came to Min
nesota in the fall of 1854, and took
up his residence in Minneapolis, where he en-
gagged in the practice of law. He was elected
to the legislature in 1861, 1862 and 1865, and
achieved an honorable distinction as an honest
and careful legislator, having been upon the
judiciary committee of the House in each OF
the years indicated. He was elected attorney
general of the State in 1868, and served for six
years, and after YEARS. retirement from office
was nominated and elected as an associate
justice of the supreme court, taking his
seat upon the bench in January, 1875. While
occupying that position he has enjoyed the
esteem of the public and the bar for his judicial
fairness and lmpartiality, and has been notable
for the industry which he has exhibited in
solving knotty legal problems. His opinions
have been characterized by high degree OF
literary merit, as well as by profound knowl-
edge of the law. His death will be sincerely
regretted by the people of the whole State, as
we'll as by large circle of intimate friends
and acquaintance.
Judge Cornell leaves son and daughter,
both of whom are married.

Ne,c York Profess and Predictfon.

NEW YORK, May IA largely attended
meeting of the Anti Monopoly league was
held at Cooper Institute this evening to pro-
test against the confirmation of Stanley
Matthews as justice of the supreme court. E.
L. Chittenden occupied the chair. Resolu-
tions were adopted declaring Stanley Matthews
to be Pacific railroad candidate and
denouncing his confirmation as proof
of a purpose to pack the supreme
court with judges who will reverse its decision
in the granger cases. The resolutions also
view the nominations of Elliot Shepherd,
son-in-law of Vanderbilt and Hon. VIM. FL.
Robertson as alarming proofs of the purpose
and power of of corporate monopolies. Ad-
dresses were made by Maj. J. Haggerty, ex-
Senator Creamer and Mr.. Chittenden.
The Times Washington special says: The
general opinion of Republican Senator's is that
the case of Judge Robertson will be disposed
of during the coming week. All idea of eff
fecting au arrangement looking to his with
drawal has been abandoned and his confirma-
ton is regarded as certain. The
nomination of William E. Chandler to

Robertson VIII be Confirmed.

WASHINGTON, May 14.--It is conceded on
all sides now, that Robertson will be con-
firmed. All talk of any other disposition of
the case has ceased. 1t is understood Conger
will report Robertson to the Senate Monday,
without any recommendation; that the noml-
nation will 90 over until Tuesday, when Conk-
ling, in speech, will state fully his reason
for opposing confirmation; that the vote will
be taken Immediately, without any reply to
Conkling, unless he should attack the admin
istration, which, it is stated, he will not do.
Then the Senate will ask the President if he
has more business, and whenever the Presi-
dent has no more, the Senate will adjourn sine
die. Chandler's nomination will not, Sena-
tors say, consume much time.

Department Neacs- Windom's Refunding
Act.

WASHINGTON, May 14.-There was received
at the loan division of the treasury department
to-day SIS, $40, 400 5 per cent. bonds for con.
tlnuance at 81 per cent, making $50,556, 800
received since the issuance of the secretary's
circular Thursday last. More than hundred
kilograms have been received during the day
from holders of 3 per cents desiring to
extend their bonds, asking for informa-
ton on the subject. The comptroller
of currency, he has already on his hands pa
pers for exchange of 6 per cent. bonds be-
longing to 410 national banks, covering about
forty millions of bonds. This would leave
forty banks to be heard from, having 6, 900
bonds, and these are all believed TO be in the
hands of the secretary. Two hundred and
fifty millions of per cent. registered bonds
may be surrendered and extended. Of this
amount 1853 national banks hold S16S, 216, 600,
nearly all of which the comptroller thinks
will be exchanged during the next month.
The acts of June 20, 1874, and January Ia,
1875, authorized the retirement and reissue of
National bank notes at pleasure of the banks,
subject to the restrictions of law. The circula-
ton was at the highest point December t. 1874,
when it was $685., 1894 ,347. From that date
circulation decreased in volume until the year
1877 the decrease being more than $50, 000 900.
Since that date it has steadily increased.
On November 1, last, in was S343 ,oG0, 900 and
since that time there has been an increase of
more the $4,000, 900, the circulation now being
$751;, nc, 161, which is S315,S1 higher than at
any time since the passage of the free banking
act of January IA, 1875.
The values of exports of petroleum and
petroleum products from the United States
during March, 1881, were S3,2SS, JIG, and dur.
ing March, 1880, S2,37S,34 For the nine
months ending March 81, 1881, S2S,64S, 507

The secretary of the interior has. rendered 6
decision in which he rejects the claim of the
State of Kansas for an alleged deficiency o.
1852 acres of land, which were certified tC
the State in 1882 as double minimum lands, il
adjustment the grant under what is known
as the agricultural college act. This decision
afirms recent decision of the commissioner
of the general land office, from which the
State appealed to the Secretary.

THE GLOBE HOROSCOPE.

Markets.
ESPECIAL Telegram to the Globe.]

CHICAGO, May 14.-Public cables dull and
ouiet. Our cables dull but rather better in
tone. The weather has changed to extreme
warmth, and forcing the crops-which are
making rapid headway-rather too fast. Our
wheat market is lower, but closes little
better than the opening prices, yet with no
real strength and only moderate business.
The outside public are so bearish that they
check any advance. Corn was rather better
with wheat, but lost the advance. We think
the receipts will not be SO large as expected on
account of the poor condition. Oats were
lower-the deal hanged-receipts liberal.
Curb prices: June wheat, S1.02H; corn,

WAsHINGToN,i May Ex-senator Conkling
entered the Republican caucus yesterday rath-

said the caucus had been called without con-
sultatlon with him and was an attempt to de-
feat him by indirect methods. He declared
that Robertson's confirmation would disrupt
and defeat the Republican party in New York;
but said as Republicans were rushing on to
their fate, he washed his hands of the whole
affair.

WASHINGTON, May 1.-THE removal of
Republicans from small postof1ces IN Vir-

considerable stir in that State. Many Virginia
Republicans have been protesting to the Presi-
dent against the Republicans being turned out
of the offices and it is now announced that a
halt has been called, that the President wants
the Republican organization of Virginia
maintained in all its strength and hereafter
Republican postmasters will remain in Office.

Hrs. Ga,7ield's Condition.

WASHINGTON, May 14.-The physicians at
tending Mrs. Garfield say there is to-day a
slight change for the better, but she is still in
a very critical condition. She has constant
fever, not distinctly typhoid, but of that ma
ture, and it will be several days before the
physicians can decide what will be the result
They can only say now that they hope for the
best. The eXertion she vas subject to since
last summer has reduced her system, and the
disease has laid heavy hold upon it. She is
very weak
Statements having been published that the
sanitary condition of the executive mansion is
very bad and that the illness of Mrs. Garfield
is partly attributed to that cause, members of
the senatorial commission on public buildings,
MessrS Rollins, Morrill, and Angus Cameron,
visited the executive mansion to-day and in
speeted the building with view to reporting
its condition to Congress.
DR.. Pope reports tonight, that the symp-
toms of Mrs. Garfeld's disease pointed to a
more favorable aspect, and she has passed a
more comfortable day.
