The yronged husband b,azed away with his

the intended marks, although they caused
the elopers TO drop into the bed OF the
wagon for safety. The old mans horses,
tired out with their long journey to town
and back, were unable to continue at the
rate TO which they had been inpelled, and
finally gave out. The fugitives were, thus
soon lost sight of, but when the old man

TWO INDIANA BANKS WcTIMIZED,

NEW YORK, September 27.-John s. Tut
tie has mode an assignment without pref
erenees, to Samuel W. Jackson, Of Schenec-
tady. Mr. Tuttle, since his retirement from
business as o leather merchant, has had an
Office with Alonzo Fellett, the note broker,
who failed on Saturday. When he left the
leather trade he was reputed to be worth
between $500, 900 and $4O0,0O0 Upon en-
tering Follett's office, he began buying COM
mercial and other paper, which he endorsed
and sold to banks and others for an ad-
vance upon the purchase price, his indorse-
ment ii
Increasing the Value or the Paper.
He also indorsed, for a consideration, the
paper of some OF FOlletrs customers, aud
Of late be has made notes OF his own,
which, indorsed by his former business
partner, Jacob Van Wagner, have been used
BY Follett in his business. He has also
been interestedin grain speculation. Mr
L. Z. Chittenden, Tuttle's attorney, said
to-day that Nr. Tuttle had found he was
on very large amount OF Mr.. FOlletts
paper, which he could not pay. The as
signment covered all his property, as he
had no desire to
Keep Back Anything
from his creditors. Mr.. Crittenden did not
care to state the total amount of paper to
which Mr.. Tuttle had put his name, but
said it was much more than $SoO,OOO. Mr..
Tuttle does not know who holds this paper,
but, OF course, he knows the total amount.
In regard to the assets, Mr.. Tuttle had
stated about ten days ago that he then con-
sidered himself worth $350,0OO. 1t was
currently reported to-day that the amount
of Follett's paper which Mr.. Tuttle en-
dorsed would
Each Nearly sI.O0O,0OO.
This is, however, regarded as q contin-
gent liability, against which stands what
ever Mr.. Fullett's estate may realize, Since
tOlett's failure the banks and Others inter
,Sted in bis estate have been most dcSirOus
Df knowing TO what extent the two retired
merchants had Endorsed paper for Follett
and his customers. The belief has been
general that their complica tions with Fol-
lett would result as it had in the case of
Mr. Tuttle. Mr.. Tuttle is partner of Fol-
lett in the Bloomington, H., nursery,
which is valued at about $l25, 900, and was
attached last week bya member of Richard
son, Coynton & Co.
