Toplcs of the Town

PlrTsBuRG, March 27.-The failure of c. P.
Markles' Sons, paper manufacturers, is
the principal topic in commercial circles
to-day AS stated last night, their liabili-
ties are about $500 900, and assets close to a
million. MIR. Krider, chief book.keeper,
followed Captain Markle to Chicago, by re-
quest of the latter's brother, and succeeded
without much difficulty in persuading him
to make an assignment. Markle Of.
fered no explanation for his con-
duct beyond stating he was
tired and wanted rest. He had been drink
ing and was still under the influence of
of liquor. He made no offer to return the
money, although acquainted with the fact
that his action had ruined the firm. AS
the money was his own it cannot be taken
from him in any legal way, and for that
reason no proceeding will be instituted
against him. AS near as can be learned, he
took with him $50, 900 of the firms money.

Decline in whisky.

CINCINNATI, March 27.-Whisky has de-
clined cents by order of the manager OF
the whisky pool. The action was accom-
panied by a rumor of the dissolution of the
pool, but President Meter says there is no
cause for trouble; that the pool is as strong
now as ever; that the disastrous
failures which have occurred of late,
together with the decentralization in
Kentucky, makes the existence of the pool
more important than ever. IL is the only
safety of the business so long as cattle are
in the stables. He attributes the decline to
the fall in corn, and says he has thought
S1.li too high for some time, The pool
only extends to the price of high wines,
leaving spirits and other goods su biect to
such tluctuaton as the manufacturers
choose.

THE CnRrsrrE COMPANY.
Suit Started to FOreclOse Mortgage
ON the Mines for a. 900.

Suit Started to FOreclOse Mortgage
IN the Mines for 10000.
The owners Of the mines at Mineral
Hill, John Spencer, John McCabe, J. G.
Crombie. Amos Plummer md VIM. Flem-
ing, who had sold the property 10 the
Christie Company, began suit in the Dis
trict Court Thursday against that COM
pany and M. d. Munger. P. D. Barker
and H. G.. CAtlin to foreclose mortgage in
default Of payment of $50, 900, in the form
Of two notes of SAC, 900 each, which fell
due Jan. 1 and July l, 1883, with interest
on the same at six per cent per annum.
Coupled with the suit an injunction is
prayed for to stop the taking out of ore
from the mine until Q settlement is
reached. The $50, 900 is q balance only,
as a considerable sum has already been
paid on the purchase. 1t is possible that
an adjustment may be reached whereby
the suit against the Christie Company will
be dismissed. Eighty thousand dollars Is
a large sum Of money to raise, and the
purchasers find some difficulty in realizing
1t, as they are not all individually wealthy.
A majority Of them, however, are men Of
large means, and they are anxious to re-
tain the property, which, under the recent
management. has been turning out 30
Handsomely, and which, had il not been
for the unfortunate freeze up last Win
ter forcing the mill to close down,
would have gone far towards pay
ing itself out of debt. These gem
tlemen are satisfied with the invest
ment, but are not disposed to cramp them
selves in a single venture by putting up
$40, 900 each. They have put themselves
in communication with q third party, al
Eastern gentleman Of great wealth, who ia
to some extent Interested with them, and
who, 1t is expected, will join them in ad-
vancing the sum required to relieve the
property of it's embarrassment and buy 1t
outright. The trouble into which the
Mineral Hill mines have fallen is very
much to be regretted, for they we're open
ing out splendidly, and it was the opinion
of the best informed persons that the camp
there would soon again prove itself as rich
as it ever had been. The showing has been
go good that the development OF the prop |
erty is assured into whosesoever hands II
may ultimately fall. The delay involved
in the suit is to be regretted chiefly. how
ever. because its merits are not easily ex-
planned to the satisfaction Of capitalists,
who are often over-sensitive, and among
whom every bslk in q mining enterprise
gives it and the country in which it is car
ried ON q "black eye." We shall never
theless hope for . resumption Of work at
Mineral Hill by a removal Of financial i'm
pediments in the near future. II We are
disappointed in seeing the recent bright
prospects OF that camp realized all we can
do will be to take the medicine with as
little grinning as possible.
