A Heavy Failure.

PITTSBURGH, Pa, April II.
Great excitement was created here yes
terday over the announcement that the we'll
known and generally supposed to be finan-
cially solid iron-pipe manufacturing firm of
James Marshall & Co. had made an
assignment for the benefit of their
creditors to George j. Whitney,
of this city, and that their liza
bilities would reach fully 1900, 900, while
their assets would fall short Of this about
$3.50, 900. The news that the assignment had
had been made spread like wildfire, and a
short time thereafter was the whole topic
of conversation in commercial and financial
circles. The cause of the failure was q too
reckless speculation in pig-iron. Four years
ago James Marshall, the senior member of
the firm, became imbued with the idea
that heavy advance in pig-iron would
take place in the near future, and he COM
menced purchasing extensively of that arti-
Gle. Higher prices did not come. but he
continued to buy heavily, thoroughly conf
dent that he would soon realize largely, but
IN this he was wofully disappointed. Just
when the market began to look up the long
strike Of last year set in, and this
was followed by period of dullness, which
was augmented by the uncertainty in regard
to the action Congress would take on the
tariff question. The passage of the bill did
not improve trade, and for months the con-
Germ has been borrowing money on the i'm
mense stock of iron it had in the warehouse
of the Union Storage Company. Finding
that failure was inevitable, and that the
best they could do they could only stave off
the crash for time, they concluded yester-
day to make an assignment, and the deeds

A Singular Romance.
BALTIMORE, April II

BALTIMORE, April 10.
1t seldom happens in real life that young
lady three years after being enveloped in
her burial shroud and placed in a coffin as
dead becomes bright and happy bride, yet
such a singular romance has just been de-
veloped here.
A few evenings ago occurred the marriage
of Miss Mary Griffith, daughter of the late
John A. Griffith, former prominent mer-
chant of this city, and Mr.. Vivian Neal.
The bride is a beautiful young lady of
about twenty-One summers, and for the last
two seasons belle in Baltimore society.
Three years ago when the young lady was
residing in Cincinnati she had terrible fall
down flight of stairs and received injuries
which were considered fatal. Several prom
inent physicians called to see her, and
pronounced her case hopeless. One
day the young girl grew much worse, fell
into a cOmatOse state, and, as it was thought,
died. The body was prepared for burial and
exposed for two days in acasket TO the view
of friends. The day of the funeral arrived,
and, at the appointed time, the carriages and
hearse drove up to the door. just as the
coffin was being closed it was noticed that
the life-like appearance of the supposed
corpse became more pronounced, and there
were slight signs of returning vitality. A
physician was called, and after an hour OF
so Miss Griffith returned to consciousness.
The solemn gathering was turned into one OF
Joy. The young girl recovered rapidly, and
has since been in better health than ever
before

The Postal M8ney.O System.

WASHINGTON, April II.
The notifications made in the postal
money-order system authorized by Congress
at its last session are to 60 into effect about
September 1. The act left it discretionary
with the Postmaster-General as to the tine
when the new rates should begin, but speci-
fed that it should be within six months from
the approval of the measure by the Prest
dent, which was given March 8. The six
months limit will expire September s,
though it is found impracticable to make the
proposed changes before the first of that
month. The new law provides for postal
notes" for sums less than five dollars, which
are to cost three cents. The fees for money
orders of greater amounts are also reduce'
quite largely.
