THE DANVILLE RIOTS.
The Result of the Investigation of the
Committee of Forty
Fully Refutes the Statements Made by
Malone I'm His Circular.

DANvILLE, November 2l.-The Com
mittse of Forty, appointed to investigate
the facts connected with the riots of the
Sd instant, met at Orleander on the 18th
instant and appointed proper sub-com-
mittees. All persons having information
relative to the matters being investigated
are publicly requested to appear before a
subcommittee and testify. The sub-com-
mittee for this city has regularly attended
to its duties from the morning of the 18th
to the evening of the 2lst instant, during
which time thirty-seven witnesses were
examined. Said witnesses for the post
part were known to the committee per-
sonally, and represented all classes
and vocations. They are intelli-
gent and thoroughly reliable. The
committee makes careful and impartial
review of all the facts connected with the
riot. After speaking OF the ill-feeling ex-
isting between the blacks and the whites
the committee state that the negroes were
the aggressors. The report adds that two
DAYS before the election, circulars signed
by prominent citizens and leaders of
both political parties were issued guar
antceing every person, without re-
gard to color or party, the free and
full right of voting. No violence, threat
or intimidation whatever was shown to-
ward negro or Coalition voters, but on the
contrary such voters were repeatedly as
sured by citizens, policemen and military
officers sent to Danville by the Governor
that they would be protected in their
right, and to vote as they chose. Election
day was quiet, without any disturbance or
difficulty at any precincts or elsewhere in
town, and the election itself was honestly
conducted and free and fair in every re-
spect. Negroes as body deferred from
voting under the advice and command OF
the Coalition ticket without hinderance
from any quarter.

chased the site for new manufacturing
town on the Tennessee river near Tuscum-
hia, Ala. II is to be known as Sheffield,
and is surrounded by inexhaustible coal
and iron fields. This is the fourth at
tempt at founding cities made in the
South in the'past twelve years. The first
was made in the same State and has
proven Il great success. Admission, the
model city of the South, is the result, and
in twelve years it has grown out of the
wilderness to be place Of seven or more
Thousand people, and worth several mil
lions of dollars. Sixty miles from Annis-
ton is the city of Birmingham, also in
Alabama II is the work of twelve years,
and has population of $4,000, and is
doubling up every five years. Its growth
is enormous and its future fabulous.
Roanoke, in the Shenandoah Valley, laid
out only five years ago, is now a place of
5000 inhabitants, and is thriving at a rate
. that deies the West to surpass. And all
this in the country in which Malone
would have the world believe the people
are engaged in murder and arson, and
are thritless and shiftless assassins.

The Siiuer King will be produced with du-

King is repeating its great success of last

not surprising, however, that a drama
which ran for over 100 nights at Wallack' s,

CLOTHING AND FURNISHING GOODS.
j. A. Austin a. Co.. Manufacturers and
Wholesale Dealers, No. 323 Main
Street.

The necessity for large house, selling
goods here and shipping direct from the
factory, or from this point, as the buyer
prefers, has induced J. A. Austin & Co. to
90 into the business on very extensive
scale. Their large store, filled with the
greatest variety of clothing and furnishing
goods, is at 323 Main street, where all in
tending purchasers should take a look and
be convinced that orders can be filed here
at so slight an advance on Eastern factory
prices as will justify them in purchasing
in Memphis. Messrs. Austin d Co. have
been in the clothing business here for a
long time, are well posted as to the wants
OF the retail trade, are aware that goods
must be sold cheap, shipped promptly and
in good condition. They are doing an ex-
tensive business, and are determined to
supply clothing and furnishing goods that
in grade and price cannot be excelled any
where. Besides the Memphis store, they
do business at 507 and 500 Broadway,
New York, and their factory is located at
Plainfield, n. J. They have all the IA
cilities for supplying retail dealers.

HEAVY TRANSFORMS.
A Large Portion Of indianapolis Flood
ed-LOss Over n Quarter of n
Million Dollars.

INDIANAPoLIs,I IND, November 21.-There
have been continued heavy rains in this
vicinity since last evening. All streams
have risen rapidly during the day. Rogues
run overfiowed its banks tonight, and a
large portion of the northeastern part of
the city is under water, covering the first
floors of hundred small dwelling
houses. Lumber yards furniture factories,
and the coal-yards suffer heavily. At 8
O'Clock the water was three feet in the
oGice OF w. b. Dickson & Co.'S lumber
yard. The loss can not be estimated now,
but will probably aggregate S250,000. The
railroad tracks east of the Union Depot are
covered with water. The train arriving
about 9 o'clock was unable to reach the
depot. The new sewer on East Washing
ton street is badly damaged. The rain
stopped about 8 O'Clock, and there are in
dications of clearing.
A bridge at Cartersburg, on the Van
dalia railroad, seventy miles west of this
city, was washed away tonight by high
water. The track of the JefIersonville,
Madison and indianapolis railroad is COW
cred with water near Franklin, and trains
are unable to pass. Telegraph commune
cation south and west is seriously inter
rupted by the rain and flood.

A FINANCIAL CRASH.
The Mississippi Valley Bank Of Vieks.
burg in the Hands OF an
Assignee.
The Cause of the Failure-What the
Officers Say-Great Excitement
Over the Break.

VIcKsBURG, MISS, November 2l.--Like
an electric shock was the announcement
on the streets this morning that the Mis-
sissippi Valley Bank had closed its doors,
and its affairs placed in the hands of Geo.
S. Irving as receiver. This was first made
public by card posted on the door, read
ing, "Bank Close / in the Hands of Re-
ceiver." The news spread like wildfire,
and in short time the building was filed
with people seeking information. 1t
appears that the firm of A. X.
Bonham & Co., of st. Louis, of
which George NJ. Klein is the
principal partner, had become seriously
involved through speculation in grain fu-
lures by Mr.. Bonham. On last Saturday
evening Mr.. Klein sent John F. Halpin to
St. Louis for the purpose OF looking into
the affairs OF that firm. Not being able to
get any satisfactory information through
Mr.. Bonham, it was not until yester-
day that Mr.. Klein learned that Bonham
& Co. were responsible for an enormous
sum due on future contracts. AS soon as
adopt the course he has taken for the pur-
pose of protecting the banks creditors. In
the act of assignment Mr.. Klein has en-
deavored to protect, as far as pos
sible, all of his poorer class OF de-
positors, the most of the preferred
creditors being depositors in the
savings department of the bank.
Mr.. Klein has private interests
in this and other States, among which is
an interest in the houses of John F. Hal
pin & Co. and Gus Asher, of this city
an interest in J. J. Powers's o.l-mill and
the steamers Issaquena and Tributary, is
very largely interested in the city gas
works and owns several pieces of very
valuable real estate in this city. All OF
these, besides the property owned by his
father, John A. Klein, ST., has been placed
| in the hands of the assignee. Mr..
! Klein thinks the assets of the
bank, and of himself and father will more
than pay his liabilities. The failure OF the
bank will also involve the house of j. F.
fialpin & Co., of Vicksburg, and possibly
some other Vicksburg houses will be more
or less affected by it. The failure caused
more excitement and comment in the city
than any other business event that ever
occurred here. Numerous kilograms were
also received from all parts of the country
in reference to the suspension. The bank
officials gave everyone prompt eXplana-
tions OF the causes Of the failure, the
status of the bank and prospects for set
tlement. Liabilities, 100000; assets fully
as much, but slow to realize on; amount
due to preferred creditors, 1863, $50.

charge of intrigue and bargain, in Il subse-
queut letter said Gen. Jackson could
mot, think, have received this impress
sion until Mr.. Clay and his friends had
actually elected Mr.. Adams President and
mir. Adams had appointed Mr.. Clay Sec
''retary of State. After these events had
"transpired il may be readily conjectured
I'm what manner my communication
might have led him into the mistake. |
deeply deplore that such has been the
effect" Mr.. Clay had not been on terms
of intimacy with Gen. jackson for some
years before the election of Adams. As
tar back rs 1919 he voted for the resolu-
ton of ccnsure on Gen. Jackson for his
conduct i'm the Seminole war, and this
alienated him from the General Besides,
in 1924 Clay was very free and emphatic in
his statements that he never would or
could vote for Gen. Jackson for President.
Mr. Clay, when his nomination for Secre-
tarv of State was sent to the Senate, asked
for 4 committee of inquiry TO investigate
the charges, ii il were deemed necessary,
and when this was acted upon every Sem
ator, Gen. Jackson included, was silent as
To them. IL may also he added that
Gen. Jackson was among the first To con-
gsatulatc Mr.. Adams on his accession TO
the Presidency. When the vote of the
House Ter President was counted it stood
ior Adams thirteen States; Maryland and
Illinois, which had given popular majori-
ties for Jackson, voting for him, and also
Kentucky, Ohio and Missouri, which had
voted for Clay; Crawford received iour
States and Jackson seven States, notwith-
standing eleven States had given him
their popular majority at the election.
. Our correspondent has got rather
mixed in this. At a Presidential levee
held after the vote OF the House was an
nounccd Mr.. Jackson, who had lady on
his arm, met Mr.. Adams, who was alone.
After a moments hesitation they APP
preached each other, and Gen. jackson,
reaching out his arm, said: Glow do you

fair; hope You are very well, sir?' Mr.
Adams made a formal answer in his chiii-
aug way and passed IN.
