PALEsTINE. Jan. H.-lSpecial The sew
eral failures that have occurred Lcre lately
have caused u very unsettled feeling amor &
merchants. 1t is admitted now that he
worst is over. Business this season in Pal
estine has been duller than ever before,
and the merchants have had all they could
do TO make both ends meet. The invento-
nv of ]. G. McCintock's stock Saturday
fancy goods, etc, amounts mp TO over
SO 600. There is an attachment for ~ OOO
IN favor of Conductor Oregon, OF the Inter
national, and other claims, amounting in
all TO about $4,000. 1t is hardly probable
that the stock will bring more than one-
third the price inventorisI. @. A. Thomas,
who gave up his drug stcre to some
Hot Springs parties seems to have got out
OF his difficulties by simply turning over
his store ard contents 10 his principal
creditor.
The Blumsnthal Brothers are making An
effort to get back into their grocery busi-
ness, and their offsr Of thirty cents on the
dollar may probably be accepted. they
owe over $4,000 and some New York firms
appear backward in giving them a release
at the thirty cent figure.
Mr.. ha,oney, who closed up his tsloon,

La the meantime those who have debtors
in Palestine are, II Ia presumed, waiting TO
see who will MAKE the next failure.

The Press aud Dakotsisn misunder.

Our contemporary has fallen into Q
strange error The Pioneer has not for

western Dakota wanted it. The Pioueer
IL not go blind 'ss the Yankton Press rep.
resents. 1t will not even claim that
every man in western Dakota hes yet At

him to realize the advantage to the ter
ritory, and especially the western half.
that would follow division on the Mis-.
sour river. ,et
The Pioneer doubtless means that por.
ton Of western Dakota north of the 46th
parallel. The Black Hills have certainly
repeatedly expressed q desire for di. islon
upon that parallel. :

New York Letter in Philadelphia Record.
1t is something of novelty to have the first
burst of financial thunder and lightning make
victims of three bank presidents, as in the
present case. Yet three more dissimilar men
than Messrs. Seney, Fish and Emo could not be
found Seney is miniature Vanderbilt in rail
road building and wrecking, but he has also
managed to get himself much more extensively
advertised as a wholesale philanthrophist. The
Methodist brethren have heretofore used his
name as q by-woId. and he has stood them in
good stead the legitimate successor of the late
Uncle Daniel Drew, of church and Wall street
fame. Mr.. Emo was domestic man. educated
to society and club life, but caring little for it,
and finding his only excitement outside of strictly
business duties in flying his kites in Wall street.
His fathers fortune made it easy for him to risk
millions change in the stock market. Fish
is the oldest of the three unfortunate bank
presidents; but notwithstanding his age he was
a Sybarite in his ways, and strange stories are
told of wild doings in the luxurious apartments
he inhabited over his bank offices. Rumor says
that these rooms were dazzling dream. of ORR
entail splendor in their appointments, and were
centre of attraction for the beauties of the
ballet. In fact, this was no secret to Mr.. Fish's
associates. but it does not seem to have disturbed
their confidence in his powers as q successful
fnancier.

my GOD, I'M A CONVICT"
A Railroad Clerk Who Made False Entries in
His Cash Account.

ERIE, Pa. May lS-Have you communicated
with your family. sr2" asked Judge Galbraith of
a prisoner awaiting sentence in court to day.
The culprit was refined and weil-educated
young man. He said he had not nor did he pro
pose to-. He had given his name and other par
ticulars because he had an objection to giving
untruthful answers to the court questions. He
preferred to expiate his crime in silence and
would suffer anything rather than his disgrace
should be known to them. The prisoner was
Brooks Hadley, the son of wealthy boot and
shoe manufacturer of Stoneham, Mass. and
the sonin law of the Connecticut millionaire,
Elisha Baldwin. About four years ago this
young man came a stranger to Erie. Among
those upon whom he made a good impression
was William L. Scott, the railroad magnate and
millionaire, who after brief acquaintance
offered Mr.. Hadey position of trust i'll his
service. The young gentleman was placed
where it was part of his duties to make large
disbursements of money. few weeks ago 1t
was discovered that false entries had been made
in his cash accounts. Investigation revealed
the fact that a systematic emhezzement had
been practced after the first month Of his serv-
ice amounting to thousands of dollars. He
was arrested, and, with seeming Indifference to
his fate, pleaded guilty. His chief desire since
his confinement has been to be sent to the pen
irentiary without delay, which is accounted for
by fears expressed that some of his family,
especially his wife, would hear of his where
abouts and come here to confront him. His
anxiety on this score probably arose from the
fact that young lady of good family, believing
him single, had promised him her hand, and
was making preparations for her marriage.
Judge Galbraith regretted the necessity of hav-
ing to consign a man of such promise to the
State prison, but sentenced him to two years
separate and solitary confinement with hard
labor Mr.. Hadley was handcuffed and marched
to the place where the rest of the sentenced
prisoners were awaiting transportation to
Allegheny. MY God, am I then convict
repusive featured burglar From papers and
letters discovered by the officers who searched
his lodgings it would appear that he is
graduate of Yale.
