More Bank Troubles.

MILWAUKEE, June 17.-It is rumored
that the Manufacturers Bank is in trouble.
1t is a small concern, and not a member
of the clearinghouse, and has been re-
garded with distrust in financial circles
for some time. Mr.. Condee, the Presi-
dent, has offered to furnish security and
to see that every debt is paid, so that the
depositors will lose nothing. Cashier
Condee says the trouble is owing to a con-
tinuous run ON the bank ever since the
troubles in New York. George P. San
born, receiver of the Manufacturers Bank,
finds the liabilities about S400, 900, and the
assets nominally $500, 900, but cannot
realize on them. Outsiders say they will
scarcely pay so cents on the dollar. No
other banks are affected and no business
houses troubled.
Gathering of the Democratic Claus.
SARATOGA, June 17.-One hundred and
State Convention are here. All the dele
gates are expected this afternoon. The re-
suit of the meeting of the State Committee
tonight is anxiously looked forward to.
The friends OF both Cleveland and Flower
are equally positive in their expressions OF
belief in the success of their candidates.
The main point of the friends OF Cleveland
is to secure the vote of the convention for
him as the State nominee, SO as to send q
solid delegation to vote for him at Chicago.
This will be lone if the unit rule Is adopted
by the convention. The Tammany men
here do not favor that rule, and unless
Kelly's influence be for it, they are likely
to oppose it. The question is likely to
form one of the principal points of the
State Committees deliberations tonight.
A Destructive Fire.
GALVESTON, Tex, June 17.-At 1890
this morning a portion of the large brick
building occupied by E. J. Beiring & Co.,
wholesale grocers, took fire, and at this
hour the whole building is in flames, and
seems doomed to entire destruction. This
building adjoins the Prince building,
which was burned ten days ago. The
other tenants in the block are Adone &
Label, bankers, also burned on the 9th
inst, and Walker q Co. and Seeligson d
Co., commission merchants. There were
a number of dodgers on the third floor.
The loss cannot be estimated, but it will
be heavy.
Divisions In the Liquor Tax Law.
COLUMBUS, June 1.-THE Supreme
Court its decisions to-day in
the Scott Liquor tax law. The cases in
that are King VS.. Capellar, in which judg-
ment was affirmed. In that of Butzman vs..
Whitbeck judgment was reversed. This
declares the second section of the law, per-
tanning to the first lien on the premises,
unconstitutional, and leaves the rest of
the law valid and operative as heretofore.
The question as to the constitutionality of
the whole law was held not to be raised in
the case, and the Court steps in with the
record that the liquor dealer will there
fore be required to pay the June collec-
ton tax under the law, leaving the matter
open to q further test before the seminar
nual payment in December.
