lBy telegraph to the DispatchI
GALVESTON. August 20.-A special
to the Netcs from Fort Worth saws /:
" A startling rumor was spread through
out this city yesterday to the effect that
the late John Nichols, vice-president Of
the City National Bank. whose sudden
death occurred last Monday at the
bank. was a defaulter TO a large amount.
Immediately after his demise the officers
Of the City National Bank called a
meeting Of all the other bankers Of the
city TO investigate the affairs OF the
bank. This committee report that they
find Nichols to have been defaulter to
the amount Of 100000, but the COM
mitSe consider the bank solvent and
sound
The bank has a paid-up capital Of
100000, with a surplus Of 5000
Mr.. A. NJ. BrittOn, president Of the
bank, says that they are well prepared
for a run, and that the bank is perfect
ly solvent and will recover its loss out
Of the estate Of Nichols. 1t Is now
generally believed that Nichols's death
was suicidal. He is believed to have
left an estate valued ct 100000, and
his life was insured for $4,000. Al
though Nichols was vice-president OF
the bank and held $4,000 worth Of its
stock, he ofiicisted as teller and thus
had opportunities for abstractIng money
without the knowledge OF assist
snce Of any other employees. Nichols
was also city treasurer. but thus far
no irregularities in his accounts as trea-
surer have been discovered. So far as
is known the outside Indebtedness Of
Nichols on individual notes amounts TO
but t20, 900, although rumors are cur
rent that MS private indebtedness Is
much larger. Nichols was man Of
frugal habits, and did not drink or
gamble. His funeral yesterday was
the largest ever witnessed in tins city.
The discovery OF his deialcation created
a profound sensation, as Nichols stood
very high, and was one Of the most
popular citizens Of this place lie
leaves two daughters, both Of whom are
married.

Death of mn ola WhIskey Pool and
Organization Of New One.

CHICAGO, August 20.-The whiskey
pool known as the Western Export
Association, which for several years
has controlled the prices Of the liquor
markets Of the country, came to an
end at o'clock to-day. Henceforth
the western pool viii be known as the
American Spirit Company. The causes
leading up TO this change Of name and
the manner Of doing business were
many. and their discussion engaged the
attention Of the Western Export mem
bers during the sessions Of yesterday
and this morning. The chief COM
plant against the old organization
was that members were not bound by
any stronger bond than a voluntary
pledge to abide by the rulls Of the As
sociation, and instances were frequent
where distillers had broken away from
these pledges and put any amount OF
spirits on the market st less rate
than the pool schedule. 1t was pro-
posed 10 consolidate the distillery IN
tercsts more firmly and eflectually and
TO regulate the production and
prices by organizing a chartered
stock company under the laws of
Illinois, the members TO hold stock in
the new corporation in proportion to the
producing capacity Of their respective
distilleries. Sixty-seven Of the seventy
five members Of the Western Export
Association were present to-dsF. when
L resolution was almost unanimously
passed that the Western Export AssO-
citation resolve itself into a stock coTpO-
ration under the laws OF Illinois, TO be
known as the American Spirit Com
pany. An agreement was subsequently
drawn up and signed by al present,
and eight distilleries not represented
VIII be seen and urged 30 60 into the
