ATLANTA. Ga, July a1.-Cashier Haas. OF
the Capital City Bank. whs followed the
deiauliing Bans-President Nelson to Cana
ds, telegraphed his bank to-day that he bad
made a settlement with Nelson. The Capital
City Bank was the heaviest loserb BY Nelson's
departure. the amount OF its loss being about
$4,000. The other banks got off easier, and
1t Is probable that they will not attempt to
recover, as Nelson cannot be brought back
10 the Uniled States.

THE FTREMEN.

MANY Of the visiting soldiers who were
present expressed qualification AZ the quick
ness Of the Fire Der artment in responding
10 the alarm and the manner IN which they
managed the fire.
A. times It was almost impossible for the
men 10 face the smoke that poured from the
building.
BUILDING.
The amount OF damage done the building
Is said to be about 900.
It's owned by Mr.. f.. Y. Cannon. and Is
insured in the Mutual Assurance Company
of Virginia for $1,000.
The damaee done was mainly confined to
the basement aud store.
In the basement oils, pants. yarnlso, tuF-
Dentine. and plate glass for windows and
doors were kept. A cai-oad Of linseed oil,
in barrels and tins, was stored away here a
few DAYS ago.
In the store were all Kinds OF pants,
brushes, &c. Upstairs was large stock OF
sash and blinds. r
The fire dad not burn through any floor,
but the store.1Oor was ripped open by tue
axes OF the lremen in order to put out the
flames. which had gotten into the oasement-
ceiling below.
The Ere was fed By the oil and turpeutine
and burned very little else. which goes TO de-
monstraie how quickly the tlremen got to
work. Though the second alarm was turned
in but four steamers were put 10 work, and
these soon flooded the basement. Water IN
there last night was four feet deep. and so
no one can tell what the firms loss on stock
Is going 10 be.
This was the first fire at which Mr.. Fuller
ever acted as chief and be was cool, sensible,
and prompt in the disposition OF his forces.
He will do we'll.

THE STREET-RAILWAY MATTER.
Sustained by Court. the Citizens Company
Takes Up Rails of the Dudley People.

The Citizens Street railroad Company yester-
day began the work Of tearing up the track the
Dudley people had laid on South Meridian
street. The rails and ties were piled along the
curling. and new ties and rails were put in the
road-bed. During the day a good portion Of
the Dudley peoples work was urdone. The lat
ter company had torn up Meridian street from
Georgia TO Louisiana, and as the Citizens COM
psny does not propose to occupy that square,
the city commissioners is to be asked to require
the Dudley company to put the street
in repair. The local. representatives of that
company are uncomu9 ~nicative with reference
TO their future course, but they say they will
appeal their case, first to the general term of
the Superior Court. and If they do not get a ia
vorable decision there, to the Supreme Court
They have some hope that judges Howe and
Walker will not concur in the opinion Of Judge
pany were paid of by Colonel Holloway for
what work they had done. There is an intima-
ton that the Dudley company will undertake to
occupy certain streets in the southern part of
the city on which the Citizens company have
no line, but as Judge raylor's decision does not
give it any right to such streets, IL is probable
that such a movement has not been seriously
considered.
Yesterday morning a number Of men the Citi-
zens' company bad employed on the line quit
work, because the company refused to pay 81. 90
per day. a price that had been fixed, and which
was paid during the past week as a temporary
measure, warranted by the demand for laborers.
Last week, said Mr.. Steele, I've found that the
Dudley people were offering 81. 80. and We had
to do the same. We had to-day more men than
We required. and in falling back 70 81. o, the
regular price. the new men Quit. None Of our
old employees did so. We have secured a num-
Der of favors from the street commissioners. and
propose to restore the streets just as rapidly as
our new lines ara completed"
