and a Surplus on Hand.

The Lawrence bank Of Lawrenceville, Pitts
burg, closed its doors yesterday, being unable
to lift its checkaat the Union National bank,
through which it did its clearings These
checks amounted to only $1,000. The Law
renee bank was the oldest institution of the
kind in Lawrenceville and had always been
considered sound until lately About month
ago run was made on it on account of ugly
rumoys regarding the conduct OF one OF its off,
GERS, who was accused Of dissipating too much
to attend to business This furry blew over,
however, and on the Attn OF this month divi-
dend was declared of per cent from the earn
ings. 1t now develops that at that very time
there were no earnings The stock of the bank
has since that time. however, been quoted at
$50 per share, $40 above par. The bank did
business up to closing time yesterday Its
friends say 1T will pull through and resume,
Its capital stock was $500 900, surplus, S45, OOO
undivided profits, SIC, 29433, according to the
last report.
Officials Of the bank say they have paid out
S253OOO to depositors during tine past three
weeks and that their assets will be found be-
tween 100000 and 100000. The immediate
cause of the failure was the Vulcan iron COM
pany OF CHARTERS confessing judgment on
notes aggregatng 100000. This failure of the
Vulcan iron company will cause great distress,
they employing about $50 men.
A special to the New York Tribune from Pitts.
burg says the liabilities of the Lawrence bank
are between S6O0,000 and 800 600 Its assets
are an unknown quantity. President w. W.
Young, of the bank, declared last night that
the collapse was complete; that he had sunk all
his own money and that of some of his friends
and he was ruined. He ascribed the failure to
lnjudicious investments and declared positively
that there was no dishonesty. The bank car
ried over $500, 900 in deposits, much being from
persons who are unable to stand loss E. T..

Scarcely day passes, he said, when we do not

he said. if put together would be frightful
There were fOrty-seven lynchings in two
weeks, remarked some one in the room.
Mr.. Hill objected to the remarks CT Mr..

political grounds, and this, MIR. Douglass said,
he thought was understood.

Mr.. Il. S. Smith, esq.,. the colored lawyer,
read paper before the Philomathean literary
society at the Galbraith church Wednesday even
ing on the reason why colored people are organ
izing throughout the country. lie said it was
because of the injustice done the colored peo-
pie by the denial OF their rights. He said the
color line existing among the colored race
itself is a thing that demands immediate exter-
minatiOn or the race need not hope for equal
rights from other races. The paper was dis
cussed by Messrs. W. c. Martin, d. Bats, j. H.
Cromwell of the Adcocdte, - Simmons and

WILL WOODRUFF TESTIFY?
A Romantic Explanation Of the Horse
Thief's Arrest and His Lively Stories.

The Chicago Journal gave an interesting
chapter yesterday in the Cronin case that may
give light on the alibi offered for Pat Dinan's
white horse. The Journal says Woodruff, the
horse thief, for money, unknowingly played
an important part in the conspiracy. He stole
white horse from Dinans stable in full ex-
pectation that he would be arrested and ques-
toned about the murder. Then he was to pre-
tend to break down and to tell his story. Con-
trary to his expectation the police didn't seem
to connect his white horse with the Cronin
affair. and Woodruff had to accuse himself
OF completely in it. The idea was that with the
total disappearance Of the doctor Woodruff's
tale about the woman in the trunk would con.
firm the theory that Cronin ran away because
he had caused the death of some female pa
tlent. Then 1t was arranged that in due time
trace of him should be found in England. The
report OF DR.. Cronlns appearance in Toronto
was link in the chain, one end of which began
with his disappearance from Chicago and
Woodruff story. The other end was to have
reached the banks of the Thames, The finding
of the remains in this city alone prevented the
welding Of these links into a perfect whole.
Who told you to tell this wild story about
the State-street man and the woman's body?"
Woodruff was asked.

''But, mind you, my statement was mixture
of truth and Of romance. Dan Coughlin came
to me Mt the l2th-street station"
What did he have to say?"
IN tell that to Longenecker when tell him
the rest, IL he ever wants me under OATH" re-
piled Woodruff determinedly.
Are you going to be witness in rebuttal?"
Woodruff hesitated, and for probably two
minutes weighed his words. Finally he an
swered: Il don't know for sure. am willing
to go on the stand if those two cases are
dropped, and, rs l said long ago, if they will
give me forty-eight hours outside with a man
