TEMPORARY EMBARRASSMENT.
The Notes of Fleming Bros, Druggists of
Pittsburg, Go to Protest,

PIrTsBURG, PA, October /. 4.-Business
circles were greatly agitated here this
morning by the announcement that the
notes of FLEMING Bros, amounting in all
to some so, 600. had been protested last
night. The Fleming Bros. are extensive
manufacturers and wholesale dealers in
proprietary medicines, and have business
dealings all over the country. The pro-
tested notes are the regular commercial
papers of the concern, and are amply pro-
tected by the properties. John i. Reno, =
well-knOWn insurance man. has been ap-
pointed assignee for the firm Their csti-
mated liabilities amount TO S5)O,OOJ with
assets OF at least Sl,00O,OOO, and il is con-
fdently stated by business people here
that the affair will be adjusted aud the
firm 20 on as usual, as the only liabilities
pressing are the notes mentioned, which
are held by several different parties.
The explanation given by the firm for the
assignment is as follows: The members of
the firm are two brothers, Kid and Coch-
ran Fleming. For some time past the wife
of Kid Fleming has been hanging between
life and death, her demise being expected
at any time Her husband has been de-
voted to her, TO the entire exclusion OF all
business matters. Days of anxiety and
nights of vigil have worn him completely
out, and as result his business has suf-
fered. He is the practical manager, and
has entire charge of the firm, and as re
suit of his neglect these complications
arose. IL IS stated that his brother, Coch-
ran Fleming, is very wealthy, outside Of
his connection with the firm.

MUST REDUCE EXPENSES.
Not Enough Money for the National
Worlds Fair Commission.

CHICAGO, October Maj. Fred Brack
EFT. Chief Clerk of the Treasury Depart
ment is in Chicago, and has had long
consultation with Secretary Dickinson re-
garding Worlds Fair matters.
He does not see any chance for conflict
of authority between the National Com
mission and the local board, but he cannot
figure out exactly how the Commission will
get on with what win be left out OF the
81 100000 appropriation by Congress after
other matters have been attended to.
Mai. Bracket says: The active work
of the Commission viii cover about three
vears-October, 1890, to October, 1893 The
allotment under the act of Congress will
leave but 100000 per year Tor the use OF
the Commission; but as more viii be need
ed i'm 1893 than in 1892. and more in lo92
than in 1891, the proper proportion would
be $4,000 i'm the fiscal year 1891 lending
June 30). Sl0O,0OOin the fiscal year 1892, and
$50 900 in the fiscal year 1893.
Now, while all viii agree that SoOO,OOO
is not too much for proper Government
exhibit in a building which IS TO cost $780,
GOO. it can easily be demonstrated that
500, 600 will not suffice 10 the reasonable
expenses of the Commission. Consequent
ly i'm this case Congress Will probably be
called upon TO allot the appropriation be
tween the Commission and the Depart
mental Board Otherwise there would
simply be race between the two in the
matter of expenditures. each cndeavoring
% get the sum deemed necessary TO carry
out its projected plans

New York. October THE most in
tense excitement has prevailed in and about
the AStOr House all day. Whole troops of
I importers and brokers kept coming and
going As three o'clock approached the
number increased, until finally the
rotunda of the Custom House was filled
with a solid mass of humanity, which per
spired, iostled, pushed and yelled. All
ried large sums Of money.
They were on hand 70 enter goods that
were expected to arrive this afternoon late.
They wished TO get their entries in under
the old law, and stood ready to make their
entries the moment the vessel arrived al
Fire Island BY the decision of yesterday
the Custom House was TO have closed on
the stroke of o'clock this afternoon. All
goods arriving after that hour were 10 come
i'm under the new law, and duty was TO be
charged accordingly. The mass of i'm
pOrters and brokers in the Custom House
was so great at 3 o'clock that Collector
Erhardt deemed il advisable to close
at that hour. He announced that
the time would be extended until four
O'Clock. Each moment after three o'clock
the excitement became greater, Those in
the rotunda appeared TO De going crazy.
They shouted, yelled and made futile
efforts 20 move about. The scene was not
unlike that of the Stock Exchange
The clerks in the various divisions were
swanpcd with business. Not Tor years has
such q scene been enacted in the custom
house. Every few minutes whole
delegations of importers and brok-
ers invaded the collectors Office
and importuned him to keep the Gus
tom house open until midnight. The Col
lcctor was in a quaudary. His Office was
jammed full of importers, who waved rolls
of bills in their hands and shouted to him
not TO close the custom house. The pres
sure on the Collector became SO great that
he sent q telegram to Washington. II was
directed to Secretary Window, and re-
requested advice as 10 what he should do
under the circumstances.
The importers expected the vessels to ar
rive at FIVE o'clock. In little while there
came an answer from Washington. IL was
from the Secretary of the Treasury, and
informed the Collector that he could use
his own discretion in the matter
Upon receipt of Secretary Window S
telegram Collector Erhardt and his seven
deputies held a consultation. They de-
cided to keep the Custom House open un-
til - o'clock tonight. The importers then
cheered.
The steamships Rignals. City of Chca-
20, Vandam and City of Columbia, the lat
ter from Havana, with a cargo of tobacco,
are expected TO arrive this evening.
