With Assets of 100000.
HUNTINGTON, Pa, May 10.-The Iron
Car Company, composed principally of
New York capitalists, made an assignment
to-day for the benefit of its creditors to
Thomas g. Ritch Of Stamford, Conn. This
company was closely allied with the Hunt

built nearly all its cars The failure of the
Iron Car Company to meet its matured
paper has also embarrassed the manufact-
uring company, and the real and personal
property OF the latter company were
seized by the sheriff this evening on
foreign attachments amounting to Sl50.000.
The indebtedness is not all..complete and is
exclusive Of a 100000 mortgage and un-
paid labor claims amounting to $15, 600
Supt Gardner this evening suspended all
the workmen Indefinitely. The assets of
the company, including the works, ma
chinery and stock, will approximate $780,
coo, but at a forced sale would not realize
half this amount. The failure has thrown
400 men out OF work and business interests

LExINGToN's LYNCHING.
Deputy Marshal Miller Not Given VI
by the state.


CHARLESTON, s. c., May 10.-The famous
Lexington lynching case came up in the
United States district court here to-day on
writ of habeas corpus praying for the
transfer of Deputy Marshal Miller, who was
arrested in Lexington on the charge of
forgery and felony, from the state to the
federal court. The district attorney de-
pended in his argument entirely on the cell
ebrated Nagle casa decision in California.
The state attorney argued that Miller,
when arrested by the state authorities, was
not in the discharge of his duties as federal
deputy marshal.
The court dismissed the writ and ordered
the prisoner to be remanded to the state
authorities, on the ground that the affidavit
does not show that the prisoner was arrested
by the state authorities with motive or in
tent to interfere with the service of pro-
cesses of the United States court.
NEW AFFIDAVIT
During the progress of the case Miller
made another affidavit denying all his pre-
vious affidavits. and swearing that they were
made under duress. He asked to be
transferred from the Lexington Jail
to the Columbia Jail for the fear of lynching.
Miller is the man who first submitted the
aft1davits upon which the governor res
pited the death sentence of the negro who
was lynched. After the lynching he made
an affidavit swearing that his previous affl-
davits were untrue. Then he swore that
they were true, and that his first affidavit
had been made when he was drunk. Now he
says that his first statement was true.

dispatch to the Record from Norristown,
Pa, says: The Norristown Water Com
pany. of which w. F. Sltngluff was secre-
tary and treasurer, is the latest corporation
to discover that it has suffered through
Slingluff's operations. To-day it was dis
covered that the company had lost about
S25,000 through Slingluff. The manner
in which Slingluff is said to have appro-
priated the funds of the company, is stamped
as defalcation pure and simple, and there
are threats of his arrest Cashier w. f.
Slingluff's unsuccessful system of finan-
ciering has proved the worst blow ever
dealt to Norristown.
HIS BORROWINGS.
Thus far his so-called borrowings are
S1S0,000 from the Montgomery Trust Com
pany, $4,000 from the Montgomery Ma
tional Bank, SOS, 900 from the Pennsylvania
Rolled Steel Car Wheel Company, and
$25, 900 or more from the Norristown Water
Company. All these concerns. with the
exception of the water company, claim to
be 'amply secured" In addition to the
sums named Cashier Slingluff has loans
from three building and loan associations
aggregating about $4,000, which is also
said to be secured.

The Mckinley Bill May Drive Out
British Exhibits.
LONDON, May 10.-During the session OF
the House Of Commons to-day, Jesse Col
lings, liberal, asked whether the govern
ment would take any steps to encourage
British manufacturers to send exhibits to
the worlds fair at Chicago if the Mckinley
tariff bill, now before the American con-
gress, should become a law, inasmuch as the
bill practically prohibits the importation of
British goods.
Right Hon. Sir James Ferguson, sec
retary of the foreign office, said the ques-
ton of official participation in the proposed
fair could be determined only after consid-
Grafton of the advantages which would
accrue to British interests when an invita-
tion to take part in the exhibition was re-
ceived from the American government. 1t
is probable, he said, that the manufacturers
of Great Britain would to great extent be
deferred from sending exhibits TO the fair il
the tariff precluded profitable sales il
