A lliance Convention.

was small, numbering a little more
than twenty members, mostly from
adjoining towns. Vesta was represent
ed, however, by T. D. Barber and Jas.
Arnold, Vail by Jas. Longbotton and
B. Fixsen, and Springdale by Franklin
Ensign. President A. D. Stewart oc-
cupied the chair, and James Arnold
acted as secretary. Preliminary to the
election of delegate to the state ALI
ance convention, action was taken in
regard to a newspaper organ for the
alliance. The Gazette man was not
present at this time, but was informed
afterward by one of the members that
the alliance listened to propositions on
behalf of the Rcveille and of the
Sleepy Eye Herald, the editor of the
latter paper being in attendance. The
convention decided to endorse the
Sleepy Eye Herald, that paper being
the recognized organ of the Brown
county alliance.
For delegates to the state conven-
l'on, Jas. Longbottom, Jas. Arnold, T.
D. Barber and T. L. Gilbert were
placed in nomination. A ballot being
ordered, it was found that Jas. Arnold
was the choice of IA out of Fl dele
gates, and on motion, the election of
Mr.. Arnold was made unanimous.
County lecturer Arnold expressed his
thanks for the honor conferred on him,
and his confidence in the future sue
cess of the alliance in politics. He
thought the 600 votes cast for their
candidates in this county last fall
could be doubled in number in '92,
which expression was greeted with ap-
plause. He asked the members of t. Q
alliance to express their preference for
president of the state alliance.
A ripple of contention was started
when Jos. Tiffany, of Delhi, made a
motion that the delegate be instructed
not to vote for eth Hall or Donnelly,
to the end that the factions headed by
these leaders might be united. This
brought James Longbottom to his
feet, who earnestly protested against
what he insisted was an insult to the
hest friend the farmer and laborirg
man had in the allian ce-Ignatius
Donnelly. If this motion prevailed,
Mr.. Longbottom went on to say that
he should separate" from the alliance,
much as he should dislike to take such
step. Another member, RID. Gleason,
took up the cudgels in behalf of Don
nelly, and to a disinterested observer
it looked as though the Sage of Mn
niger was the choice of a majority OF
the alhancers present. To avoid fur
Their contention, motion was carried
to reconsider previous motion to in
struct the delegate, and Mr.. Arnold
will 60 to st. Poul uninstructed.
After unanimously voting to hold
the next meeting..of the:.county alliance
at the JohnLongbcttom school house
on the first Saturday in March next
the convention adjourned.

MANHATTAN BANK FAILURE.
Serious Thing For the CIty-The Liabilities
Put at 956l,OOO

---~N@N-N~-~~
Put at 956l, 900.
MANHATTAN, Kan, April 9.-E. B.
Purcell, of this city, proprietor of the
Manhattan Bank, made an assignment
yesterday morning to John w. Webb,
his cashier, as temporary assignee. The
liabilities are S56l, 900, but the assets
will not be known for several days.
The assignment was precipitated by
the action of the British Land & Mort
gage Company, Of this city, which yes
terday advertised public sale OF col
lateral given by Mr.. Purcell to secure
his obligation to the company for $780,
600 due April l, and which he failed to
pay. Stringency Of the times and ex-
ceeding difficulty in making collections
were the principal causes assigned for
the failure.
The Manhattan Bank was the oldest
in the State west of Topeka and Mr..
Purcell was the wealthiest man in the
county and one of the wealthiest in the
State and leading business man OF
Manhattan. He was supposed to be abb
sOlutely safe, with unbounded credit.
For several months there had been
vague rumors that he was embarrassed,
but the public would not believe it.
The failure is the greatest disaster
that ever befell this county because of
Mr.. Purcell's immense interests and
long standing business connection.
Every thing is quiet in the city, al
though the failure is the chief topic Of
conversation. There is no run on the
other banks. There are good many
depositors. mostly in small amounts,
and business men will not be seriously
embarrassed.
A suit was begun in the district court
by E. B. Purcell suing the British
Land & Mortgage Company Of America
(limited) for 500, 900 damages, alleged
to result from the public offer to sell
the Purcell securities Mr.. Purcell Sc
cured from the court yesterday an order
restraining the mortgage company from
disposing of $500 shares of the mercan-
tile company's stock deposited with 1t
by Mr.. Purcell as collateral.

John MettmAn.
LEAvENwoRTH, Kan, April Omar
shall Doane has made formal complaint
against John Mettman, charging him
with the wilful. malicious and deliber'
ate murder of Teresa Mettman on the
night of her disappearance. Mettman
will be examined in Justice Plowman's
court on Monday at two o'clock.
Prof. William Lighton, the expert
microscopic, has handed the following
statement to the Standard for publica-
cation: ~ have examined for blood
stains several articles furnished me.
On some have found blood, but have
not yet said it was human blood. Mem
bers of the medical profession or workers
with the microscope up to tho present
time have not been able to decide with
absolute certainty matters Of tits kind. ="
A woman named Mrs. Williams who
lives on the edge of the military reser-
walton, reported that on the night the
murder is supposed to have been COM
mitted she heard two pistol shots at 1880
o'clock, the sound coming from the d.
.ection Of the Mettman neighborhood.
Her husband is q provost guard at the
fort. on the duty IN the day time. He
also heard the shots, but supposed twas
the military signal for fire in the gar
rison. He noted the hour and went to
the door. Just then the second shot
was heard. and, Williams saying, There
is the recall; / guess it amounts to
nothing" closed the door. This would
seem to establish q statement made In
the letter written by the Pole Geravf'
tosky.
