One Of the most startling and original works
ever written in America. The author a man OF

un er a nom de plume believes that the civiliza-
tion OF the world is on the way to speedy de-
struction unless its steps are arrested by real
ization OF the abyss that yawns before IL. He
seeks to apply a heroic Temedy-'o wit, that OF

MEETING OF CREDITORS.
Steps Taken TO Immediately Reorganize the
Embarrassed Iron Car Company

Steps Taken TO Immediately Reorganize the
Embarrassed Iron Car Company.
NEW YORK, May ia meeting OF
creditors of the Iron Car Company, whose
claims aggregated about $500, 900, was held
to-day, and steps were taken to reorganize
the company. A resolution was adopted to
the effect that the creditors express their be-
lief that the interests of the creditors at
large will be best served by an amicable re-
organization of the company's affairs, and
that a committee composed of the following
houses, selected by the creditors cooperate
with those having pending negotiations in
charge, with view to speedy settlement:
Harrisburg Car Company, Brady Metal
and l. G. Johnston & Co.
Stewart L. Woodford said after the meet
ing that he expected a speedy reorganiza-
tion of the company, in which the creditors
interests will be protected. He thought the
general liabilities of the company would
amount to about 81, $50, 900. From those
present it was learned that the amount in
cluded the claim of Alfred Sully Of $780,
900. President George W. Dethridge said
to-day that the Iron Car Company was per-
fectly solvent ii it was not pulled to pieces
and if it had not been attached there would
have been a surplus of assets of 81, SOC, 900
to s., 00O, 900. There were S., 000, 900 assets,
including the cars, again st which S., SOC, 900
car trust bonds had been disposed of.
Several additional attachments were
issued and served here to-day against the
Iron Car Company and the suspended
Huntingdon Manufacturing Company, max
ing total liability of over $500, 900. Many
suits for judgment have been entered. The
Carlisle Car Works, referred to in other dis
patches, are in no wise connected with the
embarrassed companies.

THE TINE TO TALK
Has Commenced in the Trial of the
Nicholson Robbery Case.
CRIMINAL COURT GRINDING AGAIN.
a Woman Who Lost Her Lover, but Saved
Some of Her Wealth.
OTHER NEWS FROM THE COURT HOUSE

The Nicholson postoffice case was con-
Sinued Yesterday, in the United States
District Court. Walter Billings was the
first witness called. He testified that he
saw Casterline, February 6, about 10 O'Clock,
p. NJ, in Nicholson, but not In the COM
pany of the defendants.
Orlando Taylor testified that he helped to
hunt the robbers, and went two miles on
the train, passing three men who were on
the bank, but whom he could not recognize.
William CasterliIg, one Of the defend
ants, said be worked in the D., L. & W.
roundhouse at Scranton. He was arrested
February z, and given a hearing and dis
charged. He was again arrested and held
on tue statement of Morris, which was made
March 20. He denied having seen Morris in
Nicholson on the night of the robbery, and
also denied that he was ever the possessor of
the hatchet which was found in the postoffice.
Ernest Ttman. one of the defendants, testi-
fed that he was not acquainted with Casterline
on February6
Court then took recess until the afternoon
when Titman was recalled. He then denied in
whole the allegations made against him, and
told the same story to his whereabouts on
the night Of the robbery as that related by his
parents Saturday.
w. NJ. Clifford. a conductor on the Delaware.
Lackawanna and Western railroad, testified
that he had not seen Casterline on his train the
night of the robbery.
Arthur Meade and Arthur Williams, en-
ployes on the same train, testified to the cor
rectness OF Clifford's statement.
Mrs. Annie Vine and w. II. Taylor testified
that Casterine informed them that be left
Nicholson between L and / o'clock. on the
night of the robbery, and not little after 10,
as had been alleged.
William Simpson, Sergeant of Police at
Scranton testified to the arrest of Casterline.
The case was then closed, as far as testimony
was concerned. and Attorney Smith opened his
address to the jury. The address lasted from
$50 o'clock until 9,
The argument was that Sprague, alias Nor
ris, was the only one in the postofice, and that
an alibi had been proven for the other defend
ants. He claimed that the Government was
too energetic, and that the character of some
OF the witnesses for the prosecution was such
that their testimony could not be relied upon;
and also that the prosecution refused to pro-
ouce some important witnesses for the defense.
Court then adjourned until this morning,
