FAYETTEVILLE, N. c., Dee. 31.-Tbe
Peoples National Bank Of this place
closed its doors at II o'clock to-day, on
account of inability of the heavy de-
mands upon It's funds. The suspension
caused quite ripple in business circles
and is due to run made on the bank by
the depositors, the result of the currency
given to the report that the bank had
lost heavily by the recent failure of its
former President, Mr.. E. F. Moore. From
the best information it is learned
that the assets to night aggregate about
1920, 900 gross. consisting largely of dis
counted paper, while the liabilities foot
up about $4,000, $4,000 of which is
due depositors and time certificates. At
present there is little doubt but what
the dep sit.,fs viii be paid dollar for
dollar Information is meagre.
The following failures have occurred
to-day and yesterday: J. b. Ingram,

gagged equal 70 an assignment.

Coon FOR ALL THREE.-The greatest good
for the greatest number is the mark aimed
at by all reformers, and to reach it secures
the greatest acclaim of fame that can be
had. 1t is good thing for the consumer
for the manufacturer, for the newspapers
when an article of merit is put upon the
market, is made known by newspaper ad-
vertising, and, through series of years,
proves its worth to lessen labor in millions
of homes, profits the newspapers, and gives
its makers fair living. Pearline, the great
washing powder manufactured by James
Pyle & Sons, New York, has done all this.
If it is not making labor easier in your
home, it is your fault. Something of its
history is made plain in an advertisement in

JUDGMENT AGAINST CHIEF MORRIS

In Favor of the City for $3.50 for
s. Police Court Fines
The Roanoke times. [volume] (Roanoke, Va.) 1890-1895, 1891-09-20

A judgment was entered on the
records of the Hastings Court Septem-
Der against M. C. Morris, chief of
police, in favor of the city of Roanoke,
in the name of j. NJ Bennett, auditor,
forS1,750, Mr. Morris having confessed
Judgment.
II appears that during the administra-
ton of the late Mayor Carr, the chief of
police had charge OF the collection of
fines imposed in the mayors court, and
it was in handling this money asNIr.
Morris became indebted to tho City.
Mayor Evans has had personal charge
OF the revenue derived from his court
during his administration.
The fact that Mr.. Morris has been in
debtcd to the city, and all tho circum-
stances of the matter have been. known
TO city officials, and it is understood to
be at their suggestion that he confessed
Judgment without suit having been in
stituted. Mayor Evans, who has been
familiar with the matter since he be-
came mayor of the city regards the in
debtedness as resulting from careless
management, and not any intention
upon the part of Mr.. Morris to defraud
the city. 1t is understood that Mr..
Morris has moro than enough unencum-
bered property to secure the debt.
