The Bank of Greenville Closes it's Doors
With 100000 Liabilities.
VIcKsBURG, Miss, Dec. 23.-ISpecialI
The Bank Of Greenyille, at Greenville,
Miss, suspended yesterday at p. m.
The first intimation of tho suspension
was the following notice pasted on the
door of the bank: CLOSED by order of

The shock of this intelligence was so
great that when it reached circuit court

tho presiding Judge that this failure
was such calamity that no one pres
ent was in any condition to transact
business, and the court adjourned at
once 1t is feared that this is but tho
precursor to other misfortunes, all the
result of the depression in cotton.
United States Senator White, repre-
senting the Whitney National Bank of
New Orleans, and other creditors were
in Greenville yesterday. President
Pollock was appointed the receiver.
Liabilities are stated at 100000.
The assets are N ore than the amount.
comprising. among others, S75O,OOO in

real estate and county securities 10 the
amount Of Sl50,O0O. The failure is due
to successive overflows entailing short
crops and to the low price Of cotton. 1t
Is u well-known fact that the bank has
been the financial bulwark OF the en-
tire country and the wealthiest in the
State for years. Utmost sympathy is
expressed for President Pollock, whose

Another solace which the dealers are

WOMEN OF FASHION
Seanty Skirts are Now Among
the Latest Kinks.
THE WEATHER A BIG DRAWBACK
ahe Craze for Jewels is at Its Height-Creole
Beauties Wear Fire Flies in
Place of Emeralds.

NEW YORK, May 81, 1s9l.-TSpecial cor
respondence of THE HERALD. The chilly
weather which has up to this time
prevailed has greatly retarded the
spring trade in millensry and dress
making. Only few days ago
sealskin wraps, Persian lamb dolmans and
fur muff1ers, boas, were taken from the
place where, camphor laaen, they had
been left to hibernate for the summer, and
brought into active service once more. A
cold May it has been, and hard one for
those who depend upon the loneliness and
geniahty of the spring days to tempt the
danes of fashion into extravagances OF
dress
The thin, gay spring suits have been
scarce, the heavy half winter toilets were
very plentiful. And now. it is so late in the
season that those who would month age
have bought new gowns to wear for street
promenades now say that IL is not worth
while to invest in these fieeting spring nov
elites, for the summer is near at hand, and
it is almost time to go away for the heated
season. Last fall's gowns, slightly remod-
eled and treated to corduroy sleeves or
jewel-bedecked vests, will do nicely land on
the very warmest of the days we are now
having, one Of the gowns already made fol
summer may be brought out The month
or six weeks of the season when spring
goods have 1ourished in former years was
this year cut short, and the shopkeeper't
mourn their losses.
AS recompense to this dullness in nov
city dress goods there has been most un-
usual sale of street wraps, dolmans anG
capes. Fur capes have somewhat lost theil
popularity, and newer style has arisen il
the loose, braided or ietted wraps which
coIpe in many fashionable devices for out
iSOr wear in place of Jackets or fur capes
The Louis Quatorze coat has not lost it
hold upon epublic, but the wrap has com,
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1891-05-24

in as companion to it. The latter is be-
coming where the former is not. The Louis
Quatorze makes fat woman look as if car
rying paniers all around her person below
the waist, and the knee length is trying to
all who have not the advantage of slimness.
The wrap with its loose sleeves, medici col
lar and yoke, pointed front and back, con-
ceals the defects and gives an air of elegant
slimness to the too redundant form.
Upon young women, TOO, it is becoming,
and for theatre wrap, or dinner, or carriage
use, it has many things to commend it. 1t
can DE easily slipped on and off, and it trans
forms an evening dress into a street gown
by concealing decollete or fanciful waist.
Many of the wraps are imported, yet those
of domestic manufacture are quite as ele-
CANT Sets of embroidery in gold, silver,
bronze and tinsel come for sewing upon the
collar and yoke of these wraps. The front
and back are tight fitting, the sleeves per-
fectly loose and flowing, being gathered at
at the shoulders into a full puff, and left
hanging far below the hand.
Another variety of these is open in front
and the wearer puts out her arms as if she
were wearing circular. The edge of the
medici collar is bo-dered with feather trim
ming, or chiffon. The dressiest of these
wraps are in light tan or white, embroid-
cred in gold and silver. Beautiful ones are
finished with jets and still others dotted at
every inch of their length and breadth with
jewels.
The jewel season may now be said to be
at its height. Everything that could be de-
vised has been devised and women are
wearing all that can possibly be worn by
them in the way of tinsel or jewel or colored
stones. If there are heights or depths of
the jewel season yet to be fathomed, the
fashionable modiste does not predict it,
Only one vagary remains for our bellies of
fashion. Down in Cuba the ladies when
they get themselves up very smart indeed
decorate themselves, their gowns and their
hair with fire flies in place of precious
stones. There beautiful green fire flies look
like emeralds, and the fire beetles glow in
the light like clear living stones. Whether
some enterprising creature viii endeavor tc
bring these fire flies to dwell in our midst
and make ornaments for US we do not know,
but with this exception we have reached
the height Of any hitherto reported fashion
tor excess in iewelry.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1891-05-24

Paris is not only crowded, but begins to
be gay. For the first time this season a
fashionable gathering graced the Long
champs tribunes on Sunday. Light hues
were sported by the ladies, and the scene
was more animated than could have been
expected under the depression which has
settled down on French racing. OF betting
there was no stint, the prohibitory regula
ton, Notwithstanding, for nearly all the
listmen now open books and if they do not
carry on such roaring trade as before, ap-
pear to have discovered plenty of custom
ers whom they can trust, and who trust
them until next day, when the settling
takes place in some cafe or wine shop. In
this way most Of the drinking establish
ments of the capital have become clandes-
tine betting agencies, and the evil is crop
ping up again like the Hydra. There is
some prospect, too, that the pools will be
re-established before the Grand Prix If
they are not one of the primary objects of
that institution will be defeated, for Eng
fish visitors will scarcely be able to drop
| their money into French pockets, and con-
sequently will probably stop at home.
Miss Emma Eames' marriage with Mr..
Story will not take place till next year, and
the charming artist has no intention of
abandoning her artistic career in conse-
quence of the happy event. She will re-
main on the lyric stage.
The favorite Paris tsilors, Redfern &
| Debacker, are making their habits very
plain and short. The corsage fastens in
front with tiny buttons, the sleeves seem
to have grown tighter fitting, and the skirt
is lined with silk, which is great improve
ment, hence l hasten to note. The cloth
fused for these habits is of tiny diagonal
and of the metallic blue and green shades.
| One seldom sees black riding habit.
