AN OLD CHESTNUT.

CHICAGO, July left Is reported this
evening that negotiations are in progress
looking to the consolidation Of the union
stockyards, the Chicago Union Trans
fer company, the Stickney enterprise
and the Belt road. Competent
persons are said to be at work deter
mining the question of values. The
object is the final removal of the stock
yards to the more commodious Stickney
tract, a process which. it is thought,
would take several years, but would
bring the packers into harmony with
the English syndicate owners of the
yards and furnish transportation facili-
ties superior to those now enjoyed, the
present stockyards lands to be disposed
of tor residence and business purposes.

"Hell's Half Acre" Being Purified by the
Courts.
TIPToN, Ind, Dec. 23.--In the north
east part Of this county is little church,
and the locality is known as "Hell's Half
Acre" The congregation worshiping In
this church is small, and is made mp
principally of old people. Living in the
same neighborhood is gang of lswless
young men who have been making exist
ence miserable for those who worship In
this church. During services these
hoodlums would swoop down upon the
place, yell like Indians, break window
glass and otherwise disturb the gather
ing,
On one occasion the hoodlums secured
keg of beer and after drinking the
contents they threw the empty keg
through a window. Recently the grand
jury investigated the matter, and as a
result dozen indictments were returned
against the culprits for malicious tres
pass. David Kelly was arrested, and he
was fined $26 and costs by Judge Kirk
wood, and was remanded to jail. The
officers are in pursuit of the other
offenders.

AFFECTS THE ENTIRE COUNTY.
The Bank of GreenviIIe, Miss, Forced tc
Suspend.

The Bank of GreenvIlIe, Miss, Forced to
Suspend.
VICKsBURG, Miss, Dec. 23-The bank
Of Greenville, at Greenville, Miss, sus-
pended Tuesday The first intima-
ton Of the suspension was this notice
posted on the door of the bank: "Closed
by order of the chancery court Of Wash
ington county" The bank is in the
hands of receiver. The shock of this
intelligence was great. When it reached
the circuit court, then in session, the at
tendant counsel told the presiding judge
that this failure was such calamity
that no one present was in any condi-
ton to transact business and court was
adjourned at once.
1t is feared that this is but the pre-
cursor Of other misfortunes, all the re-
suit of the depression in cotton. United
States Senator White, representing the
Whitney National bank, of New Or
leans, and other creditors, were in
Greenville Tuesday. President Pollock
has been appointed receiver, Liabilities
are stated at $500.000 The assets are
more than that amount comprising
among others, $15O00 in first mort
cages on Washington county real estate
and county securities to the amount Of
S1500O0. The failure is due to success
i've overfiows, entailing short crops, and
70 the low price of cotton.
1t is a well known fact that the bank
has been the financial bulwark of the
entire county, the wealthiest in the
state, for years. The utmost sympathy
is expressed for President Pollock, whose
ability and integrity are distinguished.
The banks of this city express the belief,
based on personal knowledge, that the
creditors will be paid in full. Never
theless the blow is heavy one, the
banks operations being by no means
confined to Washington county The
bank was the first ever established in
Greenville. Detailed lists of the credi-
tors have not been received, but the
Whitney National bank Of New Orleans
is understood to be the largest creditor.
The Hanover bank, of New York, is also
q creditor.

Shirke, who claims to own small strip

necessary to convey gas to Chicago. The
plaintiff also contested the right of the

Judge Burson rendered his decision
partly in favor of the defendants, hold
ing that the restraining order may be so
modified as to allow defendants to lay
their pipes upon depositing $100 with
the clerk of the court to be used if nee
essary, to pay the cost of the removal Of
the pipes should the court upon final
