Did Vice President Buckout, of the Third
National Bank of New York, Resign?
New Yoxx, July 22.-The officials of
the Third National Bank announced to-
day that the resignation Of Vice Presi-
dent Buckout had been received and
accepted. Later Henry Buckout, the
vice president of the bank, appeared on
Wall street and authorized a denial OF
the statement that he had resigned.
When this denial was repeated the
cashier of the bank said he could not
understand how Mr.. Buckout could
make any denial us he had certainly re-
signed on account OF the association OF
his name with the American Loan and
Trust Company's troubles.
It is stated in the receivers report
that Mr.. Buckout owed the Trust COM
pany SIT 900 on an over due note. 1t is
stated that James S. Silver, who was
one of the debtors of the American Loan
and Trust Company, and OF the WASH
ington National Bank, overdrew his ac-
count in the Third National by Sl7, 900.
To make this good, Vice President Buck
out borrowed like amount on his own
note from the American Loan and Trust
Company and deposited it against Sill
ver's overdraft. This note remained
unpaid at the time the American Loan
and Trust Company closed its doors,
and has not beon paid yet. Buckhout
has not been at the bank to-day.

Again Threatens Cherokee, Iowa-De-
struction of Property.
CHEROKEE, Iowa. July 22.-This morn
ing Cherokee county was visited by q
most disastrous rain and wind storm,
only equalled by the great flood OF June
2S. Last evening a terrific rain storm
set in, accompanied by hail and wind,
which continued up to 4. a. m. to-day.
Railroad creek, in this city, attained u
height of but two feet lower than last
month, when it wrought such havoc.
Much alarm was felt by the remaining
residents on flat ground, and many OF
them deserted their homes.
Two residences, which were moved
from their foundations by the former
food, were this morning carried away
into the Sioux river and dashed to
pieces on Broad street bridge. Many
timbers and ruins saved from the for
mer storm were swept into the river
and lodged against the bridge, which
went out at an early hour this morning.
Two other bridges in the city were also
carried away. There are washouts on
the Illinois Central railroad between
this point and Sioux City, and also on
the Cherokee division Of the Illinois
Central north and south OF here. Corn
and small grain have suffered great
damage by having been tlattened by the
heavy rain and wind.

vim, who rolled about hardly able to
stand, jestingly said that Mitchell
could not hit him in q hun
dred years. Mitchell, angered ut
these words, knocked Slayin about the
stage and finally among the audience.
During the row Slavin fell several times
and Mitchell continued striking him
even while he was still on his knees
trying to rise, blood pouring from his
nose and mouth. When Slavin re-
gained the stage the curtain was low
cred and the fighters rolled behind the
scenes and with great difficulty were
separated.

Against Judge Porter, of Plttsburgh-He
Courts nm Investigation.
PIrrsBUReu, PA. July 22.-Anthony
o'Brien entered suit in the county court
to-day for the recovery of $500, which
he alleges he gave to County Detective
Langhurst to protect his son, who had
been arrested for keeping a disorderly
house. 0'Brien makes affidavit that
Langhurst told him that Judge Porter,
the district attorney, had received half
the money. The suit created q sensa-
ton in the court and political circles,
but the charge against Judge Porter is
generally discredlted. He emphatically
denies the allegation and will insist
upon a thorough investigation. His
friends claim the suit was entered for
political effect. County Detective Lang
hurst is out OF the city.

HOW THEY LIKE IT.
French Chambers of Commerce and the
Columbian Exposition.


PARIS, July 22.-Tho Associated
Press correspondent here has been max
ing inquiries of the Chambers of Com
merce in France as to the present feel
ing concerning the Mckinley tariff, and
as to whether this feeling will affect the
French exhibit at Chicago. The Vice
President OF the Chamber OF Commerce
OF Algiers said that the chamber over
which he presided passed resolution
not long ago declaring that the new
tariff law "tended to render very ditR-
cult, ifnot impossible, all trade between
France and the United States"
The secretary OF the Chamber OF Com
merce of Reims, said: "For the present,
at least, the Mckinley bill is an obsta-
Gle to the participation of our manutac-
turers in the Chicago exhibition. This
fact is clearly brought out in the reply
which our chamber made when the
Minister of Commerce asked recently
for our views In regard to the Chicago
exhibition"
1.-THE text Of that reply is as follows:
'on account Of the almost prohibitiye
duties which are laid on our manufac-
turers at American ports We cannot
take the initiative in promoting an ex-
hibit at Chicago, nor ask our merchants
and manufacturers to take part in the
lair But il within reasonable length
OF time friendlier spirit is shown by
the American republic for our produc-
tions, this chamber will then be ready
to second the minister's efforts. Such
is the sentiment in this region and such
is its expression"

In the Elliott Murder Trial-The Prisoner
Wants to Hang 'Iike Gentleman"
CoLuMBus, O., July 22.-one of the
most sensational scenes that has ever
occurred in the courts of this or per
haps any other State, took place in the
Elliott case to-day. The Prosecuting
Attorney had just begun to address the
jury and was explaining away some of
the misstatements made by the defense,
when w. ]. Elliott, the murderer, arose
in his chair and shouted that the
prosecutor was liar, and added: "1f
| have to hang, I want to hang like q
gentleman and don't want my relatives
traduced." Mr.. Huling commanded the
prisoner to sit down, but he refused to
do SO and Sheriff Custer and the jailor
were obliged to 60 and seat him: Mr..
Huling declared that what he said was
true. Mr.. Huling had been referring
to an article in the World which the
defense claimed called Elliott's wife o
prostitute. But Mr.. Huling declared
that the article was only personal and
simply announced Mrs. Florence j.
Elliott's arrival at the home OF the
defendant at Arlington.

"rANNHAuSERn

Demonstrates Tint the Bayreuth Per-
formances Are Disappointment.
BAYREUTH, July 22.-The greatest in
terest of the musical public centred in
to-day's production of the revised YER
sion of "Tannhauser," which was origin
ally performed in Paris in 1861. "Parsi-
fal" and "Tristan und Isolde" have
been played at Bayreuth in previous
seasons, but Tannhauser has not hith-
erto been attempted. The gem
eral opinion that this years ensem-
BILE is inferior, though some
individual artists are good, has been
confirmed by. to-day's rendering of
"Tannhauser," for the result was a Bit
ter disappointment, Frau Wagner IN
sisting that all the "Elizabeths" hith-
erto had been wrongly impersonated,
and that the right conception was that
OF frail, spiritual beauty OILY, con-
trasting with the robust "Venus" Sc
lected to fill the part. The many re-
hearsals wore out the artist first select
ed and another beginner, whose physi-
cal appearance corresponded with Frau
Wagner's idea, was substituted at the
last moment. To-day her voice was not
heard in the ensembles, and in the
solos her voice and method were ex-
ceedingly amateurish. Musically,
America has seen many better per-
Disappointment found general ex-
preston among the musicians, The
concensus Of opinion is that the Bay

cause Frau Wagner experiments too
much with beginners and carries drill
ing too far, caushing individuality,
creating artiiciality and refining to the
dimensions Of small room what is in
tended for large stage.

A PEACEFUL OUTCOME
OF the Trouble in the Tennessee
Mining Region
NOW CONFIDENTLY EXPECTED.
Governor Buchanan VIII Call an Ex-
ira Session of the Legislature to
Modify If not Repeal the Convict
Labor Law----The Military to be
withdrawn If the Men VIII Have
Patience to Await the Resnlt.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn, July 22.-It is
pretty generally decided tonight that
there is little fear that blood will have
to be shed in the mining region. Gov
ernor Buchanan reached the city this
morning from Nashville and as soon as
he breakfasted began his work to smooth
the tangled skein. lie first called his
militia officers into his consultation
room and listened to their reports; later
on prominent citizens of Knoxville and
friends of the governor were admitted.
The governor listened to all suggestions,
evidently wanting the fullest possible
discussion OF tho situation in all its as
poets. At three o'clock this afternoon,
by appointment, he met the committee
OF miners mentioned in last nights dis
patches and the committee OF five
named by the miners.
The session lasted for several hours
and at the end he announced his decis-
ion. He stated that before he left
Nashville he had decided to call an
extra session Of the Legislature and had
already made q call for an election to
fill vacancies in the Legislature. In his
call for special session he will embody
a Recommendation to the Legislature
that the convict lease system be modi-
fed, if not repealed. In the meantime,
pending the election, the conyicts must
be returned to the Briceville mines
from which they have been evicted. If
the miners agree not to molest them
until such time us the Legislature may
act the militia will be sent home.
The committee from the miners, al
though havingpower to act, concluded
that the decision OF the governor should
be laid officially before the miners as a
whole and the governor was SO inform
ed. The committee will leave here for
Coal Creek early in the morning.
TIE MAN MOST INTERESTED.
Reports about the threatened riot to-
day at Briceville are without founda-
ton. There is nobody in Briceville for
the miners to fight. The militia and
the convicts and the guards are all in
Knoxville. There is not n man in Brice-
vile nor has there been since Monday
who is not q miner or friend OF the
miners. Tomorrow is anxiously await
ed by Gov. Buchanan. lie is interested
in it as no other man.can be, for all the
best lawyers believe that in calling out
the militia he has exceeded his power.
The constitution OF the State is very
plainly against him. The clause relat-
ing to the militia is: "The militia shall
not be called into service except in
eases of rebellion or invasion, and then
only when the general assembly shall
declare by law that the public safety. re-

her throat cut from ear to ear and q
large carving knife close beside her
head. Her clothing was torn

supposed some fiend had attempted to

the girl, had cut her throat 1t was
soon discovered, however, that the box
containing the savings of the family had

A SURPRISE.
Tho Assignment of the Kimball. Champ
Investment Company.

Investment Company.
COUNCIL BLUFFS, IA, July 22.-The
Kimball-Champ Investment Company,
OF this city, with u capital stock OF $780,
900, assigned to-day to eX-AGayor NJ. +.
Rohrer for tho benefit OF its creditors.
While the assignment was talked OF in
local banking circles for several weeks,
and was expected, the complicated
state OF the company's finances was not
generally known, and the failure as q
consequence created intense interest
and excitement.
Messrs. ]. +. Kimball and George II.
Champ, heads OF the company, also did
a general banking business under the
firm name OF Kimball 4 Champ. They
were supposed to be sound in every re-
spect, and did large business. Before
the failure of the investment company
there was on deposit in the bank about
$4,000 including all trust funds, 81 100
Of which belonged to Pottawattamie
county.
County Treasurer Plumer drew his
deposit out about the time the assign
ment was fled for record. A number
of other depositors got their money out
also, but the larger part OF the deposits
are now in the hands Of the assignees.
The company made the first move to
wnrd of the assignment in the morning
by fling with the county recorder mort
cages for $4,000 on the Grand Hotel
property in favor of the Pennsylvania
Mutual Life Insurance Company. There
followed another mortgage for S1e,500
on some property to Hon. George F.
Wright. Other mortgages on more
property aggregating about $4,000
followed.
Assignee Rohrer will have but little
to say in regard to the condition Of the
company. His attorney, Finlay Burk,
talks freely OF the situation and declares
the chief cause Of the company going
into voluntary liquidation was total
failure Of borrowers in the State Of
Nebraska, in the city Of Omaha, to pay
their interests.
