BLAINE GOING SOUTH.
May Not Return to the State
Department for Months.
At BAR HARBoR THIS SUMMER.
Col. Mcclure on Hills Candidacy-The
gressional Campaign Committee.

WASHINGTON CRY. March 12-fSpecial.]
Secretary Blaine has decided to go South
to remain for an indefinite period. 1t is
learned today that as soon as he is suf-
fciently recuperated from his recent at
tack of the grip to be able to travel, he
will Immediately start for some portion of
the South on the advice of his physician.
While it is not believed that he is danger
ously i'll, it is considered judicious for
him to leave Washington City during the
spring months in order to regain
the complete recovery of his health.
His friends believe that he will
find it to his best possible
advantage to remain away from Washing
ton City until some time in May or June,
and then if it Is found that he has not
completely recovered, it is probable that
he will go to Bar Harbor and remain dur
ing the summer III some quarters.
1t is thought that Mr.. Blaine may find it
necessary to retire from the cabinet, but
nothing definite upon this point could be
learned today. Mr.. Blaine's condition
stops any further consideration of him as
presidential nominee, and it is now con-
sidered ont of the question even to bring
his name as a candidate in any sense of
the word. His friends hope a sojourn in
the South may be beneficial, and that he
will be able to return to Washington City
at an early day to resume his duties in the
state department.

Tho Ortine Bank Trouble.

TACOMA, March 12-TSpecial.l THE Ma
tional Bank of the Republic of this city
has been ordered to turn over to Receiver
Boardman, of the First Bank of Orting,
notes aggregating S14, 9S6 and two notes of
500 each, delivered to it by Cashier Var
rington, of the Orting institution. Presi-
dent Harry NJ. Ball, of the National Bank
of the Republic, and Cashier Warrington,
of the Orting bank, have also been in
structed to pay their unpaid stock sub
scriptioE, amounting to 5000 each, to the
Orting bank.
At the time the Orting bank went into
Receiver George II. Boardman's hands,
having been declared insolvent by Var
rington when the Citizens bank of this
city protested its paper, Ball said he had
arranged to turn his stock over to Var
rington, and this Warrington has denied.
A bad state of affairs was promised to
be shown up when the books of the
Orting bank were examined. And this is
what Receiver Boardman's report shows:
Capital stock ST., 900, of which $500 was
paid in; deposits, per trial balance, 81 53;
deposits, per books, 81, I'll Certificates of
deposit show S98S outstanding, but the
vouchers returned leave $1,000. In 0cto-
Der Ball took from the bank as notes for
s14,9S6, which he is now instructed to re-
turn. These securities were said to secure
the National Bank of the Republic for
$4,000 in notes signed by I. D. Y Warrington
as cashier. These notes, it is alleged,
were made and the securities given with
out the knowledge or consent of the
directors of the 0rting bank. However,
the receiver finds balance of Sl0,071 still
due the National Bank of the Republic.

the body had been in the water about
three weeks, and was so decomposed that
the features were unacceptable. When
the clothing was searched at the morgue
a card was found showing that the owner
was a member of the Coast Seamen's
Union. The card was made out in the
name of Grant Coursen, and showed that
the owner was a native of California and %
years of age. The address given on the
card was No. 1850 Fulton street, which is
the same number as that on the house of
Miss Ellen Coursen, musician and
singer. The deceased, it is believed, is a
brother of that lady. In another of his
pockets was found letter addressed to
Mrs Reed, of Portland, Or. The letter was
dated February %, and the postage stamp
being uncanceled, showed that it had never
been mailed. Miss Ellen Coursen stated
that her brother had left here about two
weeks ago with the intention of going to
British Columbia on vessel, and was not
expected back for period of four months.
1t was the belief of the family that he was
now on his way to Nanaimo, and the news
of his body being found was totally unex-
pected. How he came to fall into the bay
is mystery.
