A PANIC AT AKRON

Caused by Rumor That tho Paige Failure
Affected Bank in That Town-The In.
stitution Probably sound-e1. O0O, 600 in
Forged Paper.
CLEVELAND, April 2.-Rumors that the
failure of the Painesville Bank had weak
ened the Citizens Savings Bank at Akron
caused run on the latter institution last
night and this morning. Depositors made
. rush for their money, and after $125, 900
had been paid out the bank decided to sus-
pend payment on interest-bearing deposits
for 80 days This was due to lack of cur
rency.
The bank is said to be perfectly sound,
and not single business man in Akron
drew out cent Of his deposits, while
many Of them continued to make deposits,
as usual, to-day. o. c. Barber, the millionaire
match manufacturer, expressed his conf
dence in the bank by offering to honor
drafts OF depositors. The excitement, which
was intense for time, has been allayed,
and no further withdrawal of deposits is an
ticipated.
A dispatch from New York says: More Of
the commercial paper Of Paige, Carey &
Co., of No 45 Broadway, bearing the forged
endorsement of John Huntington, was
brought up in New York than bankers are
willing to admit, and the publicity which has
been given to the affair led to the disclosure
that large part of the assets Of the North
River Bank, which is now in the hands of
Receiver Higgins, consists of notes bear
ing this signature. 1t is known that
several hundred thousand dollars OF the
assets of the bankrupt bank are in
notes bearing the signature of John
Huntington, and none OF them have yet
been paid. 1t is believed the total amount
of forgeries will be found to be almost
1,0O0,O 900. As the worthless paper is s ut
tered all over New England, and some OF it
is in New York City, it will be some time
before the exact figures will be learned No
one will attempt to accuse any one man Of
forging all the notes.

GROVER GAINING IN STRENGTH,

Congressman Drummer Saws the Ex-Presi-
dent Is sure to BE Nominated.
READING, April 2.-Congressmau Brun-
ner arrived in the city to-day to attend to
some first of April business. He
expresses great satisfaction in hay
ing gotten rid of the silver bill and
that victory has been won for sound
money. He says the feeling at the National
Capital and among Democratic Congressman
is that Cleveland is gaining in strength
every day and that he is pretty sure of be-
ing nominated.
The general impression, Mr. Drummer
Gays, is that Hill made great mistake in
not remaining in his seat in the Senate in
stead Of going around electioneering He
has been losing ground ever since he went
South.

on London's Lord Mayor.
LONDON, April "A deputation of un-
employed workingmen waited upon Lord
Mayor Evans to-day. The leader asked that
the halls of the city companies be turned
into labor bureaus. He wanted land to be
purchased by the Government on which the
unemployed could be set at work, and he
wanted relief works to be started. The
Lord Mayor replied that he would require
time to consider these novel proposals.
A meeting Of the unemployed was SUBJ
sequently held at Tower Hill. 1t was
presided over by the negro Wade, who,
during the past few days, has come
prominently before the public as leader.
He referred to the deputation appointed
yesterday to wait upon the Very Rev.
Robert Gregory, Dean of St. Paul's
Cathedral, and said that the deputation
found the Dean at luncheon. He received
them and said he would preach sermon in
the Cathedral Sunday in behalf of the un-
employed, and though he must have known
that some of the members of the deputation
were hungry he did not ask them to have
even cup of tea

B0opLERs IN NOVA SCOTIA.
Hard-CP Members Took Road Funds to
Meet Their Obligations,

HALIFAX, April 2.-[Spectal 1.-The peo-
pie of Nova Scotia are greatly excited over
the Doodle revelations. The opposition in
the Legislature charges that there has been
enormous fraud, corruption and perjury in
connection with the expenditure of $500, 900
on the public roads. Mr. Cohan, member
for Shelburne, has preferred formal charges
against Mr. Fraser, member for Victoria,
aud Messrs. Mcdonald and Mcpherson,
members from Cape Breton, of having re-
ceived large amounts of Government money
and converted it to their own use, instead
of paying it to the men who worked on the
roads.
These charges are being investigated by
the Committee on Privileges. The evil
dence of Alfred Brown shows that $4,000
was improperly received by Mcdonald,
and instead of expending it on the public
service he took q portion Of it to meet his
personal notes in the counties.

Safe Himself Bodily Injury.


DETROIT, April 2-"Prince" Michael
Mills answer to his wife's bill for o sepa-
ration has been filed. It denies the charges
of cruelty and sets forth that the reason
why Mrs. Mills was tied up was that she
threatened to do him great bodily injury,
and the only course open to him under the
circumstances was to hand her over to
the police or to restrain her privately. He
chose the latter.
Her accusations, continues the answer,
are the result of conspiracy with people
who are opposed to him on account of his
religious belief The property in his name,
it is asserted, is merely held in trust for
the other members OF the community. The
Judge modified the injunction, restraining
Mills from disposing of his property, SO
that he might get bondsmen. No attempt
will be made to bail the prisoner until Mon

PHILADELPHIA, April 2-lSpAcfaL l.
Senator Quay retired from city political
scenes to-day as quietly and silently As he
had come, taking late afternoon train for
Washington. There were few callers at his
rooms in the Continental Hotel. There was
at no time during the Senator's visit even
the usual number of the rank and file that
rarely fails to meet him, and very few were
from the country.
Judge Harry White came in from Indiana
and had a lengthy conference. Justice
Williams, who called in a purely social
way, was not so successful, as be failed to
meet the Senator. They were the leading
visitors.
81 can tell you nothing about the State
convention" said the Senator, preparatory
to going away. 81 am not interfering with
the delegates, and they will do exactly as
suits them best You can say that do not
propose to be in any part of the work, and
am not troubling myself in any wise.
''You are going to the national con-
vention?"
81 expect to. am a candidate for ma
tional delegate in my home district and ex-
pect to be elected"
During the day Mr. Quay visited the
custom house and met Collector Cooper
E1-Collector Martin, Naval Officer Powers
and Assistant Treasurer Walters comprised
the party. After this visit was over Mr.
Walters took occasion to say that "Presi-
dent Harrison will be renominSted, practi-
cally by reclamation.

at is not what he says so much as what
it will be.

candor even for Cooper: Things are NOV

side"

erS Two of them are Americans, Henry
Rosenfeld, of Chicago, and another whose

who is now playing and losing heavily is

the moral is being pointed that no one who
has ever won money at Monte Carlo can re-

Henry Rosenfeld IS, however, in London,
and has not returned to the whirling wheel
since he got the best of it. He says he does
not intend to either. ..
