Washington, June 14.-Paul Trammell
Is in Washington tonight He arrived
to-day and here he viii remain until he
wins or is beaten for collector of internal
revenue. Representative Turner is urging
his candidate, Mr. Clements, but Mr.
Tramme1l has the balance of the delega-
tion, with the exception of one or two,
and both senators. Mr.. Trammell is a dis
Greet man and talks little, still he said to-
night that he expected to win.
President Burbago and Director Kay
Of the broken First National Bank of
Brunswick left for New York to-day,
but will return on Monday. In further
talk to-day the controller expressed
his unwillingness to allow any closed
bank to reopen, as experience had de-
monstrated that such rarely recover their
lost stprestlge. Unless the entire liabilities
of the bank are paid, which is deemed
unlikely, receiver will be named in few
days. The Atlanta Journals Washington
special of June 12 stated that the difficulty
with the controller was the payment of
the Indebtedness of the president and
directors. This is not the case, for the
bank examiners report shows President
Burbage's Indebtedness to be SAG, 900, Di-
rector Kay's, $1,000; Director Rus
sells, $500; Director Keenan's, $500,
and Director Walkers, of Darien,
$4,000, while the aggregate sum
of the discounts is $435, 900 The controller
is favorably impressed with Attorney and
Director Kay and will probably appoint
him counsel for the receiver, an unusual
procedure by the way.
