CHARLES FOSTER, Ex-Governor of
Ohio and q member of President
Harrison's cabinet, made a very bad
financial failure; it was even a dis
honest one. His bank had $780,
900 liabilities and only $4,000
assets. This state of things was
caused by Foster who overdrew his
own account; he took the money OF
other people and sunk it in his own
speculations. Even a Republican
newspaper in bis own State com
pares his act with burglary and
forgery.

THE FINANCIAL PROBLEM

This is tie engaging topic of these
times when people throughout the
land are looking for a remedy from
present depression. The SENTINEL
is DESTROYS that the question shall be
looked upon from different points of
view, and we take occasion to repro

previous views may have been erron-

who lives in a cabin. Every business

of the national government. There

can take and feel assured that we

let us try to solve it the best way we

acting at the present time. We

summary by Hon. John B. Herder-

His summary is as follows:

government vaults should at once be

TWO GASES FROM CHATHAM.

The Supreme Courts Decision Affirm

The supreme court IN affirming the deois-
ion Of the Chatham superior court in the
case OF the Savannah and Ogeeehee Canal
| Company vs.. Shuman, says:
The charter of the Savannah and Ogeechee
Cansl company requiring that the company
snal keep its canal in q navtgable condition,
tne duty Of go doing is imperative, and per
Iormance OF the SANG may be compelled by
The writ OF mandamus may issue upon the
application OF private citizen engaged in the
luInoer business, and, therefore. specially in
terested 10 the navigation for which the canal
was chartered, who sustains damage by viola
ton OF the charter which is not shared in by the
general public.
Mandamus is a discretionary remedy and IL
Is not per Sc an abuse Of discretion to order the

the corporation (Which answer is taken as true
on demurrer) that It has no funds nor any
means OF obtaining SUCH" aud 'ft said canal
we're put in naYjgable condition it would not be
profitable to operate it." SO long as the cor
poration retains its franchise the unprofitable-
ness OF the same is immaterial; and although
want OF means may avail q reason for not
! lnnicting punishment for disobedience of the
Writ, II affords no conclusive reason against or
der1ng the writ TO issue.
The decision of Judge Harden, late on the
city court bench, in the case OF the Weppoo
Mills vs.. the Commercial Guano Company,
an action for damages, has been reversed.
Supreme court notes say:
The purchaser of goods cannot recover of the
seller damages for nondelivery measured by
his profits on particular contract OF resale and
by his losses, on account of inability to perform
that contract, unless the seller at the time of
making the contract Of sale had notice of such
contract of resale. In the present case there
was no evidence Of notice. It was, therefore,
error to charge the jury thus: You have the
right to include what it may have been COM
PEELED TO pay out, or what 1t may have lost In
the way of profit, If 1t be shown TO you in figures
