tackled by Vertigo.

Americas, Ga, May 13-At a meeting
of the stockholders of the bank of Ameri-
Gus to-day it was decided to permanently
suspend business and liquidate the affairs
of the bank. T. Wheatley was selected
TO take charge pending the settlement.
The assets will more than pay the deposi-

lose a large percentage of their holdings.

FLoRIDA's LEGISLATURE.
Several New Bills in the Senate-The
House Undoing Its Own Work.

Tallahassee, Fla, May l3.-In the Sen
ate this morning little business was trans
acted beyond the introduction of a.bill by
MIR. Genovar amending the charter of the
city of St. Augustine; one by Mr. Reeves
empowering women to vote in school cleo
lions; one by St. Clair-ADrams charging
the jurisdiction of courts of chancery
Mr. Abrams also put in bill authorizing
the employment of stenographer by
criminal courts in cases of felony. The
greater part of the session was consumed
in consideration of bills on second read
ing.
The business of the House was badly
mixed, and consisted largely in undoing
what had been done the day before
The passage of tee bill making the sale
of mortgaged property final without re
course to notes was reconsidered, as was
the vote by which was defeated the bill
granting power to county commissioners
to issue bonds for the building of
armories.
The bill relating to paying county Off
Gals was taken up discussed and finally
passed, as was the bill extending the
charter of the city of Lakeland.
The bill giving county judges the same
powers in certain cases of larceny as
circuit court Judges was also successful
The House and Senate both adjourned
early Many members have taken OPP
porUunity to make flying trip home. The
bad feeling aroused by the defeat of the
railroad commission bill in the Senate
still continues and no one need be sur
prised to see some such issue introduced
into state politics with all the trappings
of triumphant demagogy.
The joint subcommittee on finance and
taxation has just completed the revenue
bill, which will be printed and submitted
to the Legislature Wednesday next. Those
best informed consider the bill the best
that has ever come to the relief of the
state and much good may be expected
from its operations if it becomes a law
a result largely due to the eXertions Of
Senator Baya and Mr. Clark

READING REIMBURSEMENT.
The Plan Submitted for Ratification b.
tho Bnndnoislers.

PHILADELPHIA, May 29.--The Reading
railroad plan of readiustment is made
public. IL was approved by the board OF
managers ut meeting held on Saturday.
1t is based upon an issue of $50 900 coo OF
collateral trust bonds (s22 ,000, 600 to be now
issued the subscription being guaranteed
bya syndicate, and which are offered for
subscription by the security holders at 81
per cent. To these bonds the sharehoid-
srs are asked to subscribe at the rate Of Sl2
per STARE, the general mortgage and pref
erence income bondholders at the rate OF
10 per cent. of their holdings, and the de-
ferred income bondholders at the rate of
per cent. This will produce s19918, ,461.
The additional issue of these collateral
trust bonds, bringing the total issue up to
an aggregate Of $50, 000, 900 is for future use
for the improvement of the property, ~
The success of the plan is based upon an
agreement of the holders Of over 90 per
cent OF the general mortgage bonds to sell
their registered or coupon interest as they
shall mature until Jan. /, 1893, inclusive,
to be funded into per cent trust ccrtifi-
Gates. these bondholders having the option
to take the certificates at par 1t Is also
based upon the Philadelphia, Reading and
New England bondholders to accept pay
ment Of their interest for three and one
half years in the per cent. mortgage
bonds of said company at par, or to take
their property. Also upon the agreement
OF sundry other bondholders OF lateral
lines to fund their interest, extend their
loans or retake their property, and finally
voting trust for seven years, dating from
July !. 1893, is to be created, to which at
least 90 per cent. Of the Reading share
holders are to consent.
The voting trust Is to consist of Presi-
dent Harris, Receiver l.. p. Wilbur,
Thomas Mexican and two others to be
named hereafter by the board of managers.
The voting trust will elect a president and
board Of managers annually.
The plan, it will thus be seen, depends
mainly upon the assent of the holders of
more than so per cent. of the general mort
gage bonds and more than so per cent. of
stock, and this assent must be given on or
before June 81

Tho Royal Visitor Escorted to aa.l w
the Old Guard.
NEW York, May eD.-Princess Eulalie
and party were escorted to and from mass
Mt the cathedral yesterday by the Old
Guard. The avenue along the line was
densely crowded. At the church the crowd
was very great, but orderly. A squad OF
police kept q passageway into the cathed-
raj. and ms the princess entered she walked
over strips of carpet which had been laid
down from the curb to the door. In the
meantime the crowd had entered the great
cathedral, and thronged 1t to such an ex-
tent that the police had to bo called in to
clear the way and make room for those
entitled to place,
Father Layclle preached the mass ser
mon, in which, referring, to the royal
party he spoke as follows:
''It is my privilege and pleasure In your
names, in the name of all the Catholic peo-
pie In this broad country, to welcome the
infanta and her consort to America They
must be indeed hard to please If their
hearts do not swell with pleasure at the
sight OF this glorious country with its
energy, its freedom, and its marvellous re
sources.
Toe Catholic church is more strongly
founded in this country than in any other
In the world. Indeed, in no part of the
world is it more stronger, more energetic
and more powerful in its influence on the
hearts Of the people than it is in the United
States, and, indeed, inthe whole continent
OF America. They must remember, too,
with qualification, that it was through one
of their illustrious ancestors that the gates
of this great land were opened. We owe
their ancestors homage. and to them all
the respect we can give them"
In the afternoon the party took drive
In the park.
II numbers present and words Of praise
showered upon her were an index of the
occasion, tho reception rendered the prin-
cess by the Catholic club last night was a
tremendous success. The apartments of
the club were packed.

PHIExbELPHIA, May 2o.-The commits
sion appointed by the state of Pennsyl-
vania to investigate the waste of coal min
ing has made report in which it is stated
that for every ton of coal mined one and
one half tons have been lost The COM
mission estimates the quantity of anthra-
cite coal in the mines of the state at H.
245,000, 600 tons. and counting the loss at
40 per cent says it is safe to say that $685.
100000 tons can yet be marketed, which
would last 167 years, allowing an average
of $4,000, 900 tons per year, which was the
estimated shipment in 1902. Improvements
in methods of mining will increase the
amount to be marketed
