hour, there is an impression general
enough to indicate that there is some
ground for II that in the fullness OF time
there will be very complete change In
all the offices not protected by the civil
service law, and that the appointments
10 the places will be fairly apportioned
among the Democratic workers.
SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS RECOMMENDED.
kilograms have been received at the
Treasury Department fromHNeW York
and other cities inquiring as to the
truth OF reports that special examina-
tions have been ordered of particular
National Banks. Rumors TO this effect
appear to have been started in various
commercial cities to-day. The founda-
tion for them seems TO be simply this:
The Comptroller Of the Currency has
issued circulars of instructions to bank
examiners generally enjOining special
diligence upon them at the present
time, but his instructions have no
specific reference to any particular
bank or banks in any one city. They
are general in scope and are intended
as a precautionary measure only.
The Russian extradition treaty is eX-
pected at the State Department Monday
and will probably be made public
through Presidential proclamation next
week. No additional formalities other
than the issuance Of the proclamation
are necessary.

An Odd INQUIRY. Surely.

LONDON, May 12.-The House Of Com
mons, sitting as committee OF the whole
on the home rule bill, to-day resumed the
debate on the motion made yesterday oy
Mr. George BARLEY, Conservative MEM
ber for North Islington, TO strike out the
first clause of the measure, motion which
practically means TO reject the whole bill.
The debate was marked by several scenes
of excitement, the most prominent OF
which occurred while T. W. Russell had
the floor. Mr. Russell, who, though a
Liberal, is opposed to home rule for Ire
land, was protesting against Ulster being
coerced into acquiescing in the establish
ment Of an Irish parliament, when voice
was heard asking: "What the devil are
YOU talking aboutm
John Mcneil and Thomas Sexton were
each accused of making the remark, but
denied having done So The chairman's
Intervention on appeal by Sir William Yer
non-Harcourt restored order and prevented
what promised well for a general squabble.
The committee proceeded to take vote on
Mr.. Bartley's motion, which was defeated,
300 members voting against 1t and 267 vot-
ing in its favor.

Indiana Republican. Pleased.

INp1ANAPoL1s, IND, May 12.-The In
diana Republicans who attended the con-
vention OF the National Republican League
at Louisville returned home last night,
much pleased with the action OF the con-
vention."
Indiana was consulted in everything"
said Secretary MilliKen, of the State Com
mittee. "We had present the largest dele
CATION OF any State, and our headquarters
in the Calf House were the center OF at
traction. The question all the time was,
what does Indiana wantp We were in
position to get just what we wanted, and
we got it, We were able TO control the
action of the National Committee in some
things, aud we got our man for President
of the League. Many Of the delegates be-
lieved up until almost the last minute that
Indiana would have candidate for Presl-
dent and when they learned that we were
for Mr.. Tracy, that gentleman was elected
with ease. Take it all the way through it
was successful meeting, and one of which
the Indiana Republicans have the right to
feel proud"
An evening paper will say: at is well
known TO Republicans who are on the in
side that the leaders Of the party in Indi-
ana who represented the State at the con-
vention knew the wishes of eX-Presldent
Harrison in connection with the conven-
tion, and that they carried them out TO the
letter. The men who represented the State
at the convention have reason TO believe
that the ex-President is well pleased with
the work of the convention and with the
action of the National Committee. 1t is
said that the ex-President took unusual
interest in the deliberations of the conven-
tion and in the meeting Of the National
Committee. Some of the delegates from
Indiana did not hesitate to say to represen'
tatives from other States that it was the
general belief that Harrison would be called
on to lead the Republican party in 1896.

VERY MUCH COMPLICATED.
The Alliance VIII Call at CorintO-The
Atlanta viii See the Canal Work,


WASHINGTON, d. c., May 12.-Ac-
cording 10 information received by Min
lister Guzman, big battle will probably
take place to-day between the opposing
forces in his country.
DR.. Guzman said he had Just received
a message from a friend dated at San
Juan Del SCR, in which affairs were re-
ported as directly opposite to the way
they were pictured in a message to Sec
retary Gresham yesterday from Newall,
Consul. So far from the government
forces being demoraliZed, this dispatch
represented that the army Of the gov
ernment was In good order and would
meet the revolutionary forces to-day in
a battle for supremacy.
A telegram was received at the Navy
Department to-day from the command
lag officer OF the Atlanta, stating that
she would leave New York for Grey
town, Nicaragua, today. When asked
what caused the delay In getting the
Atlanta ready for sea, naval officer
replied:
''Navy yard fever" (which is depart
ment slang for dislike to give up soft
BERTH. He added that she was coaled
and supplied for three months cruise.
A dispatch was also received from
San Francisco stating that the Alliance
would be ready TO leave for COrintO,
Nicaragua, to-day instead of Saturday.
The marked contrast between the
promptitude OF the Alliance and the un-
readiness of the Atlanta naturally ex-
cites comment In the department. Sec
retary Herbert, however, has not yet
had an official opportunity Of express
ing his views on the subject, inssmuch
as he only returned from New York
this morning, and after a brief visit to
the department, went over to the White
House to the Cabinet meeting.
Secretary Gresham said to-day that
he had received no additional informa-
ton from Nicaragua since yesterday
and that the situation OF affairs In that
country was so serious and complicated
that be begged to be excused from ex-
pressing any opinion on the subject one
way or the other.
The Alliance will probably remain at
CorIntO long enough only to ascertain
the situation of affairs, and will then
continue her cruise southwark along
the coast so as TO DE able to guard the
interests Of Americans in the cities now
in possession Of the revolutionist party.
There is no direct information that the
insurgents have attempted TO destroy
the canal plant or TO interfere seriously
with the progress of the work. The Off
GERS of the Atlanta will make a special
investigation on this subject, and will
see that the canal property Is protected.
Senior Roman Mayorga, who was for
merly the secretary OF the Nicaragua
legation is in the city with his wife.
He has received dispatches from mem
Der OF his wife's family setting forth
the results Of the revolution practically
the same as printed yesterday. Senior
Mayorga contradicted the statement of
DR.. Guzman that the revolution was in
cited and supported by New York capi-
taliStS.

They Go.

New YORK, May 12.-The United
States cruiser Atlanta, under order TO
90 TO Nicaragua, took her departure
from the international feet In the
North river to-day. Orders TO sail were
received from Washington two days
ago. The work OF coaling and putting
In provisions was not finished until late
this afternoon, and II was 6 o'clock be-
fore the vessel moved down the river
and proceeded 10 sea.
The Jean Bart, whose fierce appear
ance attracted so much attention at the
naval review, also left port to-day; she
goes to Cherbourg, France. The other
French ships. Arethuse and Hussard,
will not leave for some time. The Kaiser
in Augusta is coaling and will sail for
Germany next week. The Russian
cruiser General Admiral, will leave for
Russia next week. The General Admiral
is the training ship OF the Russian
navy and must be In home waters In
June when the annual examinations
take place. The Russian Consul Cen
eral Alex Olarovsky and Mrs. Olarovsky

who Is serving as Lieutenant In the
Demitrl DonskoI at ball at Sherrys

MANY MORBBANKS FAIL
Small Concerns Connected With the
Columbian National,
LOCATED IN INDIANA, OHIO AND
Illinois, Close Their Doors For
Lack of Funds When Their
Backing Was Withdrawn.
None Of the Failures Are
Large.

INDIANAPOLIS, May Estate Auditor
Henderson was notified this morning that
the Commercial State Bank OF RusslaYllle
could not meet its demands, owing to the
suspension Of the Columbia National Bank
OF Chicago. The bank was organized j an
uary l. 1892. j. Il. FindleY is President
and e. w. Miles Cashier.
1t is thought that the directors were pan
ic stricken by the failure Of the Columbia,
and that they should have continued ousi'
ness. The State law does not authorize
the Auditor to take charge of the bank
State Examiner Teeter will go to Russia
vile at once. The last report made oy
the bank showed resources ana liabilities
of $73, ,62S. The Commercial Bank is one OF
about twenty banks in Indiana that are
thought to be connected with the Columbia
National Bank. Perhaps as many private
banks are also related TO the Chicago con-
Germ TO some extent. Most Of the former
have been organized within the past four
years. The Portland Bank that suspended
Yesterday was the largest of the group.
This was the first State bank to close In
Indiana in twenty years and the records at
the Auditors Office show that none OF them
ever failed The State banks were recent
ly examined and their reports indicated
that they were in substantial condition.

GROUNDLESS RUMORS
Trouble Between Wigger ana
Corrigan-satollrs Trip to New YORK.

C0rrigan-Satollrs Trip to Ne" AorA'
WASHINGTON, May 12.-The state
ments respecting the attitude OF Bishop
Wigger, of New Jersey, and some OF
the priests of his diocese toward the re-
ception to be given next Monday night
byFather Corrigan to Monsignore Satolll'
the Pope's legate TO the United States,
contained in New York papers to-day
were read with interest at the Catholic
University. According TO these
statements Bishop Wigger had de-
clined to attend the reception
and dinner for the reason that Father
Corrigan's relations with himself pre-
vented him accepting the invitation to
be present and the priests who had ex-
pressed their intention not to partake
of Father Corrigan's hospitality were
moved thereto because long established
custom requires Catholic dignitary
upon coming into diocese to pay his
first visit to the bishop. That tue
legate was not to observe this custom
but to ignore it, was held by them,
it was said, TO be an insult
to Bishop Wigger. 1t was intimated
that important and serious results
would follow this visit of Mgr. Satolli,
because Of the antagonisms aroused,
and that a powerful secret influence
was at work against him. In response
to these assertions, it was said to-day
at the University that Mgr. Satolli
would make no statement for puollca-
tion. 1t is understood, however, that
the criticism upon Satolli for
violation Of the custom regard
ing the precedence of visits Is
unfounded. There is good authority
for the statement that he at first pro-
posed to spend Sunday with Bishop
Wigger at Seton Hall, but that subse-
ouent misunderstanding necessitated a
change, which will take the legate to
the Convent of the PassiOnist Fathers
on that day and to Father Corrigan's on
Monday. The Monsignore will be ac-
companied to Hoboken tomorrow by
DR.. O'Gorman, OF the Catholic Univer-
sIty, who goes to fulfill long standing
engagement to lecture at the convent on
the 14th inst.
NEW YORK, May FEATHER Cor
rigan, OF Hoboken, is quoted as saying
to-day that be had sent letter to Bish-
op Wigger inviting him to be present
at the services on Sunday and meet
Mgr. Satolli. The Bishop had written
in reply and had accepted. The Bishop
would be on hand and would accom-
pany the Archbishop from South Orange
to Hoboken. The venerable priest said
at no time had there been the slightest
clash between him and his superior in
the matter of the Archbishop's recep-
tion.

Wall street Rnmor.

New YORK, May PA report was cur.
rent in Wall street that the Comptroller OF
the Currency had ordered an Immediate
examination into the affairs OF four city
banks. Mr.. Hepburn, the former Comp
troller of the Currency, was asked if such
thing had been contemplated while he
was in office, and he SAID that as far as he
knew, nothing Of the kind mad been thought
of. He said that the report was probably
without foundation, for the Clearing House
Committee of this city had no doubt Of
the solvency of the banks, and certainly
the Comptroller could have no better in
formation. A prominent bank president in
this city said that in his opinion there was
no truth in the report. He had seen the
Bank Examiner to-day, and he had not
been ordered to make any such investiga-
tion.

schooners in a storm.

HALIFAX, n. S, May 12.-The schooner
Esperauce, Captain Richard, which sailed
from the Magdalene Islands, six weeks ago,
with crew of ten besides the captain, on
a sealing voyage in the Gulf Of St. Law
renee, has been lost with all hands. Part
of her deck and cabin foated ashore at
South Beach.
1t is supposed that she ran into the Ice
on Columo oian Shoal off Grindstone during
a snow storm on Easter Monday, and was
crushed by ice and sunk. A schooner was
seen in that dangerous spot before the
snow squall set in, but after it cleared
nothing could be seen OF the vessel.
Great anxiety is felt for the safety Of the
schooner Marie Ann, which sailed from
Little Bras Dor, two months ago, for the
sealing grounds, and has not been heard OF
since.
