WAVE OF FAILURES REACHES
COLORADO.
William II. Mygatt, Broker and Rcai
Estate Dealer, Forced to Mako an
Assignment Eastern Banks Beoom-
Ing Afraid OF Western Securities.

DENVER, Col, May lT,--William II
Mygatt, banker and real estate dealer,
formerly of the firm of Mcintosh Il
Mygatt, assigned. The assets in the
schedules filed in the office of tho
county clerk are given at 1891 600, and
the liabilities at S507, $50. The princi-
pal creditor in Denver is the National
Bank OF Commerce, TO which Mr.. My
gait owes $4,000. Another large
cred tor here is William Palmer, in the
sum of Ss6,6G0, but he is secured
by mortgage on the oxford Hotel.
Many other Denver creditors hold

$40, 9oo, and Bank Of North America,
Boston, 5000
James Ii, Hopkins Is named as the
assignee. Mr.. Mygatt spoke as fol-
lows in regard TO the assignment: "A
conservative business man who has
examined my schedule says that tho
assets are really worth more than the
statement filed. AS the statement
stands will pay out and have n mar.
gin left. The property Is good, but
with tho present condition of the
market could not realize; hence l
made an assignment. l feel
confident Of being able to pay out
100 cents on the dollar" Continuing,
he said that the Eastern banks were
becoming afraid OF oil security and
are especially discriminating against
Western paper. The banks with whom
he had done business for long p Rod
recently refused TO take securities
which they had hitherto accepted, and,
in fact desired TO obtain,

A Story of Jen Davis.

News of the death of Abraham Lin
coin on the morning of April Is, 1865,
did not reach Jefferson Davis, who
was then making his way to the South,
until three days later. In his book,
1.-THE Rise and Fall OF the confederate
Governm nt," Mr.. Davis tells how he
heard OF the assassination: I'VE ar
rived at Charlotte on April Is, 1865, and
i there received, Mt the moment of dis
mounting, telegram from Gen. Brock
enridge announcing, on information
received from q N. Sherman, that Pres
ident Lincoln had been assassinated.
An influential citizen of the town. who
had come to welcome me, was stand
ing near me, and after remarking to
him in low voice that | had received
sad intelligence handed the telegram
to him. Some troopers encamped in
the vicinity had collected to see me;
they called to the gentleman who had
the dispatch in his hand to read 1t, no
doubt supposing II to be army news.
He complied with their request, and a
few, only taking in the fact but not
nppreciating the evil 1t portended,
cheered. as was natural at the news of
the fall of one they considered their
vented the story of my having read
the dispatch with exultation had free
scope for his Imagination, as he was
not present and had no chances to
know whereof he bore witness, even
if there had been any foundation of
truth for his fiction"

Word Given Mt Washington That There
Are No shaIy Banks Here.
WASHINGTON, May l7,--Thc indica.
tlons regarding the banking situation
In Chicago may be said to be fairly
good. Comptroller Eclsels received re.
ports from the examiners saying that
they had made tour Of the banks of
Chicago, including in particular u
number which were supposed to
be shalsy, and their reports, to
use the language of the comp
troller, indicated that there were mo
shaky banks In Chicago" This was
exceedingly gratifying to the Treasury
officials In view of tho rumors which
have been abroad imputing all sorts of
speculative methods to number of
Chicago bankers and predicting
disaster rs n result. The reports re-
ccived indicate that tho crisis, so fur
as Chicago is concerned, Is over.
As to the failed banks, officials OF
the Chemical National have written,
giving very flattering promises OF
their ability to assume business with
an abundance of capital and thor
oughly new organization. The Comp
tro.ler of the Currency will undoubt.
eddy make very rigid requirements Of
the Chemical National befo @ IL will
be permitted to resume business Ho
said to day that recognition would not
only necessitate a new list of Off, ials,
but new methods as well, and also an
assurance that the bank had some flu
turc before it other than organize again
to suspend.
Affairs Mt the Columbia National, as
they 81 WHY develope and are wired on
to Washington, seem to grow worse.
Antt or eSptr accountant was ordered
on the work to-day. Comptroller Eckels
means to push this investigation rs
rapidly as possible, and 1t was mani
fest from his actions to-day that he
expects to develop n complicated state
Of affairs. Tho banks methods seem
10 have been IRREGULAR IL not illegal.
IL may be stated positively that there
is no ope of its resumption Of bus ness.
AS the investigation proceeds tho
mcager telegraphic advices from Chi
cago do rot indicate that President
Dwiggin' is increasing in tho estimn-
ton OF The treasury officials There
are many hints Of the disability that
some the cast iron features of the
bankin act may be called into opera
ton against certain bank officials.
When one OF the leading treasury Off
ials was asked as to this no said: ave
shall have to await the investig alton

The Cat and the Bible.

1t seems strange that no mention of
the cat occurs in the Bible or in any
Assyrian record. Even in India, Prof.
Max Muller is quoted as saying that it
was but recently known as a domestic
animal. It's Sanscrit name is Marjara,
from IA root, meaning to clean, from
the creatures habit of licking itself at
its toilet. The cats housing habits
were well known TO the Romans, and
even to the Etruscans, as shown by
antique gems and even wall paintings.
