pEPosIToRs SAFE.
The Oglethorpe and First National
Will Pay All in Full.

Brunswick, Ga, May 26.-It is now con-
sidered certain that the OglethOrpe Bank
will not resume business, but it is equally
certain that no depositor in either bank
will lose a cent. While it is not believed
that the stockholders in the Oglethorpe
Bank will realize anything on their stock
they will hardly be assessed, as much of
the paper the bank holds can be collected.
The First National Bank will probably be
reOrCanized on n Sl50.000 basis, just one
half of the former capital stock Col. w
L. Kay, one of the best business lawyers
in the state, is vice president of the First
National and is working hard to place
il on its feet again. A meeting of the
depositors will no doubt be held soon and
a proposition made to them to take good
negotiable paper for their claims, paya-
bic on different dates and to resume their
business with the bank. As the largest de-
pOsitOrs are liberal-minded business men
working for the good of Brunswick, they
will probably help Col Kay in his efforts.
1t is evident here now that it will be
to the interest of the depositors
TO arrange some way for the bank to re-
sumo, even if only for the purpose of
gradual liquidation, for the forced
methods OF a receiverShip would prove not
only disastrous to the people who owe,
but to the depOsitOrs as well. The stock
holders and creditors of the First Ma
tiOnal will no doubt turn over the man
agement of the bank to the creditors and
depOsitors if they will come together to
reopen the doors, and in a short time it is
thought this plan will be laid before the
people.
The building and loan associations are
helping Brunswick a great deal by lend
ing money to their stockholders, many of
whom are building, and this money dis
tributed through the different channels
of trade is relieving the pressure to some
extent. None of the agencies represented
have shut down on the people and their
action is appreciated. Some of the mer-
chants have quit crediting and are bring
ing their business down to a strictly cash
basis, but this action on their part is a
move many would have profted by if it
had been started long ago.
r. r. Hobbs of Albany, Goodyear &
Kay, attorneys for Morris Mayer and
Arson Tucker of Albany and the East
Tennessee railway, filed a petition for an
injunction to-day to restrain the insurance
company from paying Mrs. Max Ullman
SOD, 600 on her husbands life, and endeav-
Oring to subject this fund to the payment
of debts of Mayer Il Ullman, and Samuel
Mayer, Crovatt and Whitfield represent
Mrs. Ullman.
Rumors effecting the solvency of Kaiser
Bros, wholesale dry goods merchants,
are untrue. Kaiser Bros. state their
ability to pay 81 for every 81 they owe,
and their Indebtedness is very small, if
any. They are. reported favorably upon
by the banks.

ALBANY,s BANKS SOLID.
Only One Mercantile Firm Hurt by the
Failures at Brunswick.

Albany, Ga, May 26.-F'or two or three
days past rumor has been current on the
streets to the effect that one of the banks
of this city and several business houses
had been affected by the financial cyclone
in Brunswick. To get at the truth of
these rumors, which, if undenied, were
liable to effect the business interests of
the city, inquiry was made to-day with
the result of ascertaining that neither of
the local banks are in any way involved
in the failures of the banks in Brunswick
or elsewhere. A business house, however,
which does an enormous business and
commands unlimited capital, will lose
about $l5, 900 through Mayer & Ullman's
failure, but this loss the firm is well able
to shoulder, and has already prepared to
meet when the obligation falls due From
the best of information this is the abso-
lutte truth of Albany's connection with
Brunswick's financial crash. The MORN
ING News correspondent has the most
absolute assurance that the banks of this
city were never in better condition, are
making money and meeting all demands
which are being made upon them. The
bank officials are men of the most CON
servative character and are holding their
business in the plain channels of banking
safety. For the past ten years Albany
has enjoyed a remarkable freedom from
business failures and this reputation she
will maintain

Sandersville. Ga, May 26.-Gov Nor
then has offered rewards of 5000 each for
the arrest with evidence to convict of the
white caps who assaulted and murdered
Junius Lawrence in the lower part of
Washington county last Sunday Sew
eral arrests have been made,

Peacock and Rogers were brought here

thorough Investigation of those who are
under arrest. II is believed that these
two men were implicated in the crime.
DR. Peacock was sent for Sunday TO dress
the wound of man who had
been shot in the arm, and the
fact that this man was wounded and the
matter kept secret led the people to sus-
pect that he was one of the white caps
and that Or. Peacock was aware of the
fact. The wounded man claims that
he accidentally shot himself, but the
range of the ball makes this seem doubt
ful. u is supposed that he was struck by
q ball that was intended for Junius Law
renee. IL is an ugly affair throughout.

oLINCH CoUNrY's FIGHT.
The Election Over the Removal of the
County Site to Dupont.

Waycross, Ga, May 26.-The election
for the purpose of deciding whether or
not the county seat shall be removed from
bonneville to Dupont, which will be held
in Clinch county tomorrow, will be the
most exciting ever held in the county.
Great preparations are being made to
have big barbecues and speakings at
every precinct in the county. The people
of the county are about equally
divided in opinion on the question
now confronting them. Everybody is
excited to a high pitch and many people
who have been friends all their lives are
now bitter enemies toward each other.
The Dupont enthusiasts claim that Dupont
is a live, progressive town with bright
future before it. and that the court house
should be removed to that place. They
are working hard to secure the victory by
soliciting votes everywhere. The little
village of bonneville, which is noted for
its shady streets and quiet citizens,
has awakened from its lethargy
and is thoroughly aroused on
the question. The local pride
of the little village is at stake, and
those in favor of the court house remain
ing at bonneville are determined on win
ming the fight, if work and enthusiasm
will prove effective. For weeks the ex-
element in the county has been growing
steadily and the result of the election will
be watched with interest. From the
present outlook Dupont will get the court
house by a small majority of votes, but
the prospect may change tomorrow morn

TRAIN wREcKERs AT WORK.
Two Attempts at Derailment Made
Near Albany.

Albany, Ga, May 26.-In the past two
days two attempts have been made to
wreck Savannah, Florida and Western
trains near this city by placing obstruc-
tions on the track. In the first instance
the train was stopped before the obstruc-
ton w as reached but in the second in
stance the obstruction was run into and
resulted in the train being derailed and
the track torn0up for some distance. A
bad accident was only averted because
the train was running at a very low rate
of speed, the engineer being on the look
out and expecting an attempt to wreck
his train.
About month ago two attempts were
made to wreck trains on the Brunswick
and Western near Sumner, but were I'M
successful, owing to the watchfulness of
the engineer. The wrecker, whoever he
is, seems to have spite against the
Plant system, but, notwithstanding de
tectives have been trying to run him
down, he has so far eluded them and baf-
fled all their efforts.

OoNauEsT,s FAILURE.
The Firm to Pay in Full Soon and
Get On Its Feet Again.


Brunswick, Ga, May 26.-The Bruins
wick and other creditors of P. L. Con-
quest & Co, large lumber and crosstie
dealers of this state and Virginia, have
been notified that the firm will soon pay
all their Indebtedness and relieve them
selves from the receivers hands. The
placing of this firm in the hands of re
ceiver was mutually agreed upon by the
creditors at meeting held here some
weeks ago. The members are all honor
able business men and have worked for
the interest of their creditors. The
creditors have never lost confidence in
them. Their failure was due to the plac-
ing of the Philadelphia and Reading
road in the hands of re
ceiver. The road owed Philadelphia
brokers and Conquest & Co. held $4,000
worth of the brokers' paper, which had
been good.
The downfall of the brokers forced
Conquest & Co. to take up their paper at
one days sight, and they could not do it,
To protect themselves and their creditors
they called a meeting and Stated the
case.
Their assets were more than their liza
bilities by great deal, and have worked
out enough at this early date to place
them on their feet again in a perfectly
solvent condition.
They will pay out about $4,000 here
which will relieve a great deal of the
strain now on Brunswick.
