The Bank Closed Its Doors and tho Cashier
His Life.
NASHVILLE, Tenn, April III. Schardt
the defaultinR cashier of the Mechanics
Savings Bank and Trust company, died to-
night about nine O'Clock from congestion
of the brain. The bank made an assign
ment this morning for the benefit of all
creditors. Assets are placed at about
$200.000 nominal. and tho liabilities at
$150,000. All property of tho bank OF every
de ctiption was conveyed and the assignee
has two years to wind up affairs. The Of
fcers of the bank express confidence in the
belief that the assets will pay all debts.
Schardt transferred to the bank life in
surance policies amounting to $4,000, and
certain notes and real estate, and tho assets
exclusive Of those transferred by Schardt
amount to $161. 900. The largest debt due
the bank is SS6, 900, secured by mortgages

Other banks of the city transacted busi-
ness rs usual to-day and there was no ex-

HIS OWN COUNSEL.
Secretary Carlisle Refuses to Indicate His
Future Action

Secretary Carlisle Refuses to Indicate His
Future Action.
WASHINGTON. April 17.-secretary Car
Isle absolutely declines to outline his
future financial action. preferrinp to await
the arrival of an emergency before indi-
eating what he will do. He had this morn
ing an extended interview with Senator
Sherman, who has been twice secretary of
the treasury. and this afternoon conferred
with the president. Both Secretary Car
Isle and the president have been inundated
with telegrams from New York and other
points. An order for $l.125.000 in gold,
engaged tor export to- morrow, reduces the
free gold In the treasury to about 5000, 900.
The solicy to be pursued by the treasury
department regarding the financial situa-
tion was probably determined at the con-
sultation held this afte noon between SEQ
retary Carlisle and President Cleveland.
All efforts to learn the result of the con-
ference have thus far failed. The Star
says: Carlisle is understood to be op-
posed to the issuance of bonds. for the
present at least. 1t is his Judgment that
it would be preferable 10 utilize portion
of the gold reserve fund until it becomes
apparent that the issuance of bonds is an
absolute necessity.
Among officials of the treasury depart
ment not the least fear or apprehension is
expressed of any financial embari assment
growing out of the gold shipments. They
are satisfied, they say. that shipments arc
being forced by those who would be bene-
fitted by the issue of bonds, and ns soon az
brokers and bankers are positive their at
tempts to force the issue of bonds il useless
just so soon will gold shipments cease. 1t
Is understood there il some difference o
opinion between President Cleveland and
Carlisle. the president rather loaning to-
ward the issuance of bonds should FREQ
gold be entirely exported. Ii is thought.

COUNTERFEIT COIN.
Two More Arrests in the Case Now In
teresting Americus.

Americas, Ca, April 23.-The counter
felt money case developed new sensa-
ton at 3 o'clock this morning, when Ed
Wyatt, the negro boy arrested for passing
the spurious coins, consented to tell where
he got them o He says they were given
him by w r. jackson, d white man in
this city.
jackson was at once arrested. He, of
course, denies any completely with the
negro. The boy is a nephew of Jackson's
cook and Jackson says he gave him some
money last night to buy provisions and
he may have given him a
bad dollar, but no facts developed to
sustain this statement. jackson was ar
rested at his house in East Americas.
With him was captured a lot of babbit or
other white metal and some other
evidences of guilt, but no molds Jack
son will be remembered as the young man
sent to Sing Sing several years ago for
rObbing the Americas postoffice while
clerk in the Office. 1t is now known that
Wyatt passed sixteen of these dollars
yesterday in each case receiving 95 cents
change in good money.
The clerk at Parker'S news stand at the
Sam depot is the only one known to have
refused the money just after he had
passed one on the clerk in the store of
Burt & Son, near by. This fact, and being
forced to take the one back passed in
Burt & Sons store, led to his arrest sew
eral hours later by DR.. Burt investigating
the case and reporting Wyatt's name to
Chief of Police J. B. Lamar Wyatt says
he obtained the money in IS lots from
Jackson, who did not make it but got it
somewhere; that jackson ordered a

that further investigation will lead to at
least one other arrest
Chief Lamar has created much amuse-
ment this morning by showing to gentle
men who wished to see the counterfeit
money two of the dollars, claiming one to
be good, and asking decisions as to which
was the good dollar. One gentleman went
