ArOn Burr's Last Relative.
Philadelphia Times.

hllauelpnla lines.
The last even distant relative of
Aaron Burr is dead. He was a
halter. He patented hat machine
years ago. Up to that time hat
bodies had been made by hand.
Burr's machine 50 revolutionized
the business that 100000 hats
were made upon his machine in one
twelve-month. For many years he
virtually had monopoly of the hat
trade, and when his patent expired
he had amassed a great fortune. At
the breaking out of the war he
practically organized the famous
Ellsworth Zouaves and contributed
liberally to our early military estab-
lishment. He was in many respects a
singular man, but pushing, ener-
getic citizen. His father was Aaron
Burr's first cousin, and his grand.
mother sister of Jonathan Ed
wards. He sprang from that large
Burr family that once lived neal
Coopertown, N. Y. Now that he ii
dead it will be exceedingly hard t(
find another man bearing the nam.
of Burr who is even remotely con
nected with the ill-fated but bril-
liant man who was once such
power in our political and socia
life.

Mr.. John 7. Ellington, a nephew
Of the State Librarian, and the Sher-
if Of Johnston county, who arrived
here yesterday, brings an interest
ing piece of news from Clayton. He
says that W. r Pool, who was once
prominent farmer and who de-
sired to be postmaster at Clayton.
had been arrested and taken to
Smithfeld and placed in Jail. It
appears that Pool became angry be-
cause he did not get the appoint
ment and made plan to burn the
town. He had made threats to do
this. Monday be spoke to a negro
man, Hannibal Smith, and told him
that he wanted him to set fire to the
barns Of Messrs McCullers, Honey
cutt, Howe and Ellington and the
livery stables Of Ellington & Bar
Der. He made an engagement
with the negro to meet him later in
the day and to then give the latter
regular instructions. The negro
went to several people and told
them what Pool had proposed. Two
men, McCullers and James Hinton
secreted themselves in POOLS barn
and overheard ali he told the ne.
gro. The plan was that Smith
should take some balls of cotto1
saturated NTH kerosene and throw
them into the buildings referred te
above, Pool was arrested and or
his person were found the balls o.
cotton ready for use. He was
quickly taken to Clayton and jailed
after due committal by a magis
trate. Feeling against him is quit
high at Clayton, it is understood
Upon the further investigation O
Mr.. Ellington's report it was ascer
tanned that the facts that he statee
were essentially correct and tina
POOLS animosity was aroused b.
the position the citizens in question
took against him in the postmaste
fight. The case involves, clearly,
question of law, but in some part
of free America the defendan
would be tried and convicted with
out an empaneled jury.

Bankers and Merchants Ask the Presi-
dent to Call an Extra Session at Once.
By Southern Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, June 28-Secretary
Carlisles mail this morning was
loaded with letters from bankers,
commercial men and others, calling
on the President to convene Con-
gress at once in extra session to con-
slider financial legislation. The
pressure is great, but there is semi
official authority for the statement
that Congress will not be convened
before September.
A Cabinet officer, speaking OF the
financial situation, said this morn
ing, that the country had been
brought to its present financial con-
dition by the very men who were
now clamoring for an extra session
of Congress. They had reached
the end of thei: row, and could no
longer profit by speculation, and
wanted the government 10 come to
their relief, that they might again
enter upon al era of speculation.
There was no doubt, in his mind,
he said, that the repeal of the Sher-
man law would bring about the
much needed relief, whether tenn
porary Or permanent, time alone
could demonstrate. Still there was
no certainty, even now, that Congress
would repeal the Sherman law. The
House was more favorable to its
repeal than the Senate. He intima
ted that if the President were con.
vinced that Congress would imme
diately repeal the Sherman law, tina
body might be convened in extrs
session before September, but b.

By Southern Associated Press.
SAVANNAH, Ga, June 2S.-Argu-
msnt on the liability of the South
western Railroad on the tri-psrtite
mortgage was continued this morn
ing, and at the conclusion, Justice
Jackson announced his decree of
sale of the Central Railroad prop
erty. The three companies he held
were jointly liable on the tripartite
mortgage which is most peculiar
and well drawn instrument The
court decided that I per cent should
be paid or the tripartite bonds
before and after maturity; that the
Southwestern was liable for one
third of this mortgage and interest,
and that if that was not paid il
should be sold first, and that one
third realized; that the Central
from Macon and Atlanta was liable
for two thirds of the tripartite
mortgage and interest. The court
ranked the tripartite mortgage SIS a
first lien, AMI the $1,000, 600 out as
a lien only n the assets of the Cen.
tral Taxes due cities and counties
will rank as first mortgage. The
Receiver was ordered to give up al
leased lines not earning more thar
operating expenses.
