NEW YORK, Aug. S.-The Madison

not open its doors tomorrow. Its cap
ital is impaired to about $4,000. The
refusal of the st. Nicholas bank to con-
tinue to act as clearing agent precipi-

Will Be Investigated by a Com
mittee-The Trust Company
Pleads for the Same Kind of a
Deal as Similar institutions
County and City Attorneys
Called I'm.
The board of equalization was in ses-
sion yesterday with Aid. Van Slyke in
the chair. Gen. Bishop, in behalf OF the
ST. Paul Trust company, stated that for
several years that company had been
assessed the same as banks, at 20 per
cent on the capital stock. This year a
raise had been made. He desired that
an equalization be made so that it should
not be taxed heavier than similar COM
panies. He had no complaint TO make
at the rate, provided other companies
be raised. A return had been made
showing the capital stock and other per-
sonal property to be worth S227,000. On
this statement the board fixed the as
seSsment at Sl5S, 49l in place of at the
face value of the stock and other per-
sonal property.
The cases of the G. F. Swift COM
houses of Chicago, were considered, and
all the packing companies were laid
over for consideration on Saturday
morning at 10 O'Clock.
The sworn statement of c.. V. Sloggy,
showing 5000 worth of property, was ac-
cepteG. After hearing a statement rel
alive to the Standard Oil company the
sworn statement of $500 gave place to
an assessment of $4,000.
A hearing was had relating to tine as
Sessment of the Northwestern Fuel
company, which made return of S12,
800. Several members Of the board
favored a large increase over that fig
ure. L. d. O'Brien appeared for the
company. and, while admitting that the
capital stock is 800, 900, SAID that it is
chiefly used in the purchase of mines
out of the state and in establishing
docks, etc, at other places. The mat
ter was referred to the city and county
attorneys for opinions as to whether the
capital stock should be assessed, and
the matter will be taken up at the meet
ing Saturday morning.
Yesterdays meeting developed the
fact that additional firms are leasing
property from railroad companies tor
warehouse purposes. MeSSrS. Lavallee,
Warren and Franklin were named as

The Dickinson company asked that
the valuation of its store be placed at
$500 instead of 81 0,000, and the change
was made.

Telephones In a Storm.

A celebrated English oculist warns
the public against the use of the tele-
phone during thunderstorm, and re-
lates an incident that occurred to a
friend of his, who went to the tele-
phone for the purpose of acquainting
the central exchange at distant city
that storm was approaching and the
instrument would not be available IN
til it was over. The moment he put
his ear to the telephone a flash oc-
Cured, and he received blow of such
severity that he was sent across the
small chamber against the opposite
wall. Otherwise the tenn
porary but very. rude shock, which he
described as 'a severe box on the ear''
he was unhurt. In this respect he
was more fortunate than an artillery
man, who while using the telephone in
the field during some recent military
maneuvers, was struck dead by pow
erful current of electricity which
passed over the telephone.

SHERMAN LOST THE BASKET,
The Senator Accompanied His Bride tt
Market on One Occasion.


Market on One Occasion.
Mrs. Sherman invariably goes to
market several times a week, says
Washington. So do other senator's
wives, and sometimes a great states
man goes along just for amusement, or
from a sense of duty. Mrs. Sherman
had watched Senator Henderson, Of
Nebraska, escorting his wife through
the market, even occasionally Juggling
the provision basket Mrs. Sher-
man thought her husband might show
her the same attention, and quoted
Mr.. Henderson to him till in simple
despair Mr.. Sherman consented to be
annexed on market day. He went the
whole rope and even carried the basket,
but Mrs Sherman has never mentioned
market to him since He lost the
basket and she lost him, for a time.
and, when the great fnancier was safe
in his own home, he announced in big
type that Senator Henderson and all
the rest of both houses might 60 to the
market every day of their lives, but as
for him, John Sherman, as long as he
possessed his mental faculties, he
would never be persuaded into going
again.

many tragedies resulting from the lack

been sober and industrious, discouraged
by the impossibility of getting work,

way out of their trouble than to put an

impressiveness of the ''object lesson

AN EXECUTIVE SESSION.


When word was wired to the Chicago
and Minneapolis wheat markets the
other day that the senate had gone into
executive session. the bears got scared,
rushed to cover. and put wheat up a
cent a bushel.
That shows how much the bears
knew about an executive session.
What the senate does in executive
session, the Lord and the few senators
who attend only know. But this much
is certain, the legislation of the country
on national questions is not done in Sc
cret executive session.
1t is probable that the senate met
and Endorsed the nomination of John
Smith, Of Oklahoma, for consul to Da-
honey. That is about the size of the
labors performed by the senate in ex-
ecutive session. Or, perhaps they read
few petitions eulogizing the virtues of
and campaign subscriptions of Monocle
Van Allen.
But why should this scare the bears
into showing wheat up the list one cent
bushel. The bears must be getting
somewhat bysterical. In the presence
OF the greatest bank surplus and specie
holdings known in New York, Boston
and Philadelphia in years, and with
cash drug in the market in the prin-
cipal money centers of the country, the
bears might well be a triae hysterical
at rumors from Washington. But 1t is
probable that they will not next time
be flushed by an executive session
rumor.
About the time the bears had COW
cred their contracts at a cent extra,
they discovered their "bulP' and saw
wheat drop back again with a dull thud,
leaving them one cent bushel short
ON the deal. So they paid one cent a
bushel on all their transactions for the
privilege of learning that financial
questions are not settled in secret ses-
sion. 1t is probable that their high
priced knowledge OF executive sessions
will stick. They will not need to in
vest any more money for instruction on
that point for few weeks at least.

A HISTORIC BLUNDER.
Jefferson Davis Was Once Arrested In At

Jefferson Davis Was Once Arrested In At
lanta as q Piclspoeket.
1t is not generally known that JEFF
ferson Davis was once arrested and
held prisoner in Atlanta charged with
being a,piekpoeket.
In 1857 or 1858 Mr.. Davis, who was
then secretary of war, was travelling
from Richmond to Mississippi. On
the same train was Sam Noble, the
founder of the big iron works in
Rome and Admission.
Mr.. Noble had but recently come
over from England and was on a
prospecting tour. He had with him
small hand satchel containing
81, 900 in gold. When Atlanta was
reached, the dismay of Mr.. Noble
may be imagined when he found his
satchelgone. He gave the alarm, and
city marshal e. p, Hunnicut and his
deputy. Ben WiIliford, responded at
once. They learned that a quiet, un'
assuming man had occupied the seat
withiNoble, and after ashOrt search
they found, placed him under'arTest
and carried him to Washington Hall.
The stranger took his arrest very
uuietly and said: i'Is not Allison
Nelson the mayor of your town.
Well, think if you will bring him
here can be identified
The arrest of a person charged
with picking pockets was unusual IN
Atlanta, and the prisoner was sur
rounded by gaping, staring crowd
The mayor came, and as he crossed
the threshold he glanced around the
room until his eyes rested on the
prisoner.
With a shout Of joy, his arms out
stretched, he sprang forward.
Jeff Davis, God bless your soul
Where did you come FRONT Gentle
men, fought under this man in 1.-THE
Mexican war. He is the secretary
of war.
Introductions and explanations fol
lowed. The officers began another
investigation and finally recovered
the money from the negro train por
ter.

CountaLeo Tolstoi has received in
