North Carolina Democrat. who holds a
prominent position under the Govern
ment and who for that reason does not
want TO be quoted. in conversation with

1.-THE politics Of North Carolina are
just now in a dickens Of "A tangle. Sena-
tor Vance through the Charlotte Obsery-
or. has formally declared war or Col
lectOr Simmons. of the Eastern district
Of the State Senator Vance states that
ne opposes the confirmation OF Simmons
because he opposed the nomination OF
one of his Vance's) particular friends
for a Federal position, and used his Off
cial pull as Chairman OF the Democratic
State Executive Committee 10 defeat III.
A. Gudger, "a kinsman of Senator Vance,
for the office of collector OF the Fifth
district Another objection urged is the
general one that Simmons is not a fit
man for the place. All this opposition
10 Simmons is because of the determine
ti0n of Vance TO defeat Senator Ran
som, who is a candidate for reelection
The situation in the State is more critical
than l have ever known il before, owing
to the excellent organization of the Popu-
lists and Republicans. If these parties
fuse. as is probable. the Legislature will
not elect a Democrat 10 succeed Senator

FOSTORIA. O., Feb. 1.-THE report Of

Foster and of Foster & Co has been
made 20 the committee OF creditors by
the expert accountants The liabilities of
the bank are shown 10 be S17l .20l. Of
which Sl69,500 Is as endOr8ers. The ap-
praised assets We're $3.50 but i'm the
nine months since the assignment the real
value OF the assets have shrunk TO Si3-
$40. OF which sl62s0 Is classed as sim
doubtful. consisting Of bills receivable and
unsettled The personal liabilities of
Charles Foster are S508. 25. The appraised
assets are S3ll2jl. but from this sum must
be subtracted the amount put up by Mr.
Foster as collateral, which reached $ll5.-
1856, leaving his net assets at Sl9S,77} The
worst feature Of the failure in regard tc

for the large amount Of endorsements.
The difference between liabilities and
assets is stated 20 be- the result OF
shrinkage in values held by the bank
and the extraordinary number OF endorse
ments by Foster g. Co. The cause Of the
failure is ctated 10 be the inability OF the
other banks which were holding the
paper OF Foster & CO., 10 rediscOunt it.
