THEY HAVE ARRIVED,

Some time back, in fact a few
days ago, we called attention to
the fact that Littlc Rock had run
the night marauders from that
city, and that likely they would
come here, Last night TEXAN.
KANlAN reporter was talking to
Constable Barkman, on the corner
of Broad and State streets, when
an excited individual rushed up and
said he had been held up near the
G, Block residence and robbed of
his knife and ~ 80 in money While
he was describing the parties
that held him up anober young
man came up and said he had been
held up by the same parties and
relieved Of 10 cents and His tobacco
aud knife, Mr. Grim cashier Of the
Texarkana National bank, report.
ed that he had been held up near
the Marx residence, on Pine street,
relieved of his gold watch and some
small change, Before Constable
Berkman could get out another
gentleman reported that he had
been interviewed at the point of a
pistol aud made TO give up a dla.
moud stud, worth $1,000 and 4 roll
of bills containing about 10000,
Mr. Barkman and his brother,
Frank, started out on the loo, for
these two frlsky hlghwaymen and
kept up the watch until l2 o'clock
but did not get on their track.
Since then Stanley Edwards has ar.
rested one man on suspicion and

FIRST NATIONAL BANK CLOSED,
1t had been whispered about men

1t had been whispered about men
ey circles since Monday that the
bank examiner, Mr. Johnson, was
making a close scrutiny of the banks
here, and that if they (the banks
did not make the showing the law
required, he Gohnson) would close
the doors of any such bank
The First National bank was
caught with only $4,000 cash in its
vaults to its credit, while the debit
side of the ledger showed about
$35. 900. The bank has out about
$40, 600 assets, in bankable paper,
however, which they expect to real
izo on, but Mr., Johnson said paper
was no good unless it was converted
into bank notes. He gave the bank
stated time to raise the full
amount of deposits, so as to pay
them off, and it failing in this,
the bank was closed down. A Tex
ARKAN1AN reporter saw Mr. Johnson
and was introduced to him, and
found him courteous to degree OF
trained Chesterfield, but when
the reporter asked him for an in
terview on the bank failure, his
Chesterheldian manners were fold
ed up and pocketed' He
said, in a laughing manner we
are not allowed to tell tales out OF
school" "
The reporter then looked
up Mr.. S. b. Andrews Mr. An
drews was found in the Office OF Mr.
j. Deutschman, and was more than
willing to answer all questions ask
ed him. He said, boiling the inter
view down, that the Comptroller OF
Currency made demand that the
stockholders Immediately guarantee
depositors or banks would be closed
We were unable to do so on a lew
hours notice, and the result is the
closing of its doors ! believe tins
bank has assets to pay all depositors
in full if the expense in closing its
affairs is not too large II the
Comptroller will permit me to wind
up its affairs ! will do all the work
and furnish rent free and without
one cent of compensation whatever
that depositors may get all due

this, said he had a clearance re-
lieving him from all blame, signed
by the directors of the bank, where
upon he handed us the following

would appear that no one would be

they did not receive a cent back,yet
those caught viii be hurt and the
result will be felt as great as If the
amounts were larger We learn
that not a single deposit would
reach higher than $1,000 and the

LEONARD GOT THERE.
He Travelled Night and Day. But Was Turned Down-Hot Fight Among Louisiana
 '..5.es- Republicans.

New Orleans, Sept. 1.-The republican state central committee met today at noon in the cd Fellows hall on a call is- sued by Chairman Cage. The meeting was most exciting one, and at times it looked as if it would fail to pieces and end in a fist fight.
 The object of the call was to endeavor to secure peace and harmony in the ranks of the state republican party The opposing leaders were Capt A. T. Vim berly, who was internal revenue collector under the Harrison administration who led the wing in favor ofeclOsing up ranks and bringing harmony about, while Al bert Leonard, who was one of the two as- pirants at the last gubernatorial election for the office of governor on the republi- can side, in person led the opposition to Wimber]y. z,.sl- 5a
 It was charged that snap judgement had been taken against Leonard in call ing the meeting when he was in Canada, but he hurried back, travelling night and day to get here, and only reached the city an hour before the meeting was called to order. Leonard'S aide was Ma jor Hero ex-United States Urea un- der Harrison's rule.
 For nearly seven hours the fight was on and occasionally the meeting resem-
  were made and fell to the ground, the delegates roared and cheered and hooted and it looked like bedlam was let loose.
 Cage made an excellent chairman, all things considered. At 6 o'clock a final vote was taken and by 34 to 21 the Leon ardites were routed. Wimberly led his forces with consummate skill. He had every point covered. his lieutenants be- ing Henry Demas a colored ex-state sen ator from St. Johns parish, and J. Mad ison Vance, prominent young colored lawyer of this city.
 The result of the vote Is in accord with the Badger wing of the party, substan- tial recognition on the state committee and the formation of a conference com mittee of seven. who shall confer with the sugar planters of the state, known to be favorable to uni1cation with the regulars. BeA good many say that in routing the Leonard forces today Henry Clay Yarmouth once more gets his grip on the republican party here. War mouth was conspicuous by his absence f.Ff

PRACTICALLY REOPENED.
Action of Secretary Carlisle in the Sugar Cases May Result in the Reversal of
 Bowler's Decision.

Washington, Sept. 11.-Secretary Car lsle has set September 20 Cor later date if counsel prefers) for the hearing of the argument on the motion made by eX Senator Manderson as counsel for the Oxnard beet sugar cases. Senator Man derson's contention is that the cases can not be sent to court claims without the consent of claimants and he asked the secretary to give him hearing on this point. Secretary Carlisle has acceded to his request and thus has practically re- opened the entire case.
 In the hearing before Comptroller Bowler, MT. Manderson also contended that section 1863 of the revised statutes, under which the comptroller assumed to act in referring the case to the court of claims, has been repealed. Comp troller Bowler referred to this point in his decision and said notwithstanding the doubt which had been suggested on this point in a case pending before the supreme court, he was strongly of the opinion that the section was still in force.
 Should Secretary Carlisle, however, differ with Comptroller Bowler on this question or should he sustain the conten- ton of the claimants that their consent is requisite under the law before the case can be referred to the court of claims his actions on those points, it is said, might be followed by another or der to return the OXnard sugar case to the commissioner of internal revenue with instructions to state the accounts and return then to the secretary of the treasury and then to the comptroller of the treasury for certification and pay ments if he would, of course, amount to a complete reversal of Comptroller Bowler's ruling. which the comptroller contends no one has power to do. While the pending motion is made by the ,coun- sel of the Oxnard Sugar company of Ne braska, it is understood that the Louis iana people. who took part in the dis cussion of the case before Comptroller Bowler, have been notified of the time set for the hearing before Secretary Car HSle and will also apDear

Montgomery, Sept. 11.-(Special.)- Many gold democrats here are disposed to believe that the free silver folks made a bad break in holding their silver con ference It appears that only 200 or 300 Of the silver ringleaders were invited or expected. These came on the formal, written invitation of Hon. s. w. John, who appeared to be the manipulator of the conference, and it is calculated here that every silver advocate who thinks he is beat leader will be angry at not hav- ing been remembered and invited Had the meeting been a faction caucus, the proceedings of which had been kept out of print it would have been different, but it Is argued for Colonel John to get together hundred or so politicians and have them organize themselves into the leaders of the free silver movement and undertake to set the pace for the cam paign in the state smacks to some eX- tent of ringleadership and combinations, which have been so roughly handled by the free silver press. Said an old poli- tician today: 'The free silver bulls-of- the-woods in the country precincts who have believed they stood close up to the free silver kings throne are going to fig ure that they have been sighted. l can see that they have lost much, however, for the conference accomplished practi- caily nothing, in my judgment, in the way of organization"
