in 1851 removed to Davenport, Ia, where
he remained until 1865.
Though successful as a lawyer Mr.. Cor
bin did not practice long. He became q
partner in 1854 in the banking firm OF
Macklot & Corbin, which was the only
concern of the kind in Davenport which
did not suspend payment IN the financial
panic of 1857. Corbin organized the First
National Bank, which began business un-
der the National Currency ACT of 1868.
The bank was successful and he was en-
abled to come to New York with consid-
erable fortune.
Here he founded the Corbin Banking
Company and acquired interests until he
became one of the leading finan ciers OF
the country. Mr.. Corbin had beautifu'
home on Long Island and another in New
Hampshire, besides his town houses. His
New Hampshire property consisted OF
25, 600 acres around Newport, all mountain

If no other way is presented he will de-

in this he will retire to private life or else

Senator Lodge and Mr.. Aldrich of Illinois
Co announce in unmistakable terms that
he will not accept a nomination for the
Vice Presidency IN case of failure to secure
the other place.
Before the convention meets he places
this statement in writing in such a way
that there can be no misunderstanding.
If the convention should nom inate him it
would act with its eyes open, and Reed
would feel no compunction about refusing
to accept the place. He believes he can
render his party better service in the
House OF Representatives than in the
Vice Presidential chair.
If Reed were preparing to retire from
public life his friends hold there might
be some reason for his accepting such a
purely honorary place as that of Vice
President; but they think if he remains
in public life he will continue to be the
real leader OF his party, whether NOM
mated for President or not, and that in
his capacity the House is better suited to
him than any other place.

NEWPORT, N. H., June 4.-Austin
Corbin, the New York capitalist and rail-
road magnate, aad ~ nephew, Corbin
Edgell, with DR.. Paul Kunzier and Coach
man John Stokes, started on fishing trip
about o'clock to-day. On going out OF
the yard at the farmhouse the horses SHE'D,
tipping over the open carriage, throwing
the occupants down an EN- bankment about
eight feet against stone wall The family
saw the accident and hurried to his assist
ance with the farm help. They found Mr..
Corbin conscious but terribly wounded.
His nephew and the doctor were also con-
scious.
The coachman was unconscious and ap-
parentlv hurt the worst OF all. They were
carried to the house and doctors sum-
moned. Mr.. Corbin's injuries were very
serious, compound fracture of the right
leg above the knee, fearful scalp wound
over four inches long on the forehead, one
on the right side of the head three inches
long, and the hip and shin cut badly.
DR.. Kunzier was thrown over the wall
and sustained broken arm and sprained
ankle, so far as known, and Corbin Edgell
had his leg twice broken between the
knee and ankle. John Stokes leg was
broken between the knee and ankle, and
he sustained a fractured skull. Stokes
died from his injuries about 6 O'Clock,
without regaining consciousness.
The cause of the horses shying is said to
be that the coachman was driving them
for the first time without binders.
Mr.. Corbin died at 942 this evening,
shortly after the arrival of DR.. Cylley from
Boston. His son. Austin Corbin Jr., ar
rived on special train from Boston about
