CAPTAIN LEATHERs IS DEAD.
A Careless Cycler the Cause of His De-
 p,iao

Careless Cycler the Cause of His De-
 mise.
 New Orleans, June 13-After surviving for sixty years all the perils to which steamboatman is exposed, the world-re- nowned Capt. Thomas P, Lea thers is dead from the effects of being run over by a bicycle. One evening about four weeks ago he was crossing St. Charles avenue, when a scorcher came along at high speed and ran into and knocked him down. The rider was also thrown down, but quickly remounted his wheel and made good his escape without being rec- ognized.
 Captain Leathers never rallied from the shock
 He died at 2:50 this morning. The re- mains will be inferred here until fall, when they will be carried to Natchez and permanently buried.
 Captain Leathers was 81 years of age, his birthday occurring the day before the accident happened.

 Stakes.


 Gravesend Race Track, June 13.-Clear and cool weather brought over 5000 per- sons to the races today. The features of the day were the Great American stakes of S12,500 for 2-year-olds at five furlongs and the Boulevard stakes of $2500 for B. year-olds at a mile. In the first named event Don D' Orc was a prohibitive fa- vorite, but he finished in the ruck the honors being carried off by George Kess- Ter. To win the Boulevard stakes was mere pipe opening gallop for Margrave, who was @ prohibitive favorite. In the first race Ten of Hearts bolted and crashed into the fence. A rail nearly feet long penetrated her chest, killing her instantly. Sheedy, who rode her, landed in the long grass uninured. Sum- mary:
 First race, five urlongs-Ninah, 1os (Gifford), 12 to l. won; Pleurese second, Mistrial II third Time 1:O4.

Spain Is Watching the Conventions.

Madrid, June 13.-The Spanish press and public are closely and anxiously fol- lowing the drift of politics toward the nomination and election of a new presi- dent of the United States. The general belief is that McKinley's nomination will seriously affect the relations between Spain and the United States owing to his alleged sympathies with the Cuban inetlrQenfs

Won't Work on Sunday.

St. Louis, June 13.-While members of the national committee were assembling this morning preparatory to the fourth days siege in the matter of contesting delegations, there was an informal ex- change of opinions regarding the ad- visibility of holding one or more sessions on Sunday. It was admitted that the work of the body was badly in arrears, and that unless means could be found of expediting it the temporary roll would be still in abeyance when 1t became the duty of Chairman Carter to call the na- tional convention to order at noon Tues day. Notwithstanding the state of the calendar, however, it was apparent this morning that strenuous objections would be offered to any proposition looking to the transaction of business tomorrow, and some members of the committee went so far as to say they would cease to participate in the deliberat tions at the stroke of midnight tonight, no matter what might be the pending question.

At Mobile.

Mobile, June 13.-The same old story was repeated on the diamond at Monroe park this afternoon, and the locals lost another game to Columbus through their inability to hit Lamont, who held them down to five hits, all of which were made one to the inning, except in the third when the locals succeeded in getting two, and made run on McFadden's huff of thrown ball. Columbus won the game in the third inning, when they punched four hits, one a double, and made three runs, all of which were earned. They added another in the fourth on three hits and Casey's tumble of Lamont's safe grounder. There were no runs made af- ter that inning. With the exception of McFadden's error. which let in a run, Lamont was badly supported. Mobile had the opportunity to score in the fourth and fifth innings, but the hit that was needed never came. Days judgment on balls and strikes is very poor, and the grand stand soon got on to him and gave him a roast. Score:

Baltimore, June 13.-The Chicago club found both Pond and Corbett to their lik- ing, and, taking a commanding lead in the first inning, made a runaway race of it.

NOT SPECIALLY SIGNIFICANT
The Weekly Bank Statement Does Not Pre- sent Any Remarkable Features What
 the financier Says of It.

New York, June 13.-The New York Fi- nancier says this week:
 If the bank statement for the week end ing June 13 had been made to show the actual condition of the New York clear ing house banks up to the close of busi- ness Saturday, 1t is quite probable that the increase of $2,190,750 in the reserve would have been eliminated in part at least. The withdrawal of s2OO0,O0O in gold for export by Saturdays steamers was not included in the current state ment, and the gain in cash therefore is not fair estimate. The statement does show, in measure, the conditions pre- vailing during the week, and the large decrease in loans, amounting to $2, ,540, 800, reflects the furry in stock exchange bus mess of several days since It Is notice able that money rates displayed a tenn porary hardness during the last two days of the past week, and this fact bears out the assumption that banks were led to contract their loans for the reason men, toned. Otherwise the statement makes no showing of significance.
 Interior remittances continue in heavy volume, and the only offset, that of re- payment of loans by depository banks, will soon be at an end, since the banks are now engaged in turning over to the treasury the last $4, 800, GOO they had re- maining in vault The treasury will then cease to be factor in directly infiuenc- Ing New York money rapes by manipula- ton, although the effect of this influence for a. month or so past has not been more than noticeable. The probable contin- uance of gold exports is more important feature to be considered. The decrease of $2l4, 400 in national bank circula ton for the week appears to have been caused for the most part by a withdrawal of $232, 600 on the part of the Hanover national
 It is noteworthy of remark that for the corresponding wesk one year ago :he loans of the New York banks aggregated S507 ,927, 300, or $33, 3,000,000 in excess of the present volume, and yet rates today are higher than at that period The reserve is about 17,000,000 lower. The averages in the statement for the week ending June IS, 1896, as compared with the cor responding weeks in 1895 and 1894, are as follows:

Philadelphia, June 13.-The victory of the Louisville club here today was well deserved and was due largely to the pitching of Frazer, which was simply wonderful. Only five hits were made off of him, Grady getting three of them. The batting of McCreary was a feature. The Phillies played an errorless game and choked off many seemingly safe hits 1000. Score:

At New Orleans.

New Orleans June 13.-The league leaders won their fifth successive victory from the Montgomery team today which makes seven straights they have won. The visitors were clearly outclassed, and Drinkwater, who started the game, only lasted two innings, during which time four two-baggers were made off him. Kellum, who replaced him, was also hit hard. The fielding was fair on both sides, Illusions error being the only one that proved costly. Knox Huston and Dowie batted like fiends, the first named getting three, and the other two doubles each. Carl was very effective, but his wild pitch allowed Kelum to score the only run Montgomery made. Powell gave splendid exhibition of scientific play by being in position to capture ev- erything hit to his territory. Score:

city of Charleston, where Colonel Melton had said 2500 white men will be ready to join the lilly white" party, the facts were, said Small, that perhaps that num- Der of men or more were willing to join not particularly the republican party, but any party that would help them to down" Tillman and his dispensary law and give them free rule in their city and their homes.
 National committeeman B. M. Brayton, also one of the contestants, spoke in his dual capacity. He was repeatedly inter rupted by Senator Thurston, who at one point asked whether the lilly whites" had not adopted the "club" or black and white system.
 Colonel Brayton replied in the affirma- tive and Senator Thurston rejoined that neither the republican party nor the re- publican convention would ever tolerate system of organization that did not permit every man to take part in all preliminary proceedings"
 What about the league of republican clubs of which you have been presldent?" retorted Colonel Brayton.
 That's another matter" replied the senator, and laugh went around the room.
 The rival delegations having with drawn, MT. Long of Florida promptly moved the seating of the Webster-Small delegation.
 Colonel Settle, proxy for Cowles of North Carolina, proposed as a substitute the seating of the Brayton- Melton quar- tette. The roll was called amid consid- erable excitement.
 It resulted in the rejection of the sub stitute to 21. This was first blood for the anti-"lily whites" but when the mo- ton to seat the Webster-Small delegates was about to be put, MT. Fessenden of Connecticut moved that the Delaware precedent be followed and both sides be excluded from the temporary roll. Dele gate Catron of New Mexico moved that each delegation be seated with a half vote each. The proposition to seat both delegations was defeated 16 to 32. The question recurred on MT. Fesssndens motion to exclude both delegations and refer the issue to the national conven- ton.
 Another roll call was demanded. Again the lilly whites" encountered defeat-14 to 34 Then the minority gave up the fight and the Webster-Small delegation was seated on 0 viva voce vote, with about ten nays.
 This vote takes out of the convention total of sixteen delegates, who are noted in MT. Hannas handbook of dele gates of contestants as having Reed preferences"
 At 1 40 D. m. a recess of twenty min uteS for lunch was ordered.

the defendants for the purpose mentioned
and converted TO his own use money and
chattels that passed into his hands as
agent, and the jury might have drawn the
inference and found that it was done
with a felonious and fraudulent intent
We have forborne to discuss the case
in the light Of the decision in Oakley vs.
Tate. 118 N. c., 366, wherein Chief JUS
tice Faircloth for the court announced
the general principle that a complainant
could not be "held responsible for an
error committed by a Justice" It is not
necessary to determine how far, if at
ALL that principle applies to the case be-
fore us. Conceding that when the fact
that the plaintiff was discharged by the
justice for want of sufficient proof, was
shown, the burden was east upon the de-
PENDANTS to rebut q pridna-facie case, 1t
is manifest that it YVES competent for
them to relieve themselves of that bur
den by showing that there was probable
cause as to an offence charged in the
warrant.
1t was therefore for The jury to deter
mine under proper instructions, whether
there was probable cause for believing
that any criminal offenae-coming within
the terms of the complaint or charge, had
been committed by tie plaintiff. The
court misled the jury in restricting their
inquiry to the question: whether probable
cause had been Shown as to the charge
of cheating by false pretenses, and erred
when, in fact, that inquiry was answered
for them in the charge. In refusing to
instruct the jury as requested, and sub
stituting the charge given, there was
error which entities the defendants to
new trial.
Clark, j., did not sit on the hearing Of
this case.
