Mr.. Dawes saws that he has every will
lingncss to help the movement for vollln-
tary liquidation; he does not want to ap-
point Receiver unless absolutely COM
pclled to- The plan Of voluntary liqui-
dation is satisfactory to him. II was ap-
proved by his predecessor, Mr. Eckles and
for that reason Mr.. Dawes does not
wish to make any change. He points
out the fact that every director of the
Bank and Trust Company is equally
liable with Mr. William NJ. singerly
for the amount Of the shortage. Each
director must make good his share
whether the plan prevails or not.
II the plan for voluntary liquda-
ton goes through those who assent
will get the full amount of their cl; i rs
with interest. Those who do not assent
will get the face amount Of their claim
in cash at once.
The State Of Pennsylvania is the only
important dcpostor still missing from
the roll Of asscnters The State will as
sent within day or SO to a moral GER
tainty and the plan will at once become

Members of Court Martial Leave To-

The Carter court martial finished its
work yesterday, and to-day the members
of the court will leave. for their respective
stations The work of the court was con-
cluded at 2;45 O'Clock in the afternoon, the
findings of the court upon all the speci-
fications and charges being placed in the
hands of Judge Advocate Colonel Thomas
F. Barr at that hour.
Col. Barr will leave the city to-day for
Washington to carry the record and the
courts verdict. What the verdict is was
not even betrayed by the slightest trace
In the countenance of the Judge Advocate
or of any member of the court after they
had finished their work. 1t will undoubt
eddy be several weeks before it is made
public, as there is still considerable work
to be done in connection with 1t. Capt.
Carter is still in Savannah not yet hav-
ing secured permission to leave the city.
He may, however, go to Washington be-
fore the conclusion Of the case is reach
ed.
All of the members of the court who
go east will leave the city to-day at noon
in a special sleeping car by the Florida
Central and Peninsular Railroad. There
are several who go West, and they will
go via the Central. After their arrival
at their respective stations, they will be
notified there If other duties have been Sc
lected for them. There have been many
changes in the locations of the troops since
the court met, and this may necessitate
some changes in the stations of members
of the court martial. The members of the
court have undoubtedly enjoyed their stay
in Savannah, but it has been an extremely
lcng one, and under the circumstances,
they are naturally anxious to get back TO
their posts.
