AN OLD BANK SUSPENDS
TRADEsMEN's NATIONAL, OF NEW
YORK CITY, CLOSES ITS DOORS.
clearinghouse Committee Advises
Early Liquida ation-Involved in the
Wool Exchange Failure.

NEW YORK, Oct 4LThe Tradesmen s
National Bank, of No. 26O West Broadway
did not clear through the clearing house, OF
which it is>a member. to-day This fact led
to investigation and it developed that the
bank is in serious trouble. The clearing
house committee visited the bank yesterday
and after a careful examination of it's Sc
curities found its capital impaired and ad-
vised an early liquidation.
The bank was organized in the early part
of this century, and while never a leader
among the banks of this city, was always
regarded as very sound and conservative in
its business dealings. 1t occupies quarters
in the Wool Exchange building. The Wool
Exchange suspended business temporarily
only few days ago. At that time it was
declared the bank was in no degree con-
cerned in the suspension of the exchange,
although it was not denied that it had many
wool accounts. The capital of the bank is
$75O,0O0
In the banking district the opinion is ex-
pressed that the troubles Of the Wool Ex-
change are indirectly responsible for the
Tradesmens Nationals troubles. Vice
President Homer Bates promised the clam
oring depositors to-day that the bank
would pay it's patrons a hundred cents on
the dollar. He said further, that the bank
would resume as soon as all its claims were
liquidated. The controversy which for some
time had existed between the New York
and Boston wool merchants, who, it was
said, drew on the bank recently to the ex-
tent of $500,000 was said to be the cause for
the suspension of business by the bank this
morning.

RECEIPTS FALLING OFF
RETURNING TRAVELLERS PAYING
LITTLE ON Personal EFFECTS.
Less than $4,000 Collected at New
York Last Month Against S03,7O0
in September a Year Ago.
special to the IndIanapolIs journal.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, Oct. 4.--Off1cials of the
New York custom house sent to the treas
ury to-day a report concerning the receipts
from the personal STfects'' clause of the
Dingley tariff law. Last year the returns
for September were a3,709.74. and in the
month just closed they amounted to only
$39, ,55911. OF course the greatest reason for
this falling off is the effect of the Spanish
war upon European tourist travel, but as
the figures of the passenger movement for
September are not here obtainable, it is
impossible to tell whether there has been
any decline in per capita payment on this
account, which is obviously the important
factor. There is supposition that returning
travellers are so much more familiar with
the law this year than last, that their pur-
chases abroad are now influenced more by
this consideration, and that a per capita
falling off would have occurred had there
been no Spanish war. The small amount
realized from this tax is significant Seven
ty-ive per cent. of it roughly comes from
the port of New York, and September
should be a big month. The $4,000 for the
month just closed betokens a general re-
suit Infinitely small by comparison with the
-million-dollar estimates of its yield orig
inally made There is nevertheless no dis
position to repeal the law. 1t is evidently
having it's expected protective effect, and,
despite the annoyance and delay of bag
gage inspection, is regarded as a satisfac-
tory revenue measure. The returns at the
treasury show that New York is steadily
increasing its percentage of our total ex-
port and import trade. For some years there
was a falling off, but an opposite movement
has now set in. In the fiscal year which
closed June 80 last 65 per cent of the i'm
ports, free and dutiable, came in at New
York

ISLAND SWEPT BY A STORM.
Unknown Number of Truck Growers
Supposed to Be Lost.

SAVANNAH, Ga, Oct. 4-Complete de-
tails from Brunswick and surrounding coun-
try are impossible because of the prostra-
tion of the telegraph and telephone systems.
Campbell island, twelve miles from Darien.
on the Altahamra river, is said to be COM
pletely swept away and only three persons
succeeded in getting off the island. There
is no definite information as to the popula-
ton Of the island and estimates of the num-
ber supposed to have pershed there range
from twenty to fifty. The population was
made up wholly of colored truck growers.
Four deaths are now reported from Bruins
wick. The damage to property there is esti-
mated at half million dollars. News from
outlying islands is not obtainable. The Nor
wegian bark Louise, schooner Blanche Hop
kins, schooner Aaron Shepard. schooner L.
Martin, and pilot boats E. D. Jordan and
Oracle are ashore. Pilot boat Pride sank
at her dock. Steamer Egmont went across
the marsh to Crispen island and her bow is
sticking up in a tree. There are no docks
left at Darien.

In addition to seeing the festivities he wants
to spend few days at the exposition. Mr..

dumfounded him. He said he could not
figure out in any manner how he could be

Georgians to Vote To-Day.

ATLANTA, Ca, Oct. A full state
ticket will be elected in Georgia tomorrow.
The officers from Governor down were
chosen by the Democrats at the primaries
two months ago, and, as there is no oppo-
sition of consequence, to-morrow's election
is but necessary compliance with the
law. The Democratic ticket, headed by
Hon. Allen d. Gambler is opposed only by
the Populists, whose leading man is James
X. Hogan, nominated in place of Thomas
e. Watson, who declined to run. The Gov
ernor to-day received a telegram from
Sheriff Black asking for company of mil
itia to preserve order in Early county.
where the contest will be bitter. The Gov
ernor is out of the city, but the state off,
cials think the sneriff is unduly exercised.

BALLoTING FOR SENATOR.
Thirty-Six Votes Cast for Corbett by
Oregon Legislators.

SALEM, Ore, Oct. 4.-Both houses to-day
voted for United States senator in separate
session. The vote was as follows:
House-H. w. Corbett (Rep.), %; M. c.
George, 10; George H. Williams, A; E. S.
Eaken, 8; A. s. Bennett Dem), Is.
Senate-Corbett, 1S; George, s; Williams
/; Eaken, 1; Cotton, L; Bennett, g.
AS forty-six votes are necessary to choice
there was no election.
The Legislature will ballot at noon to-
morrow in joint session. 1t is unlikely that
a nomination will result from the ballot to-
morrow, as the opposition to Corbett has
not agreed upon candidate, and the prob
ability tonight is that the thirty-six Cor
bett men will support their candidate for
several days yet. Out of ninety members
In the Legislature sixty-eight are Repub-
licans. The Republicans were elected on
strong gold platform, and it is entirely i'm
probable that any one not known to be a
believer in the gold standard will be chosen
for the senatorShlp.

Reported to Have Been Refused Rec
ognftiOn by the President.
WASHINGTON, Oct. A report was
current tonight that the Philippine agent
Agoncillo, who recently arrived in this coun-
try. representing the i1.surgent government,
had been refused recognition by the Presi-
dent. 1t was impossible. however, to OBJ
tain from any authoritative source informa-
ton on the subject. Agoncillo and his in
terpreter, Lopez, visited the State Depart
ment to-day, where they had an interview
with Assistant Secretary Adee. Previous to
his visit to the department Agoncillo, it is
learned, had received from his government
at Malolos the instructions which he has
been awaiting here for some time, and which
came only after three separate requests for
them had been cabled to the insurgent gov
ernment. Mr.. Lopez tonight in speaking in
behalf of his Chief refused to make any
statement bearing on the report that the
insurgents are not to have any recognition
before the Paris commission, but would only
go SO far as to admit that the instructions
awaited by Agoncillo had been received.
The agents arrangements, while yet incom-
plete, contemplate his departure for New
York during the present week. Thence he
will go to Paris, but just when he refuses
to say.

WASHINGTON, Oct. A bulletin posted
in front of Adjutant General Corbin's office
to-day says that the total number of deaths
in the army from all causes to date is 2910.
OF this number 1866 died from disease Gen.
Corbin is unable to separate the volunteers
from the regulars, and not even an approx
innate estimate can be made Of the ratio be-
tween the two branches of the service I'm
fortunately, volunteer surgeons seemed to
regard the demand of the surgeon general
for monthly reports of the sick as "red
tape" Consequently, there are regiments
with absolutely no hospital records on file
This is particularly true of the First Dis
trict of Columbia, the Seventy-first New
York and a number of Western regiments.
The surgeon general has less than half the
number of deaths recorded in his office re-
ported by the adjutant general. This neg
lect on the part of the doctors will result in
long delays in the adjustment of claims for
pensions. and the cry of ''red tape will fur
nish further texts for sensational attacks on
the administration. The total of 1855 deaths
from disease in five months among an army
of 2720OO men is but very little higher than
prevails in the cities of the United States
1t is at the annual rate of about twenty in a
eHouSaiu' "Hlle the rate lOr all the cllleS Oh
the country ranges from eighteen to thirty
in the thousand 1t is probably true that
some lives were lost through inef11ciency
but it is the firm belief of the authorities of
the War Department that when all the
records are in they will clearly demonstrate
that great many lives could have been
saved if the volunteer regimental officers
had fully realized the absolute necessity for
obeying instructions of the medical depart
ment to the letter.

BAY STATE DEMOCRATS.
They Nominate Ticket and IndOrse
the Chicago Platform.

WORCESTER, Mass, Oct. 4.-The ticket
named by the Democratic state convention
here to-day follows: For Governor, Alex
ander b. Bruce, of Worcester; lieutenant
governor, Edward j. Slattery. of Framing
ham; secretary of commonwealth, Harry
L. Lloyd, of Boston; treasurer and receiver,
Gen. Pierre Bonvouier, of Holyoke; au-
ditor, Charles F. Parker, of Boston; attor-
ney general, Patrick f. Kilroy, Of Spring
field.
Warning elements were entirely lacking
in the convention, and the proceedings were.
as q rule, of the most harmonious nature.
This was principally due to the fact that
those who still oppose the leaders now in
authority had decided to wait another year
before again attempting TO obtain control
of the party machinery. The platform, in
part, follows:
1.-THE Democracy of Massachusetts in
dorses and reaffirms with emphasis and pro-
found conviction the great and patriotic
platform of principles adopted by the party
in national convention at Chicago in 1896"
Then comes denunciation Of the Repub-
lican partys record on bimetallism, and a
statement that the business of the country
is in more deplorable condition than in
1896. 1t is followed by a demand for free
coinage. The platform had this to say of
the conduct of the war:
1.-The military administration during the
recent war has been a stigma on the his
tory of the Republic and disgrace to civ
ilization. The army which sprang into exist
ence has been made the prey of incom-
petents and favorites who have fattened on
the sorrows of American soldiers. The brave
young men who fought our battles in the
West Indies and were left without adequate
food, medicines or surgical assistance.
They were put under incompetent
commanders and were left to suffer and die
with undressed wounds and burning fevers.
And hundreds of their comrades who have
returned alive nave come back emaciated
and ghostly to stagger through the streets
as living witnesses against those who were
responsible for their sufferings. We demand
that a thorough investigation by Congress,
not by administrative committee organized
to acquit, shall expose the guilty and drive
them mercilessly from the Office which they
have disgraced."
The platform concluded by strongly in
dorsing Bryan and George Fred Williams.

Fifteen Members Granted Discharges
loo Anxious to Quit Service.

AOO 10 quit SerV1Ces
WASHINGTON, Oct. 4.-The request of
Colonel Bryan, of the Third Nebraska In
fantry, for the discharge of a number of
men of that regiment, who desire to return
to their homes, was granted by the. secre-
tary of war to-day in about fifteen cases
which had received the approval of COM
pany and regimental officers and of the
brigade and corps commanders. They were
based on various reasons, including i'll
health and private business necessities. 1t
is understood that there are nearly one
hundred men in the regiment who are doing
their utmost to secure their discharge 1t
is said that Colonel Bryan has indorsed
the applications in many cases. but that
they lack the approval of the brigade and
corps commanders. In case of favorable
action by the reviewing authorities, the ap-
plications will be granted by the War De-
partment without further consideration
Applications lacking the favorable indorse-
ment of the reviewing officers will each be
Independently investigated and decided on
it's merits.
1t is said at the War Department that
nothing has yet been heard from the Gov
ernor of Nebraska regarding the selection
of the Nebraska regiment to be mustered
out in order to bring the number of troops
furnished by that State within the regula-
ton quota. AS understood here, the Gov
ernor desires before reaching a decision in
that matter to hear from the officers and
men of the two regiments concerned
namely, the First Regiment, now in the
Philippines, and the Third Regiment (Col.
Bryans). now at Jacksonville, Fla 1t is
further stated at the department that in
case Colonel Rryan desires an extension of
leave he would apply therefor to his
brigade commander, and not to the War
Department, tha. is, unless he should de-
sire leave for more than thirty days
Brigade commanders are authorized to
grant leaves of absence to officers of their
commands for period not exceeding thirty
days. All applications for leave for more
than thirty days must be acted on by the
secretary of war. 1t is not anticipated that
Colonel Bryan will have any difficulty in
securing an extension of leave, especially
in view of the fact that he has not yet fully
cate of disability in his case is all that is
necessary to secure him an extension or
leave.
When Colonel Bryan left Jacksonville he
had leave of absence for seven days. That
leave has about expired. He has made no
application to the War Department to have
his leave extended. No orders, however.
have been issued to him to return at once
to his regiment.
