TRUST COMPANY IN TROUBLE.
Former Presidents CrOolxedness
Forces 1t to ASSIGN


Forces 1t to Assign.
Louisville, KY, Jan. 15.-As was pre-
dicted in these dispatches last night
lNesident H. ID. Ormsby of the board of
trustees of the Kentucky Trust Company.
reported that the affairs of the company
were in bad shape and recommended that
an assignment be made at once.
The meeting was not without sensa-
tons, among others being letter from
Reineke, the missing president of the in
solvent concern. The letter was written
by Reineke himself and mailed in this
city last Tuesday afternoon by some
friend to whom the letter was entrusted.
The epistle abounds in sanctimonious
clap-trap and evidently was written for
puohcatlon. Reineke states that he is
about to leave for some strange land
where his disgrace is not known and
Where he can earn a humble livelihood bv
tne sweat OF his brow He states that
ms conscience demands that he stay to
race the storm, but the necessities of his
family compel him to go away to work.
Ihe writer admits that he had betrayed
the trust placed in him and gives the de-
tails of one deal in which he lost S75 ON
of the company's money
In conclusion, he says that his misfor-
tunes were brought about by unfortunate
investments in Alabama coal lands, and
that he did not profit by a cent he took
from the company.
President Ormsby read his own report
OF the condition of the company at the
same time recommending that an assign
ment be made. 1t was decided by the
board of trustees that the facts of Mr..
Ormsby report be kept secret. 1t is
known, however, that the affairs of the
company were shown to be in very bad
shape, with liabilities exceeding the ss-
sets, which are mostly at par.
The board decided to make an assign
ment, and the Columbia Finance and
Trust Company was selected as the as
signee of the concern. The deed of assign
ment was filed in the county clerks Of
flee this afternoon.
The assignment is a general one for the
benefit of all the creditors.

Himself "a Candidate.

Himself a Candidate.
Nashville, Tenn, Jan. 15.-This after
noon Gov. Taylor formally announced
that he would be a candidate for cleo
ton to the United States Senate by the
Legislature, which meets in extra session
next Monday.
Taylor headquarters have been opened
and the friends of the Governor, who APP
prove of this step, are hard at work to-
night among incoming members of the
Legislature.
This announcement by the Governor
caused decided sensation, for he has re-
peatedly and publicly stated he was for
and would work for the election of Sena-
tor Turley, his appointee.
There will be three candidates before the
Democratic caucns, @5enator Turley,
Congressman NIcMillen and Gov. Taylor,
and tonight the workers for each candi-
date are claiming the nomination.
Some of Senator Turley's workers are
very indignant over what they term the
"throw-down" Gov. Taylor has given
them, as they claim, until now that he
insisted that he was in favor of Senator
Turkeys reelection and said that he
would not "go back on them.
