Talbot and Palmer Will Probably Rec
main in Business.
A Macon (Ga.) paper prints the follow
ing:
There is now stronger probability than
ever that Talbot & Palmer will be able
to resume business.
A telegram from Mr.. Palmer from
Cnica go yesterday announced that he
had perfected satisfactory arrange
ments.
1t had already been practically agreed
among the Macon creditors of the con-
Germ that they would consent to almost
anything that the firm asked. The Macon
parties interested have all along express
ed a desire to help the firm get back on
its feet, if it became necessary to lend
them money. They seem TO have every con-
tidence in the integrity of the gentlemen at
the head of the business, and SO far as
known no creditor here doubts that the
failure was a perfectly honest one. due
ALTOGETHER to too much generosity to-
ward Gus toners.
But Atlanta creditors have not SHOWN
a similar disposition. Several EFFORTS
| have been made at that end Of the line
to get the case into the criminal court.
Warrants were sworn out up mere 1
charging that the last days transactions
amounted to larceny. These warrants
were issued in spite of the fact that law
yers insist that the cases would have no
standing in court IL
hief-of-Police tBoifeuillet received an
order from the Atlanta chef-of-police for
the arrest of Mr.. Talbot on one of these
warrants, and although he regarded II as
an effort to humliate Mr.. Talbot, he
was Eccm PEELED to notify Mr.. Talbot that
he would have to consider himself in his
custody, but as there was no probability
that AIR. Talbot would try5to leave Ma
con. the chief allowed him to go ION his
own recogrizance.
But yesterday two officers from Allan
ia i came down. each with a warrant:
One of these. came from Justice. Orr's
Court and the other from Justice Bate
mans. An attorney also came with JUS
tlce Bateman,s officer. and demanded
Mr.. Talbott'st arrest in spite Of Chief
I,oiteuillet's authority. The chief noti-
fled the officer that the Macon police
would take him in charge If he put his
hands on Mr.. Talbot. The officer seemed
| determined, but when he found that the
| chief was equally s., he decided to let
the matter drop The officers then re-
turned to Atlanta. Mr. Talbot and his

COTTON MILL SITE Donated.
Mr.. w. NJ. Cumming Offers Two City
Blocks to Individual or Corporation
who will Establish a New Mill.

Interest in the movement for more
cotton mills in Wilmington is steadi-
ly increasing and the one thing need
ful is for one or more cotton mill men
of established reputation, either Will
m~ingtonians or from a distance, to take
the initiative or rather express a will
ingneSS to direct such enterprises and
the raising of any amount of stock for
almost any number of mills would be
only a matter of a few days, the bust
ness men of the city being really Gag
er for opportunities to invest capital
in cotton milling enterprises, now that
such remarkable success is being Scor-
ed by the Wilmington cotton mill and
the new Delgado mill. both of which
are to be materially enlarged within
the lear future.
1t is of interest to note in this con
nection that Mr.. w. M. Cumming, Of
this city, authorizes The Messenger to
say that he will donate two city blocks
as a site to any individual or corpora
ton who will erect a cotton mill there
on. Mr.. Cumming says, too, that the
site which he offers is we'll located and
elevated, affording good natural drain

tween Eleventh and Twelfth streets.
