A feature of the deputy oil inspec-
torship is that the districts are all
being rearranged, and at one time
Mr.. Schiffman had Blue Earth, Nj
collet and Brown counties in one
district, with Mankato man select
ed for the deputy. This created
trouble in political circles, and Mr..
Schiffman was obliged to rescind
the order to the extent of leaving
Brown county out of the list, and
Mr.. Somerville's friend, Paul JAG

TEMPORARY RECEIVER NAMED.
Great Falls Manufacturing Company in Finan
cial Trouble.
Especial to News and Observer.

Especial to News and ObServer)
Rockingham, ~ c., August 15.-Upon
application to Judge Neal, at Chambers
in Hamlet, by tn executors of the II. Z.
Wall estate, Capt w. N. Everett was ap-
pointed temporary receiver for the Great
Falls Manufacturing Company, at Rock
ingham and ordered notice issued to de-
PENDANT company to appear before him at
Monroe August 22nd to show cause, IL
any, why the appointment of temporary
receiver should not be made pedmanent.
The receiver is requested to give bond
in the sum of $4,000.
The receivership was asked by the Wall
heirs, who are creditors of and stock
holders in the company, upon the ground
that the business of the company has
been suspended for want of funds to con-
tinue the same, that their employees have
been discharged, its machinery lying
idle and that it is largely indebted and
in imminent danger of insolvency.
An explanation of the condition of the
companys affairs is found in the fact,
it is stated that in years gone by it paid
large dividends instead laying by sur
plus to replensh it's machinery, ETC., and
to the further fact that it was manufac-
turing class of heavy white goods used
almost exclusively for the Chinese trade,
and hence they were shut out of a mar
ket by the disturbance of the past two
years in that country.
The presidnet of the company has called
the stock holders to meet in Rockingham
next Wednesday, 21st, and it is believed
that the mill will resume operations in
the near future on more profitable ba
sis.

FIERCE BATTLE WITH a WHALE.
Bosttn Ship Loses an Officer and Two
Boats and Has a Sailor Badly Hurt
in the Combat.

Provincetown, Mass, May 6.-Writing
from Talcahuan0, Chile, Richard f. Smith,
first mate of the Boston whaler Josephine,
tells of a hard fight with whale in which
the fourth mate was killed, sailor badly
hurt and two whalebOats destroyed, the
whale escaping.
The whale was attacked by the first
mates boat. AS quickly as he felt the
blow of the iIun he made rush for the
boat, and caught the blubber hunters
mapping. They had just time to swerve
their boat away. A second rush was more
successful and he smashed the boat. Smith
was thrown into the sea, but was quickly
rescued. The whale made his third rush
and again hit the boat hard. The fourth
mate and crew came on the scene at this
time and the whale charged them.
There was one brisk round, ending in
victory for the whale. The huge head
crashed upon the boat in an unguarded
moment and scattered its enemies in a
shower of oars, chips and men. All were
saved but the fourth mate, who had been
killed. One of the crew received serious
injuries.
