SULLY COMPROMISE OFF.
The Split Comes OUer the Erpenses
of administration.

After stormy meeting that lasted two hours
yesterday. the creditors Of D. J. SuHy 70
decided that the estate must be admlns'eloU ~
the trustee and that they would withdraw tneH
assents TO the composition agreement lheh
they adjourned until to-day. when formal acloi
will be taken to that end.
The failure to agree was brought about oy MT
suIly himself After his counsel. John R. Dos
Passos had explained that all the individual
creditors had withdrawn their claims, ana that
a majority OF the firm creditors had signed CON
sents the 80 per cent agreement MI. Su11S
raised the point Of the expenses Of adninistra-
tion.
Lawyers for some Of the creditors asked tne
bankrupt if he prepared to make sooo ms
offer of 20 per cent cash MT suns -
by a statement of figures which showed that the
estate would more than furnish that amount
after allowing $4,000 for the cost OF admlnls'erhs'
He explained that he unable to pay more
and that he able to pay so nuch oiy pe'ause ,
Of the attitude of friendly creditors. Inc
figures of David II. Miller, the trustee, agreed
with those of Mr.. SuIy. They showed claims
of S3511oOO including claims of $4,000 filed yester-
day. with available assets of $LS4NV"' lnciuolhe
$4,000 the assessed valuation Of the seats on
the Stock and Cotton exchanges owned by the
firm The individual creditors whose claims were
10 be taken from the list. would reduce 1t by
$500 OOO and leave $l.2s4000 as the sum called ior
by the 40 per cent offer.
Recapitulating the figures ar. Suy said when
he the offer he had estimated the cost OF ad-
ministration at $4,000 and that amount he stood
ready to pay. 1t was impossible 1or mm' ne sa4u'
to do more.
There was a long discussion criticising Mr. Sui
ly's attitude and even the referee. Mr.. Coke. de-
clared it an unfair position for Mr.. Suly to take
in advance OF any amount having been fixed by
the referee. Mr. Coke said $4,000 was much less
than the cost of administering an estate of the
magnitude of the Sully firm.
The question is simply this" interrupted coun-
sci some of the creditors, is Mr. Sully ready
10 put up certified check for the difference neceso
sary to make his offer of 40 per cent. good? II
he is ready to put up from 100000 to Sl5OCOO
are only wasting time
I'm do it the moment you show me that 1t is
necessary to make my offer good" shouted MI
Sully.
1t was evident that the creditors represented
were not ready to take up any part of the burden
OF the administrative fees but Mr.. Dos Passos
appealed their sympathy. He did not succeed
Mir Sully did not countenance it. When Mr.. Dos
Passos said: Look at this man. He is bankrupt
broken I'm purse, broken in spirit Mr.. Sully
interrupted with vigorous. Not on your life.
Neither side would recede.

Chamberlain called Things and the Man

one more Of those inflated poems" in which
Mr. aipiing has sacrificed his sense Of what Is

pulse. II Is conceivable that poet might find
an inspiring motive in NGr. Chamberlain and his

{. CANDIDATES FAIL TO
PAY ASSESSMENTS

We are informed that
"Mudge" Smith, of Plum Run,
Meade district, a candidate for
Sheriff, will not be on the ticket
at the primary to be held the
25th. It is reported he sent his
assessment to the First National
bank, at Middlebourne, TO be paid
to the Republican Executive COM
mittee, but the officials Of that
bank neglected the matter until
the time expired for the assess
ment to be paid, and so Mr..
Smith name will not be on the
ticket.
|, We are also informed that Mr.. !.
Engle, of Middlebourne, and Mr..
Hanes, of this city, candidates for
Prosecuting Attorney, also failed
or declined to pay the assessment
and that their names will not be
printed on the ticket at the pri-
mary.
SO this leaves two candidates
for Prosecuting Attorney-Un-
derwood and Carter. As to these
two men there should be no trOu-
BILE in deciding who to vote for.
Underwood has heen tried for the
past four years, and a more dis
NAL failure never was elected to
that office than he has been.
Hardly a contested case has been
won by him, and every case lost
means costs to the taxpayers. He
has not prosecuted illegal whiskey
selling. which has been carried on

DAWSON WILL
BE NOMINATED

Hon. William M. O. Dawson
has virtually been nominated as
the Republican candidate for Gov
ernor of West Virginia. To date
he lacks but 55 votes of the nomi-
nation, and in the convention he
will have SIS votes in his favor
out of 1913. This is a conserva-
tive estimate. Hence the contest
lis all over with the exception Of
the shouting feature.
To this time Mr.. Dawson has
|3441a votes. Mr.. Teter has 17712.
Counties that are yet to elect del
Iegates will give Dawson 1882
votes for certain, and he will
pick up % more in round figures.
Mr.. Teter may continue his fight
to the convention, but his cause
became a forlorn hope some weeks
ago, Kanawha county Saturday
sinking in the final coffin nail. =
Here is a list of the vote so far,
including Clay and Calhoun coun-
ties, which expressed unanimous
preferences for Dawson and
which will do so again, and count

so openly in this county. The
gamblers have gone scott free. IL
legal houses of prostitution run
wide open without apparently any
fear of prosecution from the coun-
ty authorities.
In the Pine case, instead of hav-
ing a Prosecuting Attorney to at
tend to the matter, the city had to
employ counsel at an expense to it
of nearly $1,000. We all know
what a fiasco he recently made in
the prosecution of VanCamp,
charged with shooting Lowry.
Many of our people heard his con-
duct of this case. Did you ever
witness a more miserable trial Of
justiceY
Mr.. Carter is an able young at
torney, morally a man above re-
proach, he is strictly honorable in
every way, competent to dis
charge the duties of this Office, he
is industrious and will attend to
the business of the county fairly
and impartialfy, but vigorously.
Mr.. Carter will be nominated,
and he ought to be.
OF course, the Democrats will
no doubt nominate a much better
man, but TO our Republican
friends we advise you to nominate
Carter. Later we Will publish
from the records of the county
Just what Underwood has done,
and no man can or viii doubt
what his record shows.

NEARLY A FIGHT

We came near witnessing a
deadly encounter this morning on
Diamond street, near Schup-
bach's department store. Doe
Bowen was getting ready to anni-
hilate, extinguish and wipe off the
face Of the earth William Boston.
William, however, refused to be
extinguished right IN the begin
ming Of the dog-killing time, and
so, with the aid of Chief of Police
Williams, Doe was persuaded to
postpone the determination act
until later In the season. As a
chewing match the encounter was
a great and glowing success. Out
side of hot air and froth no harm
was done, and no blood was she'd.

get 40 more, and the chances are
