DUNCAN A BANKRUPT.
Former President of the Union and

States District Court Yes
terday Presented Peti-
tition to be Made a
Bankrupt.

Thomas C. Duncan, former pres
ident of the Buffalo and Union cotton
mills, and reputed to be man of
considerable wealth, was yesterday
adjudged a bankrupt in the United
States District Court and John }.
Earle. of Columbia, was appointed
referee to administer the affairs OF
the estate. The petition to have
Thomas C. Duncan adjudged bank
rupt was filed on November 13 by the
Union and Buffalo Cotton mills and
the Exchange Banking and Trust
company.
The case has also attracted no
small interest in this and other cities,
not only on account Of the money IN
voiyed, but also by reason of the
moves Of the attorneys in the case.
When the case was deferred from
Tuesday. January %, to Tuesday,
January 80, it was believed that some
compromise would be arrived at be-
tween the contending parties.
The case was to have been called
Yesterday morning at 10 o'clock, and,

General Joe Wheeler.

One by one the ranks of the chlval-
rie gray are thinning as each grlzzled
warrior passes over the river to the
Great Beyond. When General Joe
Wheeler's eyelid's closed in death
tAere passed away one Of the most
antique and picturesque characters
that helped to make the history Of the
Southern soldier bright and glorious.
True Gen. Wheeler served his coun-
try, and served it we'll, in the national
halls Of congress and in his short but
heroic service in the Spanish wal, but
it is not Of these services that we love
to remember him by. 1t was that
more glorious, more splendid, more
ehivalric devotion to his beloved
southland, as the dashing impetuous
cavalry officer in the Confederate ar
ny, striking dismay and terror to his
foes, ready for any privations, for
shall have been destroyed by the
to begin" anytime.
When the bitter animosities engen-
dered by that fratricidal struggle
shall haveb cen destroyed by the
"Reen tooth Of time" history will
accord this chivalric soul its true
niche in the temple Of honor and
fame.
It is we'll that his sacred ashes
shall rest in the soil Of the beautiful
southland which he loved 50 we'll. and
for which he was so willing to lay
aewn his life. On gentle slope at
beautiful Arlington, the former home
Of his illustrious leader, General Rob
ert E. Lee. he lies buried-the irony
Of fate that he should lie among those
who were once his deadly antagonists.
We have no disposition to appear
sectional but it occurs to us 1t, would
have been but justice to the character
of a great officer and consistent with
other states to have his remains rest
in the bosom of his native state OF
Georgia. The illustrious Lee. the I'M
mortal Jackson repose in the Sol
each so grandly and heroically de-
Tended; the knightly Wade Hampton
rests softly under the pines OF his OWL
beloved state-and it does seem that
Wheeler, the equal among the great
est Of cavalry officers, should have
been laid to rest in his native state Of
Georgia. It seems to, US it woulo
crate upon the feelings Of the Confed'
crate survivors, that one OF then
former comrades in arms shall sleeE
his last sleep among those who were
not his comrades.

nev !. p. K. Bryan, who was repre-
senting Duncan, read a petition, IN
which Duncan asked to be adjudged
bankrupt. The petition asking to be
adjudsed bankrupt came somewhat
as a surprise to those who had fol-
lowed the case in the courts. and 1t
was commented upon that Duncan
finally admitted that he was bank
rupt., and was not SO proven by the
petitioners. Of course Duncan Will
not take the stand in the bankruptcy
proceedings, but he may be called to
testify by Referee Earle at the hear
ing which will be had in Union on
February 81, and at that hearing some
light may be thrown on the books
that have been missing.
Duncan 8 Petition.
Duncan's petition read by Attor-
ney J. P. K. Bryan, was as follows:
"And now comes Thomas c. Dun
can and shows to this court that at
and before the filing Of the petition
herein his property, at fair valuation,
was altogether adequate to pay his
debts in full. That his assets consist
ed in large part Of securities and
property in course Of construction.
and these securities were pledged as
collateral.
''That it required the cooperation
Of the creditors ond pledges and rea-
sonable business management to OBJ
tain the fair and full value Of the
same.
'That Notwithstanding the earnest
endeavor Of this respondent in per-
sonal negotiation with his creditors
and the creditors of his creditors to
obtain the best results from such
properties and securities, upon fair
adustmenjt of values, the efforts OF
this respondent have been unavalllng
owing to the lack Of harmony among
his creditors. That at this time, hav-
ing made all possible efforts for CO.
operation of his creditors to realize
to the best advantage his assets, to
pav his creditors in full, and finding
the same now unayailing, he prays
that this court now declare him bank
rupt, and administer his property fo1
the benefit Of his creditors. -
When this petition was concluded
Attorney ". C. Miller, who was ac-
lively handling the case in the absence
Of H. A. NJ. Smith, moved that join
J. Earle, Of Columbia, be appointed
referee and that the first reference
be had at Union on February q. Al.
