On account of the suspension of the Me-
Capuo Savings bank Mcnday the American
National bank closed Its doors yester
day Just before the time for opening for
, business and National Hank Hxamlncr John
M. Griffith look charge of the institution.
t After the suspension of the McCaguo Sav
ings bank Monuuy the American National
officers made an application to the clearing
liouso for assistance to tide them over the
run of tlcK | > sltors which they anticipated
would follow yesterday because of a belief
that the two banks had a close relation in
business matters.
Members of the clearing house held a
meeting and declined to aid the American
' National and President John L. McCaguo
notified the bank examiner as follows :
JUNK 13,1803.-.Trlm M. Orllllth. Ksq. , Na
tional Hank Kxamlncr , Omaha : Dear Sir I
ile.ilre that you take charge of thu American
National bank of Omaha.
This action I deem necessary as a measure
of wifely to the depositors , whom 1 desire
Blmll bo equally paid their deposits.
Tlio assets at the bank will , when collected ,
pay the depositors In full.
JOHN I , . MCUAHUB President.
i At the hour for the opening of the bank n
largo crowd of uneasy and almost panic-
stricken depositors surged around the main
entrance ready to draw out their money.
They were confronted with this notice :
AMKUICAN NATIONAL HANK.
It.ink closed. In the hands ot the comp
troller of currency.
J. M. GinrriTii.
SIgmond Arnstoln posted a notice on the
1 door of this bank that nil his checks on the
' American National would bo paid ut the
Omaha National bank.
Horny-handed laborers jostled well-dressed
business men and women to get to the door ,
nnd J. Donnally , a laborer , said ho had $ . " > UO
In the American National whicli represented
the savings of ten years on a salary of $1.40
per day Ho was very much excited and
the perspiration rolled down his tanned
1 cheeks us ho thought of his little fortune
, being swept away. Ho was very much re
lieved , however , when ho was assured by Mr.
McCagun that ho would get every cent of
his money In the course of time.
It was learned that this bank has . * . " 0,000
of the city funds which were deposited there
by City Treasurer Holln. This deposit is
secured by a bond of ? 'JOO,000 which is signed
by 1C. M. Morseman , A. J. Charleton , It. S.
Hall. A. \Vyman , A. R. Dufrcno , W. L.
and J. L. McCague , so that the city Is lu no
danger of losing anything.
Hank Kxumliirr'fi Statement.
Rank Examiner Griffiths was found inside
the American National bank directing the
work of making out a complete statement of
its affairs. Ho said : "I believe this is an
honest failure. To put It briefly the Amer
ican National was forced to suspend
in anticipation of a disastrous run
as a result of the failure of the McCairuo
Savings yesterday , People generally bo
Hove there Is a connection between thcso
two banks because the McCagucs are inter-
c'slcd in both institutions , but J. L. McCaguo
has Informed mo that the affairs of each
bank are entirely separate and independent
of each other , and that the Savings bank
lias some reserve deposits in the National.
"Tho olficials of the latter bank held a
meeting just after the failure of the Savings
bank and decided to request assistance from
the clearing honso officials. The clearing
liouso people called a special meeting and re
fused to grant the request , and the olllcials
of this bank concluded that suspension was
inevitable and turned their business over
to mo.
"I liavo great confidence in Cashier Henry
Wyman , and think the affairs of the bank
are In fairly good condition. There Is over
MO.OOO . In the vaults , but as yet it Is Impossi
ble for mo to ascertain the assets and liabil
ities , or what class of securities they are
handling. I may bo able to make my report
to Comptroller F-cklcs in a week or ten days
mid then a public statement will bo made. "
Depositor * Wilt I In I'll Id 111 Full.
President J. L. McCaguo authorized the
statement that all the depositors would bo
paid in full and bo thought that thcv would
soon bo able to rcsumo business. Ho also
' said that their securities were all good und
could be realized on In duo time.

It Is alleged that thu available resources o
this bank liavo been considerably deplctci
on account of a continued run of depositor :
who were taking out their money and Invest
ing it in land and other property. This rui
was caused by the uneasy feeling which hai
pervaded financial circles for the past slxf
days and because of the Chicago and castari
bank failures. This feeling was also aug
inented by the stringency of thu money mat
kct.

Itroi. ' Statement.
The following statement has been an-
dress by the McCaguo Uros. to their friends
and patrons :
To Our Multitude of Friends and Many
Patrons : HUdno that wo make a brief state
ment. Thu calamities that have during the
past twenty-four hours overtaken the Institu
tion that have been under our inanaKenffnt U
the natural result of the hunt continued
Htrlnguiicy In the money market and the quiet
withdrawal of the deposits for actual use by
our many patrons.
The shrinkage of deposits diirlmt the patt
sixty days h IH been unusual and unexpected.
I hl.scomltig al a time when owing to the un
certainty as to the financial policy of the
government and the general distrust existing
In Ibtanclal clrclr.i. It was Impossible to quickly
.roall/e upon secnrltlas and thus meet thocon-
* stant demand made by the depositors for
money.
In view of thcso facts anil In order to pro
tect all our depositors nnd place them all
upon unequnl basis , wo deemed It necessary
to take the steps that wo have , and , therefore.
placed the McCauuo Savings bank In charge of
thestatu banking board , and the American
National bank In charge of the comptroller of
tlm currency.
The undersigned , helm : the principal owners
In both Institutions , hereby desire to express
tholr appreciation ot the .sympathy that has

A crowd of depositors was at the doors of
the Omaha Savings bank before the hour
for opening arrived yesterday , and it was evi
dent that a run was to bo made. The officers
of the bank realized this fact , and were
prepared for it. When the doors
were thrown open there was a rush
for the paying teller's window , and the room
was quickly filled. It was an excited and
unreasonable crowd , and they pushed and
hauled and shoved ono another in their anx
iety to bo the first to withdraw their de
posit.
The officers nnd directors of the bank were
on baud and their presence and words of as
surance went a long way toward quelling
the fears of the panicky-stricken mortals on
the outside. Senator Manderson , who is
the president of the bank , was at
his deslc. Ho assured the crowd that
each depositor should receive his money
as rapidly as the teller could hand It
out. Ho said the bank was prepared to meet
every obligation and had tlio money on hand
to do it with. The directors arid stock
holders were present and were ready to sign
personal guarantees that the deposit of anyone
ono would bo paid. Every dollar ho
possessed in the world was behind the bank ,
as were the personal belongings
of the other stockholders. The
words of the senator were applauded and
considerably allayed the fears of many.
The moro heavy depositors contented
themselves with accepting the personal
guaranty of some stockholder , and per
mitted their money to remain la the handset
ot the bank. Senator Manderson signed
many , as did Lewis M. Bennett , the vice
president , an ! John 13. Wilbur , the cashien
and Thomas L. Kimball , Henry Pundt and
Truman Uuck. The deposits for the most
part that were withdrawn were of the
smaller amounts.
Bound ni n Itook ,
Cashier Wilbur said that the bank was In
condition to withstand the run and was as
sound as a rock. livery stockholder was
prepared to guarantee the payment of every
deposit , and If that was not satisfactory the
money was in the bank and would bo paid
out on demand. Ho said ho had signed a
number of guaranties und if ho did not know
that the bank was sound ho would not have
done so. The sixty-day proviso of
the state banking law was not being taken
advantage of , and tlio deposits would be
paid as rapidly as there was a demand. Mr.
Wilbur said that these withdrawing their
money were the smaller depositors , who
were unacquainted with buslncs.i ideas , and
nothing but money would satisfy them in
such a caso. The larger depositors had been
reassured and were leaving their money.
Yesterday the management of the
Grant Smelting company gave notice to their
hundreds of employes that any of thorn hav
ing deposits in the Omaha Savings bank
could send their deposit books to the office
nnd that the company would guarantee the
payment of the amount ot each ono. This
evidence of confidence In the stability of the
concern reassured the smelter employes and
they remained at their work , and but a very
small number visited the bank to withdraw
their deposits.
The people continued to stream Into the
bank during the forenoon and the number
remained about the same during tlio entire
time. At the noon hour the crowd was
greatly augmented by laboring men , many ol
whom were undoubtedly attracted simply
out of curiosity. When the crush was at its
i
; height Senator Manderson pushed his way
to the front door and after considerable dim-
ds culty mounted a box. vVhcn ho began to
dn speait the paying tellers ceased work and
tlio crowd left the bank and cro\vdcd about
n the senator , n number of ladles being lu
s the front ranks ,
II llnw tliu Hank Duna Itnsine
Senator Manderson reviewed briefly the
history of the bank and told of tin
run some years ago which il so sue
t cc-ssfully withstood , the rush to redo
1posit being as gre.it as was the rush to draw
n out. He said that In the bank's fourteen
years It had novnr lost a dollar au almosi

CHICAGO , Juno S. [ Special Telegram to
TUB Hnu.j Great Interest is felt in army
circles and particularly by officers stationed
In the city , over the proposed restoration of
the army divisions. The plan proposed looks
to the separation of the country into two
great divisions the headquarters of one
being In Now York and these of the other In
Chicago. The Mississippi would not ncccs
sarlly bo the dividing line for it is argued
that the ranklnggeneral whoso headquarters
would probably bo as now , lu the cast would
have too small a command.
Nothing in army orders In late years cre
ated moro talk than the abolition of the di
visions two years ago. Chicago , from being
the headquarters of four great departments ,
became the reporting place for posts of only
ono geographical division the Department
of Missouri. The change closely followed
the Sioux campaign of 1SU1 , and army ofll-
ccrs were not slow to say that two major
generals had their commands curtailed on
account of personal reasons. The opinion
was held as largely in civilian circles as well.
13ut now comes the talk of"the restoration of
the old order of things upon a scale that will
increase the authority of the very generals
whoso power was largely cut oft two years
ago.
General Kcliolleld's Dolro > .
General Schodeld was charged with in-
llucncing the authorities to abolish the
divisions , though later the secretary relieved
him from the burden and took upon himself
the responsibility of the recommendations
that Ion tothcehango. GeneralSchofleld will
retire in 189.1 by the action of the
compulsory retirement law. Generals Sher
man and Sheridan who preceded him
as heads of the army were made
I icutcnant generals by special acts of
congress , the rank ceasing with tholr
deaths. General Schofleld is credited with
wishing the rank restored so that ho may
retire with the high honor that was given
Sherman and Sheridan.
Friends of General Schofleld said that the
doing away with the army divisions could
not have boon his work , for by their aboli
tion the only logical reason outside of his
good record for making him a lieutenant
general were put away. When the divisions
were abolished major generals were superior
to brigadiers only in name- and pay , and the
service becoming in reality only a lot of de
partments commanded by brigadier generals ,
there could bo no reason for raising the rank
of a man who commanded the whole above
that of major general.
With the restoration of the divisions and
the making of difference in rank between
major generals and brigadier general's moro
marked. It will be urged that the head of all
should bear the yet higher rank which Sher
man and Sheridan graced.
What thu Clinngo Means.
If Chicago aeain becomes divisional head
quarters , the departments of the Missouri ,
the Platte , Dakota , the Columbia , Arizona
and California will all report directly to Chicago
cage , instead of to headquarters at Wash
ington , as at prc.sent. Tlio Department of
Texas was not included in the above list be
cause it may bo turned over to the Division
of the East to more nearly balance the com
mands. General O. O. Howard will retire
in the fall of 18'Jl , one year before General
Schollcld's time is up. Howard will there
fore never command the army unless death ,
resignation or a court martial removes Gen
eral Schollcld within fourteen months. Upon
General Howard's retirement General Miles
will probably go to Now York.
The major general appointed to the va
cancy made by General Howard's retire
ment will doubtless bo General T. H. Rugor ,
now the ranking brigadier general of the
army. Ho will take command fri Chicago ,
but will not hold his now honors long , for
his retirement will bo forced soon by the ago
limit and General Wesley Morritt will como
to the city to succeed him.
U is barely possible that congress may
upset all Junior generals' plans by exempting
General Swhollold from the action of the
compulsory rotlromenUaw. General Slier-
mau was thus exempted , but ho refused to
take advantage of the provision aud retired
when 04 years old.

fewer , Uuropo is buying our grain In greater
quantities , gold shipments lmv ceased at
least for the present , confidence Is being re
stored and money Is not so tight.
The treasury not gold has Increased from
* SU,000,000 to $ UliOO,000 : and the demand for
small money In the west will have the effect
to further iacrcaso the treasury gold. The
rate of exchange Is sufficiently high to
warrant the shipment of gold abroad , but
the fact that commercial paper Is for'salc In
London has a deterrent effect.
There Is a general feeling that the worst
is passed , few leading financial aud business
linns having succumbed , while these that

stronger for having weathered the financial

New DEnroni ) , Mass. , Juno 13. On the
resumption of the Lizzia Dordcn
trial this morning the cross-ex
amination of Dr. Dolau was continued ,
Nothing of special Interest was brought out ,
and ho gave way to Dr. R S.
Wood of Harvard Medical college. Ho
testified there was no evidence in the
stomachs of Mr. and Mrs. Hordcn that
they had been poisoned. The contents indi
cated a difference of an hour and a half in
time of death. Ho found no blood on
anything connected the case cither
instruments or clothing , except a small spot
of blood on a white sirirt , which was human
blood and probably came from the outside.
The haiidlcss hatchet might have been
cleanoJ.
Dr. Draper also testified as an expert
touchinir the woun'ds , condition of stomach
and blood , and declared from his examina
tion of the skulls the Instrument which pro
duced the wounds , three nnd one-half inches
long , was the handlelcss hatchet.
At the conclusion of Dr. Draper's examina
tion , Dr. Choover , surgical expert , was
called. Ho testified that the handlelcss
hatchet could make all the blows on the
bodies ; that the ono blow on Mrs. Bordcn
was made by a person facing her , and said ,
on cross-examination , that the blood would
naturally fall ou tlio. assailant. Thoro-\vas
a striking and dramatlo illustration a Httlo

the skull of Mrs. Dordcn. Mr. Adams
stood before the witness , who is tall , spare
and deliberate in his movements. A now
hatchet was hold aloft a moment , inclined to
the left and then flashed through the air.
straight as it seemed towards the skull of
Mr. Adams. When it seemed as If the

CHICAGO , Juno in. [ Special Telegram to
THE Htic. ] Kulalla of Spain has discovered
that there are two Palmer families in "our
sot. " There Is trouble not only at the
Palmer House , but at the Palmer homo as a
result.
It Is whispered that when the Spanish
princess consented to accept the hospitali
ties of the magnlHccnt mansion at 100 L.ako-
shore drive , she did so under the Impression
that It was Mrs. T. W. Palmer who waste
to bo her hostess , and not until
after the invitations had been put
about did she discover that the house
she was going to and the tavern which she
was going from were both under the same
management. It was the afternoon ' of
the reception day when the horrible dis
covery was made that a daughter of Charlo-
mango and a Uourbon of Spain had been
asked to drop around and visit people who
kept an inn.
The infanta declared flatly , rumor has It ,
that she would not go.
Commander Davis went out of ono spasm
Into another.
The Infante Antonio took up a trco.
The duke of Tomalcs wept.
llnw Slio Hot Uven.
Still the Infanta would not yield. She
was prepared to do anything In reason , she
said , but she drew the line at Innkeepers.
However , rather than have Commander
Davis resign his position near her person ,
she consented to go , giving it out cold that
she would take her change out of that
woman.
So when the carriage bearing her royal
highness came up to that woman's house and
Mrs. Palmer , acting strictly under the'
monarchical union rules , as far as they are
understood out hero in the rowdy west , came
out and kissed Eulalia's hand , coram pub-
hco , the infanta did not respond to her cue
at all. She got back her royal hand and
carried It into the house herself , mail clean
through.
l''or the rest of the evening she coppered
every play that Chicago society mado. She
came late , and made up for it by going away
early. She was there long enough , however ,
to tread on every corn in sight. She was
not enthusiastic over the people she met ,
and she modillod their enthusiasm as far as
it could bo done without the actual use of a
club.
litilalia swore a solemn Spanish "IIopc-I-
may-dio" that Chicago society should never
get its clamps on her ap'in. She said that
enough was as good as a feast. She has kept
her word , and Chicago knows the infanta no
more. *
But the little lady Is having a very good
Spanish-American time of it nevertheless.
Given 1111 American Itoust.
The Tribune will tomorrow publish an
editorial peed by to the infanta that is a
severe castigation of Spanish royalty. The
editorial is double-leaded , and is probably
inspired moro by the Palmer episode than
any other ono tnuig. It begins :
After a brief but not altogether satisfactory
visit to Chicago , I'rlnccis Kulalla and bur
snlto will take leave of the city todur. It
cannot bo atllrmcd thai Chicago ha : ; not
done Its whole duty In entertaining thu
Spanish Infanta , or that It bus not donu
It graciously , lavishly and enthusiastically.
Whether the game has been worth the candle ,
however. Is an open question. Tboso upon
whom thn duty of entertaining SpanUh roy
ally has devolved cannot lie blamed If they foci
that they have wasted bothtlmo and olfort
and that tlii'Ir endeavors to extend llttlng
courtesy and extraordinary honor huvo been
souils Hung away on barren ground. Hoyalty
at bust Is a troublesome customer for re
publicans to dual with , and royalty of the
Spanish sort Is the most troublesome of all.
The editorial , continuing at length , refers
to the "insuperable chasm between the effete -
fete monarchist ! ! of Spain and the fresher
civilization of the now world , " aim says :
Aillos , anil Good Inek to Von.
AR the result of thcso difference" ? the effort
of Chicago to consort with Custllo and Aragon
has not been particularly happy or miccossful.
Homo things that we do evidently were not ap
preciated by tlio Hpanlhh guests. His certain
that several things done by the latter were
distasteful and otfcnslvo to their American
hosts. This being tlio case , It is hotter the
two should part company politely but doll-
nltcly. with mutual assurances that the partIng -
Ing will not break heart.s on either side ,
and that the acquaintance will never
1)0 ) renewed nndor blmllar conditions. It was
tholr custom to como late and leave early ,
leaving behind them the general regret that
tliuy hud not come still later and K < "IU away
Ktlll earlier , or , better still perhaps , that they
had not como at all. The Infanta on one oc
casion brouKlit a bad temper with lior , and
vented It upon those who had been Invited to
meet her. Nothing had transpired to provoke
this dUplay of temper , nor was there anything
of a nature to keep It alive.
The editorial concludes :
In saying goodby to I'rlnccss Kulalla , Chicago
cage cherishes no resentment. It bids her
( Jodspecd , and bonds uood wishes after her
and hern , and Is sorry. Itconldnot appreciate
queenly etiquette or endure with proper
beronlty those peculiar prerogatives with
which royalty hedges Itself In , Hence It hayH
"adlos" with such grace as It can and will now
devote Itself anew to the NIICCCSS of lu great
exposition , humbly trusting It may not bu In
terrupted attain by troublesome reprosenta-
llvi'H of crown , especially of those somewhat
frayed and tarnished In the wearing ,

The World's fair visitors today witnessed
a novel picture of the Wild West In gondolas ,
HulTulo 1U11 and his Indians took a rldo
through the lagoons and the relics of tlio
Occident and Orient mot and made a curious
picture. Thousands of people crowded the
edees of the lagoons aud watched the
parade pass.
Colonel Cody was In the load and was
applauded as the crowd recognized him.
Ho gracefully responded by lifting
his hat and bowing continually to
them. The Indians seemed to enjoy the rldo.
They laughed and chuckled and cast many
longing glances at the big oars used by the
gondoliers as if they wanted to try the work
themselves , The parade entered the Sixty-
fourth street gate and marched to the plaza ,
The gondoliers were awaiting them at the
grand basia in front of Machinery hall ,
Some time was required in getting the party
on board and several awkward Indians came
near falling into the water. The gondoliers
oycd the redskins and took great pains to
jtrovent too much familiarity. After the
excursion was over the party returned to the
camp.

heating Irons In an apartment near the stair

useless by the fact that the Iron shutters
were spiked fast in all the windows leading
to them. All rushed to the llro escapes
In the front and fought like demons. The
whole front of the building was allvo with
people , all lighting for good places oa the
llro escapes , thereby hindering each other.
Tlio ladder from the second story to the
pavement was hot yet In places , and several
jumped from that point. The first was a
woman , who fell on an Iron paling in front of
thn building and was killed. Next came
two men , wno fell on their heads and had
their skulls crushed. Others lauded on
their feet on aud suffered little Injury.
The llro department Ilnally got ladders
along the side and assisted 'the remainder
to escape. Some were driven stark mad by
the fright. In the meantime the building

Tlio temperature of the past week was
very near the seasonable average , thy first
half being below and the last half aboro the
normal. The raintall was abundant in all
sections , and excessive In many localities ,
the reported measurements ranging from
two to five inches , resulting In sonio local
damage to crops by washing and overflow.
Generally , however , the weather was
favorable for all crops , the generous showers
being followed by bright sunshine and warm
winds. Good progress has been made in the
cultivation of corn , which now shows a
fairly good stand and Is generally clean. In
the replant area the prospect Is fluttering
for a full crop ,
Oats shows a thin stand In some localities
and a tendancy to rank growth in others ,
but with favorable conditions in the future
It will bo a much bettor crop than lust year.
Pastures and meadows are luxuriant , except -

CHICAGO , Juno 1U. The Farmers' Rovlow
has received from correspondents In cloven
states reports regarding the condition of
winter wheat. The Review tomorrow , In a
summary , will say :
The condition of winter wheat has Ira-
proved greatly in the last few days but will
fall far short of n good crop. In Illinois the
improvement is very noticeable , but so much
of the area of wheat has boon de
stroyed that some Hcctlons tvlll got Httlo
bcnotlt from the improvement. Some cor
respondents report that nine-tenths of the
wheat acreage In their localities has been
abandoned. The Improvement 1ms cotUm-
ued In Indiana and Ohio. In the latter Htato
the outlook is good. Little chtnigo is seen in
the condition of wheat In Michigan , but In
Kentucky the Improvement Is marked and a
good crop In assured. In Mlisourl and Kan
sas conditions are still adverse , though them
have been luuiroveraenls In lomu localities ,
Iowa and 'Wlicousiu promise a compare
lively good yield.
