CLOSED BV TUB DIRECTORS.
A Scranton Bank Emptied lly the
Cashler Depositors Indignant.
At the clese of business en Saturday the
directors of the Scranton City bank an
nounced that the concern would net I d
reopened for the present. This action was
taken after a meeting of the directors at the
Scranton house, where ene of their number,
Charles Threo, reported that he had exam
ined the books of (he bank, and had j found
that Geerge A. Jcssup, who was ylce presi
dent and cashler, was In default te the
amount of $100,000. Alderman Reesler
Issued a warrant, at the instance of two of
the directors, for the arrest of Jcsstin. The
entire beard then assembled in the bank.
Police Officer Rldgeway came in seen af
terward with the warrant and placed the
cashier under arrest. Jcssiip protested te
the directors that he would be able te .real
ize en all the lm est ments that he had made
and te meet the Indebtedness If they would
give hltn time, but they informed hltn that
the bank was te be closed at once. He
asked for time le arrange his papers, and
the ofllcer waited for him te de this. At 5
o'clock the cashler appeared befere the al
derman and gave ball In the sum of 923,000,
Dr. II. II. Throop, ene of the directors, who
says that he Is satisfied that Jcssiip will
niake geed the dcticit, bocaine bondsman.
The directors placed full confidence In
Jcssiip and did net suspect that anything
was wrong until It was discovered that he
had made teahs In a loose manner. The
investigitlen that followed brought out the
fact that he had used the money of the
bank te buy coal lands. It was also as
certained that his style of living was net
sustained by his Income He entertained
lavishly and kept an expensive stuble, all of
whlih made his expenses high. He siys
that there Is abundant collateral for the
investments which he made. He owns
eighty acres of Scranton coal land, in which
he was trying te Interest capitalists. He is
also a heavy stockholder In local enter
prises, but was uuable te roallre en his In
vestments In tlme te avert tlie disaster. His
bend te the bunk calls for $.25,000 only. He
has numerous prominent Bnd wealthy rol rel rol
atives in that region, and It Is probable that
if he is net able te meet his dcticit they will
co'me te his relicf. The bank wub a private
Institution. Its capital stock was $100,000,
ene-half of which had been paid In. There
Is much Indignation because the bank
continued te recelve deposits until the clese
of banking Iheurs. It had a large patron
age. Jeseph II. Gunstcr has been ap
pointed assignee. One of the directors said
that the deposits amount te about $.100,000.
Edward Mcrrificld, ene of the directors
of the collapsed bank, says It was ascer
tained at a meeting of the beard en Sunday
night that the amount due te dcposlteis Is
e.li'AOOO. The assets Include due bills
anion nt I ng t e $100,000 and overdraft s, vv hlch
It is hoped will be made geed te the amount
of $17,000. The slip-shed system which
permitted the, patrons of the bank te over
draw their aceeunts te this large amount Is
severely criticised. Dr. 11. II. Throop, the
president of the bank and Its largest stock
holder, had 80.2,000 en deposit there w lien
It closed its doers. All the ethor directors
drew out their deposits Saturday afternoon.
Jessup's friends think he ought te arres
the directors for criminal llbel. The di
rectors, en the ether hand, Intend te have
Jessup indicted by the grand jury, w hlch
meets this week. Most of these havlmr
money In the wrecked bank are peer, hard
w erkfng people, and their deposits repre
sent me savings ei years.

At 'l:30 Sunday morning William L.
Glenn knocked at the bed-room deer of his

some young assistant rector of St. Paul's
Kpiscepal church, Baltlmeie, but he said
he did net wish te be disturbed as he was
about te take his ballu ' Half an hour later
Rev. Dr. J. S. P. Hedges, the rector of St.
Paul's was Informed by the housekeeper of
St. Paul's house that she had heard the re ro

that Scherr had net been te early serviee

Ne inquest will be held. The St. Paul's
house, Ne. ISO1.) Cathedral stieet, In which
the unfortunate man lived, Is a eli.irit.ibje
.be.udiug house under the auspices of
the church, mid the llrst fleer was
used as a Sunday school. Scherr, aged
2), graduated at the Phlladelph'ii
Div inity school live years age, and has becii
the assistant rector of St. Paul's slnce last
October, previous te which tinie he had
had a charge in McKccsiHirt, Pa. He was
a constant smoker and had seme heart
trouble and frequently had fits of despon
dency, perhaps because of financial troubles
and unrequited affection. His mind pre
sumably was utlceted, for at times he
gave strange reasons for his periodical
gloominess. Saturdav night he called
en a young lady of the congregation
and the result of the iuterview made him
quite gloomy. A policeman was stationed
outside the church, en Sunday, te prevent
him from annoying seme of the congrega
tion with his attentions, but he at that
tlme was at home meditating en taking his
life. After his call Saturdav night he v.-cnt
te the shoemaker shop of his lather. Wn
asked w hy he was se silent he said : " A ..
that money Is lest ; the man Is dead. " This
explains that remark. Some time age the
son get u lean of $500 from his father,
which he Mid he w Ished te add te $000 of
his own te pay a uote he had indorsed for
a friend, a grocer of McKcespert, l'a., and
afterwards he said this grocer gave him
notes for the amount but would nevcrpay.
rinding that the minister had employed a
lawyer te protect his rights this grocer
committed suicide. Frederick Scherr, the
father, believes this story and that his son
se worried himself about being the indi
rect cause of the grocer's death by pressing
him for uvmcnt that he had committed
suicide. He did net, hewever, knew the
naine of the grecer of w heni his son hid

CURTJX AND CAMERON.

Washington dispatch te Philadelphia Becerd.
Colonel Jehn Hay and Mr. Jehn C. Nlco Nlce
lay, In a note te w bat seme call " thelr his
tory of the United Slates, with incidental
allusions te Abraham Lincoln," quotea
letter from General Simen Cameren te
President Lincoln, dated Scptcinber 18,
1803, in which, speaking of Governer Cur
tlti's second canvass, he said that Curt in
would be re-elected and that all his
friends would support him, but that
" If the result were te operato simply en
his own prlvate fertunes thcre are many
geed Republicans and pious Christians
who would soe him in hell first. He w III
cheat us when it Is ever, and. If he can, he
will soil us te our enemies. But he is new
by ene of these accidents which sometimes
control great ovents the representative of
the loyalty of this state, and. his defeat
might be disastrous te the country. My
heart Is tee much engaged In the slrnggle
for ending the rebellion te allow me te
hesitate at even the supjiert of Mr. Curtln."
I wender if the historians knew hew Im
possible It seemed at ene tlme that Curtln
would be a candidate for re-election te the
governorship. This Is the story as it was
told te me the ether day.
In the spring of 1803 Curtln was in
wretched physical condition as the result
of overwork and overworry. Ills wlfe vvas
greatly troubled about him, and vvas anx
ious that he should net be a candidate for
re-election. She sent for Colonel A. K. Me Me
Clure, as Curt ill's closest friend, and told
him her fears and desires. He was touched
and Impressed, and premised te try te ar
nmgn it fur and with Curtln, who vvas then
planning te stay lust where he vvas. Curtln
happened te be in Washington. MeClure
eauie right down here, went te see him and
told him very frankly that he thought
Curtln ought net stffd for re-election
in his state of health, and said te him
Anally: " If President Lincoln should eiler
you a lirst-class foreign mission would you
glve up this ro-clectien. take It and go
abroad t" Curtln thought It overland said
he would. "Alt right," said McClure, and
posted oil" te sce Colonel Kernoy, te whom
lie stated the situation and breached his
plan, which was te get General Cameren te
go with Colonel Kernoy and himself te ask
the president te tender the foreign mission
te Curtln. Ferney agrced with him that it
could and should be dene. While they
were talking General Cameren cameinand
they told him all about It. He vvas very
glad te hear that Curtln thought of net run
ning for governor again, but net se glad te
help get him the foreign mission which
w as the condition precedent. Hevvcv er, he
finally agreed te go with them te the Whlte
Heuse When they wne ushered In Me Me
Clueo told the president why they were,
each from a different motive, desiring the
same thing.
Lincoln heard him through and then
turned te General Cameren, who added his
continuation te what MeClure had said,
Colonel Porney coming in vv lth his concur
rence nt the end. The president replied :
"I haven't get a first-class mission just
new," he said. "Isuppose a second-class
ene wouldn't de?" "I don't knew why
net," said Cameren. "Ne," said Me Me
Clueo, "It wouldn't." "Well," said
the president, after seme reflection, " I'll
tender him the first lirst-class vacancy.
Will that de T" " Yes." said MeClure. Se
vlhe president sat dew u and wrote a grace-
iui ami gracious letter te uiinm, leiiiug
hint hew he apprcaciated his great services
and regretted fils ill-health, and winding
up with a most complimentary tender of
the next first-class vacancy in the diplo
matic service. MeClure took the letter
te Curtln, who was delighted with it,
and btraiglitway announced that he would
net be a candidate for ro-electiou. But no
sooner had the news gotten out through the
state than his friends every w here
rese up and pretested se vigor
ously and enthusiastically as te at
ence change Curtln's mind and heal his
liedy. He liewcd te the will of the people,
withdrew his withdrawal, thus dcejiciilng
Cameren's dlsllke for him, and was tri
umphantly ro-elected. Ne wonder Cam Cam
eeon wrete se bitterly when he thought
hew nearly he had gotten Curtln out ofthe
country.

MR. CARN'EGIK'S OPINIONS.
'He Leeks te. Pee the United Stated Send
Steel Ralls te Seuth America.
Londen DLpatch te New Yerk Herald.
Andrew Cnrnegle yesterday aald : "Here
tofore America has been unable te supply
her own market, much less expert; but
Just new the situation Is novel. Prices
vv hlch have risen and are rising In Kumpc
have fallen and are falling In America.
" Steel rails recently sold In Pittsburg as
cheap as delivered In Londen by the Log Leg
lisli manufacturers namely, JC5h ten. The
prices we are getting for steel plates are
about the aniue that prevail here. Hitherto
English prices have depended en the
American demand. New the demands of
the rest of the world, exclusive of Amerlca,
together with the British wants, are su in
dent te keep the manufacturers here busy,
Aa long as this condition continues and
prices keep advancing America will be able
te expert te Seuth American countries
articles In which heretofore she has net
been able te cumpete with Kurepe, se there
appears new te be a great cliance for
America te establish mere extensive coin
menial relations with her neighbors.
" It is a curious fact that the steel rails
that Canada will require this season will In
all probability be furnished by American
manufacturers. I predict that such will be
the case. Tula Van occur 'only at times
when European prices are high under great
demands and Ainerlcan prices low under a
state of depression such as new exists. It
has never occurred befere In my tlme,
though ence befere we sold rails In Canada
bocause the English mamifaclureir, by
combining, forced prices up. The present
situation results from natural causes and
premises well for America.
"The cause Is the protcctlve system
which the Ilcruld denounces. Protection
te home Industries is bound te benefit
America. America would be paying lliren
fines as much as she does for steel mils In d
s'ie net protected that Industry.
'."The day lo'ere I It ft home Senater War
ner Miller told me he had exjKirtcd a large
quantity of paper te Liverpool te be used
by a Liverpool nowspaier, and that he
netted as geed prices as he received at
home. But understand me, this Is net.
likely te be permanent, for whenever Great
Britain's capacity le mamitaeture cannot
be absorbed nt home or abroad she will
threw her surplus le Amerlca us heretofore
"I read what ox-Mayer Hewitt said
about the basic process. It Is true that the
basts process is the only ene known which
will make the ores ofthe south suituble for
steel; but as long as Iiake Superior Is able
te supply pure ere steel mnnufacturers
will probably stick pretty closely
te the present acid process. The
basic protess is geed only as n substi
tute. I de net think that mils can be made
by that process and sold for $25 ier gross
ten, as they can new by the acid process. I
am net holding that the manufacture of
rails by the acid process at $25 per ten can
continue profitably, for it cannot. Such
prices are only reached by the thiocsef
competition."
AGAIN SHUT OUT.
The Lancaster Clrib Succeeds In Making
n 111k Errer Column.
On Saturday afternoon the Cuban Giants
and tlie Lancaster base Kill clubs played
their second game in Hits series, and the
home team vvas badly defeated. On
Friday It seemed that tliu home
club was showing what geed ball
they could play, but en Satunlay It was
just the opposite. The game vvas an excel
lent ene te the fourth Inning, and the audi
ence of j00 people was delighted. The home
club then seemed te go e plece-i and the,
darkeys succeeded in securing no Jess than
tlve rims. Kllrey was hit hard and he

An Immense Crowd Views the lledy and
Fellows II te the Grave.
The funeral efvI)r. Crenin In Chicago en
Sunday was a most remarkable allalr. The
cerpse had been lying In state In the
Cavalry armory en the lake front, and
there early Sunday morning the morbid and
curious, with the dead man's friends, made
their pilgrimage.
Armed sentries from the Hibernian Hides
steed arms-ut-rcst at each corner of the
raised platfeim, en which leposed the cata
falque and cellln. A crayon imrtroltef
the dead man, draped In black, steed near
the cellln. Leaving the armory, the cas
ket wus placed in n hearse drawn by four
black herses, and the precession was
formed. At the head was a platoon of
pollce and Marshal Cuhtll and his aids.
A drum corps preisjdcd the Hibernian
Hltles with arms reversed, and then came
the cortctre with the hearse In a pa.
only of black and guard of honor from the
lUIles and the pall-bearers. The Clati-ua-Gacl
giiunls, in gray uniforms and trl trl trl
eolered plumes, tlie uniformed rank of the
Hoyal Arcanum, In Its Ollve colored suits,
uiiu thousands of mimbers of the Ancient
Onlcr of United Workmen, without uni
forms, came next.
The Ancient Onler or Hibernians, 1,000
strong, several courts or llie Independent
Onler of Foresters, 1,200 In all, and 2,700
Cuthellu Foresters vvure In line. The Hoyal
Lcague, the Sheridan Blllcs, the Catholic
Benevolent 1-ogleu, and fragments of n
number of ether onlers swelled the line.
Murslial Cnhlllfuld that 7,170 men wero lu
the precession. The line was thirty-live
minutes passing the corner of Indiana and
Bush streets, four abreast.
I'eur bands and half a dozen drum corns
played dirges or marked slew time of the
funeral march. Scores of furled Hags
dra ted In black and society banners edged
with crape were carried by the standard standard
hcurers. Beaching llie Cathedral of the
Hely Name, an immense crowd was en en en
counleied. The vast tsllllce was packed
two hours bofeio the ceremonies began.
The space reservist for the marching soclo seclo socle
tles was Inadoquale for the half of their
members. Nearly oneduilf of the church
was set aside for them. Only an escort of
the Hibernian Billesiiud detachments rep
i denting the d I He rent societies entered the
cathedral.
A Hal Move 1'er Harrison.
President Harrison never did u mere, In
judicious or Impolitic thing, from his own
point of view, than te remit the line of
Simeon Cey, the Marlen county, (lud.),'

him. The committee, of ene huiulred of
IndiauaNilis. composed chlntly of Demo

procure the conviction of Cey and
ethor Demecrats a year ami u-hulf
age. On the thinl trial Cey vvas con
victed w ith W. F. A. Bornhamer, an at
torney, who has new served his tlme mid
returned te Indianapolis. The Itcpubllcca
exultation overtho Cey opisedo was pro
longed, Befere President Cleveland re
tired it was rumored that Cey would be
pardoned by the outgoing president. The
Henuhllcans at ence forwarded a memo
rial te the executive, asking that no such
steps be taken, and the petition for p.udeu
wusiejected. Just why President llarri llarri
sheuld Interfere In the matter is net appar
ent, and the committee of ene hundred at
a meeting te-day published its dissatisfac
tion. Attorney General Miller was t'enunuLcd
with the prosecution of the tally forgeis,
and both hound the president, iis(itl7ens
of Indianapolis, were fully cognizant of all
the facts in what is ene ofthe leading feat
ures ofthe city's history. Gen. Harrison
Is net known us a warm-hearted or sympa
thetic iiiun. but In whatever way he was
tempted te take the splce out of the cons pi
racy prosecution It Is a sad blew te his 1(0
publican friends and neighbors. Even the
president's intimates are unable te account
ler his action lu this matter. Cey's friends
ure greatly pleased ever the remission of
his line, and there Is a geed deal of smiling
ueIiik en ever the fact that the blttcrest
Hcpuhllcau partisans thcre petitioned the
president te release the little man irem the

TIIK A1Q8T1E OF TIIK LEPEHS.
A Visit te lather Damleu lu Ills Leper
Island.
The death of Father Damicn, that neble
martyr, has already been recorded. In
December last a visit te Molekal vvas made
by Mr. Kdwunt Cllffenl, and in the A'mc
recufA CWifiirj an account of Father Damicn
and his work Is presented. " Twe little
spired chuniies, looking precisely alike,
caught my eye first, ami around them
were dotted the whlte cottages of the
lepers, who crowded the pier te meet us.
Hut the sea was tee rough for us te land.
The coast Is wild, and, as the waves dashed
against the rocks, the spray rose fifty feet
Inte the air. I nover had seen such a
splendid surf.
" We went en te Kalawao, but were again
disappointed ; It vvas tee dangerous te land.
Finally it was decided te put elf a beat for
a rocky point about a mile and a half distant
from tne town. Climbing down this point
we saw about twenty lepers, and thcre is
Father Duuilcnl' said our imrsert und,
slowly moving along the hillside, I saw a
dark figure with a large straw hat. He
came rather painfully down and sat near
the waterside, and we exchanged friendly
signals across the waves whlle my baggage
was being get out of the held a long busi
ness ; for owing le the violence of the son,
nothing rlse was te be put en shore. The
captain and purser were both much Inter
ested in a case of gurjun oil, which I was
bringing for the lepers' use, and they
spared no trouble In unshipping It. At last
all was ready, and we went swinging across
the waves, and dually chose a lit moment
for leaping en shore. Father Damleu

come shone from his kindly face.
"He Is new W years old. u Ihlck-set.

and short beard, turning gray. Ills face
must have been rather handsome, with n
full, well curved mouth, and a short,
straight nese; but he Is new a wed deal
disfigured by lepresy, though net se badly
us te make It anything but a pleusure te
leek at his bright, sensible face. His fore
head Is swollen and ridged, the eyebrows
are gene, the nese Is somewhat sunk, and
the curs are greatly enlarged. Ills hands
and body also show many signs ofthe dis
ease, hut he assunsl me that he had felt
little or no pain slnce he hud tried Dr,
Goie'h system of het baths and Japanese
medicine.
"I think he hud net much faith In the
gurjun oil, but at my request he began
using It, and after a fortnight's trial the
geed etfeits became evident te all ; but It is
Impossible net te fear that after several
years' progress the disease has already
attacked the lungs or seme ethor vital
organ, and that the remedy comes tee late.
" I may mention hore that gurjun nil Is
the produce of a 11 r tree which grew s plen
tifully in the Andaman Islands.
" I did net find ene person in the Sand
wich Islands who had the least doubt as te
leprosy Itclng contagious, though It Is pos
sible In be exposed In the disease for years
without contracting It. Father Damleu told
me that he had ulwpys expected that he
should sooner or later bm-oine u leper,
though, exactly hew he caught It
he does net knew. But It was net likely
that he would cscum, ah he vvas constantly
living In a polluted utmospheio, dressing
the sullereni sores, washing their bodies,
visiting their death beds and even digging
their gnives. After living at Molekal for
about ten years, Father Damicn
began te suspect that he was a lejier. The
doctors assured him that this was net thn
case, but amcstheslu began In his lis it and
ether fatal signs upcured. One, day he
asked Dr. A l nig te glvn him n thorough
examination.
" 'I cannot liear te tell you,' said Dr.
Arnlug. i butiwakt yrttt say Is true.'
" ' It Is mi shock te me,' said Jeseph, 'for
I have long felt suie or it.'
"And he weiked en with the same
cheerful, stunly fortitude, accepting the

" He said te me, ' I would net be cured If

the island und glve ninny work.'
" A lady wreui le him. ' Yeu haveglven
up all caithlv things te serve Ged, te help

new that joy that nothing can take from
you, and a great reward liereufter. '
" ' Tell her, ' he said, w lth a quiet smile,
1 that It Is true I de have that Jey new. '
" Whlle 1 sketched him he read his
breviary, and at these times, and whlle he

looking glasses are net lu great ropiest
at Molekal.
"I need scarcely say that he gives him
self no airs of martyr, saint or here. A
humbler mun I never saw. He smiled
modestly and depreentlngly vvhen I gave
him the bishop of Peterborough's message:
'He won't accept llie blessing of a heretic
bishop, but tell lilm that he hits my prayers
and ask him te glve me hlj

he asked doubtfully, and I hud te explain
that the bishop had used the term play
