28. fSpeciaLJ The Toledo Navigation company assigned in Toledo, today to E. W. Loud of Detroit on a claim for $64,000 cash procured on accommodation paper. Other creditors later filed claims, swelling the total liabilities to $150,000.

The assets are estimated at The principal stockholders are Bills Koch, their lumber business having been merged into the Toledo Navigation company. The latter went into the vessel business to the extent of buying the schooner Ketchaoc, on which they placed a $45,000 mortgage with John Craig, the Toledo shipbuilder. It is reported that Bills has been a heavy loser in wheat on the Chicago board, and that his firm in Toledo was greatly weakened by his having withdrawn $25,000 in cash during the last thirty days. The First National Bank of Toledo is a creditor to the extent of $12,300. Mr.

Bills is expected to make a statement tomorrow. Adbiak, Nov. 28. rSpeciaL The private bank of O. P.

Bills Co. at Tecuin-seh closed its doors this afternoon. The failure ia believed to be a very serious one, and comes as a sequel to the failure of Bills fc Koch, lumber dealers in Toledo, whose liabilities are reported at nearly. $200,000. The Tecumseh firm consisted of O.

P. Bills, Nathan and Mrs. Church, who is Bills' sister. They are also associated in lumbering and banking at Alma and Ithaca under the name of Church, Bills Co. The blow to Tecumseh will be a serious one as the people had every confidence in the concern and the town funds as well as a large amount of trust funds are said to be on deposit there.

Aurora, 111., Nov. 28. iSpeciaL Kussell clothing store, in Aurora, was closed by the Sheriff this afternoon. The firm confessed judgments to the amount of $22,000. The chief creditors are the Kahn Schrenbrum Clothing company of Chicago and Herman Kussel of Aurora.

Harrison and Washington Ilesing Make Speeches-Other Persons Respond to Toasts Mrs. John W. Ela Entertain Friends Additional Social Happenings of the Day. The members of the West Chicago club, No. 50 Throop street, gave at their club-house a banquet last evening to Judge-elect and Mrs.

Philip Stein. Prominent Democrats were present, and enjoyment unconfined held sway for several hours. Mr. Stein is the first Hebrew to be elected to the bench in the State of Illinois. After the cafe noir Mr.

Julius Rosenthal, the master of ceremonies, arose, and after a short eulogy of Judge-elect Stem, introduced Carter H. Harrison, who said I was at a meeting this afternoon when word was sent me from my office Don't forget the Stein banquet tonight." At the time I was sitting beside a man whom I the handsomest man in Chicago, and he said he would be unable to attend the banquet this evening and deputized mo to convey his regrets to Judge and Mrs. Stein, hat was my dear friend, Washington Hesing. I told him that I would represent him tonight and also at the city election next spring. Imagine my snrprise when I met him here tonight as large as PrePared to speak for himself.

It was hardly fair for my handsome friend to treat me in. such a manner. Uut since he is here I won't have to speak for him. Mr. Hesing said After the meeting to which my friend referred a moment ago 1 went to my office, and as I thought over deputizing him to act for me I saw 1 had made the political mistake of my life.

I was sure he would not only express my regrets, but he would take upon himself the office of administrator of my political affairs and I thought it would stand me in hand to attend the banquet myself.

Fla 36 66 36 30.16 30 76 36 32 34 Cl 'udy The Democratic Bosses Are Angry at What They Consider an Attempt on the Fart of the Independent Candidate to Disrupt Their Force A Circular to the Faithful and Rules to Be Followed Executive Committee Ready to Consider Applications for Political Positions. There are many indications that all is not peaceful in the Democratic camp. Carter H. Harrison's independent canvass fer Mayor, already begun, disturbs the bosses. They fear it will disrupt the Democratic local organization and lead to confusion.

They were angry indeed yesterday when one of their number was presented the following circular, which was sent out to faithful Harrisonian Democrats Saturday evening and yesterday morning Herewith you will please find "rules' for the formation of branch associations in the various wards. We trust that they will be faithfully adhered to, so that we can rely on a thorough and systematic organization of every ward in Chicago. We cannot too strongly impress upon you the necessity of organizing in your ward at once. Under the Australian law it is imperative that conventions to nominate candidates shall be held at least thirty days before the election. That be-, ing the case, there is no doubt that the convention in which we are interested will be held in February, so that it is of the utmost importance thatyou (in conjunction with tno other members of the committee from your ward) call a meeting during the coming week and make arrangements for a complete organization of your ward by precincts.

HoDing that you will give this matter your immediate attention, we remain yours, William Makglee, President. Robert E. Burks, Secretary. The purpose of the Harrison men in starting those independent organizations," said one of the wheel horses, "is to override the regular organization. At least they cannot fail to come into conflict.

And there you are. Confusion and demoralization must follow. 'Tis time to read the riot act to Carter and his followers." The rules of the organization alluded to in the foregoing circular are as follows No branch of the association shall be recognized as such by the main association unless there shall be published -at least twice in the political announcement column of the Chicago Daily News and also in the Chicago Times a "jcall" which shall be couched in the following language All Democrats of the Ward who desire the election of Carter H. Harrison as World's Fair Mayor are requested to meet on evening at hall at o'clock for the purpose of organizing." After the organization of the branch association in accordance with the above call," the Secretary of the said branch association shall at once forward to the Secretary of the main association a full roster of the officers and, from week to week, a list of all members of said branch association, together with their various places of residence. Meetings of the branch association shall be held at least once a week.

Upon the completion of the permanent organization a precinct organization shall be formed at once, said precinct organization to consist of at least five members, and as many more members in each precinct as can be procured. Democrats opposed to Harrison say that the plain intention of those rules is to supersede the regular organization with a Harrisonian Tammany. They also refer to the fact that Mr. Harrison's own paper and every mugwump organ are made the official organ of the Harrisonian Tammany. They resent the fact that the other Democratic organs, including the junior and the German ones, are ignored.

At the meeting of the County Democratic committee next Monday action will be taken in reference to the Harrison movement. The meeting of the Harrison Committee on Organization has been called for tomorrow evening at No. 85 Randolph street by Secretary Burke.

1. Mr. Bieyer now admits that the work cannot be completed until March 1. He explains the delay on the ground that the Edison company has all its boilers in use and that his company is thus handicapped in its work. Evanston Women Discnss Art.

Over fifty ladies were present at the meeting of the World's Fair committee of the Evanston Woman's club held at the home of Mrs. Elizabeth Boynton Harbert, President of the club, No. 316 Judson avenue, Evanston, yesterday afternoon. The subject under discussion was Modern Art and Artists at Home and Abroad." Miss Harris read a paper on art in general. Miss Houston on European, and Mrs.

W. I Wells on American art. Complaint of a Cross-Town Line. The Forty-third street cross-town line of the Chicago City railway company seems to be unusually out of order of late, and this is made worse by the incivility of some of the conductors. Saturday afternoon, at the corner of Cottage Grove avenue and Forty-third street, a number of persons, mostly women, endeavored to boar an east-bound car.

The conductor refused to allow them, giving as an excuse that there was another car right behind. The next car was over a block away. The entire party could do nothing but stand ankle deep in the Enow and slash and await the next car. Conductors on the cable cars south bound refuse to give transfer tickets until south of Twenty-second street, and then often attend to this matter in such an indifferent way that people, particularly women, are unable to get tickets and are compelled to pay a second fare on the croA-town lines.

Mondav. Nov 28. Not to Be Drawn at Epworth Hotel During the World's Fair. A dispatch from Chattanooga, says there some feeling being manifested among the members of the Epworth League in the Southern States over the proposition to receive colored members of the league as guests at the big Epworth Hotel, to be established during the World's Fair at Midway Plaisance and Monroe avenue. It is added that if the movement is pushed it will break up the present friendly relations between the Northern and Southern branches of the Methodist church and the practical union of the leagues attached to each.

Dr. Berry, editor of the Epworth J.ague Herald of this city, says there is nothing in the statement. Altogether there are not probably a dozen colored chapters of the league in all the South, and the very few of their members who are likely to visit the Exposition will i probably seek for first-class hotel accommodations. If, however, any colored brother should ask for accommodations he will not, Dr. Berry says, be refused, for to draw the color, line is opposed to the principles of the Northern Methodist Church.

A certain portion of the hotel will be set apart for them, with accommodations and service as good as those for the whites. There is no colored Epworth League in the South or elsewhere. The M. E. Church South will not admit negroes to membership, and those of that race whe belong to the organization are affiliated without any distinction to the Northern branch of the church.

If Southern Epworth Leaguers "will not stop at the hotel because colored men will not be driven from its doors it is their privilege. But Dr. Berry thinks that there will be no trouble. The leagues under the jurisdictions of the Northern and Southern churches are working harmoniously together, although not united as one body, and the little black cloud talked about is not dense enough to hide the sunshine that illumines both. Pete.

Some of his friends eay that he looks like a cannibal, but French Pete doesn't care as long as he is the champion egg-eater. "Some folks paints pictures. Some writes books. But I eats eggs and cuts hair and shaves," said French Pete. "Eatin' eighty-four eggs in twenty minutes hain't no more to me than drinkin' a cup of coffee." Peter Perche's ample giith testifies to egg-eating capabilities.

He asserts that he is no novice in the business. Two aionths ago he ate twenty-four eggs in five minutes and he thinks that was too easy. Robert Herman, who is somewhat of a sport himself, beard about the alleged capacity for albuminous product and doubted it to the extent of $25. YV. A.

Scfcoenburn. a famous barber and wrestler from Minneapolis, suggested that the contest be held in connection with the big hair cutting and shaving contest. The proposition was accepted. The Barbers Union of Chicago will hold a special meeting the morning of Dec. 26 to arrange about the boiling of the eggs and other details of the contest.

Nearly all arrangements have been completed for the shaving and hair-cutting contest. The joint committee from unions Nob. 70,108, 114, and 116 met last evening at Brick-lRyers' Hall, Monroe and Peoria streets. There will be from sixteen to twenty chairs and the contest will be for speed and efficiency. One hour will be devoted to shavmg, one hour to hair-cutting, among white barbers only.

Women will -have an opportunity to display their skill in dressing ladies' hair and will receive prizes, but will be charged no admittance fee for contesting. Prizes to the amount of $100 in cash and about $200 in various articles will be distributed. A gold medal goes to the champion, while medals of various kinds will be given as smaller prizes. Newspapers ana business firms have contributed several prizes and more are expected. Among those who will strive for the championshiD is Georsre W.

Brookings, who in June, 1890, in San Francisco was decided the Pacific coast champion. On that occasion he shaved, cut the hair, shampooed, singed, and dyed the mustache of a man in thirteen minutes. He will try to excel that record and so will several others. FORGED ORDERS FOR PASSES. APPLICATIONS FOR POLITICAL PLUMS Thomas Edwards, aged 71 years, native of Birmingham.

There was a big stock of applications for positions turned over to the Secretary of the Democratic Executive committee at a meeting yesterday afternoon. The meeting was a secret one and was held in a club-room at the Palmer House. The committee decided to meet the county officers tomorrow afternoon, and it was announced that all aspirants for positions in the Kecorder's office, the Circuit or Superior Court Clerk's office, or the Coroner's must have their applications on file with Secretary Strain before tomorrow noon. Mr. Strain was directed to tabulate the applications in hand and have them ready for consideration tomorrow.

Most of the applications, received are from persons who belong to the ruling race. This one-sided state of affairs was a matter of some discussion at the meeting. It is said that the members of the committee are anxious to receive some applications from German Democrats. The committee does not intend, it is claimed, to dictate the appointments, but is anxious to have the different nationalities represented and also want an equitable distribution of places as to wards. The German-American Democratic club has a list of candidates which it will present.

The committee will not interfere in the selection of the assistants to Jacob Kern. The latter has selected E. S. Bottom for first assistant City Attorney L. J.

Knight, for second, and Charles Morrison for third. It is said George Baker will be retained. John F. O'Malley will be one of the clerks. It is reported that James McHale will retain Deputy Coroners M.

F. Barrett and Charles Griebenow. The Democratic County Commissioners-elect, when they assume control of the county affairs, will make an effort at least to remove Sheriff Gilbert as custodian of the County Building and place the institution in the hands of a Democrat. Thi power they claim belongs to the board. There is considerable patronage in connection with the position of custodian and the Democrats are after it.

They will also insist that certain places which have been filled by itbe Judges or dele- gated to the County Clerk be left to the County Board to filL There is also talk of creating a new position at the County Hospital. It is claimed that that institution should have a resident physician. Jonathan B. Taylor seems to be in a good position to secure the Wardenship of the institution, and ex-Aid. James O'Brien of the Nineteenth Ward is said to have a majority of the Commissioners for him for County Agent.

K. I Manning' Charged with Victimizing Several Railroads. R. L. Manning, formerly Freight Solicitor of the New York and Hudson River railroad at Buffalo, N.

was arrested yesterday by Officers Healy and Bailey on a warrant sworn out by Herbert T. Phelps of the passenger department of the Chicago, Burlington and Quiucy railroad of this city. Manning is charged with obtaining passes from various railroads on forged orders. After obtaining passes, it is claimed, he Jis-posed of them for cash. With his knowledge of the railroad business it was an easy matter for Manning to obtain letter-heads from several companies and then write a request for a pass.

In some instances, it is charged, he even forged telegrams. As the requests apparently came from officers of the roads, he was always successful. He was arrested at the general offices of the Chicago, Milwaukeo and St Paul railroad while in the attempt of procuring a pass on a forged order. MRS. BOISTOJi'S CLAIM DISALLOWED.

The State Auditor of Public Accounts yesterday issued a certificate of authority to do business to the Homestead Loan and Guaranty company of this city. The capital stock is $250,000 and the officers are James S. Norton, 'President; Henry W. Bishop, Vice-President; Augustus H. Burley, Treasurer; Thomas Hudson, Secretary.

Mr. Norton says the company proposes to loan money to people of moderate means for the purpose of building homes. A mortgage for the amount is to be taken and monthly payments made to reduce the principal and interest continually until at the end of ten years the whole amount will be paid. In case of the death of the borrower the company releases the heirs from further obligation and surrenders the mortgage. To do this an amount is added to the monthly payments sufficient to cover the cost of life insurance.

The scheme is a combination of the features of life insurance and loan association. The privilege to do a general banking business is also contained in the certificate. The temporary offices of the company are at No. 85 Dearborn street, The Princess of Wales at a recent garden party served Maggi Bouillon in exquisite eggshell cups. J.

Dreidenger, iuu -1 She Wanted $4,549 for Hoarding, Clothing, and Schooling Ida Helen Eddy. Before Judge Kohlsaat yesterday Mrs. Jeanette A. Boynton presented a claim for $1,549 against the estate of Ira B. Eddy, the hearing of which revealed some interesting testimony.

At one time Mr. Eddy was a banker in Chicago and did business where the Commercial Hotel is now located. He is said to have been worth several million dollars, which he lost on account of his weakness for spiritualism. When he died in August. 1891, his estate consisted of premises Nos.

G06 and COS Fulton street, worth $5,000. By his will Mr. Eddy bequeathed his entire roperty to his adopted daughter, Ida Helen Eddy, who is now 16 years old. When Ida was 18 months of age it is said that she was placed in the care of Mrs. Boynton and remained there until six months ago.

It is boarding, clothing, and schooling Ida that the claim was presented. John H. Whipple, the executor of the estate, produced witnesses who 6wore that Mrs. Boynton was paid every two weeks -for the board of Ida. The girl testified that since the death of her mother, in 1890, she was obliged to work hard at the Boynton home.

She Bcrubbed, washed dishes, and was not allowed to go to school. Mrs. Boynton slapped her and gave her a black eye. She only received one new dress during the last two years. After the evidence was concluded the court said it would disallow the claim.

Under the Btatute the claimant could not recover for wiore than five years, and it was shown that lor three years the girl earned her own living. ITS FACILITIES INCREASED.

CHARLES FROHMAN'S COMEDIANS Next ennday-THE CABROLL8 in "THE PAGO." Detective Nolan Has a Hard Time Landing Two Prisoners. Detective Nolaa of the Central Station had an exciting fight last night at Clark and Washington streets with John Matthews and Kid Egan, pickpockets, whom he had arrested while' they were following their vocation on a North Side cable train. The arrest was made at Monroe and Dearborn streets. The prisoners quietly accompanied the officer until they reached the shadow of the County Building. Here they made a concerted assault upon him, and for a short time it appeared as if Officer Nolan would not only lose his prisoners but would also be considerably worsted in the fight.

They used their fists freely and would have effected their escape had not the officer been on his guard. He knew the character of the two, and when they set upon him he was prepared to give as good as he was called upon to take. A crowd assembled and cheered the officer in his unequal struggle, but they forgot to give any assistance. The fight was brought to a close by the officer drawing his revolver and placing it against Egan's face and at the same time holding Matthews firmly by the coat collar. Both are well known to the police and have been a source of trouble since they were 10 years of age.

There was considerable dissatisfaction at yesterday's meeting between the county officials-elect and the Democratic Executive committee.
