up were furnished by ihe Assessors, while the
statement for ISBO was comoiled by the State
Agricultural Bureau Independently. The Com
mittee hope to be able to make their report to

in 1882, and niter serving a short

A Special meeting of the St Patrick's Society
wa* held last evening at the Palmer House. SV.
J.Onataau presld .d. The Committee on Bao
lt quet reported that all the arrangements had
been made for the grand banquet and ball to bo
£ held at the Palmer House St. Patrlck’s-Dny.
The following program of toasts and re
sponses has been arranged: “The Day Wo
t Celebrate,” W. J. Onaban; “Tho President
of the United States.” James L. High; V'lro-
Jand,”Thom s A. Hoyne; “Judiclaryand Bar,”
t W. K. McAllister; “ The Hierarchy and Clergy
of Ireland,” tho Unv. P. W. Ulordan; “Chica
go.” Carter H. Harrison; “ The Land League,”.
1 M. E. Stone, a dancing program of ton num
bers was reported and approved. An excellent
o musical program was reported and accepted.
Guests at the banquet will be expected to be
present at 7:30 p. m., to allow of the other ar
cs rangements being carried out. Two hundred
plates have already been secured. After elect
ing several new members the meeting ad
-3 journed.
The police were considerably excited last
, evening over a report which gained a wide cir
culation that a flreman from New Orleans visit- I
lug this city bad been maltreated in the salo6h'
* of Anthony Connolly, at the corner of Fourth
avenue and Harrison streets, and was lying in a !
, precarious condition at No. 37S State street.
* There is every indication that tho report was
originated by some one desirous of doing Con- j
nellv an illturn. A stevedore, and a former I
member of a New Orleans volunteer fire com- I
, pany, named Ohse. brought up at an early hour j
- Friday morning at his lodgings. No. 378 State I
street, with a slight scalp wound. This was J
dressed by a doctor, and Ohse bus ever since
* been about town us usual. No charges of the I
kind have been preferred against Connelly or I
anyone else, and probably none will be. j
It having been reported chat the delay In the I
negotiations for the vacation of La Salle street j
to create a site for the new Chamber of Com- j
merce was due to a hitch In the proceed.ngs, a
Tribune reporter called yesterday upon Mr.
* J. D. Parker, who has the interests of the j
Board of Trade in charge, and asked for an ex
planation. Mr. Parker said that no trouble of
any kind had occurred. The only question to bo j
decided was how much the side streets were.to
be widened. Tho delay was first caused by the ab
sence of Mr. Beasley, who represented the
Board of Trade, and after he got home It was
found that the agent of the Tracy estate hud
: left tho city. Then Mr. Withrow, attorney for
the Chicago, (lock Island & Paciho Railroad,
went to Springfield and caused a f urthor post
ponement. Tho City Counoil Committee on
' Streets uud Alleys had expressed themselves os
' ready to meet tho parties interested in or op
posed to the proposed improvement utany time J
they might agree upon, and Mr. Parker believed
that they would get together and settle matters (
by next Wednesday afeertfoon at the latest. I
5 • ACADEMY OP FINE ARTS,
s The Art-School of the Academy of Fine Arts )
bus continued quietly in session all winter, and I
bus beeu more crowded with students than ever I
before. The prizes to he awarded at the end of |
tho year, about tho lust of June, will be an- J
pounced next- week. Several of the Trustees
have offered medals and other rewards to be 1
set before meritorious students. Some casts
of architectural moldings and reliefs have )
lately been presented to the School through
Mr. Hill, tho Supervising Architect of J
tho United States Treasury, who
had done a like favor to the Cincinnati An-
Scbool some time ago. There is a recess of one }
week at the end of March, after which the j
studies will go forward as before, with the add!- I
lion of a course of artistic anatomy. The oil {
work, as the students become more advanced,
is very much improved, and me water-color I
class is very popular of late. Tho evening life- j
class will probably be discontinued for tho sea- I
sou at the end of this month.
THERE HAS TO BE A REGISTRY
for the ensuing municipal election, and the
books Should bo in readiness Tuesday. Inso- [
much us this promises to be a heated election, 1
with a heavy vote, all who desire to got their j
names on the books in season and avoid a crowd )
would do# well to call at their polfng-places— I
tho list was published in Saturday’s Tribune—
and see that their names ore down. The judges ]
should call.ut the City Clerk’s office Monday I
morning anti get their certificates of election 1
by the Council, and then bo over to tho County j

WEST TOWN COLLECTIONS. J
West-Town-Collector Schlllo makes a splendid {
showing—tho beat on record—of his work l« col- j
lectlng cho State, city, county, park, and boule- I
vartl taxes for 165 J, and itu*eaccts credit on tho {
Republican party, who elected him, and upon {
himself. j
Assessor Amick, who has made so fair an
assessment,—one that has given poor men j
greater satisfaction than any other,—is also to J
be credited with a share of the good work. Ho I
has acted in conjunction with Mr, Scbillo, and
both have given valuable assistance to one I
another i n assessing and collecting the t axes. 1
Collector Scbillo shows that out of 8,400 per
sons on tho personal property tax-list
there are but -1,000 delinquent. The 1
warrant- for personal property tax was I
$265,212. of which £249,0W has been collected up j
to date.—s3,ooo more than wa« collected last I
year, or S 3 per cent collected, leaving only 6 and I
a traction per cent uncollected. The dclln- 1
quents include bankrupts, absentees, and dead
people. Last year the collections amounted to
8916-100 per cent, Tho Increase this year Is I
therefore 4 per cent. The total ot the real- 1
estate warrant was $1,750,093 this year, and £2,-
111,000 last year. Tho total collections to date j
amount to £292,000, and last year they were
£313,3*4. Last year’s percentage was 34 84-100, }
and thus tar this year It is 16 percent, showing
114-100 increase over last year’s percentage. I
And still tho Collector expects to get ines much J
money as his predecessor did last year.
It may be well to state that last year many
persons look ndvaatafm of the scrip In clrcula- I
tion to pay their taxes with, and thus obtain a J
discount. Tho winter weather has also been so I
severe that collecting has been attended with J
much hard work. The Republicans of the West I
Town have great reason to feel proud tho
men they put into the Assessor’s and Collector’s 1
offices lust spring. I

THE INTERNATIONAL BANK
COLLECTOR RAXIVEV TO INVESTIGATE ITS DE-
1»0S1T ACCOUNT.
A Uttio stir was created In financial circles
to yesterday by the announcement that tho Tutor
in'l national Bank had withdrawn from tho Clear
?s I ing-House. Inquiry proved that such was tho
£ fact, and that the Institution will hereafter do
>d I its clearing through tho Commercial National.
10 Tho officers of the bank, when questioned about
Ic } their reasons for this action, stated that it was
to 1 a conclusion which they bud arrived at
i- ( after due cousldorudon, and they believed It to
:o be a step taken for tbe best Interests of tho
»f I bank. Tho institution was perfectly solvent,
lt 1 and was able to pay 100 cents on tho dollar at
I any moment to depositors and to stockholders.
*1 I Mr, Eamcs.of tho Commercial National Bank,
n I also expressed the same belief in the excellent
5t condition of tho bank, tho capital of which It Is
rt I proposed to Increase to £1,000,000.
o U having been reported that tho withdrawal
t. was duo to u pending investigation by tho out
a ccrs of tbo Internal Revenue, a reporter called
n on
w I COLLECTOR HARVEY
d for the purpose of ascertaining what truth if
ly any there was in this statement. Mr. Harvey
0 I said that he had noticed tho statement of tho
»r nllalrs of tho bank published In
hist Sunday’s Tribune,— a statement made
_ m connection with its then difficulty with
» tbe Clearing-House. That statement showed
'* that tho deposits at that date Were £1,800,000, but
by the sworn statement made to him for tho six
_ J months ending November, iSSJ, tho November
. deposits were £066,00i). Mr. Harvey suited that
I ho was unable to reconcile in his mind the im
■ 1 mens© discrepancy between $500,000 in Novcm
ber and nearly $2,000,000 in March. As
. sumlng that tho report to tho Clear
»• I jpg-House was correct, the banks
._ I statement appeared too low. He sent for Mr.
3 Lowenthal, briefly stated tho facts to him, and
•• said that he would have to make uticxamiuu tion.
Mr. Lowenthal asked that It might be deferred
,t for tho present for reasons given below, and tho
Collector assented. The examination, however,
« will begin Monday or Tuesday.
No criminal charges have been preferred
a against tbo bank, and none will bo un
less tho examination should warrant
:** it. By the law a tax of one
half of 1 per cent Is Imposed on all deposits In
National and other banks, and seral-aunually
t the bank olltcers are required to make-u . sworn
- I statement to the Collector of Internal Revenue •
'f I of tho monthly average of their deposits. Incase
n ‘ these statements, which are required to bo sworn
h to: are false, the' offenders arc liable to puulsh
a ment by fine uud imprisonment,
u Collector Harvey staled that if tho deposits in
3 1 November were Incorrectly reported, and were
- I as large as those reported for the 3d of March,
r ( the amount of money of which tho Government
- had been defrauded was quite large—£7,ooo or so.
r J Tho case wqs a very serious one, iuid demanded
e j prompt and thorough investigation,
s mil lowenthal
J was informed of tho statements made by tho
; Collector of Internal Revenue, and asked what,
r if anything, be desired to suyon tho subject.
1 He stated that Collector Harvey had spoken to
1 him generally upou tho subject, without specl
t I fylng any thing,—bad expressed a desire to have
- ( au examination, and that bo (Mr. Lowenthal)
i hart asked it to be put over until tho pres
. ent week, inasmuch ns the bank
e was being bothered about its relations
- with tho Clearing-House, and really bad not the
f time at that moment to devote to'tho matter.
3 I That the discrepancy between tho sworn state
a mentmauo to tho Collector for tbo six months
- ending November 1886, and tho Clearing-House
b return for the 3d of March was proof that tbo
i I November statement was incorrect, Mr.
I Lowenthal denied. In tho Hrst place their busl
: I ness bad increased enormously since November ,
I, j In the next place, those items which appear in.
a Clearing-House account, but which a bank is
i authorized to deduct when it makes its report
3 I to the Government, were very large. These are
certified checks. Cashiers’ cheeks, mar
ts J gin deposits,—which are In tho nature of
1 special deposits, and which, .during an
3 I cxicting wheat or pork deal, are very
large, collections, and Clearing-House
J checks. If, for instance, me bank buys foreign
a 1 exchange for a large amount It gives its check
? on its own Cashier. This figures in (he Clearing
: f House account, but not in tho account with tho
r Government. If a bank in New York scuds on
I collections amounting to £300,000 or £400,000,
1 thev are collected one day and remitted the
> next. They appear in the Clcarlng
r j House account, but are not returned to
, i tho General Government. So Mr. Lowenthal
J believed that these items and the Increase of
P business between November and March fully
[ I accounted forithcP apparent difference between
. tho sum of £556,000. the average deposits of No
. I vember and of £1.800.006, the deposits on the 3d
\ I of March. It was barcty possible that ther^
’ j might be a clerical error in tho statement made
i 1 to the Collector of Internal Revenue, such state-
J ments, though sworn to by the President. Cnsh
! ier. and three of the Directors, being prepared of
I course by a clerk, who simply took tho dally
1 averages, divided them by tho number of busi
ness days in the month, and thus arrived at the
monthly average.

i 3 j Fork, made a dash into the Carr’s Fork coun

i- and the moonshiners and their friends gath
£ ered and proposed to give the foe battle.
•, They secured an old cannon left by John
I Brown in his raid of’ol, loaded it to tlie
. I muzzle with rusty nails and broken pot
t metal. They manned the piece, and when
“ tne Marshal and his forces came near
v enough, fired, hut aimed too high, and the
n load passed over them. Tlie noise of the ex
o I plosion threw the officers imo disorder; but
0 [ they quickly rallied, and, after a volley from
u their carbines, charged uu the pass with
■ drawn pistols. Tlie moonshiners fired a few
scattering shots; but the steady firing of- the
“ Marshal’s party drove them out of their am-.
, bush, and they fled across tlie ridge and down
1 the creek toward Breathitt County. It is
i. supposed that several of the moonshiners
1 were wounded or killed, as blo'od-siains were
found on the ground tor some distance. Tho
I Marshal's party escaped without injury, mid,
a 1 after cautunng the hill, they spiked thecau

I a little lower it would have been certain

SHOT IUS .JVIFE’S PARAMOUR.
J Sptctat .Diipatck to The Chicago Tribune.
Oconomowoc, Wis., March 12.—Quite a
sensation was caused in the little village of
1 Brookfield Junction, fifteen miles east of this
place, by the shooting of George Daubner, a
prominent politician, by H. Showennan. It
seems this was tho result of a seven years’
feud between the parties, brought about by
the persistent attention and supposed crimin
al intimacy between Sliowenuan's wife and
Daubner. Investigations by your corre
spondent show that the case was uot at all
I one-sided. Showetman’s wife was more to
I blame than Daubner. Mrs. Showennan lias '
not had the best of reputations. Site has
served a term in jail for petty offenses
while tier husband was Postmaster. Dan- '
I Infer is a well-known politician of Wauke
gan County. He ran for Sheriff in 1873. 1
He lias been in Madison most of tlie time i
this year, where he'ls said to nave bagged i
quantities of booty from members of the
Legislature. On the evening of March IB
Daiibner, not knowing of the presence of
Sliowerman, entered the premises of tlie iat- .
ler with the intention of seeing his (S.’s)
wife. Mr. Sliowerman immediately went
into a back room, loaded a shotgun heavily ’
with line shot, passed out into tlie yard, and ■
when Daubner left the house discharged the
contents into him.-"Daubner is still alive,
but is unable to move. Public opinion favors.
Mr. Showerman’s action. (

THE LAST OF HIS RACE.
A Strange, Eventful History—A Bloody
Vendetta.
Little Ruck (Ark.) Gazette.
A Gazette representative tvos'at the Union
jj Depot yesterday when the day train from
Texas came in, and was informed that an
officer was on board who had with him a
- prisoner whose history was quite remarkable.
After a short searcli the men were found in
a forward car. The prisoner was an old roan,
ai who sat very quietly in his seat, and did not
seem to have much interest in the world or
the developmentof Arkansas. He was hand
cuffed, and did not care to talk. From the
officer, however, and himself, the events of
0 his strange history were drawn forth, and,
having been patched up, made the following:
The old man’s name is Datilgreen, and liq
lived before the War iu the northern part of
I, Tennessee. His home was a pleasant one,
and with his wife and two sons he lived very
happily on his farm until a unarrel arose
between neighbors. The difficulty was
patched, but one of the sons—both of whom
. had grown to man’s estate—conceived that
he had been wronged, and one day. while lie
’’ mid ids brother were passing, along the road
e in a wagon, they came up with five men,
3 their neighbors, and the quarrel broke out
1 afresh. The young men were courageous
’ and would not be intimidated by their op-,
, poiicuts. Hot words led to blows, and the
h live young men, pulling pistols, tired upon
3 the two Dahlgreen boys and killed them,
i- They ran away, and fearing the vengeance
. of old man Dahlgreen, for lie was even then
’’ considered quite an old man, disappeared
from tlie community. Of course Dahlgreen
mid his wife were nearly distracted at the
u death of their “ boys,” of whom they were
e very proud, and Mrs. Dahlgreen never re
covered from the blow, hut about the time
'** tlie War broko out died, and the husband was
1 left to lament the separation of his family,
r lie conceived Uie idea that nothing was
a left in this life for him, except to obtain
- vengeance on the men who had robbed him
t of his sons. He devoted the remainder of
i Ids life to tins purpose. lie began sys
i tematically to search for the five men, whose
,* names were G’ridley. Black, Hewitt, Meyers,
j mid a man eallpd “Black Tom,” but whose
- true name was Lurday, and one after
i another was met and killed. He had no
5 scruples, no conscience. His sole object
5 was to put tho viilians who bad made life
t no object to him out of the way. He took no
i interest in tho War. It mattered not whether
, the North or South were victors, lie shot
• Meyers and Lurday In Tennessee, and es
caped the officers who were set upon Ins
, track. The old man disappeared from ids
i county, ami no traces of him were heard for
several years. The man Gridley died of
i pneumonia hi Cincinnati, and Black is serv
i ing out a term in the State Penitentiary at
Columbus, 0., for burglary,
s Tile last of these men, Hewitt, was slowly
but surely tracked by Dahlgreen to Colorado,
and it was there in a little town on the
■ frontier of the State, at Coyote, lie -came up
, with him and shot him in cold blood, after
lie had thrown up ids hands mid asked for
mercy. The little community was terribly
excited about the murder, mid started officers
on the track of Dahlgreen, who threw them
off tlie scent. Ko more was heard of him
i until last month, when information was re
ceived that lie was in Houston, Tex„ and
’ there lie was arrested. ■
I As the prisoner concluded what he had to
say, he remarked:
“I am satisfied; have had my revenge,
and Ido nut care what becomes of me. I
have nothing more to livtj for, and I would
rather hang than not have ‘fixed’ the men
who killed my boys.”
About this time the train moved off, and
the interview closed.

nicely settled in our new bank building and bad
sufficient use of the fire and burglar proof ‘‘out
fit’' you furnished us to feel warranted In ex
pressing to you our entire satisfaction with the
manner In which you completed the contract
made through your Chicago bouse. Ac the time
our Institution was.organizcd we visited Chicago
and canvassed the safe question thoroughly and
practically for several days. The result was
an order for a complete banker’s “outfit" of
Hall's manufacture, reserving the privilege of
going or sending to your factory at any time
during the construction of the safes for the
purpose of satisfying ourselves as to the truth
or falsity of certain statements regarding the
alleged Impracticability and asserted mechanical
impossibilities of your many improvements over
the “antiquated” class of goods usually ex
hibited. Wo availed ourselves of the reserva
tion (which we admit was freely granted), per
sonally visited your factory, and were uot only
satisfied, by thorough tests and experiments, ,
that we were getting absolute protection against
lire and burglars, but we were astounded at the 1
immensity of your works. And the large num- I
ber of bankers' safes in all stages of completion
was sufficient assurance that you build just what :
you agree to, and that there are many others I
who coincide with our opinion; Wo are told by ,
bank men that we have the best and most com- i
pletc outfit in the State outside of tho larger j
cities. Ilcspectfully, C. B; Salmon,
