Th 2 Export Coal company has made an as signment to F. C. Krent. president of the P'irst National bank, for the benefit of its creditors. The course was agree! upon at the meeting- of the board of directors held in this city several days ago, and the papers were tiled in the office of the county clerk on Wednes day. The object of the assignment is to place in the hands of the assignee all of the company's propert to be di vided among- its creditors according to their various demand. Mr. Brent has accepted the position of tlie assignee and yesterday filed ids bond. He was seen shortly afterwards and in re sponse to an inquiry stated that the cash value of the company's assets was about $V.i'.),W)'). and that, the liabilities are a little in excess of the assets. He further stated that the company hopes to be able to pay out in full, and that he will endeavor to sell the plant as quickly as possible. He had an offer for the entire plant yesterday which he was compelled to decline. In the mean time, as assignee, he will continue to fill the company's old contracts, and says he has reason to believe that there will be no cessation of business. It is well understood here that the assign ment means the organization of a new company to take the place of the old one. and the business of exporting coal from this port will, in the future, be conducted on a much larger scale than heretc fore. STIMULUS GIVEN BUSINESS. '1 he I 'act That the Election is Over I'rihten All Trade I'rosjnet-. Nkw York. November 1 I. I.rad fctreets says: Interest in tlie election this week naturally tended to restrict the volume of trad;. particularly the south, where it interfered with mercan tile collections. I Jut within a few days the influence of more seasonable weather west and northwest, together with the emphasis with which political questions have apparently been settled, have increased the confidence of many merchants and manufacturers in a pros pect for an increased rate of improve ment in general trade in the near future. Charleston lumbermen report a fair business but in other lines there is no change. Similar conditions prevail at. Memphis, but at Nashville there is more activity in the general lines, nota bly in receipt of California canned goods. The only material effect of the election excitement on business is de layed collections. There is a seasona ble activity in general lines at Atlanta. At Chattanooga and llirmingham, rath er more activity is observed in business circles while collections were fairly sat isfactory. Wholesale and retail bruises at .Jacksonville report trade fairly sat isfactory for the season but at Savan nah there is no special change, except that collections are satisfactory. Au gusta's report is similar, except as to collections, which are slow. Al New Orleans rather more of a cheek to bus iness is ted, due to interest in the elections, but increased activity is ex pected soon. Atdalveston trade is dull in all lines.
