That portion of the property which has not been disposed of necessitates, too, the payment of burdentaxes. porio, including personal property in Pennsylvania, the library, statuary, paintings and all assets, amounted to about $250,000.
The executors in Pennsylvania filed their account, it was audited by John J. Ridgway, the balance paid over Stephen A. Caldwell, Treasurer of the lome and President of the 'Fidelity Trust Company, and the Pennsylvania executors were given a release. The personal property in New York amounted 10 $106.000, but the account of the executor, Mr. Lawson, has not yet been settled, although it has been filed, the impediment its final auditing being that Mr.
Dougherty, in his determination that not a penny shall go astray, has filed an exception to Mr. Lawson's account, objecting to a payment of $15,000 for counsel fees to William Allen. Butler, a well-known New York lawyer and the genleman who wrote of Miss Flora Me Flimsey, of Madison Square, Who was always complaining of nothing to wear. Mr. Dougherty had protested against the payment of the moncy, and now he objects to the item in the executor's account as being an excessive charge, and the matter is still pending before a New York auditor.
As far as the real estate is concerned, the Broad street mansion, after being held in the market from 1872 until the early part of 1870, was sold to J. Travis Quigg and others for $98,000, blooming forth afterwards as the Forrest. Mansion Garden. $20,000 cash was paid for the property, the balance being held 011 a mortgage. the The purchasers subsequently failed to pay interest on the mortgage and the trustees were compelled to repurchase the property.
It was after the property had been sold Charles J. larrop, who after. wards bought the property at the southwest corner Broad and P'opular streets, offered $95,000 for the Forrest Mansion. The building is now held by the trustees at $100,000.

As Mr. Dougherty was executor at the domicile -1q -he could have administered the entire estate here, but he invited the other executors to administer here also.
Dr, Oakes alone accepted the invitation, the Fidelity Trust Company becoming his surety. Mr. Dougherty thus surrendered his exclusive control of the assets and took joint control with the Fidelity, which was the security and attorney in-fact for Mr. Oakes, POLITICAL POINTS.

Look out for split tickets Tuesday Nobody can tell how many votes there are in that National bag. Let nothing keep a Democrat from the polls on next Tuesday.

Kelly would make a Justice of the Peace to whom we can "point with pride." Vote for him. Milton Barnes was in the city, yesterday, claiming his election sure. Dave Paige, however, will he the next Secretary of State, and Milton can "stop down and out." James Steedman, who the Democrats elected State Senator in this district, has sold out to Kahlo, and made speech in Kahlo's interest Wednesday night. "Chick. amauga Jim" has sold' himself Courier.
Thirty Democrats of Ottawa county who were fooled into joining the National party have joined in a card declaring that they will not be sold to the Republicans, and will vote the Democratic ticket. You doubtless know that when a Democratic party was in. power in the nation there were no such times as the present. There were few bankruptcies--labor was plenty- peace and reigned. Rustore the Democratic party to power if you want prosperity and plenty restored to the land.
The monied power which has control of the Republican party and administration is the advocate of bonds, or an interest bearing currency, to speak; the Democratic party advocates the issuing of greenbacks or treasury notes, which aro non interest bearing. The first costs the industries of the country millions of dollars every year; the latter costs comparatively nothing. This monied power is making strenuous efforts to carry Ohio this fall, and thereby get indorsem*nt. from one of the first states in the Union. It now rests with the honest voters of Ohio to say whether they will give it to them or not, and next Tuesday is the day upon which tho decision is to be ren dered." Think well before you cast your ballot in favor of the Republicans.
Better give it to the Democrats and vote for relief. The Ashland, Press thus speaks truthfully of the candidates on Democratie state ticket: Paige, of Summit county, a man whose perFor Secretary of State we havo David.li. sonal popularity has made him County Treasurer of that county for four years in the face of a large Republican majority. Ho is a staunch Democrat and a man of unquestionable ability and honesty, and is sure to carry tho Republican county of Summit; his home, by a large majority. He is worthy of the votes of the people.
For Supreme Judge we have Alexander F. Hume, of Butler, a man of great logal and judicial ability, and one in every particular well qualified for. the important trust of Supreme Judge.

FORREST'S MONEY. ACTORS WANT TO KNOW ABOUT IT. They Petition Mayor Stokely, as a Member of the Board of Managers of the Forrest Home, to Inquire as to Why It Is Not in Full Blast. From the Times, 47th. A petition is about being presented to Mayor Stokley, as one of the managers exofficio of the Edwin Forrest Home, praying him to set afoot an investigation concern ing the conduct of the institution, that certain evils said to exist may bo done away with.
The petition had its beginning in this way: William Davidge, the wellknown comedian, who being a New Yorker presumably had 110 knowledge of the part taken by the trustees and managers in the management of the trust, except that to be derived from the part taken by Dr. James Lawson. of New York, the only trustee or manager residing in the city where Mr. Davidge lives, himself wrote a petition addressed to Mayor Stokley. and to this he obtained the signatures of a large number of Boston and New York professionals.
A few days ago J. B. Roberts, an old Philadelphia actor, while visit to New York was entrusted with the petition by Mr. Davidge and was requested some to of the obtain as petitioners the names of play people in this city. This Mr.
Roberts has done and the petition will now be presented Mayor Stokley. It ruus as follows: to To the Honorable Mayor of Philadelphia: NEW YORK. Sept. 8, 1879. DEAR friends of the late Edwin matie profession, cannot help viewing with Forrest, as well as members of the draalarm the present financial condition actor of for the bequest left by bl3 that lies fortunate distinguished associates in the the relief profession of the stage, and having solely of at heart the desire to see thy views of the as clearly set down by him in his last will and above-namel distinguished actor fullilled testament, do most earnestly vested in solicit you (as you, con- in tained pursuance in the last will and testament of Mr.

The above request is made with the highest respect of the undersigned: William Davidge, Robert Johnson, Welsh Edwards, Denman Thompson, John McDonough, M. F. Lingham, J.
J. W. H. Carroll, Thorp, W. Shannon, Sol Smith, Frank Evans.
C. Graves, Thomas Chapman, Robert Me Wade and others. The petition is directed to Mayor Stokley. because by a special clause in the will of Edwin Forrest he j- in certain emergencies endowed with power to petition the Orphans' Court to correct auy abuses that may be said to exist. The clause is as follows: ARTICLE 5.
Should there be any failure of the managers to fill any vacancy which may occur in their board for three months, or would they in any respect fail to fulfill their and trust according to the intent of my will the charter of the institution, it is my will that upon the petition of any two or more of said managers, or of the Mayor of the city, the Orphans' Court of Philadelphia county shall make such appointments to fill any VAcancy or vacancies, and all orders and decrees necessary to correct any failure or breach of trust which shall appear to said Court to be required, as in case of any other testamentary trust, that the purposes of this charity may Plesor fail or be abused. EDWIN FORREST'S WILL. Edwin Forrest, dying in December, 1872, left A large estate, real and personal, the bulk of which, under the provisions of his last will and testament, was directed to be held in trust for the benefit of the aged and noddy members of the histrionic profession. With this end in view he provided for the establishment, at his country seat, "Springbrook," near Holmesburg, in the Twentythird ward, of the "Edwin Forrest The plan of the home was outlined in his will, the first clause declaring that "the maid institution shall be for the support and maintenance of actors and actresses decaved by age or disabled by infirmity, who, if natives of thus United States, shall have served at least five years ill the theatrical profession; and if of foreign birth, shall have served in that profession att least ten years, whereof three next previous to the application shall have been in the United States, and who shall, in all things, comply with the laws and regulations of the Home; otherwise, be subject to be discharged by the managers, whose: decision shall be Mr. Forrest appointed as both excoutors and trustees James Oakes, of Boston; James LaWSON, of New York, and Daniel Doughriy, of Philadelphia.
He directed: that 110 Home should be managed by a Board seven in number, to be chosen by the trustees, and including themselves HI long as any of them shall be living, and making the Mayor of Philadelphia a member of the Board duripg his tenure of office. Of the three trustees, but two now living, Mr. Oakes flying resently. There were selected AS besides these and the Nay- or. James I.

Forney. Colonel Forney resigned, his place being filled by Samuel Stokss, dry goods merchant, whose country residence is near the home, and who gives it collsiderable personal attention. Then Mr. Cutle resigned, and this vacancy was the by the election of Charles President of the Fame C'ompany, and he subsequently resigning ole avenunt of ill-health, Thomas Cochran, President of of of of of of of of of the Guarantee Trust and Safe Deposit Company, took: his place.

Little, the Chestnut street dry goods merchant aud a prominent Centennial official, was m.de a member of the board. The present managers are, therefore, i Daniel Dougherty and James Lawson, the TrusMayor Stokley, Samuel Stokes, Cochran, Edwin I. Fitler and Altos R. Little. THE ACTORS' COMPLAINT.
The standing, at least of the Philadelphia gentlemen composing the board, precludes the idea that a farthing of Forrest's money drifting out of the proper channel, even through the leakages that negligence might cause, and the only point that the actors try to make in all seriousness upon the management is that the home should now be well under way and that no one entitled to admittance should be turned from its doors. They also rum their heads against the second article in the will, insisting that in some way it should be done away with. Thearticle reads as follows: The number of inmates in the home shall never excoed the aunual net rontal and revonue of the institution; and after the number of immates therein shall exceod twelve, others admitted shall be only as shall rethe approval of the majority of the inmatus 45 well as of the managers. This, the actors say, will give to seven inmates the power to restrict the benefits of the bequest 19 n' select few. "But;" said the: venerable Eli Price, who drew up Mr.
Forrest's will, when talking about the mutter yesterday, "that is Mr. Forrest's own provision. He wished, in order that the inmates night have nothing to mar their perfect happiness, that no one should be admitual to the Home whose presence would not in every way be desirable to to majority. This restriction, of course, docs not apply until the fumates number twelve Every line of Mr. Forrest's will was written by myself after I had taken down, at his dictation, his idens in roference 10 the Home and the bequests ho wished to make."

Edward B. Rankin, of the Boston Herald, who'acted as judge for Courtney, has published a letter in which he say's: I venture the judgmont that Courtney is the better and more enduring sculler of the two; that despite the roughness of the water he succeeded, whenever he made an effort, in closing with Hanlon and that at the finish he outrowed the Toronto man and lost the race by ceasing to pull at a critical moment when nearing the Had he continued rowing and hauled out into the course instead 1 of resting oll his oars the race was his own.
It seems incredible that a man of. Courtney's intelligence should be so far lost to pride of country and the interest of friends as to lose the race intentionally and until something definite is developed it is only just to hope and bolieve that the race was lost through an error of judgment. The following is an extract from a Montreal dispatch to the Boston Herald: On either side of the courso, at the startand finish, wore Jong lines of booms introduced to koup out boats of all kinds. Severul tugs and barges had got inside and. the line of booms was then pulled down.
Close up to this line Courtney pushed Hanlan with tremendous power and actually carried him so far as to bewilder him. As they neared the finish Hanlan seemed to lose his usual calmness and possession and bofore he was aware of it he was close on to a tug, with Courtney just outsido. Had Courtnoy continued to row and pulled five or six feet he would have had the race won, as Hanlan slacked up'and was rowing leisurely. Heeing this Courtney ceased rowing and at once Hanlan quickenel again and just pulled out of the pocket in season to get clear water and pull over tho lino at an angle of 30 degrees. Courtney was told to pull on and he did so in season to cross the finish a lengtli and a half behind.

TOWN AND COUNTRY LETTERS. (The editors disclaim whether responsibility for the opinions contributors, their articles From Painesville. EDITORS PLAIN DEALER: The present fall, so far hs weather is concerned, soems to be one of the most perfect within the memory of the ollest inhabitant. Fruit, corn, potators and grain of all kinds are being garnered without injury from frost or rain. The light yield of tho potato crop is variously accounted for by the presenco of tho Colorado pest, the August drought and the fact that the peachblow variety has run out in this section, whatever may be the causo.
Tho result will bo a high price for a poor potato. The Greenback party in this section is very noisy. It is composed of the noisy elements of the other parties; but it is not at all probable that they will become a disturbing eleinent in our country or district, and the Republican majority will remain about the same as usual; or a little lower, it is hoped.

Banks. EDITORS PLAIN DEALER national bank law of Secretary did one good service, to put an end to the "red dog," wild cat, suspended and broken bank, local money, that in ante-bellum, specie paying times, so cursed the people, of this country. This was a paper currency nominally, always convertiple into coin at the will of the holder, as our money kings are now demanding the greenback should be. Nominally, I say; but let 11S look at the reality. This convertibility was only at the counter of the particular bank issuing the bills; the banks of Maine sent their bills to Florida, Florida to Maine, Michigan to Texas, and New York and Boston to the uttermost parts of tho country.
In order to get the coin on these bills they had to he carried by stage coach thousands of miles for "redemption," then to find their redeemer ascended, "gone up," and the vaults empty. It was a grand move that put an end to that kind of banking, but the stop was a halting one; it stopped half way. Chase bribed the bankers to give up half the loaf and the bankers bribed the Secretary to let them return the other half. Thus the national banks were spoken into existence, and they were given the whole nation to press upon, with the exclusive privilege of circulating their own notes as currency; they have waxed wonderous strong, have paid their, managers ample salaries and divided ten per cent. annually right along, besides laying up a nice surplus for a wet day.
Their capital is laid away securely in the government vaults, where it draws interest without paying taxes, and they are doing business on money furnished them by the government and their depositors, free of interest, while they charge their customers nine per in spito of restraining state laws. These banks have found themselves into a "Trades Union" and are watching their opportunity to "strike when the iron is hot." Then there are the savings banks, some with a stock foundation and some without; the first are run to make money out of their investments, and the last are run to make money for the managers without taking any risks and with nothing to secure their depositors but tho integrity of the officers. All these institutions derive their power from state laws aud aro established for the ostensible purpose of guarding means of concentrating the savings of the people in safe investments, that they may realize interest upon them until they find it necessary to 1150 them. Besides, then there are private banks operating under general state laws without any special privileges. None of these institutions have now the power of issuing money but the national banks, and even their power of issue is but nominal, for the government issues the money and holds the security for it.
The power of issuing currency to circulate as money is national in its nature and should be exercisod by the nation itself without the intervention of banks. All other bank powers are strictly local in character and are among the constructively reserved rights of the states, and should be controlled by the states. I am not going today to inquire how far a that expensively luxury (3) of the people, the Republican party, have been able to placo in the banks "vested rights" which cannot be legally repealed, but will simply take it for granted that the two acts, the "credit strengthening" act and the Resumption act can be repented; then they can pay off the bonds they are holling for the banks, as they aro now payable in greenbacks and the bank must retire their circulation, while the greenbacks they receive for their bonds will furnish a fund to continue their legitimate bank ring with.

THE TRIAL OF DAVID MULLIN. The Examination of Witnessess Closed -The Evidence all in--Beginning of the Arguments to the Jury. FRIDAY AFTERNOON'S SESSION. On redirect examination by Mr. McKinncy, Mullin said that on the evening of July 20th he met Elwood before he saw him in the saloon.
Mullin was inquired of as to what passed between them then but the prosecution objected. Mr. McKinney stated to the court that he wished to show that Elwood said to that he or they "would have his (Mullin's) braius out bcfore morning." Mr. McKinney said he wished to show that there was a. preconcerted plan to assault Mullin that night.
After some argument the Court held that the examination might proceed and the prosecution excepted to the ruling. Mullin then said that he met Elwood at the corner of Superior and Seneca streets. le (Mullin) was standing there waiting for friends, when he observed three individuals coming toward him -Burke, MeEvoy and Elwood--and another joined them. They stood about thirty feet from witness, attentively looking at him, and he (Mullin) thought he heard the remark that they would have his (Mullin's) brains out before morning. Elwood went up to witness and looked him over.
On re-cross-examination Mullin said he was afraid he might have his brains knocked out; not terribly afraid but afraid. lie knew that Burke and his friends occasionally went into Cunniugham's saloon. Had had some trouble with Burke and with Clancy. He felt insulted at being looked over by Elwood and felt in danger of his safety: was then at a point nearer his home than again that evening. Captain E.
Iobday, a real estate agent, was the next witness. lIe knew the defendant by sight. Ile saw him on Superior strict on the night of the shooting. Mullin was walking cast and a person left four or live others and approached near Mullin. The person who advanced from the group of four or five said, "Come here and we'll knock the -'s brains out before morning." Dr.
Hart, of Jennings avenue, a practicing physician, knew Mullin for ten years. Saw him a day or two after he was released on bail. He was laboring with al severe and trouble with his lungs. The Doctor. said he made an examination and found his lung affected, and that it had been for a considerable length of time.
Witness testified to seeing marks on Mullin's neck. There was nothing to show how the marks were produced; they might have been produced by clutching. 'There was some wound upon the mouth. A reporter of the PLAIN DEALER testified to having seen Mullin in the Central Station immediately after the inquest and sccing marks of bruises about the mouth, the right check and on top of the head. William Lloyd, a reporter of the Herald, corroborated the testimony of Mr.
Klock as to Mullin's encounter with some one in front of the gas when some one made sev. eral lunges at a man with a pistol.

The Bank of Mona, a local branch of the City of Glasgow Bank in the Isle of Man, held from $1,500,000 to $1,750,000 of deposits, about all the spare moncy in the island, and many persons are left destitute.

The liabilities, however, are placed at $60,000. Two and possibly three other shipbuilding firms will fail.
With a view to afford relief to the depositors as soon as possible, a committee of the other Scotch banks is making arrangements to pay 10 shillings on the pound as soon as the banks have ascertained that they will be safe in making an advance to that extent. The Bullionist announces the following as some of the advances made by the City of Glasgow Pank: To James Wright, to William Scott, 10 J.

The San Francisco News Letter says: A few days ago a tramp, who was sparring his devious way along near Reno, conceived brilliant idea for raising the wind. He knew that the Wells-Fargo stage would pass along that road in about half an hour, so he took off his cont, tore his shirt and pockets, rolled in the dust, and finally tied himself, with much difliculty, to a tree. His intention was to tell the stage passengers that he had been foully dealt with by highwaymen, and have a subscription to repair his losses taken up on the spot. The stage, however, took a short cut by a new road that day and didn't go by at all. After waiting until dusk, the tramp tried to take off his bonds, but before he got the first knot loose a grizzly bear came down out of mountain anit picknicked off' the greater part of his left leg.
