renewed confidence in the situation. The meeting had no definite purpose i in view. There wa3 a feeling that inasmuch as the appraisement committee had said the stock was worth 86 cents, then 86 cents it should be whether the bank resumed business or its affairs wound up by a receiver. At least so a majority seemed to feel, and when this majority voted to decline the Columbia offer, it felt dead certain that it was doing exactly the right thing. The business men in the minority, however, at that moment felt that the value of their stock had suddenly depreciated to uncertain 'figures, and some made bona fide offers to sell at 50 cents. The non-stockholding depositors were thoroughly discouraged. , After Friday it looked as if the receivership was now a certainty, and so it would have been had not certain outsiders taken- a hand. Messrs. W. W. T ??,!? n XT A'T ooro and S M Mfl Neel began to work together, and they arranged a plan whereby they would put in new capital, re-organize under the old charter and re-open the bank. None of the gentlemen had previously been, connected with the Loan " and Savings bank except as depositors. They made proposals to the stockholdA|s whereby they agreed to consider ^roe stock of the bank as worth the appraised value, and providing that stockholders could either subscribe the difference between that and par or sell and step out. This proposition was, after all, the most favorable that had been suggested, and It was accepted. At a meeting of stockholders last Monday night, the new arrangement was formally agreed to, and directors were elected as follows: o. M. McNeel, G. H. O'Leary, W. W. Lewis, W. B. Wylie, C. E. Spencer. Immediately after the adjournment of the meeting of the stockholders, the directors held a meeting and elected Mr. McNeel president, Mr. O'Leary vice president, and Mr. W. P. Harrison cashier. It was resolved that the bank be reopened at the earliest possible moment, and Mr. McNeel left yesterday morning for the purpose of getting the mon, ey with which to pay all depositors in full as rapidly as they can draw their checks. It is the outside impression that there will be but little disposition on the part of depositors to withdraw their deposits except where they stand immediately in need of the money; but the directorate will not presume on anything of the kind. The money will be at hand and depositors may take it or leave it alone as they like. YESTERDAY PRIMARY. The battle of the ballots throughout 4 York county yesterday made up one of the hardest fought contests that has taken place In this county for many years. There were some strong men in the race, there was some hard work done, there was much independent voting, and the closeness of the result in some instances is almost like the splitting of hairs. Although The Enquirer made the usual elaborate arrangements to which it has been accustomed for years to get quick and accurate returns, the machinery did not work quite so smoothly as usual and it was not until about 6 o'clock, this, Wednesday morning, that the last figures were received. The reports commenced coming in yesterday afternoon within an hour after the closing of the polls. The result at Tirzah came in first. Then followed Newport shortly afterward, and next Sharon, Bullock's Creek, Clark's Fork, Smyrna, Ebenezer, Biairsvine ana Coates' Tavern, all by telephone. Shortly before 9 Bethany was received by special messenger and later Forest Hill, Bethel, Antloch and McConnellsville by the same means. The The other boxes followed in succession as rapidly as the count was completed, until by 12 o'clock all the returns of the county, except the state vote at Bullock's Creek, and the two big boxes at Yorkville and Rock Hill, had been tabulated. Then came a long wait, The count at Yorkville was not completed until 2 o'clock. Within 15 minutes afterward the figures were in the tabulated statement. All the columns had been added "* up and there remained only the vote of Rock Hill to make the work complete. Word came that Rock Hill would be through by 2 o'clock, then by 3, and then by 4. Mr. H. H. Beard had kindly kept the telegraph office open all night until advised that his services would no longer be required; but within a short time after he left something got wrong with the telephone wires. They were grounded, crossed or something. Anyhow the obliging operators here, Messrs. Wallace and Williams, wrestled for an hour or more in a vain effort to re-establish connection, and finally there was nothing for it except to suspend further effort with the result of several of the contests still hanging in doubt on account of the uncertain effect of the big box at Rock Hill. At last at about 6 o'clock this morning, connection was re-established and Mr. W. J. Caveny succeeded in getting through to us the vote at Rock Hill. Up to that time in several instances it was anybody's race; but quickly made additions now tell the story as it will stand. The nominees for the house of representatives are W. B. de Loach, J. E. , Beamguard, W. N. Elder, James R f Haile. John R. Logan Is renominated foi sheriff. 1 John E. Carroll gets the nomlnatior for county superintendent of education 1 L. W. Louthian is nominated as coroner. W. B. Williams is recommended as auditor. W. B. Wylie and J. A. Tate will rur " wona fnr Alarlr ftf tVlP POUrt. <x ocwuitu iaw wt v*v?? w. ?... John F. Gordon and T. G. Culp will i run a second race for county supervisor. It appears that Senator Tillman was scratched by about 800 voters. Mr. McSweeney carries the county over Hoyt by a small plurality. Returns from ten boxes in Cherokee, give Finley 1,000 and Strait, 250. All but three boxes in Lancaster, give Strait 1,450 and Finley 500. Five boxes in Chesterfield give Finley 268 and Strait, 223. Chester county complete, gives Finley 971 and Strait 814. Mr. Finley said this morning at 1 o'clock that he would probably defeat Strait by a majority of between 2,500 and 3,500. All but three boxes in Lancaster county gave Hough 1?000; Henry 500, and McDow 450. Henry carried Chester county and also Fairfield and Cherokee. Mr. McDow said last night that he was satisfied that Henry was elected by a good majority, and that there will be no second race The statement, however, was based upon personal judgment, rather than actual knowledge of facts. MAGISTRATE RACE. An interesting feature of yesterday's primary in York township, was the magisterial race. There were seven candidates, all of whom, with their friends, worked hard for the nomination. The result wa3 as follows: John A. Barron 98 J, Martin Brian 48 D. C. Clark 84 W T> Hnhho 37 Wm. C. McLure 43 W. S. Peters 86 C. H. Sandifer 176 No one of the foregoing having received a majority of the votes cast, there will be a second race between the two highest. These are John A. Barron and C. H. Sandifer. liOCAL LACONICS. Oldest Rock Hill House Burned. The oldest house in Rock Hill, owned by the White family, was burned last Wednesday night. First Bale at Sharon.

Excursion to Cliff. Quite a crowd from all points along the C. & N. W., railroad went on the excursion to the Cliffs last Friday. The day was a miserable one for the pleasure-seekers, on account of a very heavy rain in the afternoon, the intense heat, etc. Sutro Mill Organizes. The Sutro Cotton Mill company was duly organized last Saturday, with T B. McClain, J. S. Brice and Wm. H Lyles at directors. Mr.- McClain was elected as president and treasurer, and Mr. Walton S. Neil as secretary. The affairs of the mill are progressing satisfactorily. The town authorities had to remove a dead mule from the waterworks branch, some three-quarters of a mile above the reservoir, one day last week, The animal had been in the branch foi several days. It was removed, however, the very night it was reported. It has been suggested several- times thai the town should own the watershed from which the public* water supply comes. The suggestion is respectfully repeated. The Chapel Picnic. The educational mass meeting at King's Mountain chapel, last Friday was largely attended, not only by people from the immediate neighborhood; but by many from quite a distance. It is estimated that the crowd numbered between 400 and 500 people. The educational address of the occasion was delivered by Prof. John G. Clinkscales of Wofford college. It was entertaining, instructive and very much enjoyed. Rev. J. M. Booth and Rev. J. M Steadman were present and did whal they could to contribute to the entertainment and comfort of the people The educational exercises lasted frorr 11 to 1 o'clock. Then came a big picnic dinner that was thoroughly enjoyed After dinner social pleasures and base ball were the rule until a late hour ir the afternoon, when the crowd broke up. The occasion was quite a success. Some Fine Fruit. Mr. John W. Simril, of Concord, complimented The Enquirer last Saturday with a basket of peaches anc I grapes. The peaches were oi the olc 1 fashioned Indian free-stone variety and as large as full sized lemons. Thej were sweet and luscious?altogethei the finest we have seen this season Mr. Simril said that he had 14 trees, al well loaded; but they are almost don< now. Had he tried he could easily hav< . disposed of his crop for $1 a bushel but he didn't. Mrs. Simril preserved as many as she cared to, and the balanc* were shared with the neighbors. Thf trees on which the peaches grew hav< ( been mentioned before. Mr. Simril pu them out some ten or twelve years ag< from seeds obtained in Mecklenbur* county, and since then numerous peo pie have procured seeds from him, unti this particular variety has been prett: , well propagated. THE CHINESE SITUATION. European Powers Are In Doubt as to What r They Should Do. New York Sun, Monday. The continued absence of reliable 1 news or information of any kind re. garding the situation in China, is very significant, and goes to confirm the be" lief that there is a serious divergence of views among the powers. The French government is taking steps 5 that point clearly to a desire on its part to have a free hand, either to cooperate with other powers or to act 1 alone. The reason for this is not far n w/v *-nlrl?#? A f Arm {n IU seen.. xlivculo aic lamiig a. .u.... northwest Africa that may at any mo1 ment caltfor action on the part of the . French government. In the face of the possibility of trouble with Morocco, involving perhaps, complications with ; England, it would be in the highest degree inconvenient for large bodies of French troops to be working in co-oper ration with British troops in China. France, therefore, is assuming an attitude of reserve and waiting on events. The sudden rescinding by the Belgian government of the decision to 1 send a contingent to China is a symp, ton of the hidden currents running un| der the surface of European diplomacy at this moment. So is the prolonged ' interview between the German emperor and the Prince of Wales at Homburg, while Lord Salisbury remains on the German side of the Franco-Ger. man frontier in the Vosges. The change of policy in Italy with the accession of King Victor Emmanuel to the throne, has also to be taken into account, tending as it does to a drawing closer together of the continental European powers in the groups into which they are divided, and to the carrying on of relations between the groups through the powers exercising the more active or predominating influence in them. It has been rumored that some time ago overtures were made by Russia i and France to England, for a partition of China, England being offered the Yangtse valley, the others appropria, ting the northern and southern provinces and that Engiand refused. What truth there may be in this it is impossible to say, and the only thing that lends color to it is the saying attributed to the German Emperor some three months ago, that Germany was not going to be ignored in any settle, ment of the Chinese question. The probability is that the rumor was put about as a straw to test'the direction of the political currents. Be that as it may, for more than two months before the murder of Baron Ketteler, in Pekln, tnere were mysterious rumors going about that an explosion was to be looked for in China at any moment, with hints that the agitations going on among the Chinese were fomented by foreign agents. The basis of these reports was probably the fact that asylum had been given to well-known Chinese political agitators on British territory and that one or two of them had received onen protection. This alone, would be sufficient to alarm the reactionary party in China and cause it to countenance the formation of societies and bands having for obiect the expulsion of all foreigners from China, and the extermination of those Chinese who. bv reason of their change of religion. were more or less under the political protection of the countries whose missionaries had converted them. The presort suspense is undoubtedly due to the fact that the contingents 1 end warshins of the various powers 1 now on their wav out to China, have not vet arrived. When thev have, we mav exnect to see matters taking a decided turn. | The last news concerning the military situation leads to the expectation i of more 'fighting in the neighborhood of Pekin. A division. 10.000 strong, of Herman drilled troops under Yuan . Shih TCai. governor of Shantung, is re[ ported to he on the march to the capi[ tal, and the Japanese cavalry sent in pursuit of the Imperial party has been | obliged to fall back before a large body of Chinese horse. Other Chinese troops are reported coming from the west. The latest official information at Washington from Pekin is only down i to Sunday, the 19th. i AT THE CHURCHES. I 1 > BAPTIST. REV. J. B.
