A BIG FAILURE IN GREEN VILLE.
J. T. Nix, with his Two Stores in the Moun
tain City, and Branch Stores in Half
a Dozen Towns, Makes an As
signment.
[Special to the News and Courier.]
GREENVILLE, Nov. 15.-J. T. Nix
made an ;assignment at 10 o'clock to
aight for the benefit of his creditors.
dis liabilities are variously estimated
. t from $75,000 to $125,000, and. nom
inal and actual assets at $75,000.
This failure is the biggest ever made
in upper South Carolina, and has been
the subject of sensational gossip for the
past week. The city has been full of
drummers and members of foreign bus
iness houses all day.
Mr. Nix had two stores at this place
and storesatShelby, N. C., Laurens,
Spartanburg, Greenwood, Easley and
Brunson in Hampton County.
All of his notes fell due to-day, and
it is said that there is in the neighbor
hood of $250,000 due on notes. w. w. P
GREENVILLE GREATLY AGITATED.
GREENVILLE, November 1S.-The
assigumentof J. T. Nix last night cre
ates one of the biggest sensations this
city has known for many years. A brief
secial of his failure was sent to The
News and Courier by your correspon
dent late last night. A conference of
his creditors, representing lawyers,
travelling men and owners of business
houses from the North, South and
West, was held at his office last night,
and the conference lasted until 11
o'clock. All were awaiting some pro
position from Mr. Nix. An assignment
was finally decided upon, and the
creditors went away apparently satis
fied. The agony is at last over, and it
is hard to determine at this time how
the creditors will fare.
The liabilities are variously estimated
at from $75,000 to $125,000, and the
nominal assets are estimated at from
$25,000 to $75,000. Some place the
liabilities as high as $250,000, and it is
not improbable that they will reach
$200,000.
Mr. Nix is a lawyer, and came here
from ISampton County ten years ago.
Some time ago be began buying one
sto:e after another in different parts of
the State until he was finally in pos
session of seven, and was doing the
largest business of any man in upper
South Carolina. Some of these stores
he bought as he did most of hisgoods,
giving his note for payment. He
bought on time and sold for cash, and
revolutionized the mercantile world by
his cheap cash prices. Conservative
merchants shook their heads and said
months ago that he would go under,
that he could not meet his obligation.
His notes-were arranged to fall due on
November 15.
Before the crash come Mr. Nix sold
several of his stores, one in this city and
one in Shelby, N. C., and says that he
utilized the proceeds to pay some o1
his indebtedness.
His embarrassment has been almost
the single topic of conversation here
for a week past.

position ;as presidenit of the bank.
which is not eff'ected by his failure. I1
is impossible to say, until the assignees
report, what his assets are.
The failure was due to short crop
and a failure to collect. Mr. Mallos

was made, turning everything over tc
his creditors and keeping nothing badi
for himself. His failure is much re

FATAL ACCIDENT AT ALCTO-1.
The Shocking Death of D. R. Elkins Pro- l
prietor of the Well-known Dinner
House.
[pecial to the News and Courier.]
COLUMBiA, November 14.-Passen -
ers on the train from Spartanburg a -
riving here this afternoon bring the
news of the accidental killing of Mr.
D. R. Elkins at Alston. It seems that
Mr. Elkins, who has been the proprietor
of the dinner house atAlston since the
war, got on a freight train bound for
Greenville for the purpose of riding
across the river to Peaks, and that by
some accident he fell between the cars
and was mortally injured. Both legs
were completely cut off, and in a short
while death ensued. Mr. Elkins was
a well-known farmer and boarding
house proprietor, and gained some
State reputation by his at2iliation with
the Green back movement some years
ago. lBe leaves a large family and very
little property.
FURTHER PARTICULARS.
PROSPERITY, November 14.-D. R. El
kins, of Alston, was killed at Peaks
Station to-day by a Ireight train, No
18. Mr. Elkins wanted to come over to
Peaks from Alston, and he got in
Conductor Beam's car. The conductor,
being on top of his train, did not know 1
that Mr. Elkins was in the car, and
having no freight for Peaks the train
did not stop, and Mr. Elkins, in trying 1
to jump from the train, missed his
footing and was thrown under the car, 1
and the wheels passed over his thighs, i
severing his legs from his body. He
lived in this condition an hour and a
half.

Most of the exhibits have been re
moved, and nearly all remaining will
have been loaded on the cars and

both respects the fair just. elosed has
far exceeded any of its predecessors.
On Thursday there were over 10,000
paid admission, and the free admis

toward 14,000 or 15,000. The attend
ance the day before was really greater
than at first estimated, and must have
been at least 10,000.
