NO. 33; ' ' ' 0 ' v i i 1 I Y 1 ' H lT -JJb JJL J-L INFANTA EULAL1E HONORED 'OaHerArriralin Kew Tori ana it the 1 Royal Salates Fired from Our Testis in Her Honor The Spanittk stcaro-er Beria Maria CThrifttma, having on xmrd the Infanta EuJali., her husband and Prince An toine D'Orleans and tho nr.embers of their party arrived at New York late Thursday afternoon. The Infanta'.; arrival wan somewiiat of a surprise, as she was not expected until Friday morning. This did not in tor fere with the arrange ments far the reception of the quoejL repent of Spain. At an early hour the Do! jjhin passed mt to the Hook and was followed shortly afterwards by the .Spanish wtr ibij Infanta Isabel. At 9:30 o'clock the Spanish vessels weighed anchor and passing in were preceded by the Dol phin, -which had been awaiting their nxrvementt; on the governments docks. The )olp).'n steamed ahead, leading the way up tkrough the ship channel, saluting "with her bow chaser. Ah the boitt bearing the infanta ap proached the warship the yards wore maimed and ns she went on board a salute., of twenty-ono guns was fared. V lmi :the guns' of the warship had ccasod their booining the cannon at Fort Hamilton took up the strain and nswi-red the salute gun for gun. Ujon the cessation of the firing the crew.-of the Infanta Isabel gave three cheers for their royal visitor. At 11 :10 o'clock Infanta Isabel hove her anchor and .head ml up the bay and with her royal passengers proceeded for Jersey City. At Jersey City the Infanta Eulalie and her party disembarked from the ...warship Infanta Isabel at 1.05 o'clock jp. in. Salutes were exchanged be Twoentho Spanish vessel and the Dol phin while the party were being landed. HEK KECErTION IN WASIIINOTOX. The royal train bearing Infanta Eulalie and suite arrived in Washing ton at 8:40 o'clock Friday. An immense crowd gathered in tho vicin ity of the Pennsylvania station more than an hour before the train arrived. The attaches of the Spanish legation were the jo as early as 7 o'clock, as were representatives of nearly all the foreign governments. Secretary Qaincy came shortly alter the arrival of the cavalry-in Mr. Ores ham's carriage, followed almost in stantly by a handsome barouchti drawn ly four mag uiti cent bay horses. It was President Cleveland's carriage sent for tho use of the princess, and the president's coachman and a footman were on the box. A number of other officials were present as representatives of the president. The special train tetuned into tho station at 8:40 o'clock, exactly on time. Secretary ! Gresham, the stnte department officials and the party from the Spanish lega tion walked nearer to tho tracks as the train came to a standstill. The prin cess was the first to alight. She was Assisted from the train by Commander Da is. The greetings over. Secretary Gre eham offered his arm to the princess and, followed by the infanta and other railroad officials, they walked down the carpeted, plat form to tho carriage. Outside the crowd was something enormous and the princess looked pleased as he saw the throng that had 'gathered to receive her. She chatted gnyly in Huglish to Mr. Gresham all the while. The infanta, Prince An toiue, Secretary Gresham and Minister Murugua entered the president's car riage. The cavalrymen saluted crul the procession began to move up Penn . oylvania avenue towards the Arlington. The ride up Pennsylvania avenue was devoid of any special incident. The apartments -occupied by the prin cess and her suite at the Arlington are historic. They are annexed to the hotel, but form n separate house. It was the old residence of Charles Sum ner and is built of stones throughout. The sides of the square bounding the park are innumerable houses, few less historic than that in which the infanta now rests. The royal apartments con tain seven sleeping rooms, three par lors and a private dining room with four Wd rooms on an upper; floor for the use of the servants. CALi.iNo rroN THE TRESinEirr. A "day perfect in every respect greet ed the royal party Saturday morning. The princess enjoyed a good night's rest, and at 0 :H0 o'clock she got up and began to prepare for an official call upon the president and Mrs. Cleve land, until .'which time she was not of ficially known to be in the city. Five minutts before 11 o'clock, twohand . frome carriages drove up to the Sumner annex of the Arlington hotel and the royal party - proceeded to the car riages. As soon as the carriages hturted towards tint white house, the crowd which ..had' gathered, broke and rau through 'the park in that di rection to witness the arrival of the distinguished" party. As the carriage of the infanta came to a standstill un der the broad, high portico, three wore or more people gathered there to catch a sight of the princess. The party alighted and proceeded through tho main doorway into the corridor of the private part of the mansion. In the blue room the president and Mrs. Cleveland stood ready to receive their royal visitors. The blue room was tastefully, though not lavishly, deco rated. The infanta was presented by the Spanish minister and the greetings were very pleasant, and had hardly a tinge of formality about them. Mrs. Cleveland and the infanta chatted briskly in English during part of the brief visit, while at times the conver sion was general. At fifteen min- utes ru5t 11 o'clock the infanta made her iMiieu, followed by the others. ' CXIXtJIG ON THE PBEfCESS. Ixwicheon was hardly over, when the "princess besran to receive callers. The fir, calWn of the day, after the Span- ihb. xniEiater, were Mr. and .Mrs. Curry, Ixween whom and the princess an in timate ticquaintance w formel when Mr. 'Curry was United States minister at Madrid. It was generally believed that the president would return the call made upon him m the t fternoon, and quite a crowd gathered about the building to see the president when he came. In this, however, thev were dis appointed. Promptly p.t 3 o'elock, though, two carriages drove up an Mrs. Cleveland, accompanied by Col onel John M Wilson, Mrs; Carlisle, Mrs. Bissell, ' Mifs Herbert and Mrs. Smith enter el the hotel, where they remained a few minutes. Mr. Cleve land did not return the call of the princess. In this connection, the pre cedent during his former adminis tration, is remembered. When Queen Kapiolanie was here and visited the president he did just as he did on this occasion. After the queen had re turned to her appartment, Mrs. Cleve land, accompanied by Colonel Wilson, returned liie call ana witn tnat tne formalities ended. BRUNSWICK BANKS FAIL. The President -of One of Them Com mits Suicide. Mr. Max Ullman, the president of the Oglethorpe National bank, at Brunswick, (la., suicided Thursday morning by shooting himself in the head. A few minutes after nine o'clock President Ullman and Mr. WT. E. Bur- bafre. president of the First National bank, were engaged in earnest conver sation about tho condition of the two banka, Mr. Burbasre beincr a director and stockholder in the Oglethorpe, while Ullman had like relations with the First. Mr. Ullman, stating that ho wished to step in the back room for a moment, did so, closing the door be hind him. In an instant, the report of a pistol was heard and the bank offi cials present, rushing in, found their former president with a pistol in his hand and a bullet hole in his head. The doors of the bank were closed and payment of checks suspended, and the bank examiner wired to come and take charge of the institution. A meeting of the board 'of directors of the First National bank was imme diately called by President Burbage, and, after a brief consultation, it was decided to suspend business and put the bank in the hands of the United States bank examiner, and he at once telegraphed to that effect. This action was taken by the First National be cause of the relations of the two banks and the certainty of a run. The First National made a statement Wednesday showing only 7,000 on hand. The Oglethorpe made a state ment on Tuesday showing only 1,000 in oash. . This caused a run, and, in fact, the condition of the two institu tions had been rumored on the streets for several weeks, and many of their heaviest depositors had been gradually Withdrawing their money. This, cou pled with the closeness of the money market and the inability to get assist ance from Now lork or elsewhere, ren dered the closing of the two Vanks necessary. The county treasurer had sixteen thousand on deposit: with the Ogle thorpe, and it is said that the inability of President Ullman to give County Treasurer Lamb personal security was one of the main causes that led him to suicide,1 The other banks in the city .are in no way affected, and thefr depositors do not entertain anvfear and are mak ing no run. Mr. Ullman was one of the most prominent business men in that sec tion of tho 6tate. He was president of the Oglethorpe and of the Brunswick Brewing at d Ice Company, was a mem ber of the Arm of Mayer & Ullman and a stockholder in many other corpora tions. The officials of the closed bank 6ay that depositors will be paid dollar for dollar, Ullman's life wa insured for $G6,- 000. The only comjiinies and amounts known at present re the New York Life, $'23,000; Pennsylvania Mutual, $25,000 ; Mutual Life, $10,000 ; Ameri can Legion and Honor, $5,000, TO GO FROM GEORGIA As Delegates to an Interstate Con- vention at Chicago. Governor Northen is called upon to appoint a numler of delegates to an Interstate convention at Chicago. Governor Nelson, of Minnesota, has called upon all the governors of the country to appoint ten delegates to go to Chi?a go on the 5th of June to at- tend an interstate convention, puritvse of which-is to put down the tho coal combination and. other offensive trusts that may come under popular condemnation.

WASHINGTON GOSSIP; Happenisn Iron Day to Day in lis ; National Capital Appointments in the Various Depart- menU Other 5otes of Interest. Comot roller Eehels on Monday ap pointed William C. Niblack receiver of the Columbia National bank 01 Chicago. . It is coiner to cost about S7.000 to net the Soanish caravels from 'New JL - , York to Chicago, unless the navy de partment manages to get the towing companies to abate the charges. Secretarv Herbert has announced -----that the policy of the navy depart ment in future will le to relieve the officers who have held fleet commands for over three years and give the other j officers an opportunity to see the ad- J mirals pennants over, their own squad rons. . The list of foreign nations represen ted at Washington has been increased by the establishment of a Siamese le gation. Phra Suriya, the secretary of the Siamese legation at London, has been designated by his government to act as charge d'affairs ad interim. He is at present in the city and will rep resent Siam until such a time as a min ister may be appointed. The president has decided to appoint Mr; Kerr Craig, of Salisbury, N. C, third assistant postmaster general. Mr. Craig is one of the strongest law yers in North Carolina. He onee re ceived the nomination for congress, but declined it. Mr. Craig is Senator Ransom's personal friend. All the North Carolina delegation, however, endorsed and urged him upon the president. The free gold ih the treasury Mon day, according to the treasurer's book, is $2,240,000, but this does not take into consideration the gold shipped from New York last Saturday. When this issubtracted the gold reserve of $100,000,000 will still remain intact, but the margin will be thin. The week opened with large receipts, and it is probable that the debt statement on June 1st will make a better exhibit" than the May statement. The department of agriculture has received advices from Copenhagen, Denmark, to the effect that Mr. F. An derson, a large importer of food pro ducts m that city, has sent an order to the United States for a considerable consignment of California canned and preserved fruits. This, the depart ment is informed, is one of the imme diate results of the recent corn banquet given by the agent of the agricultural department at Copenhagen. Assistant Secretary Hamlin has been informed of the arrival at Portland, Ore. , on Saturday, of the steamer Danube, which plies between Chinese and American ports, wifh 500 Chinese on board. Smallpox was reported as being -prevalent- among the Chinese. Mr. Hamlin has instructed the collec tor at Portland .to confer with Dr. Stoner, the health officer, and to see that quarantine regulations were strictly enforced, also as to the entry into this country of Chinese. The president, on Friday, appoint ed Kerr Craige, of North Carolina, to be third assistant postmaster general, vice A. C. Hazen, of Pennsylvania ; John G. Brown of Idaho to be registrar of the land office at Blackshot Idaho ; George R. Young, of New Mexico, to be registrar of the land office at Ros well, N. M. ; John W. Jones, of Idaho, to be -receiver .of.', public moneys at Blaekfoot, Idaho; William H. Cros well, of New Mexico, to be receiver of public moneys at Roswell, N. M. Assistant Secretary Curtis, of the treasury department, has been called upon to decide whether a Chinese sa loon keeper is a laborer or merchant. A Chinamen engaged in the saloon business left New York for a visit to his home in China about six months ago, and has now returned. He was refused entrance, and the case has been transferred to Washington for final decision. It may reach Attorney General Olney before the matter is finally disposed of. Saturday tho Chinese minister, at tended by the official interpreter of the legation, called at the department of state and they were immediately shown into the secretary's private room where a consultation ensued. lasting nearly half an hour. When Secretary Gresham was asked for in formation upon the subject he said that of course he could not repeat vhat passed between the Chinese min-ist-1 and himself, but that )ie did feel that he could safely declare that there was now no reason to fear any trouble or outbreak eithr in the Uuited States or in China, growing out of the Chi nese law. In certain quarters, some questions has been raised as to the competency of Mr. Blount to discharge the duties of United States minister to Hawaii, owing to the ' jfPculiar circumstances surrounding his appointment, which, of course, involve the validity and force of all that he has done. Inquiry at the department of state es tablishes clearly the fact that there, at feast no doubt is was precipitated by a bondsman for Warren Si Co., with the Colombia Na tional, notifying the board of trade that he would no longer ainree to ideminify traders against losses on margins itceasMoas by the fluctuations in the market. The Swiss exhibit in the great man ufacturers an! liberal art building at the World's fair is temporarily closed. James Pertnound, Swiss commis sioner, claims that his government has been treated with indignity by the United States customs ofScers and he ordered the Swine section to be closed J until the minister of Switzerland Washington, who? has been notified has obtained - satisfaction. Saturdy afternoon P. B. Nemitz, the agen of thirty Swiss exhibitors, was afested and two custom officers were put in charge of the exhibit, which clos ed by them. f Another fire broke out ,m Saginaw, Mich., Monday night. J The flames started in the Union hotel on Frank lin street. On the same block is loca ted the International hotel. Across the street is the large livery barn of Packer & Roberts, and on the other corner the Marshall house, a large brick structure. The wind was blow ing fresh and everything was right for a big conflagration. By hard work the fire was confined to the Union hotel, McGugan's livery stable and a wooden structure that was vacant. The loss will not exceed $8,000, and is partially insured. - TRADE TOPICS. Dnu & Co- Report Business as Xot so Good. R. G. Dun Co.'s weekly review of trade says: Stocks have rallied from the extreme depression, but business shows no substantial improvement. The distribution of products to final consumers is rather less encouraging, though the weather has been generally more favorable, and at some points helps the retail trade. Wholesale bus iness and production shows each week more hesitation with regard to the crops next fall, the possibilities of the tariff changes and money uncertain ties. Some large failures and many of minor importance show the effects of the increasing stringency in money markets, and while money is com paratively easy at New York, the pressure at other points has increased.. Almost everywhere collec tions are slow and doubt about the fu ture affects new undertakings, al though the present volume of trade, based upon past orders, is remarkably strong. The money position is easier than for some wreks past, but exports of gold have notably increased. Ex ports of products in April were in value only $60,612,680, a decrease of more than $15,300,000, while imports were 84,001,092, an increase of $8,600,000. Excess of imports for the month was $24,378,412 and for four months of th current year $86,233, 913. In two weeks in May exports have been but slightly decreased while imports have been $6,200,000 greater than last year. In such conditions, it is not strange that a large amount of gold has gone abroad this week and $2,250,000 has been ordered for ship ment. The extraordinary bank fail ures in Australia, involving deposits already amounting to more than $420, 000,000, of which over $125,000,000 was due to British depositors, caused much realizing on- securities and merchandise, the effects of which are felt in American markets. Neverthe less, stock has been decidedly stronger this week with healthy American buy ing. Chicago reports improved retail and factory wholesale trade, with liquida tion and lower prices for local securi ties and slow collections; eastbound rail shipments are larger, but wheat is at the lowest price for thirty years. Milwaukee trade improves, but money is very tight. St. Paul reports fair trade with money close. At St. Louis trade is satisfactory. At Kan sas city trade is fair with money closer. At St. Joseph trade is improving, but at Denver business is slow. At Louisville the money market has im proved. At KnoxvUl6 Trade is Slug gish. At Memphis quiet and at Nash ville somewhat better. At Augusta there is no improvement. At Colum bus trade is a little off and money tight, but at Atlanta business is satis factory. Macon reports moderate trade, New Orleans reports a quiet trade with much apprehension of floods ; cotton depressed ; sugar weaker, and money in increased demand. Wheat 1 1-2 cents lower with sales of 23, 000,000 bushels for the week. Corn l-8c and oats l-2c lower. Pork pro ducts slightly higher and cotton un changed. While the great industries are jell employed thus far, orders for the future are growing more scanty. The iron trade is weaker, southern forced sales depressing the price. No im provement is seen in bar iron, Pitts burg having taken contracts at amaz ingly low prices, while structural iron is lower than ever. Business failures number 247 in the United States against 166 for the same week last year and fourteen in Canada against twenty-three last year. A DISASTROUS STORM Sweeps Tlirengli Ohio Causing Irrc- parable Dmaj to .Property. j The worst fctorni ever known visiter f ConneaUj Ohio, and vicinity Tuesday ' night. Communication ecst and south I was entirely cut off by destruction of j bridges. The niekle-plate bridge at j Conneaut is undermined and has been condemded. No trains are running on J the road. The Peach street bridge j at Erie went down shortly after the j. passage of the passenger train Tuesday evening. The lake-shore docks at Ash j tabula are six feet under water, and sixteen vessels are likely to be driven i into the lake. A Uattery of rife Boilers Explode. A battery of five boilers at Beaver miUs, situated at Keene, N. H., ex ploded at 1 o'clock Monday, badly wrecking the building and killing Herbert G. Holton and Lewis Starkey. Frank Droulette, fireman, and George H. Carpenter were seriously injured. Gregory Carpenter, Michael Roach, George W.4 Piper and William Clark were also hurt. ' It is not improbable chat others are under the large pili of bricks and other debris. THROUGHOUT SOUTH. - . - . Soles el Her Pngr&ss and Prosperity Briefly Epitomized And Important Happenings from Day to Day Tersely Told. The Citizens' bank of Johnson City, Tenn., made a general assignment J Saturday. Assets $78,000, liabilities $38,000. Money stringency 13 given as the cause. An order was filed in the United i States court at Savannah Monday . an- j thorizing the examination of Mrs. j Rowena M. Clarke, of Charleston, be- fore a master in chancery by the '' at- 1 torneys for President Walter G. Oak- i man, 01 tne lucnmonu lerminai. At - Charleston, Thursday, Clerk Haygood, of the United States circuit court, commenced taking testimony in the famous railroad tax cases in which the South Carolina and the Richmond and Danville roads are involved. These issues arose in May, 1892,. when the state board of equalizers assessed the properities of these roads for tax and the roads refused to pay the as sessment. A Richmond, Ya., dispatch states that in view of the recent heavy losses j by fire a representative of the South ern Tariff Association has been in Richmond for some time raising the insurance rates. On Monday he com pleted the schedule on mercantile and manufacturing property. The tariff has in all instances been increased" in some cases to double the old rates, while on residential property of "the more substantial kind a reduction has been made. Monday afternoon a tornado passed from the northwest in a southeasterly direction, about two miles north of Darlington, Miss. The track of tho tornado was about one mile in w idth and extended through the southern port of the township of Willow Springs, utterly destroying, several houses, barns and other buildings. Mrs. James Bailey was killed and Mr. Bailey seriously injured. The houses of William G. Rruze, Ed Howe and E. C. King were destroyed. Tho tim ber in the track of the tornado is lev eled. - A Savannah, Ga., special of Monday says : The Standard Oil Company has, without a doubt, absorbed the Tide Water Oil Company. It has been rumored for some time that changes were being made, and the rumor was confirmed by a statement from one of the officials in Savannah. Very little is known of the deal, except so far as the Georgia part of the concern is known. The Southern Tide-Water Oil Company was capitalized at $100, 000, backed by the Tide-Water. Pipe Company, of New York. Attorney General Martin has insti tuted a suit in the city court of Mont gomery, Ala., in the name of the state of Alabama vs. the Hartford Fire In surance Company. The suit is for the collection of the sum of $250 as fee or license under a law of the last legisla ture. The complaint sets out that the defendant is a foreign company doing business in that state without having paid the fees or license fixed by . law. The suit, it is thought, is a test case to determine the constitutionality of the law fixing the license tax. North Carolina took a new step Fri day in the way of attracting immigra tion. Representative officials of the chief railways met in conference with Governor Carr and discussed the im migration questien and the best means of attracting desirable immigrants, it being decided that immigrants from the northwest are particularly wanted. A committee was appointed to formu late the best method of obtaining these and report to the governor at a meet ing to be held next month. The plan will be to operate through the world' fair. The wholesale grocery business 0 Mayer k UJlman, of Brunswick, Ga., was put in the hands of a temporary received Monday. This waa done to protect the creditors of the firm. M. Ullman, who suicided last week, was the financier of the concern, while S. Mayer was the monied partner, but knew nothing of the books. " He is seventy-four years of age.and thought, until Saturday.he was worth $200,000,. but now says he is not worth a dollar. It appears that Ullman used the firm's name endorsing pnper for enterprises not connected with the firm, and about $284,000 in debts is in sight. Secretary Hester's weekly New Or leans Cotton Exchange report, issued before the close of business Friday, shows that the amount brought into sight for the week is 21 per cent over the seven days ending May 19th, last year, and over 18 per cent under the game time year before last. The total forhe week is 9,303 bales less than the movement from May 13th to 19th, inclusive, last year, and 7,067 less than during the same date vear before last, and the deficit in amount brought into eight for the first 19 days of May is 33,056 compared -with the same time last year, and 44,916 compared with the year before. The Sailors Indemnified. A San Francisco dispatch of Sunday says : At Mare Island navy yard the final payment of the indemnity award ed tie Baltimore sailors ha.?A?een made. Four -sailors injured in thj assault on the American marines received their recompense for indignities and injuries they received at Valparaiso. P. Mc Williams received $1,000, P. Houlihan $800, Herman Frederick $500 and George Pouter $2,500. Pouter and Houlihan sailed on the Alliance Satur day for Central America with light heads and heavy pocket-books. THE WORLD'S FAIR. Georgia Hakes a Slight Addition toller Display Visitors Colngr Early. Chicago, May 16, 1833. The more one sees of the World's fair the prouder ne ieeis that ne is an American. o other people could have built sttch a I city of aces ud snch won- derful exhibit of all that goes to mate up modern civilization. While all lands j are represented here the states surpass in almost everything. The exposition j M Sr wonder land. , ? The visitor can trace the history ol the world in going from building to UUUUJUS- IUUU ropww me uuuu-j ing in w hich electrical devices are ex hibited, is the most interesting. After looking carefully through it one can readily believe that in the course of a few years we will be doing everything by electricity. City folks who know little about the country, take a deep interest in the Agricultural building. The displays of farm products are calculated to in duce all visitors who are not farming to buy one and try it. People who are interested in county fairs ought to spend all the time they can spare here and study the way exhibits are display ed. Some of the Western states have obtained unique effects in decorating their buildings and exhibit space with grain, and especially with corn on the cob. Ohio has a railing around her spaceJn Agricultural building suppor ted by large and thick glass tubes fil led with various grains and seeds. These tubes resemble solid columns of grain and are very odd and attractive. Georgia's next state vfair can be made much more interesting than it ever has been by borrowing ideas from the Exposition. The only addition which Georgia made to her exhibit here last week was the presence of the bicycle riders from Atlanta. They were objects of inter est, being the first riders to reach here from a long distance on their wheels. Plenty more are on their way, but Durant and Howard got here first, as Atlantians boast that they always do. These young men came a round-about way. They could have saved a full hundred miles if they had come up from Chattanooera and Nashville by Evansville and Terre Haute. They j iouowea tne w estern ana Atlantic, or old state road, from Atlanta to Chatta- nooga, and then the Nashville, Chatta- ; nooga and St. Louis to Nashville, but instead of continuing along that line, for some reason they struck off in an other direction. The rock ballast which makes riding in the cars so easy and smooth is not so comfortable for bicycle riders to travel over. By the way, The General, the State road's historic engine, has been moved into the transportation building. The dis play of old engines there tells the his tory of railroad development in graph ic language. Now that the weather has become pleasant and the fair has got in full blast,, the number of visitors is grow ing every day. Hotels and boarding houses found that they could not get high prices and are very reasonable in charges. Many people from a dis tance are coming early so as to be sure that they see the fair. If cholera comes this summer the fair will proba bly close, and it is well to go as soon as possible and not run the risk of missing it. Never again in the lifetime of this generation can we expect to see iuch a magnificent exposition. ORDERS TO VETERANS In Regard to the Removal of Jefferson Davis's Remains to Richmond.

CHINA MAY RESIST The Enforcement of the Exclusion Act by Retaliatory Meainref. ". A Washington special of 'Tuesday says that the outlook for a war with China is now regarded in naval circlea as not improbable. It is believed that the empire will resent tho conclusion reached by the supreme court, and will issue a decree enforcing Strict rules against the entry of any mora Americans into China, and probably ordering the removal of our mission- . aries out of its territory under paic of forcible dejortation. Meanwhile there is danger of insurrection of Chinese against the white irami- . grants, which the imperial authorities will be unable , to check. Thehetalkej together with the outbreaks which" th attempt to enforce the Geary law on our west coast will bring about, it is . thought will put the two nations on such a footing as to make war inevita ble. The decision is a great blow to the Chinese legation here where it has leen hoped down to the last moment that the act would be declared uncon stitutional. AUSTRALIAN BANKS COLLAPSE.
