Owinsr to the absence of the president the business of the First National Bank of Albion is suspended by order ot the Board of Di- rectors nntil an examination can be had of it affair. It was ascertained that President A. 8. Warner departed from Albion last Wednesday, taking with him the combi nation of the inner safe, and it is likely hi absence will continue lor some time, l he condition of the bank cannot be ascer tained nntil a thorough examination is made and the safe opened. Great excite- ment prevail in the village, as it is. feared the depositors will lose heavily. It is learned that early in 1879 Koswell Bur rows, one of the wealthiest men in West ern New York, died, leaving an estate valued at $5,000,000 to $10,000,000. The executors were his wife, bis son, "Win. K. Burrow, his son-in-la- Alexander Stuart and A. H. Warner, and it is thought there has been considerable crookedness in the management of this estate on the part of Warner, and fear of exposure and prosecution caused him to leave home. . Warner, since 187!), has had almost Sole charge of. the estate. He has speculated in- - stocks, and is supposed to have lost considerable money in Wall street some time ago. Efforts were made in the court to oust mm a executor, ana a legal decision to tin's effect was rendered Monday. Nothing is known as to how much of the estate is left. Warner, president i irst National Bant, left town August 13th, stating tbat he was gome to St. Catharine, and Irom there would proceed to New York, be being the only person in possession of the combina- tion to lock the inner vault. The exact condition of the affairs of the bank is not known, but there is no donbt in re- gard to the ability ol the bank to pay de positors. The door to the inner vault win be drilled The bank exam- iner, here in July, reported the bank to be all right in hi accounts and other matters. Warner was executor ol the estate of Kos well Barrows, amounting to several rail-lio- n dollar. Mr. Burrows died in 1879 and the executors have ' never ' filed an inventory or made any statement in re- gard to the affairs of the estate up to the present time. W. K. Calkins, ol Uochester, and late of Boston, was some time ago . employed by W. R. Burrows one of the heirs, as eonnuential business agent, and filed a petition in the eurroga'e oitice of Orleans county for an action to compel them to file an inventory of the estate. An order was issued for that pur pose, making it necessary for a filing on or before August 18th, but Warner not filing an inventory, the surrogate issued an order revoking the letters testamen- tary issued to '; him. - Investigation shows that Warner has -- disposed- of his property here as follow: Real estate to Wi A. Parinly for $2500. by deed dated July 2tith; his residence to Alex Fyather, for $5000 and certain indebtedness; two deed, dated Auaust 5th. to G. A.

To tht Editor of the Appeal: V The article which nave recently ? ap peared in the Ari'Kjo-- , on the subject ol women's work, are very interesting. The Question wby women are paid less than men lor the same amount and grade 01 work is a complex one, but it may be gen' erallr resolved in the concrete fact that women take smaller pay because they cannot help themselves. The world, with its multifarious occupations, is open to man: he tan go where he will, and may turn his hand to anything. It is different ..i 1 1 - 1 wltn woman : ner spnere is circumscriDeu, her limited. If she desires to take a place behind a sales-counte- r, she must take it at a reduced price. the amount' of reduction depending entirely on her necessity. Competition forces the merchant to cut down his ex penses, and he does cut them down wherever it is possible. If Mr. Menken obtains the services of his saleswomen at a low price, Mr. Lowenstein must do the same or close his doors. If one clothing merchant or manufacturer in a spirit of liberality raises the wage 01 his work women and pat the additional expense on the cost of hi clothing, the goods will remain on his shelves, for he can no long er compete with the man who keeps wages down to starvation prices. Whether merchant may or may not increase ' his wattes and still have a satisfactory margin for profit la a question not now being con aidered. No woman who accepts a certain sum as monthly wage has any nght to comptiu of personal injustice If (here are other women equally capable ready and anxious to take the position if she declines it. The case is somewhat differpnt when the employes of the government or of a mu nicipa! corporation is oonsidered. Here there is no positive That executive officers in trust positions should desire in every reasonable way to reduce the expenses of the government, is emi- nently proper, but that a female or a female government clerk should bo paid a . smaller wage than man for . doing the same amount and kind of work is aimolv shame and a disgrace. The fact that there are so many women ready to till any vacancy behind the counter is anomalous; indeed, it is always anomalous that there should be willing bands and no work offered. In this instance the labor re- quired of these persons is unsuited to their physical constitutions. No would admit that a service which MEMPHIS requires a woman to be cm her feet for ten hours a day, in all seasons .and under all the conditions peculiar b females, can possibly be a good thing or add anything to the prospective health, wealth or a'v-i- na cf f utr genoratior I aie wideawake (6ee for their services. They are not only clerks and saleswomen, bvt they tel- ephone and telegrai h, and they are begin- ning to besiege the courts as laVyer and the hospitals as physicians. I if fa' t they turn their attention in every direction except the one for whit h they are best fitted; for which they are destined by na- ture, and in which no from man can disturb them that is, the direc- tion of domestic service. In the South, before the war, all domestic positions were filled by slaves, and to this day do- mestic service is regarded as a species of slavery ; it is still performed by colored people; yet these colored people are as free a any female clerk in America: perhapB more so, for while the latter is bound down by iron rules as to hour of labor, the former do pretty much as they please. It is strange that people object so strenuously to the word servant, when it is a fact that every em- ploye, no matter what his station, is a ser- vant. The South needs good domestic. The best to be had now are women out ef the cotton field, rough, rude, incapable and unreliable. It is difficult to see where would! be the hardship, still less the degradation, when one woman makes a formal contract to pay certain wages and furnish certain perquisites to another woman, who on her part contract in an equally formal manner to do certain things in the ordaiary course of domestic service. - For a realty capable, willing and cheer- ful domestic, there are y thousands of families in cities and in the country who would gladly furnish a comfortable room with furniture, fuel and lights, and an abundance of precisely the same kind of food the families themselves use, also wages sufficiently large to enable her to show her savings at the end of the year lavorably witii those of the best paid sales woman in .Memphis, for the latter has not only to clothe herself on what would be regarded as ridiculously extravagant in the other, but also to pay for rent, board, fuel and lights, and also to be docked for every moment that she is absent from the tread-mi- ll during the working hours. Some may say that the position is undesir- able because t he domestic is not permitted to eat at the table or sit 111 the parlor ot the employer. I have yet to learn that air. lxwenstein's female clerks mess with that gentleman's family, or that Mr. Men ken's salesladies receive their beaux in the Menken parlors. Superficial thinkers may think that the possibilities of marriage are in favor of such as women most affect, but it is a mistake. worthy,- industrious men do not seek wives among those employed in domestic servi e, because those positions are occu pied by such worthless tramps a have been described. If modest women of in telligence filled these place and honestly earned their wages; there would be no lack of men in search of them, desirions ol obtaining wives who exhibit such noble resources for and e. If women in search of occupation knew their own interest, they would turn their attention to domestic service, and once qualified and familiar with the duties, they need fear no competition, but might demand all reasonable concessions as to time, . and that the most generous would grant. We teel no attachment for nor interest in the female tramp who accepts a position in our service for no other obje t than to rob ns in order te feed and support a lazy gang of vagabonds who hang on her ser- vices, but there is no reasonable conces- sion that we would not cheerfully make for the advantage and comfort of a lady who would not only undertake to do our work, but do it in a cheerful, pleasant, in- telligent manner. j. b. c.

He says in part that this is the most serious outbreak that has occurred for a long time, and unless prompt action is taken to stop it the Jersey cattle interest in the West will be ruined, and tue beyond control.

Prices higher than last year when the crop was very heavy in the great shipping counties. Many farmers will either have to sell stock or buy bay. Cattle will therefore be somewhat lower than one year ago.

rectors nntil an examination can be had ofit affair.

It was ascertained that President A. 8.Warner departed from Albion lastWednesday, taking with him the combination of the inner safe, and it is likely hiabsence will continue lor some time, l hecondition of the bank cannot be ascertained nntil a thorough examination ismade and the safe opened. Great excite-ment prevail in the village, as it is. fearedthe depositors will lose heavily. It islearned that early in 1879 Koswell Burrows, one of the wealthiest men in Western New York, died, leaving an estatevalued at $5,000,000 to $10,000,000.The executors were his wife, bisson, "Win. K. Burrow, his son-in-la-

Alexander Stuart and A. H. Warner, andit is thought there has been considerablecrookedness in the management of thisestate on the part of Warner, and fear ofexposure and prosecution caused him toleave home. . Warner, since 187!), has hadalmost Sole charge of. the estate. He hasspeculated in- - stocks, and is supposed tohave lost considerable money in Wallstreet some time ago. Efforts were madein the court to oust mm a executor, anaa legal decision to tin's effect was renderedMonday. Nothing is known as to howmuch of the estate is left.

Warner, president i irst National Bant,left town August 13th, stating tbat he wasgome to St. Catharine, and Irom therewould proceed to New York, be being theonly person in possession of the combina-tion to lock the inner vault. The exactcondition of the affairs of the bank isnot known, but there is no donbt in re-

gard to the ability ol the bank to pay depositors. The door to the inner vault winbe drilled The bank exam-iner, here in July, reported the bank to beall right in hi accounts and other matters.Warner was executor ol the estate of Koswell Barrows, amounting to several rail-lio- n

dollar. Mr. Burrows died in 1879and the executors have ' never ' filed aninventory or made any statement in re-gard to the affairs of the estate up to thepresent time. W. K. Calkins, ol Uochester,and late of Boston, was some timeago . employed by W. R.

FU0M THEEmployment for Women.

To tht Editor of the Appeal: VThe article which nave recently ? ap

peared in the Ari'Kjo-- , on the subject olwomen's work, are very interesting. TheQuestion wby women are paid less thanmen lor the same amount and grade 01work is a complex one, but it may be gen'erallr resolved in the concrete fact thatwomen take smaller pay because theycannot help themselves. The world, withits multifarious occupations, is open toman: he tan go where he will, and mayturn his hand to anything. It is different

wltn woman : ner spnere is circumscriDeu,her limited. If she desiresto take a place behind a sales-counte- r,

she must take it at a reduced price.the amount' of reduction dependingentirely on her necessity. Competitionforces the merchant to cut down his expenses, and he does cut them downwherever it is possible. If Mr. Menkenobtains the services of his saleswomen ata low price, Mr. Lowenstein must do thesame or close his doors. If one clothingmerchant or manufacturer in a spirit ofliberality raises the wage 01 his workwomen and pat the additional expenseon the cost of hi clothing, the goods willremain on his shelves, for he can no longer compete with the man who keeps wagesdown to starvation prices. Whethermerchant may or may not increase ' hiswattes and still have a satisfactory marginfor profit la a question not now being conaidered.

No woman who accepts a certain sum asmonthly wage has any nght to comptiuof personal injustice If (here are otherwomen equally capable ready and anxiousto take the position if she declines it.The case is somewhat differpnt when theemployes of the government or of a municipa! corporation is oonsidered. Herethere is no positive Thatexecutive officers in trust positions shoulddesire in every reasonable way to reducethe expenses of the government, is emi-nently proper, but that a female

or a female government clerkshould bo paid a . smaller wage than

man for . doing the same amountand kind of work is aimolvshame and a disgrace. The fact that thereare so many women ready to till anyvacancy behind the counter is anomalous;indeed, it is always anomalous that thereshould be willing bands and no workoffered. In this instance the labor re-quired of these persons is unsuited totheir physical constitutions. No

would admit that a service which

I aie wideawake (6eefor their services. They are not

only clerks and saleswomen, bvt they tel-

ephone and telegrai h, and they are begin-ning to besiege the courts as laVyer andthe hospitals as physicians. I if fa' t theyturn their attention in every directionexcept the one for whit h they are bestfitted; for which they are destined by na-ture, and in which no fromman can disturb them that is, the direc-tion of domestic service. In the South,before the war, all domestic positionswere filled by slaves, and to this day do-

mestic service is regarded as a species ofslavery ; it is still performedby colored people; yet these coloredpeople are as free a any female clerkin America: perhapB more so, for whilethe latter is bound down by iron rules asto hour of labor, the former do prettymuch as they please. It is strange thatpeople object so strenuously to the wordservant, when it is a fact that every em-ploye, no matter what his station, is a ser-vant. The South needs good domestic.The best to be had now are women out efthe cotton field, rough, rude, incapableand unreliable. It is difficult to see wherewould! be the hardship, still less thedegradation, when one woman makes aformal contract to pay certain wages andfurnish certain perquisites to anotherwoman, who on her part contract in anequally formal manner to do certain thingsin the ordaiary course of domestic service.- For a realty capable, willing and cheer-ful domestic, there are y thousandsof families in cities and in the countrywho would gladly furnish a comfortableroom with furniture, fuel and lights, andan abundance of precisely the same kindof food the families themselves use, alsowages sufficiently large to enable her toshow her savings at the end of the yearlavorably witii those of the best paid saleswoman in .Memphis, for the latter has notonly to clothe herself on what would beregarded as ridiculously extravagant inthe other, but also to pay for rent, board,fuel and lights, and also to be docked forevery moment that she is absent from thetread-mi- ll during the working hours.Some may say that the position is undesir-able because t he domestic is not permittedto eat at the table or sit 111 the parlor otthe employer. I have yet to learn thatair. lxwenstein's female clerks mess withthat gentleman's family, or that Mr. Menken's salesladies receive their beaux inthe Menken parlors. Superficial thinkersmay think that the possibilities of marriageare in favor of such aswomen most affect, but it is a mistake.worthy,- industrious men do not seekwives among those employed in domesticservi e, because those positions are occupied by such worthless tramps a havebeen described. If modest women of intelligence filled these place and honestlyearned their wages; there would be nolack of men in search of them, desirionsol obtaining wives who exhibit such nobleresources for and

their own interest, they would turn theirattention to domestic service, and oncequalified and familiar with the duties,they need fear no competition, but mightdemand all reasonable concessions as totime, . andthat the most generous would grant. Weteel no attachment for nor interest in thefemale tramp who accepts a position inour service for no other obje t than to robns in order te feed and support a lazygang of vagabonds who hang on her ser-vices, but there is no reasonable conces-sion that we would not cheerfully makefor the advantage and comfort of a ladywho would not only undertake to do ourwork, but do it in a cheerful, pleasant, in-telligent manner. j. b. c.
