Raley said he did so with great regret and that his client, Mr. Stnnfleld also regretted taking the action. He says Mr. Stanfield has declared his purpose of being as lent ent as possible with the parties made defendants but that he desires the money to which he la entitled under the mortgage. According to Col. Raley the litiga tion which threatened Dr. H. W. Coe some months ago was settled by the doctor placing the mortgage in the hands of Mr, Stanfield. Since that time he has not met the same and payments being overdue the fore closure la in order. How much loss the action taken - will work to the people of Stanfield is uncertain but from appearances the defendants stand to lose the amounts they have Invested unless a compro mise can be affected or unless they are reimbursed by Dr. Coe. Two suits were filed. One Is for the sum of $2912.60; and the sum of $290 attorney's fee; while the other suit is for the collection of $46,637.91. An attorney's fee of $4600 Is asked for.

AXOIITER STEEL MAGNATE IS DOWN ON COUNTS Birmingham, Ala., Nov. 23. Taint ed titles are at a discount in Birm ingham. J. C. Maben, president of the doss-Sheffield Steel & Iron com pany and a hard-headed man of bus iness, Is said to have given the "skid- doo" sign to Count Martio de Nascl mento of Portugal, whose marriage to Mr. Maben's daughter. Miss Eliza beth, had been set for today. The Iron magnate disagreed vio lently with the count in regard to a marriage settlement. Rumor has it that the noble, claiming at first to be actuated only by the slncerest and most disinterested affection for the fair Birmingham girl, put off his fi nancial demands until the date and arrangements for the marriage had been completed. Although the count is the scion of a family as old as the House of Bra- ganza Itself, his title Is somewhat clouded by the fact that the new Por tuguese republic has announced the abolition of all patents of nobility. Count Martio therefore haa no stand ing as a noble in his home country. It is reported here- that a large number of Portuguese nobles are now in this country or will soon come over to search for wealthy wives. Under the monarchy, the Portuguese nobil ity waxed fat and prosperous from the labor of the poor, but that condition no longer exists, and many men with Imposing titles now find themselves forced to choose between marrying American heiresses or going to work.
