The Reported Failure OF thu press
and Tribune.
We see story flying about in the newspa.
pers that the sChicago Press and Tribune
has failed for 100000, and that its publi-
cation will be stopped
what gave rise TO this report was simplv
this !: The proprietors OF this paper. during
these hard times, found themselves obliged
to ask their creditors for an extension OF time
for the payment of their debts, which was
promptly granted. I he liabilities OF the Arm
we're contracted lily in the purchase and
Improvement of real estate prior to the 6nnn-
cial crash of August, 1857; ard il was found
impossible to sell 1t for ready cash, excert at
rnlnous sacrifice. But these pecunary dif-
hcu!ties have been satisfactorily adjusted.-
The property belonging TO the establishment
and to the members OF the firm individually.
10 worth many times the amount Of their la

gong to be "stopped" is perfectly absurd.
Such thing was never dreamed OF. The

would stop the issue Of the paper, and simply
because II has become profitable Concern.

per in the North West has so large circu.
lation, and none has more lucrative adver.

ooo. This 's exclusive Of the good will, 40
counts and patronage Of the concern. which
10 held ut larger sum. The Press and Trib.
une establishment canno. be bought for less
than $4,000.
we have been thus explicit in regard to
our private affairs, in order to remove the
false Impressions that the random rumors
hying about the papers, may have created in
the minds OF our readers.-fPress 4 Trib-
