holders ana proceeded 10 make few statements as to
the history OF the loan founded on inquiries which had
already been meGo by thi. committee. Tho ioan. he
said brought out in this country by Schroeder
Co at ~ and tie committee had very naturally eH'
peced that that eminent firm woad have been only 100
willing TO give them every Information respecting H.
lie had therefor written 10 the hrm asking for lnior'
nation aud especially Tor copy OF the original con
tract but a. his surprise they had declined giving any
information. and this through ,he!r solicitor lhcy
alleged thai they acted merely as agents he'srs.

clined also ard referred him 30 their solicitor. AcH he

tiol the fact being that this was Illustration OF the
old proyerb.
shareholder asked what had become Of that portion
Of the loan which remained undrsTn nj the time OF the
collapse. -.
Mr. Chamberlain would be very happy If hc could
tell. HIS belief was that II was oil divided among
three persons More be must not say. II tho commit
tees appointed their first duty would be :" obtain
all possible Information about the original management
Of the loan, and. secondly, to urge upon the United
States and part uary those OF the SOUTH tho justice
snd the necessity of recognizing their state obi
cations He had reason 10 know that the Southerners
had the best disposition toward the bondholders HIS
belle. was that tue loan had been put In the English
mar not 30 much because the money was required
for the purposes OF the 10 test the English feel
ing toward the South. Under these circumstances II
was possible that the money had been employed In a
manner which would not have been thought legitimate
underpther circumstances.
Tie resolutions were carried unanimously and
committee nominated viz. the Chairman. Mos'rs.
Harvey Western aud Phillips, with power 10 add 10
| their number.
After a few observations from Mr.. Morgan respect
ing plan which had been circulated Tor reconpg the
holders Of tho loan the proceedings terminated with
vote Of thanks To the Chairman.
