Rumors of failures and defalcations
sent stocks down on the run in Wall
street yesterday. The share market de-
clined heavily. The New Jersey South
ern Railroad company was said to be
insolvent. 1t was rumored that two
million five hundred thousand dollars
worth of the Lake Shore bonds had
been stolen, and that there was heavy
defalcation. The allegations about the
Lake Shore were denied, but the story
had depressing effect on the money
market. Rumor also asserted that o
Broadway bank was embarrassed, but
it was finally ascertained that this was
lie that had been invented for stock
broking purposes. To add variety to
the rumors of failures it was said that
one of the largest manufacturing firms
in the world, having immense factories
in Rhode Island, had failed for a sum a
trife less than the British national
debt. This, upon proper inquiry, also
proved to be base report. Later,
the price of stocks rallied, and shares
sold at Thursday 's'rates. The improve
ment is attributed to several causes :
it was officially announced that Wander
bilt had arranged to settle that trifing
loan of 81, $780, 900, by giving his notes
secured by Harlem stock at ninety.
The Union Trust company will sell
these notes, and, it is understood, re-
sumo business about the LIST proximo.
The report that Fisk & Hatch, and
having made an arrangement with their
creditors, added to the cheerfulness of
capitalists.
