ond and the Fifth-looked WE'LL though
meagre In numbers In marching the
''vets," as the boys OF the Filth are familiary
called, were especially admired, but 1t must be

moment that the bands began to play the streets

Suspension Of George II. Grinncll g. Coz
At the stock Exchange yesterday the announce
ment OF the suspension OF George b. Grinnell Co.
was made This firm, like many others, had been
making strenuous efforts OF late to meet It's obli-
cations: but the dificulty OF negotiating loans and
obtaining the wherewithal forced 1t to collapse.
In the morning the firm was served with an order.
issued by Judge Blatchford, OF the United States
Court in Bankruptcy, for them to show cause why
they should not be declared involuntary bank
rupts Mr. Henry Meyers at whose petition the
order was granted, was q customer OF the
house and the payment of balance to his
credit was refused. Last July the firm,
G.. B. Grinnell. was dissolved. and new firm,
which was a special partnership, was formed
under the name OF George Bird Grinnel 90. The
parties composing the general partnership OF g. b.
Grinnell & Co. constituted the reformation OF the
partnership OF George Bird Grinnell Co., MIR. G.

order issued by Judge Batchford for the firm to
show cause why they should mot Dc az & t IN
inst, and in the meantime all creditors OF the
finn are enjoined against selling any securities
which may belong to the firm against which the
proceedings are brought. 1t was not generally
understood in the early part OF the day
exactly what the proceedings were, so that prices
fell on the supposlron that suspension involved
q forced sale OF large amounts OF stock. The Gov
erning Committee OF the Stock Exchange held .
meeting In the afternoon, at which Mr. Grlnneu at

clined to answer the questions put to him. There

dissemination OF the better feeling which Is gain
ing ground, and who have helped to press this and
other firms to the wall came In for some lively
denunciation. The fourteenth section OF the Bank-
rupt law applies TO the case and there Is probably
no relief TO the firm other than to be put IN bank
ruptcy and have an assignee appointed who Will
have the right to sell the securities.
