the firm, he answered evasivey thatther creditors
held stocks for them, and were obliged to realize
AS to the question whether the notice TO creditors
served yesterday morning would properly interfere
with the sale Of such stocks, he Was not lawyer
enough to decide
Later IN the day. TRIBUNE reporter saw George
Bird Grinnell. He Also dsclaimed the ability TO add
anything important to previous statements. The
complications of the firm, partly caused by the legal
proceedings which eliminated in Judge Blatchfords
order dssolving the injunctons and partly by COM
plieatons with persons for whom the firm had done
business-whch complications Mr. Grinnell declined
farther to explain-had obliged them 10 go into
bankruptcy. They had hoped to be able to make
some sort of settlement, but matters so badly
confused, and the business was so vast and far
reaching and involved many interests that 1t had
been found impossible. The business of the old hrm
and OF the new, which latter was only started
September !, were so mixed together that IL
was almost impossible 10 get order out OF
the confusion. He could make no estimate at all OF
the amount the creditors would finally obtain
Everything depends on the state of the market and
the rates at which thesecurtes could be negotiated
The prospect for either might be considered favora-
bic, however, for reckoning n reasonable basis of
stock values and leaving out of account the terrible
slaughter of stocks caused by the panic the securi
little about the sales of stock under the rule. He
had received notifications from two or three firms
he could only name Woerishofier IL Co. of No. So
Exchange-pace, and Won Hoffman & Co. of No. so
Wall-st.-that they intended to sell the stocks held
by them account of Grinnell & Co. There was
arrangement as to sale between his firm and the
holders Of this stock as collateras. GTinnell d Co
had now no power TO oppose advise such sales
Their hands were tied, Everything coming TO them
must be referred 10 their lawyers. As to what the
notices to creditors served that morning fOrebode he
was not certain, as he had not seen them. His I'M
preston was that they only prohibited interference
with the estate and had nothing to do with such
sales under the rule had been made that day. lie
declined to make any additional statements about
the legal proceedings which preceded the fling OF
the petition in bankruptcy by the firm.
