and Sheppard Monday, No. 60 Wall
street, were Directors in the New
Warehouse and Security Company,
and also of the Missouri, Kansas and
Texas Railway Company, now in
course of construction. They had in
vested so heavily in this road and else
where that their large resources and
excellent credit could not carry them
through, and they, therefore, obtained
loans from the Security Company on
stock and funds of the latter and other
corporations.
The Warehouse and Security Com
pany, however, had a large amount Of
paper i'm circulation, which was about
to mature, and unless some of the
loans advanced to Skiddy and Monday
were laken up, they could not meet
their obligations. At a meeting of the
Directors il was resolved to suspend
temporarily. A meeting of the credi-
tors will take place on Thursday to
tako action.
