DUNCAN, SHERMAN & CO.
Their Letters OF Credit all Right.
WHAT DREXEL. !H0RGAN& co. THINK OF
THE FAILURE, &c

New YORK, July 2S.-Wiiliam Butler Dun
can says 10 regard to persous now abroad
who bave Duncan, Sherman Il Co.'s letters of
credit: Assure all friends or such par,ies
that every arrangement has already been
made to prevent them from experiencing any
trouble. They are all right. Neither they
nor their friends have any occasion to bor-
row trouble: They are in such situation
that they eau move hither and thither pre-.
cisely the same as if nothing had happened
to u.s."
Messrs. Drexel, Morgan & Co. said to a
herald reporter 1t has been known that
Duncan, Sherman & Co. have been largely
in London being Mr.. Kitchen, of the firm OF
Collie & Co.. who placed all the cotton
shipped by the firm, making his sales of cot.
ton to arrive to spinpers in England and
on the Continent. Within the last four weeks
cotton has fallen bout three cents per pound.
Now, supposing that they had %, 900 bales In
trdnSitu-not a large amount for them, but
a heavy amount for other tirms-their loss
would be ABOUT S375,000-certainly not
enough to seHd them under; but We hear
that they are also largely interested in the
Mobile and Ohio, Atlantic aud Great West
ern, and slightly in the Erie roads,"
1t Is stated that among the heaviest losers
is the Mexican consul at this port, whose in.
dividual and consulate funds were on de-
post With the suspended firm.
On Monday last Mrs. Sarah NJ. 6. Sher'
man (widow) and William Butler Duncan,
of the firm OF Duncan, Sherman Il Co., made
4 transfer of real estate 10 this city to A.
Duncan amounting TO 1885, 900.
BANK OFFICERS SURPRISED AT THE SUSPENSION.
New YORK, July 2s.-The President of
the State Bank Of New York. where the sus-
pended firm kept their accounts, says that
the suspension Of the firm had caused him
much surprise, as no intimation in any shape
had been given to the officers of the bank
when they opened that the suspension was
contemplated. He thought he could say that
bis bank held some 100000 or 100000 in
securities of Duncan, Sherman & Co.. all of
which was available stock.
THE EFFECT OF THE SUSPENSION ABROAD.
LONDON, Jolly 2S The suspension OF Dun.
can, Sherman & GO. has no appreciable ef-
feet on the general market here. ..
LONDON, July 2S.-A dispatch from Paris
says the failure Of Duncan, Sherman & Co.
has spread CONSERVATION among the Ameri-
| cans in that city. The Rothschilds gave no
| tice early to-day that they would not honor
the credits of the firm. They even attempt
ed to recover moneys which were paid to-day
at their house before it was aware Of the
failure. Their agent took gentleman VINO
refused to refund before Minister Wash
| burue, who supported the latter in bis refu.
sal TO refund. The feeling among the Ameri
cans is very bitter.

IN THE HOUSE os COMMONS
this afternoon Sir Charles AdderIy, president
of the, Board of Trade, introduced bill fur
tber TO empower the Board OF Trade 10 pre-
vent unseawortby vessels from sailing. In
presenting the measure he stated that Mr.
PIimsolfs bill was not acceptable to the Gov.
erpment because it was based on the wrong
principle. :,
Here he was interrupted by cries of No."
Continuing his remarks, he said "The bill Is
also objectionable because beside Furnishing
offenders it actually takes upon itself the con-
duet OF the marine service. The act of 1872
already empowers the Government to stop
unseaworthy ships. Since then 95o vessels
bud been stopped, Of which 5l5 were found
uuseaworthy. The present bill was intend
ed to strengthen the Executive, facilitate
more rapid and direct action, and provide
sufficient number Of officers to eiffctually
detain unsea worthy ships. It also allows
fourth part OF the crew 20 demand survey.
Finally, it is merely an earnest OF 1uller
legislation next session."
Mr. Sullivan thought the load-lne proVi.
sion for slowing grain should be engrafted
in the bill.
Mr.. Roebuck denied that the bill would
satisfy the country. lie advocated contluu-
ing the consideration of Mr.. Plimsolps bill.
Other members followed, more or less cen
suring the bill, while wshngto eXtricate the
Government from It's difficulty.
Finally the bill passed its first reading.
Tue secon1 reading is fixed for Friday morn'
ing.
