Loss OF the American Trade.

OOO-A London Banking House
Goes Down with 10, Having
Liabilities Of 100000.

LONDON, June 1.-The Aberdare iron
company has failed, with liabilities Of
seven hundred and fifty thousand
pounds. Their nominal assets are esti-
mated at nine hundred and eighty thou
sand pounds, This sum is the total val
uatiOn of their works, with those of the
Plymouth iron company, which is one
concern with the Aberdare company.
This failure involves SandersOn & Co.,
bill brokers, and Gilead A. Smith; their
liabilities ere placed at six hundred thou
sand pounds, for the greater part of
which theirscreditOrs hold the securities
OF James DawbOrn. The latter's liabili-
ties are estimated at thirty-iOur thou
sand pounds, and his assets at twenty.
five thousand pounds. The Times COM
ments on the failure Of the iron cOmpa.
nies and Of Sanderson & Co. as follows:
awe regret very much to record q
double failure, which will probably pro-
duce results similar to those which fol-
lowed the collapse Of Overend, Guerney
& Co. 1t is said the SandersOns are in
volved with the iron companies to the
extent of eight hundred thousand
pounds, and that the aggregate lisbili-
ties will amount to several millions ster-
ling"
Lster-The statement regarding the
failure Of SaDdersOn & Co. and Gilead A.
Smith, should have stated that their cred
itOrs are for the most part secure. James
DawboTn is also involved. His liabili-
ties are estimated at thjrty-fOur thou
sand pounds, and his essets at twenty
five thousand.
NEW YORK, June 1.-The EUeninq
Post says that the news OF the failure Of
the Aberdare iron company Of London,
England, causes general surprise among
the iron trade in this city. Prominent
men in the trade consider it q TemaTka-
bic and important failure. The AbeT-
dare iron company is very old con-
Germ. 1t hss extensive factories in Lon
don, where it has, for many years, turn
ed out thousands Of tons Of railroad iron.
The company hes done but little for
year or two pest. The American de-
mand fell off entirely, and the cOnti-
mental trade was very much lessened.
Then there have been numerous pro-
tTacted strikes, which have caused an
nOying and expensive delays in the full
fillment of orders. A strike took place
recently, which lasted five or six months,
and it is believed that this LIST Interrupt
ton hes hestened the downfall of the
company. 1t is not thought the failure
will affect the iron trade here. The
failure of Sanderson & Co., leading
bankers in London, the firm which
failed in 1857, but afterward recovered
its business and standing, will doubt
less cause much distress in many house
holds throughout the kingdom. Like
Overend, Gurney & Co., they held q
vsst number Of small deposits, and their
failure to the extent Of eight hundred
thousand pounds will be most painful
result of this complicated business dis

AT the time the war broke out the
wheat trade was beginning to assume
important proportions in this city. This
season there are again appearances that
deserve the attention OF our business
people. We are informed by the secre-
tary 81 the chamber Of commerce that
IN the district adjoining Memphis full
-v0 millions Of bushels Of wheat will he
raised this year. In the west the supe-
nor quality OF Tennessee wheat is well
known, and it has the advantage ofget-
ting into market before any other kind.
OuE merchants should be wide awake to
the importance Of these facts, and when
the wheat comes into the market the
growers should receive every encourage
ment i'm their enterprise. We hope
every merchant in Memphis will at
once perceive the importance Of the SUBJ
