SAN FRANCISCO, April 9.
A meeting of creditors OF Isaac
Friedlander will not be held before
next Wednesday. Mr.. Friedlander
was i'll yesterday, but Is to day in his
Office as usual. There is no truth in
the statement hat he feels aggrieved
at the actio on Of the Nevada Bank.

Nevada Bank are amply secured in
land and wheat for all be owes them.
Dresback is not a creditor to the ex-
tent Of $500 900, or anything like that
amount. Mr.. Friedlander has no
ships chartered TO arrive, nor any on
the spot. He has only about 1000 tons
of wheat unsold. 1t is not anticipated
that the suspension will bring any one
